Twisted
(专辑: Ride Through The Country - 2008)
Oh oooo oh It aint rained in a
month Mama done took a
job part time at the
five and dime Lord, times is hard, Daddy's pride is really hurting, feeling less than a
man. Workin dark to dark, how much more can he stand? I
aint never seen him cry now I'm 17 Quarterback, first train, gave my high school ring to the
prettiest little girl, green eyes and red hair. I
think I
might ask her to marry me tonight at the
fair. I
aint never been so torn, should I
stay or leave? Get out of this small town, am I
letting 'em down? I
could even play ball somewhere in the
fall. Live the
big city life, I
guess I
could have it all.. [CHORUS:] Lord, I'm twisted, I
feel the
stress that's hangin on me, And all this pain in my family they all depend on me. Lord, I'm twisted, I
feel the
stress that's hangin on me, And all the
pain in my family they all depend on me. Lord, I'm twisted. Man, how do you decide between real life and a
dream? Loving ya Ma and Pa, ya girl, and ya team Trying to figure out the
next move to make, trying to figure out the
right road to take. Dying to get out, but still afraid to roam. Is it wrong to wanna leave the
only place I've known? Life as I
know it is just simple and plain: Chores, school, and practice, everyday is the
same. I'm tired of the
routine and everyone knowing me. I'm dreaming of everything the
t.v. is showing me. They promised me a
full ride to UCLA, but that's a
whole 'nother world for small town G.A. Lord, I'm asking, I
hope you hear my prayer cuz I'm torn between here and what I
see over there. I
pray someway that you could give me a
sign. Tell me which way to go cuz I
sure don't know. [CHORUS:] I
dont know [sang in background] Lord, I'm twisted, I
feel the
stress that's hangin on me, And all this pain in my family they all depend on me. Lord, I'm twisted, I
feel the
stress that's hangin on me, And all the
pain in my family they all depend on me. Lord, I'm twisted. Lord, we're one win away from winning it all, and I'm a
plan flight away from seeing my first ball. I
can finally see the
ocean and stars of Hollywood. Say bye to this damn farm, get a
tattoo on my arm. Forget these dirt roads and the
way I
was raised. Chase the
bright lights of the
California nights. Sports cars and sushi is all I
see. When I
order some sweet tea they start laughing at me Boy, this new life aint what I
thought it would be. Maybe the
city life aint made for me. Now I'm wishing I
was fishing on the
lake with Dad, and starting to realize being country aint bad. I
miss that ol' farm and that red headed girl and waking up before the
sun to help Daddy get it done. I'm packed and headed back to the
place I
was born. Proud to be country and no longer torn [CHORUS:] Lord, I'm twisted, I
feel the
stress that's hangin on me, And all this pain in my family they all depend on me. Lord, I'm twisted, I
feel the
stress that's hangin on me, And all the
pain in my family they all depend on me. Lord, I'm twisted. yeah. Lord, I'm twisted. oh yeah I
dont know, I
dont know, I
dont know If I
should wait or should I
go, I
just dont know This song is for everybody, no matter whether you're from a
small town, the
hood, the
big city, it dont matter Everybodys got their dreams they wanna follow. Some people are ashamed of where they're from, they dont know where they're supposed to be. Everybody find your place in life, be proud of who you are. Dont let nothing hold you back. Just take me home..oh take me home.
