Sawyer Brown - 'round Here - lyrics

Sue and Jack fell in love 'round here
They been goin' steady now for years
He couldn't afford much of anything
But he worked and bought her a diamond ring
And that's the way we do it 'round here
Chorus
That's the way it is and that's the way its done 'round here
That's the way we live and that's the way we love 'round here
Strong hearts and folded hands
A workin' woman and a workin' man
That's the way it is and that's the way its done 'round here
You and I will fuss and fight 'round here
But after all this time one thing is clear
We get hurt and broken hearted
But we won't give up what we started
That's the way we do it 'round here
Chorus
That's the way it is and that's the way its done 'round here
That's the way we live and that's the way we love 'round here
Strong hearts and folded hands
A workin' woman and a workin' man
That's the way it is and that's the way its done 'round here
That's the way it's done 'round here
That's the way it's done 'round here
Yea that's the way we do it 'round here

Sawyer Brown - (This Thing Called) Wantin' And Havin' It All - lyrics

Rich man grew old, owned a mansion on top of the hill
Now he's sitting at the table with his lawyer
Goin' over his will 'cause he's ill
The kids don't call, they're waitin' for the man to die
He's gonna leave 'em all a little somethin'
But they're gonna be real surprised
There's a poor man livin' on a budget at the bottom of the hill
With a wife and two kids and a worried mind
About how he's gonna pay the bills
Well, only the rich man knows see,
That's where a lot of his money goes
To the man that brought wood in the winter
To take a little weight off his shoulders
Chorus
There's this thing called wantin' and havin' it all
If you're gonna get there you're gonna have to walk
But first you'll have to crawl
And you know you've gotta do it step by step
Miss one and you'll fall into this well
Called wantin' and havin' it all
Poor man has everything that the rich man don't
He's got love in his life and his heart
He's got a house he calls home
The rich man owns everything from miles around
But what he needs can't be bought it has to be found
His rich kids think that they're better 'cause they're better off
That's how they grew up thinkin' and now
He thinks it's all his fault
So while there's still time the daddy that they nickel and dime
Is gonna make 'em learn to take a turn
And stand in line
Chorus
Bridge
See life's full of changes
And wantin' right now what you only see in your dreams
I know you don't like it and think
It's the strangest thing you've ever seen ... well
There ain't

Sawyer Brown - All Wound Up - lyrics

Since I was a baby maybe two or three
Ain't nothin' ever really bothered me
Some poeple rattle at the smallest thing
I thought I could handle anything
But I'm

All wound up nothin' I can do
I get all wound up
Just from talkin' to you
I used to believe I was Immune to love
But look at me now I'm all wound up

I never wondered what it's all about
Never saw a thing I couldn't do without
My feet are used to bein' on the ground
These days I wanna kick 'em around
Cause I'm

All wound up nothin' I can do
I get all wound up
Just from talkin' to you
I used to believe I was Immune to love
But look at me now I'm all wound up

All wound up
All wound up
All wound up

Fame and fortune I can take or leave
One touch from you and
I can barely breathe
Hung out and dryin' for the world to see
Well I've got you all over me and I'm

All wound up nothin' I can do
I get all wound up
Just from talkin' to you
I used to believe I was Immune to love
But look at me now I'm all wound up
I can't get over how I'm all wound up

Sawyer Brown - 800 Pound Jesus - lyrics

I saw a garage sale
Pulled up in the yard
Found a statue of Jesus
It was eight feet tall
He held out his arms
And he seemed all alone
So I loaded him up
And drove him home
Out by my driveway he
Looks down the street
With his long hair and sandals made
Of rebar and concrete
I painted him white with a long purple robe
He's a rock of ages on our gravel road
Chorus
He's an eight-hundred pound Jesus
Standing taller than a tree
He's an eight-hundred pound Jesus
A bigger man than you or me
I thought loosin' my job was
The end of the world
Till my best pal ran off with my best girl
I felt suicidal with no real friends
So I walked outside with a rope in my hand
Out by that statue there's a big old tree
So I stood on his shoulders
And I counted to three
I had every intention of buying the farm
But when I jumped off he caught me in his arms
Chorus
I wanted to return the favor to him
Cause I never had a more solid friend
So I planted some flowers
All around his feet
And I bought him a flock
Of ceramic sheep
Chorus
He's a bigger man
Than you or me

Sawyer Brown - A Different Tune - lyrics

I need a harder heart to take the place
Of this one you brake In two
Man I could use a new guitar
To play a different tune
Your trail is hot man it's still smokin'
You're gone for good baby I ain't dumb
I knew that you were tired of hearin'
The same ole song I sung
You packed up your magazine
The one that tells you what to do
I'm not the kind of man you need
To make your dreams come true
Chorus
I need to find a faster car
To give you a little more room
I need a longer lariat
To lasso you the moon
I need a harder heart to take the place
Of this one you brake In two
Man I could use a new guitar
To play a different tune
Babe was I that ripe for the pickin'
You set your sights like a loaded gun
The bullet hit but It ain't stickin'
It's hard to shoot when your on the run
I'm the one you set your sights for
But not the one you're gonna keep
You go out running after midnight Walkin' In my sleep
Chorus
I need a harder heart to take the place
Of this one you brake In two
Man I could use a new guitar

Man I could use a new guitar To play a different tune

Sawyer Brown - A Love Like This - lyrics

Who would have thought an innocent dance
Would leave two hearts with even half a chance
And who would have know after all this time
We would search and that we would find
Chorus
In a town this big in a house this small
In a world so flat that there could exist
A love like that a love like this
So young so green so blue so bold
Who would have thought that
We would brake the mold
So afraid to fall and scared not to
If we had only known what our hearts knew
Chorus
Repeat Chorus

Sawyer Brown - All These Years - lyrics

She likes adventure with security
And more than one man can provide
She planned adventure feeling sure that he
Would not be hom 'til after five
He turned on the lights and turned them off again
And said the one thing he could say
CHORUS
All these years
Where have I been
I've been down the road to work and home again
But I'm still here
And until I'm gone
Don't you rub it in too hard that I've been wrong
All these years
She said, "You're not the man you used to be"
He said, "Neither is this guy"
She said, "There's somethings you rfuse to see
But I guess sometimes so do I"
She made no excuse why she was lying there
She said the one thing she could say
CHORUS

Sawyer Brown - Another Mile - lyrics

I was sittin' at the station
Waiting for a sign
It was closed for renovation
You smiled as you walked by
You were a long time in coming
I've waited quite a while
Here we are rollin'
And we've gone another mile
Chorus
Another mile
One more mile
We can make it down this road girl you and I
Love grows strong just hold on
And you'll find that we've gone another mile
This world moves in circles
Never one straight line
It keeps us all from seeing
What lies ahead to find
But I know when I get home
You're the reason why
I had to keep on goin'
Till I'd gone another mile
Chorus repeats twice
And you'll find that we've gone
Yes you'll find that we've gone
Another mile

Sawyer Brown - Another Side - lyrics

We came up from Sheffield
And they put us on the line
You could smell the powder burnin'
And man, it hurt my eyes
They knew them boys were tired and weak-
We were fresh and we were strong
We could not wait to blast away
And make our presence known
But every time I took my aim
And got one in my sight
In my heart I knew the way
And this way was not right
Oh, I guess my daddy would be proud
But my momma, she's ashamed
And I know deep down we need a change
Them Northern boys are friends of mine
But I've got my Southern pride
I'm standin' here a-fightin'
Wishin' there
Was another side
We burned each other's crops and fields
And took the very best
We fought our way back and forth
Then they put us to the test
I know that some things are wrong
But what gave them the right
To point their righteous fingers
And expect us not to fight?
We all cried on the night they burned Atlanta down
How much more can we take and still stand our ground?
Oh, I guess my daddy would be proud
But my momma, she's ashamed
And I know deep down we need a change
Them colored boys are friends of mine
But I've got my Southern pride
I'm standin' here a-fightin'
Wishin' there
Was another side
In four years the smoke had cleared
And I went back to the farm
Little brother met me at the bridge
And he held out his arms
He was thin and weak and wounded
And dressed in Yankee blue
Well, I cried and I held him
And together we both knew
If it could be done over
There would be a better way
Still one family, and one nation
Oh, but what a price we paid
I guess my daddy would be proud
Bu

Sawyer Brown - 48 Hours Till Monday - lyrics

It's friday night and I've been
Workin' all week long
After the rent all I have left
Is this old song
My baby's right beside me
We're gonna have a ball
Ain't gonna care about anything
Anything at all
Chorus
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars
In change, til monday
Got on my skin tight jeans
And my shirt with the ketchup stains
I've got a hole In my pocket
And the world by the tail
And everything Is going my way
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars In change
We'll get a double dip down
At the Tostey Freeze
Listen to the gossip
Laugh till we can't breath
We'll join the cavalcade of
Down home on parade
Here in our town U.S.A
We really got it made
Chorus
I've got a hole In my pocket
And the world by the tail
And everything Is going my way
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars In change
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars In change
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars In change
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars In change
