V1
Ought to make this right
Ought to let you down easy
Baby I don’t want to fight
But I can’t stay one more night And I don’t want to treat you mean
Yeah you say it’s fine
But you’re begging and pleading
I got one foot out the door
The other you’ve nailed to the floor And I don’t want to treat you mean
CHORUS
Everything you do for me is great
All the pretty flowers and the fancy dates But you’re taking up my time
Feeling like a nine to five
And it’s quitting time
V2
Baby it was good
You made me feel just like a woman should But now I can’t stand you at all
I’m throwing *** against the walls
Don’t want to treat you mean
So I’ll pull away
Wish I had some better words to say I fall short of what you need
Baby I’m just trying to be honest
Set me free
BUILD
Set me free x11

CHORUS
Any day now
Any day now
My baby comes home to me X2
V1
He wrote me in his letters
He forgives me for what I’ve done
And I’m gonna give it to him good
Just that he’s my only one
CHORUS
V2
That man drives me crazy
His crooked teeth and his crooked smile
And I’m gonna give it to him good
Just that it’s been such a long, long while
CHORUS
Sweet Lovin’
CHORUS
Give me your sweet loving
Your sweet loving now
Give me your sweet loving
I don’t know how
X2
V1
Happy as can be
As I follow your dancing feet
And I just keep on wondering how
How I’m supposed to live without this
CHORUS
V2
Took me by surprise
With those castles in your eyes
And I just keep on wondering how
And I can’t put my finger on it

Over
V1
I am happy in a small town
I want to breathe mountain air
Some believe in second chances
But I say fair is fair
You like living in the city
Where the air is nice and warm
Everybody’s got their problems
But I can’t fix yours anymore
So I’m walking out that door
CHORUS
It was over when it started It was over
It was over when it started It was over
V2
You were always one for living
Rolling deep and running high
Maybe it was just the season
That led you down the line
Down to Mississippi
Down to Mexico
Going fast and far away
Far from all you know
Pack your bags get goin’
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I’ve lost everything I’m trying to
Get back on my feet I really
Need some time to think I need to
Get back on my feet X2

Dirty Dogs

CHORUS
I need a man more than a dog
Someone stronger than me, in it for the long haul
I’d be good, I’d be grand
If I found me a real man
V1
Mister Blue, no he couldn’t stay true
Ran around on me with my best friend and sister too
Though he cried, though he apologized
He was a dirty dog
He was a dirty dog
He was a dirty dog
CHORUS
V2
Mister Green, not as nice as he seemed
Stole all my money and gambled it all away
Though he begged, though he pleaded
He was a dirty dog
He was a dirty dog
He was a dirty dog
CHORUS
V3
Mister Red, he was pretty good in bed
But everything that came out of that man’s mouth was a bold faced lie Though he hung around, tried to put me down
He was a dirty dog
He was a dirty dog
He was a dirty dog

And I can’t put my finger on it

V1
Running running running as fast as I can
Tryna catch my baby in the promised land
I’ve been up all week, been up all night
Don’t take much if you do it right
I ain’t got no money, just my pride
And I’m letting it go tonight
CHORUS
All night, all night party
All night, all night party
All night, I want to party with you
All night, I want to party with you
V2
Waiting for the weekend when the lights go out
Drinking my whiskey til the bottle runs out
Yeah I ride it easy, ride it slow
Just like they do it down in Mexico
I ain’t got no problems, just my pride
And I’m letting that go tonight
CHORUS
V3
Stumbling around by the light of the moon
I’m dressed up like a coyote in a bunny suit
I wiggle my way down into the sand
Hunting for a dog that walks like a man
I take my aim and I fire a round
Hot dog I got one! Baby let’s get down.
Get down Get down Get down Get down Get down
Get up Get up Get up Get up Get up
CHORUS
