Wildfire
03:25
|

|
You see the smoke rise through the clouds
Black ashes raining on the ground
You know you’ve lost all that you’ve found
Wish you could turn it back around
But I’ve seen the way the wildfire spreads and it don’t stop til everything’s dead
Embers glowing
Baby just take my hand we’ll tell the tale of how we ran
And waited out the wildfire
We ain’t got nothing left to lose
No more damage we can do
The things you’ve seen I’ve seen them too
There’s still more hell to make it through
Cuz I’ve seen the way the wildfire spreads and it don’t stop til everything’s dead
Embers glowing
Baby just take my hand we’ll tell the tale of how we ran
And waited out the wildfire
We’ll rise up and we’ll be new
Let’s start a fire me and you
Cuz I’ve seen the way the wildfire spreads and it don’t stop til everything’s dead
Embers glowing
Baby just take my hand we’ll tell the tale of how we ran
You and I are wildfire
Ahhh

Gasoline

The big old city don’t impress me much
All this pavement and not enough dust
Come on baby let your hair down,
won’t you find an open road with me?
We’re burning up the blacktop, while we’re burning up the gasoline
What’s the fastest way outta here
You got a hand on the radio, mine’s on the wheel
Ooooh I hope we never slow down
Keep rolling till we’re finally free
Ooooh no turning back now
You be the spark, and I’ll be the gasoline
We’re tearing down the highway headed west
Packed what we needed left behind the rest
Pull on over put the top down, now that we’re past the city limit sign
Breathing in the country air, yeah we’re breathing in the GA pines
We got a whole lot further to drive
But I don’t mind long as you’re by my side
Come on baby let your hair down
Come on baby let that hair down
And find an open road with me
Ooooh I hope we never slow down
Keep rolling till we’re finally free
Ooooh no turning back now
You be the spark, and I’ll be the gasoline
Ooooh no turning back now
You be the spark, and I’ll be the gasoline

Window Panes
04:37
|
|||
|
Each time you go I watch you through the panes out my window
And wonder if I’ll ever see you again
Cuz I know that I am not exactly what you’d hoped for
You know I’m starting to feel the same about you
But the difference between you and me is I realize I know nothing bout being free
So I rest my hand on this glass and hate myself for things that I have let
Pass me by
I’ve been wasting so much time and now that time is gone
All this waiting got me nothing except knowing I was wrong
It’s hard to know exactly when to quit when you’re losing
But this has gone on for too long
And you’ve always known it’d be easy for you to choose when
I needed more than you had left to give
But the difference between you and me is I realize I know nothing bout being free
So you find the bottom of each bottle and hate yourself because you don’t know why things
Pass you by
I’ve been wasting so much time and now that time is gone
All this waiting got us nothing except knowing we were wrong
And I don’t wanna spend my time looking through a window at your life
And loving you only to find
That I’ve been wasting so much time and now that time is gone
All this waiting got me nothing except knowing I was wrong
I’ve been wasting all my time and now that time is gone

Sittin at the station waiting on my baby’s train to come
Sea of lonely faces passin by
But his ain’t one
Longer that I sit and wait the more I think that he ain’t gonna come
So I think I’m gonna hop a train to Kansas
Raise a little hell and break some hearts
Yeah I think I’m gonna hop this train to Memphis
Find someone and have some fun
Gonna make him miss me when I’m gone
Sittin at the station waiting on my southbound train to come
Lost all I had playin for keeps and I been livin on the run
Life’s too short for makin plans so long as I am free I’m movin on
So I think I’m gonna hop a train to Texas
Raise a little hell and break some hearts
Yeah I think I’m gonna hop this train to Memphis
Find someone and have some fun
Skip this town before they know I’m gone
Well this gambling man seems just like the kind I’m lookin for
She’s just wild enough something like I’ve never seen before
Ooo you’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
Ooo you’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
So I think I’m gonna hop this train to Memphis
Raise a little hell and break some hearts
Yeah I think I’m gonna hop this train to Memphis
Find someone and have some fun
Gonna make you miss me when I’m gone

Love You Right

I put up a good fight but I don’t always win
Mistakes I’ve made I’ll make again
But for all my faults you’ll come to find
That I will always love you right
It’s been a hell of week and I’m feeling low
Not much went right not much to show
But you can count on me to come home tonight
Cause I will always love you right
Well I’ll never give up, when times get tough
I’ll take it on the chin till I’m black and blue
Whatever it takes to shelter you
I’ll be the one you can always trust
When you wake every morning I’ll be by your side
Ain’t nothing gonna break this heart of mine
And I will always love you right
Well I’ve made it bout money yeah I made it bout pride
But going down that road’s just a waste of time
Cause it’s all in the moments when we’re side by side
And I let it all go just to love you right
Love don’t happen overnight
We gotta take our time
I’ll be slow and steady
Well I’ll never give up, when times get tough
I’ll take it on the chin till I’m black and blue
Whatever it takes to shelter you
I’ll be the one you can always trust
When you wake every morning I’ll be by your side
Ain’t nothing gonna break this heart of mine
And I will always love you right

Do you remember what its like to light up your first cigarette?
I’ll be you swallowed too much smoke ‘cause you couldn’t catch your breath
Now you down a pack a day and half of one in bed at night
That little habit’s stuck with you for the rest of your whole life
Do you remember what its like the first time you took a drink
I’ll be the whiskey strung like hell, but went down smoother than you think
Well baby I’m like whiskey, I’m like nicotine
You’ve gotta give it a little time ‘for you get used to me
Baby I’m addicting, I know you’re craving me
Just give me one more shot I think you’ll see
That baby I’m like whiskey
I’ll make you feel invincible; I’ll make you feel alive
I’ll keep you coming back for more till you need me to survive
Don’t take me on the rocks oh no don’t try me watered down
You better take me straight up, and you better take me now
Well baby I’m like whiskey, I’m like nicotine
You’ve gotta give it a little time ‘for you get used to me
Baby I’m addicting, I know you’re craving me
Just give me one more shot I think you’ll see
That baby I’m like whiskey
Don’t take me on the rocks oh no don’t try me watered down
You better take me straight up, and you better take me now
Well baby I’m like whiskey, I’m like nicotine
You’ve gotta give it a little time ‘for you get used to me
Baby I’m addicting, I know you’re craving me
Just give me one more shot I think you’ll see
That baby I’m like whiskey

Drifter
04:56

They say if you ain’t got big plans
Then you’re a small man
So put your cards on the table
If you think you’ve gotta hand
You planned it all out
You left your hometown
The fire in your eyes was blinding you from the road you were going down
Well is this what you dreamed it be?
The soles of yer boots are worn thin, it’s getting hard to life your feet
But these miles ain’t gonna walk themselves, and you’re starting to think
“I’ll get where I’m going, or this’ll be the end of me”
I wake up each morning
And see a face in the mirror
It’s getting longer every day
Oh how the hell did I get here
Cause this ain’t what I dreamed it’d be
The soles of my boots are worn thin, getting hard to lift my feet
And these miles ain’t gonna walk themselves, and I’m starting to think
I’ll get where I’m going, or this’ll be the end of me
I used to think I’d know the end
Of this path that I’m headed
But every place it looks the same
As the last one when I left it
Well this ain’t what I dreamed it’d be
The soles of these boots are worn thin, it’s getting hard to lift my feet
And these miles ain’t gonna walk themselves, and I’m starting to think
I’ll get where I’m going, or this’ll be the end of me.

Long Gone
04:12

Take one last walk by this room
And run my hand along the wall
Catch one more glimpse of you
Before I am gone
Well I should be feeling something
That ties me to this place
But for everything that happened
I got no reason to stay
Cuz this ain’t home
And this ain’t how a heart should feel
And you can say you understand
But I know you never will
So don’t come looking for me
When you wake I’ll be long gone
Spent all this time worn and restless
But I’ve found some piece of mind
In knowing where I’m goin is closer to
Leavin the last time
Cuz this ain’t home
And this ain’t how a heart should feel
And you can say you understand
But I know you never will
So don’t come looking for me
When you wake I’ll be long gone
Long gone
Long gone
Cuz this ain’t home
And this ain’t how a heart should feel
And you can say you understand
But I know you never will
So don’t come looking for me
When you wake I’ll be long gone

You Don't Get It
03:29
|
|||
|
You don’t get it, you don’t get it
You can’t take a step back and see how ya fit in it
You play the world just like a fiddle but ya
still ain’t got a tune
You don’t get it, you don’t get it
You screwed it all up and you can’t admit it
If you even cared a little you’d be more just a fool
Steve’s got a taste for the finer things in life
He maxed out all his cards for all the fun money can buy
He ain’t got a job but that’s OK, he’s got another VISA in the mail today
And when he goes broke, my taxes will pay his way
You don’t get it, you don’t get it
You can’t take a step back and see how ya fit in it
You play the world just like a fiddle but ya
still ain’t got a tune
You don’t get it, you don’t get it
You screwed it all up and you can’t admit it
If you even cared a little you’d be more just a fool
Sally’s got a way of getting’ by
She’ll throw a fit or two and bat those pretty eyes
She acts like a 2 year old but has one at home, who don’t need a mama with nothin’ to show
Sally please don’t teach her what you know
You don’t get it, you don’t get it
You can’t take a step back and see how ya fit in it
You play the world just like a fiddle but ya
still ain’t got a tune
You don’t get it, you don’t get it
You screwed it all up and you can’t admit it
If you even cared a little you’d be more just a fool

Give It Up
05:03
|
|||
|
You’ve had enough
When things are going all wrong and you’re falling apart
And you can’t pick yourself up
Well honey I, I know you’re tired
You’ve seen more than you should and done more harm than good
And your guilt is driving you wild
But the world’s gonna turn if you do or don’t learn
And you can’t have it all if you don’t give some up
So give it up, give it all up
Give up your pride, give up your greed
Give up your hiding and lie here with me
You can lie here with me.
I know you think
You’re all alone
You’ve made your better you gotta lie and you ain’t even gonna try
To get up and find your way home
But the world’s gonna turn if you do or don’t learn
And you can’t have it all if you don’t give some up
So give it up, give it all up
Give up your pride, give up your greed
Give up your hiding and lie here with me
You can lie here with me.
So give it up, give it all up
Give up your pride, give up your greed
Give up your hiding and lie here with me
You can lie here with me.
