Song Lyrics: Random Thoughts

I don't listen to the radio nearly as much as I used to (read: when I had a desk job at the Red Cross and listened to the radio to keep from going crazy), but a few songs have caught my ear, so to speak, in the last few weeks.  

First, in no particular order, is "You're Gonna Miss This" by Trace Adkins (yes, country...groan, groan, groan for all you country-haters out there).  The chorus goes like this:
You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days
hadn't gone by so fast.
These are some good times
so take a look around.
You may not know it know
but you're gonna miss this

A bit cheesy, yes, but that's one of the things that I love about country and you gotta admit, there's all sorts of truth in there. 

Next up, "Ticks" by Brad Paisley.  Seriously, you should read all the lyrics to this song just for a good laugh.  My favorite line: "I want to check you for ticks."  What woman wouldn't be swept off her feet by the guy that whips out that line?

And finally...well, I have another song rambling around in my head, but I can't think of enough of the lyrics for Google to find it for me.  Come on, Google, you're letting me down!  I'll be sure to let you know when I find it because I'm sure you're all dying to know what it is.  :)

can I make a confession?
more often than not the last couple of months, my radio has landed on the country station. I'm eating so many rash words spoken in the past against country music!
and yes, the tick song is hilarious. I saw a girl at Oak View yesterday wearing a shirt that said "I want to check you for ticks" on it.. it took a lot not to make a comment to her. I loved it! :)

one more thought.. I'm thinking it's Brad Paisley again. a really funny song is "I'm Still a Guy".
my favorite line?
"when you see a priceless French painting, I see a drunk naked girl".
gotta love Paisley. he knows how to write 'em! :)
