Cody Johnson - Half A Song Lyrics






The band was startin' Slow Hand
About the time you walked in
I could see it in your eyes
You were heart broke and needin' a friend
The singer started singin' as I let you have my bar stool
And before that first chorus was through

You were already smilin'
I said no use in tryin'
Open up a tab, oh girl I'm gladly buyin'
Ain't it funny thinkin' you were thinkin' you be drinkin' alone
Baby ain't it crazy what can happen in half a song

The second verse started
I asked you if you'd like to dance
When you said no I figured well there goes my chance
But the singer kept on singin' and before he hit that chorus again
I felt you grab my hand,
then we bee-lined to the floor like we'd done this before,
holdin' onto you one, two, three four.
Spinnin' and a gettin' in a rhythm, girl it didn't take long
Baby ain't it crazy what can happen in half a song

That song ended, said we've only got one more,
now we're half way through and we're still out here on the floor
Wonder what you're thinkin' 'cause I think I'd like to drive you home,
but I know that's probably never gonna happen,
I'll just settle for your number on a napkin
then again you never know what could happen in half a song,
half a song

  4. D.... P....

    I just stumbled on this guy last night after not listening to country for 10 years......I feel like I struck a "george strait" like gold mine

  5. T.... W....

    I think I'm on my 6th or 7th time hitting Repeat!! I love it!! 💓🎶

  11. K.... M....

    very nice song! I Love it!

  12. L.... W....

    Love this 🙂

  13. A.... C....

    Saw him in Greenville, South Carolina at the Blind Horse this past weekend. The whole band was cool cause you would never expect a unique group of people to clash, but i offered his lead guitarist a chew of redman gold without knowing his name.........that threw me off and i had to beg his fiddle player to get cody to sign my guitar. And in both those scenarios, i learned everyone may not act a like or go with a current flow, but everyone in that band, especially Cody, are real people chasing that dream just like everyone else. Artist like that make the most honest, genuine, true to the core country sound and music that the competition parted ways from. So if Cody Johnson is reading this, thank you for keeping country pure and alive, also thank you for signing my guitar. If the fiddle player is on here, thank you for being so cool and easy with me, and for the guitarist, thank you for rocking badass facial hair to match those guitar licks. Yall are the real deal.

  14. L.... J....

    Keep going brother, you're making us Texans proud!

  15. J.... T....

    Beautiful music. Love all your songs.God bless you🙏❤

    J.... T....

    Good morning. HAVE A BLESS DAY..🙏 Like I said before and I'm saying it again.WOW YOU ARE AWESOME, DONT GET TIRED OF HEARING YOU SING ..BEAUTIFUL VOICE.

  16. J.... H....

    I'm a big fan of new country, I don't often get into that what is and isn't country argument. But boy oh boy, Cody Johnson's is solid country gold and a breath of fresh air.

  17. M.... ....

    This is the kind of music where you just grab your woman and dance in the kitchen while you let supper burn away

  18. S.... ....

    This is really goooddddddddddd

  19. D.... H....

    Real country. Becoming a favorite of mine.

  20. s.... ....

    Stay country...this is excellent, REAL country...you might be the only artist left that does real country, love the song keep up the great work.

  21. J.... B....

    Seriously, how great is this song?!

  22. m.... k....

    Great song!

  23. Y.... K....

    I can listen to this song all day long

  24. E.... K....

    Steve, you obviously Never loved me. You've been trying to make me either do away with myself or kill me outright for 5 years. Just to keep your sorry ass out of jail. Your days of trying to manipulate me are over. I never really loved you either. You're a fake. Take your fake ass love and leave me alone.

  25. A.... M....

    Anything can happen in half a song

  26. A.... d....

    This is such a good song.

  27. M.... K....

    Cody Johnson can come to Alabama anytime. He’s the best newer country artist I’ve heard in a long time. Beats the hell out of the garbage on the radio.

  28. J.... F....

    im in 2019 listening to this

  29. S.... M....

    Real songwriting !!! Thank God someone still gets it!

  30. j.... j....

    reminds me of dan seals

  31. K.... H....

    Him, George, and Aaron Watson need to do a song together!

  32. L.... R....

    Can’t wait for him to blow up!!💙

  33. F.... 2....

  34. J.... b....

    One of my favorite song's by him...shout out from my family Cody from our hometown ..glad I was able to grow up knowing you and your family...y'all are great people can't wait to see you Friday!

  35. I.... P....

  36. B.... d....

    it is a cool song..

  37. P.... C....

    leave my music where I have it

  38. R.... S....

    Don't push it. The home territory is off limits. Fuckin with the rap and now country your only making a fool if yourself, if I know it I know.

  39. M.... S....

    He sings beautifully. And not bad to look at either

  40. J.... M....

    This song reminds me of when I go to a dance hall and I always ask in the half of the song

  41. A.... M....

    i cant stop playing this song, this is REAL country music not that crap everyone thinks is country. and honestly I don't like any country besides Cody Johnson and Jon pardi, and I have not forgotten about hank Williams and George straight! and does anyone keep replaying the part in this song when Cody sings " and the player kept on singing and before he hit that chorus againnnn"? lol I hit that key perfect, and I hate how all the ' country ' singers are singing about getting drunk and dating girls in booty shorts and boots, like really?! if you want a REAL country girl I suggest you stop looking because you don't know what country is. sorry not sorry! :D

    R.... H....
