Tentative Jr mix

Good Ole Southern Boy
I have been working on this for a while compiling songs for it a while and decide to post the tentative list of songs

Any suggestions would be great to make it better. 

Tentative Title : Living In The Fast Forward

Have a Nice Day – Bon Jovi

Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto,
That gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, I show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have A Nice Day.
Have A Nice Day

Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace – Big and Rich

I was raised by the good book
learned to work hard every day,
taught that if you can't say something good
there's nothing good to say.

I caught on pretty early
it's no use to work no harder than you play
so I guess that's how I ended up this way

^This whole song could be about Dale Jr or his Dad Dale Sr.

It’s My Life -  Bon Jovi

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

Respect – Aretha Franklin

R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Find out what it means to me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T

^ What the fans want from the press to have for Dale Jr

I'll Stand By You- Carrie Underwood or Pretenders Version

When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
Cause even if you're wrong

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you

^ The fans on his Journey to HMS

 

Southern Boy -The Charlie Daniels Band

I'm a southern boy
Southern born and bred
I've got Sweet Home Alabama buzzing all around in my head
I'm right at home in Georgia or down in Caroline
Yeah I'd be happy anywhere below that Mason-Dixon line

I'm a southern boy
I say my sirs and m'ams
I'm kinda rough around the edges but I'm mighty proud of who I am
Roll on Mississippi rock on Tennessee
If it was good enough for Elvis you know it's good enough for me

I said, if it was good enough for Elvis you know it's good enough for me
Well if the King was crazy 'bout it then you know it's good enough for me

^ What Dale Jr is in his heart and soul

"I Don't Want To Be"- Gavin DeGraw

I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me

^Jr doesn’t want to be anything other than himself and we wouldn’t have it any other way

My Hero – Foo Fighters

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
Hes ordinary

^ Enough said the title says it all about Jr

Piece Of Work – Jimmy Buffett

I'm a piece of work, I'm iron and lace
I'm shy, I'm right up in your face

^ This song has always been about either Dale Jr or Tony Stewart to me

Living In Fast Forward - Kenny Chesney


I’ve been livin' in fast forward
Hillbilly rockstar out of control
I’ve been livin' in fast forward
Now I need to rewind real slow

^ The tentative Title track for the mix

Life is A Highway – Rascal Flatts

Life's like a road that you travel on

When there's one day here and the next day gone

Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand

Sometimes you turn your back to the wind

Real Good Man – Tim McGraw

I may drink too much and play too loud

Hang out with a rough and rowdy crowd

That don't mean I don't respect

My Mama or my Uncle Sam

Yes sir, yes ma'am

I may be a real bad boy

But baby I'm a real good man

 

Cowboy in Me – Tim McGraw

I dont know why I act the way I do

Like I aint got a single thing to lose

Sometimes Im my own worst enemy

I guess thats just the cowboy in me

 

I got a life that most would love to have

But sometimes I still wake up fightin mad

At where this road Im heading down might lead

I guess thats just the cowboy in me 

^ Reason incar radio chatter from 2005

Tony Jr: … I'm not gonna send our cowboy back out there to get hurt. We need him healthy for the rest of these rodeos..."

Thank You

I think Gavin DeGraw is absolutely perfect. :D

When I was reading the lyrics and thought it worked for him. Than they used it on Shifting Gears and it confirmed my feelings for the song and its meaning for Jr.
