Jo Dee Messina became a household name in country music with her breakout hit “Heads Carolina, Tails California” and hasn’t stopped putting out the music her fans crave since. In honor of the talented songstress, we have put together a list of the Top 10 Jo Dee Messina songs for you to enjoy!
10. Delicious Surprise (I Believe It)
And if I was a movie star
I’d sip honey from a pickle jar
In the back of my limousine
They’d call me an icon
And I’d be lookin’ back at you
From the cover of the people magazine
9. It’s Too Late Too Worry
Mornin’ sun found a new mustang
Abandoned in a Walmart parking lot
Mud on the seats so don’t tell me away
Didn’t stop the gossip tongues from waggin’
‘Til next day somewhere around three o’clock
No tellin’ what they’re talkin about
What’s going ’round
It’s too late to worry about that now
8. That’s The Way
Well, oh, that’s the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
That’s the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows
You live you learn
You crash and burn
It’s hit or miss
And that’s the way it is
7. Because You Love Me
And now that you’re in my life
I’m so glad I’m alive
‘Cause you showed me the way
And I know now how good it can be
Because you love me
6. Burn
I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for me burn for me
5. Stand Beside Me
I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me, not own me
And I’ll give all the love in my heart
Stand beside me
Be true, don’t tell lies to me
I’m not lookin’ for a fantasy
I want a man that who stands beside me
4. Heads Carolina, Tails California
Heads Carolina, tails California
Somewhere greener, somewhere warmer
Up in the mountains, down by the ocean
Where don’t matter long as we’re goin’
Somewhere together, I got a quarter
Heads Carolina, tails California
3. I’m Alright
I’m all, I’m all, I’m alright
It’s a beautiful day, not a cloud in sight
So I guess I’m doing alright
Oh, oh I’m alright
Got a good ole friend here with me tonight
So I guess I’m doing alright
2. My Give A Damn’s Busted
You can crawl back home
Say you were wrong,
Stand out in the yard
And cry all night long.
Go ahead and water the lawn.
My give a damn’s busted.
1. Bye Bye
Bye bye love I’ll catch you later
Got a left foot down on my accelerator and the rear view mirror torn off
I ain’t never lookin’ back and that’s a fact
I’ve tried all I can imagine
I’ve begged and pleaded in true lover’s fashion
I’ve got pride I’m takin’ it for a ride
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye
