~~Drive (For Daddy Gene)
This song is rather annoying and slow in the verses but more lively in the chorus. Alan explains his experiences when his ''daddy'' let him drive.

~~Gone Country~~ This song is fairly upbeat, and its about Alan's girlfriend and about the story of how she 'went country' and went back to her roots. Alan also says in the song thats its his last chance which could indicate many reasons for that line... he wants to tell her he loves her?
~~Drive (For Daddy Gene) This song is rather annoying and slow in the verses but more lively in the chorus. Alan explains his experiences when his ''daddy'' let him drive. He describes the car in the song and what he can see when hes driving. ''It was just an old hand-me-down Ford, with a three speed on the column, and a dent in the door'' describes the car and what he sees is explained briefly when he says '' A young boy, two hands on the wheel.''
~~Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)~~ This is a rather slow and meaningful song which was written after the September 11 attacks. He also expresses his feelings about the events. ''Where were you when the world stopped turning, that septmember day'' He also says ''did you feel guilty cos you survived?'' and tries to express that you should appreciate life.
~~www.memory~~ This is about his girlfriend / wife has left him and he will be waiting for them to return to him. ''I'll be waiting for you patiently, if you feel the need just click on me at www.memory'' He is also curious in the song as to why she left.
~~It's 5 O'clock Somewhere~~ This is quite frankly a stupid song, its quite upbeat but this song is really pointless. It explains how it has to be 5 o'clock somewhere in the world ''It's only half past twelve, but i don't care, its 5 o'clock somewhere. Then he later invites his mate Jimmy Buffet into the song to ask him what he thinks but he simply sings the chorus *yawn* then they both come to the conclusion that its five o'clock in Margaretaville.
~~Chattahoochee~~ This is a high tempo and enjoyable song, no idea whats its about though! It consists of lots of weird words that don't appear in the dictionary like 'hoochie-coochie' It's basically a redneck song - long story cut short.
~~Shes Got The Rhythm (and i got the blues)~~ This songs is more rhythm and blues style (as the name suggests) It's about missing out on a women that has the rhythm and he has the blues, a mix that apparently doesn't go together as in this track.
~~Midnight In Montgomery~~ This song is like where were you when the world stopped turning. It's slow and gentle and easy-listening. This is about one of Alans friends who lived in Montgomery ''Midnight in montgomery, hes always singing there''
~~Little Man~~ This is about a little man who started a trade industry in a town and big industrys came along and put him out of business and Alan explains how the industrys don't realise what they have done to him.
~~Pop A Top~~ This is a reasonably lively song, it's about drinking. I don't really like this song because the lines and tune are a teensy bit too cheesy. It also has rather annoying noises of a beer bottle opening. Frankly an awful song, end of.
~~Don't Rock The Jukebox~~ This is an Elvis sort of style. Hes also getting over a girl ''Got a heart-broken hillbilly'' Apart from that this is a random song with 'formula country music'
~~Little Bitty~~ This song explains how ''it's alright to be a little bitty'' The tempo ranges from slower to faster between the verses and choruses. This is an enjoyable song if you can take a bit of cheesiness and weird lines.
~~Here In The Real World~~ This is about being realistic and about how he's got to face up to the fact that hes not going to get the girl hes after. Fairly slow song. Also fairly boring.
~~Livin' On Love~~ This song soungs remarkably similar to all the other songs music-wise. Its about people whos lives are revolving around love. '' Living on love, living on time, without somebody nothing ain't worth a dime''
~~Who's Cheating Who~~ This is a strange song with annoying notes being played on the guitar. It's another song thats just filled with random lyrics and it doesn't evolve around a theme. Also quite a horrible song to listen to as Alan's voice goes off key a few times... ouch!
~~Recommended?~~ No, quite an annoying mix of songs, if you like redneck type of music then feel free to get it! Although it is worth a shot if you want to be different.
