I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Songs About Rain ~

Well this town has closed down way too early,
And there's nothing to do,
So I'm driving around in circles,
And I'm thinking about you,
Today I heard you got a new last name,
Sure didn't know it was gonna hit me this way,
And the radio just keeps on playing all these songs about rain
Now there's all kind of songs about babies and love that goes right,
But for some unknown reason nobody wants to play them tonight,
Hey I hope it's sunny wherever you are,
But that's sure not the picture tonight in my car,
And it sure ain't easing my pain all these songs like,

Rainy Night In Georgia,
and Kentucky Rain,
Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again,
Blue Eyes Crying In The early morning Rain,
They go on and on,
And there's no two the same,

Oh it would be easy to blame all these songs about rain,
Well I thought I was over you but I guess maybe I'm not,
Cause when I let you go looks like lonely is all that I got,
Guess I'll never know what could have been,
Sure ain't helping this mood that I'm in,
If their gonna keep on playing me songs like,

Rainy Night In Georgia,
and Kentucky Rain,
Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again,
Blue Eyes Crying In The early morning Rain,
They go on and on,
And there's no two the same,

Oh how I wish I could blame all these songs about rain,
All these songs about rain,
Songs about rain.......

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | I Can Love You ~

I can't stop your heart from breaking,
Can't make right mistakes we've made,
Can't dry your crying eyes,
For my little angels sake,
I can't make the sun keep smiling,
Or blow away the clouds,
There's some things in this old world girl,
I can't do nothing bout,

But I can love you,
Like I've always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won't ever see me run,
I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,

Can't hold back the ocean waves,
Or stop a sinking ship,
Can't make a mountain move,
Or tell you how to live,

But I can love you,
Like I've always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won't ever see me run,
I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,

And I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,
But I can love you

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Don't Look Away ~

Desperation's causing me,
To question every single word you say,
The distance that keeps growing in between us,
Girl just leaves me so afraid,
Well you tried so hard to carry on,
But I can tell there's something wrong these days,
Well girl I've got to know the truth,
Just give it to me straight,
Don't' look away,

Don't look away,
Don't look away,
When I ask you if you love me still,
And if your gonna stay,
Don't look away,

Well I've known you long enough to know,
You're trying not to let your feelings show,
Lately when I hold you near,
I still feel I'm sitting hear alone,
This confusion setting in your mind,
Blocking all the words you mean to say,
Well girl I've got to know the truth,
Just give it to me straight,
Don't look away,

Don't look away,
Don't look away,
When I ask you if you love me still,
And if your gonna stay,
Don't look away,

Don't look away,
Don't look away
Well girl I've gotta know the truth,
Just give it to me straight,
Don't look away,
When I ask you if you love me still,
And if your gonna stay,
Don't look away

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Guys Like Me ~

Well there's no more smokey bars in California,
There ain't no wildlife left in Tennessee,
But I keep on living every song I'm singing,
And their trying to put an end to guys like me,
All that's left in Bakersfield is a jukebox,
And it's haunted by old songs and memories,
It's getting hard to find a place to play my guitar,
And their trying to put an end to guys like me,

Well, I'd like to find a place where love surrounds me,
Some town where they don't mind me hanging around,
A place where life don't move to fast,
And what you are is not a thing of the past,
Where you can land your dreams on solid ground,
Well, I'm sitting on a barstool down on Broadway,
Waiting for my turn to sing my dreams,
I'm just a California boy with my old guitar,
And their trying to put and end to guys like me,

Well, I'd like to find a place where love surrounds me,
Some town where they don't mind me hanging around,
A place where life don't move to fast,

Well, I'm sitting on a barstool down on Broadway,
Waiting for my turn to sing my dreams,
I'm just a California boy with my old guitar,
And their trying to put and end to guys like me,

Yeah their trying to put an end to guys like me

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Nothing On But The Radio ~

I sure do hope this is a long night,
Cause I've never felt one so right
Each look into your eyes I fall in,
A little more and more,
Looks like we started us a fire,
Wrapped up in flames of desire,
With every touch their burning higher,
Two shadows dancing on the wall,

With nothing on but the radio,
Feel the music playing soft and slow,
You and me and the lights down low,
With nothing on but the radio

We'll fall asleep here in the moonlight,
In tangled sheets we'll be here all night,
And when we wake up in the morning,
We might stay like this all day,
Two people meant to be together,
Two lovers dreaming of forever,
And it just keeps on getting better,
With every tender little kiss,

With nothing on but the radio,
Feel the music playing soft and slow,
You and me and the lights down low,
With nothing on but the radio

Two people meant to be together,
Two lovers dreaming of forever,
And it just keeps on getting better,

With nothing on but the radio,
Feel the music playing soft and slow,
You and me and the lights down low,
With nothing on but the radio

You and me and the lights down low,
With nothing on but the radio

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | You Don't Know A Thing About Me ~

To you I'm just the man who let you down,
The one who never gave you what you need,
It's true I wasn't always around,
Back when you were reaching out for me,
I know you think I didn't care,
You say I'm just the hurting kind,
And I know you think my heart wasn't there,
But I'm begging you to think it through one more time,

Cause you don't know a thing about me,
If you don't know how much I miss you,
And you don't know a thing about me,
Unless you know how much I need to be with you,
Well I see the mistakes I made,
The way I acted carelessly,
But if you don't know how much I need your forgiveness,
Then you don't know a thing about me,

If I could just go back and make it right,
And take the tears away you know I would,
I've come to you with no excuse tonight,
Just a prayer that I'll be understood,
You tell me that I'm never gonna change,
I'll always be the same old guy,
You think there's nothing left for us to say,
Before you write me off take a look in my eyes,

Cause you don't know a thing about me,
If you don't know how much I miss you,
And you don't know a thing about me,
Unless you know how much I need to be with you,
Well I see the mistakes I made,
The way I acted carelessly,
But if you don't know how much I need your forgiveness,
Then you don't know a thing about me,

If you don't know how much I need your forgiveness,
Then you don't know a thing about me,
No you don't know a thing about me,
You don't know a thing about me,
Well you don't know a thing about me......

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | A Showman's Life ~

A showman's life,
Is a smokey bar,
And the fevered chase,
Of a tiny star,
It's a hotel room,
And a lonely wife,
From what I've seen,
Of a showman's life,

Nobody told me about this part,
They told me all about the pretty girls,
And the wine,
And the money,
And the good times,
There's no mention of,
All the wear and tear,
On an old honky tonker's heart,
Well I might of known it,
But nobody told me about this part,

A boy will dream,
As children do,
Of a great white way,
Until the dream comes true,
And a phony smile,
In a colored light,
Is all there is,
To a showman's life,
Nobody told me about this part,

Nobody told me about this part,
They told me all about the pretty girls,
And the wine,
And the money,
And the good times,
There's no mention of,
All the wear and tear,
On an old honky tonker's heart,
Well I might of known it,
But nobody told me about this part,

But nobody told me about this part,

Nobody told me about this part,
They told me all about the pretty girls,
And the wine,
And the money,
And the good times,
There's no mention of,
All the wear and tear,
On an old honky tonker's heart,
Well I might of known it,
But nobody told me about this part,

Well I might of known it,
But nobody told me about this part

[CHORUS]
Things are tough all over
And I'm losin' badly
I wish you were still here
And I said it sadly
But if you wanna come back
Cause you need a shoulder
Things are tough all over

Guess I should count my blessings
For the life i still have
In a world of misfortune
That can happen so fast
Life size dominoes
One falls after another
Things are tough all over

Baby, if you needed me
I'd of heard by now
Well, I hope you're not turnin'
On the other side of town
Cause things are tough all over

Well, baby, if you needed me
I'd of heard by now
Well I hope you're not hurtin'
On the other side of town

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Things are tough all over
Things are though
Tough
Things are tough
Yeah, things are tough

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Best I Ever Had ~

So you sailed away into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay, love can be so boring
And nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now.

But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had.

So you stole my world, now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl leaves me down and lonely
Well send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better.

But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You dont want me back
You're just the best I ever had.

And it might take some time to patch me up inside
but I cant take it so I, I run away and hide
And I might find in time that you were always right
You're always right.

So you sailed away into a grey sky morning
Now, I'm here to stay, love can be so boring
Was it what you wanted?
Could it be I'm haunted?

But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You dont want me back
You're just the best I ever had.

You're just the best I ever had

I just got back from hell
And im standing here alive
I know it's really hard to tell
Don't know how I survived
But I cant say im doin great
But I think im doin well
The devil's gonna have to wait
Cause I just got back from hell

Well, I just got back from hell
And I guess to tell the truth
Well, I've been mad at everyone, including God and you
When you cant find no one to blame you just blame yourself
And I know I'll never be the same
I just got back from hell

Forgive me if I had any part
If I ever broke your heart in two
Forgive me for what I didn't know
For what I didnt say or do
And God, forgive me as well
Cause I just got back from hell

Well, I just got back from hell
And I need to make some plans
It's the last thing that I wanna do
But i'll do the best I can
I'm gonna learn to live again
But I think i'll sit a spell
Tell the world that i'm alive
And I just got back from hell

I cant say that i'm doin great
But I think im gettin well
Gonna let the world know im alive
And I just got back from hell
And I just got back from hell
I just got back from hell
Got back from hell

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Ring ~

I remember the smile on her face
When I put you on her finger
I felt the love in her sweet embrace
And all the happiness you brought her
I still see it all in my mind
The way she loved me
All the time

[chorus]
Ring, ring
You ain't nothin' but a thing
Yesterday we used to hold her
LIttel band of gold
With a little blue stone
I'm sure gonna miss the hand
That you were on

She'd wear you when we were together
She'd wear you when I was gone
'Cause we believed in love forever
But I guess we were wrong
Now she's found somebody new
She doesn't care about
Me or you

[repeat chorus]

Wish I could put it all behind
But I can't keep her off my mind
Oh, oh
What can I do?

[repeat chorus]

Little band of gold with a little blue stone
Oh..

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Promise Broken ~

I'm out here everyday breakin hearts along the way
I cause tears to fall and some to lose it all
This whole world would be
Better off without me
Well, I'm the saddest words you've spoken
I'm a promise broken

I'm the ballgame that you missed
I'm the calls that don't come in
I'm every poor excuse you use to cover up the truth
I tell the people that you love
That they don't matter quite enough
There's no stopping me once I'm in motion
I'm a promise broken

Disappointment, disillusion
Despair, confusion
I've seen it all in their eyes
Don't promise you will if you want
Don't say you do if you don't
It's alright to say you'll try

Well, I get pushed aside when you move on with your life
But I'll stand the test of time in your heart and in your mind
You'll think about me now and then
Wonder how your life might've been
But I will leave you never knowin
Well, I'm a promise broken
I'm a promise broken

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Nickajack Cave (Johnny Cash's Redemption) ~

Every man has to come to a crossroad somewhere along the way.
Johnny Cash came to his crossroad in a place called Nickajack Cave.

Little white pills and whiskey
Honky tonks and smoke
One night stands with his country band
Had him strung out on the ropes
Well, he cried out to Jesus
He said, "Jesus, I think I'm too lost to save."
He already had one foot inside the grave
As he stepped into the mouth of Nickajack Cave

Everything was darkness
Wasn't no light at all
Just the cold dank air and the pitch black dirt
And the spiders on the walls
Well, he laid down beneath a ledge
And curled up there to meet his judgement day
The shivering came upon him wave by wave
Well, he could feel the breath of death in Nickajack Cave

Then high above him shone a light
He never would forget
Then he heard a voice say, "Johnny Cash,
I aint through with you yet.
Get up, I aint through with you yet.
I aint through with you get Johnny Cash,
Get up."

Then he crawled out from beneath that ledge
And felt a gentle breeze
Tears and dirt smeared on his face
As peaceful as could be
Well, he knelt down upon the ground
Raised his eyes up to the light and prayed
He said, "Lord, I'll be your servant from this day."
That's how he became "The Man In Black" in Nickajack Cave

That's how he became "The Man In Black" in Nickajack Cave

Get up Johnny Cash, I aint through with you yet
Get up

Life aint always beautiful
Sometimes it's just plain hard
Life can knock you down, it can break your heart

Life aint always beautiful
You think you're on your way
And it's just a dead end road at the end of the day

But the struggles make you stronger
And the changes make you wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time

[CHORUS]
No, life aint always beautiful
Tears will fall sometimes
Life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride

Life aint always beautiful
Some days I miss your smile
I get tired of walkin all these lonely miles

And I wish for just one minute
I could see your pretty face
Guess I can dream, but life don't work that way

But the struggles make you stronger
And the changes make you wise
And happiness has its own way of takin it's sweet time

No, life aint always beautiful
But I know i'll be fine
Hey, life aint always beautiful
But it's a beautiful ride
What a beautiful ride

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | He Can't Quit Her ~

She was cool, she was hot, she was smokin' a lot
At the end of the bar
She had more than one too many buttons undone
On that blouse she wore
Starin' too long at hre lost in that Skynyrd song
Was his first mistake
And when she shot him that, "Boy you dont want none of this" look
It was way too late

[chorus]
She's like a needle to a junky, she's like whiskey to a drunk
she's like poker to a gambler, she's like a bullet in a gun
She's in his blood, he can't explain the rush
When he gest with her
Might be the death of him, but he's addicted, man
He can't quit her

Well, she'd ocme to his house and he'd tell her
She belonged just with him
She'd get up and she'd get dressed, take five hundred
No less, and then leave again
He said, "Baby, I'll take care of you, can't stand the thought
Of sharin' you, with them other guys."
She laughed and said, "Well, maybe you shouldnt call me no more then baby."
And he didn't, that first night

[repeat chorus]

She's in his blood, he cant explain the rush
When he gets with her
Might be the death of him, but he's addicted, man
He can't quit her

She was cool, she was hot, she was walkin' cross the parkin lot
With some other guy
Well, he was jealous, he was jonsin'
And he wound up on the wrong end of a fourty-give

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | What Kind Of Fool ~

I see you here, night after night
All by yourself in the blue neon light
A drink in your hand, a tear on your face
A beautiful woman so out of place
I guess somebody told you goodbye
In a million years I couldn't understand why

[CHORUS]
What kind of fool
Didn't want you
What kind of fool
Tore your heart in two
What kind of fool
Didn't do everything he could do
To hold on to you
What kind of fool

Well, I ain't no saint and I ain't no king
I don't know it all, but I do know one thing
Whoever it was that made you so blue
Never deserved a woman like you
He should be down on his bended knees
Beggin' you to forgive him please

What kind of fool
Didn't want you
What kind of fool
Tore your heart in two
What kind of fool
Didn't do everything he could do
To hold on to you
What kind of fool

One day he'll wake up
and realize the terrible truth
He'll see that he had it all
When he had you

What kind of fool
Didn't want you
What kind of fool
Tore your heart in two
What kind of fool
Didn't do everything he could do
To hold on to you
What kind of fool
Tell me what kind of fool
What kind of fool

I threw our rings into a box
Filled with broken memories and fool's gold
And I woke up again last night in this lonely bed without you to hold
And I walkeda rond this house pullin' picutres off the walls
Just like I've done a hundred times before
Makin' sure I've got 'em all

[chorus]
Makin' sure I've got the hard to find
Little things that make me tink about you
'Cause I'm tired of this house always breakin' me down, feelin' blue
No, there's nothin' left to say
I'm puttin' memories away

Well, yesterday I found your dress
I guess there's something I missed in our room
But it didnt break me down the second that I found it like it used to
With red wine and tears I've been gatherin' all the years we spent together
I need to move on
'Cause I know that you're gone forever

[repeat chorus]

No, theres nothing left to say
I'm puttin' memories away

Well, I ain't too sure about this so-called trial separation
I mean it's been three whole days
And I don't know if I can take anymore
And I know i'm the constant source of your frustration
But her I am again knockin' at your door

[CHORUS]
And I'm just no damn good, am I baby
I'm just no damn good, I know it's true
'Cause everyday I go a little more crazy
I'm just no damn good

Well, who had the bright idea to do this king of thing anyhow?
If it was me, well, then obviously
I was off the wall
Well, I don't blame you a bit for feelin' angry now
You're right, I'm wrong, I wasn't supposed to call

And I'm just no damn good, am I baby
I'm just no damn good, I know it's true

Everyday I go a little more crazy

I'm reading: GARY ALLAN LYRICS | Putting My Misery On Display ~

I live in my own world on 18 wheels
Playing music and writing songs about the way I feel
Tonight I'll play my guitar for you
I'll pour my heart out and tonight it's blue
So gather round and watch me play
I'm putting my misery on display

I was raised with the West Coast bands
I dont change for anyone I stay the way I am
I dont do this for fame, I do this for me
It soothes my soul and keeps my sanity
I'll only be here for today
Putting my misery on display

And this road it's so cold
And at times it feels so long
But I just keep moving on and singing you my songs
'Cause I dont know any other way
Putting my misery on display

Tonight I wish someone would hold me
A woman's touch and put my mind at ease
Her lips, her breaath up against my skin
Spread her wingsa nd take my body in
I'll be gone by the break of day
Putting my misery on display

And this road gest so cold
And at times it feels so long
But I just keep moving on and singing you my songs
'Cause I dont know any other way
Than putting my misery on display

I dont know any other way
Than putting my misery on display

Sittin Out here on the hood of this truck looking up
At a caramel colored sunset sky
Checkin my watch doin the math in my head
Counting back words to when you said goodbye
Well those runway lights are gettin brighter

Im just sittin' out here watching airplanes
Take off and fly
Tryin to figure out which one you might be on
And why you dont love me anymore
Right now im sittin' out here watching airplanes

I would've lied could've cried should've tried harder
Done anything to make you stay
I wonder what you'd do if you looked out your window
Saw me runnin down the runway just like i was crazy
That fence is too high so am i

So I'm just sittin' out here watching airplanes
Take off and fly
Tryin to figure out which one you might be on
And why you don't love me anymore
By now i know you're thirty thousand feet above me
But a million miles away, a million miles away
By now i know i outta act like you don't love me

But im just sittin' out here watching airplanes
Take off and fly
Im just sittin' out here watching airplanes
Take off and fly
Tryin to figure out which one you might be on
And why you don't love me anymore

Yeah im just sittin' out here watching airplanes
Go by, by, by
Im just sittin' out here watching airplanes
Baby bye, bye, bye
