My chances weren't good; she was way out of my reach How could she ever fall for some ol' boy like me But here she lies asleep tonight in these arms of mine And that goes to show: angels fall sometimes
She's been here long enough to see that I'm no saint by now Every mornin' I wake surprised to find her still around The love that she gives to me could be no truer sign Every now and then angels fall sometimes
She brings pieces of heaven every day into my life She's been my inspiration with her by my side I'm not afraid to dream high
The love that she gives to me could be no truer sign Every now and then angels fall sometimes Yeah, I thank the Lord angels fall sometimes
Rain's comin' down on the roof of my trailer house With my luck I'd probably step outside and drown How long will it take to get used to this, doin' without? Guess I'll just lay around in my pajamas Baby's gone home to mama
[Chorus] Baby's gone home; she left me alone But she said she'd phone me sometime Sad old song, left me long gone outta my mind Well, we did our best, but we didn't have enough in common Sittin' here lonesome; baby's gone home to mama
Glance through the paper lookin' for somethin' to read Even the funnies weren't that funny to me It's written in the stars: the future was plain to see, yeah Might've known she'd leave if I'd read Nostradamus Baby's gone home to mama
[Chorus]
Y'all, I miss her alot, but at least she took the little Chiwawa Sittin' here lonesome; baby's gone home to mama Baby's long gone, baby's gone home to mama She's gone Ah, sittin' here in my pajamas My pajammies
Woke up at 5am, an put on my camouflage Wiped off my .243 and fired up my Dodge Headed out to my ol' deer stand back in the pines Gonna get me a ten point buck with 11 inch tines, yeah
Settled in hidin' from the wind, Waitin' on the sun You might end up being my supper If you get in the way of my gun It's so still I can hear the train From 10 miles away If I'm here 8 hours from now It'll be OK, yeah
Cause I'm a backwoods boy Grew up on a dirt road I'm a backwoods boy With no better place to go Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star I'll always be true to my heart Cause I'm a backwoods boy I'm a backwoods boy
Sittin' on the bank of Lynches River with a little campfire Sleepin' on the ground, diggin' the Sound of a backwoods choir Talkin' to the man in the moon Way up in the sky He told me to let my worries Roll on by, yeah
Cause I'm a backwoods boy Grew up on a dirt road I'm a backwoods boy With no better place to go Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star I'll always be true to my heart Cause I'm a backwoods boy I'm a backwoods boy
I'm a backwoods boy I'm a backwoods boy Backwoods boy Mm I'm a backwoods boy
She was out last night Til way past ten Same thing all over again But with my best friend Why'd she wanna make me so mad?
I treat that bad woman good Lord, I need a good woman bad
Now when I asked her To go to Sunday school She went and called me a damned ol' fool Now i dont understand Why'd she wanna make me so sad?
I treat that bad woman good Lord, I need a good woman bad
Oh here she comes Oh, there she goes
Well I saved my money And I bought her a car She got it stolen outside a bar She looks good, but she might not be The kind of woman that I'm likely to need Oh well I don't know why I let her walk on in She's as impolite as she can be Now I'm starting to think Hey maybe I've been had
I treat that bad woman good, Lord, I need a good woman bad
I treat that bad woman good, Lord, I need a good woman bad
I treat that bad woman good, Lord, I need a good woman bad
I've got my share of scars on those ol' monkey bars Every time I'd hit the ground On that old long dirt, my bike lost control And once again I was fallin' down Every time I'd try to fly, there's a force I can't deny Gravity
Grew to be six foot one, depended on no one Yeah, I was my ol' man Invincible and strong until you came along And touched me with your gentle hand When I look into your eyes, there's a force I can't deny Gravity
[Chorus x 2] Well, I never really like it much Always left me all scraped up Never really saw it as a good thing Changes tides out on the sea Pulled your body close to me First time I ain't been afraid to fall Don't guess it's so bad after all Gravity
Some men dream of crossin' oceans Some men dream one day to fly Spend their whole lives out there floatin' On the water and the sky
Some men dream of building fortunes Some men dream of havin' fame Nothin' else is more important Than makin' money and a name
But in my dreams I see A little sky blue house Beside a small stream A front porch, a screen door The sound of bare feet runnin' and cartoons In my dreams, your dreams come true
I come find you in your garden Pullin' weeds between the rows Trade a kiss for a glass of water Sit and watch what love can grow
But in my dreams I see A little sky blue house Beside a small stream A front porch, a screen door The sound of bare feet runnin' and cartoons In my dreams, your dreams come true
In my dreams, your dreams Are the only things That really matter to me When you smile, I smile What makes you happy makes me happy too In my dreams, your dreams come true In my dreams, your dreams come true
