"Home" by Blake Shelton (Michael Buble/Alan Chang/Amy Foster-Gillies)

1st Chorus

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home, mmm
Maybe surrounded by a million people
I still feel all alone
I wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Bridge

And I been keeping all the letters
That I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
'I'm fine, baby, how are you?'
I would send them, but I know
That it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

2nd Chorus

Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky, I know
But I wanna go home
I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far
From where you are
I wanna come home

Bridge

And I feel just like
I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was goin' right
Hey, and I know just why
You could not come along with me
This was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Tag Chorus

Another winter day
Has come and gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home
And I'm surrounded by
A million people
I still feel alone
And I wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Tag

Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I'm comin' back home
Let me go home
It'll all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm comin' back home



   "The More I Drink" by Blake Shelton (Chris DuBois/David Lee Murphy/David Turnbull)

1st Verse

He was sittin' at the bar
Sippin' on a regular Coke
We were drinkin' and smokin'
And makin' him the butt of our jokes
We all said, 'Man, what happened to you?'
'Why can't you just have a few?'
He said, 'I would if I could
But it's probab'ly best that I don't'

Chorus

'Cause the more I drink
The more I drink
Then I'm the world's greatest lover
And a dancin' machine
I get loud
I get proud
And it gets worse
(Well) (Yeah) if I have one
I'll have thirteen
Now, there ain't no in between
'Cause the more I drink
The more I drink
(The more I drink, yep, yep)
(Mmm, that's what I'm talkin' about)

2nd Verse

A couple 'a cold ones
And somebody hands me a shot
Hell, even bucktooth and bowlegged women
Start lookin' hot
And pretty soon I'm bummin' cigarettes
And sweet talkin' some big brunette
Yeah, once I get on a roll
There ain't no tellin' where I'll stop

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag Chorus

Man, if I have one
I'll have thirteen
And they can't get me off the karaoke machine
The more I drink
The more I drink
Yeah, the more I drink
The more I drink
The more I drink



   "Don't Make Me" by Blake Shelton (Dave Berg/Deanna Bryant/Marla Cannon-Goodman)

1st Verse

Girl, when I look at you
You look through me
Like I'm not even there
I'm tryin' not to give up
To be strong, but
I'm afraid to say I'm scared
I can't find a place
Your heart is hidin'
And I'm no quitter
But I'm tired of fightin'

Chorus

Baby, I love you
Don't wanna lose you
Don't make me let you go
Took such a long time
For me to find you
Don't make me let you go
Baby, I'm beggin' please
And I'm down here on my knees
I don't wanna have to set you free
(Don't make me)
Don't make me (don't make me)

2nd Verse

What if when I'm long gone
I dawns on you
You just might want me back
Let me make myself clear
If I leave here
It's done, I'm gone, that's that
You carry my love around
Like it's a heavy burden
Well, I'm about to take it back
Are you sure it's worth it

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag Chorus

Baby, I'm beggin' please
And I'm down here on my knees
I don't wanna have to set you free
Don't make me (baby, I love you)
(Don't wanna lose you)
(Don't make me let you go)
Don't make me stop lovin' you
(Don't make me) stop needin' you



   "Nobody But Me" by Blake Shelton (Phillip White/Shawn Camp)

1st Verse

Don't waste your time lookin' over your shoulder
Those loves from the past ain't a'gettin' no closer
When I look in my future, you're all I can see
So honey, don't go lovin' on nobody but me

Chorus

Nobody but me gonna love ya like you ought to be loved on
Nobody but me gonna cry if you up and leave
Now you can do what you want to
But I'm askin' pretty please
Honey, don't go lovin' on nobody but me

2nd Verse

I took my time to tell you how I feel
Just because I took so long
Don't mean that it isn't real
Now I ain't got no diamond
But I'm down on my knees
So honey, don't go lovin' on nobody but me

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

  "The Baby" by Blake Shelton (Harley Allen/Michael White)

1st Verse

My brother said that I
Was rotten to the core
I was the youngest child
So I got by with more
I guess she was tired by
The time I came along
She'd laugh until she cried
I could do no wrong
She would always save me
Because I was her baby

1st Chorus

I worked a factory in Ohio
A shrimp boat in the bayou
I drove a truck in Birmingham
Turned twenty-one in Cincinnati
I called home to Mom and Daddy
I said your boy is now a man
She said I don't care if you're eighty
You'll always be my baby

2nd Verse

She loved that photograph
Of our whole family
She'd always point us out
For all her friends to see
That's Greg, he's doin' great
He really loves his job
And Ronnie, with his two kids
How 'bout that wife he's got
And that one's kinda crazy
But that one is my baby

2nd Chorus

I got a call in Alabama
Said come on home to Louisiana
And come as fast as you can fly
'Cause your mama really needs you
And says she's gotta see you
She might not make it through the night
The whole way I drove eighty
So she could see her baby

Tag Chorus

She looked like she was sleepin'
And my family had been weepin'
By the time that I got to her side
And I knew that she'd been taken
And my heart it was breakin'
I never got to say goodbye
I softly kissed that lady
And cried just like a baby



   "Austin" by Blake Shelton (David Kent/Kirsti Manna)

1st Verse

She left without leavin' a number
Said she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back to Austin
'Cause she talked about it all the time
It was almost a year before she called him up
Three rings and an answerin' machine is what she got

1st Chorus

If you're callin' 'bout the car, I sold it
If this is Tuesday night, I'm bowlin'
If you've got somethin' to sell
You're wastin' your time, I'm not buyin'
If it's anybody else
Wait for the tone, you know what to do
And P.S., if this is Austin, I still love you

2nd Verse

The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kind of man would hang on that long
What kind of love that must be
She waited three days, and then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say
But she heard three rings and then

2nd Chorus

If it's Friday night, I'm at the ballgame
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain
I'm headed out to the lake
And I'll be gone, all weekend long
But I'll call you back when I get home
On Sunday afternoon
And P.S., if this is Austin, I still love you

Bridge

Well, this time she left her number
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone on Sunday evenin'
And this is what he heard

Tag Chorus

If you're callin' 'bout my heart
It's still yours
I should've listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have taken me so long
To know where I belong
And by the way, boy
This is no machine you're talkin' to
Can't you tell, this is Austin, and I still love you
I still love you
