Pat Green Lucky Ones Lyrics

Unlike his fellow Lone Star troubadours Jack Ingram and Robert Earl Keen, Pat Green has a sweet, buttery finish to his tough, sinewy Texas twang. This sweetness works handily on searching romantic ballads like "One Thing" (written by Ingram), "Temporary Angel," and the lovely Radney Foster-penned title tune. But like Ingram and Keen, Green also knows how to get lowdown and rowdy, which he does in spades on a tongue-in-cheek reminiscence called "College" (which Green co-wrote with Brad Paisley) and "Sweet Revenge," an exquisitely bluesy, eye-for-an-eye anthem co-written with Ray Wylie Hubbard. --Bob Allen
