Randy Rogers & Wade Bowen - Standards lyrics

Record man came and sat me down He said I've got some songs for you There's one about a dirt road I really think you oughta do So I gave it a listen and it wasn't all that bad But it ain't me so I shook my head And that's all there is to that I don't have hits, I've got standards Tell me how can I sell out if I barely sell at all? You won't see my name on the Billboard But Every night I pack the the dance floor There's your answer, I don't have hits I've got standards. Well he just smiled, he rolled his eyes He said how can I make you see? We just need one big hit and the rest will be history If we could find a way compromise You can be the next big star I said, Man you might be right But I don't care if you are I don't have hits, I've got standards. Tell me how can I sell out? If I barely sell at all You won't see my name on the Billboard Every night I pack the dance floor There's your answer I don't have hits, I've got standards Well, don't get me wrong, I wanna hear my songs on Country radio But it's gotta feel right, standing here singing them at the show I don't have hits, I've got standards. Tell me how can I sell out If I barely sell at all You won't see my name on the Billboard Every night I pack the dance floor There's your answer I don't have hits, I've got standards Yeah, well, there's your answer I don't have hits, I've got standards
