(Lyrics to the Full Album on one page)

Flatliner

[Verse 1 - Cole Swindell:]
Dang, girl, look at you stoppin' me in my boots
What's a country boy to do but say uh huh
Smile beatin' my chest up, you're downright dangerous
That shake in your giddy up got my eyes going what what

[Chorus - Cole Swindell:]
Sippin' on this 7-7, never been this close to heaven
Got her pretty turned up to 11
Droppin' 'em dead on the dance floor
Somebody better call a doctor
She's a little heart stopper
I'm talkin' breaker breaker one niner
She's a flatliner
Oh, she's a flatliner

[Verse 2 - Dierks Bentley:]
Dang, girl, I'm done, I ain't never seen no one
Poppin' it like a cold one and drop it down like uh huh
Oh my, see the light, I don't mean the neon kind
One kiss from you tonight and send me on to the other side

[Chorus - Cole Swindell:]
Sippin' on this 7-7, never been this close to heaven
Got her pretty turned up to 11
Droppin' 'em dead on the dance floor
Somebody better call a doctor
She's a little heart stopper
I'm talkin' breaker breaker one niner
She's a flatliner

[Bridge - Cole Swindle & Dierks Bentley:]
Dang, girl, look at you stoppin' me in my boots
What's a country boy to do?
What would Dierks do?
Grab a guitar and go sing her a song
And go play one of my songs?
No, don't play one of yours, play one of mine, man!

[Chorus - Dierks Bentley & Cole Swindell:]
Yeah, sippin' on this 7-7, never been this close to heaven
Got her pretty turned up to 11
Droppin' 'em dead on the dance floor
Somebody better call a doctor
She's a little heart stopper
I'm talkin' breaker breaker one niner
She's a flatliner
Sippin' on this 7-7, never been this close to heaven
Got her pretty turned up to 11
Droppin' 'em dead on the dance floor
Somebody better call a doctor
She's a little heart stopper
I'm talkin' breaker breaker one niner
She's a flatliner

[Outro - Cole Swindell & Dierks Bentley:]
She's a flatliner
Yeah, man, she's gonna hurt somebody
Dude, she's worth the whiskey, bro, go get her one
Yeah, she's a flatliner

Middle Of A Memory

Baby, it just took one look at you
For me to change my one drink order to two
Like we already knew each other
Like we been talking all night
About a minute into our first dance
We got blindsided by your friends
All in a hurry like you had to go
Didn't they know you can't leave someone
Girl, you can't leave someone

In the middle of a dance floor all alone
In the middle of an old school country song
Right when I was just about to lean on in
Why'd you have to go then?
Baby, in the middle of the glow of the neon light
It shoulda, coulda, woulda been the night of our lives
Girl, it ain't right, no
How you gonna leave me right in the middle of a memory?

We were gonna dance till they shut it down
People'd be staring while I spin you 'round
Thinking we were so in love, yeah
They wouldn't know we hadn't even hooked up
I'd get your number and I'd give you mine
And we'd be hanging out tomorrow night
But now I don't know where you are
I'm under these lights right here in the dark

In the middle of a dance floor all alone
In the middle of an old school country song
Right when I was just about to lean on in
Why'd you have to go then?
Baby, in the middle of the glow of the neon light
It shoulda, coulda, woulda been the night of our lives
Girl, it ain't right, no
How you gonna leave me right in the middle of a memory?

Yeah, it's like you walked right out in the middle of a movie
Tore the back half out of a book
And no, you'll never know, girl, what you did to me
It ain't right saying goodbye

In the middle of a dance floor all alone
In the middle of what could've been our song
Right when I was just about to lean on in
Why'd you have to go then?
Baby, in the middle of the glow of the neon light
It shoulda, coulda, woulda been the night of our lives
But, girl, it ain't right, no
How you gonna leave me right in the middle of a memory?
In the middle of a memory
In the middle of a memory

Broke Down

Old school McGraw coming out of my doors
Had to pull over, couldn't take it no more
Got this thing running in park, hazards lighting up the dark
I was just out driving around wast scanning for a memory to slow me down
But damn if yours didn't baby
I'd'a paid that DJ not to play it

Cause I'm sitting here knowing what its gonna take to fix me
It ain't a bar, ain't the beer, it ain't the whiskey
I'd give anything to hear ya say ya miss me tonight
Yeah anybody else with any kind of sense
woulda done moved on said it is what it is
But I'm off on the shoulder in a mess, all wrecked inside
Baby I'm broke down and it ain't the truck this time

People slowing down wanna see whats wrong
I got my hand out the window just waving em on
Cause I don't wanna have to explain
Don't want know one to see me this way
Don't need no gas, don't need no ride
Everything on this Chevy is running just fine
I just need another minute or two
Till this songs over like me and you

I'm sitting here knowing what its gonna take to fix me
It ain't a bar, ain't the beer, it ain't the whiskey
I'd give anything to hear ya say you miss me tonight
Yeah anybody else with any kind of sense
woulda done moved on said it is what it is
But I'm off on the shoulder in a mess all wrecked inside
Yeah baby I'm broke down and it ain't the truck this time

Yeah anybody else with any kind of sense
woulda done moved on but I'm here like this,
off on the shoulder in a mess all wrecked inside
Yeah baby I'm broke down but it ain't the truck this time
No it ain't the truck this time

I got nowhere go, nowhere to be
I'm nobody baby if you don't love me

Home Game

Boot flask full of Jack
Nobody'd look, nobody'd ask
Holding out on a 10 o'clock 12-pack
Win or lose, it didn't matter
Cause soon as those jerseys hit the field
You know that's when it got real
With the rivalry's and ride-with-me's
And let-me-know-where-you're-gonna-be's

At the home game, we'd rock
That small town fame in the parking lot
All the pretty girls yelling "Go Big Blue"
Best part never made the front page news
It was under the bleachers
Cigarette stain on my lips from Cowboy Red
And her kiss and all of it, all of it, yeah
Gone in a flash, the times that we had
Got the pictures to prove the good and the bad
It's just what we did and now nothing's changed
They're still falling in love at the home game

T8 still on her cheek
Party in a field, she danced with me
That pull you close, bottled up all week
Win or lose, it didn't matter

At the home game, we'd rock
That small town fame in the parking lot
All the pretty girls yelling "Go Big Blue"
Best part never made the front page news
It was under the bleachers
Cigarette stain on my lips from Cowboy Red
And her kiss and all of it, all of it, yeah
Gone in a flash, the times that we had
Got the pictures to prove the good and the bad
It's just what we did and now nothing's changed
They're still falling in love at the home game

We had those bragging rights to all those Friday nights
The stadium lights, those stadium lights

At the home game, we'd rock
That small town fame in the parking lot
All the pretty girls yelling "Go Big Blue"
Best part never made the front page news
It was under the bleachers
Cigarette stain on my lips from Cowboy Red
And her kiss and all of it, all of it, yeah
Gone in a flash, the times that we had
Got the pictures to prove the good and the bad
It's just what we did and now nothing's changed
They're still falling in love at the home game
Yeah, they're still falling in love at the home game

Up

You're up on your high heels, you're up on the bar
You're up on a level, up there with the shooting stars
Dancing around the drinks with honkey tonk angel wings
Making the party sing, yeah, that's my baby
It ain't even midnight yet, there's a whole lot of neon left
Looks like we're gonna get all kinds of crazy

We'll be up like the sun in the New Jersey sky
Up like the wheels on a Bahama flight
Twisting that bottle, tipping that cup
Girl, the way you rock me, you know that you got me up

You're up on the tailgate, you're up on a 3 beer buzz
You're up like the music pumping out of the cab of my truck
Up where the city lights came can't but get, get outshines
By the blue jeans and brown eyes I pull in closer
Yeah, this night's far from over with

Still up like the sun in the New Jersey sky
Up like the wheels on a Bahama flight
Twisting that bottle, tipping that cup
Girl, the way you rock me, you know that you got me
Up on a high like I'm walking on clouds
Baby, tonight I don't wanna come down

You'll be up like the sun in the New Jersey sky
Up like the wheels on a Bahama flight
Twisting that bottle, tipping that cup
Girl, the way you rock me, you know that you got me
Up on a high like I'm walking on clouds
Baby, tonight I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna come down

Party Wasn't Over

There she was, little blue jean buzz
Just bare footing around
I said, "What's up?" She hopped in the truck
And we were right away running the town

She's the kinda girl that walks in to your lonely world
And everything dark just lights up
But all summers end, now she's gone with the wind
And the reason I spend so many nights up

Somebody, somebody shoulda told her
This party, this party wasn't over
Hands up in the air, still swaying
That band she loves still playing
She had this old boy from the boondocks
Sweet talking, walking on moon rocks
I wish somebody woulda told her
This party, this party wasn't over
This party, this party wa-wa-wasn't over

I still hear her laughing like it just happened
Like I was just with her hear
Well, she had the magic and I had the habit
But then she just disappeared

See, I'm the kinda guy that just can't get her off my mind
No matter how hard I try, she's all I think about
Another lesson learned, but hey, the world still turns
So I guess it's time to turn another drink up

Somebody, somebody shoulda told her
This party, this party wasn't over
Hands up in the air, still swaying
That band she loves still playing
She had this old boy from the boondocks
Sweet talking, walking on moon rocks
I wish somebody woulda told her
This party, this party wasn't over

These days, I can't even hear a wave crash
And I get carried away and go George Strait back
To a slow dance out in the sand
When the keg was still cold and she was holding my hand

Somebody, somebody shoulda told her
This party, this party wasn't over
Hands up in the air, still swaying
That band she loves still playing
She had this old boy from the boondocks
Sweet talking, walking on moon rocks
I wish somebody woulda told her
This party, this party wasn't over

No, it wasn't over
Yeah, this party, this party, this party wasn't over
Hands still swaying, band still playing
Damn, this party wasn't over
This party, this party, this party wasn't over
This party, this party, this party wasn't over

Stay Downtown

When I feel my phone buzzing, ain't even gotta look down
I know it's you that's calling, a couple drinks in by now
So I say, "Hello," you say, "Hey, babe"
Say you're 'bout to catch a cab over to my place
"See you in five," but, baby, this time

Stay downtown
Keep moving your heels on the floor
Let the bartender pour you up another round
Tip the cover band, find another hand
To dance and call him your rebound
Another late night love, another last call crush
With the neon shining down
Girl, this time around, stay downtown

Ain't gonna lie, if you knock on my door
I'm gonna let you walk in
Let you leave drunk lipstick marks like tattoos on my skin
But you know in the morning
We're gonna regret everything we did
So why even start what ain't good for our parts

Stay downtown
Keep moving your heels on the floor
Let the bartender pour you up another round
Tip the cover band, find another hand
To dance and call him your rebound
Another late night love, another last call crush
With the neon shining down
Girl, this time around, stay downtown

Keep sipping your drink, keep spinning the room
Keep chasing the night like you always do
Keep letting gate good times play
Don't let me get in your way

Stay downtown
Keep moving your heels on the floor
Let the bartender pour you up another round
Tip the cover band, find another hand
To dance and call him your rebound
Another late night love, another last call crush
With the neon shining down
Girl, this time around, stay downtown
Stay downtown
Yeah, this time around, baby, stay downtown

You Should Be Here

It's perfect outside it's like God let me dial up the weather
Got the whole crew here, I ain't seen some of them in forever.
It's one of those never forget it, better stop and take it in kinda scenes.
Everything's just right yeah except for one thing.

You should be here, standing with your arm around me here.
Cutting up, cracking a cold beer, saying cheers, hey y'all it's sure been a good year.
It's one of those moments, that's got your name written all over it.
And you know that if I had just one wish it'd be that you didn't have to miss this
You should be here.

You'd be taking way too many pictures on your phone.
Showing them off to everybody that you know back home.
And even some you don't yeah
They say now you're in a better place
And I would be too if I could see your face.

You should be here, standing with your arm around me here.
Cutting up, cracking a cold beer, saying cheers, hey y'all it's sure been a good year.
It's one of those moments, that's got your name written all over it.
And you know that if I had just one wish it'd be that you didn't have to miss this.
Aw you should be here.

You'd be loving this, you'd be freaking out, you'd be smiling, yeah
I know you'd be all about what's going on right here right now.
God I wish somehow you could be here.

Oh you should be here.

Yeah this is one of those moments that's got your name written all over it
And you know that if I have just one wish it'd be that you didn't have to miss this.
Aw you should be here.
You should be here.

Stars

You wish on a party underneath 'em
Way out there where it's easy to see 'em, stars
Yeah, if they line, tonight you're gonna
Thank your lucky ones for shining down on you, stars

You stopped and filled up
With a red and black one at the Texaco
She hopped in your truck
Sang alone with one on the radio
Big red one going down
Feel like one in a small town
Parked way out in the dark
And they danced on the hood
She was sitting on the shining light
Then gave you that look
They were in her eyes, she couldn't hide 'em
By the end of the night, you were falling just like stars

You stare at 'em, swear if you could reach 'em
You'd give her one cause she's got you seeing the stars
Since that night she stole your heart

You stopped and filled up
With a red and black one at the Texaco
She hopped in your truck
Sang alone with one on the radio
Big red one going down
Feel like one in a small town
Parked way out in the dark
And they danced on the hood
She was sitting on the shining light
Then gave you that look
They were in her eyes, she couldn't hide 'em
By the end of the night, you were falling just like stars

She fell from 'em so you point your prayers at 'em
Cause she's got you feeling about as high as 'em

Since you stopped and filled up
With a red and black one at the Texaco
She hopped in your truck
Sang alone with one on the radio
Big red one going down
Feel like one in a small town
Parked way out in the dark
And they danced on the hood
She was sitting on the shining light
Then gave you that look
They were in her eyes, she couldn't hide 'em
By the end of the night, you were falling just like stars
Stars

Making My Way To You

Girl I swear
I get scared looking in your eyes
Start thinking about where I'd be now
If I wasn't with you tonight
I've done a lot of crazy things
But you saved me and you reeled me in
There ain't no doubt
I'd take us right now
Over me back when

A lot of beer got drank
A lot of hell got raised
A lot of nights got long
But that was long
Before I saw your face
Now baby I'm holding on
To what I never wanna lose
I took a few wrong turns
Down a couple back roads
But wound up where
I was supposed to

Making my way
Making my way to you
Yeah, Making my way
Making my way to you

Now I know why all those
Wrong ones didn't work out
It's easy to see
But hard to believe
That I got my arms around

My forever, I coulda never
Dreamed it up this good
Ain't it funny how
Things work out
Better than you
Thought they would

Back when a lot of beer got drank
A lot of hell got raised
A lot of nights got long
But that was long
Before I saw your face
Now baby I'm holding on
To what I never wanna lose
I took a few wrong turns
Down a couple back roads
But wound up where
I was supposed to
Making my way to you

I didn't know what
I was looking for
No, I didn't have a clue
Next thing I know
I'm thanking the lord
For everything I went through

Making my way
Making my way to you
While I was
Makng my way
Making my way to you, yeah

A lot of beer got drank
A lot of hell got raised
A lot of nights got long
But that was long
Before I saw your face
Now baby I'm holding on
To what I never wanna lose
I took a few wrong turns
Down a couple back roads
But wound up where
I was supposed to

Making my way
Making my way to you
Baby, I've been
Making my way
Making my way to you

Yeah, a lot of beer got drank
A lot of hell got raised
A lot of nights got long
But that was long
Before I saw your face

No Can Left Behind

Raise em up high
If you're with me tonight
It's no can left behind

Let me lay it
All out on the table
If you're here then
You're willing and able
To let go of that long week
And get a little weekend
Carried away

How 'bout a 12-pack packed
Just between us
We're gonna drink 'em all gone
Y'all, this is some serious stuff
As far as I can tell
They can't consume themselves
So let's throw
A little help their way

Raise em up high
If you're with me tonight
We're on a cold case mission
I got your back if you got mine
To hell with our problems
Yeah, we 'bout to solve 'em
With every single ounce we got
That's right it's no can
No can left behind

It might take us all night long
And a whole bunch of country songs
But everything hang in there
Till our work around here's through

Y'all know what to do
I'll be right back

Hey, hey good looking
What'd you come here for
Oh you ain't just thirsty
Well, tell me more
I knew it, it's your ex
Yeah, I've had a few
So this cold one's for you

Raise em up high
If you're with me tonight
We're on a cold case mission
I got your back if you got mine
Yeah, to hell with our problems
Yeah, we 'bout to solve 'em
With every single ounce we got
That's right it's no can
No can left behind

Aw, solo

Hopefully not gonna
Have to roll outta here tonight

With a little team working
We can put a little hurting
On everything cold and light
All in favor say I
It's no can, no can left
I said no can
Yeah, everybody's helped
Till there's no can
No can left behind
Alright

A pretty good plan y'all
The beer's not gonna drink itself
So uh, there's a couple left
There's one for me
I'll just keep that one cold
I don't trust ya to drink it all

Remember Boys

Remember boys, never let a lady open the door
And be there with a lighter if she wants a smoke
Remember boys, never let her go to sleep crying
When she tells you about her dreams you gotta fill em up with hope

Cause I don't wanna be a "one night" boy
And I don't want to be an "ain't right" boy
I don't wanna be a "had a ball, waited out no call kind of love song" boy
I don't wanna be a regret or the one that she forgets
I don't wanna be a June till September
I wanna be one those remember boys

Remember boys, always open her beer first
And tell her that you love her, even when she makes you mad
And remember boys, no matter you make it work
you want her need and her and fight to keep her
let her know you know what you have

I don't wanna be a "one night" boy
And I don't want to be an "ain't right" boy
I don't wanna be a "had a ball, waited out no call kind of love song" boy
I don't wanna be a regret or the one that she forgets
I don't wanna be a June till September
I wanna be one those remember boys

No i don't wanna be a "late night" boy
I don't wanna be a heart break boy
I don't wanna be a "can't trust him with your love", kind of loser boy
I don't wanna be be a regret
Or the one she forgets
I don't wanna be a June till September
I wanna be one those remember boys

That's right...

I wanna be one of those remember boys

Hoppin'

(Bonus Track)

Here we go y'all
It's going down tonight

Me and the boys, headed down to the club
Rolling 5 deep, all packed in the truck
Kicking up dust, we 'bout to bust through the door
They ain't ever seen nothing like us before
But they about to
Who's with me, how about you
Yeah

It's about to get
Hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here
Talking girls pouring the shots
Boys spilling their beer
Everybody dancing with their hands up
The DJ playing what you wanna hear
If you rocking the smoke, rocking the drink
If you ain't gonna stop, then you rolling with me
We'll worry 'bout tomorrow when we wake up
Getting right tonight before it disappears
It's about to get hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here
It's about to get hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here

No, we ain't the only ones came here with a plan
The hot girl in the corner's got four hot friends
A couple 10-10's, gather down and we're in
So it's a win-win, cause we 'bout to get bent
In a good way, looks like we found the right place
Hey

It's about to get
Hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here
Talking girls pouring the shots
Boys spilling their beer
Everybody dancing with their hands up
The DJ playing what you wanna hear
If you rocking the smoke, rocking the drink
If you ain't gonna stop, then you rolling with me
We'll worry 'bout tomorrow when we wake up
Getting right tonight before it disappears
It's about to get hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here

Talking girls pouring the shots
Boys spilling their beer
Everybody dancing with their hands up
The DJ playing what you wanna hear
If you rocking the smoke, rocking the drink
If you ain't gonna stop, then you rolling with me
We can worry 'bout tomorrow when we wake up
Getting right tonight before it disappears
Oh yeah, it's about to get hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here
It's about to get hoppin' in here, hoppin' in here
Hoppin' in here, oh yeah

Everybody, everybody got their hands up
It's a party tonight
We'll worry about tomorrow when we wake up
Ha ha

Gettin' Forgotten

(Bonus Track)

The dam broke in her blue eyes
When that goodbye
Slipped off of my tongue
I said, "Girl, you gonna be fine"
"In no time, you'll be moving on"

I didn't think it'd be this fast
But looking through the plate glass
Of this bar

She's up on stage, singing with a frat band
Shoes in her left, beer in her right hand
Got me shakin' my head, good god man
I must have been blind
She got her friends and her free bird face on
Boys buzzin, got 'em getting their chase on
No signs of her putting them brakes on
And no doubt in my mind
That she's just getting rockin'
And I'm gettin' forgotten tonight

Yeah, I was wanting these new wings
So I could do things
Anything that I want
Thought I was gonna fly high
Turns out I couldn't be more wrong
I think I got a broken pair
Cause I should be up there
Where she is

Yeah, way up on stage, singing with a frat band
Shoes in her left, beer in her right hand
Got me shakin' my head, good god man
I must have been blind
She got her friends and her free bird face on
The boys buzzin, got 'em getting their chase on
No signs of her putting them brakes on
And no doubt in my mind
That she's just getting rockin'
And I'm gettin' forgotten tonight

This ain't what I had in mind
This heart full of regret
Forever left behind
With this picture in my head

Of her up on stage, singing with a frat band
Shoes in her left, beer in her right hand
Got me wishing that I was that mic stand
Man, I was so blind
She got her friends and her free bird face on
The boys buzzin, got 'em getting their chase on
And no signs of her putting them brakes on
And no doubt in my mind
That she's just getting rockin'
And I'm gettin' forgotten tonight

That's right
And she's up there rocking
And I'm getting forgotten tonight
