Bright as You

I look up at the stars, I see jupiter and mars, they shine brightly, but not as bright as you
The sun and the moon, the first hot day in june, the shine brightly, but not as bright as you
Sometimes we carry the weight of the world around, but that would never ever get you down
A firefly in a field without a care, a rocket burning up the atmosphere, they shine brightly but not as bright as you
A crash of thunder and a flash of the light, a supernova is a hulluva sight, they shine brightly, but not as bright as you

Slip into the Night

She sits right there without paying attention, with 15 guys fighting for her affection
It's alright, it aint your night, step into the light, I should have slipped into the night
You step right out on the open floor, she turns her back on you, closing the door
this place is kind of lame, can't wait to leave, so I back my car straight into a tree
Flashing lights, road block, straight up ahead, no where to turn I got an open container instead
Police in your face, can't find your ID, they tow your car, you lose your phone, and it aint for free

Hula Popper
03:23
|

She likes to chug, she even likes to wobble
She gets all twitchy when something starts to follow
She starts to quiver when she's riding in the river
She gets a thrill when you move in for the kill
It's gonna hurt with the one who likes to flirt
She's got you hooked shoulda gave a second look
She's a real heart stopper, a real hula popper
She likes to sit, think about her plan
When she does nothing it's more than you can stand
She'll hypnotize with those big dark eyes
You move in close, but something isn't right
You can jump, you can run
Hide in the trees and pray that she is done
It's too late now, she's a phony
And now your hanging now you are her trophy

The Rub

Listen hey there playing our song, that can't be right cause your long gone and after all the things that I told her, I wonder if she still lives in Sarasota
Everything was going fine, but after a while my gut was saying it was time
Leaving her sure was tough, I was free, I felt guilty, I failed someone
I love you but here's the rub, I got to leave you cause I aint in love
So I'm sleeping in a parking lot, that streetlight is blinding everywhere I park
Right now you're watching your show you got the dogs in your lap and one more to go
I love you but here's the rub, I got to leave you cause I aint in love
It's time for me to saddle up, even if it means I'm giving up

Get out of Dodge
03:47
|

Last to run, nowhere to hide, she called my bluff I gotta leave tonight
Bye bye baby gonna leave you high and dry
Ain't much fuel, ain't much order, more than my bills are gonna be under water
Aint much time, aint many options tonight
Should I go, should I stay, I never thought that question would be so grave
Get out of Dodge brother, lot of stuff coming your way
Foot on the gas, tapping the wheel, I second guess every mile, I should have went to Mobile
You better run, you better hide, you better crawl, you better try
Get out of Dodge brother or you will not get out alive

Jitterbug
03:04
|
|||
When the sky turns black, she likes to dress like that
She likes to move, with a little inflection
She'll drag you in for a closer inspection
She'll give your line a tug, she's a jitterbug
She likes to wrestle with the gators
She likes to slither just like a snake
Can it be true, maybe she's a fake
Get to close, she'll make you jump into a lake
She'll give your line a tug, she's my jitterbug

Another Chance
04:16

You want to know me but not understand
You never scold me but never compliment
You got a lot to say but never to me
Could we have a life together, you say maybe
As I'm walking out that door, is it really that bad
I'm not so sure and with a touch of your hand
I might as well give you a second chance
All it took was a cast of your glance
She answers all my questions, but never says a word
Communication is out, well haven't you heard
What about future, hell I don't know about now
If I said I like your voice, you wouldn't make a sound
Let's get up early and go for a ride
It's kind of hard when you been drinking all night
And when I ask you how did your weekend go
She asks me for the time and then says no more
