Crazy Ain't Original Lyrics

Crazy Ain't Original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more

Checking in and out and in and out of rehab
It ain't quite the shame it used to be
Well you're just a bigger star 'cause one bad
Mug shot makes you much more interesting

Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more

Well those neighbors we all tried to stay away from
Twelve kids were not enough, they had thirteen
And what everybody used to call a freak show
Well now we call reality TV

Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more

Yea all these bankers down on Wall street riding Harleys
Weekend warriors breaking all the rules
All those grandmothers with their cosmetic surgeons
Do their best to look like they're still in high-school

Crazy ain't original these days
The world was going half-crazy anyway
Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more

Anything you can think of, it's all been done before
Crazy ain't original no more

Crazy Ain't Original

Crow wrote this song with Al Anderson and Leslie Satcher after being inspired by Nashville legend Merle Haggard following the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony where he was honored in 2010. "After playing the Kennedy Center Honors, I came home and was thinking about what it must be like to be a songwriter from that generation," she told Billboard magazine, "and writing about what's happening around you. That was the inspiration for that."

We Ought to Be Drinkin' Lyrics

We Ought to Be Drinkin'

Crow considers this song about boozy nights at home to be a sister song to her breakthrough hit, "All I Wanna Do." "My first big song was about sitting in a bar, drinking, and it had pedal steel in it from the very beginning to the very end," she said. "So 'We Ought to Be Drinkin' is kind of the laid-back post-cursor to that song. If that's a word."

The acoustic guitar melody that starts the song is an intentional nod to Bobbie Gentry's 1967 "Ode To Billie Joe."

Crow did her own whistling on the song.

The song finds Crow singing about getting "a little rowdy," "s---faced" and "(roll[ing) a big fat blunt."

"It's like 'If It Makes You Happy,"' she told The Daily Telegraph, before quoting the 1996 single's lines with a laugh, "'I still get stoned … I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home' … I'm still the same person!"

Stay At Home Mother Lyrics

Riding in the backseat, sipping on a Pepsi
Looking out the window, driving to the bus stop together
I tell her only three sleeps and I'll be right back
And then we're gonna have a good time when I come together

And I call her every single night
I'll miss her every day
And if she kissed me and waved goodbye
I could hear her say

Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home

I've been working late nights making up for the times
That I wasn't in the crowd cheering out loud at our school plays
Tickets to a circus, maybe a new bike
I just want her to know that I love her more than working all day

But the price will never measure up
To what's inside a box
While I run all around the world
She tells me to stop

And stay at home, mother
Stay at home
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home

We could play house and pretend
That tomorrow you won't be gone
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home

Wishing things were different
Doesn't change one memory
My little girl grew up
While I was too busy to see
Now she's become the one thing
That I could never be

Stay at home, mother
Stay at home
Stay at home, mother
Stay at home

She could have a house and a couple of kids
And never have to be involved
As a Stay At Home Mother
Stay at home mother
Stay at home

Stay At Home Mother Song Chart

This emotional, circle-of-life story finds Crow describing the guilt a mother feels balancing work and family. "Last year my then six-year-old happened to wake as I was leaving the house at 5.30 am and he just dropped to his knees and started crying, 'You're not leaving,'" she told The Daily Telegraph. "It's not normal for a child to have his mom leave and I made a promise to him in that moment: 'I will figure out a way to bring you guys with me.'"

"It's hard being a single mom," Crow added. "It's the best and hardest job in the world. I'm not a mom who phones it in or hands over to the nanny. I make myself emotionally available to my children 24 hours a day."
