Some Things I Know is the second album by the American country music artist Lee Ann Womack. It was released on September 22, 1998, and rose to the number 20 position on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. The album's first two singles, "A Little Past Little Rock" and "I'll Think of a Reason Later," both peaked at number 2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart. The second two singles also charted: "(Now You See Me) Now You Don't" reached number 12, and "Don't Tell Me," hit number 56.
Womack told Billboard, "I didn't venture out too much or change anything, really, but went with the same process as the first: an extensive song search, plus writing with some other writers at Tree."[1]
Editors at Billboard gave the album a positive review and wrote, "Lee Ann Womack's sophomore album is a solid collection of bedrock country songs that tap elemental emotions. The current single, 'A Little Past Little Rock,' is a blue-chip country weeper. The real gem here, though, is Bobby Braddock's composition 'I'd Rather Have What We Had.' The writer of such country classics as George Jones' 'He Stopped Loving Her Today,' Braddock has penned a cheating song for the ages with 'I'd Rather Have What We Had.' And Womack brings home the groceries with her emotional delivery."[2]Allmusic's Brian Wahlert was less favorable, saying that "It seems that producer Mark Wright has made an effort to soften Womack's sound to make it more palatable to country radio, but in the process he has removed the soul of her music."[5]
