Still I Am lyrics - Rodney Atkins

Which way you want this shit to go
I did shit no diamonds did the shit with gold
Now I flood the shit with stone
Different colors different sets I got different goals
Different views different cities
Boss woman now different crews coming with me
Big face bills some is blue on the 50s
If the shit go down got different tools different semis
That's why most hoes envy
That's why most broke hoes is dying to go against me
But I'm still sitting pretty
I'm the only one in my city that can pull up in a Bentley
Drop top or the Phantom
Was in a dawn with Philthy Rich I was standing
I know this bitches can't stand it
Every time they look up I'm on billboards and banners

I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans

I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans

I done took plenty losses
That's why I feel like I deserve to keep flossing
The shit is exhausting
When you boss up and run your own office
But I'll take that over anything
'Cause I done been without shit for plenty days
G5 jets or the mini planes
To get whatever that we go to keep you entertained
Bullshit I have been in
Weak contracts where the label not spending
Now I'm starting up engines
In blacked-out Wraiths with the windows all tinted
I done earned this life
Fuck all the bullshit. I done earn these strips
For all of them days I've lived on my dime
And the label didn't spend I'm back on my grind

I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans

I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I been that bitch and I still am
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans

I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans
I love a hating-ass hoe. They're my real fans

Winter Wonderland lyrics - Rod + Rose, Rodney Atkins & Rose Falcon

Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin'
In the lane, snow is glistenin'
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the blue bird
Here to stay is the new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say "are you married?" we'll say "no man
But you can do the job when you're in town"

Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we made
Walkin' in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say "are you married?" we'll say "no man
But you can do the job when you're in town"

Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we made
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
We're walkin' in a winter wonderland
Wonderland

"Take A Back Road" (2011)




Take A Back Road lyrics - Rodney Atkins

Sit in that six-lane backed up traffic
Horns are honking, I've about had it
I'm looking for an exit sign
Gotta get out of here, get it all off my mind
And like a memory from your grandpa's attic
A song comes slippin' through the radio static
Changing my mood
A little George Strait 1982

And it makes me wanna take a back road
Makes me wanna take the long way home
Put a little gravel in my travel
Unwind, unravel all night long
Makes me wanna grab my honey
Tear down some two-lane country
Who knows
Get lost and get right with my soul
Makes me wanna take
Makes me wanna take a back road.

I've been cooped up, tied down, 'bout forgotten
What a field looks like, full of corn and cotton
If I'm gonna hit a traffic jam,
Well it better be a tractor man
So sick and tired of this interstate system
I need a curve and wind-a-twistin'
Dusty path to nowhere
With the wind blowing through my baby's hair

Yeah, makes me wanna take a back road
Makes me wanna take the long way home
Put a little gravel in my travel
Unwind, unravel all night long
Makes me wanna grab my honey
Tear down some two-lane country
Who knows
Get lost and get right with my soul
Makes me wanna take
Makes me wanna take a back road.
Some old back road 

Maybe it's the feeling or maybe it's the freedom
Maybe it's that shady spot
Where we park the truck when the things get hot
Where we park the truck when the things get hot

And it makes me wanna take a back road
Makes me wanna take the long way home
Put a little gravel in my travel
Unwind, unravel all night long
Makes me wanna grab you honey 
Tear down some two-lane country
Who knows
Get lost and get right with my soul
Makes me wanna take
Makes me wanna take a back road.
Some old back road, get right with my soul
Now all I gotta do is take some old back road
To the shady spot where things get hot
Way down, way down, way down some old back road

He's Mine lyrics - Rodney Atkins

Old man knocked on my front door
With my teenage boy and a couple more
From up the road
He had him by the collar
Said he caught him shootin' beer bottles
Down in the holler and smokin'
I said is that right
He said, they won't speak when spoken to
So which one here belongs to you
And I know one does
'Cause they all started runnin'
To your back forty
When they saw me comin' on my gator
I looked in them in the eyes

And I said, he's mine that one
Got a wild-hair side and then some
There's no surprise what he's done
He's ever last bit of my old man's son
If you knew me then
There'd be no question in your mind
You know he's mine
Yeah he is

Friday night football games
I was livin' for the speakers
To call the name
On the back of number thirty-seven
Just one-forty-five
And five foot eleven
Maybe

Limelight barely shined on him
But everyone still remembers when
He whooped up on that boy way bigger
For taking that cheap shot on our little kicker
And they threw him out
Aw man, you shoulda, you shoulda herd me shout

I yelled he's mine that one
Got a wild-hair side and then some
It's no surprise what he's done
He's ever last last bit of my old man's son
And I'll take the blame
And claim him every time
Yeah man, he's mine and he'll always be
The best thing that ever happened to me
You can't turn it off like electricity
I love him unconditionally
I'll take the blame
And claim him every time
Yeah, y'all, he's mine
I thank God, he's mine

Family lyrics - Rodney Atkins

Family reunion, 4th of July
It's been three years since I've seen it
Now I remember why
Aunt Charlotte's at the door
Big smile on her face
The first thing she says to me:
"Looks like you've gained some weight"
You only get that kind of honesty
From family

Uncle Joe's getting plastered
Aunt Marthe's getting mad
Same old cousin Doug
Same old jokes, same old bad
Mama has to keep reminding me
Son, they're family

A few new babies, the same old crazies
I've known 'em my whole life
And they still amaze me
I didn't choose 'em
But I'd hate to lose 'em
Cause you gotta love 'em
They're family

Cousin Linda showed up
With her new sweetheart
I had to laugh when daddy whispered
Fifth time might be the charm
And there's a brother Lester
In the city, just flew in
All the way from way out [?]
We're still not sure about him
But different as we are it's good to be
In family

A few new babies, the same old crazies
I've known 'em my whole life
And they still amaze me
I didn't choose 'em
Wouldn't wanna lose 'em
Cause you gotta love 'em
Man, they're family

When mama said the blessings
She was fightin' back the tears
Cause the last time we were all together
Grandpa was here
She knew how proud he'd be
And how much he'd love to see

A few new babies, the same old crazies
I've known 'em my whole life
And they still amaze me
Don't get to choose 'em
But you hate to lose 'em
You gotta love 'em
Cause they're family

Family reunion, 4th of July
It's been three years since I've seen it
Now I remember why

The Corner lyrics - Rodney Atkins

First time I left home
Here's the words that my dad said to me
He said sit down son
Don't take curves
Doin' 90 miles an hour
Or you will end up upside down
If you really like her
Don't forget the flowers
The first time and every time you take her out
I've been around the block
And I know what's 'round the corner

Choose your words wisely
Cause you can't take 'em back
Once they've broken someone's heart
Just because your friend does
Doesn't mean you have to
It's what sets the two of you apart
I've been around the block
And I know what's 'round the corner

Don't pretend to know it all
When you don't know a thing
And know your way around it
Before you throw your hat into the rain
And don't commit to somethin'
If you can't follow through
And your past will always catch up with you
I've been around the block
And I know what's 'round the corner

Always call your mama
When you say you gonna
While she's still here for you to call
And don't forget the man upstairs
In your darkest hour
He's a pick me up every time you fall
I've been around the block
And I know what's 'round the corner

I've been around the block
And I know what's 'round the corner
I'm in your corner

I've been around the block
Enough to know what's 'round the corner
What's around the corner [x2]

She's A Girl lyrics - Rodney Atkins

Did she tried to play a little hard to get
Well just a little hint, oh don't give up just yet
What made you think that love was gonna be so easy
Well she's a girl ain't she

Does she get to you, like no one else
Could she make your life heaven or a livin hell
Did you think beautiful would drive you so crazy
Oh she's a girl ain't she

Is she on your mind
Every other thought
Is there nothing you wouldn't do for her just because
Does she hold your heart
In her hands
Did she walk into your life
And change your plans

Did she want a ring, did you tell her no
Or is it on her finger now, yea I thought so
Does she always get whatever she thinks she needs
Well she's a girl ain't she

Is she on your mind
Every other thought
Is there nothing you wouldn't do for her just because
Does she hold your heart
In her hands
Did she walk into you life
And change your plans

Does she have her momma's big bright eyes
Did you ever think something so small could change your life
She can melt your heart with a just a smile can't she
She's always gonna be her daddy's little baby
She's a girl ain't she

She's your girl, She's your girl

She'd Rather Fight lyrics - Rodney Atkins

I miss my baby so much
After being gone
Out on that lake at fishin'
All weekend long
So I bought her flowers
And a bottle of the good stuff
But when I walked in I knew
Well I didn't bring enough

Cause she ain't as happy as I am to be home
If looks could kill I'd be cold as a stone
I'm already ready to kiss and make up
Looks like tonight I'm out of luck oh no
Cause she'd rather fight than you know what

Had reservations at that
Japanese steak house
Don't need to go where they're
Throwing knifes around
Just take my ear for love
All the wrong I've done
Just get it over while she
Tears me a new one

She ain't as happy as I am to be home
If looks could kill I'd be cold as a stone
I'm already ready to kiss and make up
Looks like tonight I'm out of luck oh no
Cause she'd rather fight than you know
What I'd like to do

If I could just somehow
Get her in the mood
Oh but I can see right now

She ain't as happy as I am to be home
If looks could kill I'd be cold as a stone
I'm already ready to kiss and make up
Looks like tonight I'm out of luck oh no
Cause she'd rather fight than you know what
I might be sleeping in my truck
Cause she'd rather fight than you know what

You know what
I love you
Don't you like what I got you?
I'm out here if you need me
Oh my back's been sunburned
I think I'm sunburned baby

Feet lyrics - Rodney Atkins

Don't let the sun set on an argument
It's easy to say when you're not in one
That's a fact
Cause when we're not gettin' along
She's got a strong stubborn side
But I can't call that kiddo black

Cause sometimes our silly fights
May go well into the night
And we hit the sack
Back to back
Too ticked off to speak
We'd rather hold our grudges
Than be the one that budges
We'd go to bed
Buttin' heads and tuggin' sheets
But we never fall asleep
Without touching feet

Yeah we'll take cover
On that queen-size battle field
Her angry eyes are almost closed
We'll swallow just enough
Of that foolish pride
To whisper the truth soul to soul
Toe to toe

Sometimes our silly fights
Go well into the night
And we'll hit the sack
Back to back
Too ticked off to speak
We'd rather hold our grudges
Than be the one that budges
We'd go to bed
Buttin' heads and tuggin' sheets
But we never fall asleep
Without touching feet

It's not giving in
It's sayin' nobody's leaving
But you know that I still love you
Even when we're disagreeing

Cause sometimes our silly fights
Go well into the night
And we hit the sack
Back to back
Too ticked off to speak
Cause we'd rather hold our grudges
Than be the one that budges
We'll go to bed
Buttin' heads and tuggin' sheets
But we never fall asleep
Without touching feet
