Brooks & Dunn Songs
Proud of the House We Built
2007, Cowboy Town
A great anniversary song!
Lot of things will come and go
But love never will
Oh, I’m proud
I’m proud of the house we built
Play Something Country
2005, Hillbilly Deluxe
If you looking to have a party atmosphere, this is the perfect song to get things started and fill the dance floor.
Something thumping from the city
Said “I, I shaved my legs, I paid my money”
Ha oh ho, play something country”
Believe
2003, Red Dirt Road
If you want to remember a loved one at your wedding, “Believe” is a great song for Brooks & Dunn fans.
In the words written in red
They tell me that there’s more to life
Than just what I can see, I believe
Ain’t Nothing ‘Bout You
2001, Steers & Stripes
The song talks about how a woman really turns on her man and she is all that he needs.
The way you look, the way you laugh
The way you love with all you have
There ain’t nothing ’bout you that don’t do something for me
You’re My Angel
1998, If You See Her
Not one of their most well-known songs but the best choice for a first dance song in their discography. “You’re My Angel” would be a perfect bride entrance song too.
You’re my angel, you see me through
Believe in me, I’ll believe in you
Oh fill my heart from your loving well
You’re my angel
Husbands and Wives
1998, If You See Her
While they have had many hits, our favorite Brooks & Dunn song is Husbands & Wives – the perfect mid-tempo waltz song. It was originally released by country legend Roger Miller in 1966. Even though the song talks about couples breaking up, the song still can commemorate husbands and wives in attendance.
It’s my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives
My Maria
1996, Borderline
One of their biggest hits that everyone in attendance will be toe-tapping to. Even though the song was first released as a rock song in 1973, Brooks & Dunn put their own Country twist to it and made it into a monster hit.
She is the sunlight
When skies are gray
She treats me so right lady
Take me away
Rock My World (Little Country Girl)
1993, Hard Workin’ Man
Another one of those songs that will get the women in attendance on the dance floor. It could also be a great bouquet toss song too.
She plays with my heart and messes with my mind
Acts like Madonna but she listens to Merle
Rock my world little country girl
Boot Scootin’ Boogie
1992, Brand New Man
Released on their first album “Boot Scootin’ Boogie became a mega line dance song hit and still remains so today. If you are looking to fill the dance floor with all ages, this song will do so.
I go flyin’ down that highway to that hide a way
Stuck out in the woods to do the boot scootin’ boogie
Neon Moon
1991, Brand New Man
Their debut album adds another song to our list. If you are looking to slow things down with a country two-step, “Neon Moon” should be at the top of the list that everyone will recognize and dance to.
There’s always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Brand New Man
1991, Brand New Man
An up-tempo song but makes for the perfect Country love song. If you are looking for a song about how a woman is a perfect match for the groom, this is it.
By the fire in your touch and the flame in your eyes
I’m born to love again
I’m a brand new man
