In spite of constant
ridicule that I receive from friends for listening to Country music, I
find the music of Tim McGraw to be work of the first great philosophical
mind of the new millenium...Okay, well at least he's just really quotable.
Memory Lane
People ask me What you doin' son You're gonna drive yourself insane You'll never find the sunshine When you're followin' the rain |
Indian Outlaw They all gather 'round my teepee Late at night tryin' to catch a peek at me In nothin' but my buffalo briefs I got 'em standin' in line |
Ain't that
just like a dream
Runnin' wild and runnin' free We were rebels chasin' time against the wind Sometimes I long for just one night Of the way I felt back then But ain't that just like a dream It always ends |
All I Want
is a Life
All I want is a life To drink from a glass from a well that ain't dry I'm sick of the crumbs I want a piece of that pie All I want is a life

I Didn't Ask
and She Didn't Say
We said our goodbyes Swore we'd stay in touch Then we went our separate ways Knowing no one ever does

When She Wakes
up and Finds me Gone
'Cause I don't want to see me leaving in her eyes And I can't stand to watch her watch me make her cry And I don't know a right way I can do her wrong So I don't want to be here in the morning When she wakes up and finds me gone

Where the
Green Grass Grows
I'm gonna live where the green grass grows Watch my corn pop up in rows
|
For a Little
While
I laugh, everytime I start to think about us We sent that summer out in style She's gone, but she left me with a smile ‘Cause she was mine for a little while |
Honey you
Turn me on
Yeah, you cranked my tractor Ya flick my bic Woman you tripped the trigger on my thingamajig Can't explain how ya done it But, honey, you turn me on |
Seventeen
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime Don't it just fly by wild and free Goin any way the wind blew, baby Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams Rock and roll and faded blue jeans And standing on the edge of everything |
Somebody Must
be Prayin' for Me
Somebody out there must be prayin' for me Must be angels I can't see Somebody must be prayin' for me, yeah
|
Something
Like That
Like an old photograph Time can make a feeling fade But the memory of a first love Never fades away |
Please Remember
Me
When all our tears have reached the sea Part of you will live in me Way down deep inside my heart The days keep coming without fail A new wind is gonna find your sail That's where your journey starts |
Carry on
I try to walk the sunny side of the street Don’t let no shadows tangle up my feet There ain’t no troubles that we can’t rise above With a handful of faith and a heartful of love Carry on Carry on What don’t kill us makes us strong |
My Next Thirty
Years
I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age The ending of an era and the turning of a page Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here Lord have mercy on my next thirty years |
Eyes of a
Woman
What you can find in the eyes of a woman Is a reason to believe Look deep inside the eyes of a woman See the man you want to be |
A Place in
the Sun
Someday I’ll find a way to shine Leave all these rainy days behind I know there’s got to be Some place warm and bright for me I’m running out of places I can run Looking for a place in the sun |
"Everywhere"
album liner
We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go we take a little of each other.... everywhere.

The Trouble
With Never
I know how to stay carefree Let no one get a hold on me But I can't keep my hands off her There's something different about this girl |
