video  "Single White Female" by Chely Wright (Carolyn Dawn Johnson/Shaye Smith)

1st Verse

I know that every morning you go thumbin'
Through the personal want ads
You grab the latest copy, a cup of coffee
And settle in for a good laugh
I've been tryin' to catch your eye, but I'm so shy
I'm hopin' and prayin' that
Today's edition is goin' to catch your attention

Chorus

'Cause (That) there's a single white female
Lookin' for that special lover
To put it in a nutshell
A one woman man who doesn't want no other
Oh, you never can tell
She just might be your dream come true
A single white female
Is lookin' for a man like you

2nd Verse

Yeah, I'm a little nervous, I'm not sure if
I shoulda put it in writing
Might have been a little reckless, a little desperate
But I think I did the right thing
I couldn't go on livin' keep it hidden
So I'm tellin' you everything
It's my confession, I hope you get the message

(Repeat Chorus)

It's my confession, I hope you get the message

(Repeat Chorus)

Lookin' for a man like you
Lookin' for a man like you



"Rubbin' It In" by Chely Wright (Chad Smith)

1st Verse

Last night I went out with some old friends
I couldn't help but think of you again
Someone was wearin' your cologne
What a cruel way to remind me that you're gone

A couple danced over by the jukebox
Hand in hand, I thought they'd never stop
They played our song again and again
How could anyone be so insensitive

Chorus

They're laughin' at me, I just know it
As if they knew all along I'd blow it
Everywhere I turn
Somethin' reminds me of the way things were
I love you, I lost you, I know what a fool I've been
And it seems like the whole world keeps rubbin' it in

2rd Verse

Every time I turn on the TV
I come across one of our favorite movies
A love story that ends with a kiss
How'd the cable company get in on this

I swear I pass you when I'm on the highway
Since when did everone drive red Chevrolets
It never really is your car
I think some people have taken this a little too far

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus)

Yeah, it seems like the whole world keeps rubbin' it in



video  "Shut Up And Drive" by Chely Wright (Sam Tate/Annie Tate/Rivers Rutherford)

1st Verse

Shut up and drive
You don't know what you're talkin' about
He's not the one
You ought to know that by now
You've got one of those hearts
That keeps changin' your mind
Your heart has a way of making you stay
So shut up and drive

2nd Verse

Don't look in the mirror
He might have that look in his eyes
The one that's so strong
It strangles your will to survive
He's mastered the art of lookin' sincere
His eyes have a way of making you stay
Don't look in the mirror

Chorus

I'm the voice you never listen to
And I had to break your heart to make you see
That he's the one who will be missin' you
And you'll only miss the man that you wanted him to be

3rd Verse

Turn the radio on
To drown out the sound of goodbye
Blink back the tears
Show me you still got your pride
Just get yourself lost
In a sad country song
Those guys that they play know just what to say
Turn the radio on

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag

Shut up and drive
Don't look in the mirror
Turn the radio on
Get out of here
Shut up and drive
