Sunny Sweeney - If I Could Lyrics
If I could make my living going fishing
Then I would make my living with a line and pole
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes cause I ain't
Making money going fishing Like I'm paid at the factory
If I could pay all these bills with my guitar
Then I would pay these bills with some rock and roll
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes cause I ain't
Making money going fishing Like I'm paid at the factory
Well if I could (if I could)
Then I would (then I would)
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above
Then I would just get by making love to you
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes cause I ain't
Making money going fishing
Like I'm paid at the factory
(PLAY THAT GUITAR)
Well if I could (if I could)
Then I would (then I would)
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above
If I could just get by loving you dear
Then I would just get by making love to you
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes cause I ain't
Making money going fishing
Like I'm paid at the factory
(Come on y'all)
Well if I could (if I could)
Then I would (then I would)
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above
If I could just get by loving you dear
Then I would just get by making love to you
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes cause I ain't
Making going fishing
Like I'm paid at the factory
Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes cause I ain't
Making going fishin
Like I'm paid at the factory

Why is this girl almost unknown shes amazingly talented 😍
Because she markets herself based on her talent, which she has in abundance. For the music industry though, well, not enough these days.
I came late to the party but man she is Awsome
My favorite song of yours! Love when you do it super super fast!
Seeing her live is amazing...
not hating but she sounds like she has been inhaling helium yall all must have thought the same thing
same thing they said about Dolly Parton..soo....uhmm..
this song is so diffrent then the rest of her songs

<----my like just got it to 1,000 likes
One of the many favorites from her OUTSTANDING gig in Billings MT. Great talent!!
Love your music... but there's so many videos that say "the poster of this clip has not made it available in your country" .... hope you make them so I can watch them in Australia :(
VVVVVVVv
I love her old style sound with a new beat!
This is the best thing ever.
Sunny is AWESOME!!!! I'm glad she's doing it without "Nashville". Her band is friggin' RAD!!
Keep Going Sunny!!
Just what country music needs.
Smile when you say that, she`s sure got the goods,this girl.
I think this is a Tim Carroll song
On the shirt is Hank Williams Jr.
no ma'am that is the Late Great Merle Haggard
Eddie Perez is the long-haired guy playing guitar. He's a member of The Mavericks in addition to playing with a lot of other artists. :)
great CD
Merle Haggard
This is SO fun to sing!
waylon maybe?
anyone know who that is on her shirt?
I need to get this album
great singer
whos playing steel on this and also guitar. great band. is it brent and paul on the leads?
my good friend Eddie Perez on guitar !!!
She's true country.
Sunny Sweeney is adorable. I dig this song and video. Who's rocking the autoharp?
I first heard Kasey Chambers do this. Both versions are good. This one seems a little bit more rock.
I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS VIDEO AND SONG!! You are SIMPLY ADoRABLE!! Love Ya Sunny!!
what gets me the most, country, ie johnny cash, george jones etc, will always have a place in our hearts,no one can ever replace them yrs, but sunny sweeney and a few others, have kept country going,otherwise it will all die out, so as much as i love willie nelson waylon jennings etc.
we have to move with the times, shame as it is, but hey i applaud country artists like her xxxx
That's EXACTLY what my point is. That today's Country Music DOESN'T sound like Country Music at all. "Sunny Sweeney If I Could" ACTUALLY sounds Country to me. :)
I prefer 90's Country the most. :)
who is the guy on her shirt?
"if i could just get by loving you dear,"
yes thats eddie perez from the mavericks and the dwight yoakam band
FINALLY a REAL Country Music Song. I'm from Brooklyn, NY and I'm getting SICK and TIRED of ALL this NEW so-called Country Music sounding soooo much like this Pop-Rap Garbage that they BLAST in NYC ALL day long. You can HARDLY distinguish Country Music from other genres of Music ANYmore.
Another great song Sunny. Keep singing them.
shes so underrated, better than carrie, kellie and miranda in my opinion
Wow....
@rrfields65 Oh really? Thanks for pointing that out.
@carrawitt That's Mark Collie!!!
Oh what a beauty ... I meant the song as well. Why haven't we heard of her at the top, or for that matter, at all? and for no damn-bull reason we know Taylor Swift . Nashville's gone deaf and dumb.
Is that the same guitarist who played for The Mavericks, Live in Austin?
This is the Celine Dion in country music! I LOVE her music... what an incredible voice and talent... why is she not hanging out at the top of the charts?!?!
sweety girl
nice song sunny
that steel picker is tearin it up...he plays alot like ralph mooney.
great stuff
Is that Keith Gattis on guitar?
If only .... oh if only I could even fathum how she talks much less SINGS that fast lol
GREAT song :))
wow this sounds so different than "staying's worse than leaving" I think I like this better. It's real country
This girl is absolutely awesome.
this girl is so hotttttt and she can sing-awsome
Anyone that hates this song because of her voice doesn't know country music. This is the real deal right here. Rough and true.
@Markita0023 It's country music. I love it. It's what true country music is.
Finally some one thats real country her and Miranda are the best
@rammerjammer107 i agree but im kinda tied between her and chuck wicks
i love her...no homo...she is actual country. when she came to the jacksonville landing i was so happy i was jammin right along with her. she is so amazin. just the way her voice goes..omg she is absolutely amazin
i love the rough traditional way of her voice -- country is too 'smooth' today its UNNATURAL.
thats a country girl singing country music!
JUST..ENJOY..THE SONG!!! for the love of god..
OMG...talk about bringing country back LOL...Old country was way better then this 100 yrs ago lmao!!!
I love her song "from a table away" but this song sounds horrible..thts why ive nevr heard of it until today..horrible sound of her voice..goodness!!!
her voice gave me nightmares
this song is hilarious!! defenitly needs more vieuws!
Мне нравится её выговор.
this song is so cool hahaha
AWESOME!
QUITE a contrast between the first song I heard by her....From a Table Away......sorry but this song sounds like complete crap compared to that.......yikes....
shes practically yoldilin lol
I love this kind of country :)
@nashvillegirl Sunny wrote/co-wrote a few of the songs on her CD and she covers songs made famous by Iris Dement and Lacey J Dalton. I really like the song they're playing on the radio now, but I'm sad that Trashville has taken most of the Texas twang out of her music for her EP. It sounds like you are as passionate as I am about good music which must mean that you love great indy-country singer songwriters like Dale Watson, Rodney Hayden and Corey Morrow. Peace.
@nashvillegirl Dang! chill for a minute. Just tryin' to say something positive and give her props. I agree that without great songs great singers would be lost and songwriters never get enough credit. The fact is that there ain't a girl in Brooklyn that can sing like this no matter who wrote it. Sunny's CD has a real East Texas sound (like Natalie Maines and Miranda Lambert) and I think it kicks ass.
This song is on her 2006 CD "Heartbreaker's Hall of Fame". It is a super good album from the very first listen. The first time I heard this song my jaw dropped, my eyes bugged out and I got a big grin on my face. Thank God for East Texas country!
The video should just show Sunny singing with her band. Buy the CD!
she got some major brownie points for the merle shirt
thats true if this dont get you up and moving stik with fairy tales taylor swift
I really enjoy Sunny, so refreshing and country music that makes ones toes tap. Would be fun to dance too although would wear you out too!
If you dont like this,you dont really like country music.Stick with your taylor Swift.
This is awful.. Im a country guy but the girl sounds waaaayy to squeeky in this song.. her other song from a table away was great..
i love this it has a great sound and does it not just wanna make you jumpo up and start dancing lol great sound
Texas music at its best!
country music is so vibrant and real you go girl !
Good Song, but I am glad that she lost her nasaly sound for "From A Table Away"
Damn, guess I forgot what real country sounded like! Been gettin a little used to the new pop country :( Hope she can keep it up!
I wish I worked with her.
Is her daddy an auctioneer? :)
good to see some one who still sings real country
like jason aldean said,"she's country,form her cowboy boots to her down home roots"
Juicey Juice---her voice does sound different in the song.They are two types of songs.One heartfelt and the other is FUN!!!
Love that Sunny!!!!
@JuicyJuice1116 I agree...totally different sound.
Haha, I love this. It kinda sounds like she's yodeling in some part.
LOVE IT ... CONGRATS ON MAKIN THE "AMERICAN TOP 40 COUNTDOWN" !!
WOW!!!! heck if it werent for tube I probably would never hav come across alot of great music out there in the world
Is that Eddie Perez on the Tele?
He played with Dwight.
@fordf1501977 She sang in Norway ? :O
I discovered Sunny with this video. Her debt album "Heartbreaker's Hall of Fame" is a favorite from recent years. She's great as both an engaging performer and a song writer.
what a doll and a voice this girl needs a good record company she kicks ass.
I sure do like this song, and Sunny is just a cute as she sounds!
she sings really fast
