Don't Forget Earl [Verse 1] Pulled off the highway into some old town, Parked at the diner as the sun went down, About to get out but I decided to stay, Because Boot Scootin' Boogie had started to play. [Verse 2] Took me way back to those easier days, Clinging to the pieces as the memories fade. Didn't care about wrong we didn't need to be right, Forget about tomorrow, what we doing tonight? [Verse 3] It was when... Islands in the Stream and Kenny Rogers, Randy's love ran deeper than that holler. Achy Breaky Heart and time marched on, And George left Texas in that one song. [Chorus] Back then it was... Garth and those friends in low places, Neon moons and Wide Open Spaces, And Tim asked God not to take that girl, Write This Down and they killed Earl. [Verse 4] Back when I heard... That God blessed Texas with His own hand, And I'll be leaving here a better man, Somewhere out there is a love without end, And dreams are like a river so just hop in. [Chorus] Back then it was... Garth and those friends in low places, Neon moons and Wide Open Spaces, And Tim asked God not to take that girl, Write This Down and they killed Earl. [Verse 5] Took me back to... That Mountain Music and Why Not Me, Livin' on Love and Chattahoochee, Singing every word like we all belonged, When George left Texas in that one song... [Final Chorus] I remember we had... Garth and those friends in low places, Neon moons and Wide Open Spaces, And Tim asked God not to take that girl, Write This Down and don't forget Earl.
