Sunshine pouring right into my window.
Cool drink of water in the summer,
Better than the other, hah, side of the pillow.

Yeah, girl, I gotta see you tonight,

And imma tattoo your name on my arm,
Baby I just wanna show you off.

You gotta boy feelin' lucky, mmm how you love me,
And you're making my heart go (tap tap)
Ticking like a time bomb, baby when the top drops,
And I'm watchin' your hair blow

No I don't wanna miss a kiss on your lips,
Yeah, girl I gotta see you tonight.
Pick you up about 8, countin' down I can't wait.

Stop, Drop And Roll

There's a two lane getaway red hot summer day
Jump into my '65 Mustang, ain't she a pretty thing?
Just like you, and it's burnin' me up, burnin' me up, burnin' me up
Yeah, tell me what I wanna hear
You're turnin' me on, turnin' me on, turnin' me on
Yeah baby let's get outta here

Do you wanna wanna, do you wanna wanna go?
Pedal on the floorboard, lay a little bit of rubber down this road
Bass bumpin' on the car door
Got a blue sky, got a fast ride, got all the time in the world so come on little girl
Whoa, all we gotta do is stop, let the top drop and roll

We can leave town right now, take it down the interstate
Just get gone, oh baby we could just get lost while the radio plays our favorite song
Well turnin' it up, turnin' it up, turnin' it up
That's just what I wanna hear
Burnin' me, up burnin' me up, burnin' me up,
Yeah baby let's get out of here

Do you wanna wanna, do you wanna wanna go?
Pedal on the floorboard, lay a little bit of rubber down this road
Bass bumpin' on the car door
Got a blue sky, got a fast ride, got all the time in the world so come on little girl
Whoa, all we gotta do is stop, let the top drop and roll

Yeah, roll down the windows, let your hair blow, let your hair blow
Yeah, roll down the windows, let your hair blow, let it all blow, let it all blow
We can leave town right now, take it down the interstate

Do you wanna wanna, do you wanna wanna go?
Pedal on the floorboard, lay a little bit of rubber down this road
Bass bumpin' on the car door
Got a blue sky, got a fast ride, got all the time in the world so come on little girl
Whoa, all we gotta do is stop, let the top drop and roll

Yeah, roll down the windows, let your hair blow, let it all blow, let it all blow

19 You + Me

It was our first week
At Myrtle Beach
Where it all began

It was 102°
Nothin' to do
Man it was hot
So we jumped in

We were summertime sippin', sippin'
Sweet tea kissin' off of your lips
T-shirt drippin', drippin' wet
How could I forget?

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down
Like the tears we cried
That day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of
19 you and me

We had our first dance in the sand
It was one hell of a a souvenir
Tangled up, so in love
So, let's just stay right here

'Til the sun starts creepin', creepin' up
Right then I knew
Just what you were thinkin', thinkin' of
When I looked at you

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down
Like the tears we cried
That day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of
19 you and me
...you and me

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful

Watchin' that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down
Like the tears we cried
That day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of
19 you and me

First week in myrtle beach where it all began..

What You Do To Me

I drive away from your house, chasin' butterflies out
Girl, I don't know how you do it

I said "Girl, you're beautiful, 'n' you already know it,
But I'll say it again and a million times after that"
You laugh and you shake your head and say "Boy, you're crazy"
Well, girl, if I'm crazy, I'm only crazy 'bout you

I was lookin' right into your eyes, right then, porch light
Flipped on and I saw your dad lookin' through the window
Hope he ain't mad

Then I helped you outta my truck,through the yard to your front door
Said "Girl, am I gonna see you again?" You answered me back with a kiss

I drive away from your house, chasin' butterflies out
Girl, I don't know how you do it
Roll the radio down, say "I love you" out loud
Man, I think I'm 'bout to lose it
Ain't my thing to jump the gun,
But I called my dad and said "She's the one"
Said "Boy, better get that ring, if you really wanna change her name"
Like a merry-go-round, got my head spinnin' round and round and round

That's just what you do, do, do, do, do, do, do to me

I picked you up for our second date, you're sure lookin' pretty
Sweet as an angel, here to save my soul
Mmm, yea, you get me high, you take me to heaven
And I get to shakin' when you put your lips on mine

It could be the best night of my life, least 'til next time
Oh yea, gotta get this right, follow all the rules and be back by 9
Pulled up to drop you off, leanin' in to sneak one more
Said "Baby, when can I see you again? How 'bout every night after this?"

I drive away from your house, chasin' butterflies out
Girl, I don't know how you do it
Roll the radio down, say "I love you" out loud
Man, I think I'm 'bout to lose it
Ain't my thing to jump the gun,
But I called my dad and said "She's the one"
Said "Boy, better get that ring, if you really wanna change her name"
Like a merry-go-round, got my head spinnin' round and round and round

That's just what you do, do, do, do, do, do, do to me
Yea, that's just what you do, do, do, do, do to me

Yea, that's just what you do

I drive away from your house, chasin' butterflies out
Girl, I don't know how you do it
Roll the radio down, say "I love you" out loud
Man, I think I'm 'bout to lose it
Ain't my thing to jump the gun,
But I called my dad and said "She's the one"
Said "Boy, better get that ring, if you really wanna change her name"
Like a merry-go-round, got my head spinnin' round and round and round

That's just what you do, do, do, do, do, do, do to me
Yea, that's just what you do, do, do, do, do, do, do to me

Can't Say No

It's seven AM baby
Trying to catch up on a little sleep
Its way to early baby
For you to be crawling all over me
Next thing you know were driving round
She's dragging me all over town
Ain't no other girl in the world that can do me like that
She knows how to work them cut off things
She knows how to get me to do about anything
How to bat those eyes, swing them hips, how to rock that cherry red lipstick
She knows I can't say no
Yeah baby thats all about all I can say
Whatever you want baby, as long as you kiss me that way
My heart of stone melts in her hands
I'm getting used to changing plans
Ain't no other girl in the world that can do me like that
She knows how to work them cut off things
She knows how to get me to do about anything
How to bat those eyes, swing them lips, how to rock that cherry red lipstick
She knows I can't say no
No to that smile
No to that kiss
No I just can't resist, Yeah
Yeah I could be out there with the boys, but as soon as I hear that little voice
I'm gone
Yeah I'm gone baby
She knows how to work them cut off things
She knows how to get me to do about anything
How to bat those eyes, swing them lips, how to rock that cherry red lipstick
She knows I can't say no
Can't say no
Can't say no
I can't say no

First Time Feeling

She was 18, all about me, grew up good on the
Tennessee river and her
Daddy didn't like me much, yeah that might have been part of the rush
I was 21, just a son of a gun rollin' like a stone I was born to run
But I never met a girl like that had me turnin' round coming right back
We were crazy, crazy in love like you've never know, she said baby don't you ever let me go

We were fast car, top down,
George Straight singin' bare feet, slow dance long hair swingin'
Under the neon sky, just watching the world go by
And we were laying by the river when the moon started drippin', finally figured out what a boy been missin'
Sinkin' into those eyes, yeah wrong never felt so right
We were small town, summertime sunset dreamin', man there ain't nothin' like a first time feelin'

Wrapped up there in a blanket, nervous kiss, hands were shakin'
Yeah we knew we were getting into, there was magic underneath that moon, driving me
Crazy, more than she could ever know, and I said baby I ain't ever gonna let ya go

We were fast car, top down, George Straight singin' bare feet, slow dance long hair swingin' under the neon sky, just watching the world go by
And we were laying by the river when the moon started drippin', finally figured out what a boy been missin'
Sinkin' into those eyes, yeah wrong never felt so right
We were small town, summertime sunset dreamin', man there ain't nothin' like a first time feelin'

Oh and the leaves fell down and the seasons changed, and that pretty little thing just moved away to
Texas I guess a part of me did too
Cause I miss her like crazy
She was my baby, take me back, take me back

Fast car, top down, George Straight singin' bare feet, slow dance long hair swingin'
Under the neon sky, just watching the world go by
And we were laying by the river when the moon started drippin', finally figured out what a boy been missin'
Sinkin' into those eyes, yeah wrong never felt so right
We were small town, summertime sunset dreamin', man there ain't nothin' like a first time feelin'

Nothin' Like You

Mmm
I remember when I first met you
Sipping coffee in a corner booth
You were twirling your hair
And I just had to stare
For a minute or two
I was laughing at your stack of books
Then you shot me that smile
Hey beautiful girl, in your own little world
And me in it

You got all of my attention
And you ain't even trying
Yeah, you're my kind of different
And I never seen nothin'

Nothin' like you
Shades on spinning in a summer rain
Dancing in the rain no music
Just the right kind of crazy, baby
Something about you
Rocking that rock 'n roll t-shirt
We're at a party dressed up
But you just doing your thing
Ain't nobody ever seen nothin' like you

When you're wearing them worn out jeans
Purple untied shoestrings
You're a light in the dark
And you're stealing my heart like a gypsy

I love the way that you kiss me
In front of everybody
So baby come and kiss me
They ain't ever seen nothin'

Nothin' like you
Shades on spinning in a summer rain
Dancing in the rain no music
Just the right kind of crazy, baby
Something about you
Rocking that rock 'n roll t-shirt
We're at a party dressed up
But you just doing your thing
Ain't nobody ever seen nothin' like you, yeah

Nothin' like you
Shades on spinning in a summer rain
Dancing in the rain no music
Nothin' like you
Rocking that rock 'n roll t-shirt
We're at a party dressed up
But you just doing your thing
Ain't nobody ever seen nothin' like you, yeah

Never seen, never seen nothin' like you
Ain't never seen anything like you
Mmm
Never seen nothin' like you

Somewhere Only We Know

Hey girl whatcha think about this, got a really good idea
Four wheel drive for the gas, whatcha think about that?
Forty miles off the map, we can get there real fast
We can just take it slow, let it roll if you wanna

Kick back, move in on the down low
Where your sun tan lights up when the stars go
Write your name on the fogged up window
Throw your feet on the dash, girl you know I'm cool with that
And it's Tom Petty Free Fall by midnight
Turn it off, turn you on when it feels right
Out here in the wide open
Let yourself let go somewhere only we know

Hey girl whatcha think about this? I really wanna kiss your lips
Gotta lot more room in the back, whatcha think about that?
Oh yeah let's get a little closer, lean in and I'll take over
We can just take it slow, let it roll if you wanna

Kick back, move in on the down low
Where your sun tan lights up when the stars go
Write your name on the fogged up window
Throw your feet on the dash, girl you know I'm cool with that
And it's Tom Petty Free Fall by midnight
Turn it off, turn you on when it feels right
Out here in the wide open
Let yourself let go somewhere only we know baby
Let it go baby, let it go

Let's park this thing 'til the morning,
I think we got a really good thing going
Whatcha think about that?
You know what I think about that

Kick back, move in on the down low
Where your sun tan lights up when the stars go
Write your name on the fogged up window
Throw your feet on the dash, girl you know I'm cool with that
And it's Tom Petty Free Fall by midnight
Turn it off, turn you on when it feels right
Out here in the wide open
Let yourself let go somewhere only we know baby
Let it go baby, let it go
Let yourself let go somewhere only we know

Parking Brake

[Verse 1:]
Dash light dripping on your sun tan skin
Radio playing that song again
Just pulling me in, hmm pulling me in
Cut off shorts and a vinyl seat
Slide all over here next to me
Let me pull you in, hmmm, let me pull you in girl

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooo, if you didn't know by now I'm crazy about you
And I know the perfect place to stop

[Chorus:]
We're smiling honey sucker on the river bank
Fireflies, sweet tea, in the summer rain
Pouring all the way, all the way. Down
Cherry red lips calling out my name
Two-ton Ford and that parking brake
Pulling the stall away, all the way. Down

Hmmm....all the way down

[Verse 2:]
Middle of the middle in nowhere now
Go ahead girl, let your hair down
Just close your eyes, it's going to be a damn goodnight
Cut off the engine, toss the keys
Ain't nobody here, but you and me
And a little moonlight
Out here on the country side

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooo, I gotta feeling that's so crazy about me too
Girl and don't you ever stop

[Chorus:]
We're smiling honey sucker on the river bank
Fireflies, sweet tea, in the summer rain
Pouring all the way, all the way. Down
Cherry red lips calling out my name
Two-ton Ford and that parking brake
Pulling the stall away, all the way. Down

Ooo yeah.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooo, if you already know by now I'm crazy about you
O tell me what you wanna do. (Ha woo)

[Chorus:]
We're smiling honey sucker on the river bank
Fireflies, sweet tea, in the summer rain
Pouring all the way, all the way. Down
Cherry red lips calling out my name
Two-ton Ford and that parking brake
Pulling the stall away, all the way. Down

Those cherry lips call my name
Yeah [x3]
All the way, all the way, all the way down. Yeah
All the way down

I Heard Goodbye

I could tell by the way you kissed my lips that day
There was something missing, something not the same
You were there, but you weren't, didn't care, didn't hurt at all
Said it was what it was, then the feeling of us was gone

I watched you fade away
But I turned my head and closed my eyes
And prayed you'd stay
And I told myself that it'd be fine
I wish I could have just said somethin', oh
When you said you needed time
I heard goodbye
Goodbye

It was way too easy to say those words you said
And the look on your face, I could tell there was nothin' left
Almost wished we were fightin', screamin', and cryin', but
Not a drop of a tear, didn't know how to feel, I was numb

When I watched you fade away
But I turned my head and closed my eyes
And prayed you'd stay
And I told myself that it'd be fine
I wish I could have just said somethin', oh
When you said you needed time
I heard goodbye
Goodbye

I could try to hold on if I thought I could change your mind
But I don't think I can when I feel like I feel tonight

I watched you fade away
But I turned my head and closed my eyes
And prayed you'd stay
And I told myself that it'd be fine
I wish I could have just said somethin', oh
When you said you needed time
When you said you needed time
I heard goodbye
Goodbye

Party Girl

All them boys are spraying down and shining their wheels, and all them girls are getting pretty putting on heels;
'Cause downtown there's a cover band warming up for the fever jam, blondes' in the bathroom washing x's off their hands.
All of them party people stacking up in a line,
Pushing up on each other like it's raining outside,
But I'ma stay right here so we can disappear,
Yeah I've been waiting all night.

[Chorus:]
Take me to the party girl in the same t-shirt
that you wear to bed while the ceiling fan turns
To the rhythm that were spinning bare feet on the floor in the living room light got me begging for more
Of that party girl strutting down the hall like a beauty Queen long legs and all
got me melting in the cushion of an old love seat
Don't get much better than you and me
And this party girl

I don't need all them humming, buzzing neon signs,
Long as you got that come and get me look in your eyes,
Yeah I'ma stay right here so we can disappear,
We can do it up right

[Chorus:]
Take me to the party girl in the same t-shirt
that you wear to bed while the ceiling fan turns
To the rhythm that were spinning bare feet on the floor in the living room light got me begging for more
Of that party girl strutting down the hall like a beauty Queen long legs and all
got me melting in the cushion of an old love seat
Don't get much better than you and me
And this party girl

Take me to the party girl, wearing nothing but that t-shirt
Laying down on an old love seat, nothing better than you and me

[Chorus:]
And that party girl in the same t-shirt
that you wear to bed while the ceiling fan turns
To the rhythm that were spinning bare feet on the floor in the living room light got me begging for more
Of that party girl strutting down the hall like a beauty Queen long legs and all
Got me melting in the cushion of an old love seat
Don't get much better than you and me
And this party girl

Ain't nothing better than you and me, girl
Yeah, so gimme that gimme that girl

Close Your Eyes

Monday mornin' here with you
Under this bed sheet parachute
Skin so soft, eyes so blue
The lighting strikes and the rain falls too
So let it fall, let our worries wash away
Let it roll down our windows, all wrapped up we'll stay

[Chorus:]
Lady, we can lay here and be lazy
Let it all go, I'll be a pillow, slide just a little closer, let me warm you up
Darling, drown in a river that you're caught in
I wanna get lost in your silhouette, and don't forget that red, wet kiss on my lips.
we don't have to go outside, baby just close your eyes

Hold your body like a sweet, sweet rose
From your long brown hair to your curled up toes
Pull you in, keep you close
I wanna know the you nobody knows.
Baby fall, you're safe here in my arms
we can cover all the windows and hide out in the dark

[Repeat Chorus x2]

I'm gunna hold your body like a sweet sweet rose
From your long brown hair to your curled up toes
