Mark Chesnutt - What I Heard Lyrics






She stood right there, tears in her eyes
Looked straight at me and said one word
The word goodbye fell from her lips
That's what she said, but here's what I heard

I'll be back, I'll come crawling back
I won't last long without you
I just need some time
I swear she said all that and more
It might've sounded like one word
But that ain't what I heard

I saw her turn and walk away
To leave like that sure took some nerve
There's something more to her goodbye
More than she said, here's what I heard

I'll be back, I'll be crawling back
I won't last long without you
I just need some time
I swear she said all that and more
It might've sounded like one word
But that ain't what I heard

I'll be back, I'll come crawling back
I won't last long without you
I just need some time
I swear she said all that and more
It might've sounded like one word
But that ain't what I heard

Mark Chesnutt What I Heard Comments
  1. E.... V....

    You're one of the best brother....

  2. E.... B....

    Takes one back to the 70`s

  3. J.... S....

    The production sounds like Danny Davis & The Nashville Brass circa 1972--too slick and lifeless. The musicians sound bored to depression and their performance is horribly edgeless. Chesnutt has the voice to make his version really, really, great...REALLY. But those studio musicians and the record's producer kill all signs of life. It was dead before it got to the 3rd chord, and that's the truth. Compare with the original https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiLUTWcLCgU&list=PL5N1kEuzessB_z3TzXNNwRLM7olfeA34i

  4. P.... T....

    He definitely nailed it, sounds damn good

  5. B.... B....

    Mark is one of my favorites. He does a fantastic job on this song.

  6. D.... D....

    Big fan of MC and Marshall Tucker. Lovin’ This!

  7. J.... W....

    I don’t do well with singers doing remakes... but he nailed it. Perfect country music. New country music needs to take note

  8. E.... F....

    Beautiful rearrangement of a great song.....with a little Cosby,Stills,Nash and Young.....

  9. A.... D....

    Love Chesnutt!!

  10. I.... M....

    LOVE IT.....!!

  11. P.... B....

    Good job Mark I love this version your voice is so country♥️

  12. L.... F....

    Way better than Marshall Tucker and Eric Church.

    L.... F....

    Great ,but not better

    L.... F....

    Agreed. Definitely better than Marshall Tucker.

  13. r.... b....

    The best cover of this great Marshall Tucker Song, Congrats Mark you've NAILED IT!

  14. Y.... V....

    Not a huge country fan, but I love this song. Love his voice too.
    I can't choose between Mark Chesnutt and The Marshall Band they are both great. 💞👍

    Y.... V....

    Dude if you love this,,,youre a BIG country fan

    Y.... V....

    All the fun I gotta waiting for me to at w i

    Y.... V....

    Mark chesnutt play all the fun I have waiting for me is waiting for me at home

  15. G.... A....

    Ya know, some songs are just better left alone. Everything was pretty good in this remake for the most part but one GLARING detail! When you omit THE FLUTE you degrade the song to such a point that it is nothing short of shameful. I used to like Mark Chestnut but I will pass on all of your stuff now. What a pathetic version compared to the original.....and because you couldn't find a flute player? WOW! Go for the REAL deal folks, this is like 4th rate compared to Marshall Tucker!

    G.... A....

    I hear you Greg, but I’m way too distracted by the totally awesome bass line in this song!

    G.... A....

    Maybe they could have got you to play SKIN FLUTE or maybe the MEAT WHISTLE!

    G.... A....

    structualfitter What does that mean?

    G.... A....

    Apparently Greg has not heard Doug Gray's singing recently. He should have hung it up many years ago, his voice is just shot unfortunately. Be thankful artists such as Mark are willing to pick up the torch. MTB is still touring, go find a recent video and see for yourself. It is really sad, I'm embarrassed for the rest of the band. In the meantime I'll forgive Mark for a slightly different arrangement, I'm just happy he is doing it. I can listen to Mark anytime.

    G.... A....

    Right, because all great country songs feature a flute solo, like the original of this, and... uh...
    Some of us realize that this is not supposed to be an imitation of MTB, but instead it is Chesnutt's version, which takes a little more talent and skill than pretending to be someone else.

  16. R.... T....

    Sooo glad Mark picked this ole' Marshall Tucker hit cause he really nails it and makes it his own and I love the true country he puts into it~!!

  17. k.... ....

    Such a great rendition of an awesome song. Mark Chestnutt you've done this song justice, PROPS!

  18. T.... C....

    My favorite version.

    T.... C....

    GO Mark .

  19. v.... m....

    Not bad , but can't touch the original.

    v.... m....

    And what might
    that be?

    v.... m....

    Why should it ? Done Chesnutt style.

    v.... m....

    Marshall Tucker Band did it better! But, whatever floats your boat! 😀

    v.... m....

    I like both
    😉💞

  20. T.... F....

    Love how he makes this song so perfectly country!

    T.... F....

    Tim Fountain to be fair, this song was country waaaay before Mr. Chesnutt got a hold of it. What is now "modern country" was country rock of the 70's ... Marshall Tucker Band, Pure Prairie League, Eagles, Steve Earle, The Outlaws, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Linda Ronstadt, these people would chart on the C&W charts today. They have already been there, country just came to meet them.

    Mark does a great job here.

    T.... F....

    It's his steel guitar player that does this!!

    T.... F....

    Huawei is a criminal organization. The eagles are not country

    T.... F....

    Really impressive if you ask me.. Sounds traditional country and he made it his own. Mark is a has a very very good artist..

  21. J.... G....

    Sweet Mark!!!

  22. F.... J....

    Great !!!

  23. v.... r....

    Absolutely Love This!!!!!

  24. S.... A....

    Mark Chesnutt does this song wonderfully.
