Don't know how the bills will get paid
Hard to make it by on minimum wage.
Nobody I know got it made in the shade
Round and round and round we go
You better get up, lord you better get up, people don't you know
You better wake up, child, you better wake up get your feet back on the floor
If you feel your spirits sinking, let your worries go
You got to keep on rollin', down that road
Hearts get broke and love gets lost
Nobody worry about what its gonna cost
Who's gonna pay when the dice gets tossed
So it's round and round and round we go
You better to get up, better get up, people don't you know
You better to wake, child, you better wake up get your feet back on the floor
If you feel your spirits sinking, you let your worries go
You got to keep on rollin', down that road,
Better keep on rollin', down that road
It's round and round and round we go
You better to get up, lord you better get up, people don't you know
You go to wake up, child, you better wake and get your feet back on the floor
If you feel your spirits sinking, you let your worries go
You got to keep on rollin', down that road
You got to keep on rollin', down that road
You got to keep on rollin', down that road

Sitting in the glare of the neon smoke
Always mistaken for the light of hope
Mourning in a lonely woman's eyes
She's fallen one more time
Feeling the weight of the morning sky
I'm running again from another lie
From gray to midnight I've been through
Every broken-hearted hue
You may think I'm lying, but I swear that it's true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I've seen it all, in different shades of blue
Faded photo of a house for sale
Cold dark pewter of a casket rail
There's not too much these eyes ain't seen
Between the yellow and the green
You may think I'm lying, but I swear that it's true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I've seen it all, in different shades of blue
Every time we fell in love, breaking down and making up
The azure of a new sunrise, the shadow of a moonlit night
Standing in the ocean laughing, watching as the waves come crashing
Seeing colors that we never even knew
You may think I'm lying, but I swear that it's true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I've seen it all, in different shades of blue
You may think I'm lying, but I swear that it's true
You think hurt only comes in one color
Have I got news for you
I've seen it all, in different shades of blue
I've seen it all, in different shades of blue
I've seen it all

I see a rainbow of colors spread out before me
I follow winding lines down a desolate road
I really don't mind what they say about me
I got a long way to ride to get where I want to go
It's alright, baby it's okay, I'm gonna pack my bags I'll be on my way
I'm coming back home, coming back home.
No more worries about the past, I know with you it's meant to last
I'll never be alone, coming back home
Travlled many a mile, seen so many places
The faces they pass, walking down this road
I really don't mind what they say about me
I got a long way to ride to get where I want to go
It's alright, baby it's okay, I'm gonna pack my bags I'll be on my way
I'm coming back home, coming back home.
No more worries about the past, I know with you it's meant to last
I'll never be alone, coming back home
I'd drive about a million miles
Just to get to see you smile
It's alright, baby it's okay, I'm gonna pack my bags I'll be on my way
I'm coming back home, I'm coming back home.
No more worries about the past, I know with you it's meant to last
I'll never be alone, I'm coming back home
It's alright, baby it's okay, I'm gonna pack my bags I'll be on my way
I'm coming back home, coming back home.
No more worries about the past, I know with you it's meant to last
I'll never be alone, coming back home
I'm coming back home
I'm coming back home

My mother was just 21, all alone with a son of gun she roamed
Spent some nights sleeping in our car, cheap hotels and seedy bars
As it came to pass so was my road
She's a good-hearted woman with a heart of gold that always understands
That good hearted woman is making life the best way she can
My grandaddy said when I was 9, boy I raised you on that the Southern pride and so
Taught me how to fish and how to fight, when I was wrong and what was right
But the greatest story that he ever told
Was of a good-hearted woman with a heart of gold that always understands
That good hearted woman is making life the best way she can
Pretty wife and fancy cars, I've paid my dues and got some scars to say
There ain't a thing that I regret and I hope to laugh at all of this
When I'm sitting on my front porch old and gray
With my good-hearted woman with a heart of gold that always understands
My good hearted woman is making life the best way she can
My good hearted woman sure loves a hard-headed man

I've been trying to leave but my heart doesn't want to
Deep inside I know you're no good for me
What the hell am I trying to hold on to, when I know you
You're just another picture in a pile of memories
If you want to go I think it's time for you to leave
I ain't gonna let you take another piece of me
Now there ain't much left but my torn up pride
But if you want to take it
Oh baby, all that's left is lonely, broke, and wasted.
I picked you up when you didn't have a prayer
At the time I just needed someone there
It was never in my plans to love you, now I do
What a shame it had to all end up this way
If you want to go I think it's time for you to leave
I ain't gonna let you take another piece of me
Now there ain't much left but my torn up pride
But if you want to take it
Oh baby, all that's left is lonely, broken
I've wasted too much time
Just hanging on your line
There's not enough whiskey on my shelf
To make me think that you're someone else
Now there ain't much left but my torn up pride
But if you want to take it
Oh baby all that's left is lonely, broke, and wasted
Lonely, broke, and wasted
. . .

Tell me who knows what
Gonna happen today
Weatherman said that the sun is shining but all I see is pouring rain
And the preacher keeps saying
That we're out of time
If you tune in again next week then they'll tell you everything is fine
It's hard to know what's going on
When the right ones get it wrong
Tell me who knows what
Who knows what way is up
How much is too much
Hard to know sometimes just who to trust
Who knows what's going on
How much right they say is wrong
Tell me who knows what
Who knows what
A dollar means today
You can lay it down on the roll of a dice and you can put your money in the bank
You spend everything
To have everything
Then you sit around, around my friend and watch it going down the drain
You wake up and its gone
And you don't know what went wrong
Tell me who knows what
Who knows what way is up
How much is too much
Hard to know sometimes just who to trust
Who knows what's going on
How much right they say is wrong
Tell me who knows what
Who knows what way is up
How much is too much
Hard to know sometimes just who to trust
Who knows what's going on
How much right they say is wrong
Tell me who knows what
Tell me who knows what
Yeah tell me who knows what
Baby who knows what
I do know what

Just like little children fight
This side's yours and that side's mine
Nothing more but in between
Broken hearts and shattered dreams
We don't all live the same lives, but we all sleep under the same skies
Now a change is gonna come, I can feel it in the wind today
It's a long, long road back from nowhere
We fight like hell sometimes, other days we don't care
It's a long, long road back from nowhere
A change is gonna come, I can feel it in the wind today
Everybody thinks they see, what is wrong with you and me
When we finally understand, not one man has got the plan
We don't all live the same lives, but we all sleep under the same skies
Now a change is gonna come, I can feel it in the wind today
It's a long, long road back from nowhere
We fight like hell sometimes, other days we don't care
It's a long, long road back from nowhere
A change is gonna come, I can feel it in the wind today
Asking every child, woman, and man
To join me here in the promised land
It's a long, long road back from nowhere
We fight like hell sometimes, other days we don't care
It's a long, long road back from nowhere
A change is gonna come, I can feel it in the wind today

Sweet little country girls, smiling back at me
Sweet like Iowa corn, in the summertime breeze
Like to see wildflowers, in the midday sun
Stretching out like a field of dreams
Where a southern boy wants to run
Wild roses, make me feel alright
Wild roses, dancing in the pale moonlight
Looking out all around me, what a beautiful sight
I see a lot of wild roses in here tonight
I'd like to get tangled, caught up in your thorns
Feel the pain of leaving, let my heart be torn,
On a long lost highway, where the moon it shines
And the hint of sweet perfume
I'll be thinking of you while the road's unwinding
Wild roses, make me feel alright
Wild roses, dancing in the pale moonlight
Looking out all around me, what a beautiful sight
I see a lot of wild roses in here tonight
What really moves me, it always gets to me
Is how all your beauty is so untamed
Wild roses, make me feel alright
Wild roses, dancing in the pale moonlight
Looking out all around me, what a beautiful sight
I see a lot of wild roses in here tonight
I see a lot of wild roses in here tonight

Face to face, eye to eye
You say you love me, then you bleed me dry
You try to make me like it, you know I can't deny
You call a spade a spade baby, if it so applies
Now your heartbeat's ticking in me like a bomb that's ready to blow
Did you see what you came to see, go ahead enjoy the show
Take your time if you're so inclined, jump on here with me
Get on and ride it in the fast lane honey
Won't you get on and ride, won't you get on and ride it now
Every day, I walk another mile
You find me guilty, but don't give me a trial
If that's the case, baby I don't mind it
This time around girl, it's your turn to ride yeah
Now your heartbeat's ticking in me like a bomb that's ready to blow
Did you see what you came to see, go ahead enjoy the show
Take your time if you're so inclined, jump on here with me
Get on and ride it in the fast lane honey,
Won't you get on and ride it, won't you get on and ride it now
Get on and ride
Now show me what you got
Now your heartbeat's ticking in me like a bomb that's ready to blow
Did you see what you came to see, go ahead enjoy the show
I don't mind if you take your time, jump on here with me
Get on ride it in the fast lane honey,
Won't you get on and ride it, won't you get on and ride it now
Now your heartbeat's ticking in me like a bomb that's ready to blow
Did you see what you came to see, go ahead enjoy the show
Take your time if you're so inclined, jump on here with me
Get on ride and it in the fast lane honey,
Won't you get on and ride it, won't you get on and ride it now

I hate this time
Cant even calculate easy
Dont know where I'm now
I know that I'm leaving
Down the dusty road
Its been calling me for years
But it just shook his hand
Mama was fighting back the tears
She said time to go
There's nothing left believing
When you know you know
Just stand by that feeling
You can climb the highest mountain
Where no one has ever gone
On the crowded city side walk
You might find yourself alone
In the middle of the desert
Anywhere the wind blows
So I will You Take Yourself With You
Where ever you'll go
Now crowd's ticking in the city life
those rolling hairs
Man the early nights
made this country boy thrilled
But it never felt right
Like I'll ever fit in
So I kept moving on
Now its time to road again
When it's time to go
There's nothing left to leaving
When you know you know
It's like the changing of the season
You can climb the highest mountain
Where no one has ever gone
On the crowded city side walk
You might find yourself alone
In the middle of the desert
Anywhere the wind blows
So I will You Take Yourself With You
Where ever you'll go
I found out the hard way
and I made my own mistakes
But my daddy's word were with me
Yet they're still far away
. . .
