ALBUM: THE BEST TIME IS NOW
I intend on having a great time. Are you with me?
You want to get to know me, you’ve been waiting on a sign,
Checking your watch, babe, feeling like it’s time.
Maybe the best time is now, let's stop second-guessing,
You're all dressed up, hair perfect, no stressing.
I'm in my boots, feeling good, ready to roll,
The moon’s shining bright, it's calling to our soul.
The night is young, our hearts are too,
Baby, let’s seize this moment, just me and you.
The Best Time is Now, let’s grab our boots and find a dancing bar,
The Best Time is Now, there's one down the street, not that far.
Life is for the living, so let’s live a little,
Kick up the dust, escape the middle.
Pull up your chair, let me buy you a drink,
The band is playing that song, just let it sink.
We can laugh till we cry, dance till we drop,
With every heartbeat, let’s take it to the top.
Leave behind the troubles, let ‘em fade away,
This is our moment, come on, let’s play.
Feel the rhythm in our bones, let’s set it free,
Tonight is our canvas, babe, you and me.
The Best Time is Now, let’s grab our boots and find a dancing bar,
The Best Time is Now, there's one down the street, not that far.
Life is for the living, so let’s live a little,
Kick up the dust, escape the middle.
So don’t look back, keep your eyes on the road,
With every step we take, we’re sharing this load.
Life’s too short for waiting, this I know it’s true,
Every second’s a treasure when I’m here with you.
The Best Time is Now, let’s grab our boots and find a dancing bar,
The Best Time is Now, there's one down the street, not that far.
Life is for the living, so let’s live a little,
Kick up the dust, escape the middle.
So take my hand, let’s make it last,
Dance with me until the night has passed.
The Best Time is Now, our hearts take flight,
In this gritty world, we’ll find the light.
City lights are holding their breath,
We’re standing on the edge of time,
With pockets full of almosts and yes.
Last year’s tears are on the floor,
Like confetti we forgot to sweep,
But there’s a door we haven’t opened yet,
And a promise the heart still keeps.
[Chorus]This is going to be a Happy New Year to what we were,
And who we’re daring to become,
A happy New Year, the past lets go,
And the future starts to hum.
A Happy happy happy new year,
Under fireworks and moonlight blue,
I'll stand next to a girl I want to kiss,
I edge closer so I don't miss.
[Bridge]As the past fades into the night,
We raise our glasses to the skies,
With every cheer, we ignite the light,
Determined flames in our eyes.
The rough roads have taught us well,
We’ve climbed every mountain, run through hell,
But tonight we’re shedding every fear,
With a heart full of hope for this new year.
[Fast rock guitar lead]The streets are singing “almost there,”
Strangers laughing like old friends,
Every second falling like a spark,
Saying this is not the end.
I see the glimmer of a brand new start,
With whispers of dreams riding on the breeze,
I’ll chase those shadows, I’ll play my part,
As the world unravels, we’ll find our peace.
[Chorus]This is going to be a Happy New Year to what we were,
And who we’re daring to become,
A happy New Year, the past lets go,
And the future starts to hum.
A Happy happy happy new year,
Under fireworks and moonlight blue,
I'll stand next to a girl I want to kiss,
I edge closer so I don't miss.
[Outro]So here’s to the moments yet to be,
To the laughter, the love, and the tears,
Hold on tight as we ride this spree,
It’s time to welcome our new frontier.
With every heartbeat, we’ll draw near,
Celebrate with a promise sincere,
Here’s to the days we’re building brand new,
A Happy New Year, I’m glad to be with you.
Last year left fingerprints on my skin,
Some were gold, some wore me thin.
I chased the clock, I doubted my voice,
Forgot that every day’s a choice.
I learned the hard way, learned it slow,
What I water’s what will grow.
So I’m laying down the weight I carried,
All the “someday”s I never married.
I’m drawing a line, soft but true,
And stepping into something new.
My New Year's Resolution,
This is part of my solution.
I won’t wait to feel “ready” or right,
Until I cross one thing off that list tonight.
My New Year's Resolution is just mine,
Choose joy, everything will be fine.
This year I just stick to one,
Yeah, this could be fun.
I don’t need louder, bigger dreams,
Just honest days and quieter scenes.
More listening, less being strong,
Letting my heart sing its own song.
I’ll forgive quicker, rest when I’m tired,
Trust the spark that God inspired.
So I’m laying down the weight I carried,
All the “someday”s I never married.
I’m drawing a line, soft but true,
And stepping into something new.
My New Year's Resolution,
This is part of my solution.
I won’t wait to feel “ready” or right,
Until I cross one thing off that list tonight.
My New Year's Resolution is just mine,
Choose joy, everything will be fine.
This year I just stick to one,
Yeah, this could be fun.
Life’s a river, flowing wide,
I’m learning to drift, not always to ride.
With every sunrise, I find my rhyme,
Living today, leaving yesterday behind.
My New Year's Resolution,
This is part of my solution.
I won’t wait to feel “ready” or right,
Until I cross one thing off that list tonight.
My New Year's Resolution is just mine,
Choose joy, everything will be fine.
This year I just stick to one,
Yeah, this could be fun.
So here’s to the choices, both big and small,
My New Year's Resolution, I’ll give it my all.
Through the ups and downs, I’ll sing my song,
This year’s gonna be where I finally belong.
You put a smile on my face every time you post a clip,
I just want to join you on stage and jump this ship.
It's time to bring country to the masses,
I think I will teach this in all my classes.
Every time I hear your voice I grin,
You inspire me, and you make me wanna rock, it's no sin.
I wanna go rocking across this nation,
Catch a ride at the next station.
By car or train or just hitch a ride,
I want you right here by my side.
Let's go rocking across this nation,
It's the new life I'm facing,
Go rocking across this nation,
Rocking across this nation!
From the mountains to the plains, I feel the beat,
With a guitar in hand and boots on my feet.
We'll light up the night with our Southern sound,
With every strum and every heartbeat, we’ll shake this ground.
Like whiskey and sugar, our souls combine,
Together on this journey, it's simply divine.
I wanna go rocking across this nation,
Catch a ride at the next station.
By car or train or just hitch a ride,
I want you right here by my side.
Let's go rocking across this nation,
It's the new life I'm facing,
Go rocking across this nation,
Rocking across this nation!
Screaming guitars and the chorus that swells,
With friends and laughter, we’re ringing those bells.
In dive bars and festivals, we’ll tear up the stage,
This is our moment, let’s unleash the rage.
You know it don’t matter where we're going next,
With you by my side, this life is a trek.
Every mile that we travel brings us closer to fame,
In the heart of the action, we’ll never be tame.
So turn it up loud, let the rhythm ignite,
Tonight we’ll be rocking, we'll dance through the night.
I wanna go rocking across this nation,
Catch a ride at the next station.
By car or train or just hitch a ride,
I want you right here by my side.
Let's go rocking across this nation,
It's the new life I'm facing,
Go rocking across this nation,
Rocking across this nation!
So grab your hat and let’s hit the road,
With love in our hearts and a guitar load.
Together we’ll sing, we’ll never outgrow,
Rocking across this nation, let the whole world know!
Lyrics
I met a lady at a show, couldn’t take my eyes off her,
She had that spark, the kind that just won't blur.
Built up the courage, heart pounding like a drum,
When she turned with a smile, I knew the night had begun.
She's a wild spirit dancing under neon lights,
Every word she says, it's like magic ignites.
With a laugh so infectious, pulling me like a tide,
It felt so natural, inviting me inside.
Because she's got fire in her bones,
Just a whole lot of fire in her bones.
The way she walked, the way she talked,
I loved her hair and her eyes;
But most of all, I loved the fire in her bones.
She's got fire in her bones.
We talked 'til sunrise, under a full moon's gaze,
Every little moment, set my heart ablaze.
With stories of her dreams, and laughter that cuts deep,
She lit a flame in me, one I couldn’t keep.
She’s a hurricane whirlwind, with a smile so sly,
Every glance, every dance, makes me wanna fly.
When she twirls through the room, it’s a sight to behold,
Wrapped up in her warmth, I feel heartstrings unfold.
Because she's got fire in her bones,
Just a whole lot of fire in her bones.
The way she walked, the way she talked,
I loved her hair and her eyes;
But most of all, I loved the fire in her bones.
She's got fire in her bones.
In the quiet of the night, I catch her whisper soft,
Every breath she takes, lifts me high aloft.
With every step we take, the world fades away,
We found a love that shimmers, brighter than the day.
So here’s to the moments that we’ve yet to find,
With a soul like hers, I know love’s not blind.
Because she's got fire in her bones,
Just a whole lot of fire in her bones.
The way she walked, the way she talked,
I loved her hair and her eyes;
But most of all, I loved the fire in her bones.
She's got fire in her bones.
As we chase the dawn, with our hearts intertwined,
With her, I’ve found a love, genuine and blind.
Through storms and sunshine, we’ll dance and we’ll roam,
Forever together, with fire in her bones.
Full Circle
Lyrics
Out on this dirt road, where the shadows fall,
I found you standing there, the prettiest of them all.
With a heart that shines brighter than the morning sun,
In a world of illusions, we're finally one.
The billions of stars and the paths that they take,
Who would have thought that ours would finally awake.
To run along this journey, hand in hand,
In this life that we live, it was all in the plan.
So circle me over and over, it's true,
Circle me now with a love that's brand new.
The wheels of love are turning, oh can't you see,
Full circle we've come, you were meant to be with me.
From the stars above, like a dream you appear,
Filling up my heart, washing away all my fears.
With laughter like music, you light up my days,
In a world cold and gray, you're the warmest of rays.
Every moment with you, feels like a sweet serenade,
In this beautiful dance, our love will never fade.
I'm sending you love, like a message in the sky,
With every passing moment, I'm thankful you're nearby.
So circle me over and over, it's true,
Circle me now with a love that's brand new.
The wheels of love are turning, oh can't you see,
Full circle we've come, you were meant to be with me.
Life's a winding road, full of ups and downs,
But with you by my side, I wear my heart like a crown.
The laughter and love are the roots we grow,
In the garden of life, together we sow.
With you every sunset, feels like a dream,
Just you and me, babe, we're an unstoppable team.
So here's to the journey, the memories we share,
In this heart of mine, I'll always keep you there.
So circle me over and over, it's true,
Circle me now with a love that's brand new.
The wheels of love are turning, oh can't you see,
Full circle we've come, you were meant to be with me.
So let's drive this road, until the stars collide,
With love in our hearts, and you by my side.
Through every twist and turn, we'll both just believe,
In this beautiful life, it's together we'll achieve.
Full circle we've come, it's destiny's delight,
You and I forever under the soft moonlight.
Oh, can you still see it,
In the glow of our screens at dawn.
That flag we stood for yesterday,
Worn—but not gone.
Through the noise and the fire,
Through the breaking news nights.
We watched as it held on,
Still standing in the fight.
Oh say, does that star-spangled promise remain,
Over cities and fields, through sunshine and rain?
The land of our voices, our struggles, our dreams,
Still reaching for freedom, for justice, for peace.
In the shadows of doubt, where the road feels unclear,
We rise from the ashes, we conquer our fear.
With courage and heart, we hold on to the light,
This anthem unites us, through day and through night.
Oh say, does that star-spangled promise remain,
Over cities and fields, through sunshine and rain?
The land of our voices, our struggles, our dreams,
Still reaching for freedom, for justice, for peace.
So lift up your hands, let the spirit take flight,
Together we stand, through the dark and the bright.
In this melody, we find our way home,
In the land of the brave, we are never alone.
Oh say, does that star-spangled promise remain,
Over cities and fields, through sunshine and rain?
The land of our voices, our struggles, our dreams,
Still reaching for freedom, for justice, for peace.
With hope in our hearts, we will carry this tune,
For the stars and the stripes, we keep singing our boon.
This anthem of unity, forever we'll raise,
In the spirit of love, we’ll sing all our days.
I learned to play guitar in a quiet room,
Dust on the floor, just me and the tune.
No stage lights then, no screaming names,
Just a creaky young voice and a windowpane.
Mama said, "Child, you’ve got a gift,"
But I played it low, like a secret hymn.
I sang to the walls, I sang to the air,
Never thought the world would be standing there.
I just want to sing, I just want to sing,
I don't need to be famous, I don't need a thing,
Not looking for riches or fame,
Just a strong melody that wraps around my brain.
I just want to sing, a song that sticks in your head,
I just want to sing until I am dead.
Now I'm on the road, kicking up dust,
Rolling through towns, in music I trust.
Grit in my voice and fire in my soul,
With every chord played, I’m feeling whole.
City to city, I spill my heart,
Every strum I make is a brand new start.
No frills, just grit, the crowd’s alive,
Singing along, oh, just feel that vibe.
I just want to sing, I just want to sing,
I don't need to be famous, I don't need a thing.
Not looking for riches or fame,
Just a strong melody that wraps around my brain.
I just want to sing, a song that sticks in your head,
I just want to sing until I am dead.
So raise your glass to the nights we own,
When the music calls, it feels like home.
With guitars blazing, and spirits high,
We chase the daylight, never asking why.
Just living for this moment, this gritty life,
Under fading stars, you can feel the strife.
In the shadows, we ignite our fire,
With every melody, we reach higher.
I just want to sing, I just want to sing,
I don't need to be famous, I don't need a thing.
Not looking for riches or fame,
Just a strong melody that wraps around my brain.
I just want to sing, a song that sticks in your head,
I just want to sing until I am dead.
So when I’m gone and the music fades,
Remember this heart, the songs we made.
No regrets, just the freedom to ring,
With every heartbeat, I just want to sing.
I was raised on cornbread, coffee, and pie,
Mama’s kitchen, screen door, summer fly.
Thought I’d tasted sweet till a stranger passed,
A golden little triangle wrapped in glass.
First bite cracked like a front porch swing,
Butter and nuts did a two-step thing,
Honey dripped slow like a Georgia drawl,
Lord have mercy, I fell in love right there in the hall.
God I Love Baklava, you honey-soaked dream,
Layers of heaven stacked in between.
God I Love Baklava, yeah you don’t just stay,
You linger like a song that won’t fade away.
God I really Love Baklava, pie, and grandma’s fudge,
But baklava, baby, you don’t budge.
God I Love Baklava to the core of my soul,
You’re sugar and story and a sweet kind of whole.
Took a bite while the stars painted the sky,
Sitting on the porch with my lady by my side.
Every layer speaks of a tale from afar,
Baklava, my love, you’re the shining star.
You’re buttery soft, and a little bit nutty,
Turning every day into something so sunny.
From a dive in town to a big city feast,
Baklava, darling, you’re my heart’s sweet beast.
God I Love Baklava, you honey-soaked dream,
Layers of heaven stacked in between.
God I Love Baklava, yeah you don’t just stay,
You linger like a song that won’t fade away.
God I really Love Baklava, pie, and grandma’s fudge,
But baklava, baby, you don’t budge.
God I Love Baklava to the core of my soul,
You’re sugar and story and a sweet kind of whole.
Now every gathering feels like a feast,
With you by my side, my heart’s released.
From summer picnics to winter nights,
Baklava, you shine in all the lights.
So raise a glass to the sweet little treat,
With every bite, it’s life so sweet.
God I Love Baklava, let the music play,
You’re the rhythm of my heart, in every way.
Lyrics
He rides in at sunset, dust on his boots,
Broad shoulders filling up that barroom booth,
Sun-kissed skin, forearms strong,
Looks like trouble wrapped in a country song.
That hair hangs low down the middle of his back,
Moves like a wild horse he never could track,
Every head turns when he walks on by,
Even the neon stops to catch his eye.
He don’t say much, but he don’t need to,
That quiet smile does all the talkin’ too.
Long hair, lean, and leather tough,
Built like a prayer and strong enough,
To make a screen door swing off the frame,
And make a good girl forget her name.
He’s got a slow drawl, a sinner’s grin,
Looks like he stepped out of a western hymn,
Yeah, hearts fall hard when he walks through,
That long-haired, muscle-bound cowboy view.
Whiskey and laughter fill the smoky room,
But there’s magic in the moment, a sweet perfume.
He’s like wildfire dancing in the night,
With every glance, he ignites sparks so bright.
Golden guitar strummin' in the back,
As he leans against the wall, lost in his track,
Like an outlaw's story that the bar can’t contain,
Every laugh becomes a sweet refrain.
Not a word spoken, but the tension’s real,
A ghost of a memory, impossible to conceal.
Long hair, lean, and leather tough,
Built like a prayer and strong enough,
To make a screen door swing off the frame,
And make a good girl forget her name.
He’s got a slow drawl, a sinner’s grin,
Looks like he stepped out of a western hymn,
Yeah, hearts fall hard when he walks through,
That long-haired, muscle-bound cowboy view.
He’s a storm of grit, a heart so free,
In a world that’s wild, he rides with glee,
With every heartbeat, he owns the night,
That long-haired cowboy feels just right.
Long hair, lean, and leather tough,
Built like a prayer and strong enough,
To make a screen door swing off the frame,
And make a good girl forget her name.
He’s got a slow drawl, a sinner’s grin,
Looks like he stepped out of a western hymn,
Yeah, hearts fall hard when he walks through,
That long-haired, muscle-bound cowboy view.
So here’s to the cowboy, wild and free,
With a heart full of dreams and a spirit of glee,
Long-haired and rugged, he’s making his way,
In this country song, he’s here to stay.
Lyrics
I’ve got a barn full of iron, all lined side by side,
Red ones, blue ones, Allis Chalmers inside.
They’ve all pulled their weight through the dust and the years,
But there's one that shines greener, in my eyes, it clears.
When the sun starts to rise, and the morning dew glows,
I fire up that engine, watch how it flows.
It’s a symphony of power, proud and loud,
With every rev and rumble, man, I stand out in the crowd.
God I love my John Deere tractor more than the others I've had,
Green paint, yellow wheels, oh it makes me so glad.
I’ve driven a few, and owned many a brand,
But that Deere understands the soul of my land.
From dawn to dark, through many a long year,
God I love that John Deere tractor; it brings back my tears.
Through the fields I wander, with my trusted friend,
Tilling the soil, from start to the end.
That powerful grip, it won’t let me down,
In mud or in sunshine, it wears the crown.
Harvest moon shining, the stars up above,
Driving home with the scent of my sweet country love.
Memories are made under skies so vast,
Each journey I’ve taken, this bond is built to last.
God I love my John Deere tractor more than the others I've had,
Green paint, yellow wheels, oh it’s just so rad.
I’ve driven a few, and owned many a brand,
But that Deere understands the soul of my land.
From dawn to dark, through many a long year,
God I love that John Deere tractor; it brings back my tears.
So when the seasons change and the harvest is near,
I jump on my Deere, feel that love, feel that cheer.
Every turn of the wheel writes a story, you see,
It’s more than a machine; it’s a part of me.
Life’s simple pleasures, like the sound of a tune,
Singing songs with my tractor beneath the blue moon.
God I love my John Deere tractor more than the others I've had,
Green paint, yellow wheels, the memories we've clad.
I’ve driven a few, and owned many a brand,
But that Deere understands the spirit of my land.
From dawn to dark, through many many years,
God I love that John Deere tractor; it wipes away my fears.
So here’s to the fields, to the dirt and the sky,
To the laughter and love, as the seasons go by.
With my John Deere beside me, I know I’m blessed,
In the heart of this country, it's where I find rest.
