Serendipity

I was a restless boy catching crawdads

Didn’t even realize the world was sad

Before that Freebird had flown

Before I was out on my own

 

I met old Waylan in ‘76

I must have learned some of them tricks

Right before that freebird had flown

I was fixing to head out on my own

 

I never heard of serendipity

Shadows of the past have been talking to me

A long time since the Freebird’s flown

I’m still out here on my own

 

I was a restless boy catching crawdads

Didn’t even realize this world was sad

If you’re going through Hell keep going

That’s what Winston Churchill said

Sound of this Town

This hot day is almost into sundown

The wind sends it’s own goodbye

I don’t know why

I’m smiling in spite of all this running ‘round

Guess it’s because I like the sound of this town

Well the river separates the memories

And the wheat dances for harvest moon

And it’s too soon to understand if I’ll even be around

But you know I like the sound of this town

Well the children laugh so free and easy

With the lemonade for only half a dollar

And the collar on the local preacher man

Is white against the farmer tan so brown

Lord knows I love the sound of this town

 

When the moon melts into the morning

Gather all you would like for the road

And the load is lonely and you hear the rooster crow

At the edge of town

Don’t cry you’ll ruin the sound of this town

Don’t cry your lonely sound of this town

Little Brother

Little brother, I still worry about you

You learned how to fly and to run

When you fall from up high with a broken wing

Call for me I’ll show you how to run again

 

Little brother I still love the way you color

You don’t stay between the lines that’s alright

But don’t fight the soft light of the melancholy days

Just look my way; I’ll show you how to laugh again

Though I’m older you are bolder than I’ll ever be

Don’t you dare quit on me ‘cause I am still your big brother

Don’t forget that

Girl Down in Dixie

Well you were my change of season

Waiting on a warmer sky

Trying to figure every reason

And ascertain the where’s and whys

 

One thing I’m sure of is confusion

Despite all that I’m feeling fine

So hey, hey girl down in Dixie

My sun is setting in Mountain Time

 

I got spun out in Printer’s Alley

I was holding back my lies

Truth came to me in your arms

And reflected in both our eyes

 

One thing I’m sure of is confusion

Despite all that I’m feeling fine

So hey, hey girl down in Dixie

My sun is setting in Mountain Time

 

So save a kiss if you want me

Let it go west on the wind

And if you fly east over that big sea

Look at the Blue Mountains

and remember your friend

 

One thing I’m sure of is confusion

Despite all that I’m feeling fine

So hey, hey girl down in Dixie

My sun is setting in Mountain Time

So hey, hey girl down in Dixie

My sun is setting in Mountain Time

You are the change in my season

I was waiting on a warmer sky

Callin’ My Maker

Calling to my maker

Help me get on down that road

 

Call my dear old mother to tell her I’m coming back

Well I hope she ain’t gone up yonder

While my train ran off the track

 

Callin to my maker help me get on down the road

Callin to my maker help me get on down the road

 

There’s a woman claims she loves me

I wonder if she’ll cry for me

Somewhere up above me

I pray that there’s a space for me

 

Oh whiskey took all my smiles and surely poisoned my blood

I’ve searched so many miles I’ve forgotten where I stood

 

I’m calling to my maker help me get on down the road

I’m calling to my maker help me get on down the road

 

I’m calling to my maker help me get on down the road

I’m calling to my maker help me get on down the road

Calling to my maker help me get on down the road

The Way You Look at Me

The way you looked at me

Stirs waters deep down in my soul

Puts me under your control

The way you look at me

The way you look at me

 

See the lightening hear the thunder

Smokey eyes bring me under

The way you look at me

 

Hold me soft then hold me tight

I need you so bad tonight

If my morning sun

Oh it should not come

I pray last thing that I see

Is the way you look at me

 

There’s angels up above me

Dance in your eyes and I see my love

The way you look at me

The way you look at me

 

Stirs waters deep down in my soul

Gets me underneath your control

The way you look at me

Las Vegas

In this land of decadence in the arms of razor fence

Between the desert and the cactus the devil set up practice

The innocence only give up half before the replications of the golden calf

The true addicted leave it all; the math against them brings a fall

Well it’s glamorous, promiscuous and oh so obvious,

Welcome to Las Vegas

 

There’s a girl dancing from your town she used to drag the boys around

She’s a big thing now on the Strip but her nose has got a cocaine drip

She could be a mom anywhere if you took the lights from her hair

She has baby names underneath her breath but most nights she’s just scared to death

 

Well it’s glamorous, promiscuous and oh so obvious,

Welcome to Las Vegas

 

Martin had a magic show but his heart made his hands too slow

He drives a shuttle to the airport dreams of owning a fishing resort

He going back to the Northern before his pace maker just up and breaks

I think he’s going to be alright if he don’t die at the next stoplight

 

Well it’s glamorous, promiscuous and it’s oh so obvious,

Welcome to Las Vegas

 

Well it’s glamorous, promiscuous and oh so obvious, it’s always obvious

Welcome to Las Vegas

The Distance

When you’re lost out west

And the place you like the best is in the distance

And the things you need ain’t down the path you lead

But in the distance

Follow the sun and get back on course

Saddle up boys and get on your horse

Go the distance

Hey cover the distance

 

When you get back east in the zone you like the least

Go the distance

The boys out there they never treat you fair

You learn the difference

Follow the sun and get back on course

Saddle up and get on your horse

Go the distance

Go the distance

 

That woman that really loves you

She might be thinking of you

In the distance

So you’re riding the wind

She might love you once again

In the distance

 

Follow the sun and get back on course

Saddle up boy get on your horse

Cover the distance

Hey go the distance

Hey go the distance

Somewhere in Another World

Somewhere in the other world

Someone’s looking down

See my wheels going around and round and round

Now I’ve broken wings before I learn to fly

Want to take an axe and chop a piece out of the sky

 

Old man cookie giver

Can’t remember his name

Before my time he handed me my name

Somewhere in the other world

He’s waiting for his son

He’s keeping track of all the things I’ve done

 

God has your number

I’ts written on your face walk your own path

Before it’s too late

Somewhere in the other world someone looking down

See my wheels going round and round and round

Somewhere in the other world

Oh somewhere in the other world

She Ain’t My Friend

I met a girl

Hell I’d met her before

Can’t remember when

Must have been a couple years in

Down in Nashville

A glaze over my eye

Now once again

Well now I met her again

 

But she ain’t my friend

Well she ain’t my friend

But she drives me wild

She ain’t my friend

Well she ain’t my friend

She sure drives me wild

 

Snow and white misery

Dreams that don’t go away

You find yourself lost

In the middle of another day

 

You don’t reckon why

And you don’t reckon when

One thing you’re sure of

Is she’ll come up again

 

But she ain’t my friend

She ain’t my friend

But she drives me wild

 

She ain’t my friend

She ain’t my friend

But she sure drives me wild

 

She ain’t my friend

Ah she ain’t my friend

She sure drives me wild

She ain’t my friend

She ain’t my friend
