The cold tonight seems more anxious to talk. Than he has seemed in nights before. Skinless face and yellow heart, he. Hesitates and I wait. All my stories are about the same things.
It's a clear night. How are you tonight. Its a bone white. Smile of a night. There are chimes. That chill my bones. . I know you don't know. Which way I will go.
A little song. A little dance. A little seltzer down yer pants. Lump o gold the size of yer head. A little bramble in yer bed. Happy day in a boat. Trade a heffer for a goat.
Well I've always been a rounder. With a passion for the road. Respect for all the ladies. But easy come and easy go. Love was only in the movies. Not the answer to my dreams.
To the father and the son. Who never talk, come back home. To the husband and the wife. Who are both at fault, come back home. . Forget the past and start again.
Was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June. In a Kenworth pullin' logs. Cab-over Pete with a reefer on. And a Jimmy haulin' hogs. We is headin' for bear on I-one-oh.
So you say your new girlfriend's a little too friendly. You caught her telling one more lie, one too many. You say she won't love you right, she stays out so late at night.
You caught my eye without trying. You stole my heart away. From clear across the room. . Somehow it was plain, you felt the same. Looking back now we can't say.
Cledus went down to Florida, he was lookin' for a car to steal. He was in a bind, ten payments behind, so the bank reposed his wheels. When he came across this old man down at Jalopy's Used Car Lot.
Well, I wake up in the mornin', I brew my coffee hot and strong. I get out my ole guitar, and try to write a song. An them larks are singin, oh Lord, just outside.
Been workin' like a dawg, slavin' on the fence line. Stretchin' those wires tight. Diggin' and tappin' and sweatin' in the sunshine. But I get off tonight.
{If you don't use this nasty stuff don't start. But if youre hopelessly addicted. I guess you gotta find something good to say about a bad habit. Well hey let's try.
Storm clouds are building above the timber line. The lightning's flashing across the mountain side. The thunder's rollin' down the canyons of his mind.
Hold tight with a leather fist. Watch out when he starts to twist. What their daddies used to tell them boys. How to ride them bulls. . I got a jingle in my jeans.
When the rain runs down your window. And you cant hold back your tears. And youre so afraid to be alone. You know Im always right here. . You cry lonely, and I come runnin.
I'm so scared that the way that I feel. Is written all over my face. When you walk into the room. I wanna find a hiding place. . We used to laugh, we used to hug.
I've heard it said before. If you don't care no more. Got to pick up tracks, don't look back. Walk on out that door. . I tell my friends it's easy. She's never on my mind.
She's wheeled into the hallway. Till the sun moves down the floor. Little squares of daylight. Like a hundred times before. She's taken to the garden.
Sit down, honey, gotta have us a talk. Your man is a little upset. There's a couple of things. That's been missing. . And I ain't found 'em yet. I ain't pointing no fingers.
My friends and me work overtime. All try to walk the bottom line. You've been breathin' down our necks. But soon as we cash our paychecks. We'll be chillin' on my deck, Boss Man.
