Brown, who is often cited for having worn out his cassette tape of 'James Taylor's Greatest Hits' at least three times because he played them too often, adds "James Taylor is the single biggest influence I have, period."
And that influence has paid off for Brown who leads all contenders this year with nine personal nominations, five of which are shared with the Zac Brown Band. The southern rockers garnered an Album of the Year nod for 'You Get What You Give' (Atlantic/Southern Ground Artists) as well as nominations for Vocal Group of the Year and Song of the Year for "As She's Walking Away" featuring Alan Jackson.
Said Taylor of the collaboration, "I'm honored to have been asked to perform with the Zac Brown Band...I'm a fan and think they're one of the truest and most authentic talents out there. Can't wait to make some music together." http://www.zacbrownband.com/
Colder Weather Lyrics
She'd trade Colorado if he'd take her with him
Closes the door before the winter lets the cold in,
And wonders if her love is strong enough to make him
stay,
She's answered by the tail lights
Shining through the window pane
[Chorus:]
He said I wanna see you again
But I'm stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then
She said you're a ramblin' man
And you ain't ever gonna change
You gotta gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin'
At a truck stop diner just outside of Lincoln,
The night is black as the coffee he was drinkin',
And in the waitress' eyes he sees the same 'ol light a
shinin',
He thinks of Colorado
And the girl he left behind him
[Chorus:]
He said I wanna see you again
But I'm stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then
She said you're ramblin' man
And you ain't ever gonna change
You got a gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin' (born for leavin')
Well it's a windin road
When you're in the lost and found
You're a lover I'm a runner
And we go 'round 'n 'round
And I love you but I'll leave you
I don't want you but I need you
You know it's you who calls me back here, Baby
Oh I wanna see you again
But I'm stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then
Cause I'm a ramblin' man
I ain't ever gonna change
I gotta gypsy soul to blame
And I was born for leavin' (born for leavin')
When I close my eyes I see you
No matter where I am
I can smell your perfume through these whispering pines
I'm with your ghost again
It's a shame about the weather
But I know soon we'll be together
And I can't wait till thenI can't wait till then
Sweet Baby James lyrics
There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A song that they sing of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
But singing works just fine for me
Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rock-a-bye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rock-a-bye sweet baby James
