"Between Raising Hell And Amazing Grace" (2007)

Faster Than Angels Fly Lyrics – Big & Rich

A modern day Romeo and Juliet
American Tragedy
Low rent, high-rise lovers who met at the end of
Coronado Street
Crucifixes made in California gold
Two worlds bought to collide
Heaven can't help you if you go
Faster than angels fly

[Chorus:]
Well they burn the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flame
Making love and making plans
Diving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

Ghost-haunted barrio in Hollywood
Graffiti stained wailin' wall
Dead-end street gang up to no good
Out to make a retribution call
Sweet innocence caught in crossfire's fate
Too late to draw the line
Bullets can blow your dreams away
Faster than angels fly

[Chorus:]
Well they burn the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flame
Making love and making plans
Diving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

They were still holding hands
when all hell broke loose
They both left this world
with more than most truth lovers do

[Chorus:]
Well they burn the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flame
Making love and making plans
Diving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

Lost In This Moment Lyrics – Big & Rich

I see your momma and the candles
and the tears and roses
I see your daddy walk his daughter down the aisle
I feel my knees start to tremble as I tell the preacher
Don't she look beautiful tonight

All the wonderful words in my head I've been thinkin'
You know I wanna say them all just right
I lift your veil and angels start singin'
Such a heavenly sight

[Chorus:]
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
there's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waiting my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you

I smell the jasmine floatin' in the air like a love song
Watch my words draw sweet tears from your eyes
We bow our heads while the preacher talks to Jesus
Please bless this brand new life

[Chorus x2]

Between Raising Hell And Amazing Grace Lyrics – Big & Rich

I was raised by the good book
learned to work hard every day
Thought that if you can't say something good
there's nothing good to say
And I caught on pretty early it's no use to work
no harder than you play
So I guess that's how I ended up this way

[Chorus:]
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy trying to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace

Well I give everything I got, try to give more than I take
For Heaven's sake I keep on smiling
no matter what comes my way
And I may be passin' out on Friday night
But come Sunday I'll be passing the collection plate

[Chorus:]
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy trying to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace

Yeah I know I'm a sinner, but I've got faith
Oh my good side is what he's gonna see
When I'm standing at them Pearly Gates
He'll have nothing but mercy for me

[Chorus:]
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy trying to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace

Eternity Lyrics – Big & Rich

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

Doing all I can to make things better
Everything I can to get things right
Baby when you're with me it's a little mroe like Heaven
Here in my mind, here in my mind

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

Just can't let this old world get us down
There's too much beauty in this life
It should be so perfect
We shouldn't know we've made it to the other side
When we make it to the other side

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

Oh you know it's got to be so beautiful
Oh and everyone is so free
Love, love is the only thing there is between you and me

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

When The Devil Gets The Best Of Me Lyrics – Big & Rich

Sometimes whiskey, sometimes pills
The silly things I need to get my thrills
Sometimes women are like cocaine
Got to have 'em more and more every day

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

I've left heartaches thought they'd mend
I know how to lose some real good friends
I get angry, I stay mad
Can't get happy with this life I have

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

Now I'm a little wiser than I was back then
But still I'm stumblin' every day
Trying to walk a little straighter
Trying to find a way to forgive

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

Radio Lyrics – Big & Rich

On the road making noise
Rocking hard for all the girls and boys
We got the groove we got the songs
Our kinda music makes you sing along
Well jump on up in your chair
Everybody throw your hands up in the air
You're gonna scream until it hurts
You know you're gonna get your dollar's worth well

[Chorus:]

We like our fiddles and our guitars loud

[Chorus:]

You Never Stop Loving Somebody Lyrics – Big & Rich

It's complicated, when love has faded
And you can't hold on anymore
You gotta let go even though you know
Your heart's gonna hate it
And it just might break it

[Chorus:]
You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

The only solution, is making the conclusion
That it's just another lesson in life
Even though it's over,
it's never really over at goodbye
No matter how hard you try

[Chorus:]
You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

No matter what you say or what you do
Even when you find somebody new

[Chorus:]
You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

Start loving somebody else

High Five Lyrics – Big & Rich

Run.
And I will run with you
Faster than light can move
And as far as you want to

Wings.
Maybe we don’t have wings
But we can do anything, anything

Look at me, I’m dreamin’
I just gave the moon a high five
Don’t you know that freedom
Freedom is a place in your mind!

Laugh.
I’ll laugh and cry with you
Until the grass turns blue
And the sky bright green
‘Cuz I, I don’t want anything
Less than everything, here with you

Look at me, I’m dreamin’
I just gave the moon a high five
Don’t you know that freedom
Freedom is a place in your mind!

And if we let goooo,
(If we let go)
Maybe we’ll rise,
(Maybe we’ll rise)
Up to the clouds,
(Up to the clouds)
And find a new high

Baby let go
Baby let go
Baby let go
Baby let go

Look at me, I’m dreamin’
I just gave the moon a high five.

Please Man Lyrics – Big & Rich (feat. Wyclef Jean)

Please man
Don't call the police man
Why can't we just be friends
And try to get along
I don't wanna hurt no one
I just wanna have a little fun
So I'm begging you please man
Don't call the police man

I didn't know the stereo was playin' so loud
I didn't know the go-go girls were dancing
It's outta sight (outta sight), it's all right (all right)
So let me get you a cold Red Stripe

Please man
Don't call the police man
Why can't we just be friends
And try to get along (we don’t like those country rappers)
I don't wanna hurt no one
I just wanna have a little fun
So I'm begging you please man
Don't call the police man

I didn’t mean to cause a scene or make anyone mad
For goodness sake, no need to hate, we were just playin’
So count to ten, do it again, you do anything you like

Please man
Don't call the police man
Why can't we just be friends
And try to get along (we don’t like those country rappers)
I don't wanna hurt no one
I just wanna have a little fun
So I'm begging you please man
Don't call the police man

[Wyclef:]
Check my country swagger, I dress in black like the late Johnny Cash, Stash more cash than Willie Nelson, why you
undercover guys we can split the profits man, I'm a gambler like Kenny Rogers, my T-shirt says "the devil went down to
Georgia" like Charlie Daniels -- yea haw, Back in the crib I'm watchin' Reba, I hear the helicopters, police bust the door
down, I'm in court gettin' judges by the Judds, I got acquitted 'cause they love them cowboys, cowgirls call me Wyclef Jean
with those Big & Rich boys...

Be friends and try to get along
I don't want to hurt no one
I just wanan have a little fun
So I'm begging you please man
Don't call the police man
So I'm begging you please man
Don't call the policeman

You Shook Me All Night Long Lyrics – Big & Rich

She was a fast machine,
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman that I’ve ever seen
Had the sightless eyes
Tellin’ me no lies
Knockin’ me out with those American thighs
Takin’ more than her share,
Had me fightin’ for air
She told me to come, but I was already there
And the walls start shakin’, the earth was quakin’
My mind was achin’
And we were makin’ it and

[Chorus:]
You shook me all night long
Yeah honey you shook me all night long

Workin’ double-time
On the seduction line
She was one of a kind, Just mine all mine
Wanted no applause,
Just another course
Made a meal outta me and come back for more
Had to cool me down
To take another round
Now I’m back in the ring to take another swing
And the walls were shakin’, the earth was quakin’
My mind was achin’
And we were makin’ it and

[Repeat Chorus]

[Repeat Chorus]

Loud Lyrics – Big & Rich

LOssen up shout it out, in the house
Stomp your feet, clap your hands come on

We're all abut tradition, we dont mind the twang
We've got just one condition now

"Comin' To Your City" (2005)

The Freak Parade Lyrics – Big & Rich

Somebody's got to be unafraid to lead the freak parade
Somebody's got to be unafraid to lead the freak parade
Somebody's got to be unafraid to lead the freak parade
To lead the freak, to lead the freak, to lead the freak parade.

Comin' To Your City Lyrics – Big & Rich

[Chorus:]
Well we're comin to your city
Gonna play our guitars and sing you a country song
We'll all be flyin higher than a jet air liner
And if you want a little bang in your ying yang come along

Well we flew through Cincinnati
And we all got really happy
Grabbed a bowl of that Skyline Chili along the way
Then we rolled on into Canton
Scared the hell out of Marilyn Manson
And the party started happenin
Hey hey hey

Then in the middle of a Charleston night
We ran into Jesco White
And a little moonshine got us right plum smacked insane

[Chorus]

Well we broke down in Greenville
In the middle of a hayfield
But a Bud Light truck pulled up and helped us out

So we then headed up to Philly
Partied down like real hillbillies
Brought the Music Mafia
And rocked it out

And Chippewa's where we go
When we're up in Buffalo
Don't you know those yankees drink enough to DROWN

[Chorus]

Listen up
Now LA's got the freaks
At Pink's and 15 dollar drinks
And San Antonio was a wild wild rodeo

And then Phoenix, Arizona
We drank way too much Corona
And we woke up by the river
In Jeff City, MO

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah
We're comin to your city
We're gonna play our guitars and sing you a country song
We'll all be flyin higher than a jet air liner
And if you want a little bang in your ying yang
If you wanna little zing in your zang zang
If you wanna little ting in your tang tang
Come along, come along, come along, come along

Yeah, we're comin to your city

Soul Shaker Lyrics – Big & Rich

Baby don't you know I'm a real soul shaker
Baby don't you know I'm gonna catch your world on fire
Gonna take you so high we'll be tearing a hole in the sky
I'm a dynamite daddy, I'll put the rhythm in your blues
I'm not a wishy washy boy like you're ude to

[Chorus:]
I'm a real soul shaker
I'm a true love maker
I'm a giver and a taker
Yeah, when I give you what I got, you're going to rock
Ain't gonna wam bam, thank you ma'am
I ain't gonna be just another heart breaker
Baby don't you know I'm a real soul shaker

Momma always said, I'd run into a girl like you.
Sweet and smart and stronger than a hundred proof.
You're so fine you'd make a bulldog break his chain.
I gonna wrap you up in love like a hurricane.
And blow you away.

[Chorus]

You're like perfect peaches in a tree
(you're like perfect peaches in a tree)
You won't find a better honeybee
A better honey be then me, cuz

[Chorus]

I'm a true love maker
I'm a girlfriend taker
Yeah, when I give you what I got, you're going to rock
Ain't gonna wam bam, thank you ma'am
I ain't gonna be just another heart breaker
Baby don't you know I'm a real soul shaker

Never Mind Me Lyrics – Big & Rich

If you see me on the street, lookin' like I ain't slept in a week, hey
Don't worry baby
Find me closing down the bar, catch me crawlin' to my car, her
Just look the other way
And if I'm by myself with a twisted face fillin up on comfortable space

[Chorus]
Never mind me
(I'll be just fine talkin' to myself)
Never mind me
(Sittin' all alone inside my personal hell)
I'm just doing fine
Never mind me

Well if you can't comprehend why I'd be kissin' your best friend, her
Just keep on walkin' baby
'Cause when you're sittin' on the edge of a twenty story ledge, oh
Well don't try to save me, no
I'm probably lookin' at tje sky just tryin' to find a reason why

[Chorus]

Don't remind me I'm not crazy
Don't rewind me and replay me
I'm just fine

[Chorus]

Caught Up In The Moment Lyrics – Big & Rich

She was sittin' at a bar in LAX, readin' Cosmo "how to have good sex"
When she saw him walking through the security check
Well she gave him a wink, said, "come over here, hey hey good lookin'
Can I buy you a beer?" It's like Nelly said, "It's gettin hot in here!"
She said, "I'm headin' out to Vegas on a 747 in 35 minutes down at gate 11
If you wanna get lucky I'll take you to Heaven
He said, "I got a million dollar meeting up in New York City
If I ain't there it'll be a cryin' pity, but somethin' 'bout you's too damn pretty!"

[Chorus:]

Yeah, they got a caught up in the moment, couldn't help themselves
They got caught up in the moment, got wild as hell
It was everything they wanted right then and there
They got caught up in the moment, caught up, caught up

At 20,000 feet on a South West flight she whispered to him, "We ain't got all night"
So he reached up and turned off the overhead light
And by the time they landed sure enough it was more than lust, but less then love
Ther were full-fledged members of the "you know what club"!

[Chorus]

He was 10 grand up at a blackjack table, she was dressed to the nines
Drinkin' fine Black Lable he said, "I think I'm gonna cash out and buy you a diamond ring"
So they headed down the strip to the wedding chapel in a stretch limousine that was
Candy Apple, got married by a preacher man that looked just like the king!

[Chorus]

Filthy Rich Lyrics – Big & Rich

Everybody's trying to get filthy rich off of somebody else's money
Grandma worked her whole life sewing at a shirt factory
She was saving for retirement, she had 'em take a little out every week
But then a big man up in a high rise, he cashed in his options and run
Well, took all her money and buddy that ain't funny
Now Granny's work will never be done

[Chorus:]
'Cause, everybody's trying to get filthy rich off somebody else's money
Hey, me and my friends we were talking 'bout that, ole Freddy, Bill and Sonny
How with all my brains and all your cash, we could make a million, you can bet your ass
Everybody's trying to get filthy rich off of someone else's money

I saw a preacher on the TV with big diamond rings on his hand
He was begging for some money, he said to send us every penny you can
I guess the good Lord's got a mortgage and a payment on yacht in the Keys
So we better keep sending our hard earned living to those God fearing folks on TV

[repeat the Chorus]

Yeah with all my brains and all your cash, we could make a million, you can bet your ass
Everybody's trying to get filthy rich off of someone else's money
Everybody's trying to get big and rich off of someone esle's money

Jalapeno Lyrics – Big & Rich

Well I got a girlfriend, her name is Maria
Sexy, spicy hot senorita
She like to two-step, she like to mambo
Heats it up like a Texas jalapeno
Whoo
Jalapeno Man
Whoo
Well I get so hot everytime I kiss her
Spin me around like an Amarillo twister
So I take her fore a ride in my El Camino
You know I like my ladies hot - like Jalapeno
Whoo
Jalapeno brother
Whoo
Say everybody wanna heat it up, wanna eat it up
Wanna sing along with me, Big and Rich is where the party be
Say everybody wanna heat it up, wanna eat it up
Wanna sing along with me Big and Rich is where the party, where the party be!
Well my baby lets the tequila do the talkin'
Long as she knows that everybody's watchin
Shakin' that thing like a wild bandito
You know she burns the whole place up like jalapeno
Whoo
Jalapeno man
Whoo
Jalapeno whoo
Jalapeno brother

20 Margaritas Lyrics – Big & Rich

There's a boy named Billy
He's from up there in Virginia
He makes that lightnin' holler in them hills
He's got a recipe handed down from his pappy
In a shiny 50-gallon copper still
There's a boy name Jose
Makes the best guacamole
And the hottest hot tamales in the land
He knows how to grow habeneros
And he plays in the mariachi band

[Chorus:]

I'll trade you 20 Margaritas for your moonshine
'Cause I like to have a party all the time
I'll trade you 20 margaritas for your moonshine
'Cause I hear that stuff can really blow your mind

When Jose met Billy he was tequila crazy
In a honky tok getting cowboy drunk on a moonlight starry night
Jose said, "Billy we ought to have us a party
ANd invite all them senoritas and just watch that full moon shine"

[Chorus]

Now Jose and Billy became the best of buddies
And rasied a lot of hell around the world
But they'll never drink and drive cause they wanna stay alive
And have time to kiss all the lovely girls

[Chorus]

Oh I hear that stuff can really blow your mind

Leap Of Faith Lyrics – Big & Rich

I put myself on a limb
And I feel it giving way from the weight of the rain
If I brake or I bend
I get myself together again, put my face to the wind

[Chorus:]
It might be a long, long way to my golden day
That's a chance I'm willing to take
There's no chain, no cage that I won't brake
In this long, long leap of faith
I close my eyes
And I walk right to the edge, throw my hand up to the sky
Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to live this life through my dreaming eyes

[Chorus]

TO a rocket I've been tied, I'm ready for the screaming ride
It's full of fuel and I just lit the fuse
I'm a raging burning ring of fire and I get hotter as I get higher
And I'm tearing a hole right through this sky of blue
Oh, There's no chain no cage that I won't break
In this long, long leap of faith
To a rocket I've been tied, I'm ready for the screaming ride
It's full of fuel and I just lit the fuse
I'm a raging burning ring of fire and I get hotter as I get higher
And I'm tearing a hole right through this sky of blue
I'm a raging burning ring of fire and I get hotter as I get higher
And I'm tearing a hole right through this sky of blue
I'm a raging burning ring of fire and I get hotter as I get higher
And I'm tearing a hole right through this sky of blue
In this long, long leap of faith.

I Pray For You Lyrics – Big & Rich

Sometimes when I sleep
I can see you walkin' back to me
Sometimes I wake up
'Cause I swear I felt your touch
Then emotions over come me
And the darkness is so cold

[Chorus]

I light a candle, watch it burn
I feel the angels come and fill this room
Oh, when you're gone I miss you so much
I do the only thing I can do
I pray for you
I pray for you

Every minute of the day
I can clearly see your face
And every minute we're apart
Oh, you know it just breaks my heart
I'm so lonely, but I'm OK
'Ccause I know we'll be together again

[Chorus]

Oh, I pray for you
Please hold her and protect her
'Til she's back here in my arms again
Oh and Tell her how I love her
And I'll be waitin' right here forever, AMEN
I feel the angels come and fill this room
Oh, when you're gone I miss you so much
I do the only thing I can do
I pray for you
I pray for you

Blow My Mind Lyrics – Big & Rich

Tell me brother, sisters do you listen when it rains
Are you worried something's going to end it all today
Is there anything that you had wished that you had said
Or is it all just bouncing like a buble in your head
Run, run 'til you're far away
Run, run 'til you're far away
'Cause if you want to blow my mind
Blow my mind, blow my mind
If you want to blow my mind
Blow my mind, blow my mind

[Chorus:]

Boom boom diddy diddy
Boom boom diddy diddy
Boom boom diddy diddy
Hey!
Boom boom diddy diddy
Boom boom diddy diddy
Boom boom diddy diddy boom
Hey!

Heart's a moter bigger than a super nova train
Shame it's got to deal with all the demons in your brain
Tell me when you're ready we can kiss and say goodbye
Or if you want to, me and a few friends are gonna fly
Run, run 'til you're far away
Run, run 'til you're far away
'Cause if you want to blow my mind
Blow my mind, blow my mind
If you want to blow my mind
Blow my mind, blow my mind

[Chorus]

If you want to blow my mind it's time for you to start the show
If you want to blow my mind it's time for you to let it go

[Chorus]

Slow Motion Lyrics – Big & Rich

I got a crack in my windshield
I know exactly how it feels
It's comin' apart the hard way
It gets a little more shattered each day

[Chorus:]

Oh oh oh, I'm breaking slow motion
Oh oh oh, how did it hit me so fast
It hurts so bad, it hurts so bad
Somebody tell me how long it will last
'Cause oh oh oh, I'm breaking in slow motion
Feels like I'm frozen in a dream
I can't run, can't even scream
I'm trying to fight but I can't get my fist up
How does somebody get so messed up

[Chorus]

Let go, let go
Why can't I make myself do it
I don't know
Oh...

[Chorus]

Oh oh oh, I'm breaking in slow motion

8th Of November Lyrics – Big & Rich

Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota
To fight for the red, white and blue
He was 19 and green with a new M-16
Just doing what he had to do
He was dropped in the jungle where the choppers would rumble
With the smell of napalm in the air
And the sergeant said...look up ahead
Like a dark evil cloud, 1,200 came down on him and 29 more
They fought for their lives but most of them died in the 173rd Airborne

[Chorus:]
On the 8th of November the angels were crying
As they carried his brothers away
With the fire raining down and the hell all around
There were few men left standing that day
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky
1965, the 8th of November

Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray
But the battle still plays in his head
He limps when he walks but he's strong when he talks
About the Shrapnel they left in his leg
He puts on a gray suit over his Airborne tattoo
And he ties it on one time a year
And remembers the fallen as he orders a tall one
And swallows it down with his tears

[Chorus]

Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky
1965...
On the 8th of November the angels were crying
As they carried his brother away
With the fire raining down and the hell all around
There were few men left standing that day

[Chorus]

Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota
TO fight for the red, white and blue
He was nineteen and green with a new M-16
Just doing what he had to do

"Horse Of A Different Color" (2004)

Rollin' (The Ballad Of Big & Rich) Lyrics – Big & Rich

Brother and sisters
We are here for one reason
And one reason alone
To share our love of music
I present to you
Country music without prejudice, hey

Country boys don't rock and roll
Yeah the record man told me so
Yeah you'll never get it on the radio
Why they trying to complicate
The simple music that we make
Oh cause if it moves my soul
I'm gonna keep on rollin, rollin

Hey, just wanna hear everybody sing (rollin', rollin')
At the top of your lungs till the windows break (rollin', rollin')
Say hey, hey, hey

I ain't gonna shut my mouth
Don't mind if I stand out in a crowd
Just wanna live outloud
Well I know there's got to be
A few hundred million more like me
Just trying to keep it free, yeah

Hey, just wanna hear everybody sing (rollin', rollin')
At the top of your lungs till the windows break (rollin', rollin')
Say hey, hey, hey

Charlie Pride was the man in black
Rock and roll use to be about Johnny Cash
Yeah whatcha think about that
Well I'm a crazy son-of -a-(bad word)
But I know I'm gonna make it big and rich
Yeah im gonna let it rip

Hey, just wanna hear everybody sing (rollin', rollin')
At the top of your lungs till the windows break (rollin', rollin')
Say hey, cowboy Troy

[Cowboy Troy]
Dum-diggity-dum, diggity-diggity-dum dig this
Slicker than the grease from a BBQ Briskit
Got more chunk than a fresh potato salad
You thought you had your answer
But your answer was invalid
Your looking at me crazy cause you think I'm loco
The big black cowboy, with the crazy vocal
Todas las personas gritando arriva
Now you heard it, now I know you a believer
Esta cancion es para toda la gente
Es muy importante a usar su mente
So let go of all your preconcieved notions
Get up on your feet and put your body in motion
Cause back home we love to dance
We could be two-stepin, or ravin' to trance
And when the party is crunk, the girls back it up
We got the systems in the cars and the 20's on the trucks
6 foot four with a cowboy hat
I dont mess around, yo what's up with that
I'm cowboy troy, a texas hick
And I'm rollin with the brothers
Big and Rich

Go cowboy go cowboy go
Go cowboy go cowboy go

Hey, just wanna hear everybody sing (rollin', rollin')
At the top of your lungs till the windows break (rollin', rollin')
Say hey, hey, hey

Hey, just wanna hear everybody sing (rollin', rollin')
At the top of your lungs till the windows break (rollin', rollin')
Say hey, hey, hey

Wild West Show Lyrics – Big & Rich

I'm feelin' like Tonto,
Ridin' a Pinto,
Tryin' to chase the Lone Ranger down.
I'm a little unravelled,
But I'm still in the saddle,
Cryin' your name out to the clouds,
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Why don't you meet me,
Back at the tepee?
We'll lay down by the camp fire.
There, in the dark night,
We'll smoke the peace pipe,
Forget about who's wrong or right.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Yeah, it was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
I don't wanna see us go,
The way of the buffalo:
Don't wanna have another wild west show.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Only forgiveness,
Will finally end this.
There won't be a witness if we both fall.
There's never a hero,
In a battle of egos.
There's never a winner of the quick draw.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Yeah, it was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
Don't wanna see us go,
The way of the buffalo:
Don't wanna have another wild west show.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

It's like a ghost town,
Without you around.
Why can't we just forget it,
Ride off in the sunset?

It was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
I don't wanna see us go,
The way of the buffalo:
Don't wanna have another wild west show.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

I'm feelin' like Tonto,
Ridin' a Pinto,
Tryin' to chase the Lone Ranger down.

Big Time Lyrics – Big & Rich

My hair might be a little to long
For your taste my friend
My car might cost a little less
Then that suit your wearing
I'm glad you stumbled in here on your business trip
Before you close your tab
Remember I play for tips
Well I bet your wife is beautiful
And your a really big so-and-so
Well I'm not doing bad myself
Hey friend don't you know

I play guitar
And I sing my songs in the sunshine
Captain and cokes and bar room jokes
Keep me feeling fine
And there's always a stage
And a beautiful babe to squeeze my lime
In my simple way
Guess you could say
I'm living in the big time

I know I'll probably never make a million buck
But saving accounts and the IRS
Never worry me much
I don't need that stuff
Cause I've got friends like you
To buy me drinks, have boats and planes that I can use
I know your really living
In that house up on the hill
So if you feel like giving
Friend I've got a jar to fill

I play guitar
And I sing my songs in the sunshine
Captain and cokes and bar room jokes
Keep me feeling fine
And there's always a stage
And a beautiful babe to squeeze my lime
In my simple way
Guess you could say
I'm living in the big time

I'm having the time of my life
No worries on my mind
Everything's just fine
Today is even better than yesterday
Everything's going my way
I'm living in the big time

And there's always a stage
And a beautiful babe to squeeze my lime
In my simple way
Guess you could say
I'm living in the big time

In my simple way
Guess you could say
I'm living in the big time

Kick My Ass Lyrics – Big & Rich

Well I walked up to the bar
I laid down my platinum card
Then I ordered fifty longnecks for my new friends
Well the barmaid passed them out
And before we chugged them down
I held mine up and
Said here's to us and then
Well this blonde slid up to me
Said that was awful sweet
Then I saw her boyfriend
As wide as he was tall
Well he broke up our hug
With a six foot, five inch shove
And I found myself slammed up
Against the wall

Why does everybody want
To kick my ass
I'm just trying to have a little fun
For all the ones who can't
And just because I kiss the prettiest girls
And I drive my truck too fast
Why does everybody want
To kick my ass

Well I've never been the type
To walk up and pick a fight
I've always been the kind to get along
I throw parties all the time
And there always on my dime
We drink and dance and smoke until the dawn
Well my style of stress relief
Sometimes disturbs the peace
The police show up
And cut donuts in my yard
And while the Zeppelin's playing loud
They run off my party crowd
They cuff up my wrist
And throw me down so hard

Why does everybody want
To kick my ass
I'm just trying to have a little fun
For all the ones who can't
And just because I kiss the prettiest girls
And I drive my truck too fast
Why does everybody want
To kick my ass

And just because I kiss the prettiest girls
And I drive my truck too fast
Why does everybody want
To kick my ass

Uh more like uh
Boys play me a love song
Bedroom music
Ah brothers uh give me a grove

So look to your left
And uh to your right
If it's somebody you don't know
Maybe it's time to introduce yourself,
Uh maybe say

Senorita
Pleased to meet ya,
Would you like some pizza
Or margarita

[Spanish speech]

He jump out the window with a guitar in his hand
Said shoot me daddy I'm super man

Six Foot Town Lyrics – Big & Rich

My brakes are on fire
From trying to slow down
I'm always burning my tires
And my horn is to loud
I catch people staring looking funny at me
When I step to the window and I toss a TV
Sometimes I get crazy and it makes a big scene
But when I hit 21 I wanna stand up and scream
I'm filthy rich with laughter, I'm too big for the room
You know from two stories up
A Zenith makes a big boom

It's hard to get around in a six foot town
When your ten feet tall everything is so small
I'm always bumping my head
I'm way to long for the bed
It's hard to get around
In a six foot town.

Some people live inside a tiny little box
They're preoccupied about mismatching their socks
I never been one to worry about much
I just wanna laugh and love
I just wanna live it up

It's hard to get around in a six foot town
When your ten feet tall everything is so small
I'm always bumping my head
I'm way to long for the bed
It's hard to get around
In a six foot town.

Sometimes I stumble just because of my size
But hey y'all that's alright
That's the way God made me
I am what I am
And I can't do nothing bout that

It's hard to get around in a six foot town
When your ten feet tall everything is so small
I'm always bumping my head
I'm way to long for the bed
It's hard to get around

It's hard to get around in a six foot town
When your ten feet tall everything is so small
I'm always bumping my head
I'm way to long for the bed
It's hard to get around
In a six foot town

Holy Water Lyrics – Big & Rich

Somewhere there's a stolen halo
I use to watch her wear it well
Everything would shine wherever she would go
But looking at her now you'd never tell

Someone ran away with her innocence
A memory she can't get out of her head
I can only imagine what she's feeling
When she's praying
Kneeling at the edge of her bed

And she says take me away
then take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

She wants someone to call her angel
Someone to put the light back in her eyes
She's looking through the faces
And unfamiliar places
She needs someone to hear her when she cries

And she says take me away
then take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

She just needs a little help
To wash away the pain she's felt
She wants to feel the healing hands
Of someone who understands

And she says take me away
then take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me
And she says take me away
then take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

Saved Lyrics – Big & Rich

There was a time I tried to kill a man
Just for looking at me wrong
Anger so strong I couldn't stop myself
I was killing myself one shot at a time
Going insane from the pain
The women and the wine

But I finally hit bottom in an alley way
Hell wasn't but a breath away
So I hit my knee's in the street and begged god for mercy

Last night I told the devil where to go
You know heaven's got my soul
Ain't gonna listen to his lies no more
Last night I told the devil where to go

I could have saved myself a lot of hurting time
If I'd have just listened to my momma
Everytime she cried
Well I was way to lost in a sinner's haze
Burning up the days
Just another young man who had lost his way
Now it finally makes sense what the preacher said
When he said son you don't wanna wake up dead
And find yourself alone in the fires of hell

Yeah everybody
Last night I told the devil where to go
You know heaven's got my soul
Ain't gonna listen to his lies no more
Last night I told the devil where to go

Now when you hear that demon knocking at your door
You just tell him you dont want his kind round here no more
Cause if you wanna love if you wanna live
If you wanna be free you can't forget and forgive
You gotta kick him in the teeth and do exactly
Do exactly what I did

Yeah last night I told the devil where to go
You know heaven's got my soul
Ain't gonna listen to his lies no more
Last night I told the devil
Last night I told the devil
Last night I told the devil
Last night I told the devil
Last night I told the devil
I told the devil where to go

Real World Lyrics – Big & Rich

There's a girl on channel 13
I know she's gonna fall in love with me
And I'm gonna win the lottery tomorrow
Or the next day
I drive a Mercedes Benz
Ive got a whole butt load of friends
I'm gonna be on CMT someday

But in my real world
Things don't always turn out so good
Like you wish they would
And in my real world
I'm a little messed up and broke, don't you know

I got more money then George Strait
I throw benjies out the window all day
Just to see how far they fly, bye bye
I get more girls then the president
Mom and dad still pay the rent
And I throw parties all night long

But in my real world
Things don't always turn out so good
Like you wish they would
And in my real world
I'm a little messed up and broke, don't you know

But in my real world
Things don't always turn out so good
Like you wish they would
And in my real world
I'm a little messed up and broke, don't you know

But in my real world
Things don't always turn out so good
Like you wish they would
And in my real world
I'm a little messed up and broke, don't you know

Save A Horse (Ride A Cowboy) Lyrics – Big & Rich

[Intro]
DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DE-DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DAA-DAAAAA
DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DE-DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DAA-DAA-DAA-DAA-DAAAA!

Well, I walk into the room
Passing out hundred dollar bills
And it kills and it thrills like the horns on my Silverado grill
And I buy the bar a double round of crown
And everybody's getting down
An' this town ain't never gonna be the same.

[Chorus:]
Cause I saddle up my horse
and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
on my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy.
Everybody says
Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

Well I don't give a dang about nothing
I'm singing and Bling-Blinging
While the girls are drinking
Long necks down!
And I wouldn't trade ol' Leroy
or my Chevrolet for your Escalade
Or your freak parade
I'm the only John Wayne left in this town

And I saddle up my horse
and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
on my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy.
Everybody says
Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

[Spoken:]
I'm a thourough-bred
that's what she said
in the back of my truck bed
As I was gettin' buzzed on suds
Out on some back country road.
We where flying high
Fine as wine, having ourselves a big and rich time
And I was going, just about as far as she'd let me go.
But her evaluation
of my cowboy reputation
Had me begging for salvation
all night long
So I took her out giggin frogs
Introduced her to my old bird dog
And sang her every Wilie Nelson song I could think of

And we made love
And I saddled up my horse
and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
on my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy.
Everybody says
Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

What? What?
Save A Horse Ride A Cowboy
Everybody says
Save a Horse Ride a cowboy.

Drinkin' 'Bout You Lyrics – Big & Rich

All my life I've been telling myself
I don't need no no nobody else
I'm sitting here thinking
Sittin here drinkin bout you

I look through the mirror
And all that I see
Is one crazy lonely sucker looking back at me
I'm sitting here thinkin'
Sittin' here drinkin bout you

I'm just a man on a mission
Tryin to make some decision
Oh what am I gonna do
Cause I ain't going nowhere
If I can't be some where with you
boo boo boo

Ohh I'm just a man on a mission
Tryin to make some decision
Oh what am I gonna do
Cause I ain't going nowhere
If I can't be some where with you
boo boo boo
I'm just sitting here thinkin
Sittin here drinkin bout you

Yes I'm just sitting here thinkin
Sittin here drinkin bout you

Love Train Lyrics – Big & Rich

I see people gettin mad on CNN
Who's right... democrats or republicans
I don't care who's right or wrong
I know a way we can all get along

Let's take a ride
Let's take a ride on the love train
Unwind, we'll be chuga luggin all the way
Let's roll, like the Stone's playin all day hey
Let's take a ride
Let's take a ride on a love train

The whole color thing's never made sense to me
Who gives a hoot
If your red. yellow, purple or pink
We're all mixed up anyway
We might as well give each other a brake

And take a ride
Let's take a ride on the love train
Unwind, we'll be chuga luggin all the way
Let's roll, like the Stone's playin all day hey
Let's take a ride
Let's take a ride on a love train

So let's forget about the hatin
And the way the bulls are playin
Without Jordan on the team
And the high price of gasoline
And if your living in a bubble
Then I guess you got no troubles
But if your anything like me
Well then I bet you really need

To take a ride
Let's take a ride on the love train
Unwind, we'll be chuga luggin all the way
Let's roll, like the Stone's playin all day hey
Let's take a ride
Let's take a ride on a love train

Deadwood Mountain Lyrics – Big & Rich

I've been a rambler, all my life
Been a bet it all gambler
Yeah I let it all ride
Never been afraid of losin
Yeah there's been times I've lost it all
But it wont really matter
Someday when I'm gone

You can bury me on Deadwood Mountain
By my brother wild Bill and sister calamity Jane
Don't bring me no flowers
Just a six gun smokin
Put me eight feet down
When you bury me
Put me eight feet down
When you bury me

When your heart runs deeper
Then a ghost town gold mine
You just know your bound to find that motherload
You'll spend your last heartbeat chasing after rainbows
No there's no place you won't go
To win one more time

You can bury me on Deadwood Mountain
By my brother wild Bill and sister calamity Jane
Don't bring me no flowers
Just a six gun smokin
Put me eight feet down
When you bury me
Put me eight feet down
When you bury me

And cover me a little extra deep
Cause that's the only way
I'm gonna rest in peace

You can bury me on Deadwood Mountain
By my brother wild Bill and sister calamity Jane
Don't bring me no flowers
Just a six gun smokin
Put me eight feet down
When you bury me
Put me eight feet down
When you bury me

Live This Life lyrics - big & rich

Met a man on the street last night
Said his name was Jesus
Met a man on the street last night
Thought he was crazy till I watched him heal a blind man
Watched him heal a blind man now I see

I live this life until this life won't let me live here anymore
Then I will walk yes I will walk
With patience through that open door
I have no fears, angels follow me wherever I may go
I live this life until this life won't let me live here anymore

Met a girl in a chair with wheels
But no one else would see her
Met a girl in a chair with wheels
Everyone was so afraid
To even look down on her
And she just spread her little wings and flew away yeah

I live this life until this life won't let me live here anymore
Then I will walk yes I will walk
With patience through that open door
I have no fears, angels follow me wherever I may go
I live this life until this life won't let me live here anymore

Met a kid on a bridge last night
Contemplating freedom
Met a kid on a bridge last night
And he said
I'm tired of this maddening life
And I'm ready to go meet Jesus
And I said he's a friend of mine
Met him just last night
And it's alright
Yeah it's all right
Yeah

I live this life until this life won't let me live here anymore
Then I will walk yes I will walk
With patience through that open door
I have no fears, angels follow me wherever I may go
I live this life until this life won't let me live here anymore
Live here anymore

Met a man on the street last night
Said his name was Jesus
Met a man on the street last night
