Lyrics

Nashville

I fly west to O'Hare airport
The car is ready in the parking lot
I close the door and I can't wait no more
that's all I was longing for

I drive to the south
Freedom is what it's all about
Straight to Nashville Tennessee
the best place to go for guys like me

Chorus:
Cruising through America
Following the rising star
Driving down the mid-west
(1) Country music at its best
(2) Drive along, no time to rest

Along the street from town to town
the sun is shining I put the windows down
I Listen to the wind and smell the freedom
There's Nashville on the horizon

On the road I see a lot of pickup trucks
Lots of cowboys straight from their dirty jobs
Honky tonk, beers and things like these
That's just the way, the way it is

Bridge:
Live music all night long
From bar to bar, from song to song
When I downed my beer just give me more
That's what I am living for

Chorus:
Cruising through America
Following the rising star
Driving down the mid-west
(1) Country music at its best
(2) Drive along, no time to rest

I drive to the south
Freedom is what it's all about
Straight to Nashville Tennessee
the best place to go for guys like me

Cuttin' Ties

You do it to em all
You try to keep us small
But I will rise, till I can fly

You try to make em fall
To make yourself look tall
So you don't see, who I can be

Oh I've had enough
Don't need validation
Got no limitation

Chorus:
Don't you know
My eyes are on the price
I'm ready for the fight
I'm ready for the fight
Yeah I know
You're barking, but I'll bite
I'm ready for the fight
I'm ready for the fight
Tonight I'm finally cutting ties

My way is going up
Climb the mountain to the top
Till I can see, my own philosophy

Never again under control
My freedom is what I want
Just follow me, if you agree

Man I've had enough
Don't need validation
Got no limitation

Chorus:
Don't you know
My eyes are on the price
I'm ready for the fight
I'm ready for the fight

Yeah I know
You're barking, but I'll bite
I'm ready for the fight
I'm ready for the fight
Tonight I'm finally cutting ties

Bridge:
Man I've got a new life
Without the hooks
And without the chains

Feel the freedom in my bones
I hit the ground
I hit the ground running

Chorus:
Don't you know
My eyes are on the price
I'm ready for the fight
I'm ready for the fight

Yeah I know
You're barking, but I'll bite
I'm ready for the fight
I'm ready for the fight
Tonight I'm finally cutting ties

U.S. & I

There is a country, on the other side of the sea
I saw all the music clips, this is where I wanna be
Cruisin' through the backroads, with my high lifted truck
A friend who helps me out, when I get stuck in the mud

Hunting in the woods and looking out for deer
Sitting around (slang) the bonfire and drinking some beer
We just have a great time and I grab my guitar
I'm singing some country lines, with the moonshine in the jar

Chorus:
I like freedom and the love in your hearts
From the gentle beaches to the wild mountainous parts
From the crowded city to the quiet woods
I'm a country boy, I wanna go straight back to the roots

Where the cans are blue and the horns are long
When the sun shines bright, it feels so right, that can't be wrong
Save all the stars and stripes, tattooed on my arm
Bless the hard-working people out on their farm

Chorus:
I like freedom and the love in your hearts
From the gentle beaches to the wild mountainous parts
From the crowded city to the quiet woods
I'm a country boy, I wanna go straight back to the roots

Guitar

Chorus:
I like freedom and the love in your hearts
From the gentle beaches to the wild mountainous parts
From the crowded city to the quiet woods
I'm a country boy, I wanna go straight back to the roots

I'm With You

Get the feeling that you know me
When you stand by my side
Thinking we should go and run free
Be a part of my ride

You can see right through me
You're the one who understands
With you is where I wanna be
You take me for who I am

Standing on the edge now
I ain't feeling no doubt
We are living loud and proud

Chorus:
Life will get you high

Life will get you low
But as long as I'm with you
It doesn't matter where we go
Life will get you low
Life will get you high
Every day feels so brand new
When I am – with you

Together we are stronger
Than I'd ever be alone
You and I can make it further
Than I ever would on my own

Standing on the edge now
I ain't feeling no doubt
We are living loud and proud

Chorus:
Life will get you high
Life will get you low
But as long as I'm with you
It doesn't matter where we go
Life will get you low
Life will get you high
Every day feels so brand new
When I am – with you

Bridge:
Even if hell calls my name
Even if it looks, like a losing game
I never go alone on this ride
I know you're forever by my side

Even if live gets me down
Even if I hit the ground
I know I'll be save when I'm with you

Chorus:
Life will get you high
Life will get you low
But as long as I'm with you
It doesn't matter where we go
Life will get you low
Life will get you high
Every day feels so brand new
When I am – with you

Country Girl

I walked into the bar, she was standing right there
Her long long legs and her long brown hair
Her nice round butt was covered in tight blue jeans
With boots on her feet the hottest of all country queens

Chorus:
She... has a will of her own
She... calls a small town her home
She... loves a big ass truck
And tailgates down on the back

She drinks a Bud Light and throws away the sweet drink
She looks like a wild girl, next to those wearing pink
The tattoos on her arms shine through the white tight shirt
For her I wanna go through the deepest dirt

Chorus:
She... has a will of her own
She... calls a small town her home
She... loves a big ass truck
And tailgates down on the back

Between the little cars, she parks her pick-up truck
She doesn’t stare at a computer at her hard and dirty job
She drives the backroads letting the windows down
Through the deepest mud with the loudest country sound

Chorus:
She... has a will of her own
She... calls a small town her home
She... loves a big ass truck
And tailgates down on the back

She... drives along the backroad
She... loves to hunt in the woods
She... stands up for her own

Cause she's a country girl
