Got me the strangest woman
Believe me, this chick is no cinch
But I really get her going when I whip out my big 10 inch record of a band that plays the blues
Well, a band that plays its blues
She just loves my big 10 inch record of her favorite blues

Last night I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
She said now stop that jiving
Now whip out your big 10 inch record of a band that plays those blues
Well, a band that plays the blues
She just loves my big 10 inch record of her favorite blues

I cover her with kisses
And when we’re in a lover’s clinch she gets all excited
Then she begs for my big 10 inch record of a band that plays those blues
Well, a band that plays the blues
She just love my big 10 inch record of her favorite blues

My girl don’t go for smoking and liquor just make her flinch
Seems she don’t go for nothing except for my big 10 inch record of a band that plays the blues
She just love my big 10 inch record of her favorite blues

We’re a Long, Long Way From Home

She Put the “Y” in “Try”

This song represents the peculiar crossroads of three things: 01) Nashville music production, 02) a foolish man’s broken heart, and 03) the dimmest imaginable light of inspiration.

On a side note, it’s worth pointing out that the song is exactly 3:00 minutes long, which is the length that all songs would be if the corporate music world had its way.


She’s Got a Way with Words icon-external-link-12x12 icon-search-12x12 (track 02 from the If I’m Honest LP by Blake Shelton icon-external-link-12x12 icon-search-12x12 )

When you put two and two together you figure out that “love” has got four letters
I should have known that when I met her, but she had to spell it out for me
After all that second guessing, it’s been a long hard history lesson
That’s a class I got an F in, but now I understand perfectly

She put the “hur” in “hurt”
She put the “Y” in “try”
She put the “S.O.B.” in “sober”
She put the “hang” in “hangover”
She put the “ex” in “sex”
She put the “low” in “blow”
She put a big “F.U.” in my “future”
She’s got a way with words

Little words like “I” and “do”—lying, cheating, screwed
Yeah all the words I thought I knew, they got a brand new meaning now

She put the “hur” in “hurt”
She put the “Y” in “try”
She put the “S.O.B.” in “sober”
She put the “hang” in “hangover”
She put the “ex” in “sex”
She put the “low” in “blow”
She put a big “F.U.” in my “future”
She’s got a way with words
