Comin' On Strong lyrics

I said I'd call sometime
No I think I just said I might
'Cuz I was cool as Colorado
Mr. Saturday Night
We're talkin' shades on
Leanin' on the pay phone

I let her know right off I was the restless kind
Don't expect for me to get all tangled up and tied
I was one smooth cowboy
But don't look now boys

She's comin' on strong from outta nowhere
She's some kind of sweet and I'm some kind of scared

You're doing all you can
To get in them old jeans
You want that body back
You had at 17
Now baby, don't get down
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
cuz the way you're fillin out,
Hey Thats alright with me
I don't want the girl you used to be
And if you aint notice
The kids are fast aleep and You're...

One Hot Mama!
You turn me on lets turn it up,
And turn this room into a sauna.
One hot mama

Mile marker 2

An hour into my shift
I'm covered from head to toe
Drilling oil from the bottom
Of the Gulf of Mexico
Sun's on the rise
Sweat rolling black down my face
Work until I can't move
Another back-breaking typical day

Chorus:
I've weathered waterspouts and hurricanes
Hailstorms and driving rain
And missing you
I've worked through broken drills
And busted hands
Weeks without seeing dry land

Well it ain't home but it'll have to do for a while
Got a fold down bed, two windows on the parking lot
Three plates on the kitchenette, a table and a chair where I can eat
A little black-and-white TV, a shower stall and a bathroom sink
And one two-drawer nightstand, barely enough room to be a man

And on that nightstand, sits a photograph of my wife and kids

Have you ever had
One of those days
When you wake up feelin' good
So good that you could take the whole world on
One of those days
When you just know
No matter what
Nothin' could go wrong
Well that's the way I feel this mornin'
But, baby I just gotta say
I always have one of those days

Chorus:
After one of those nights
Just like
Last night
Oh my, what a beautiful thing
Just you

Mudgrips, white-tip
Cigar stickin' out of my face
Earnhardt racing sticker on the window
Banged up fender
4 x 4, straight pipe roar
Primer and rust all over the door
Scarred up knuckles, Mack belt buckle
White t-shirt, ain't afraid to work
Got a "what are you looking at pretty-boy" smirk

Cold beer, hot wings
Wranglers, Skoal ring
Get just what you see
Gun rack, ball cap
Don't take no crap

Mudgrips, white-tip
Cigar stickin' out of my face
Earnhardt racing sticker on the window
Banged up fender
4 x 4, straight pipe roar
Primer and rust all over the door
Scarred up knuckles, Mack belt buckle
White t-shirt, ain't afraid to work
Got a "what are you looking at ass-hole" smirk

Cold beer, hot wings
Wranglers, Skoal ring
Get just what you see
Gun rack, ball cap
Don't take no crap

Long-legged shadows
Mississippi sunset
She was standing like a candle
That hasn't been burned yet
The wind was blowin'
Clouds like ashes
Had my hand in my pocket
Reaching for my matches

I can see those
Cotton sheets dancin'
On her mama's clothesline in my head
From my lips a Lucky Strike was danglin'
The day was dyin' in a sea of red

Then came the night
Warm and dark
Draggin' it's chains

I smell the fragrance of your hair
Fell your fingers and your breath
On my skin
When we're here alone like this
Our crazy world
Makes perfect sense
I hear you whispering my name
Your kisses leave the sweetest taste
On my lips
When you say I love you too
Soft and tender like you do
I know all my dreams have come true

[chorus]
Then I wake up
On the floor beside our bed where I sleep
