Jimmy Wayne Concert at The Rock in Minnesota

Jimmy Wayne will be performing at The Rock in Maplewood, MN on March 6th at 8 pm!! I have loved Jimmy Wayne since 2003 when he released his first single "Stay Gone." Since then Jimmy Wayne has released great singles like "I Love You This Much," "You Are," "Paper Angel," "I Will," "Sara Smile" and my personal favorite "Do You Believe Me Now." I was a little shocked to find out that Jimmy Wayne was performing in such a small venue because of all the success he has had in the past years. I am excited that he is playing at The Rock though because it will feel like a personal performance like it did when I saw David Nail at The Rock. You get to be so close to the performers and they interact with the audience because the place is so small. Even if you only like one or two of Jimmy Wayne's songs I would still suggest that you go to this concert at The Rock because it isn't expensive and it is a lot of fun to see a concert at this bar! I haven't seen Jimmy Wayne in concert before so I don't know how he is as a performer but I do know that he has a great voice! If you have seen Jimmy Wayne in concert please let me know what you thought about it.

"Do You Believe Me Now"
Do you remember the day I turned to you and said
I didn't like the way he was lookin' at you?
yeah
How he made you laugh
you just couldn't get what I was sayin'
it was my imagination

(Chorus)
So do you believe me now?
I guess I really wasn't that crazy
and I knew what I was talkin' about
Everytime the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin' you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now?

I'm kickin' myself
for bein' the one foolish enough givin' him the chance to step in my shoes
ohhh
He was bidin' his time
when he saw our love was havin' a moment of weakness
he was there between us

(Chorus)
So do you believe me now?
I guess I really wasn't that crazy
and I knew what I was talkin' about
Everytime the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin' you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now?

oh yeah, I bet now you see the light
oh yeah, what's the use in bein' right...
when I'm the lonely one tonight?

(Chorus)
So do you believe me now?
I guess I really wasn't that crazy
and I knew what I was talkin' about
Everytime the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin' you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now
yeah
so do you believe me now
yeah

Everytime the sun goes down
he's the one that's holdin' you baby
yeah me I'm missin you way 'cross town
so do you believe me now?

"Beer on the Table"- Josh Thompson
Every morning I get up before that rooster crows
Heading straight to somewhere I don’t even want to go
Eggs and bacon in my belly and a Folger’s coffee buzz
Good ol’ radar detector it protects me from the fuzz
Well, I do what I gotta do to get through working that 9 to 5
It’s killing me but then again it’s keeping me alive

It puts the gas in my truck, butter on my biscuit,
couple bucks when I’m itching for a scratch-off ticket
That poker makes me broker every Saturday night
But I still got running water and they ain’t cut off the lights
Come Friday night, My friends and I start peeling off them labels
Working hard all week puts beer on the table

Eighteen bucks an hour and a million dollar tan
All them women whistle at me while I’m working for the man
Making me some cold hard cash out in that summer sun
Come Friday I’ll have money but by Monday I’ll have none
Once the bills are paid and that bass boat tank has gone from E to F
I fill that big ol’ cooler up there ain’t a whole lot left

But I got gas in my truck, butter on my biscuit,
couple bucks when I’m itching for a scratch-off ticket
That poker makes me broker every Saturday night
But I still got running water and they ain’t cut off the lights
Come Friday night, my friends and I start peeling off them labels
Working hard all week puts the beer on the table

Oh, oh, I’m a simple man, yes I am
All I need is a few good friends and a good job,
And a good dog, maybe a woman that understands

And a little gas in my truck, some butter on my biscuit,
A couple bucks when I’m itching for a scratch-off ticket
That poker makes me broker every Saturday night
But I still got running water and they ain’t cut off the lights
Come Friday night, my friends and I start peeling off them labels
Working hard all week, yeah, puts the beer on the table
Ho! Ha! Puts the beer on the table

Would y'all pass me another one of them cold cans?

"Love Like Crazy" by Lee Brice

they called them crazy when they started out
said 17 to young to know what loves about
they've been together 58 years now
thats crazy
he brought home 67 bucks a week
bought a little two bedroom house on maple street
where she blessed him with 6 more mouths to feed
thats crazy
just ask him how he did it
he'll say pull up a seat it'll only take a minute to tell you everything
(chorus)
be a best friend
tell the truth
over use i love you
go to work
do your best
dont out smart your common sense
never let your prayin knees get lazy
and love like crazy
they called him crazy when he quit his job
sellin home computers boy they'll never take off
well he sold his one man shop to microsoft
and they paid like crazy
just ask him how he made it
he'll tell you faith and sweat
and the heart of a faithful woman who never let him forget
(chorus)
be a best friend
tell the truth
over use i love you
go to work
do your best
dont out smart your common sense
never let your prayin knees get lazy
and love like crazy
always treat your woman like a lady
never get to old to call her baby
never let your prayin knees get lazy
and love like crazy
they called him crazy when they started out
they've been together 58 years now
aint that crazy
