An old man name is Johnson. Had a mansion on a hill. A brand new car, a lumberyard. And a big ol' stack of bills. . The folks around these parks say. He can buy the whole damn town.
When she walked out on me, you hung around. Said you couldn't stand to see me going down. And that someday, I'd forget all about her in time. You were right, she's the last thing on my mind.
I have walked the greener pastures. And I've made a lot of hay. I've gone fast and even faster. I've been lost and found my way. . Got a whole lot out of livin'.
Never was much of a drinking man. Just a good cold beer every now and then. But I met the boys last night at the Dead Dog Lounge. . They talked me into a shot and I was feelin' fine.

You've packed up the cups and dishes loaded down the car. Hold your horses just a minute before you get too far. Where you think you're goin' darlin'?.
Two in the morning telephone rings. Somehow I knew who it was. 'Cause, baby, it's always the same old thing. When you need my love. . You say it's over again and again.
What makes a man promise her forever. When he knows damn well that's something he can't do?. Why does he look into her eyes and tell her lies right off the bat?.
Now don't you worry, baby, I won't tell. I'll keep our little secret to myself. That's fine, no games, no strings if you say so. But tell me just one thing before you go.
Wake up America I got a problem something you may not believe. There is poison in the darkness spreading like a bad disease. I never thought I'd find myself in this condition.
I've got too many pockets on my shirt. Too many choices and it's only getting worse. Too many things that I could do today. Too many stops along the way.
I don't have a lot, but I'm proud of what I've got. I can't complain. 'Cause I see people hangin' 'round, on the city streets downtown. Living on pocket change.
Skipping rocks across the creek. Tasting something good to eat. Feeling grass on my bare feet. And talking to a friend. . Walking down a railroad track.
The way things are goin' in my life. I'm headed for disaster. Livin' fast and faster. A rebel on a roller coaster ride. That's the way things are goin' in my life.
If it's really over and there's nothin' I can say. I'll do my best to hide the pain and turn and walk away. But do me one last favor and pretend you're hurting too.
I always kinda figured love would pass me by. The kinda girl I wanted wouldn't want a guy like me. I thought that she wouldn't look twice. . You see I'm kinda crazy, I like the extremes.
Worked all week, got it all done. Let's make a Tennessee River run. . Hey everybody, I think the time is right. Let's get together down where the catfish bite.
Sometimes this crazy world can make us all feel bad. I sit and watch the news and just get mad. We need to stop and smell the roses in the ground. So get out today, you spread a little love around.
Got a call last night from an old friends wife, said I hate to bother you. But Johnny Ray fell off the wagon, he's been gone all afternoon. Well, I know my buddy so I drove to Scullys and found him at the bar.
He walked into Dusty's place last night. I said something about that boy ain't right. He drank a half a dozen double shots. Walked to the dance floor and picked his spot.
