-Honey!
I'm gonna walk Hey!
To no particular destination Yes, I want to talk When I got the inclination Yes, I like to move When I got the locomotion I'm gonna do just what it takes To keep this smile on my face I like to cruise in my car Wherever they're cruising faster I like to sail the ship As long as I can be the master I like to ride the rails On my own roller coaster I like to do just what it takes To keep this smile on my face You know what?
I was born to be this way Never save it for a rainy day I just like to make it my own way I wanna be the first to say Don't want to work too hard Wait a minute, Lord.
If it means that I ain't livin' I ain't gonna go through this life There's no room for gettin' Ain't gonna stand up here long If it just means I'm a-waiting I'm gonna do just what it takes To keep this smile on my face Get it, baby.
Whoo!
Hey, baby.
Look at me when I'm talking to you.
-What are you saying?!
- I was born to be this way Never save it for a rainy day I just like to make it my own way I wanna be the first to say Ain't gonna change my ways There ain't no good reason I ain't gonna change this mind Without any rhyme or reason Ain't gonna be one way I got to change like the seasons I wanna do just what it takes To keep this smile on my face I wanna do just what it takes To keep this smile on my My, my, my, my face Take that, devil.
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Get a close-up of this.
[ Cheers and applause ] Is this really happening?
Come on!
Here we go.
Whoo!
Everywhere I look, the sun is shining But it's always raining here inside I can see That you really had a hold on me It's a mean old love A flame that never dies Won't you tell me why-y-y-y I can't say goodby-y-y-ye?
Everywhere I go, you're in my shadow When I turn around, there's no one there It's a real bad sign And I'm walking through a bad line A fool in love with a fool who never cared You better sing it.
Won't you tell me why-y-y-y I can't say goodby-y-y-ye?
Won't you tell me why-y-y-y Ask anyone you know And they'll say love fades away This heart's cryin' Just like yesterda-a-a-a-ay It's a real bad sign And I'm walking on a real thin line I'm a fool in love with a fool who never cared Won't you tell me why-y-y-y I can't say goodby-y-y-ye?
Won't you tell me why-y-y-y I can't say goodby-y-y-ye?
[ Cheers and applause ] I could get feeling down I could cruise downtown Find a good place to cry-y Drink a bottle dry I could sing till closing time I could ease my mind And all them little honky-tonk joys But, baby, what's the point?
Ain't no thing, ain't no thing That I'm standing in this pouring rain Like I've never been here before I'm just here again Ain't no thing, ain't no thing So you're leaving me like a long freight train If I even cry at all, that would be a crying shame The sky ain't gonna fall, honey You know it ain't no thing Ah!
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sad Don't feel bad 'bout the way You had to break my heart in two Well, I got news for you Hey, it's okay, it's alright In fact, there's nothing that's quite like being... Honey, there's other fishes in the sea Ain't that right, girls?
Ain't no thing, ain't no thing Yeah, I'm standing in this pouring rain Like I've never been here before I'm just here again Ain't no thing, ain't no thing That you're leaving me like a long freight train If I even cry at all, that would be a crying shame And the sky ain't gonna fall, honey You know it ain't no thing Ain't no thing, baby Go, girls!
Whoo!
Ain't no thing, ain't no thing That I'm standing in this pouring rain Like I've never been here before I'm just here again Ain't no thing, ain't no thing That you're leaving me like a long freight train If I even cry at all, that'll be a crying shame And the sky ain't gonna fall, honey You know it ain't no thing Ain't no thing, honey, hey It ain't no thing, baby There's other fishes in the sea Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.

So I feel like I know everybody here.

And this ain't one of them.
[ Laughter ] Been married, been divorced.
[ Sighs ] [ Laughter ] And I'm better, not bitter for it.
And I've learned along the way that living well is the best revenge.
[ Crowd cheers ] That's right.
So I'd like to dedicate this song to my first ex-husband.
[ Crowd laughs, cheers ] -What are you trying to say?
- I tried so hard You know I can't do more It's the turn of the card It's the close of the door The lies you told You know they hurt so deep So I'll go ho-ho-ho-home And I'll cry myself to sleep And day after day You've been treating me bad Friends come up and they say "Why do you take all that?"
'Cause it's making me moan And it's making me weep So I'll go ho-ho-ho-home And I'll cry myself to sleep You play at love like a child plays games One day I'm in, then I'm out again You change those rules and I just can't win It's broken me now So I give in, yeah, yeah Whoo!
Oh, I've been through worse But I don't know what I gave to you Everything that I got So take this heart Or what's left to keep And I'll go ho-ho-ho-home And I'll cry myself to sleep And I'll go ho-ho-ho-home And I'll cry myself to sleep Whoo!
Cry myself to sleep Cry myself to sleep Cry, cry, cry Cry myself to sleep Cry myself to sleep Cry, cry Cry-y-y-y-y myself to sleep Cry myself Justin Weaver on guitar, y'all.

-Whoo-hoo-hoo!
[ Cheers and applause ] [ Cheers and applause continue ] So, this is where it gets real, y'all.
I am a woman of faith.
And that has been tested these past two years.
I lost my mama to suicide, and when she died, I thought I would die of a broken heart.
So instead, I went on tour.
[ Scattered cheers ] A lot of people didn't understand why.
[ Light applause ] I now understand it's because the music healed me and the fans supported me through a very difficult time in my life.
[ Cheers and applause ] So, my husband and I... [ Crowd cheers ] ...Cactus Moser started writing songs about what happens when you go through something like that, and until you've been through it, you don't know.
I shared a bus with her for 10 freaking years.
[ Laughter ] Try it some time.
[ Laughter ] And we were something, weren't we?
[ Cheers and applause ] So different.
And yet those Kentucky harmonies is what drove us, and that's what this next song is about.
[ Cheers and applause ] [ "It's All Downhill from Ashland" plays ] Ooooooooooooooooh-whoo Hey, hey, Mama, can you hear me now?
I'm far from heaven, but I'm screaming loud You had the curse from your mama's hands For me to wear around me like a family brand Ooooooh, oooooh [ Cheers and applause ] I was left here in the space between Where you couldn't love you, so how could you love me?
If you left your demons back in the holler Why the hell you dragging me into the muddy waters?
Kentucky roots burning deep in our blood And there's some things that you just can't rise above If we'd have known the beginning was the end We would've known, we would've known the truth is It was all downhill from Ashland Times were simple when we would sing It felt like prayer and now it feels like pain Forgiveness comes in heavy waves I love you, I need you, I hate you some days Kentucky roots burning deep in our blood And there's some things that you just can't rise above If we'd have known the beginning was the end We would've known, we would've known the truth is It was all downhill from Ashland Kentucky blood, harmonies The whole world heard but couldn't see The price it cost you and me For those Kentucky blood Harmonie-e-e-e-e-e-s Kentucky roots burning deep in our blood And there's some things that you just can't rise above If we'd have known the beginning was the end We would've known, we would've known the truth is It was all downhill from Ashland Oooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Kentucky blood, harmonies The whole world heard but couldn't see Harmonie-e-e-e-e-e-s Oooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh [ Cheers and applause ] -You guys know these people because they're Austin stars and they're global stars and they're all that stuff.

[ "Rock Bottom" plays ] - When you hit rock bottom You've got two ways to go Straight up And sideways I have seen my share of hard times But I'm letting you know Straight up It's my way Now, things are tough all over But I got good news When you get down to nothing You got nothing to lose I was born naked But I'm glory-bound And a dead-end street Is just a place to turn around When the sky is the limit Up on easy street Rock bottom Ain't no place to be Rock bottom Ain't no place for me, no, no Whoo, Lord have mercy.
Come on with it.
Hey!
Law of the jungle Is the law of the land Good luck Stayin' alive I keep a clinched fist under This hat in my hand 'Cause only the strong survive Things are tough all over But I got good news When you get down to nothin' You got nothin' to lose Anyway, rock bottom It's good solid ground And a dead-end street It's just a place to turn around When the sky is the limit Up on easy street Rock bottom Ain't no place to be Rock bottom Ain't no place for me, no, no [ Laughing ] Here we go.

The computer man got it, and he turned it into a whole nother thing, and it was a hit again.
And we like to call that... -The club mix!
- You can make me want you Any time you want to You're burning me alive Even when I got you Even when I got you Weaving a weak alibi 'Cause when the night falls You make me forget Your love is killing me And it ain't over yet How did you get to me?
No one else on Earth Could ever hurt me Break my heart the way you do No one else on Earth Could ever hurt me No one could love me like No one could love me like you Whoo!
[ Vocalizes ] Oh, I shivered once you broke into my soul The damage is done now I'm outta control How did you get to me?

-Come on now.
Sing it to me.
