You've Got To Stand For Something
I Wonder How Far It Is Over You
There Ain't Nothing Wrong With The Radio
YOU'VE GOT TO STAND FOR SOMETHING
by Aaron Tippin/Buddy Brock
Now Daddy didn't like trouble, but if it came along
Everyone that knew him knew which side that he'd be on
He never was a hero, or this county's shinin' light
But you could always find him standing up
For what he thought was right
CHORUS
He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name
You've got to stand for something, or you'll fall for anything
Now we might have been better off or owned a bigger house
If Daddy had done more givin' in or a little more backing down
But we always had plenty just living his advice
Whatever you do today you'll have to sleep with tonight
CHORUS
Now I know that things are different than they were in Daddy's days
But I still believe what makes a man really hasn't changed
CHORUS
I WONDER HOW FAR IT IS OVER YOU
By Aaron Tippin/Buddy Brock
I parked my car beside the highway and I didn't lock the doors
Left a note there with the keys if it cranks, well friend, she's yours
And I struck out across Texas, gonna walk it line to line
Now I'm halfway 'cross New Mexico, but you're still on my mind
And this road that's going nowhere just leads me on and on
As I ask myself with every step will I ever be alone
CHORUS
I wonder just how far it is over you
Is there no place I go that you don't come too
When I left Tennessee, I thought we were through
Now I wonder how how it is over you
I was deep in California when I finally made a friend
And it was me and that old hobo till you showed up again
Then he ran out of liquor and I've run out of time
I'm standing by the ocean, but you're still on my mind
And I'm staring at the water so blue and deep and wide
Bet a man could lose a memory over on the other side
CHORUS
I parked my car beside the highway and I didn't lock the doors
Left a note there with the keys if is cranks, well friend, she's yours
THERE AIN'T NOTHIN' WRONG WITH THE RADIO
by Aaron Tippin/Buddy Brock
Sometimes she runs, sometimes she don't
More than once she's left me on the side of the road
The older she gets the slower we go
But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio
She needs a carburetor, a set of plug wires
She's ridin' me around on four bald tires
The wipers don't work and the horn don't blow
But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio
CHORUS
I've got sixteen speakers crossin' my back dash
A little bobbin' dog watchin' everybody pass
Dual antennas whippin' in the wind
Lord, there ain't a country station that I can't tune in
She ain't a Cadillac and she ain't a Rolls
But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio
I got stopped by a cop late last night
Out-of-date tags and no tail lights
He said I oughta run you in but I'm lettin' you go
Because there ain't nothin' wrong with your radio
I got the best lookin' gal in my hometown
I asked her last time that i took her out
Honey, tell me what it is that makes you love me so
She said there ain't nothin' wrong with your radio
CHORUS
No, she ain't a Cadillac and she ain't a Rolls
But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio
I can't shower you with pearls and diamond rings
All I can give are dances in the rain
I can't cover you in satin sheets
But you'll be just as warm
Wrapped up each night
Inside my loving arms
CHORUS
I can never lay the world down at your feet
The moon and stars
will always be beyond my reach
All I have is one true heart that beats
For you and you alone
You can have everything I own
I can't promise you the life that money buys
But I can promise you a richer life
There's places you may never see
But one thing you can know
I'll be there with you
Wherever we don't go
REPEAT CHORUS
