It's Five O'Clock Somewhere by Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffet


I've heard this song for awhile but just recently started to actually listen to it as I have only recently (last 5 years or so) gotten into Country music.



The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow,
And so am I.
Work day passes like molasses in wintertime,
But it's July.
I'm gettin' paid by the hour, and older by the minute.
My boss just pushed me over the limit.
I'd like to call him somethin',
I think I'll just call it a day.

Pour me somethin' tall and strong,
Make it a "Hurricane" before I go insane.
It's only half-past twelve but I don't care.
It's five o'clock somewhere.

Oh, this lunch break is gonna take all afternoon,
And half the night.
Tomorrow mornin', I know there'll be hell to pay,
Hey, but that's all right.
I ain't had a day off now in over a year.
My Jamaican vacation's gonna start right here.
If the phone's for me,
You can tell 'em I just sailed away.

And pour me somethin' tall and strong,
Make it a "Hurricane" before I go insane.
It's only half-past twelve but I don't care.
It's five o'clock somewhere.

I could pay off my tab,
put myself in a cab,
And be back to work before two.
At a moment like this I can't help but wonder,
What would Jimmy Buffett do?

Funny you should ask, Alan. I'd say,

Pour me somethin' tall and strong,
Make it a "Hurricane" before I go insane.
It's only half-past twelve but I don't care.

Pour me somethin' tall and strong,
Make it a "Hurricane" before I go insane.
It's only half-past twelve but I don't care.

He don't care.
I don't care.

It's five o'clock somewhere.

What time zone am I on? What country am I in?
It doesn't matter, it's five o'clock somewhere.
It's always on five in Margaritaville, come to think of it.
Yeah, I heard that.
You been there, haven't you?
Yes sir.
I seen your boat there.
I've been to Margaritaville a few times.
All right, that's good.
Stumbled all the way back.
OK. Just wanna make sure you can keep it between the navigational beacons.
Between the buoys, I got it.
All right. Well, it's five o'clock. Let's go somewhere.
I'm ready, crank it up.
Let's get out of here.
I'm gone.

Stay With Me by Rod Stewart


A guy at my old job (back in the early 90's) introduced me to this album and I loved it. There is a bunch of the songs off of it on my playlist. Before owning it, I didn't know many of his songs other than his main hits from the 80's.



In the morning
Don't say you love me
Cause I'll only kick you out of the door

I know your name is Rita
Cause your perfum smelling sweeter
Since when I saw you down on the floor
guitar

Won't need to much pursuading
I don't mean to sound degrading
But with a face like that
You got nothing to laugh about

Red lips hair and fingernails
I hear your a mean old jezabel
Lets go up stairs and read my tarot cards

Stay with me
Stay with me
For tonight you better stay with me

Stay with me
Stay with me
For tonight you better stay with me

So in the morning
Please don't say you love me
Cause you know I'll only kick you out the door

Yea I'll pay your cab fare home
You can even use my best colonge
Just don't be here in the morning when I wake up

Stay with me
Stay with me
Cause tonight you better stay with me
Sit down, get up, get down

Stay with me
Stay with me
Cause tonight your going stay with me
Hey, whats your name again
oh no, get down, wooo

S.O.B. by Nathanial Rateliff & the Night Sweats


I loved this song the first time I heard it which I believe was on the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.



I'm gonna need someone to help me
I'm gonna need somebody's hand
I'm gonna need someone to hold me down
I'm gonna need someone to care
I'm gonna writhe and shake my body
I'll start pulling out my hair
I'm gonna cover myself with the ashes of you
And nobody's gonna give a damn!!!

Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can't be me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away

Now for seventeen years I've been throwing them back
Seventeen more will bury me
And somebody please just tie me down
Or somebody get me a goddamn drink

Son of a bitch, give me a drink!
One more night
This can't be me
Son of a bitch!
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Hey! Hey!

My heart is breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me!
My heart is breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was aching, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was aching, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me

Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can't be me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Son of a bitch, give me a drink
Son of a bitch
This can't be me
Son of a bitch
If I can't get clean I'm gonna drink my life away
Yeah ah

Sussudio by Phil Collins


Always love the Phil Collins and Genesis hits when they pop up.

Su-Su-Sussudio oh oh

I'll show her anytime 
Su-Su-Sussudio oh oh
Ah, I've just got to have her, have her now

She makes me nervous and makes me scared 
But I feel so good if I just say the word 
Su-Su-Sussudio, just say the word 
Oh Su-Su-Sussudio, oh

Sweet Dreams by Marilyn Manson


I've liked this cover since I heard it the first time. I've probably heard it more than the original by now. You'll definitely hear more from him on here.



Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who had a mind to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I wanna use you and abuse you
I wanna know what's inside you
Moving on, moving on
Moving on, moving on
Moving on, moving on
Moving on

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you

Baba O'Riley by the Who


I guess technically I could list this as a TV/Movie theme but I knew this song long before CSI used it.



Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven

Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland

Sally ,take my hand
Travel south crossland
Put out the fire
Don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together
Before we get much older

Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
Oh, oh
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted!

Magic Man by Heart


I didn't realize this song was this old. I mean it sounds like a 70's song but I truly thought it was more an 80's song.



Cold late night so long ago
When I was not so strong you know
A pretty man came to me
Never seen eyes so blue
You know, I could not run away
It seemed we'd seen each other in a dream
It seemed like he knew me
He looked right through me, yeah

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"You don't have to love me yet
Let's get high awhile
But try to understand
Try to understand
Try try try to understand
I'm a magic man"

Winter nights we sang in tune
Played inside the months of moon
Never think of never
Let this spell last forever
Well, summer lover passed to fall
Tried to realized it all
Mama says she's a worried
Growing up in a hurry, yeah

"Come on home, girl" mama cried on the phone
"Too soon to lose my baby yet my girl should be at home!"
"But try to understand, try to understand
Try try try to understand
He's a magic man, mama, ahhh
He's a magic man"

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"I cast my spell of love on you a woman from a child
But try to understand
Try to understand, oh, oh-ho
Try, try to understand
Try try try to understand
He's a magic man" aww yeah
He got the magic hands!"

Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh ...

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"You don't have to love me yet
Let's get high awhile
But try to understand
Try to understand
Try try try to understand
He's a magic man." Yeah oh-oh

I Am On the Rock by Petra


This was the last album that I listened to a ton of theirs. I picked up their next album but I was on the way out of listening to Christian music. This was/is one of my favorite albums by Petra.



The earth is shakin' 
It's like a bad dream 
This world is crumblin' 
Comin' apart at the seam, 
But I am on the Rock, I am on the Rock

Everywhere I'm turning
It's only bad news 
This bomb is tickin'
And we're getting to the end of the fuse,
But I am on the Rock, I am on the Rock

Are you ready?

[Chorus]
I am on the Rock, the sure foundation 
I am on the Rock, on the Rock/I am on the Rock/the Rock of Jesus
I am on the Rock, His revelation 
I am on the Rock.
Though the winds may blow 
And though the floods may grow 
I shall not be moved, 'cause I am on the Rock 

The storm's approaching,
I'm standing high and dry 
Firmly planted
On the Rock that is higher than I,
I am on the Rock, I am on the Rock

Kingdoms failing,
They fall around me 
Plans eroded
And washing away to the sea,
I am on the Rock, I am on the Rock

Are you ready?

[Chorus]

There is no Rock in this world but our God!

[Chorus]

Don't You Wanna Stay by Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson


I've heard this song a bunch and even put it on my playlist awhile back but I didn't remember that these 2 sang it. It's a pretty good song which I guess shouldn't surprise me since I enjoy both of their music. I'm pretty surprised that Kelly Clarkson hasn't been on here yet, I have a bunch of her songs on the playlist.



I really hate to let this moment go
Touching your skin, and your hair falling slow
When a goodbye kiss, feels like this

Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
Don't you wanna hold each other tight?
Don't you wanna fall asleep with me tonight?

Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
We can make forever feel this way
Don't you wanna stay?

Let's take it slow, I don't wanna move too fast
I don't wanna just make love, I wanna make love last
When you're up this high, it's a sad goodbye

Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
Don't you wanna hold each other tight?
Don't you wanna fall asleep with me tonight?
Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
We can make forever feel this way
Don't you wanna stay?

Oh yeeah

Oh, you feel so perfect, baby
Yeah, you feel so perfect, baby

Don't you wanna stay here a little while?

Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
Don't you wanna hold each other tight?
Don't you wanna fall asleep with me tonight?
Don't you wanna stay here a little while?
We can make forever feel this way
Don't you wanna stay?

She Works Hard For the Money by Donna Summer


If I remember the early 80's, this was a pretty popular song back then. I still remembered most of the lyrics.



She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

Onetta there in the corner stand
And she wonders where she is
And it's strange to her
Some people seem to have everything

Nine a.m. on the hour hand
And she's waiting for the bell
And she's looking real pretty
Just wait for her clientele

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

Twenty-eight years have come and gone
And she's seen a lot of tears
Of the ones who come in
They really seem to need her there

It's a sacrifice working day to day
For little money, just tips for pay
But it's worth it all
Just to hear them say that they care

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

Already knows
She's seen her bad times
Already knows
These are the good times

Never sell out
She never will
Not for a dollar bill
She works hard

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

Hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right, alright

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works so hard for the money
So you better treat her right, alright

She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right

Unanswered Prayers by Brooks Jefferson


The video is probably a cover. I assume Garth has a team of lawyers shutting down every video of him singing off of YouTube. I assume this because they are hard to find and he also doesn't allow his music on Spotify so the song I heard was a cover as well. 




Just the other night at a hometown football game
My wife and I ran into my old high school flame
And as I introduced them the past came back to me
And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be

She was the one that I'd wanted for all times
And each night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mine
And if he'd only grant me this wish I wished back then
I'd never ask for anything again

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
And I could tell that time had changed me
In her eyes too it seemed
We tried to talk about the old days
There wasn't much we could recall
I guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after all

And as she walked away and I looked at my wife
And then and there I thanked the good Lord
For the gifts in my life

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
That just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered

Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

Psycho by Puddle of Mudd


I loved this song back when it was new and loved jamming out to it. I did so today when it came on while I was in the shower. It's still a great song.



[Said twice]
Maybe I'm the one
Maybe I'm the one who is the schizophrenic psycho (yeah)

[Verse 1]
She lays down on the fresh lawn
She can make everything magical
But she tied one on big time
And it makes me wanna rewind
To back in the days when we were young
When everything was like a loaded gun
Ready to go off at any minute
And you know we're gonna win again (yeah) [x3]

[Chorus:]
Maybe I'm the one
Maybe I'm the one who is the schizophrenic psycho (yeah)
Maybe I'm the one
Maybe I'm the one who is the paranoid Flake-oh

[Verse 2]
She lays down on the sidewalk
Never very analytical
She is something simply beautiful
Re-appear when you feel magical
To back in the days when we were young
When everything was like a loaded gun
Ready to go off at any minute
Yeah you know we're gonna win again

[Chorus]

You're the one, you're the one who is the schizophrenic psycho [3x]

Back in the days when we were young
When everything was like a loaded gun
Ready to go off at any minute
And you know we're gonna win again

[Chorus]

You're the one, you're the one who is the schizophrenic psycho!
