I... I been gone... I been gone too long... singin' my songs... on the road.. Another town... one more show... and I'm coming home.. Don't give a damn what these keys are for... I'm gonna knock down that front door, and....
Yeah, I'd give this last wrinkled dollar. In my pocket that I earned. With a hammer and vice. If I could undo some things. And grow me some wings. Fly out of this quarter tonight.
Yeah, I see you over there makin' eyes at me. But you don't wanna get caught. Now where'd you get the cowboy on your arm. And where you want me to drop him off?.
If I could kill a word and watch it die. I'd poison "never," shoot goodbye. Beat "regret" when I felt I had the nerve. Yeah, I'd pound "fear" to a pile of sand.
Read it in the paper. Marked the date on the wall. To remind myself to celebrate. The day I lose it all. . Ain't made plans to be together. I made plans to be alone.
yea. alright. yea, come on. awe listen up. . I've got a reputaion going around, i aint never been the kind to back down. I've thrown a punch or 2 and gave a few black eyes.
Hung-over and hard up. Broken down and messed up. I never saw your leaving comin' but. I sure felt it when ya left. Memory button stuck on repeat. Mind skippin' like a record machine.

You were too bad for a little square town. With your hip hop hat and your pants on the ground. Heard you cussed out mama, pushed daddy around. You tore off in his car.
I wear a greasy ball cap, I like my shirt untucked. I spend Saturdays working on my truck. I don't like to fight but I ain't scared to bleed. Most don't mess with a guy like me.
No if, and's, but's or maybe's. So you wanna be her baby. I can read your face like a book. Yeah it looks easy to love her but believe me brother. It's harder than it looks.
I'll bet you the wine is fine. And I'll bet you the diamonds are real. And I'll bet you his house is a big one. Up on the hill. . Hey, that's where he's got me girl.
Early Monday morning, til Friday five. Man I work, work, work but I don't climb, climb, climb. Boss man can shove that overtime up his can. All I want to do is put a drink in my hand.
Damn, I used to love this view. Sit here and drink a few. Main street and the high school lit up on Friday night. Down there it's another touchdown. Man, this year's team is stout.
This town, she is a temptress.. A siren with gold eyes, she'll cut you with her kindness,. She will lead you with her lies.. She's been called a glistening devil..
Over there in the shadows, hangin' out in the corner of my mind. Stringing up the gallows, waiting on me to cross that line. That man's dangerous as hell, a threat to himself, if he got out there'd be hell.
Two miles east of the Chickamauga. Just over the hill and across the holla. End of the path leading from the water. There's a one-room, A-frame house.
It was a perfect day for the end of May, they say a record high. I stared at that green water when out of the blue out of surprise. She had her feet up on the cooler as she put our love on ice.
There'll be fire on the mountain. . I had a revelation last night. A divine inspiration from the other side. Of what it's gonna take to right all this wrong.
There's a cabin in a valley,. My grandpa built on your land.. Your mountains are a canvas,. For the makers hand.. . Tonight I'm fishing up a river,. If only in my mind..
