Us Minnesotans have been very lucky this fall/winter with nice weather! Our luck ran out last week when the cold weather finally found us. I don't mean to complain because I am born and raised Minnesotan and love the snow. But, I can never get use to the -20ish wind chills and having to freeze in my car for 10 mins until the heat kicks in! Luckily there has been many great country songs recently released or about to be released that help keep my mind off the bitter cold. Some of the newer country songs I have fallen in love with are: "Till Summer Comes Around"-Keith Urban, "Keep You"-Sugarland, "The Truth"-Jason Aldean, "Keep on Loving You"-Steel Magnolia, "Consider Me Gone"-Reba McEntire, "Need You Now"-Lady Antebellum, "Red Light"-David Nail and "Temporary Home"-Carrie Underwood. If you live in a cold state like I do I would suggest turning on any of these songs and sing along with them as loud as you can and I promise your mind will not be on how cold you are! If you know of any newer country songs I did not mention please let me know because I have a feeling it is going to be a long winter!
"Keep on Loving You"-Steel Manolia
Maybe life has got you run down
I think it's time girl that we slow down
So take a look it's almost sundown
{Chorus}
So why don't you lay right here
Let me just ease your mind
I'm givin' you all my time
And I'm gonna keep on, keep on, lovin' you
Strong and slow
The way that you want me to
Baby my whole life through
I'm gonna keep on, keep on, lovin' you
When that morning sun is dawning
Baby, both of us should call in
We got too much love to fall in
{Chorus}
So why don't you lay right here
Let me just ease your mind
I'm givin' you all my time
And I'm gonna keep on, keep on, lovin' you
Strong and slow
The way that you want me to
Baby my whole life through
I'm gonna keep on, keep on, lovin' you
So why don't you lay right here
Let me just ease your mind
I'm givin' you all my time
And I'm gonna keep on, keep on
Strong and slow
The way that you want me to
Baby my whole life through
I'm gonna keep on, keep on, lovin' you
Strong and slow
The way that you want me to
Baby my whole life through
I'm gonna keep on, keep on, keep on, lovin' you
I'm gonna keep on, keep on, lovin' you
"Temporary Home"-Carrie Underwood
Little boy, six years old
A little too used to being alone
Another new mom and dad, another school
Another house that’ll never be home
When people ask him how he likes this place
He looks up and says with a smile upon his face
This is my temporary home
It’s not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I’m passing through
This is just a stop on the way to where I’m going
I’m not afraid because I know
This is my temporary home
A young mom on her own
She needs a little help, got no where to go
She’s looking for a job, looking for a way out
‘Cause a half-way house will never be a home
At night she whispers to her baby girl
Someday we’ll find our place here in this world
This is our temporary home
It’s not where we belong
Windows and rooms that we’re passing through
This is just a stop on the way to where we’re going
I’m not afraid because I know
This is our temporary home
Old man, hospital bed
The room is filled with people he loves
And he whispers, “don’t cry for me,
I’ll see you all someday”
He looks up and says,
“I can see God’s face”
This is my temporary home
It’s not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I’m passing through
This was just a stop on the way to where I’m going
I’m not afraid because I know
This was my temporary home
