Brooks and Dunn's Last Rodeo

"We never take this stuff for granted. The longer we're out here, too, in a lot of ways, the more we appreciate it." ~Kix Brooks

Last weekend was my Brooks and Dunn celebration apparently. On Saturday night I got to see them in concert. You know how you go to some concerts and the singers are just not as good live as they are on the cd after the record people work their magic? Let me assure you, they just might be better. On Sunday night, I watched the tribute special on tv.

I've always loved Brooks and Dunn--I remember being a kid and Boot Scootin' Boogie was pretty much the coolest song ever. They are wrapping up their last tour ever, titled Last Rodeo. I was going to post a video of my favorite Brooks and Dunn song, but I couldn't pick one. Instead, I decided to post some of my favorite lyrics and videos of my three favorite songs. Hope you enjoy!

God won't make a mountain I can't climb. (Getting Better All The Time)

Lessons in life are gonna show you in time, soon enough you're gonna know why. It's gonna hurt every now and then, if you fall get back on again. (Cowgirls Don't Cry)









No matter where you are, you're always on my heart...I may never get over you. (I May Never Get Over You)

I'm proud of the house we built. It's stronger than sticks, stones and steel. It's not a big place sittin' high on some hill, a lot of things will come and go but love never will. (Proud of the House We Built)

I know in the big picture, I'm just a speck of sand and God's got better things to do than look out for one man. I know he's heard my prayers cause he hear's everything, he just ain't answered back. (God Must Be Busy)

You're the man of the house you better think of something 'cause Mama don't get dressed up for nothing. (Mama Don't Get Dressed Up for Nothing)

I'm a lonely dreamer on a highway in the skies...she's the sunlight when my skies are grey, she treats me so right lady take me away (My Maria)

I think of two young lovers, running wild and free and close my eyes and sometimes see you in the shadow of this smoke filled room. (Neon Moon)









One kid dreams of fame and fortune, one kid helps pay the rent. One could end up going to prison, one just might be President. (Only In America)

'Til you put a girl in it you ain't got nothin'. What's it all worth without a little lovin'? (Put a Girl In It)

I learned the path to heaven is for the sinners and believers. Learned that happniess on Earth ain't just for high achievers. (Red Dirt Road)

She kissed him on the cheek, daddy's little girl. Then a woman walked out to take on the world. (She Was Born to Run)

He didn't know what a good thing he had, now it's too late and that's too bad! (She's Not the Cheating Kind)

Threw back a shot, yelled I'm a George Strait junkie! (Play Something Country)

The dance fooor's hoppin' and it's hotter than the Fourth of July. (Boot Scootin' Boogie)
