LYRICS, THE STORY IN THE MUSIC

Song Lyrics by: Michael Sean Perry

{c: Chorus}

I ain’t the best there is but I’ll do till he gets here

Don’t you know that I’d do a whole lot better

If you’d spot me a couple beers

I’ve learned that showing up is the first step to

Getting things right

I know what you want but I got what

I got and I’m here with you tonight

{c: Verse 1:}

Stepped into this Roadhouse I know just off highway 441

To play a Friday night show

Get drunk and have a little fun

They said “Play some Skynyrd and Hank

With that old Country tone

Here in this Honky Tonk boys

You’d better take us back home”

There’s just a few songs I know

Most of them are sweet and slow

Up on that stage tonight I’ll have y’all feeling alright

{c: Chorus}

I ain’t the best there is but I’ll do till he gets here

Don’t you know that I’d do a whole lot better

If you’d bought me a couple beers

I’ve learned that showing up is the first step to

Getting things right

I know what want but I got what

I got and I’m here with you tonight

{c: Verse 2:}

Went to see my woman last week

The gal I call my main squeeze

She gives me love when I want

I don’t mind being taught she is a friend to me

She says “love me like a Cowboy can

Give me the very best you’ve got

Get you lasso and your boots

Let’s spend the night all tied up in knots”

There’s just a few tricks I know

Most of them are sweet and slow

Do my best to rock your world

Have you feeling like you’re my only girl

{c: Chorus}

I ain’t the best there is but I’ll do till he gets here

Don’t you know that I’d do a whole lot better

if you gave me a couple beers

I’ve learned that showing up is the first step to

getting things right

I know what you want but I got what

I got and I’m here with you tonight

{c: Verse 3:}

I make a little money on the side

Riding bulls and holding on for my life

But this Saturday night’s got me on a steer

By the name of Broken Bones

”Ride ‘em now Cowboy!” show us

Where you come from

You got eight seconds son, to show us what you’re made of

There’s just a few cows I know

Most of them are sweet and slow

Up in the arena tonight

Gonna ride this old boy into the light

{c: Chorus}

I ain’t the best there is but I’ll do till he gets here

Don’t you know that I’d do a whole lot better

if I threw back a couple beers

I’ve learned that showing up is the first step to

Getting things right

I know what you want but I got what

I got and I’m here with you tonight
