[Verse 1]
Well, I don't go to church enough
I curse out loud, I drink too much
I'm more of a sinner than a saint
Got a dusty Bible on my shelf
I just pick it up when I need help
Lord knows there's a lot I need to change

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I want to
Baby, you make me want to

[Chorus]
You tie the knot
When I'm at the end of my rope
You never stop
Believin' in me when I don't know
Who I am
Or what I'm supposed to be
I don't give you no good reason
But baby don't give up on me

[Verse 2]
I've smoked my last cigarette
At least a hundred times I bet
I guess I'll just keep quittin' 'til it sticks
But for all the things I've failed to do
I've never failed at lovin' you
We both know I can't grant your every wish

[Pre-Chorus]
But I want to
Baby, you make me want to

[Chorus]
You tie the knot
When I'm at the end of my rope
You never stop
Believin' in me when I don't know
Who I am
Or what I'm supposed to be
I don't give you no good reason
But, baby, don't give up on me

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
You tie the knot
When I'm at the end of my rope
You never stop
Believin' in me when I don't know
Who I am
Or what I'm supposed to be
I don't give you no good reason
But, baby, don't give up on me

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
