All Kinds Of Kinds – Miranda Lambert

Ilsa was an acrobat who went and fell in love with that Horatio the human cannonball. A weddin' 'neath the big top tent with barkers clowns and elephants Sideshow family oddities and all. The dog-faced boy howled out with joy As the tattooed lady was crying. Ever since the beginning to keep the world spinning It takes all kinds of kinds. Thomas was a congressman with closets full of skeletons And dresses that he wore on Friday nights. Phyllis was a pharmacist, a dab of that, a pinch of this Concocted to suppress her appetite. When the children were fiddlin' she'd slip 'em some Ritalin And wait for Thomasina to arrive. Cause ever since the beginning to keep the world spinning It takes all kinds of kinds. All kinds of kinds. When I play this old guitar from children's shows to smoky bars I take a break and think about the past. When I stood up in geometry and everybody stared at me And I tossed my test into the trash. I scratched off m...

Mama's Broken Heart – Miranda Lambert

I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors I screamed his name ‘til the neighbors called the cops I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver Don’t know what I did next all I know, I couldn’t stop Word got around to the barflies and the baptists My mama’s phone started ringin’ off the hook I can hear her now sayin’ she ain’t gonna have it Don’t matter how you feel, it only matters how you look Go and fix your make up, girl it’s just a break up Run and hide your crazy and start actin’ like a lady 'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together Even when you fall apart But this ain’t my mama’s broken heart I wish I could be just a little less dramatic Like a Kennedy when Camelot went down in flames Leave it to me to be holdin’ the matches When the fire trucks show up and there’s nobody else to blame Can’t get revenge and keep a spotless reputation Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make My mama came from a softer generation Where you get a grip...

Safe lyrics – Miranda Lambert

Just like the fringe on my boots You move with every step I take You walk in front of me to make sure That I don’t fall and break my own heart Cause with you I could never Just like the leather on my saddle We get prettier with time Together in the weather Shiny on the other side Polished and changed for the better With you I’m safe With you I’m safe I follow you just like a shadow Only closer and If you get tied and bound I'll find a way to free your hands I'll wash them clean Of everything but me Sometimes you might get thirsty So I’ll catch the rain Just like the ice in your glass I'll rattle when you need a drink You’ll never run dry of love or anything I’ll keep you safe I’ll keep you safe I’ll keep you safe I keep a locket on my neck that holds your face I’ll spend forever making sure I can erase Every tear you ever thought about crying You make me feel like I’m the only girl in the whole wide world I wanna hold you like a hand...

Fastest Girl In Town – Miranda Lambert

You’ve got the bullets I’ve got the gun. I’ve got a hankering for getting into something I hit the bottle, you hit the gas, I heard your 65 can really haul some ass. I’m feeling frisky, you're feeling good I guess the whiskey is doing what it should I got the cigarettes You’ve got a lighter And when the sun goes down we’ll start a little fire Ain’t no use in trying to slow me down ‘Cause you’re running with the fastest girl in town Ain’t you baby? I like ‘em crazy. My reputation follows me around Just makes me want to give them more to talk about Let’s go to town for a little while I’ll be wearing nothing but a tattoo and a smile Ain’t no use in trying to slow me down ‘Cause you’re running with the fastest girl in town Ain’t you baby? You’re kinda crazy. Come on! I see the blue lights, we better run. Throw out the bottle and I’ll hide the gun If he pulls us over I’ll turn on the charm You’ll be in the slammer and I’ll be on his arm. Ain’t no u...

Fine Tune lyrics – Miranda Lambert

I've been missing all the vital signs That I needed for love to work Engine of a heart that would not start had to jump it so much, it hurt Everytime I looked under the hood It was always a mystery You pulled up in a rescue truck and Showed up with a master key And revved it up for me [Chorus] My Pulse was nearly gone I was almost in need of a defibrilator I didn't know what went wrong I had to shake it off but i got stuck Oh my God, you turned all my loose strings You're the love innovator that brings All the right tools, you know what to do Fine tune Fine tune You started tweaking on a little knob That I didn't even know was there Kissing on my wrist all the way to my neck Running your fingers through my hair I felt like I was dizzy and I didn't think I could drive You flipped a switch, hotwired my gears Yeah you put me in line And now I'm running right [Chorus] My Pulse was nearly gone I was almost in need of a defibrilator ...

Baggage Claim lyrics – Miranda Lambert

I have been draggin' around your sensitive ego Making sure that your bags arrive on time for the dog and pony show A little suitcase like a brick, It kinda makes it hard to get a good grip I drop your troubles off at the conveyor belt, I'll hand you a ticket to go get it yourself At the baggage claim, you got a lot of luggage in your name When you hit the ground, check the lost and found Cause it ain't my problem now I can't carry it on, I've got a lot of troubles on my own It's all over the yard, in the trunk of the car, I'm packin' it in, so come and get it. If it ain't obvious what has set me off today, Behind every woman scorned is a man who made her that way Go on and take your little business trip with that sweet little habit That you can't kick You better call your momma when you get to town Cause I ain't gonna be hangin' around At the baggage claim, you got a lot of luggage in your name When you hit the...

Same Old You lyrics – Miranda Lambert

So here you are In your borrowed car Kicking rocks around Looking at your shoes It's the same old you Tell me where you been And where you're going to Where were you last night Boy listen up when I'm talking to you It's the same old you Another lonely night With that same old whiskey morning It's the same old you When you get to drinking The same old you When you're on the town The same old you In church on Sunday Getting high when the sun goes down Well this time I done some thinking And I think I'm done with you Cause until I get to leaving It's just the same old me too Well your mama's gonna cry her eyes There ain't gonna be no wedding day What's she gonna say? When I tell her how I had no choice The same old you couldn't even raise your voice And ask me to stay I wouldn't anyway So you can keep your ring And I'll keep my daddy's name It's the same old you When you get to drinki...

Dear Diamond lyrics – Miranda Lambert

Dear diamond Pretty and new Perfectly flawless too good to be true Dear diamond You shine like the sun Wrap around my finger just like he does You cost more than he wanted to lose And with this ring I said I do Promised to never do what I’ve done I’ve been lying to someone Dear diamond What will we do? Lie like the devil or just face the truth Dear diamond Be my saving grace What he don’t know will kill him That I can’t face You cost more than he wanted to lose And with this ring I said I do I promised to never do what I’ve done I’ve been lying to someone Dear diamond Dear diamond With your band of gold Some people you have, some people you hold Dear diamond I promise to keep This secret I have while he’s holding me

Look At Miss Ohio – Miranda Lambert

Oh me oh my oh, would you look at Miss Ohio She’s a runnin’ around with her rag-top down She says I wanna do right but not right now Gonna drive to Atlanta and live out this fantasy Runnin’ around with your rag-top down Yeah, I wanna do right but not right now Had your arm around her shoulder, a regimental soldier And mamma starts pushin’ that wedding gown Yeah, I wanna do right but not right now Oh me oh my oh, would you look at Miss Ohio She’s a runnin’ around with her rag-top down She says I wanna do right but not right now I know all about it, so you don’t have to shout it I’m gonna straighten it out somehow Yeah, I wanna do right but not right now Oh me oh my oh, would you look at Miss Ohio She’s a runnin’ around with her rag-top down She says I wanna do right but not right now Yeah, I want do right but not right now.

Over You lyrics – Miranda Lambert

Weather man said it’s gonna snow By now I should be used to the cold Mid-February shouldn’t be so scary It was only December I still remember the presents, the tree, you and me But you went away How dare you? I miss you They say I’ll be OK But I’m not going to ever get over you Living alone here in this place I think of you, and I’m not afraid Your favorite records make me feel better Cause you sing along With every song I know you didn’t mean to give them to me But you went away How dare you? I miss you They say I’ll be OK But I’m not going to ever get over you It really sinks in, you know, when I see it in stone Cause you went away, How dare you? I miss you They say I’ll be OK But I’m not going to ever get over you

Easy Living lyrics – Miranda Lambert

The weather man Says rain today We'll saddle up and be on our way What's a little rain to a high ridin' rebel or two Cuz it's easy living Easy loving you People keep searchin' for a reason why They say life's a bitch and then you'll die But I can't see A reason for their point of view Cuz it's easy living Easy loving you Talk shows talking how it's near the end Of the one man woman And the one woman man We might fight like dogs But hey we love the makin' up at the end of the day Tomorrow that old sun will rise I'll be laying here by your side A coffee cup and a good morning kiss or two Cuz its easy living Easy loving you Cuz it's easy living Easy loving you

Hurts To Think lyrics – Miranda Lambert

Tongue is sharp Got an ax to grind Girls go wrong, men go right after them I don't win and it's a compromise You'll be the loser that pays the dividend Far from you you'll find me Such an easy target and a tragedy You're just a shiver looking for a spine You can have your way, but you can't have mine If I had one wish you'd go away I haven't snapped yet, but I'm on the brink of it And I'm not as dumb as the look on your face You'll never be half the man your mama is Overloaded by the way you talk A hairpin trigger that I can't stop Empty words taking up my time And you can have your way But you can't have mine 'Cause every shot baby it feels like a resurrection I'm looking for affection at the bottom of a bottle again You show up and it starts another chain reaction Oh but I can't tell if it's you or the drink It's too hard to know 'Cause it hurts to think Far from you you'll ...

Oklahoma Sky lyrics – Miranda Lambert

How long has it taken me to find you Five hundred years, five hundred thousand miles It don't matter now Love's always on time Meet me underneath the Oklahoma sky Lightning flashed, everything went silent A feather could have knocked me to the floor Missing piece was found I was finally alive Meet me underneath the Oklahoma sky With the speed of sound I'm home bound [?] All our sorrows swept away forever Each and every tear washed out to sea There ain't no goodbye With your hand in mine Meet me underneath the Oklahoma sky Oklahoma sky

Nobody's Fool lyrics – Miranda Lambert

One more night with the same neon lights And I'll find my place at the bar One more dance so I'll buy one more round And I'll try to drown out my heart He'll walk in and make every head turn And he'll always be dressed to kill Day I left is my only regret And now it's become his biggest thrill All my friends say "hey don't you know him" And I'll try to play it off cool When they ask I'll just say he's nobody And me, well I'm nobody's fool Won't take long and he'll find him someone And then pull them out for a dance Every note tells me that's all she wrote And reminds me how I missed my chance. When he's done he'll have a little more fun And he'll let her act like she's gold As they walk out while I'm learning about What it is to have nothing to lose All my friends say "hey don't you know him" And I'll try to play it off cool When they ask I'll jus...

Better In The Long Run – Miranda Lambert

Better In The Long Run – Miranda Lambert & Blake Shelton [Miranda] Cheap red wine straight out of a coffee cup One more down, drink you off my mind Lord knows I’ve tried a thousand times to give you up But its closing time and we both know why [Chorus] I’m just too selfish I guess I know you’re tired and restless It’s no surprise we’ve come undone But I can’t not love you just because You say it’s better in the long run [Blake Shelton] We’ve been driving down this highway Now we’re out of gas, too far outta town Oh here we are all tangled up and sideways You’re all broken down, yeah I’m breaking down I’m just too selfish I guess I know you’re tired and restless It’s no surprise we’ve come undone But I can’t not love you just because You say it’s better in the long run [Blake] Oh maybe somewhere a little down the line I’ll get a little better leaving us behind Maybe someday, Oh I’ll be fine. [Miranda] Oh and you’ll move on and I will too But I sti...

Take It Out On Me – Miranda Lambert

These are the last words that I'll say to you You know damn well what brought it on I can't believe I've been a silly fool To let it go on this long You never let life get you down 'Cause every single time You take it out on me You kick and scream your dyin' love for me Well, you don't win love in a fight The place you really need some victory Is by yourself alone at night I left my picture on the bed So someone could be right Take it out on me Take it out on me Or better still, you could Take it out on the passenger seat Where I used to be I'm washing my hands clean 'Cause that's what you need Take it out on me You treated me like I was second hand Somehow I always caught the blame You'll never guess what I've been catchin' now A better man with a better name You're left out in the rain again You can walk home in my shoes Take it out on me Ooh, take it out on me Or better still, you could Take ...

Nobody's Used To Be – Miranda Lambert

I'm gonna drink till I feel pretty I'm gonna laugh till you get mad I'm gonna dance with three more strangers Till you get over what you had [Chorus] I can feel you starin at me And I just love good irony The only shot you got's one more tequila Cause I aint nobody's used to be Its gettin late A little lonely And what you're thinkin's all to clear Lucky for you I've had too many I'm just drunk enough to leave you here [Chorus] I can feel you starin at me And I just love good irony The only shot you got's one more Jack Daniels Cause I aint nobody's used to be You can stop anticipatin Just go home I know she's waitin And I know you'll be wishin it was me Honey I ain't nobody's used to be
