"The Trouble with Girls"


scotty-mccreery-the-trouble-with-girls-comes-out.jpgThis past week “The Trouble with Girls” by Scotty McCreery is number nineteen on the chart. He was the most recent American Idol winner and has become another known name in country music. His other big single was “I Love You this Big,” this was the first single he had. He performed this song the night that he took the title American Idol.

This song talks about exactly what the title says “The trouble with Girls.” It is a very catchy song that is a lot different from other songs that are on the radio. I like the beat of this song because it is different. However, the topic is very similar to some of the other songs that are being played on the radio. Many songs now talk about relationship problems and this song is very comparable.

The trouble with girls is their a mystery
Something about 'em puzzle's me
Spend my whole life tryin' to figure out just what dem' girls are all about
The trouble with girls is there so dang pretty
Everything about 'em does something to me
Well I guess that's the way it's supposed to be

Chorus:
They smile that smile
They bat those eyes
They steal you with hello
They kill you with goodbye
They hook you with one touch, and you can't break free
Yeah the trouble with girls is nobody loves trouble as much as me

Their sugar and spice and angel wings
Their hell on wheels and tight blue jeans
A summer night down by the lake,an old memory that you can't change
Their hard to find yea there's so many of 'em
The way you hate that you already love 'em

But I guess that's the way its supposed to be

They smile that smile
They bat those eyes
They steal you with hello
They kill you with goodbye
They hook you with one touch and you can't break free
Yeah the trouble with girls is nobody loves trouble as much as me

The way they hold you out on the dancefloor
The way they ride in the middle of your truck
The way they give you a kiss at the front door
Leave you wishing you could have gone up
And just as you walk away you hear that sweet voice say.... "Stay"

They smile that smile
They bat those eyes
They steal you with hello
They kill you with goodbye
Their the perfect drug and I can't break free
Yeah the trouble with girls is nobody loves trouble as much as me

"You Gonna Fly"


“You Gonna Fly” by Keith Urban is currently the number two song according to billboard.com. This song is one of many of Keith’s top songs. He has many songs that have been top songs but they are all very different. This song is a very up beat and happy song.

 This song has a pretty straight forward meaning. It talks about how he is starting a new beginning with a girl. I really like how positive this song is and the mood of it. It also sounds like he is talking about how he is going to succeed when he says “you gonna fly with me.” This is one of my favorite songs because of the lyrics.

One Two Three Baby Don't think twice
Just like that you gotta brand new life
Hop in this truck and run through the red lights

Yeah where you wanna go baby name the town
We can go up north or head down south
Roll down the windows with the radios loud

Com'on turn it up, yeah
Start living your life
On the double leave your troubles behind
You knew we're gonna be alright

(Chorus)
You could be a black bird
On the country street
Hiding from the world from a broken wing
But you better believe you gonna fly with me

You could be a songbird from the New Orleans
Scared of the rain just cuz you're scared to sing
But you better believe you're gonna fly with me

(Verse)
Well, here we are baby in the back of my van
Suns going down skies turning red
Stars coming out
Baby look at you now

God know how long but its been a while
Since I heard you laugh and I'd seen that smile
Fill that kiss and I can get use to this

Baby I could get use to this

(chorus)

You gonna fly x 2

"All Your Life"

The-Band-Perry1.jpg

The Band Perry is made up of three siblings; Kimberly Perry, Neil Perry, and Reid Perry. They began singing at a young age, Kimberly was the oldest and the first to start singing. Her brothers often helped her out and eventually began performing with her.

The song “All Your Life” is currently the top country song according to Billboard.com. This is one of four songs that have appeared on the top charts. Other top songs include; “Hip to My Heart,” “If I Die Young,” and “You Lie. Clara Henningsen wrote this song when she was eighteen, “I sat out on the porch of our old farm house south of Nashville and wrote most of the song. It started out to be just a sweet love song about a girl asking a boy to prove his love,” she says. This song isn’t the typical country song people usually think of. It is a very up beat and fast song.

Would you walk to the edge of the ocean
Just to fill my jar with sand
Just in case I get the notion
To let it run through my hand
Let it run through my hand

Well, I don't want the whole world
The sun, the moon, and all their light
I just want to be the only girl
You love all your life
You love all your life

Would you catch a couple thousand fireflies
Yeah, put them in a lamp to light my world
All dressed up in a tux and bowtie
Hand deliver to a lonely girl
To a lonely lonely girl

Well, I don't want the whole world

The sun, the moon, and all their light
I just want to be the only girl
You love all your life
You love all your life

Lately I've been writing desperate love songs
Mostly I sing them to the walls,
You could be the center piece of my obsession
If you would notice me, I
Ohh yeah

Well I don't want the whole world
The sun, the moon, and all their light
I just want to be the only girl
You love all your life
You love all your life

You love all your life
Life
Yeah
