Right now I really like a song called "Life Or Love" by Alan Jackson:

"I tried to stay on the straight and narrow
But I’ve walked a crooked path
And I’ve felt worthy of forgiveness
And deserving of heaven’s wrath
Right on the money and off by a mile
Ahead of my time and way out of style
But I’m hanging tough, I ain’t had enough
I ain't giving up on life or love


Well I try to stay away from the bottle
But I’ve reached out for the glass
I try to pull back on the throttle
But I still run out of gas
I’ve been an angel, but never a saint
Hung with the devil, don’t nobody faint
But I’m hanging tough, I ain’t had enough
I ain't giving up on life or love


Yesterday’s history, today is a chance
Tomorrow’s a mystery, so I’m making plans
To keep hanging tough, I ain’t had enough
I ain't giving up on life or love"

Great song Marmaladegirl22!!!!

mine would be Rascal Flatts, 'I'm moving on"

RASCAL FLATTS - I'm Moving On Lyrics
I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived that I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on

only "home" isn't where I belong, it was school, lol

If you were asked to pick a country song that best describes your life, or what you are going threw now what song would it be?

Ealier this summer, I would have said my theme song would be George Strait's "I Hate Everything." I had started a summer job, and things were going very badly for me at the time. Gradually, things improved until my employment came to an end once my university classes started.

Can I pick another song? I wear my life by Jo Dee Messina

sorry for the caps, but I copy and pasted the lyrics.

I WEAR MY LIFE

COME CLOSE, JUST LOOK AT ME, CAN YOU SEE
THAT NEW ENGLAND BREEZE BLOWIN’ THROUGH MY HAIR
STARE INTO MY EYES, CAN’T YOU SEE THE ENDLESS SKY
PEAKIN’ THROUGH THE CRACKS OF THAT ABANDONED BARN
GOT MY FIRST KISS THERE

MY VICTORIES, MY BROKEN DREAMS, YOU DON’T HAVE TO LOOK TOO FAR
LIKE AN OLD PAIR OF SHOES, LIKE A TATTOO, SOMETIMES LIKE A SCAR

CHORUS:
I WEAR MY LIFE, RIGHT ON MY SLEEVE
WHO I AM AIN’T NO MYSTERY
WHERE I’VE BEEN HAS LEFT A MARK ON ME
NO, I’M NOT ONE TO TRY AND HIDE
OR KEEP IT ALL LOCKED UP INSIDE
I WEAR MY LIFE

I’M LIKE AN OLD SCRAPBOOK, NOT AFRAID TO LET YOU LOOK
EVERY DAY’S A BRAND NEW PAGE I CAN’T WAIT TO CUT AND PASTE
THIS PICTURE THAT I SEE, RIGHT NOW OF YOU AND ME
TWO PEOPLE SO IN LOVE EVEN TIME CAN’T MAKE IT FADE

MY SMILING FACE, GIVES ME AWAY, YEAH EVERYBODY KNOWS
WHEN YOU FEEL SOMETHING THIS REAL, BOY, IT’S BOUND TO SHOW

REPEAT CHORUS

YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH ME. I’M TRANSPARENT
I DON’T JUST LIVE IT

REPEAT CHORUS

You'll Be There by George Strait.

Hope is an anchor and love is a ship, time is the ocean and life is a trip
You don't know where you're going, ‘till you know where you're at
And if you can't read the stars, well you better have a map
A compass and a conscience, so you don’t get lost at sea
Or on some lonely island, where no one wants to be

From the beginning of creation, I think our maker had a plan
For us to leave these shores and sail beyond the sand
And let the good light guide us through the waves and the wind
To the beaches in a world where we have never been
And we'll climb up on a mountain, y'all we'll let our voices ring
Those who've never tried it, they'll be the first to sing

Whoa, my, my
I'll see you on the other side
If I make it
And it might be a long hard ride
But I’m gonna take it
Sometimes it seems that I don’t have a prayer
Let the weather take me anywhere
But I know that I wanna go
Where the streets are gold
‘Cause you'll be there
Oh, my , my


You don’t bring nothing with you here
And you can’t take nothing back
I ain’t never seen a hearse, with a luggage rack
So I've torn my knees up prayin’
Scarred my back from fallin’ down
Spent so much time flying high, till I’m face first in the ground
So if you're up there watchin’ me, would you talk to God and say,
Tell him I might need a hand to see you both someday

Whoa, my, my
So I'll see you on the other side
If I make it
And it might be a long hard ride
But I’m gonna take it
Sometimes it seems that I don’t have a prayer
Let the weather take me anywhere
But I know that I wanna go
Where the streets are gold
‘Cause you'll be there
Oh, my , my
Cause you'll be there
Oh, my ,my

I will...but by SheDaisy

I won't be bored
I won't be ignored
Hey!
I won't be your dirty secret
I won't be your cure-all pill
And I won't run to fetch the water
Just to tumble down the hill
I won't be your Friday paycheck
I won't be the prize you flaunt
And I won't be your Martha Stewart, baby
Or your all night restaurant
chorus:
But I will, I will, I will be your everything
If you make me feel like a woman should
I will, I will, I will be the whole shebang
You know I will...but
I won't be your crutch to lean on
I won't wear stiletto heels
I won't walk a mile in your shoes
Just so I know how it feels
I won't be your obligation
I won't be your Barbie doll
I won't be the portrait of perfection
To adorn your wall
(repeat chorus)
Bridge:
Hey - you know I will
All right
I wont be your lifetime girlfriend
I won't be just one of the guys
I won't be your mama's favorite
I refuse to be the last in line
(repeat chorus)
Yeah, I will, I will, I wll be your everything
I will, I will be the whole shebang
I will, I will be your everything
I will, I will, I will, I will- yeah
You know I will
You know, you know I will
You know I will
You know, you know I will - yeah

I recently started dating someone new. I play it in the background everytime he's in my car and on the phone. Kind of a subliminal thing i'm working on.

Keeper of the Stars by Tracy Byrd :)

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just can’t believe you’re in my life
Heaven’s smilin’ down on me
As I look at you tonight

I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin’
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I’ve got all I’ll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars

Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I don’t deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude

So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin’
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I’ve got all I’ll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew

If Heaven~Andy Griggs

If heaven was an Hour, it would be twilight
When the fireflies start their dancin' on the lawn
And supper's on the stove, and mama's laughin'
And everybody’s working day is done

If heaven was a town, it would be my town
Oh - on a summer day in 1985
And everything I wanted was out there waitin'
And everyone I loved was still alive

Chorus:
Don’t cry a tear for me now, baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if that’s what heaven's made of
You know I, I ain’t afraid to die

If heaven was a pie, it would be cherry
So cool and sweet, and heavy on the tongue
And just one bite would satisfy your hunger
And there’d always be enough for everyone

If heaven was a train, it sure would be a fast one
That could take this weary traveler 'round the bend
If heaven was a tear, it'd be my last one
And you’d be in my arms again

Chorus:
Don’t cry a tear for me now, baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if that’s what heaven's made of
You know I, I ain’t afraid to die

Yea, if that’s what heaven's made of
You know I, I ain’t afraid to die.

That's a tough one. A lot of country music speaks to me. I guess if I had to choose, I'd pick "Up!" by Shania Twain because I'm going through some major life changes right now and "it can only go up from here!"
I also liken my relationship with my bf to "God Blessed the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts. I know God has brought us together.

"Who I Am" by Jessica Andrews

If I live to be a hundred
And never see the seven wonders
That'll be alright
If I don't make it to the big leagues
If I never win a Grammy
I'm gonna be just fine
'Cause I know exactly who I am

I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am

So when I make a big mistake
When I fall flat on my face
I know I'll be alright
Should my tender heart be broken
I will cry those teardrops knowin'
I will be just fine
'Cause nothin' changes who I am

I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
and It's all a part of me
And that's who I am

I'm a saint and I'm a sinner
I’m a loser, I'm a winner
I'm steady and unstable
I'm young but I am able

I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am

I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
That is who I am
