| Keith Urban – You're Not My God Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
This song is really reflecting Keith's personal life. When he first moved from Australia to Nashville, he was an outcast. Nashville liked their country music good, old and original, so when they heard Keith's Rock and Roll tainted music, they rejected it. Because of this, Keith had very little money for the first 6 years he was in America. He even had to mow lawns as a side job. So when it says; A little sure felt good, But a lot was not enough, he is talking about when he finally made an impression on Nashville and started making some decent money. In the second verse, he is going back to his years of failure. Since his family was thousands of miles away in Australia and he had no friends in Nashville, he turned to coke and alcohol to get through his hard times. When it says; Little white lies on a mirror Cut neatly in a roll Medicine that kept me from lookin' in my soul I thought you were the answer To all of my despair And you almost had me six feet down But I'm still breathin' air He is talking about how his addiction got serious and he almost died, but he got help from rehab. So the whole point of the song is that money and drugs are not his God, not who he is going to turn to, because he tried once, and it almost killed him. But it's all the same behind each game I see your evil grin, means that his addictions may have at first seemed to help but in the end its all bad. I hope this helps! |

| Blake Shelton – Ol' Red Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
Yes he is talking about a real dog. In short, this is what the song means: He caught his wife cheating on him, so he killed the guy she was having an affair with. He got thrown in jail for 99 years. He got a grand plan to escape, but first he needed to become the guardian of the prisons' tracking dog, a Bloodhound named Ol' Red. He finally did 2 years later. Then he asked his cousin to bring down a female Blue Tick Hound. They penned her up, and when the guy took Red for a run every night, he brought him to the Tick hound. The two dogs fell in love, and so Red "got used to seeing his lady every night." So he kept Red away from the Tick Hound for a few days, then made his run. When the prison guards sent Ol' Red out to find the runaway, he went to see his girl instead because he hadn't seen her in a few days. Thus the guy got away, when no one else had ever gotten past Red. In the end where is says 'Now there's red-haired blue ticks all in the south, love got me in here, and love got me out' he means that Red and the Tick hound had puppies, and since his love for his wife got him thrown in jail, and the dogs' love got him out- so yeah. There you have it. |

| Carrie Underwood – Two Black Cadillacs Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
Basically this song is about revenge. The verse, "Two months ago his wife called the number on his phone" is where his wife first finds out he was cheating on her because she saw a strange number on his phone, and called it to find out who it was. Now the girl he was having an affair with had no idea he was married, so when she found out, both she and his wife conspired to get revenge by killing him. The verse, "But the women in the two black veils, they didn't bother to cry. Bye bye, bye bye. Yeah, they took turns layin' a rose down. Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground. He's not the only one who had a secret to hide" means that they pretended to be sad by giving him roses, but really they were not, which is why they didn't cry. |
