Gone Too Long 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Way back home from where I came Since so long I've been away Feeling like I've got my start I'll run until I get too far Keep on riding cause all that jive is a waste of time My time that's flying Never knowing where I'm going Been gone too long Where the cold winds blowing on me Well I got one thing to do No matter where I'm going to I can't stop singing the blues I think I hear it call me to Way back home from where I came I had to go I could not stay Feeling like I've got my start I'll run until I get too far Keep on riding cause all that jive Is a waste of time My time that's flying Never knowing where I'm going Been gone too long Where the cold winds blowing on me Well they hear the sound But we can't be found Well they hear the sound But we can't be found Well they hear the sound but we can't be found I said well they hear the sound but we can't be found Well they hear the sound but we can't be found When they hear the sound gonna look around

Everybody drink tell me what you think About the rock n' roll band from the south that swings Well I know that we're groovin' When I see you movin' Hey baby what's your name I wanna hear you say Well them boys on the stage really know how to play Well a good time and lovin' Is all we need In a paradise of fools Where nothin's free You got it all wound up In your head Now it's time to let it out instead Rock n' rollin' Ain't no place I'd rather be than Rock n' rollin' Have a good time Have a good time Well just what I need For my money please Is a time to get me feelin alright You got a lot of nothin' need a little bit of somethin' People say it's what we're playing tonight How come the man in the news always singing the blues Damn why can't I hear nothin' good from you? You gotta know it was intended when they've stolen your soul So I sold it for a good time and rock n' roll Rock n' rollin' Ain't no place I'd rather be than Rock n' rollin' Listen what he sings with the guitar strings Rock n' rollin' Gonna look around when they hear the sound of Rock n' rollin' Have a good time Have a good time Everybody drink tell me what you think About the rock n' roll band from the south that swings Rock n' rollin' Ain't no place I'd rather be than Rock n' rollin' Listen what he sings with the guitar strings Rock n' rollin' Gonna look around when they hear the sound of Rock n' rollin' Have a good time Have a good time

Old Dixie Highway 04:26
lyrics
buy track
Making pay down where Sweat and rain don't Separate themselves From each others names Now I was not made there But I sure was raised there Nah that old 17 was a nasty fiend but Now these things could be Never more clear to me nah I don't have to many days I can say that I remember Please believe not so easily That's a lot of faith To get thrown away nah That old beauty queen Was a nasty fiend but Now these things could be Never more clear to me nah Well I wish I could Leave it all behind Leave this old lonely land And Find my peace of mind Well my baby looks And she says to me Well you don't just waste it You better make it Now that old 17's Livin' half his life inside a dream Where he used to be On Daytona streets Or getting lost where dead ends meet I ain't runnin' out when I'm runnin' down Dixie and her little highway

Chains A' Draggin' 03:02
lyrics

Johnny's on the back porch swingin' Got his mind made up with a bottle of jack He's gonna make things even Got a real good reason that's a matter of fact Man they really did him dirty now after that there's no coming back Only said what he needs don't look for me I'm finally free But down the street Folks get to their feet Try and find their needs Wind up feeling like you and me Now I don't know but I Once was told By a cloud smoke Just let go Is what she starts to say As he walks away Now them chains are week Draggin' baby finally free Can't you see Them chains are weak Ain't draggin' me I'm finally free Let 'em' keep talkin' Some folks like to go downtown Some get lost don't want to be found We can all do what we choose It's not up to me if it matters to you So light your fuse and Drink your booze It's fun to lose Sometimes we do Have to set things straight Or just let them be And them chains will break Draggin' baby finally free Can't you see Them chains are weak Ain't draggin' me I'm finally free Let 'em' keep talkin'

Better Than Love 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Lookout So won't you tell us what it's all about Got to wonder what it means Ain't got nothing here to keep me round And all that was ain't what it seems Hey yeah Whatch what you say Maybe I'll make your day I don't have to say too much Just step on back cause here it comes It's better than love They don't know just what we've got I'm giving up I can't find a better way to say Our fortune teller has been finally found He always hides from what he sees Just know that everything's coming around It's coming right back to you and me. (Yes it is) I'll Tell you now we're gonna find out What it is, that keeps us beggin for another one of these nights I think I might have finally found my little bit of something' I think I feel it comin' Oh it's better than love They don't know just what we've got So give it up So much more than what they thought I'm telling you what Bringing on just what you want Can't get enough But I know That by the end of the night We're doing what we like It's a whole lot better than wasting time

Just a Memory 04:51
lyrics
buy track
Just a memory Just a memory Was it a dream Or just a memory There's you and me Along we walked Never thought of it all The nights we shared together Some would never believe And I been wonderin round I keep what's left for me Just a memory Just a memory Now faces change I find it strange Looking back at it all And I've been wonderin where you've been You never bother to call I think of all those times we never said goodbye I hold it inside But now your mommas on the phone She's calling you home Your daddy's on his way He's comin down the road Who would ever say They had come and gone Here's your yesterday But your hangin on Do you try to wait Do you fly away Away So they say it's not that bad It's better than what we had But to us it seems those days Were played away on every stage Everyone will have their time When the sun comes through there blinds And I'll have mine You'll remember me As just a memory Possibly a memory Possibly just a memory

Whoa Yeah This love is stronger Than of any one I've known You're getting closer now I'll never let you go I can see you smile Like magic to a child Making you believe And helping you to see Just what I know Now I can tell you one thing That you'll never find A love so lonely now As long as you are mine This love is power And I'm sure it's gonna grow I've got to tell you babe It's more than was before You sit and wondering How far you think I'll go You ask the question baby But you really know Think about it babe You got to live until you don't That's what I know Yeah Oh Oh Yeah Babe you walked out that door Yeah Whoa you're comin' back for more

Final Ride 04:02
lyrics
buy track
Take a look just step inside Maybe once but never twice Peelin' down an empty road that's runnin' through my mind Again My only friend Our final ride might be tonight It's getting hard to keep my sight But I'll never reach the end Until then I try to keep my head, it's much too fast Try to slow me down do your best Oh ain't no burnin' up its cold as hell yeah We don't really mind if you can tell Oh it's just as well No we don't need no disbelief There's one of them in every scene A different town another street We're gonna turn some heads Again My only friend Our final ride might be tonight You never know when it's your time I'm hanging on the edge Again I try to keep my head it's much too fast (much too fast) While they're foolin' 'round but it won't last Ain't no burning up it's cold as hell yeah We don't really mind if you can tell Oh it's just as well Looking back it's not too clear Just where I've been or why I'm here But what I find will come with time It's close ahead we're just behind There are minds we cannot change But you and I both see the same It's hard to stay when it's getting cold I know I've got to go I try to keep my head it's much too fast Try to slow me down do your best Ain't no burnin' up it's cold as hell yeah We don't really mind it's just as well Oh if you can tell Well, well, well Can you tell? Can you tell? Can you tell? Can you tell? Well, well, well
