Lyrics
Maybe someday I'll be strong
Maybe it won't be long
I'll be the one who's tough
You'll be the one who's got it rough
It won't be long and
Maybe I'll be real strong
Maybe I'll do things right
Maybe I'll start tonight
You'll learn to cry like me
Baby let's just wait and see
Maybe I'll start tonight
And do things right
You'll control me
Oh so boldly
Rule me till I'm free
Till the pain that shakes me
Finally makes me
Get up off of my knees
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Maybe I'll be fast as you
Maybe I'll break hearts too
But I think that you'll slow down
When your turn to hurt comes around
Maybe I'll break hearts
And be as fast as you
Ahh
You'll control me
Oh so boldly
Rule me till I'm free
Till the pain that shakes me
Finally makes me
Get up off of my knees
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Maybe I'll be fast as you
Maybe I'll break hearts too
But I think that you'll slow down
When your turn to hurt comes around
Maybe I'll break hearts
And be as fast as you
Maybe I'll break hearts
And be as fast as you
Ahh suckie
Maybe someday I'll be strong
Maybe it won't be long
I'll be the one that's tough
You'll be the one who's got it rough
You're gonna learn to cry like me
Baby let's just wait and see
Yeah well maybe I'll be fast as you
Maybe I'll break hearts too

I’ve always dug Dwight’s sound. His voice is unmistakably unique. This is country music at its finest imo.

[@Frenchy9026]

Dwight kicks ass. We all need him back.❤

[@Chazzy23]

Rockabilly at it's finest ladies and gents! Where have the 90's country music gone? Here on KZbin, sure ain't on the radio anymore!

[@enigmaticnomadics]

Ha! What a character. God bless Dwight Yokam.

[@theclaybor4352]

Dancing while playing a guitar is an incredibly hard thing to do. Rhythm, lead, or shredding, it don't matter, it's hard as hell, and Dwight kills it.

Any country music fan will instantly recognize this song just from that opening riff. I love how that same riff transitions back and forth from rhythm to lead. As if this song wasn't already instantly recognizable, there's an organ in the chorus! An organ in country music! Brilliant!

You, Mr. Yoakum are the reason that the Kansas state issued personalized license plate on my 1997 Mercury Cougar XR-7 said FASTASU! I still have both license plates; my husband has them hanging up in our garage. Fast As You is one of my very favorite songs and Mercury's are my favorites cars. Especially the Mercury's from 1949, 1950, 1951, the 1992 Cougar LS (which I still have, we're giving it to our granddaughter when she turns 16 - she's only 8 years old now) and the XR-7, the 1997 Cougar XR-7 but my all time favorite Mercury Cougar is the 1967 Eliminator. We've been looking for one, my husband is a automotive guy. Once we find that model, FASTASU will be the license plate on it! June 24, 2000 at Country Stampede, Tuttle Creek, Manhattan, KS, was one Hell of a concert!!! Thank you for that!!! ~APRIL LIPKE
