Steven Fromholz. . Hey, if you want to go rockin' on a Saturday night. I know a place down the river where the rhythm is right. The joint is always jumping and there's always a crowd.
There's an old rockin' chair speadin' memories everywhere. On that old home porch across from Tipple's store.. You can see where the wood is worn. Where my granddaddy rested his arm.
Jerry Jeff Walker. . Take it from me it's a mystery, where all my money goes. How I make it week to week, only God almighty knows. Tonight's the night, I make it right, I'm fixin' to go into town.
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain. Telling me what a fool I've been. I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain. Let me be alone again. . The only girl I care about has gone away.
Ramblin', Scramblin'. Tryin' to get my mind untangled..... Ain't never seen nothin' in the whole wide world. That give more trouble than to try 'n love a girl.
Jerry Jeff Walker/Jimmy Buffett. . Chorus:. She's a railroad lady, just a little bit shady,. Spending her days on the train.. She's a semi good-looker, but the fast rails they took 'er,.
You were always the first to let me know. I was always the last to let it show. Holding onto my fear, it would appear. I couldn't bend, now I can pretend.
Run devil run. Devil run. Devil run. . Run devil run. Devil run. Devil run. . Run devil run. Devil run. Devil run.
What are you changing?. Who do you think you're changing?. You can't change things, we're all stuck in our ways. It's like trying to clean the ocean. What do you think you can drain it?.
I was of poor folk. But my mother had a rabbit fur coat. And a girl of less character pushed her down the L.A. River. Hand over that rabbit fur coat. .
You've heard that old story ever since time began that money is root of all evil. Well let me tell you mine it's much older than time for the root of all evil is a man.
Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river, roll on. I've got a notion, you'll go to the ocean alone. I've got a baby in Tennessee. Who's long been a waitin' for little ole me.
Please release me, let me go. I don't love you anymore. To live together is a sin. Release and let me love again. . I have found a new love dear. And I'll always want him near.
There oughta be a law against the runnin' around and leavin' me home at night. I tried everything that I know how to get you to treat me right. Why in the world did you marry me I just don't understand.
Louder, yeah. Louder, louder, louder. Louder, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh. . Can't eat, I can't sleep. I can't think, don't wanna drink. I can't dance, you know I can't move.
I was born a way back in the hills. In a shack the oldest child of ten. On one hot and sultry day. Mama got sick and passed away. Givin' birth to baby brother Ben.
There are the roses and there are the thorns. There's a time for happiness and there's a time to mourn. There's a time to love then when love is faded and worn.
I keep the books at the country courthouse. And answer phones of every kind from coast to coast. Help keep the astronauts in space with complicated formules.
I ain't gonna roll over and play dead. You can get that nonsense sister right outta your head. You go ahead and try to steal my man but you're gonna have the fire on your hands.
I was young when I left you and daddy there was a world outside I had to see. Mama I've sure been a lot of places but Little Rock still looks the best to me.
