Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It (Live from Tootsie's Orchid Lounge)

V6

[Band Settling / Acoustic Guitar Picking] [Colt] You know what I've figured out? Everybody's always tryin' to upgrade somethin'. New truck... New phone... Bigger house... [Pause] Hell, some of y'all are probably lookin' for a new boyfriend tonight. [Crowd Laughs / Woman Cheers] See? Already got one taker. [Colt laughs] But me? If somethin's still doin' what it's supposed to do... Leave the damn thing alone. [Guitar Kicks Into Groove] [Verse 1] Got a truck from '95, still rolls just fine Six-pack chillin' in the creek out behind Ain't got a big house, but I got me some land And a girl who loves me just the way I am [Fiddle Answers Vocal] [Pre-Chorus] Some folks want more Always chasin' gold... But I'm sittin' right here... Watchin' life unfold. [Band Builds] [Chorus] If it ain't broke, don't fix it! If the song still plays Let the record keep spinnin' If the beer's still cold And the sun still shines Why change a thing when it's workin' just right? Little backroad livin' Little six-string pickin' Yeah... If it ain't broke... Don't fix it. [Fiddle Rip / Crowd Cheers] [Colt] That's right. [Verse 2] Got a fishin' hole where the bass still bite Good dog runnin' through the firefly night Got some boots with miles, but they fit just right Ain't needin' no change when the stars align [Pedal Steel Fill] [Pre-Chorus] Some folks want more Always chasin' gold... But I'm sittin' right here... Watchin' life unfold. [Chorus] If it ain't broke, don't fix it! If the song still plays Let the record keep spinnin' If the beer's still cold And the sun still shines Why change a thing when it's workin' just right? Little backroad livin' Little six-string pickin' Yeah... If it ain't broke... Don't fix it. [Crowd Applause] [Instrumental Break — Fiddle Takes Lead] [Colt] Come on now! [Fiddle Solo / Acoustic Guitar Trading Licks] [Colt laughs] Boy, that's country right there! [Band Pulls Back] [Bridge — Colt & Guitar Only] Some say the world's... Movin' too fast... [Slow Guitar Picking] I just crack one open... And lean on the past... [Pause] Ain't sayin' nothin' ever oughta change... I'm just sayin'... Don't throw away a good thing... Just 'cause somethin' newer came. [Crowd Reacts] [Colt] You know what I'm sayin'? [Crowd Cheers] [Full Band Slams Back In] [Final Chorus] If it AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT! If the song still plays Let the record keep spinnin' If the beer's still cold And the sun still shines Why change a thing when it's workin' just right? Little backroad livin' Little six-string pickin' Yeah, if it ain't broke... DON'T FIX IT! [Band Keeps Playing / Fiddle Takes Over] [Outro] If it's workin' just fine... Don't mess with a good time... If she's still holdin' you tight... Boy, you're doin' alright... [Colt laughs] And if that old truck starts every mornin'... Don't you dare touch that son of a bitch. [Crowd Laughs / Cheers] [Fiddle & Pedal Steel Trading Licks] If it's workin' just fine... Don't mess... With a good time... [Big Final Band Hit] [Crowd Applause / Whistles] Thank y'all!
