Rain fallin, fallin rain. It's a long and troubled night. A night when I wish I could sleep. But there's no sleep inside. . Heart breaking, breaking heart.
(Dean Dillon/Norro Wilson). . The first time I saw you. You were waitin' tables at the corner diner. I said to myself. Never seen a woman look any finer..
I'd rather be home,. But I make my livin' on the go. Big silver eagle spreads her wings. And drops us at another show. I think about holdin' my baby tonight.
Wanted to take her back to my place.. Driving 90, let the cops chase.. Making her damn it feels so good face.. And she don't wanna wait, no, wait till we get home..
Girl, you were always my yellow rose. And I was your one lone star. We always said. Together till death do us part. . We had a love bigger than Texas.

(Lance Miller/Darryl Worley/Kim Williams). . I'm a little bit rough around the edges. Yeah, girl I've been known. To fall too hard. I ain't afraid to dance around.
Girl, if you only knew. How many times. I've reached for you. Every night I'd drift off to sleep. And there you would be. Reaching for me too. Oh but now.
I'm a little rough around the edges. I didn't come out of no GQ magazine. And I don't use a lot of big words. But I'm big on love if you know what I mean..
Well, I was born the restless kind. Settlin' down, never crossed my mind. Wild and woolly, I guess that's me. People sure get nervous when a man is free.
Chorus:. They learned readin', rightin', route 23. To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities' factories. They didn't know that old highway. Could lead them to a world of misery.
Today's the day that the world becomes my oyster. Today's the day that I've set aside. To find a place in the new sunshine. Today's the day that I start using my voice, sir.
Work, work, work, day after day. Fifty hour week, forty hour pay. No time to get over on this overtime. Yeah, I'm always runnin', I'm always runnin' behind.
They come from the wrong side of the track. Born a breed apart. Can't tie em up, can't pin 'em down. Always clinging to some old star. They chase that restless spirit.
(Al Lewis/Sylvester Bradford). . I'm all alone so come on over baby. Right now right now. I'm all alone so come on over baby. Right now right now. Oh don't make em wait child don't you hesitate.
(traditional). . I ain't gonna work on the railroad. Ain't gonna work on the farm. Gonna lay round the shack. Till the mail train comes back. Roll in my sweet baby's arms..
(kinky friedman, panama red). . Jesus said to pilate, remember the golden rule:. Love thy neighbor, don't you step on my blue suede shoes.. Pilate, he said to jesus, hey, you know this ain't no sunday school.
Just a ragged kid in overalls, he thumbed a ride one day. He told me, Anywhere youre going is on my way. But as we passed by Big Als drive-in his eyes began to flash.
(tom paxton). . He was a man and a friend always. He stuck with me in the hard old days.. He never cared if I had no dough,. We rambled round in the rain and snow..
Station was empty. Trains were all gone. I reached in my pocket. Waited for dawn. . The clock played drums. And I hummed the sax. And the wind whistled down.
