Lyrics

• 1. Flat On The Floor

  (Brett James, Ashley Monroe)
  
  CHORUS:
  I’M FLAT ON THE FLOOR WITH MY HEAD DOWN LOW
  WHERE THE SKY CAN’T RAIN ON ME ANYMORE
  DON’T KNOCK ON MY DOOR
  ‘CAUSE I WON’T COME
  I’M HIDING FROM THE STORM ‘TIL THE DAMAGE GETS DONE

  BABY, BABY, BABY, BABY TELL ME WHY
  YOU GOTTA MAKE ME, MAKE ME, MAKE ME, MAKE ME, MAKE ME CRY, OH LORD
  IF I’VE TOLD YOU ONCE I’VE TOLD YOU A THOUSAND TIMES
  YOU CAN’T KNOCK ME OFF MY FEET
  WHEN I’M ALREADY ON MY KNEES….’CAUSE

  REPEAT CHORUS

  BABY, BABY, BABY, BABY TELL ME HOW
  YOU THINK YOU’RE GONNA LIVE WITHOUT MY LOVE NOW
  I DON’T KNOW WHY YOU GOTTA KEEP COMING AROUND
  CREEPIN’ UP MY STREET
  BOY, YOU CAN’T BOTHER ME

  REPEAT CHORUS

  (bridge)
  YOU AIN’T GONNA GET TO ME TONIGHT
  I’LL LAY RIGHT HERE ‘TIL IT ALL ROLLS THROUGH
  I AIN’T GONNA RAISE MY BODY
  ‘TIL THERE AIN’T NO SIGN, ‘TIL THERE AIN’T NO SIGN, ‘TIL THERE AIN’T NO SIGN OF YOU

  REPEAT CHORUS X3

• 2. All-American Girl

  (Carrie Underwood / Kelley Lovelace / Ashley Gorley)

  SINCE THE DAY THEY GOT MARRIED
  HE’D BEEN PRAYING FOR A LITTLE BABY BOY
  SOMEONE HE COULD TAKE FISHIN’ THROW THE FOOTBALL AND
  BE HIS PRIDE AND JOY
  HE COULD ALREADY SEE HIM
  HOLDING THAT TROPHY TAKING HIS TEAM TO STATE
  BUT WHEN THE NURSE CAME IN WITH A LITTLE PINK BLANKET
  ALL THOSE BIG DREAMS CHANGED….AND

  CHORUS
  NOW HE’S WRAPPED AROUND HER FINGER
  SHE’S THE CENTER OF HIS WHOLE WORLD AND
  HIS HEART BELONGS TO THAT SWEET LITTLE
  BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL, PERFECT
  ALL-AMERICAN GIRL

  SIXTEEN SHORT YEARS LATER
  SHE WAS FALLING FOR THE SENIOR FOOTBALL STAR
  BEFORE YOU KNEW IT HE WAS DROPPIN’ PASSES
  SKIPPING PRACTICE JUST TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH HER
  THE COACH SAID “HEY, SON WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM
  TELL ME HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND”
  DADDY SAID “YOU’LL LOSE YOUR FREE RIDE TO COLLEGE
  BOY YOU BETTER TELL HER GOODBYE”…BUT

  REPEAT CHORUS

  BRIDGE
  AND WHEN THEY GOT MARRIED
  AND DECIDED TO HAVE ONE OF THEIR OWN
  SHE SAID “BE HONEST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT”
  AND HE SAID “HONEY YOU OUGHT TO KNOW”
  A SWEET LITTLE BEAUTIFUL
  ONE JUST LIKE YOU
  A BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL, PERFECT
  ALL-AMERICAN

  REPEAT CHORUS

• 3. So Small

  Carrie Underwood
  Luke Laird
  Hillary Lindsey

  WHAT YOU GOT IF YOU AIN’T GOT LOVE
  THE KIND THAT YOU JUST WANT TO GIVE AWAY
  IT’S OK TO OPEN UP
  GO AHEAD AND LET THE LIGHT SHINE THROUGH
  I KNOW IT’S HARD ON A RAINY DAY
  YOU WANT TO SHUT THE WORLD OUT AND JUST BE LEFT ALONE

  BUT DON’T RUN OUT ON YOUR FAITH…..’CAUSE

  SOMETIMES THAT MOUNTAIN YOU’VE BEEN CLIMBIN
  IS JUST A GRAIN OF SAND
  AND WHAT YOU’VE BEEN OUT THERE SEARCHIN’ FOR FOREVER
  IS IN YOUR HANDS
  AND WHEN YOU FIGURE OUT LOVE IS ALL THAT MATTERS AFTER ALL
  IT SURE MAKES EVERYTHING ELSE SEEM SO SMALL

  IT’S SO EASY TO GET LOST INSIDE
  A PROBLEM THAT SEEMS SO BIG AT THE TIME
  IT’S LIKE A RIVER THAT’S SO WIDE
  IT SWALLOWS YOU WHOLE
  WHILE YOU’RE SITTIN’ ‘ROUND THINKIN’ ‘BOUT WHAT YOU CAN’T CHANGE
  AND WORRYING ABOUT ALL THE WRONG THINGS

  TIME’S FLYIN’ BY, MOVIN’ SO FAST
  YOU BETTER MAKE IT COUNT CAUSE YOU CAN’T GET IT BACK

  SOMETIMES THAT MOUNTAIN YOU’VE BEEN CLIMBIN’
  IS JUST A GRAIN OF SAND
  AND WHAT YOU’VE BEEN OUT THERE SEARCHIN’ FOR FOREVER
  IS IN YOUR HANDS
  AND WHEN YOU FIGURE OUT LOVE IS ALL THAT MATTERS AFTER ALL
  IT SURE MAKES EVERYTHING ELSE SEEM SO SMALL

  REPEAT CHORUS

• 4. Just A Dream

  WRITERS: STEVE MCEWAN
  HILLARY LINDSEY
  GORDIE SAMPSON

  IT WAS TWO WEEKS AFTER THE DAY SHE TURNED EIGHTEEN
  ALL DRESSED IN WHITE, GOING TO THE CHURCH THAT NIGHT
  SHE HAD HIS BOX OF LETTERS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT
  SIXPENCE IN HER SHOE, SOMETHING BORROWED, SOMETHING BLUE
  AND WHEN THE CHURCH DOORS OPENED UP WIDE
  SHE PUT HER VEIL DOWN TRYING TO HIDE THE TEARS
  OH SHE JUST COULDN’T BELIEVE IT
  SHE HEARD THE TRUMPETS FROM THE MILITARY BAND
  AND THE FLOWERS FELL OUT OF HER HAND

  (CHORUS)
  BABY WHY’D YOU LEAVE ME WHY’D YOU HAVE TO GO
  I WAS COUNTING ON FOREVER NOW I’LL NEVER KNOW
  I CAN’T EVEN BREATHE
  IT’S LIKE I’M LOOKING FROM A DISTANCE STANDING IN THE BACKGROUND
  EVERYBODY’S SAYING HE’S NOT COMING HOME NOW
  THIS CAN’T BE HAPPENING TO ME
  THIS IS JUST A DREAM

  THE PREACHER MAN SAID “LET US BOW OUR HEADS AND PRAY
  LORD PLEASE LIFT HIS SOUL AND HEAL THIS HURT”
  AND THEN THE CONGREGATION ALL STOOD UP AND SANG
  THE SADDEST SONG THAT SHE EVER HEARD
  AND THEN THEY HANDED HER A FOLDED UP FLAG
  AND SHE HELD ON TO ALL SHE HAD LEFT OF HIM
  OH AND WHAT COULD’VE BEEN.
  AND THEN THE GUNS RANG ONE LAST SHOT
  AND IT FELT LIKE A BULLET IN HER HEART

  (REPEAT CHORUS X2)

  THIS IS JUST A DREAM

• 5. Get Out Of This Town

  WRITERS: STEVE MCEWAN
  HILLARY LINDSEY
  GORDIE SAMPSON

  GOT IT ALL FIGURED OUT INSIDE OF MY HEAD
  THERE’S A BAG PACKED UP AT THE FOOT OF MY BED
  YOU SAY THE WORD BABY IM ALL SET
  WE’LL COVER OUR TRACKS TELL A COUPLE WHITE LIES
  MAKE SURE WE’VE GOT A GOOD ALIBI
  AND BY THE TIME THEY CATCH ON
  WE’LL BE OUT OF THEIR SIGHT

  LONG GONE BABY

  CHORUS
  LETS GET OUT OF THIS TOWN TONIGHT
  NOTHIN’ BUT DUST IN THE SHADOWS
  GONE BY THE MORNING LIGHT
  SOMEWHERE
  WE WON’T EVER GET CAUGHT EVER BE FOUND
  BABY LET’S JUST GET OUT OF THIS TOWN

  DONT NEED DIRECTIONS DONT NEED A MAP
  IF WE GET LOST I’LL BE GOOD WITH THAT
  YEAH, WE’LL FIND A WAY TO MAKE THE TIME PASS
  WINDOWS ROLLED DOWN WITH THE HEAT ON HIGH
  STARS ALL ALIGNED IN A RUNAWAY SKY
  HOLDING MY HAND AS THE MILES ROLL BY

  LONG GONE BABY

  BRIDGE
  IF WE LEAVE TONIGHT AND DRIVE FAST ENOUGH
  ALL OUR TROUBLES WILL BE JUST LIKE US
  LONG GONE BABY

  REPEAT CHORUS

• 6. Crazy Dreams

  (UNDERWOOD/DEAN/VERGES)

  HELLO, YOU LONGSHOTS, YOU DARK HORSE RUNNERS
  HAIRBRUSH SINGERS, DASHBOARD DRUMMERS
  HELLO, YOU WILD MAGNOLIAS JUST WAITING TO BLOOM
  THERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF ALL THAT
  INSIDE OF ME AND YOU
  THANK GOD EVEN CRAZY DREAMS COME TRUE

  I’VE STOOD AT THE BOTTOM OF SOME WALLS I THOUGHT I COULDN’T CLIMB
  FELT LIKE CINDARELLA AT THE BALL JUST RUNNING OUT OF TIME
  SO I KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO BE AFRAID
  THINK THAT IT’S ALL GONNA SLIP AWAY
  HOLD ON, HOLD ON

  HERE’S TO YOU FREE SOULS, YOU FIREFLY CHASERS
  TREE CLIMBERS, PORCH SWINGERS, AIR GUITAR PLAYERS
  HERE’S TO YOU FEARLESS DANCERS
  SHAKING WALLS IN YOUR BEDROOMS
  THERE’S A LOT OF WONDER LEFT INSIDE OF ME AND YOU
  THANK GOD EVEN CRAZY DREAMS COME TRUE

  NEVER LET A BAD DAY BE ENOUGH
  TO GO AND TALK YOU INTO GIVING UP
  SOMETIMES EVERYBODY FEELS LIKE YOU, FEELS LIKE YOU, JUST LIKE YOU

  I’VE MET SOME GO GETTERS, SOME DIFFERENCE MAKERS
  SMALL TOWN HEROES AND BIG CHANCE TAKERS
  I’VE MET SOME YOUNG HEARTS WITH SOMETHING TO PROVE
  HERE’S TO YOU LONGSHOTS, YOU DARK HORSE RUNNERS
  HAIRBRUSH SINGERS AND DASHBOARD DRUMMERS
  HERE’S TO YOU WILD MAGNOLIAS JUST WAITING TO BLOOM
  THERE’S A LITTLE BUT OF ALL THAT INSIDE OF ME AND YOU
  THANK GOD EVEN CRAZY DREAMS COME TRUE

  THANK GOD EVEN CRAZY DREAMS COME TRUE

• 7. I Know You Won’t

  (Steve McEwan/Wendell Mobley/Neil Thrasher)

  I know you don’t mean to be
  Mean to me
  ‘Cause when you want to you can make me feel like we belong
  We belong
  Lately, you make me feel all I am
  Is a backup plan
  I say I’m done and then you smile at me and I forget
  Everything I said
  I buy into those eyes
  And into your lies

  You say you’ll call
  But I know you
  You say you’re comin’ home
  But I know you
  You say you’ll call
  But I know you won’t
  You say you’ll call
  But I know you won’t

  I wish you were where you’re supposed to be
  Close to me
  But here I am just starin’ at this candle burnin’ out
  Still no sound
  Of footsteps on my stairs
  Or you’re voice anywhere

  You say you’ll call
  But I know you
  You say you’re comin’ home
  But I know you
  You say you’ll call
  But I know you won’t
  You say you’ll call
  But I know you won’t

  (repeat chorus)

• 8. Last Name

  Carrie Underwood
  Luke Laird
  Hillary Lindsey

  Last night I got served a little bit too much of that poison baby
  Last night I did things I’m not proud of and I got a little crazy
  Last night I met a guy on the dance floor and I let him call me baby

  Chorus
  And I don’t even know his last name
  Oh my Mama would be so ashamed
  It started off “Hey, Cutie where you from?”
  And then it turned into “Oh, no, what have I done?”
  And I don’t even know his last name

  We left the club right around three o’clock in the morning
  His pinto sittin there in the parking lot, well it should’ve been a warning
  I had no clue what I was getting into so I blame it on the Cuervo
  Oh, where did my manners go?

  Chorus

  Today I woke up thinking ‘bout Elvis somewhere in Vegas I’m not sure
  How I got here or how this ring on my left hand just appeared outta nowhere
  I gotta go, I take the chips and the pinto and hit the road they say what happens here stays here all of this’ll disappear …there’s just one little problem

  I don’t even know my last name
  Oh my Mama would be so ashamed
  It started off “Hey, Cutie where are you from?”
  Turned into “Oh no what have I done?”
  I don’t even know my last name

• 9. You Won’t Find This

  WRITERS: TOM SHAPIRO/CATHY DENNIS

  DID YOU CHECK THE TIRES
  PUT GAS IN THE CAR
  DON’T THINK YOU’LL NEED TOO MUCH ‘CAUSE YOU AIN’T GONNA GET THAT FAR
  DID YOU PACK THE GOOD TIMES
  DON’T FORGET A MAP
  JUST IN CASE THE ROUTE YOU TAKE ISN’T THERE TO TAKE YOU BACK
  
  (CHORUS)
  YOU CAN HOLD ANY GIRL THAT YOU LIKE
  FALL IN LOVE WHEN IT’S EASY AT NIGHT
  BUT YOU’LL WAKE UP WONDERING WHY
  SHE AIN’T EVER SOMETHING BETTER
  WHEN YOU’RE LOST AND YOU’VE RUN OUT OF ROAD
  FIND WHAT I ALREADY KNOW
  IN THE END CLOSE IS ALL THERE IS
  BUT YOU WON’T FIND THIS
  NO YOU WON’T FIND THIS
  
  NOW THERE’S ONCE IN A LIFETIME
  AND THERE’S ONCE IN A WHILE
  AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO IS ABOUT A MILLION MILES
  OH YOU MIGHT GET LUCKY
  WHILE THE MOON IS LOOKING ON
  BUT IN THE TRUTH OF THE MORNING THE STARS WILL BE LONG GONE

  YOU CAN HOLD ANY GIRL THAT YOU LIKE
  FALL IN LOVE WHEN IT’S EASY AT NIGHT
  BUT YOU’LL WAKE UP WONDERING WHY
  SHE AIN’T EVER SOMETHING BETTER
  WHEN YOU’RE LOST AND YOU’VE RUN OUT OF ROAD
  FIND WHAT I ALREADY KNOW
  IN THE END CLOSE IS ALL THERE IS
  BUT YOU WON’T FIND THIS

  YOU CAN HOLD ANY GIRL THAT YOU LIKE
  FALL IN LOVE WHEN IT’S EASY AT NIGHT
  BUT YOU’LL WAKE UP WONDERING WHY
  SHE AIN’T EVER SOMETHING BETTER
  WHEN YOU’RE LOST AND YOU’VE RUN OUT OF ROAD
  FIND WHAT I ALREADY KNOW
  IN THE END CLOSE IS ALL THERE IS
  OH, IN THE END, IT’S ME YOU’RE GONNA MISS
  ‘CAUSE YOU WON’T FIND THIS
  NO, YOU WON’T FIND THIS

• 10. I Told You So

  Suppose I called you up tonight
  And told you that I love you
  And suppose I said I want to come back home
  And suppose I cried and said I think I finally learned my lesson
  And I'm tired of spending all my time alone
  If I told you that I realized you're all I ever wanted
  And it's killing me to be so far away
  Would you tell my that you love me too
  And would we cry together
  Or would you simply laugh at me and say...

  Chorus
  I told you so, I told you so
  I told you some day you'd come crawling back
  And asking me to take you in
  I told you so, but you had to go
  Now I've found somebody new
  And you will never break my heart in two again

  If I got down on my knees
  And told you I was yours forever
  Would you get down on yours too and take my hand
  Would we get that old-time feeling
  Would we laugh and talk for hours
  The way we did when our love first began
  Would you tell me that you've missed me too
  And that you've been so lonely
  And you've waited for the day that I returned
  And we'd live and love forever
  And that I'm your one and only
  Or would you say the tables finally turned
  And would you say...

• 11. The More Boys I Meet

  WRITERS: STEVE MCEWAN/ GORDON KENNEDY
  

  THIS BOY HERE WANTS TO MOVE TOO FAST
  HE SEES MY FUTURE AS HAVING A PAST
  WELL, I DON’T THINK SO
  I DON’T THINK SO

  THAT BOY THERE, WELL HE’S PLAYING THE FOOL
  HE THINKS HE’S FUNNY AND HE THINKS HE’S COOL
  WELL, I DON’T THINK SO
  I DON’T THINK SO

  CHEAP DATE, BAD TASTE
  ANOTHER NIGHT GONE TO WASTE
  TALKIN’ ‘BOUT NOTHING IN SO MANY WORDS
  IT’S NOT LIKE I’M NOT TRYING
  ‘CAUSE I’LL GIVE ANYONE A SHOT ONCE

  (CHORUS)
  AND I CLOSE MY EYES
  AND I KISS THAT FROG
  EACH TIME FINDING
  THE MORE BOYS I MEET
  THE MORE I LOVE MY DOG

  HERE’S THIS GUY THINKS HE’S BAD TO THE BONE
  WANTS TO PICK ME UP AND TAKE ME HOME
  WELL I DON’T THINK SO
  I DON’T THINK SO

  CAGE FIGHTS, PLAYSTATION
  X GAMES, RAIDER NATION
  OVERSIZED PANTS WITH AN EGO TO MATCH
  IT’S NOT LIKE I’M NOT TRYING
  ‘CAUSE I’LL GIVE ANYONE A SHOT ONCE

  (REPEAT CHORUS)

  (BRIDGE)
  WHY CAN’T THEY BE LIKE THE ONES THAT MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME
  WARM AND LOYAL, OPEN AND FRIENDLY
  IT’S NOT LIKE I’M NOT TRYING
  CAUSE I’LL GIVE ANYONE A SHOT ONCE

  (REPEAT CHORUS)

• 12. Twisted

  Hillary Lindsey/Luke Laird/Brett James

  baby, you're a wreckin' ball
  crashing into me
  nothin' i could do but fall
  piece by piece you broke down every part of me that ever thought i'd never need you baby

  (chorus)
  it's twisted
  messed up
  and the more i think about it
  it's crazy but so what
  i may never understand it
  i'm caught up and i'm hangin' on
  i'm gonna love you even if it's wrong

  everybody's telling me, i'm over my head
  but they don't feel you lovin' me
  they all say that i've gone crazy maybe but it's too late now to save me I'm too tangled

  it's twisted
  messed up
  and the more i think about it
  it's crazy but so what
  i may never understand it
  i'm caught up and i'm hangin' on
  i'm gonna love you even if it's wrong
  [even if it's twisted]

  (bridge)

  it's twisted
  messed up
  and the more i think about it
  it's crazy but so what
  i may never understand it
  i'm caught up and i'm hangin' on
  i'm gonna love you even if it's wrong
  [even if it's twisted]

• 13. Wheel Of The World

  (Lindsey/Lindsey/Mayo)

  LOVE GOES OUT, OUT LIKE A LIGHT
  OUT LIKE A FLAME
  AND YOU CAN’T FIND IT ANYMORE
  JUST WHEN YOU THINK IT’S LOST IN THE RAIN
  IT COMES BACK KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR

  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  AND AROUND

  GOD PUT US HERE ON THIS CARNIVAL RIDE
  WE CLOSE OUR EYES NEVER KNOWING
  WHERE IT’LL TAKE US NEXT
  BABIES ARE BORN AND AT THE SAME TIME
  SOMEONE’S TAKING THEIR LAST BREATH

  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND

  IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
  IT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE
  AND IT NEVER EVEN SLOWS DOWN

  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD

  I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS
  I’M FLYING HIGH
  THEN I’M WONDERING WHY
  I’M SINKING ON THIS SHIP GOING DOWN
  LIFE KEEPS ON MOVING ANYWAY

  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)
  AND AROUND
  AND AROUND
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)

  IT CAN OPEN YOUR HEART IT CAN BREAK YOU APART
  AND IT NEVER EVEN SLOWS DOWN
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)
  IT’S THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD
  TURNING AROUND
  (KEEPS ON TURNING)
