Cut Me Some Slack Lyrics

Girl, I gotta have you, gotta get you where I want you
Know exactly what you're doin', don't you?
Treat me like you like me, like you don't like me back

I wish you'd give me the green light, give me just one night,
Girl, if you don't like how I roll
You can say, no thanks, don't ever call me
Forget you ever saw me, forget my name
Girl, you might just like some country road moonlight
Dancing in the lights of my headache rack,
Think about that, yeah think about that
Is there any chance
You could cut me some slack

I know I got a wild side, wilder than a country mile ride
I got a name around this town
And girl, I don't really blame you for the things you might be thinkin'
They're probably true but that ain't me now

Give me the green light, give me just one night,
Girl, if you don't like how I roll
You can say, no thanks, don't ever call me
Forget you ever saw me, forget my name
Girl, you might just like some country road moonlight
Dancing in the lights of my headache rack,
Think about that, think about that
Is there any chance
You could cut me some slack

Take me by the hand, believe me when I tell you
That I never ever felt like this, girl
And that's the truth

Give me the green light, give me just one night,
Girl, if you don't like how I roll
You can say, no thanks, don't ever call me
Forget you ever saw me, forget my name
Girl, you might just like some country road moonlight
Dancing in the lights of my headache rack,
Think about that, yeah think about that
Is there any chance
That you could cut me some slack

Oh oh oh, yeah
Cut me some slack
Oh oh oh, yeah

The Missouri-born Chris Janson has electrified Nashville's country music scene. In fact, it only took two days at a local Nashville bar to incite a wave of interest from country music's biggest record labels. It could be his intense and vocally stunning performances, his remarkable ability to play the harmonica, or the depth of his songs, but there is something remarkable about this 21 year-old phenomenon. Chris' budding music career has even taken him to the big screen, when legendary film director Johnathan Demme (Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia, Stop Making Sense) invited him to participate in "Heart of Gold" a documentary capturing Neil Young's 2-night performance at the Historic Ryman Auditorium. Asked to describe his sound, Chris replies that it combines "elements of rock & roll, folk, blues, roots music, and vintage country." Nashville's critics been buzzing with excitement about this emerging star, and have even likened him to a combination of Mick Jagger and Hank Williams Sr. Chris readily acknowledges his influences, but he has a confidence in his identity that transcends his age. "I want to sound like Chris Janson," he says, "It's just what you see on stage, that's what you'll get on my record. I'm not afraid to push the limits. I don't have a set list at my shows, I just play songs. It's all about soul and feel". And as all great country music stars and rock & roll legends are marked by their authenticity and originality, Chris Janson is on that same path toward greatness. Read more on Last.fm.
