Darius Rucker - Wild One Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Wild One Video

I'd like to ask you from the start

If you could pull me out of the dark.

Or if our love could fall apart like cookies crumble.

See, I'm a demon on the loose.

I'm like an engine with no caboose.

And I need somebody who can really handle me.

 

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild one.

Don't let me run.

Don't let me get away.

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild, wild one.

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild one.

Don't let me run.

Don't let me get away.

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild one.

 

I just wanna let you know, girl,

I'm attracted to your physical.

But, I got this lazy eye that likes to wander, oh.

See, I'm tired of being alone,

So if you throw this dog a bone,

Baby, you and I can make our house a home, yeah.

 

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild one.

Don't let me run.

Don't let me get away.

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild, wild one.

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild one.

Don't let me run. Don't let me get away.

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild one.

 

Oh, you could be the one who saves me,

Or try to be the one who tames me.

Girl, you are the one who's changing my way of life.

I'm tired of painting the town with ladies

Or living the life so hazy.

I'm tired of all my lies,

I think I want some real love

But, girl, you gotta realize.

 

Yeah that, baby, I'm a wild one.

Don't let me run.

Don't let me get away.

Yeah, baby I'm a wild, wild one.

Yeah, baby I'm a wild one.

Don't let me run.

Don't let me get away.

Yeah, baby I'm a, (hog wild, yeah) one

Oh,

Yeah, baby,

I'm a wild one,

I'm a wild one,

Dont let me get away,

Yeah, baby, I'm a wild, wild wild one,

(Yeah, baby, I'm a) Hog wild, don't let me run

Don't let me get away

Yeah baby, I'm a wild, wild one, oh wild wild wild one.

Darius Rucker - Don't Think I Don't Think About It Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Don't Think I Don't Think About It Video

I left out in a cloud of taillights and dust

Swore I wasn't coming back, said I'd had enough

Saw you in the rear view standing, fading from my life

But I wasn't turning round

No, not this time

 

But don't think I don't think about it

Don't think I don't have regrets

Don't think it don't get to me

Between the work and the hurt and the whiskey

Don't think I don't wonder 'bout

Could've been, should've been all worked out

I know what I felt and I know what I said

But don't think I don't think about it

 

When we make choices, we gotta live with them

Heard you found a real good man and you married him

I wonder if sometimes I cross your mind

Where would we be today

If I never drove that car away?

 

Don't think I don't think about it

Don't think I don't have regrets

Don't think it don't get to me

Between the work and the hurt and the whiskey

Don't think I don't wonder 'bout

Could've been, should've been all worked out

Yeah I know what I felt and I know what I said

But don't think I don't think about it

Don't think I don't think about it

 

Don't think I don't think about it

Don't think I don't have regrets

Don't think you don't get to me

Between the work and the hurt and the whiskey

Don't think I don't wonder 'bout

Could've been, should've been all worked out

I know what I felt and I know what I said

But don't think I don't think about it

 

No no, don't think I don't

Don't think I don't

Mmmmmmm...

Darius Rucker - Lie To Me Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Lie To Me Video

Girl look at you right there with that wind in your hair

Like a dream in the sunset light

I couldn't love you anymore, I couldn't love you any less

I guess I'm doing something right

But girl you gotta promise me

That if you ever have to leave

 

Baby lie to me 'Cause I couldn't stand the truth

And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you

Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right

And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night

Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye

Just lie to me

 

Last night when I saw you in a dream, you were packing' your things

And baby it all seemed so real

You came to tell me you were gone, my life had ended like a song

Felt as bad as I could feel

So if there ever comes a day

That you wanna walk away

 

Baby lie to me 'Cause I couldn't stand the truth

And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you

Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right

And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night

Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye

Just lie to me

 

Baby just lie to me 'Cause I could not stand the truth

And I couldn't beat the thought of losin' you

Baby lie to me, tell me everything is cool

'Cause knowing you were leavin' girl, that would be so cruel

Girl instead of saying' goodbye

Just smile and look me right in the eye

Yeah girl instead of watching' me cry

Just lie to me oh yeah

Baby lie to me

Darius Rucker - In A Big Way Lyrics

Darius Rucker - In A Big Way Video

I signed up to see this world

Through the windows of buses and planes

Ever since they called my number

I've been living in the fast lane

Yeah it's a dream come true I'm a lucky man

And I love this roll I'm on

But I do run out of gas

Can only run so fast so long ('til)

 

(Chorus)

I need some front porch rockin'

Some back road walkin'

Some sittin' 'round talkin' 'bout nothin'

I need some screen door slammin'

Some home made jam and

Some biscuits cookin' in the oven

I need a little fun with my little ones

A little gospel on Sunday

I need some hangin' 'round my little town

In a big way

 

I may wake in the mornin' in Dallas

I went to bed in Tennessee

I need someone tellin' me where I am sometimes

And where I'm supposed to be

Sometimes I wanna be George Jones

Sometimes Charlie Pride

But all I want to be right now

Is with my baby tonight (cause)

 

Repeat Chorus

 

You know I can't complain

I love this crazy dream but

 

Repeat Chorus

 

I need to take it slow

I need some winding down

I need my little town

And I need it now

In a big way

In a big way

Darius Rucker - We All Fall Down Lyrics

Darius Rucker - We All Fall Down Video

What makes a man

Work 'til his kids get too old to kiss and hug

Keep on climbing that imaginary mountain

When is enough enough

What makes a man build a kingdom

Only to lose his woman

How high is too high how big is too big

How far will we go just to slip off the edge

 

(Chorus)

We all fall down

Life takes us out

The sky starts spinning when our heads

Get above the clouds

The higher we fly the harder it feels

When we hit the ground

Yeah we all fall down

Yeah we all fall down

 

How does a man pick himself up

When he's let himself down

Tell me where does he find the courage

To turn his world back around

Will he break down and cry

Like someone just died

What can he say about the man he used to be

When he can't even speak but he's dying to scream

 

We all fall down

When we find out

That the sky starts spinning when our heads

Get above the clouds

The higher we fly the harder it feels

When we hit the ground

Yeah we all fall down

Yeah we all fall down

 

He's the only one to blame and the only who knows

How low must he go to win back his soul

 

Yeah we all fall down

Yeah we all fall down

Darius Rucker - Leavin' The Light On Video

Carolina moon, lazy ol' river

Time keeps floatin' on by

Moss hanging from an oak tree

Baby it's just you and me

Sure makes one beautiful sight

We got postcard views

Curled up in this rocking chair

Feel like I ought tip my hat

To the man up stairs

Burning the whole night through

Leavin' the light on

So I can look at you

 

Your pretty brown eyes

Your legs that go forever

Still can't believe you're mine

Come on baby lets take a walk

Follow the path down to that old dock

 

And bring along that bottle of wine

That old moon's so bright

Just hang in' up there

Feel like I ought count' my blessings

And thank the man upstairs for

Darius Rucker - I Will Love You Still Lyrics

Darius Rucker - I Will Love You Still Video

Take the key off the chain

Leave it stuck in the door

Don't even try to explain

What you're leaving me for

Cause you won't cry

And you won't call

And you won't even miss me at all

 

But I will

(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)

Yeah I will

(Every second you're gone, once you go away)

I will love you still

 

Take those pictures of us

Pull 'em down off the shelf

Go wherever you want

Go, try to be somebody else

'Cause you won't stay

And you won't fight

And you won't wonder

Where I'm sleeping tonight

 

But I will

(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)

Yeah, I will

(Every second you're gone, once you go away)

You know I will love you still

 

I hope you never spend forever

Wondering if he ever

Wondering if he ever

Wondering if you ever loved me at all

 

I will

(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)

Oh, I will

(Every second you're gone, once you go away)

You know I will love you still

Oh I know, I know that I will love you still

I will love you still

Darius Rucker - Wagon Wheel Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Wagon Wheel Video

Heading down south to the land of the pines

I'm thumbing my way into North Caroline

Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights

I made it down the coast in seventeen hours

Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers

And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight

 

So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel

Hey momma rock me

Rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

Hey momma rock me

 

Running from the cold up in New England

I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band

My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now

Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down

I lost my money playing poker so I had to up and leave

But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more

 

So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel

Hey momma rock me

Rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

Hey momma rock me

 

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke

I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke

But he's a heading west from the Cumberland gap

To Johnson City, Tennessee

And I gotta get a move on before the sun

I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one

And if I died in Raleigh at least I will die free

 

So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel

Hey momma rock me

Rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

Hey momma rock me

Darius Rucker - Heartbreak Road Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Heartbreak Road Video

You've got the keys girl, I'm just a rider

Gas it up and get us outta here

Put the pedal down, I wanna fly girl

Crank it up and catch another gear

Let's go to Vegas, hit California

Or Carolina where the southern breeze blows

 

You can take me to the moon and back

I can kick my boots off, relax in your Cadillac

Baby take me anywhere you wanna go

Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no

Don't take me down Heartbreak Road

 

Baby you had me, first time I saw you

I said where you're going, take me there

Oh girl I'm in now for the long haul

You can pick the place, I don't care

 

You can take me to the moon and back

I can kick my boots off, relax in your Cadillac

Baby take me anywhere you wanna go

Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no

Don't take me down Heartbreak Road

 

We can drive all night, we don't need no plans,

Remember that you've got my heart in your hands

Let's go to Vegas, hit California

Or Carolina where the southern breeze blows

 

You can take me to the moon and back

I can kick off my boots and relax in your Cadillac

You can take me anywhere you wanna go,

Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no

 

You can take me to the moon and back

I can kick my boots off,

Just lay back in your daddy's Cadillac babe

You can take me anywhere you wanna go

Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no

Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road

Darius Rucker - Take Me Home Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Take Me Home Video

I wanna feel that ocean breeze that's got me wrapped around it's fingers

I wanna hear a southern drawl and every word that lingers

I need a sunday morning song by a just got baptized singer

I been away too long, somebody take me home

 

I need a glass of sweet sun tea brewed out in the backyard

I wanna see a kudzu vine sneaking up on a junk car

I need to sit on my old back porch 'til the world lets go of my arm

I been away too long, oh somebody take me home

 

Lord have mercy on a poor boy's soul

Crank it up and make these big wheels roll

Can you get me there by the morning light

And make everything alright

'Cause I been away too long

Oh somebody take me home

 

I love this job, I do

But my soul is wearing thin

Oh I gotta get lost in where I'm from

And find myself again

Oh I been away too long

Somebody take me home

 

I wanna waste a day with my little man throwing me that old football

Soend sometime with Daddy's girls catching up on what's going on

Then remind the woman I love just how much I miss her when I'm gone

 

Oh Lord have mercy on a poor boy's soul

Crank it up and make these big wheels roll

Can you get me there by morning light

Oh lord have mercy on my soul

Crank it up and make these big wheels roll

I wanna be there by morning light

It'll make everything alright

Cause I've been away too long

Oh, I've been away too long

Somebody please, somebody take me home

Oh home, home, home

Darius Rucker - Shine Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Shine Video

November of '43

On a boat comin' 'cross the sea

He left a boy, came back a man

She started running' when she saw his face

It'd been 655 days

Since she held his hand

He got down on one knee

And pulled out that ring

That he bought in Aberdeen

And when it hit that New York sky

 

It shined just like a spotlight

A star up in the night sky

The kind of thing that takes your breath away

Her eyes sparked like that diamond

With love beaming from 'em

The kind of light that's never gonna fade

It's gonna shine

 

For the next 55 years

Through the laughter and the tears

My grandma always fore that band

Through atom bombs and a baby boom

Dr. King and a man on the moon

No it never left her hand

On the day she passed away

Mama put it on a chain

Now and then on special days

Mom would wear it around her neck

 

It shined just like a spotlight

A star up in the night sky

The kind of thing that takes your breath away

Her eyes sparked like that diamond

With love beaming from 'em

The kind of light that's never gonna fade

It's gonna shine

 

Mama said one of these days

I'd know why she gave me that ring

Sittin' here I know she was right

Oh, it's knot the biggest stone you've ever seen

But girl I can promise you one thing

The rest of your life

 

It's gonna shine just like a spotlight

A star up in the night sky

The kind of thing that takes your breath away

Your eyes sparkled like that diamond

With love beaming from 'em

The kind of light that's never, never, never gonna fade

It's gonna shine, shine, shine

Shine, shine, shine

Shine, shine, shine

Like a beacon calling me home

It's gonna shine

Oh yeah, shine, shine, shine

Darius Rucker - Lost In You Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Lost In You Video

Spring break, tan skin

Lord I can't remember when

I fell, so fast

Knowing it could never last

 

I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean

Lost in the sunset too

I got lost in your eyes and the time

Don't you know it

Baby, I got lost in you

 

Five days, four night

A smile I will remember

For the rest of my life

How sweet was your kiss

I still taste it on my lips

 

I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean

Lost in the sunset too

I got lost in your eyes and the time

Don't you know it

Baby, I got lost in you

 

Packed car, your tears

I said girl I hate to leave you here

I'll be back, I lied

It's been all these years

I still hear your goodbye

 

I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean

Lost in the sunset too

I got lost in your eyes and the time

Don't you know it

Baby, I got lost in you

 

I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean

Lost in the sunset too, yeah

I got lost in your eyes and the time

Don't you know it

Baby I got lost in you, yeah

Darius Rucker - Miss You Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Miss You Video

Had a bottle of wine

And a perfectly fine dinner

Talked about school, work, life

And how cold it was last winter

Laid down in this big old bed

And you turned on the TV

Fell asleep without a goodnight kiss

Or even an I Love you baby

Oh baby

 

How can we go all night

And not even touch one another

And not be lovers

How did we get here

Where you can be right there

And I can be with you

And miss you

 

I remember the time

When every time you saw me you had to kiss me

Oh but lying here tonight, girl

That all just seems like ancient history

Oh what happened baby

 

How can we go all night

And not even touch one another

And not be lovers

How did we get here

Where you can be right there

And I can be with you

And miss you

 

Baby I still need you

Hold and touch you

Please say it's not the end

Oh baby please say we're not just friends

 

We can go all night

And not even touch one another no

Baby I'm, I'm still in love

So let's be lovers

You know it's not fair

That you can be right there

And I can be with you

Oh, Oh and miss you

Oh baby I, I miss you darlin'

Oh I do, oh I do, layin' right next to you

I miss you girl

Oh yeah, oh baby I miss you

Darius Rucker - Love Without You Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Love Without You Video

Every friend has got a friend in mind

'Cause I've had more than a little time

So it's on your mark, get ready, set

But I know my heart's not ready yet

 

I can walk into a room without you

And I don't get drunk and talk about you

So I guess I've learned to live without you

I just don't know how to love without you

 

She don't have to look just like you

No her eyes don't have to be that blue

It's hard to give someone a chance

When you can't get past that second dance

 

I can walk into a room without you

And I don't get drunk and talk about you

So I guess I've learned to live without you

I just don't know how to love without you

 

Sometimes the pain is dulled to numb

And I can't believe how far I've come

 

I can walk into a room without you

(I can breathe without you)

And I, I don't get drunk and talk about you no more, no more

(And I can sleep without you)

So I, I guess I've learned to live without you

(I can be without, I can be without you)

I just don't know how to love without you

(I don't know how, I don't know how)

See, see I, I had to learn to live without you

(I had to learn to live without you)

Oh but I just don't know how to, how to love, how to love without you

(Oh I just don't know, how to love, how to love without you)

 

Every friend has got a friend in mind

'Cause I've had more than a little time

Darius Rucker - Radio Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Radio Video

Seventeen, the only way I had a car

Is after I dropped my mama off where she needed to go

Four bald tires, with the ceiling famine and the window stuck

But the only thing I cared about was the radio

We'd turn it on, turn it up to ten, and everybody would jump on in

 

Ridin' down the highway

Who wants to be the DJ

I'll find a spot on the side of the road

You find somethin' on the radio

Like a feel real good song

We'll know it when it comes on

Didn't have no money, no place to go

All we needed was a radio

 

I'd grab my url, we'd look for somewhere to watch the stars

The perfect place to put it in park and take it slow

She'd sing along, to even the ones that she barely knew

She still sounded good a little outta tune, but we didn't care

I'd look at her, she' d look at me, I'll never forget that melody

 

Ridin' down the highway

Who wants to be the DJ

I'll find a spot on the side of the road

You find somethin' on the radio

Like a feel real good song

We'll know it when it comes on

Didn't have no money, no place to go

All we needed was a radio

 

Shhh, hey y'all be quit

That's my favorite song

Hey man turn it up loud

Come on, come on, come on

 

Ridin' down the highway

Who wants to be the DJ

I'll find a spot on the side of the road

You find somethin' on the radio

Like a feel real good song

We'll know it when it comes on

Didn't have no money, no place to go

All we needed was a radio

 

All we needed, all we needed now

Was a, was a, was a radio
