This post of because of Jennifer Bussey. She love this song and this band. Somehow, her love has rubbed off. They say your friends influence you, and it's true! But luckily, she's a great influence. This is the first song by Jump Little Children that Bussey played for me last semester, and it needs to be passed on. It's called Mexico:

I won't let you go. I won't let you go
Not to Detroit City. Not to Chicago.

And I won't let you go. I won't let you go
Not to Mississippi. Not to Tupelo.

But if you're gonna leave
I'm asking you to please
Go all the way to Mexico.

I won't let you leave. I won't let you leave
Not with all my Django, Emmy Lou and Steve.

I won't let you leave. I won't let you leave
Not with my revival tucked down in the sleeve.

But if you're going to go
Take the ones you gave to me
All the way to Mexico.

All the way to the shore of California Bay and I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time.

And I won't set you free. I won't set you free
Not to say it's over. Come right back to me.

But if you're gonna go
I'm giving you the key
But only if you'll go to Mexico.

All the way to the shore of California Bay and I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time.

All the way to the shore of California Bay and I'll be fine
'Cause I have taken you back for the last time.

So if you're gonna go baby won't you please go all the way to Mexico
All the way to Mexico

Bebo Norman "borrow mine"

Take my hand and walk with me a while

Cause it seems your smile has left you
And don't give in, when you fall apart
And your broken heart has failed you
I'll set a light up on a hilltop
To show you my love for this world to see

You can borrow mine when your hope is gone
Borrow mine when you can't go on
'Cause the world will not defeat you
When we're side by side
When your faith is hard to find
You can borrow mine

Take my love when all that you can see
Is the raging sea all around us
And don't give up 'cause I'm not letting go
And the God we know will not fail us
We'll lay it all down as we call out
Sweet Savior help our unbelief

You can borrow mine when your hope is gone
Borrow mine when you can't go on
'Cause the world will not defeat you
When we're side by side
When your faith is hard to find
You can borrow mine

When you are weak
Unable to speak
You are not alone
The God who has saved us
Will never forsake us
he's coming to take us
Take us to our home

You can borrow mine when your hope is gone
Borrow mine when you can't go on
'Cause the world will not defeat you
When we're side by side
When your faith is hard to find
When your faith is hard to find
You can borrow mine

Take my hand
Take my love
Don't give in
Don't give up

June and Johnny Cash "Time's a wastin" lyrics

Johnny: Now I’ve got arms
June: And I’ve got arms
Together: Let’s get together and use those arms
June: Let’s go
Together: Time’s a wastin’

Johnny: I’ve got lips
June: And I’ve got lips
Together: Let’s get together and use those lips
June: Let’s go
Together: Time’s a wastin’

June: A cake’s no good if you don’t mix the batter and bake it
Johnny: And love’s just a bubble if you don’t take the trouble to make it
Together: So if you’re free to go with me
Together: I’ll take you quicker than 1-2-3
June: Let’s go
Johnny: Time’s a wastin’

(Instrumental Break)

Johnny: Now I’ve got blues
June: And I’ve got blues
Together: Let’s get acquainted and lose those blues
June: Let’s go
Together: Time’s a wastin’

Johnny: Now I’ve got feet
June: And I’ve got feet
Together: Let’s start to walk with a lover’s beat
June: Let’s go
Together: Time’s a wastin’

June: You’ve got me feelin love like I never have felt it
Johnny: You’re full of sugar and I’m think I’m the burner to melt it

Johnny: Now I’ve got schemes
June: And I’ve got schemes
Together: Let’s get together and dream some dreams
June: Let’s go
Together: Time’s a wastin’

Everytime by simple plan

It was three AM when you woke me up

And we jumped in the car and drove as far as we could go
Just to get away, We talked about our lives
Until the sun came up and now I'm thinking about
How I wish I could go back
Just for one more day, One more day with you

Everytime I see your face, Everytime you look my way
It's like it all falls into place and everything feels right
Ever since you walked away You left my life in disarray
All I want is one more day
All I need is one more day with you

When the car broke down, We just kept walkin along
Til we hit this town there was nothing there at all
But that was all okay
We spent all our money on stupid things
But if I looked back now, I'd probably give it all away
Just for one more day One more day with you

Everytime I see your face, Everytime you look my way
It's like it all falls into place and everything feels right
Ever since you walked away my life's been in disarray
All I want is one more day, All I need is one more day with you

Now I'm sittin here, like we used to do
I think about my life and how now there's nothing I won't do
Just for one more day One more day with you

Everytime I see your face, Everytime you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right (Everything feels right)
Everytime I hear your name, Everytime I feel the same
It's like it all falls into place, Everything feels right

You walked away just one more day
It's all I need, just one more day with you

"beer in mexico" kenny chesney

Starin' out into the wild blue yonder, So many thoughts to sit and ponder
'Bout life and love and lack of and this emptiness in my heart

Too old to be wild and free still too young to be over the hill
Should I try to grow up but who knows where to start

So I just ... Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico
Do my best to waste another day
Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico
Let the warm air melt these blues away

Sun comes up and sun sinks down and I seen 'em both in this tourist town
Up for days in a rage just tryin' to search my soul

From the answers and the reasons why I'm at these crossroads in my life
And I really don't know which way to go

So I just ... Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico
Do my best to waste another day
Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico
Let the warm air melt these blues away

Maybe I'll settle down, get married or stay single and stay free
Which road I travel is still a mystery to me

So I'll just ... Sit right here, have another beer in Mexico
Do my best to waste another day
Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico
Let the warm air melt these blues away

Down in Mexico ...
