Out Of Nowhere Lyrics

Track list

Black Eye Booze

Sometimes I need
Blowing off some steam
Black eye booze
Is calling my name

I need to go
Out of Control
Black eye booze
Calling my name

I`m gettin’ all crazy
Reckless to the bone
Black eye booze
Calling my name
Calling my name

When I wake up in the morning
I’ve been going on for days
Feeling lost and lonely
I know I lost my way
Black eye booze
You call on me again

Sometimes I need
Blowing off some steam
Black eye booze
Is calling my name
Is calling my name
Is calling my name

Ain’t That Good Enough

I come home late at night
After a Long hard drive
I put my feet on the table
I know I ain’t got much pa

Ain’t that good enough…
Ain’t that good enough for you
Don’t mean to be tuff on ya, but
Ain’t that good enough for you

I rub ya back and I nurse ya
I listen all night long
But when I tell ya that I love ya
It’s like the cat got ya tongue

Ain’t that…

I try to call from the road
You say you like to hear my voice
But baby you unplugged the phone
You say it makes to much noise

I try to live my life
I try to please you to
You just don’t understand
That’s all a man can d

Ain’t that…

What’s it gonna take baby
You got to tell me right now
Cause I really wanna love ya
Please tell me how

Ain’t that…

You

You give me goosebumps and chills
You make me wanna climb high hills
You make me feel like a man
You make me wanna understand

But then you change your mind
And bring me misery
You turn from lovin’ and kind
To bring hell on me

You hold my heart in your hands
You ease my mind when it jams
You show how much you care
You got all your love to share

But then you change your mind
And bring me misery
You turn from lovin’ and kind
To bring hell on me

You shield me from the rain
You can always ease my pain
You never leave my side
And you chose to be my bride

But then you changed your mind
And showed me misery
You went from lovin’ and kind
And brought hell on me

My Daddy Said

My daddy said
Take care of you brother
My daddy said
Take care of you sister
I said daddy
Who’s taking care of me

My daddy said
You better watch you mother
My daddy said
Be careful who you bother
I said daddy
Daddy do I bother you

Suffer This Way

I’ve got the blues
It’s in my bones
I’m bound to loose
Though I turn every stone
If the lord can hear me
Every time I pray,
Does it mean I deserve
To suffer this way

I cant get a job
And I feel like trash
I’m out of fuel
Running low on cash
Tell me if the lord hears me
Every time I pray
Does it mean I deserve
To suffer this way

I’m out of ideas
And out of time
I’m out of ways out
Almost ready to commit a crime
But if the lord hears me
Everytime I pray
Does it mean I deserve
To suffer this way

I Can Still Feel

I can still feel
Everything I felt
When I fell in love with you
And it feels unreal
But loving you
Is all I wanna do

When you hold me
All ends meet
And the world lays at my feet

I try hard to be
All you ever wanted
Just take what you want from me
Your love is so sweet
Yes it’s true
It’s all I’ll ever need

When you kiss me
My heart skips a beat
And the world lays at my feet

My whole heart belongs to you
And I will always be true

I can still feel
Everything I felt
When I fell in love with you
And it feels unreal
But loving you
Is all I wanna do
When you hold me
All ends meet
And the world lays at my feet

Roll The Dice Again

Sometimes I can feel
A demon in my head
When I try to defeat it
It breaks me down instead

Maybe you won’t believe me
But baby most of the time
When I try to conceal it
It’s with you in my mind

Sometimes I fight fire with fire
Sometimes I laugh at it’s face
Sometimes I try to kill my desire
But it wins – always
Roll the dice again

It’s pure hard luck
That through all this time
I never even got close to
Leave that demon behind

Sometimes I can feel
A demon in my head
When I try to defeat it
It breaks me down instead

I’ve tried to fight fire with fire,
I’ve tried to laugh at its face
And even to kill my desire
But it wins – always

Roll the dice again
Roll the dice again
Roll the dice again

Ain’t Going Back No More

I’m gonna take a walk
Deep down into the woods
I’m gonna keep on walking
Until I can´t walk no more

Ain’t going back no more
Ain’t going back no more
Ain’t going back no
Ain’t going back no
Ain’t going back no more

I’m gonna build a cabin
The cabin’s gonna keep me dry
I’m gonna let it rain
Until it wouldn´t rain no more

Ain’t going back no more
Ain’t going back no more
Ain’t going back no
Ain’t going back no
Ain’t going back no more

I’m gonna make a fire
To put my mind at ease
I’m gonna watch it burn
Until it won´t burn no more

Ain’t going back no more
Ain’t going back no more
Ain’t going back no
Ain’t going back no
Ain’t going back no more

I’ve Got This Feeling

I’ve got this feeling
My sweet love’s gonna leave today
I’ve got this feeling
My sweet love’s gonna leave today
When I woke up this morning
She looked at me in a different way

I’ve got this feeling
My baby’s got another man
I’ve got this feeling
My baby’s got another man
She’s so good looking
She can have every man by her hand

I’ve got this funny feeling
When I hold her hand and
Squeeze her tight
I’ve got this funny feeling
When I hold her hand and
Squeeze her tight
Feels like she’s drifting
People, something just ain’t right

I’ve got this funky feeling, like
Butter scraped out on to much bread
I’ve got this funky feeling, like
Butter scraped out on to much bread
I’m gonna leave and I’m gonna love
Someone else instead
Yes I’m gonna leave and I’m gonna love Someone else instead

Reckless Girl

Reckless girl
What’s wrong with you
You run around
You know that’s true

What ya gonna do
When they come for you

Reckless girl
Shame on you
You’re so cruel
‘n proud of it too

What ya gonna do
When they come for you

Reckless girl
You got no pride
You can run
But you can’t hide

What ya gonna do
When they come for you

What ya gonna do
When they come for you

What ya gonna do
When they come for you

What ya gonna do
When they come for you

Waste No Time

You give me the chill
Up and down my spine
You give me the chill
Up and down my spine
It’s been too long
Don’t you waste no time

You make me crazy
Always on my mind
You make me crazy
Always on my mind
I’m upside down
You turn six to nine

Sometimes late at night
I holler at the moon
Sometimes late at night
I holler at the moon
I need you so bad
Anytime real soon

You give me the chill
Up and down my spine
You give me the chill
Up and down my spine
I’ve been waiting too long
Don’t you waste no time

Let You Go

When you look at me
Baby what do you see
Do you see who I am
Or what you hoped I’d be
Well this might hurt
But you’ve got to know
If you try to change me
I’ve got to let you go

I don’t compromise
With who I am
I’m not gonna pretend
To serve your vision of a man
So listen here baby
You better know
If you try to change me
I’ve got to let you go

So take a look at me
What you see is what you get
Do you want to make a change
That you’ll later regret
No listen here baby
You’ve got to know
If you try to change me
I’ve got to let you go

If you try to change me
I’ve got to let you go

If you try to change me
I’ve got to let you go

If you try to change me
I’ve got to let you go

Low Tide

It’s a low tide
It’s a low tide

It’s a low tide
It’s a low tide

It’s a low tide
It’s a low tide
