A Lot Abou

I thought some time in the sun
Would help me get over you
But i could tell from day one
This is a place meant for two

Now here i sit on the beach
Watching the tide ebb and flow
I booked my room for a week
But now i'm ready to go

I'm in a tropical depression
I've got the blue water blues
Can't shake this loving you obsession
Can't stand this sand in my shoes
This forgetting you vacation
Is just a fool's holiday
If i can't get over you
This tropical depression's gonna
Blow me away

This should be paradise
Heaven down by the sea without you here by my side
It feels like hell to me

Chorus

If i can't get over you
This tropical depression's gonna
Blow me away

If i can't get over you
This tropical depression's gonna
Blow me away

Well if i had money
Tell you what i'd do
I'd go downtown and buy a mercury or two
Crazy bout a mercury
Lord i'm crazy bout a mercury
I'm gonna buy me a mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well the girl i love
I stole her from a friend
He got lucky, stole her back again
She heard he had a mercury
Lord she's crazy bout a mercury
I'm gonna buy me a mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well hey now mama
You look so fine
Ridin round in your mercury 49
Crazy bout a mercury
Lord i'm crazy bout a mercury
I'm gonna buy me a mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well my baby went out
She didn't stay long
Bought herself a mercury, come a cruisin home
She's crazy bout a mercury
Yeah she's crazy bout a mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well if i had money
I tell you what i'd do
I'd go downtown and buy me a mercury or two
Crazy bout a mercury
I'm gonna buy me a mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

way down yonder on the chattahoochee
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie
We laid rubber on the georgie asphalt
We got a little crazy but we never got caught

Down by the river on a friday night
A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talking 'bout cars and dreaming 'bout women
Never had a plan just a livin' for the minute
Yeah way down yonder on the chattahoochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But i learned how to swim and i learned who i was
A lot about livin' and a litttle 'bout love

Well we fooged up the windows in my old chevy
I was willing but she wasn't ready
So a settled for a burger and a grape sno-cone
Dropped her off early but i didn't go home

Down by the river on a friday night
A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talking 'bout cars and dreaming 'bout women
Never had a plan just a livin' for the minute
Yeah way down yonder on the chattahoochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But i learned how to swim and i learned who i was
A lot about livin' and a litttle 'bout love

Way down yonder on the chattahoochee
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie
We laid rubber on the georgie asphalt
We got a little crazy but we never got caught

Well we fooged up the windows in my old chevy
I was willing but she wasn't ready
So a settled for a burger and a grape sno-cone
Dropped her off early but i didn't go home

Down by the river on a friday night
A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talking 'bout cars and dreaming 'bout women
Never had a plan just a livin' for the minute
Yeah way down yonder on the chattahoochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But i learned how to swim and i learned who i was
A lot about livin' and a litttle 'bout love

I've been known to tie one on and honky tonk til half past three
But the party don't get started til my baby pours her love on me
She's a hundred proof, lord she's smooth
She makes me moan all night long
So i don't need the booze to get a buzz on

I've tried it all from tennessee whiskey
To ozark mountain moonshine
But it's her sweet love that packs the punch
And keeps me higher than a georgia pine
Mr southern comfort don't come in a bottle
I get a double shot of love home grown
So i don't need booze to get a buzz on

My little country girl makes my head whirl and my knees begin to shake
No i can't walk no chalk line i ain't a talking or a thinking straight
I'm hooked on my baby's love there ain't nothing in a jug this strong
And i don't need the booze to get a buzz on

I've tried it all from tennessee whiskey
To ozark mountain moonshine
Bu it's her sweet love that packs the punch
And keeps me higher than a georgia pine
Mr southern comfort don't come in a bottle
I get a double shot of love home grown
So i don't need booze to get a buzz on

I wear a blue ribbon grin every now and then
But i don't need that to get stoned
I don't need the booze to get a buzz on

No i don't need the booze to get a buzz on

You told me you don't love me when you walked out the door
I stood there feelin lonely, then the tears began to pour
What else could i do, i'd never felt like that before
So i cried an ol blue river i the middle of the floor

Now i'm up to my ears in tears
I'm cryin night and day since you went away
The things you used to say, honey, i no longer hear
That water's cold and clear, i'm drownin for you dear
Up to my ears in tears

Well i found some old love letters you wrote me years ago
But the words all ran together when the tears began to flow
Cause you left that water runnin, now it's got nowhere to go
If i can't wash away your memory guess i'll just go under slow

Now i'm up to my ears in tears
I'm cryin night and day since you went away
The things you used to say, honey, i no longer hear
That water's cold and clear, i'm drownin for you dear
Up to my ears in tears

The water's cold and clear
I'm drowning for you, dear
Up to my ears in tears
