Startin With Me lyrics

He said he had to stop
Hadn't had a drop
Of anything
Stonger than coffee
In 10 months 3 weeks and 1 long day
He pushed away his plate
Said its better late
Then never done
When it comes
To gettin right
It took a while but I saw the light

Bridge
He said somethings they cast long shadows
That I never will out run
And everyday I spend a-livin'

I've always bee the kind of man to jump the gun, and cut and run. Stayin' one step agead of that ol' ball and chain.
Settlin' down never crossed my mind. It was easier to leave the knot untied. It looks like a lot of things have changed.

Chorus

You're makin it hard not to love you
Makin it tough on a man like me
Who's always found a way to get around this kind of thing

She pulled her hair back to sun her shoulders
Took the oil and rubbed it all over her soft skin
Oh I'm a lucky man
She wasn't wantin' any suntan lines so she
Reached back and she untied that little string
And then she smiled at me
And blew a kiss right off of her fingertips
I don't know what it is

Chorus
But there's something about a woman
Yeah some kind sweet little something

I had a one night stand with my best friends baby sister
And to this day he still wont speak to me
I pawned my grandpa’s old guitar in collage
For a case of beer and a tank of gasoline
I took a swing at my old man at Christmas
I never dreamed that it would be his last
I wish mom had rung my neck
When she caught me with them cigarettes
Which reminds me, I’m down to my last pack

You look like an angel with your head in the clouds
you woke me up this morning with your fooling around, at a half past 3
awww, lately i dont get much sleep (thats all right)
cause girl it feels so good the way you bring out the bad in me

you call me up at work said baby can you come on home
im feeling kinda crazy and im all alone, i got nothin on

Didn't come in here for your sympathy,
and a honky tonk queen's the last thing I need.
Just set me up with your best whiskey.
This is just between the bottle and me.

I don't want to talk. I don't need a friend.
Don't think I stuttered when I said
I'm here to deal with a memory.
Yeah, this is just between the bottle and me.

A man can't face the cold, hard truth
