All Jacked Up

listen  "Don't Make Me Take My Earrings Out (The Earrings Song)" by Gretchen Wilson (Monty Criswell/Rivers Rutherford)

1st Verse

lyrics
Well, I finally found a sitter
Who'd stay late on Friday night
So I could do some dancin'
Underneath them neon lights
Get out of the kitchen
Do a little catchin' up with my ol' man

2nd Verse

And I couldn't help but notice, girl
That you keep slinking by
Stealing his attention
With a twinkle in your eye
You're causin' an involuntary clenching
Of the fingers on my hand
So honey, move along
And find a place to park yourself
While you still can

1st Chorus

(So) don't make me take my earrings out
'Cause I'll show you what a cat fight's all about
I'll throw you down and mop the floor
A man like mine's worth fightin' for
Don't make me take my earrings out

3rd Verse
lyrics

And I bet I spend an hour at the bathroom vanity
Tryin' to turn a mom into a barroom beauty queen
I don't want to mess it up, but trust me, honey
I ain't scared to break a nail
Yeah, and I'd be glad to spend a night in jail
Aw, hell

2nd Chorus

So don't make me take my earrings out
'Cause I'll show you what a cat fight's all about
If you come waltzin' by once more
I'll drag your butt right out the door
So don't make me take my earrings out
Aw, ha

(Repeat 1st Chorus)

Tag

If you come waltzin' by once more
I'll throw you down and mop the floor
And drag your butt right out the door
A man like mine's worth fightin' for
So don't make me take my earrings out

Band's playin' one last song
And if you want another round
Better order it now
It's last call

Crowd's still rockin' and it's 2:01
The bartender's screamin' at the top of his lungs

You don't have to go home
But you can't stay here

Get carried off by the law

Well, there's a couple hidin' out
Gettin' down in a bathroom stall

Before they kick our butts into the parkin' lot

I can do most anything a man can do
I can hold my liquor with the best 'a you
Even take your money in a game of pool
Yeah, I'd kick your butt if I wanted to

The truth is, I don't blush that much at anything
But I've still got this little girl inside of me
That likes to be treated like a queen

But I still need to be somebody's baby

Lookin' for a man to make it all alright
And I don't mind admitting sometimes late at night

1st Verse

Sometimes we fight
'Bout who's wrong and right
And stay up all night
And sometimes we drink
And say hurtful things
That we don't mean

Pre Chorus

Yeah, we're both screamin'
But nobody's listenin'
Let's take this madness
Out of the kitchen

Come to bed
Let's just lay down
There's just one way
We're gonna work this out
Forget what I did
Forget what you said
Oh, darlin' (darlin')
Come to bed

You know I do
And you love me, too

Before it all gets lost

Just take my hand
It's been way too long
Turn out the lights
And turn each other on

And let's put aside our pride
For feelin's for tonight
In the mornin' we'll see things
In a different light

listen video  "All Jacked Up" by Gretchen Wilson (Gretchen Wilson/John Rich/Vicky McGehee)

1st Verse

Hey, yeah
Well, five thirty PM rolls around
There's a little ol' joint outside'a town
I only got time for a couple'a beers
And the jukebox song ringin' in my ear
The next thing you know the bartender's pourin'
Shots are flowin'
Got me stoned, man
All I really know is that I should be goin'
But I'm soakin' up the moment

Chorus

(I'm) all jacked up (all jacked up)
All jacked up (all jacked up)
Don't believe I've ever had this much
One thing I've learned when you get tore up
(Time sure flies)
(Don't start no stuff)
(Don't drive your truck)
When you're all jacked up

2nd Verse

It was gettin' mighty close to nine o'clock
What the hell, I'll have'a one more shot
Then I winked at a boy at the end of the bar
I guess I might'a must'a gone a little too far
'Cause a big ol' girl walked outta the blue
Ten foot two with a bad attitude
Stepped right up and knocked out my tooth
I guess I had it comin'
I deserved it, too, 'cause I was

(Repeat Chorus)

3rd Verse

Don't have to go home, but you can't stay here
That's what they said when I got my last beer
Oh my God, it's two o'clock
I can't find my keys, and my truck's locked
So I grabbed a tire tool, and I broke my window
Hurt my elbow, got me in, though
Two foot later backed into the light pole
All the town folk got a good show

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag Chorus

Jacked up (all jacked up)
(All jacked up)
Wooo
One thing I've learned when you get tore up
Don't start no stuff when you're all jacked up
One thing I've learned when you get tore up
Don't drive your car
Don't start no stuff in no bar
Hell, I wouldn't even tell anybody where you are
When you're all jacked up (all jacked up)
All jacked up (all jacked up)
All jacked up (all jacked up)
All jacked up (all jacked up)
Yeah, yeah, yeah...



listen video  "California Girls" by Gretchen Wilson (Gretchen Wilson/John Rich)

1st Verse

I ain't never had a problem with California
There's a lot 'a good women
(From) Sacramento to Corona
But them Hollywood types
After a while wear on 'ya
Struttin' around in their size zeros
Skinny little girls
No meat on their bones
Never even heard of George Jones

Chorus

Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls
Ain't you glad there's still a few of us left
That know how to rock your world
Ain't afraid to eat fried chicken
And dirty dance to Merle
Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls
(Ah, ha)

2nd Verse

There ain't nothin' wrong with plastic surgery
Well, Dolly Parton never looked so good to me
Everybody oughta be exactly who they wanna be
But that Paris Hilton gets under my skin
With her big, fake smile and her painted on tan
(She'd) never have a chance with a real man

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Ain't you glad we ain't all California girls

I'm for the low man on the totem pole
And I'm for the underdog
God bless his soul
And I'm for the guys still pullin' third shift
And the single mom raisin' her kids

And I'm for the sinner who finally believes
And I'm for the farmer with dirt on his hands
And the soldiers who fight for this land

And I'm for the flag
And I'm for the workin' man
Me and ol' Hag
I'm just one 'a many
(Who) can't get no respect

3rd Verse

I guess my opinion
Is all out of style
Aw, but don't get me started
'Cause I can get riled
And I'll make a fight for
The forefather's plan (that's right)
And the world already knows where I stand

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag Chorus

Nothin' wrong with the Bible
Nothin' wrong with the flag
Nothin' wrong with the workin' man

So don't you even try to change my mind
The best thing you can do right now is just go away

video  "Here For The Party" by Gretchen Wilson (Gretchen Wilson/John Rich/Kenny Aldrich)

1st Verse

Well, I'm an eight ball shootin' double-fisted
Drinkin' son of a gun
I wear my jeans a little tight
Just to watch the little boys come undone
I'm here for the beer and the ball-bustin' band
Gonna get a little crazy just because I can

Chorus

You know I'm here for the party
And I ain't leavin' 'til they throw me out
Gonna have a little fun
Gonna get me some
(You know) I'm here (I, I)

2nd Verse

I may not be a 10
But the boys say I clean up good
And if I gave 'em half a chance
For some rowdy romance
You know they would
I've been waitin' all week
Just to have a good time
So bring on them cowboys
And their pickup lines

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Don't want no purple hooter shooter
Just some Jack on the rocks
Don't mind me if I start that trashy talk

video  "Redneck Woman" by Gretchen Wilson (Gretchen Wilson/John Rich)

1st Verse

Well, I ain't never
Been the Barbie doll type
No, I can't swig that sweet champagne
I'd rather drink beer all night
In a tavern or in a honky tonk
Or on a 4 wheel drive tailgate
I've got posters on my wall
Of Skynyrd, Kid, and Strait
Some people look down on me
But I don't give a rip
I'll stand barefooted in my own front yard
With a baby on my hip 'cause

Chorus

(Hey) I'm a redneck woman
I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raisin'
I say hey y'all and yee haw
And I keep my Christmas lights on
On my front porch all year long
And I know all the words
To every (Charlie Daniels) (Tanya Tucker) (Ol' Bocephus) song
So here's to all my sisters
Out there keepin' it country
Let me get a big 'hell, yeah'
From the redneck girls like me
Hell, yeah

2nd Verse

Victoria's Secret, well their stuff's real nice
Oh, but I can buy the same damn thing
On a Wal-Mart shelf half-price
And still look sexy, just as sexy
As those models on TV
No, I don't need no designer tag
To make my man want me
You might think I'm trashy
A little too hard core
But in my neck of the woods
I'm just the girl next door

(Chorus Out)

1st Verse

I've never done anything
That would ever bring a tear to your eye
I've never crossed the line
Or needed an alibi to cover up a lie
But darlin' I'll admit
There've been times when I could have
The thing that kept me strong
Is the one thing that is always on my mind

Chorus

When I think about cheatin'
I just think about you leavin'
And how my world would fall to pieces
If I tossed your love away
(Even) (And) when I'm tempted by some stranger
Oh, there's never any danger
I just think about you leavin'
When I think about cheatin'

2nd Verse

There was a time in Abilene
When he said all the things
I wanted to hear
It was hard to turn him down
Between the champagne
And the sound of whispers in my ear
But it just took one
Two-step with someone
And I was missin' you
He never had a chance
'Cause I broke up the dance
Before the song was through

(Chorus Out)

Well, you're a real hot cookie with your new hairdo
Your high heel boots and your credit card

I'm sure you wanted for a long, long time
To find a man like mine
But honey, you're too late

You can take it somewhere else
Or we can take it outside, you little
