  • This is a little song I wrote a few years back...hope you enjoy it!
    Here are the full lyrics:
    Nothing Like You
    I was feeling kind of restless on a Saturday night
    Staying home to watch a movie just didn’t seem right
    So I went to my closet and I grabbed my red dress
    and I wiggled right into it with a little finesse
    I didn’t really know what I had put it on for
    but before I even knew it I was heading for the door
    Grabbed my keys from the counter and a beer from the fridge
    and I headed for the tavern up on Chicataw Ridge
    He was standing in the corner with a whiskey in his hand
    and I was thinking to myself that he was my kind of man
    When he looked at me and smiled, well that was all she wrote
    So I grabbed myself a napkin and I scribbled him a note:
    Darlin’ I ain’t never seen nothing like you
    with that smile so bright and those eyes so blue
    If you’ve got a little time then I can make you see…
    that you ain’t never seen nothing like me
    So I wandered over to him and I asked him to dance
    like every other woman who had gotten the chance
    but instead of saying no like I thought he might do
    he just took me by the hand and said “It’s long overdue”
    I wasn’t really sure what he was talking about
    but the way he held me tight my heart was starting to shout
    that this might be the man that I’ve been trying to find
    and the passion in his arms just drove me out of my mind
    Honey I ain’t never held nothing like you
    you have no idea the kind of things that you do
    to a sweet little countrified woman like me
    why don’t you take me home so I can set you free?
    I slipped the note into his pocket while we circled around
    and I swear I don’t believe my feet were touching the ground
    But when the song was over he stepped back and bowed
    he took another step backward and slipped into the crowd
    Right about then somebody called out my name
    so I turned myself around to see it was an old flame
    and when I turned back my dance partner was gone
    I could have kicked myself for not trying to hold on
    Darlin’ I ain’t never met nothing like you
    and when you walked away it split my heart in two
    I guess you didn’t really get the chance to see
    that you ain’t never met no one like me
    Well I looked around the bar for the longest damn time
    just trying to find that man who stopped my heart on a dime
    But right about the time I was about to just leave
    I found a note on a napkin tucked up under my sleeve
    It said “I ain’t never felt nothing like this
    before I head home I’d like to steal a big kiss.
    I’ll be waiting outside back in the parking lot
    I just had to cool off because you make me so hot”
    Well I pushed and swirled and slid my way through the crowd
    and I must have cussed twenty-some people out loud
    When I flew out the door he was just driving away
    But he slammed on the brakes when he heard me shout “Hey!”
    “Stranger I ain’t never had nothing like you
    I can’t say out loud the things I’d like to do
    But if you take me home then I will make you see…
    that you ain’t never had nothing like me”
