Done Lyrics

Done
The first time I saw you, done
Like the first dance was through, I was done

That one kiss, I knew
There was nothing I wouldn't do
Just to give you

That house on a hill with a four-plank around it
Every last breath till the last star is counted
Just say the word girl, paint me, you're perfect
I won't quit till the good Lord says my work is done
Like a faded out song on the radio, done
Like the cowboy gets the girl when the curtains roll
I'll give you a lifetime of days in the sun
Whatever you need and you want, I won't stop till it's done

Done
All the hell I was raising, done
All the careless heartbreaking, done
For the chance that you'll taken
I spend my nights praying
And all my days chasing

That house on a hill with a four-plank around it
Every last breath till the last star is counted
Just say the word girl, paint me, you're perfect
I won't quit till the good Lord says my work is done
Like a faded out song on the radio, done
Like the cowboy gets the girl when the curtains roll
I'll give you a lifetime of days in the sun
Whatever you need and you want, I won't stop till it's done

You know I won't stop till it's done
You need a man you can lean on, done
You need some faith you can hang your dreams on
Check 'em off one by one

In that house on a hill with a four-plank around it
Every last breath till the last star is counted
Just say the word girl, paint me, you're perfect
I won't quit till the good Lord says my work is done
Like a faded out song on the radio, done
Like the cowboy gets the girl when the curtains roll
I'll give you a lifetime of days in the sun
Whatever you need and you want, I won't stop till it's done

Baby, I won't stop till it's done
Oh, you know I ain't done
First time I saw you, done

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.
