Album: Keep It Redneck (2013)

Make Things Right

Slipped off the tracks,
Face hit the ground.
Left all alone,
Ain't no one around.
I know,
I'm heartbroke,
Just like a sad song.
But every one that I hear reminds me you're gone.
Your daddy told me if I came back,
His thirty-thirty sittin right up on the gun rack.
And I was thinkin that maybe you might have called ma.
She told me,
"Baby,
I don't wanna get it wrong."
I know what I done,
It hurts so bad.
And I'd give anything if I could go back.
Small town boy,
But you already know that.
Life started comin at me so fast.
I get so mad,
I gotta ride off.
I wanna stop by,
But would you even talk? Last chance,
Can't be the last fight.
I just gotta,
Baby maybe we can make things right?

You ain't gotta cut me off,
Hang up the phone every time I call.
Baby without you I'm lost,
Was it really all my fault? And I just wanna make things right,
Only wanna make things right.
I just wanna make things right,
Tonight,
Tonight.

Now for the first time,
In a long time,
I was up with a pen before the sunshine.
And there's an emptiness inside when you ain't near.
And it's hot outside but there's a cold front here.
And it don't really even gotta be like this.
Girl you seen my fears and you looked like this.
I was sittin on the porch when the sun came creepin thinkin bout yesterday and that Mustang leaving.
Damn,
And I ain't gonna beg you back.
I just sit there and laughed as you grabbed your bags.
And I watched you disappear while I throwed back beer.
It was all she could do just to hold back tears.
A tear's worth a thousand words when it's done.
Write a song,
There's a thousand tears when the sun rise.
I lost the love of my life because I didn't try.
All I wanna do is just make things right tonight.

[x2:]
You ain't gotta cut me off,
Hang up the phone every time I call.
Baby without you I'm lost,
Was it really all my fault? And I just wanna make things right,
Only wanna make things right.
I just wanna make things right,
Tonight,
Tonight.
