Last night I wrote a verse to a song
But I woke up this morning it was gone
When I start to think about it you and that verse are the same
You're both gone and damn it's a shame
Yeah you're both gone and damn its a shame

Today there was a melody in my head
turns out it was your favorite song by the Dead
When I start to think about it you and that melody are the same
You're both taken and damn it's a shame
Yeah you're both taken and damn it's a shame

Now you're out partyin' with strangers
Drinkin' clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should've known that I could never change ya
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah you speak your mind and you follow your heart

I wrote a chorus to some words you said
But I still heard your voice so I let it go instead
When I start to think about it you and that chorus are the same
I gave you both up and that's a shame
I let you both go and that's a shame

Now you're out partyin' with strangers
Drinkin' clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should've known that I could never change ya
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah you speak your mind and you follow your heart

Tonight I saw you out in a crowd
Under someone else's arm you looked so proud
I didn't know the folks you were around
I decided not to wave I just sat back down
I didn't even wave I just sat back down, you turned around
Yeah you turned around, yeah you turned around

Now you're out partyin' with strangers
Drinkin' clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should've known that I could never change ya
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah now you're out partyin' with strangers
Drinkin' clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should've known that I could never change ya
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah you speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah you speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah you follow your heart

I been running in the fast lane
I ain't worried bout slowing down
We ain't gotta play the put it on
Cause everybody knows that game

And we could be the King and Queen

Cause I ain't having it, No I ain't having it
Play out any other way

(musical break)

It'd be easy just to walk away but I won't do that to you babe
No I aint having it, No I ain't having it
I promise you that I'll find a way to keep that smile up on your face
Cause I ain't having it, No I ain't having it

Put it down to the way that your hair falls
Put it down to the things that I can't explain
Put it down to the sound of my name when you call
Put it down put it down to fate

Chorus - When the smoke clears up and the dust settles down
When the smoke clears up and the dust settles down

When the smoke clears up and the dust settles down

I don't only want you on your good days
I don't only want you when it's safe
Yeah baby I want you in all your glory and your pain
Cause true lovers know it's better to stay

Chorus - When the smoke clears up and the dust settles down
When the smoke clears up and the dust settles down
I'll be right here I'll still be around
When the smoke clears up and the dust settles down

(musical break)

Put it down to the way that your hair falls
Put it down to the things that I can't explain

I took a journey through the wild wild West
Tumbleweeds and the desert lands
I saw an Indian kickin' rocks wearing a cowboy hat
I gambled all that money away in Sin City on a beautiful day
I walked a hundred thousand miles and got nowhere, then I realized

Baby I got everything I need right here in my arms tonight
Baby I got everything I need right here in my arms tonight

And I don't wanna let you go
No I don't wanna let you go

Day trippin' in a red sunrise
Snake boots and a bolo tie
I had a vision come to me at Joshua Tree
I bought a gun on Election Day load it up keep the devil away
A knife in my coat looking over my shoulder, then I realized

Baby I got everything I need right here in my arms tonight
Baby I got everything I need right here in my arms tonight

And I don't wanna let you go
No I don't wanna let you go

California finally met me
The son of Alabama and Tennessee
I saw a movie star smoking a cigarette
In an alley way talking to a silhouette
I heard a wise man with nothing to lose waving his finger calling it truth
He said don't go crying over money cause money never cried over you

Baby I got everything I need right here in my arms tonight
Baby I got everything I need right here in my arms tonight

And I don't wanna let you go
No I don't wanna let you go
No I don't wanna let you go, I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna let you go

I've always had trouble with taking things way too far
If I'm out there goin' you can bet I'm goin' hard
I push and push and then I push some more
Yeah I always had trouble with taking things way too far

And I ain't good at quitting or dealing with a broken heart
Tears in my woman's eyes tear me apart
Sometimes I wonder why I even start
Cause I ain't good at quitting or dealing with a broken heart

But have mercy on a poor boy I'm doing the best I can
I ain't never claimed to be more than I am
If you could see my good intentions I think you'd understand
I'm just a poor boy out here doing the best I can

I ain't scared of the work I'm scared when the work ain't there
When the well runs dry and there ain't much left to spare
I just grit my teeth and pull out my hair
I ain't scared of the work I'm scared when the work ain't there

So have mercy on a poor boy I'm doing the best I can
I ain't never claimed to be more than I am
If you could see my good intentions I think you'd understand
I'm just a poor boy out here doing the best I can

And I cut my teeth in a traveling band
I lay it on the line, I go all in
It's just the way I am, it's the way I am

So have mercy on a poor boy I'm doing the best I can
I ain't never claimed to be more than I am
If you could see my good intentions I think you'd understand
I'm just a poor boy out here doing the best I can
I'm just a poor boy out here doing the best I can

Coming down from New York City through those Carolina trees
Hey Georgia did you miss me, I'm faster than the breeze
I been running down these back roads, like a traveling man will do
I keep on punching on this time clock
I work on a dream and I pay my dues

There's money left in Memphis if a man can sing the blues
I caught some hell in Birmingham when a woman made me choose
Between the leavin' and the stayin', I did what a traveling man will do
I keep on punching on this time clock
I work on a dream and I pay my dues

I got to keep on rollin' up and down these interstates
I got to keep on goin' till I hear my name at Heaven's gates
It's all bright lights and gasoline, truck stops and coffee beans
I bleed for what I do and that's the truth
I'll run my race until my work is through
Like a traveling man will do

I swam in the Mississippi, had a big time in Baton Rouge
Texas got me tipsy, California got me loose
I found love in South Dakota so I brought her home with me
I keep on punching on this time clock and working on this dream

And I keep on rollin' up and down these interstates
I got to keep on goin' till I hear my name at Heaven's gates
It's all bright lights and gasoline, truck stops and coffee beans
I believe in what I do and thats the truth
I'll run my race until my work is through
Like a traveling man will do
I'll run my race until my work is through
Like a traveling man will do

He lost his job back in 2008
The market crashed, they blamed it on the banks
He said, God save the middle class, God save the poor
These one percenters they only want more

And I ain't coming back till everything gets straightened out
I ain't coming back till help is on the way

He drank the year away 2010
He held the bottle like it was his only friend
And all the screaming, she took off her ring
She cried and said I need some time to think

And I ain't coming back till everything gets straightened out
I ain't coming back till help is on the way

He took some time back in 2012
When he checked in to better himself
He said, these steps are steep for a stubborn man
But I'll keep on climbing and stick to the plan

And I ain't coming back till everything gets straightened out
I ain't coming back till help is on the way
No I ain't coming back, I ain't coming back
till everything gets straightened out
I ain't coming back, I ain't coming back
till help is on the way

(Verse 1)
I was coming off the wagon the other night.
She was headed up to my house.
I was sad cause I lost a good friend.
She was mad cause I was high again.

(Chorus)
She said Oh My Lord, this aint the right way to grieve.
Oh My Lord, she helped me up off my knees.

(Verse 2)
We hit the road on a dusty trail.
Up 65, to Tennessee.
Lightning lit up the evening sky.
Smoky Mountains had us both bone dry.

(Chorus)
She said Oh My Lord, this lonesome road feels so free.
Oh My Lord, then she told me she loved me.

(Bridge)
We were raised up the same way.
Southern blood in our veins.
We say that God has mysterious ways to things we can’t explain.

(Chorus)
She said Oh My Lord, honey just please.
Oh My Lord, take a second, just breathe.
Oh My Lord, maybe change’ll be good for me.
Oh My Lord, cause there’s something out there I need.

Oh My Lord (2x)

(Verse 1)
Well I think I’m getting old, things don’t excite me like they used to.
Money, drugs, and rock n roll, ain’t all that they’re cracked up to.
Where did my friends go?
They cut their hair, and got a job, so I cut my hair too.
Where did my friends go?
They cut their hair, quit singing songs, now they’re miserable.

(Chorus)
So won’t you pick me up and take me down, to that place where we used to go.
Won’t you pick me up and take me down, to that place where we used to go.
Cause I hear its beautiful this time of year.

(Verse 2)
Yes I think I’m growing cold. Things don’t heat me up quite like they used to.
New cities, women, and open roads, they only make me think about you.
Tell me where did my friends go?
They cut their hair, and got a job, so I got me a hair cut too.
Tell me where did my friends go?
They cut their hair, quit singing songs, now they’re miserable…and I don’t wanna be miserable…no.

(Chorus)
So won’t you pick me up and take me down, to that place where we used to go.
Won’t you pick me up and take me down, to that place where we used to go.
Cause I hear its beautiful this time of year.

I think I’m getting old…I just want the flame to burn like it used to…
So won’t you pick me up and take me down to that place where we used to go.

So won’t you pick me up and take me down, to that place where we used to go.
Won’t you pick me up and take me down, to that place where we used to go.
Cause I know its beautiful this time of year.
Yeah this time of year.

(Verse 1)
I keep on walking another mile, I keep on catching a trace.
I’m just a rambler on the open road, just a familiar face.

(Chorus)
So take me as I come, and release me when we’re done.
We’ll hitch a ride to a rolling stone, I can’t make the journey alone.
And I beginning to see, its in my blood for me to roam.

(Verse 2)
I fake a smile in a crowded isle, I keep on running in place.
I’m stealing water just to stay alive, need a familiar face.

(Chorus)
So take me as I come, and release me when we’re done.
We’ll hitch a ride to a rolling stone, I can’t make the journey alone.
And I beginning to see, its in my blood for me to roam.

(Bridge)
Well, well, Mr. Natural Born Wonder…aint it a sight to see
You can never go under, open your lungs and breathe.
Pick a fight with the thunder, face the army at the sea.
Your catching dreams with a trap door.
Open your eyes and believe.
Open your eyes to see.

(Verse 3)
I keep on walking another mile, I keep on catching a trace.
I’m just a rambler on the open road, just a familiar face.

(Chorus)
So take me as I come, and release me when we’re done.
We’ll hitch a ride to a rolling stone, I can’t make the journey alone.
And I beginning to see, its in my blood for me to roam.
I beginning to see, its in my blood for me to roam.
Its in my blood for me to roam (3x)

Like a wild fire burning down deep in me
I got to get on the road where I can be free. Its in my blood for me to roam.
Like an old friend calling out deep for me.
I got to get on the road where I can be free. Its in my blood for me to roam.
Its in my blood for me to roam.
Its in my blood for me to roam.

(Verse 1)
Well your wandering mind’s got you late again, and the dogs barking at your door.
You better turn the lock, don’t let him in, cause you got to go and hit the road.
You know a day spent off is wasted. If your feet don’t move, you sink.
You like the way you feel when you walk on the edge and your body’s right near the brink.

(Chorus)
Cruise on my brother. With the window let down and the wind blowing through your hair.
Cruise on down to another…city where you’ve got some good people waiting there.
Move on.

(Verse 2)
Well its getting harder, and harder, just to make a new way these days.
When everybody’s in the same lane and they’re moving in the same way.
But keep your focus on, and keep your eyes ahead. Learn to shift when you need to turn.
I guess its true what they say in life…boy you got to just live and learn.

(Chorus)
Cruise on my brother. With the window let down and the wind blowing through your hair.
Cruise on down to another…city where you’ve got some good people waiting there.
Move on now.

Cruise on my brother. With the window let down and the wind blowing through your hair.
Cruise on down to another…city where you’ve got some good people waiting there.
Cruise on my brother. With the window let down and the wind blowing through your hair.
Cruise on down to another…city where you’ve got some good people waiting there.
Hey, hey, waiting there for you.

(Verse 1)
I’m running myself crazy, trying to pay these bills.
I’m the thinest I’ve ever been, cause I can’t afford some meals.
But I’m doing what I love, so I try not to complain.
When there’s people losing jobs they never liked anyway…every day….every day.

But I still need a break, yeah every now and then.
Just to clear my head, and talk to a good ol friend.
So I call you up on a Saturday to see if you’re around.
I got so much thats on my mind and I wanna skip this town
Lets ride…Do you wanna take a ride?

(Chorus)
I wanna stay up all night, drinking beer with my best friend.
I wanna see both of my granddaddy’s they’re the definition of men.
I wanna drive fast on those back roads, like I did when I was young.
Yeah break the law then go to church…Lord forgive me for what I’ve done.
My people here are real. They don’t leave when times get bad.
They stick around, they lend a hand, and you’ll see it for yourself.
Lets ride, yeah lets ride.
Do you wanna take a ride?

(Verse 2)
Well I’m headed down to my southern town. In my heart I call it home.
My family is there, and they understand what I’m out here trying to do.
But I can’t get there fast enough to see my mother smile.
And hug the neck of my father, I ain’t seen him in a while.
Let’s ride. Yeah let’s ride.
Do you wanna take a ride?

(Chorus)
I wanna stay up all night, drinking beer with my best friend.
I wanna see both of my granddaddy’s they’re the definition of men.
I wanna drive fast on those back roads, like I did when I was young.
Yeah break the law then go to church…Lord forgive me for what I’ve done.
My people here are real. They don’t leave when times get bad.
They stick around, they lend a hand, and you’ll see it for yourself.
Lets ride, yeah lets ride.
Do you wanna take a ride?
take a ride
Do you wanna take a ride?

(Outro)
Well I’m headed down to my southern town. In my heart I call it home.
My family is there, and they understand what I’m out here trying to do.
But I can’t get there fast enough to see my mother smile.
And hug the neck of my father, I ain’t seen him in a while.
Let’s ride. let’s ride.
I’m headed home tonight.

(Verse 1)
Well somebody call the doctor, cause I’m feeling way too good.
I’m getting wrapped around your finger like I knew I would.
I just need a little help momma, aw just to get me through.
Need a little bit of help momma, that’s why I’m calling on you.
And you call me baby and it cuts me to my knees.

(Chorus)
Aw yeah, you got the best of me and thats alright.
Oh you got the best of me and I’ll be fine.
Yeah you got the best of me, but just sit tight.
My love’s ignited and I’m on fire tonight.

(Verse 2)
You’re just a high flying beauty. Head in the clouds, feet on the ground.
But I aint complaining and I damn sure aint too proud.
Just to say I need some help momma, yeah just to get me through.
Need a little bit of help momma, thats why I’m calling on you.
And now you’re strutting telling everyone to bow to the queen.

(Chorus)
Aw yeah, you got the best of me and thats alright.
Oh you got the best of me and I’ll be fine.
Yeah you got the best of me, but just sit tight.
My love’s ignited and I’m on fire tonight.

(Bridge)
So won’t you carry me through
won’t you carry me through
won’t you carry me through
Carry me through

(Verse 3)
Well somebody call the doctor, cause I aint feeling like I should.
I let you in, you cut me deep, just like I knew you would.
I still need a little help momma, yeah just to get me through.
Need a little bit of help momma, thats why I’m calling on you.
And now you’re telling everybody to kiss your ring.

(Chorus)
Aw yeah, you got the best of me and thats alright.
Oh you got the best of me and I’ll be fine.
Yeah you got the best of me, but just sit tight.
My love’s ignited and I’m on fire tonight.

You got the best of me

(Verse 1)
She looked at me with bloodshot eyes, and said I don’t think I’ve ever seen you cry.
But its way too late, cause I’m gone for good this time.
Well you might as well-a killed me there, ripped out my lungs and took all my air.
My pride was in your hands when you walked out.

(Chorus)
I dont know what I’m gonna do.
All the whiskey in the world can’t keep my mind off you.
I keep praying every morning for the strength to pull me through.
These late night, glassy eyed, empty bottle, miss you blues.

(Verse 2)
Now I’m lost at sea with no sight of land. Wondering how I could’ve been a better man.
I keep playing that scene through my head …. Again and again.
I get up just to get down low again. Lately sleep aint been my friend.
And I don’t see a sunrise without the spins.

(Chorus)
I dont know what I’m gonna do.
All the whiskey in the world can’t keep my mind off you.
I keep praying every morning for the strength to pull me through.
These late night, glassy eyed, empty bottle, miss you blues.
Miss you blues.

(Bridge)
There’s nothing out there to ease the pain.
I know cause I’ve tried everything…. Lord, I’ve tried everything.

(Chorus)
I dont know what I’m gonna do.
All the whiskey in the world can’t keep my mind off you.
I keep praying every morning for the strength to pull me through.
These late night, glassy eyed, looking for a street fight, wanting my woman back, empty bottle, miss you blues.

Miss you blues.

(Verse 1)
When I was a young man, the wolves lead me like a sheep.
They said trust and believe me boy, its the American dream.

(Chorus)
Then the hammer came down.
The hammer came down.
The hammer came down.
And its all over now.

(Verse 2)
When I was a young man, I spoke like a child.
I stood on the back row, I let life pass me by.

(Chorus)
Then the hammer came down.
The hammer came down.
The hammer came down.
And its all over now.

Then the hammer came down.
The hammer came down.
The hammer came down.
And its all over now.
All over now.
All over now.
All over now.
It's over now.

(Verse 1)
These cobblestone streets and the Spanish you speak, all remind me.
That I’m so far away from the cotton fields and ways I grew up on.
I’m living this dream, and I’m trying to find grace to sustain me.
The temptations too much and I give into the rush one more time.

(Chorus)
It’s gonna be a hard road home.
It’s gonna be a hard road home.
It’s gonna be a hard road home.
It’s gonna be a hard road home.

(Verse 2)
The places I see, and the people I meet, they don’t change me.
I take a piece from each one and I steal away like a thief in the night.
I’ve let myself down and I’ve picked myself up, and I’ve grown.
I found mistakes are just lessons you leave behind for someone to learn from.

(Chorus)
It’s gonna be a hard road home.
It’s gonna be a hard road home.
It’s gonna be a hard road home.
It’s gonna be a hard road home.

(Verse 3)
The sun keeps on rising, and falls in the evenings.
It always reminds me that time does the healing of wild hearted rebels and renegades who stay on the run.
But make no mistake, its not time to slow down.
I’ve made the changes, when love comes around…I’ll kiss her sweet lips and I’ll take my seat at the table.

(Chorus)
Cause I aint afraid…of the hard road home.
I’m looking ahead…to the hard road home.
Redemption it lays…on the hard road home.
So I’ll make my way…on the hard road home.
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I will.

(Verse 1)
I got a ways to go while the moon hangs high…I still hope she’s mine.
I’ve waited two long years for this one night…I still hope she’s mine.
I’ve been down in the hole, been locked up tight…still hope that she’s mine.
And if they catch me again they won’t take me alive…

(Chorus)
I wanna see my girl
Lord knows I need my girl
I broke out to be with my girl
Aint nothing keepin me from seeing my girl.

(Verse 2)
I hear the rattle of the chains on my ankles tight…I still hope that she’s mine.
I cut my arm wide open on a razor wire…I still hope that she’s mine.
Now this trail of blood’s gone leave a sign…still hope she’s mine.
But if they catch me again, they won’t take me alive…

(Chorus)
I’m gonna see my girl
Lord knows I need my girl
I broke out to be with my girl
Aint nothing keepin me from seeing my girl.

(Verse 3)
Well its pitch black dark, and I’m running blind…I still hope she’s mine.
I ain’t slept in days and my eyes are tired…still hope that she’s mine.
But the thought of her touch is worth every mile…she still hope that she’s mine.
And if they catch me again, they won’t take me alive…

(Outro)
When I walked into the house…she was standing there in her old white cotton gown.
She fell into my arms and cried…and I promised her I’d never leave her side.
The fire was blazing in her eyes…getting dizzy off love and cheap red wine.
She wrapped me up wearing only a smile…and we were headed for the border in the sweet sunshine.

(Verse 1)
The man on the evening news, said the world’s gonna end here soon.
So you lay out your Sunday dress. I wear my tie and vest.
We’ll leave here looking fine. Make a toast with our favorite wine.
When the lights go out we’ll burn the…candle I gave you for Christmas.

(Chorus)
The streets are empty now.
This city’s a ghost town.
Everybody’s with who they love.
And we’re alone here in your room.

(Verse 2)
We talk about how we met. Share one last cigarette.
Then I play your favorite love songs. You dance and sing along.
We laugh until we cry. Saying we’re too young to die.
And we make love while the sirens, announce the final hour.

(Chorus)
The streets are empty now.
This city’s a ghost town.
Everybody’s with who they love.
And we’re alone here in your room.
I held you through the night.
We never closed our eyes.
The sun came up again.
And this old world still spins.
Here in this ghost town.
Here in this ghost town.
Here in this ghost town.
We’re still alone up in your room.

(Outro)
The man on the evening news, said the world’s gonna end here soon.

(Verse 1)
This is where I’m from, this is where I’m found.
Where I learned to say “yes sir, and yes ma’m”
Roll the windows down and out-stretch your hands.
I’m taking you down to my fathers land.

(Chorus)
Down where the waters run.
Deep in the Alabama brush.
Trying our hand at love.
Just learning what we’re made of.

(Verse 2)
Around here we’re slow to anger, and quick to help.
But if you take it for granted, better watch yourself.
There ain’t many seen the rough side of me.
Cause I keep myself in good company.

(Chorus)
Down where the waters run.
Deep in the Alabama brush.
Trying our hand at love.
Just learning what we’re made of.
Hold onto me real tight, as we ride down the pine tree line.
Make it up as we go along.
learning what we’re made of.

(Bridge)
Now some say it ain’t that much to see.
But this here’s the home of the younger me.

(Chorus)
Way down where the waters run.
Deep in the Alabama brush.
Trying our hand at love.
Just learning what we’re made of.
So hold onto me real tight, as we ride down the pine tree line.
Make it up as we go along.
learning what we’re made of.
We’re just learning what we’re made of.
Just learning what we’re made of.
We’re just learning what we’re made of.

(Verse 1)
Welcome boys and girls to the carnival show.
We’re open 365 rain, sleet, or snow. Oh,oh, oh
Well I’m gonna give it all I got. Till it crashes to the ground.
When you hear this ringing in your ear, this is the sound. Oh, oh, oh,

(Chorus 1)
Oh so tell me what you want, tell me what you need, you can take it from me.
Tell me what you want, anything you need, you can take it from me. Oh, Oh, Oh

(Bridge)
Pack up your bags for its time that we go.
Lets give the people a hell of a show.
Time after time after time it ends…we’re so happy we don’t want it to end.
We rode in on the midnight train.
We’ll never come this way again.
Time after time after time it begins…we’re so happy we don’t want it to end.
Oh, Oh, Oh… We don’t want it to end.
So take it all from me. Take anything you need. Oh you can take it from me.
Oh, Oh, Oh.

(Verse 1)
It’s something of a buzz.
Connection through a wire.
If it’s alright by you, I think I’ll stop by for the fire.
See what’s goin’ on.
We danced all night we cried and prayed.
For the good times they won’t die.
Found out wood burns, and laughter fades.
If I told you I know, then I lied.

(Chorus)
The rolling hills and green trees fade into summers chill and spirits free.
Midnight sirens wailing raid, brought a flood of tears over me.
The exit signs were burning bright, as I made my way for the door.
And as I ran into the night, heard the chorus of flames screaming, I want some more.

(Verse 2)
Well it’s time to take your bow.
The final curtain goes down.
She was the center of our minds, she was the heart of this town, now she’s gone.
She’s gone away where the…

(Chorus)
The rolling hills and green trees fade into summers chill and spirits free.
Midnight sirens wailing raid, brought a flood of tears over me.
The exit signs were burning bright, as I made my way for the door.
And as I ran into the night, heard the chorus of flames screaming, I want some more.

(Bridge)
Red ashes burning
Music’s in the air
Oh we’ll sing together
Just not here…Georgia Fire
Georgia Fire…caught in the middle of a raging Georgia Fire.

(Chorus)
The rolling hills and green trees fade into summers chill and spirits free.
Midnight sirens wailing raid, brought a flood of tears over me.
The exit signs were burning bright, as I made my way for the door.
And as I ran into the night, heard the chorus of flames screaming, I want some more.

Georgia Fire. Rage on Georgia Fire.

(Verse 1)
With the ink still drippin’ from an empty pen.
Found a letter you wrote, said you’re gone again.
You go trippin’ through the stars at night.
Find a million dollar girl and put the moves on right.
You got me thinking…oh you got me thinking

Can you send me some paper that I can spend?
Don’t think I can break, but I sure can bend.
This pictures my friend, it’s my family.
You’ve been more than a maker, been a friend to me.

(Chorus)
See I want the girl with American eyes.
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy.
She can tell me no. While she takes me home.

(Verse 2)
It’s not farewell, and it’s not goodbye.
If they don’t call me the king, at least you know I tried.
I walk alone, but not tonight.
I found a million dollar girl, I put the moves on right.

(Chorus)
See I want the girl with American eyes.
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy.
She can tell me no. While she takes me home.
Oh take me home…

I want the girl. I want the girl. With American eyes…with American Eyes.

(Chorus)
See I want the girl with American eyes.
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy.
She can tell me no. While she takes me home.
I found the girl with American eyes.
With the sun kissed skin that money can’t buy.
She can tell me no. While she takes me home.

I know…I know.

(Verse 1)
There seems to be another foothill along the line.
It’s right outside your door…let it ring out from your core.
I’ll be your stranger in this world with no desire.
And to the mountain tops they’ll flee…just to stand right next to me…you’ll see.

(Chorus)
So sing me a song.
Open all the windows, dance, while we all play along.
Go on and take your ride…Alongside Mr. Hyde.

(Verse 2)
Through the day I’m him, at night comes only me.
And if the light puts back the day…then we’ll all just fade away.
Desperate deeds be done to all of those that hide.
It’s for another time and place…maybe later in outer space.

(Chorus)
Till then you’ll sing me a song.
Open all the windows, dance, while we all play along.
Sit back, enjoy your ride…Alongside Mr. Hyde.
Enjoy your ride.

There seems to be another foothill along the line.
It’s right outside your door…let it ring out from your core.

(Chorus)
Why won’t sing me a song.
Open all the windows, dance, while we all sing along.
Tell me how was your ride?
Alongside Mr. Hyde.

How was your ride?
Did you enjoy your ride?
How was the night?
Did you enjoy your ride?

Did you enjoy your ride beside Mr. Hyde?

(Verse 1)
Lights are steady flashing, and the night is burning bright.
A city with a passion, still away I see her light.
Oh she’ll burn you with her passion.

(Chorus)
Don’t you wanna see, don’t you wanna know?
Wouldn’t you ever like see where you gotta go…I don’t know.
Don’t you wanna see, don’t you wanna know?
Wouldn’t you ever like see where you gotta go…I don’t know.

(Verse 2)
The thieves they run right through you.
Like lions in the streets.
Last laughs are owned by those, whom your eyes may never meet.
So turn around and walk away….just turn around and walk away.

(Chorus)
Don’t you wanna see, don’t you wanna know?
Wouldn’t you ever like see where you gotta go…I don’t know.
Don’t you wanna see, don’t you wanna know.
Wouldn’t you ever like see where you gotta go…I don’t know.
Don’t you wanna see, don’t you wanna know?
Don’t you wanna see where you gotta go…I don’t know.
Don’t you wanna see, don’t you wanna know?
Don’t you wanna see where you gotta go…I don’t know.

Well now I know. Yes now I know
Yes I see you and now I know
Now I know…I’m coming back to you.

(Ending)
Come on people join together, stories of your golden days.
Let your joy light up the city, home aint all that far away.
Come on brothers join together, stories of your golden days.
Let your joy light up the city, home aint all that far away.
Come on sisters join together, stories of your golden days.
Let your joy light up the city, home aint all that far away.

Home’s not too far away (3x)

(Verse 1)
Last night, your friends turned up their noses, at the old dead black roses I had for you.
And tonight, I’m thinking bout tomorrow, got to beg steal or borrow, to get you back home to me.
I’ve had nothing since you’ve been free
I’ve had nothing since you’ve been free

(Verse 2)
Last night, you threw me back down on the dirty ground, even though you know I finally found the truth.
And tonight, I’m changing things about the man, you cursed condemned and could not stand
Oh that man was me.
I’m the reason your heart bleeds.
I’m the reason your weary heart bleeds.

(Verse 3)
Last night, the hurt shot forth from your lips, like cannon balls from warring ships, upon me.
Tonight, I’m living with this stinging pain, because you know it’s made me sane
But the price of sanity…
Was watching you leave me.
Was watching you walk out on me.

(Bridge)
I know I’ll have to fight for you, but I aint been feeling strong.
But I won’t give up until you’re coming home…to me.

(Verse 4)
Last night, a shameful look in the mirror, made it so much clearer…I need you.
Tonight, I’m holding my head up high, because you know I’ve got to try…
To get you back home to me.

I’ve had nothing since you’ve been free (4x)

(Verse 1)
Come on lady take a ride with me.
I’ll take you to places that you never would see.
Around the corner and across the bend.
Where the green grass grows on this side of the fence.

Turn on the light let electricity flow.
Course through your fingers, down to your toes.
I can feel the earth just spinning round.
But you never saw me step foot outside your house.

(Chorus)
Your fantastic colors are shinning through.
I see more clearly when I’m near you.
Tell me your secrets, tell me your plans.
And I can take you cruising through the highlands.
We’ll make some memories.
We’ll make our memories.

(Verse 2)
Rooftop surfin’ in the dead of night.
Don’t worry bout me, I’ll be just fine.
I don’t ever wanna have to come down.
Cause the sky looks big on your side of town.

(Chorus)
Your fantastic colors are shinning through.
I see more clearly when I’m near you.
Tell me your secrets, tell me your plans.
And I can take you cruising through the highlands.
Where your eyes, they shine like a star on me.
And your my perfect memory…oh yeah it’s true.

Your fantastic colors are shinning through.
I see more clearly when I’m near you.
Tell me your secrets, tell me your plans.
And I can take you cruising through the highlands.
Where lady your eyes, they shine like a star on me.
And your my perfect memory.

(Verse 1)
Time moves slow, when you’ve got nowhere to go.
Daylight grows, still nobody knows…or goes.

(Chorus)
Time moves slow, as the hands move round.
Daylight grows, as the sun sinks down.

(Verse 2)
Well the hands move round, and round, slower when the sun sinks down.
So everybody gather in, we’re soon sky bound.

(Chorus)
Time moves slow, as the hands move round.
Daylight grows, as the sun sinks down.

(Chorus)
Time moves slow, as the hands move round.
Daylight grows, as the sun sinks down, through the ground.

(Verse 1)
Your train’s coming over the horizon, and you got your tickets in hand.
All your bags are packed and they’re hanging by your side now…all thats missing is your man.
And no one knows, the pain that you have taken.
And no one knows, all this pain that you have given.

(Chorus)
Well you better get yourself in line.
Get yourself in line. Get yourself in line, and leave as fast as you came.

(Verse 2)
That day plays through your mind, just like a train that’s in your head.
With his body lying cold now, down on the river bed.
And the woman staring back in the mirror gives you a happy/sad face.
As she sings sweet songs to the Lord of amazing grace.
Still no one knows, the pain that you have taken.
And no one knows, all this pain that you have given away.

(Chorus)
Well you better get yourself in line.
Get yourself in line. Get yourself in line, and leave as fast as you came.
Well you better get yourself in line.
Get yourself in line. Get yourself in line, and leave as fast as you came.

(Bridge)
Somewhere in your head, you think he’s better off dead.
Cause the money in your bags treats you better than he ever ever did.
They’ll never suspect you, cause it was his face on the camera, you just drove the car.
That bank never knew what hit em, now you’re gonna go far, far, far, far, far, far, far from here.

(Chorus)
Well you better get yourself in line.
Get yourself in line. Get yourself in line, and leave as fast as you came.
Girl you better get yourself in line.
Get yourself in line. Get yourself in line, and leave as fast as you came.

Oh you get away from here.
You better leave…just get away from here.
Get yourself in line and leave…get away from here.

Verse 1)
Why don’t you slide yourself a little closer to me?
We can have our fill of Carolina sweet tea.
Lets go dig us a hole in the cold, cold sand.
And start up this fire just as fast as we can.

(Chorus)
There’s a new year coming up with the sun…and I’m looking for a Resolution.
Yes there’s a new day and it’s here for change…and I’m searching for my Resolution.

(Verse 2)
I’m gonna kiss my girl and let the champagne flow.
The fire in your eyes makes the skyline glow.
So won’t you be a doll, and sport your green dress.
Your looks are my killer, I must confess.

(Chorus)
There’s a new year coming up with the sun…and I’m looking for a Resolution.
Yes there’s a new day and it’s here for change…and I’m searching for my Resolution.

(Bridge)
So let the breeze clear your mind.
Let the waves soothe your soul.
I’ve been waiting so long now for some relaxed damage control.

(Chorus)
There’s a new year coming up with the sun…and I’m looking for a Resolution.
Yes there’s a new day and it’s here for change…I think I found my Resolution.
You know I found it in you.

There’s a new year coming up with the sun…and I found my Resolution.
There’s a new day and it’s time for change…you’re my Resolution.

(Verse 1)
As we start moving past, times when no one could laugh.
Actions that blurred our sight, wrongs we have never made right.
Hope keeps on shining through, and the future is always new.

(Chorus)
Memories won’t bring us down.
They stop and they turn us around.
Steps we took made us proud.
And that carries us now.

(Verse 2)
You think you lost it all.What I’ve done made me fall.
Redemption seems out of reach. Forgiveness is hard to preach.
Lessons we’ve learned remain, in a steadfast refrain.

(Chorus)
Memories won’t bring us down.
They stop and they turn us around.
Steps we took made us proud.
And that carries us now.

(Verse 3)
Wishing on empty stars, too many drinks in too many bars.
Heavy hearts slow their beats, guilty minds fail to think.
The burden will only grow, if seeds of suffering are sown.

Tried to fool all our friends.
They found us in the end.
We changed our ways and now…We’re leading the crowd
Look at us now.

(Chorus)
Memories won’t bring us down.
They stop and they turn us around.
Steps we took made us proud.
And that carries us now.

We’ve posed as kings with crowns.
Acted like foolish clowns.
Ignorance kept us bound.
But the joy we have found, lifts us from the ground.
And it carries us now. It carries us now.
It carries us now.

(Verse 1)
My baby wears a black dress in the morning time
And she wears no shoes when she walks
She like, she like, she likes the style I wear
And she loves to hear me talk
We could stay up all night long, oh and never say a thing
Oh but when I ask her greatest fear…she says I never wanna wear no wedding ring

(Chorus)
She likes the way I move, and she digs the way I shake.
And we’re grooving when I’m swinging my hair, moving my feet to the beat we make
And I love it when she breaks… that girl she’ll break your heart
She’ll break your heart

(Verse 2)
Now everybody knows she don’t like to sleep at night
The girls got the blackest curtain, yeah so she can sleep all day
My baby no, she don’t like to fuss or fight.
She said it aint never helped nobody, noway

(Chorus)
She likes the way I move, and she digs the way I shake.
And we’re grooving when I’m swinging my hair, moving my feet to the beat we make
And I love it when she breaks… that girl she’ll break your heart
She’ll break your heart

(Bridge)
Well, well, well, well, they said she gonna break your heart
I told em, let her tear it apart.
Cause I dance like there’s something to prove
That’s when she whispered in my ear…

(Chorus)
She likes the way I move, and she digs the way I shake.
And we’re grooving when I’m swinging my hair, moving my feet to the beat we make
And I love it when she breaks… that girl she’ll break your heart
She’ll break your heart

(Verse 1)
Crying on the phone again tonight, but you called my number for a different reason this time.
You see, I think I’ve got a little bit of treason on my mind.
But can you tell me why is there tears in your eye

(Chorus 1)
I said now Brandee dry your eyes, cause every little things gonna be just alright

(Verse 2)
Well its been a little while since we’ve spoke.
Where have you been, and how you doing…Hows your folks?
I heard it through the grapevine that you got a surprise
But can you tell me why is there tears in your eyes

(Chorus 2)
I said now Brandee dry your eyes, cause every little things gonna be just alright
I said now Brandee dry your eyes, and come sit with me

(Bridge)
Running fast from where you came.
The people talking and they’re saying that girls life will never ever be the same
Well I’ll tell you, don’t you know I’m here to tell you…
Not to worry cause everything’s gonna be okay for you Brandee

(Verse 3)
Well I can’t change your situation, I can’t take back all your lies
But like a stone I’ll stand beside you, cause it kills me to see you cry

(Chorus 3)
I said Brandee dry your eyes, cause every little things gonna be just alright
I said now Brandee dry your eyes, and come and lay with me and I’ll make it just fine, fine

(Verse 1)
Well that girl she went away. She took the long way home today
She said I got to find me a honey. Who can provide a little money
And here we are again. Here we are again

(Chorus)
Well she’s on the dance floor singing. I was in the back, in the back room looking
She said I got me some money. And for a little paper you can be my honey
And here we are again. Here we are again
Well, well here we are again

(Verse 2)
See now that girl she went away. Walked back home filthy rich today.
She said I found me honey. My honey stole me some money.
Your momma gonna see your face, on the tv screen tonight
The newspaper’s gonna print your name, in straight black and white
And your family will say…we knew we’d see the day
Now child what do you have to say for yourself?
What do you have to say for yourself?

(Chorus 2)
She said I’d rather be out on the dance floor singing
Here we are again
I’d rather be out on the dance floor singing
Here we are again

(Verse 1)
Let all noise fade away. Count your blessings in your life today
Did you ever really know my name? When you told me we’d escape…can you tell me now?
Let the sea take you on down. Breathe and let the waves crash all around
Tell me did you ever need to know my name? When you told me we’d escape.

(Chorus 1)
You had me running home. Cause I know your blue.
Running home. Just to sit right down and talk to you.
Running home. Cause I heard your blue, and I want to be with you, with you.

(Verse 2)
You came, you saw, and you stayed.
So lets heat it up, bring it back down, just to feel the same.
Now you never ever knew my name, still you told me we’d escape.

(Bridge)
These days, you got me feeling blue. But somedays, I’m flying on high with you.
I said these days, you got me feeling so blue. But somedays, I’m flying on high with you.
She told me we’d escape, and I believed her.
She told me we’d escape, she did enough just to be a deceiver
She told me we’d escape, should have never believed her
She told me we’d escape, and she had me running

(Chorus 2)
Running home, cause I know your blue
Running home, just to sit myself down and talk to you
Running home, cause I know your blue and I wanna be with you…I gotta be with you

I want to be with you…I got to be near you
She told me we’d escape

(Verse 1)
Come on in and sit right down, and have a drink with me
Everybody here knows my name, but none can tell my story
See I was born just a short time ago, on the east side of a west shore
Six feet tall you know she dropped my jaw and had me wanting some more

(Chorus 1)
Your storm was a brewing in me
Your storm was too dark to see
Your love, well its my mystery…making me dizzy, so come and get me, get me

(Verse 2)
Excuse me, I dont mean to be rude, but I didn’t catch your name.
You look familiar. Have we met somewhere, and have I ever played your game?
Well she smiled and I think that she laughed. Trippin’ towards the door.
Six feet tall you know she dropped my jaw, and had me begging for more

(Chorus 2)
Your storm was a brewing in me
Your storm was too dark to see
Your love, well its my mystery…making me dizzy, so come and get me

(Bridge)
These times were so good. Living our dreams just like should
Playing odds, playing your fool.
Buying borrowed time in a shallow pool…and she whispered come and get me, get me

(Verse 3)
How’d you get right through my door. I never heard you knock.
Truth don’t live here anymore. Who changed the time on my clock?
White washed walls in the kitchen hall, they all fade to black.
Six feet tall you know she dropped my jaw and had me crawling right back.

(Chorus 3)
Your storm was a brewing in me
Your storm still too dark to see
Your love, will always be my mystery…making me dizzy, so come and get me, get me

(Verse 1)
Baby let me be your passion, let me be all you need.
Reach your hands out and heal me, roll me in your love sweet lady I’m begging you please.
I really wanna be on your side, lady will you stand on mine.
Write your name in the mirror, draw a little clearer, cross it with your bright line…cross it with your bright line.

(Chrous 1)
Baby, you got something that I think’ll go good with me
So lady don’t you worry, we’ll walk on down this road
We’ll be alone, but not afraid, cause the fire’s in our bones…but please don’t let you hands shake

(Verse 2)
I can see your skin through the darkness, I can feel your lips on mine
Wanna feel the rhythm of your heartbeat, know just how to start me,
so buckle up and take your ride, ride, ride, ride.
We’re gonna take a ride out of here

(Chours 2)
I said baby, you got something that I think’ll go good with me.
I said baby, you got what I need, just what I need
So lady don’t you worry, we’ll walk on down this road
We’ll be alone, but not afraid, cause the fire’s in our bones…
I said please don’t you let your hands shake. Please keep your shaky hands still

(Chorus 3)
Well Nobody had to tell me that baby you got something that I think’ll go good with me, I know it will.
I said baby you got what I need, you got just what I need…yes you do

(Outro)
Baby let me be your passion, let me be all you need.
Reach your hands out and heal me, roll me in your love sweet lady I’m begging you please.
Don’t let your hands shake.

(Verse 1)
I see you dancing in my streetlight baby, I see you grooving with me.
I wanna lay you down in the moonlight darling. I wanna be your fantasy.

We’re gonna get the hell outta this town lady, gonna leave this world with me.

(Chorus 1)
I said you’re my. streetlight. gypsy. You’re my street light gypsy. (2x)

I see you dancing in my streetlight, I see you dancing in my view
I see you dancing in my streetlight, baby its me and you

(Verse 1)
I see the people just passing by, I’m frozen, yes well I’m paralyzed.
Come save me, come save me.
You’re not awake, but your not asleep, and the tears are freezing on your two bare feet.
Come save me, come save me.

(Chorus 1)
Will she stay? Or will she go?
She’s got a ticket to a rock n roll show.
Stay? Or will she go?
Will she stay or go?

(Verse 2)
Like a Vegabond, I walk all of these dark streets to find you
Come save me. Come save me.
She’ll sing all the sad songs and she’ll make along
I guess the rumors they had to be true.
Won’t you come save me? Won’t you come save me?

(Chorus 2)
Will she stay? Or will she go?
She’s got a ticket to a rock n roll show.
Stay? Or will she go?

(Bridge)

She’s got a ticket to a rock n roll show.
Stay? Or will she go?

(Verse 1)
Mary was the tallest girl in her class.
And they said someday she’ll burn.
Mary and her friends got a new address, and they wait patiently for their turn.

(Chorus 1)
Come and pick me up Mary, oh I need you girl.
She said I’ll help you, but just not today.
Come and pick me up Mary, oh I need you baby.
She said lets save it for a rainy day.

(Chorus 2)
Come and pick me up Mary, oh I need you girl.
She said I’ll help you, but just not today.
Come and pick me up Mary, oh I need you baby.

I hate to call on your services again.
She said I’ll be there for you baby.
Just let all your doubts and dreams and cares and fears float away…with me Mary

(Chorus 3)
So won’t you pick me up Mary, oh she smiled and said, aint it the perfect day.
Come and pick me up Mary, she said well sit down beside me son…

Pick me up Mary

(Verse 1)
He said please follow my lead.
Sometimes time is your friend, its the changing of the leaves.
And the road, leads straight to your cares, but I’m not afraid, and I worry no more.
She’s right by his side, but now she is mine, to love and to hide.
He said I got to catch me train, I got to catch my train.
I aint worried no more.
Then he smiled, and said won’t you smile with me.

(Verse 2)
The preacher falls to his knees.
Shakes, rattles, and rolls, consuming his brain.
They said he’s gonna be ok, he’s should be just fine.
With his eyes fixed on me, he said I feel no pain.
Then he smiled, he said won’t you smile with me.

(Chorus 1)
Then his train, rose over the sun.
Its at my stop and its taking me home.
He said my train is coming over the sun.
And its at my stop and its taking me, taking me home.

(Bridge)
He said I’m tall, and young, and strong
You aint never gonna bring me down (2x)

(Verse 3)
The preacher falls to his knees.
Shakes, rattles, and rolls, consuming his brain.
They said he’s gonna be ok, he’s should be just fine.
With his eyes fixed on me, he said I feel no pain.
Then he smiled, he said won’t you smile with me.

(Chorus 2)
He said my train is coming over the sun.
And its at my stop and its taking me.
He said my train is coming over the sun.
And its at my stop and its taking me, taking me home.

(Outro)
And the preacher, stood up from his knees
Shakes, rattles, and rolls.

(Verse 1)
I’m walking by myself just before the night.
I’m seeing signs, one to my left, and four to my right.
They’re telling me STOP, but I always seem to go.
I’m gonna tell y’all my friends, I’ll see you down the road.

(Chorus 1)
Singing hip, hip, hip hooray
For your side and my side today.
Singing hip, hip, hip, hooray
For your side and my side today.

(Verse 2)
You see the water rising up in them streets?
Children playing and they’re carrying beats.
Well this town it aint my town no more.
You see I got to leave, before they lock and they shut my door.

(Chorus 2)
Singing hip, hip, hip hooray
For your side and my side today.
Singing hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hip, hooray
For your side and my side today.

(Bridge)
So grab your flag and grab your jeans.
This is the revolution speaking, follow me…follow me.
Grab your flag and grab your jeans.
This is the revolution speaking, follow me…follow me.
Singing bye bye baby, leave it all behind
Singing bye bye baby, leave it all behind
Singing bye bye baby, got to leave it all behind
Singing bye bye baby, wont you, wont you come on and leave it behind.

(Verse 3)
You see the water rising up in them streets?
Children playing and they’re carrying beats.
Carry em on
Carry em on
Carry em on down
Tell me where you left the beats. I got to go there
Carry em on
Carry em on
And start up the Revolution!

(Verse 1)
I can’t believe he showed his faec here again
Holding too many cards, you know he can’t win.
I’ll shoot him down, avenge your name…I swear I will.
But I can’t get there if I got to run.
Can I borrow your car? Can you loan me a gun?
I’ll shoot him down, avenge your name…I swear I will.

(Chorus 1)
I’m gonna make my run for the border don’t chase me
Make my run for the border, don’t shoot me
Make my run for the border, don’t you drag me down
I’m gonna make my run for the border don’t chase me
Make my run for the border, don’t shoot me
Make my run for the border, don’t you drag me down

(Verse 2)
Cause I’m down, down for the count
Yes I’m down, down for the count
But don’t count me out

(Chours 2)
I’m gonna make my run for the border don’t chase me
Make my run for the border, don’t shoot me
Make my run for the border, don’t you drag me down
Cause I’m gonna make my run for the border don’t you shoot me
Make my run for the border don’t you chase me
Make my run for the border don’t you drag me down, down, down
