About Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson was born in the small town of Newnan, Georgia, on October 17, 1958.

The Older I Get Lyrics

Alan Jackson

The older I get
The more I think
You only get a minute,

better live while you’re in it
‘Cause it’s gone in a blink
And the older I get
The truer it is
It’s the people you love, not the money and stuff
That makes you rich

And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn’t drink a drop and that’s the truth
Funny how it feels I’m just getting to my best years yet

The older I get
The fewer friends I have
But you don’t need a lot when the ones that you got
Have always got your back
And the older I get
The better I am
At knowing when to give
And when to just not give a damn

And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn’t drink a drop and that’s the truth
Funny how it feels I’m just getting to my best years yet
The older I get

And I don’t mind all the lines
From all the times I’ve laughed and cried
Souvenirs and little signs of the life I’ve lived

The older I get
The longer I pray
I don’t know why, I guess that I’ve
Got more to say
And the older I get
The more thankful I feel
For the life I’ve had and all the life I’m living still

Watch Alan Jackson as he performs one of his Number One hit “Drive (For Daddy Gene)” at the PBS’ annual Fourth of July broadcast, 2021 A Capitol Fourth. He is one of many top performers of the show. Alan performed from the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville with the stage decorated with a series of American flags.

Alan did a comment before he performed and uttered these beautiful words: “I lost my daddy and I wanted to write a song for him, and I didn’t want to write some old sad crying, dying thing so I started thinking about growing up, and all I ever wanted to do is drive something. He taught me all about that and that’s what this song’s about.”

Alan wrote “Drive (For Daddy Gene)” as a tribute to his late father, Eugene Jackson, who died in 2000. The song was released as the second single from Jackson’s 2002 album Drive and reached No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks and peaked at No. 28 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Drive (For Daddy Gene) Lyrics

Alan Jackson

It’s painted red, the stripe was white
It was eighteen feet, from the bow to stern light
Secondhand, from a dealer in Atlanta
I rode up with daddy, when he went there to get her

Put on a shine, put on a motor
Built out of love, made for the water
Ran her for years, ’til the transom got rotten
A piece of my childhood, will never be forgotten

It was, just an old plywood boat
A ’75 Johnson with electric choke
A young boy two hands on the wheel
I can’t replace the way it made me feel
And I would turn her sharp
And I would make it whine
He’d say, You can’t beat the way an old wood boat rides

Just a little lake across the Alabama line
But I was king of the ocean
When daddy let me
Drive

Just an old half-ton shortbed Ford
My uncle bought new, in ’64
Daddy got it right, ’cause the engine was smoking
A couple of burnt valves, and he had it going

He’d let me drive her when we haul off a load
Down a dirt strip where we’d dump trash off of Thigpen Road
I’d sit up in the seat and stretch my feet out to the pedals
Smiling like a hero that just received his medal

It was just an old hand-me-down Ford
With three-speed on the column and a dent in the door
A young boy, two hands on the wheel
I can’t replace the way it made me feel and
And I would press that clutch
And I would, keep it right
He’d say, “a little slower son; you’re doing just fine”

Just a dirt road with trash on each side
But I was Mario Andretti
When daddy let me
Drive

I’m grown up now
Three daughters of my own
I let them drive my old jeep
Across the pasture at our home

Maybe one day they’ll reach back in their file
And pull out that old memory
A nd think of me and smile
And say

It was just an old worn out jeep
Rusty old floor boards
Hot on my feet
A young girl, two hands on the wheel
I can’t replace the way it, made me feel
And he’d say turn it left
And steer it right
Straighten up girl now, you’re doing just fine

Just a little valley by the river where we’d ride
But I was high on a mountain
When daddy let me
Drive

Daddy let me drive

Oh he let me, drive

It’s just an old plywood boat
With a ’75 Johnson
With electric choke

Country Boy Lyrics

Song by Alan Jackson

Excuse me ma’am, I saw you walkin’
I turned around, I’m not a stalker
Where you going? Maybe I can help you
My tank is full, I’d be obliged to take you

‘Cause I’m a country boy, I’ve got a four-wheel drive
Climb in my bed, I’ll take you for a ride
Up city streets, down country roads
I can get you where you need to go
‘Cause I’m a country boy

You sure look good, sittin’ in my right seat
Buckle up, and I’ll take you through the five speeds
Wind it up, or I can slow it way down
In the woods or right uptown
I’m a country boy, I’ve got a four-wheel drive
Climb in my bed, I’ll take you for a ride
Up city streets, down country roads
I can get you where you need to go
‘Cause I’m a country boy

Big 35’s whinin’ on the asphalt
Grabbin’ mud, and slingin’ up some red dirt
‘Cause I’m a country boy

My muffler’s loud, dual thrush tubes
I crank the music, the tone gets real good
Let me know when we’re gettin’ close
You can slide on out, or we can head on down the road

‘Cause I’m a country boy, I’ve got a four-wheel drive
Climb in my bed, I’ll take you for a ride
Up city streets, down country roads
I can get you where you want to go
‘Cause I’m a country boy

Bucket seats, soft as baby’s new butt
Lockin’ hubs, that’ll take you through a deep rut

‘Cause I’m a country boy, I’ve got a four-wheel drive
Climb in my bed, I’ll take you for a ride
Up city streets, down winding roads
I can get you where you need to go
‘Cause I’m a country boy

Yeah

Yeah I’m a country boy, I’ve got a four-wheel drive
Climb in my bed, I’ll take you for a ride
Up city streets, down country roads
I can get you where you want to go
‘Cause I’m a country boy
Yeah, I’m a country boy,
Oh, I’m just a country boy,
A nice little country boy.

She’s Got the Rhythm (And I Got the Blues) Lyrics

Song by Alan Jackson

This old bar stools feeling higher
As a started sinking lower
The minute that she waltzed right through that door
Not long ago I held her
Like a fool I went and left her
Now she’s with somebody else out on that floor

And she’s got the rhythm and I got the blues
And she’s showing me how much I had to lose
With her every little move she’s telling me I’m over you
She’s got the rhythm and I got the blues

Well that music’s gettin’ louder
As my heart keeps beatin’ faster
As she spells out regret in perfect time
Well I thought I wanted freedom
But that ball and chain I needed
‘Cause when you choose, sometimes you lose the prize

And she’s got the rhythm and I got the blues
And she’s showing me how much I had to lose
With her every little move she’s telling me I’m over you
She’s got the rhythm and I got the blues
With her every little move she’s telling me I’m over you
She’s got the rhythm and I got the blues

He Stopped Loving Her Today Lyrics

Song by George Jones

He said, “I’ll love you till I die”
She told him, “You’ll forget in time”
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
But he still loved her through it all
Hoping she’d come back again

Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single, I love you

I went to see him just today
Oh, but I didn’t see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I’d seen him smile in years

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

You know, she came to see him one last time (ooh)
Ah, and we all wondered if she would (ooh)
And it kept runnin’ through my mind (ooh)
“This time he’s over her for good”

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they’ll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

Too Much of a Good Thing Lyrics

Song by Alan Jackson

Smiles in the morning as warm as sunshine
Kisses when I lay down at night
And two loving arms to console me
I should be scared it’s so right

But too much of a good thing is a good thing
Feelings like this can’t be wrong
And too much of a good thing is a good thing
And we’ve got a good thing going on

You look in my eyes and see my thinking
I know when you’re happy, and when you’re sad
Some would say it’s too perfect
But I don’t think what we have is so bad

‘Cause too much of a good thing is a good thing
Feelings like this can’t be wrong
And too much of a good thing is a good thing
And we’ve got a good thing going on
Yeah, we’ve got a good thing going on

Where Her Heart Has Always Been

Song by Alan Jackson

“And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them
And the glory of the Lord shone round about them”

The morning light was soft and low
The clouds had left an early snow
A peaceful sound was calling low
“It’s time to go”
Then God reached out His tender hand
And gently pulled her home with Him
And brushed away the sorrow from her soul within

And I could hear the roses sing
A bluebird softly claps its wings
The sun seemed brighter than it’s ever been
And now she’s dancing in the wind
With her true love again
Where her heart has always been
Where her heart has always been

And I could hear the roses sing
A bluebird softly claps its wings
The sun seemed brighter than it’s ever been
And now she’s dancing in the wind
With her true love again
Where her heart has always been
Where her heart has always been
Where her heart has always been

The morning light was soft and low
The clouds had left an early snow

It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere Lyrics

Song by Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett

The sun is hot and that old clock
Is movin’ slow, and so am I
Work day passes like molasses
In winter time, but it’s July

Getting paid by the hour
And older by the minute
My boss just pushed me
Over the limit

I could call him something,
Think I’ll just call it a day

Pour me something tall and strong.
Make it a hurricane, before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve. But I don’t care
It’s five o’clock somewhere

This lunch break is gonna take
All afternoon, half the night
Tomorrow morning I know there’ll be hell to pay
But, hey, that’s all right

I ain’t had a day off now, in over a year
My Jamaican vacation’s gonna start right here
If the phone’s for me you can just tell them
I just sailed away

Pour me something tall and strong. Make it a big boy drink i don’t wanna think
Make it a hurricane, before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve. But I don’t care
It’s five o’clock somewhere

I could pay off my tab, pour myself in a cab
And be back to work before two
At a moment like this, I can’t help but wonder
What would Jimmy Buffett do

Pour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane, before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve, but I don’t care

Pour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane, before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve. But I don’t care, no i don’t care
It’s five o’clock somewhere

Where Do I Put Her Memory Lyrics

Song by Charley Pride

I’ve taken down all of her pictures
I’ve cleaned out all of her drawers
I’ve painted over the scratches
From all of our little wars

I’ve put away every gift
That she ever gave to me
Now everything is in its place
Except for her memory

And where do I put her memory
When it haunts me night and day
I can’t hide it in the closet
And Lord, I can’t throw it away

And where do I put her memory
When it’s always in my mind
I can’t chase it, erase it, I just have to face it
It’s gonna be there a long, long time

I got rid of the pillow
Where she used to lay her head
I’ve picked up her hairpins and curlers
That she dropped on her side of the bed

I’ve locked away each souvenir
And thrown away the key
Now everything is in it’s place
Except for her memory

And where do I put her memory
When it’s always in my mind
I can’t chase it, erase it, I just have to face it
It’s gonna be there a long, long time
It’s gonna be there a long, long time

About Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson was born in the small town of Newnan, Georgia, on October 17, 1958. He grew up singing gospel music, both in church and at home with his family. As a teenager, he performed locally as part of a country duo. He left school to work and married his high-school sweetheart, Denise, who worked as an airline stewardess. In 1989, Jackson became the first artist signed to Arista’s new country division. Jackson’s debut album, Here in the Real World, was issued in 1990. It became a platinum-selling hit on the strength of four Top Five hits. He also released “Chasin’ That Neon Rainbow,” “Wanted,” and “I’d Love You All Over Again.” He shot to full-fledged superstardom with the follow-up, 1991’s Don’t Rock the Jukebox. This song was number one smash that year. Jackson’s many industry awards include the CMA award for entertainer of the year in 1995, 2002, and 2003. In addition, he was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2017.

Murder On Music Row Lyrics

Song by Alan Jackson and George Strait

Nobody saw him running from sixteenth avenue.
They never found the fingerprint or the weapon that was used.
But someone killed country music, cut out its heart and soul.
They got away with murder down on music row.

The almighty dollar and the lust for worldwide fame
Slowly killed tradition and for that someone should hang
(oh, you tell them Alan).
They all say not guilty, but the evidence will show
That murder was committed down on music row.

For the steel guitars no longer cry and fiddles barely play,
But drums and rock ‘n roll guitars are mixed up in your face.
Old Hank wouldn’t have a chance on today’s radio
Since they committed murder down on music row.

They thought no one would miss it, once it was dead and gone
They said no one would buy them old drinking and cheating songs (I’ll still buy’em)
Well there ain’t no justice in it and the hard facts are cold
Murder’s been committed down on music row.

Oh, the steel guitars no longer cry and you can’t hear fiddles play
With drums and rock ‘n roll guitars mixed right up in your face
Why, the Hag, he wouldn’t have a chance on today’s radio
Since they committed murder down on music row
Why, they even tell the Possum to pack up and go back home
There’s been an awful murder down on music row.
