Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring Bound by wild desire I fell into a ring of fire I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down And the flames went higher And it burns, burns, burns The ring of fire The ring of fire I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down And the flames went higher And it burns, burns, burns The ring of fire The ring of fire The taste of love is sweet When hearts like ours meet I fell for you like a child Oh, but the fire went wild I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down And the flames went higher And it burns, burns, burns The ring of fire The ring of fire I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down And the flames went higher And it burns, burns, burns The ring of fire The ring of fire And it burns, burns, burns The ring of fire The ring of fire The ring of fire The ring of fire |

<< On The Road Again >>
--- Willie Nelson On the road again Just can’t wait to get on the road again The life I love is making music with my friends And I cant wait to get on the road again On the road again Goin’ places that I’ve never been Seein’ things that I may never see again And I can’t wait to get on the road again On the road again Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway We’re the best of friends Insisting that the world keep turning our way And our way, is on the road again Just cant wait to get on the road again The life I love is making music with my friends And I cant wait to get on the road again |

The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow
And so am I The workday passes like molasses in wintertime But it's July I'm gettin' paid by the hour and older by the minute My boss just pushed me over the limit I'd like to call it somethin' I think I'll just call it a day Chorus Pour me somethin' tall and strong Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve but I don't care It's 5 O'clock somewhere This lunch break is gonna take all afternoon half the night Tomorrow morning I know they'll be hell to pay Hey, but that's alright I ain't had a day off now in over a year My Jamican vacation's gonna start right here Get the phones for me You can tell 'em I just sailed away Chorus Pour me somethin' tall and strong Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve but I don't care It's 5 O'clock somewhere I could pay off my tab Pour myself in a cab And be back to work before 2 At a moment like this I can't help but wonder What would Jimmy Buffet do? Jimmy Buffet Funny you should ask that I'd say Pour me somethin' tall and strong Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve but I don't care Jimmy buffett and Alan Jackson together Pour me somethin' tall and strong Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve but I don't care Alan Jackson: He don't care... I don't care It's five o'clock somewhere Jimmy Buffett What time zone am I on? What country am I in? Alan Jackson It doesn't matter, it's five o'clock somewhere Jimmy Buffett It's always on 5 in margarittaville come to think of it Alan Jackson I heard that Jimmy Buffett You've been to there haven't ya? Alan Jackson Yes sir. Jimmy Buffett I seen your boat there Alan Jackson I've been to margarittaville a few times Jimmy Buffett Alright, well that's good. Alan Jackson I'm on my way back.

Right now he's probably slow dancin'
with a bleached-blond tramp, and she's probably getting frisky right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink cause she can't shoot whiskey... Right now, he's probably up behind her with a pool-stick, showin' her how to shoot a combo. And he don't know I dug my key into the side of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats... I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires... And maybe next time he'll think before he cheats. Right now, she's probably up singin' some white-trash version of Shania kareoke.. Right now, she's probably sayin' 'I'm drunk' and he's a thinkin' that he's gonna get lucky, Right now, he's probably dabbin'on 3 dollars worth of that bathroom cologne... Oh and he don't know ohhh... That I dug my key into the side of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats, I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires... And maybe next time he'll think before he cheats. I mighta saved a little trouble for the next girl, Cause the next time that he cheats... Oh, you know it won't be on me! Nooo... not on me... Cause I dug my key into the side of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats... I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires... Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats. Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats... ohh... before he cheats... ooooohhhhh.... |

Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving all your love to just one man You'll have bad times, and he'll have good times Doin' things that you don't understand But if you love him, you'll forgive him Even though he's hard to understand And if you love him, oh be proud of him 'Cause after all he's just a man. Stand by your man, give him two arms to cling to And something warm to come to When nights are cold and lonely. Stand by your man, and show the world you love him Keep giving all the love you can. Stand by your man. Stand by your man, and show the world you love him Keep giving all the love you can. Stand by your man. |

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Lets pretend we're together all alone I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low And you can tell your friend there with you he'll have to go Whisper to me tell me do you love me true Or is he holding you the way I do Though love is blind make up your mind I've got to know Should I hang up or will you tell him he'll have to go You cant say the words I want to hear While you're with another man Do you you want me answer yes or no Darling I will understand Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone Lets pretend that we're together all alone I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low And you can tell your friend there with you He'll have to go |

How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money I could do things my way But little they know that is so hard to find one rich man in ten with a satisfied mind Once I was waiting in fortune and fame Everything that I dreamed for to get a start in life's game But suddenly it's happened I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind Money can't buy back your youth when you're old Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold The wealthiest person is a proper at times compared to the man with a satisfied mind When life has ended my time has run out My friends and my loved ones I'll leave there's no doubt But there's one thing for certain when it comes my time I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By JACK RHODES, RED HAYES <i>Lyrics © CARLIN AMERICA INC, WINDSWEPT HOLDINGS LLC</i> |

Last night he called from Dallas he was havin' a beer at the Crystal Palace
He said honey you won't be alone for long I got to make just one more stop to pick up a ring in Little Rock And I'm gonna head this semi straight for home Fourteen wheels a whinin' four big headlights shinin' Him and that semi been away too long Hope he don't get stop from speedin' cause I've got everything he's needin' Waitin' for him right here at home He's got that big ole engine singin' singin' my favorite song And I know he's headin' my way rollin' down the highway Tonight my baby's comin' home ( guitar ) Ten thousand miles I've missed him it's been a week since I kissed him And forty truckstops since I held him tight A million chicks and he can get 'em they wanna make love and he won't let 'em The only thing he wants he'll get tonight He's got that big ole engine singin'... And I know he's headin' my way rollin' down the highway Tonight my baby's comin' home And I know he's headin' my way rollin' down the highway Tonight my baby's comin' home |

One word, that's all you said
Somethin' in your voice caused me, to turn my head Your smile, just captured me And you were in my future, far as I could see And I don't know how it happened, but it happens still You ask me if I love you, if I always will Well you had me from hello, I felt love start to grow The moment that I looked into your eyes, you owned me It was over from the start, you completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go I never even had a chance you know, you had me from hello Inside, I built a wall So high around my heart, I thought I'd never fall One touch, you brought it down Bricks of my defenses scattered on the ground And I swore to me I wasn't gonna love again The last time was the last time, I'd let someone in But you had me from hello, I felt love start to grow The moment that I looked into your eyes, you won me It was over from the start, you completely stole my heart and now you won't let go I never even had a chance you know, you had me from hello That's all you said Something in your voice caused me, to turn my head You had me from hello You had me from hello Girl I've loved you from, hello |

Back in my younger days, I used to go all night
Now I just stay at home, and everything is all right Back when I first met you, I used to live in a haze That was so long ago, back in my younger days I would do anything, just a stumbling fool It's a wonder I'm standing here, I've broken so many rules Now I dance with you every night, and still I'm so amazed Your love made a man of me, back in my younger days Oh, it doesn't seem that long ago You, you make it feel like the first time we made love And I ain't ever getting enough Well, well, well.... As I go through the photographs, I laugh and turn the page It's the ballad of me and you, from such an innocent age Talk about a dream come true, we reinvented a phrase It's better than it used to be, back in my younger days Back in my younger days, Back in my younger days It's better than it used to be, back in my younger days... --- Instrumental to fade --- |

Step right up, come on in
If you'd like to take the grand tour Of a lonely house that once was home sweet home I have nothing here to sell you, Just some things that I will tell you Some things I know will chill you to the bone. Over there, sits the chair Where she'd bring the paper to me And sit down on my knee And whisper oh, I love you But now she's gone forever And this old house will never Be the same without the love That we once knew. Straight ahead, that's the bed Where we'd lay in love together And Lord knows we had a good thing going here See her picture on the table Don't it look like she'd be able Just to touch me and say good morning dear. There's her rings, all her things And her clothes are in the closet Like she left them When she tore my world apart. As you leave you'll see the nursery, Oh, she left me without mercy Taking nothing but Our baby and my heart. Step right up, come on in... |

Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold

Why does the sea rush to shore? Don't they know it's the end of the world caus you don't love me anymore Why do the birds go on singing? Why do the stars glow above? Don't they know it's the end of the world it ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everythings the same as it was I can't understand no I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they know it's the end of the world it ended when you said good bye Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they Know it's the end of the world it ended when you said good bye |

I've been throwing horseshoes
Over my left shoulder I've spent most all my life Looking for that four-leafed clover But you ran with me, Chasing all my rainbows Honey I love you, too And that's the way love goes. That's the way love goes, babe That's the music God made For all the world to sing It never gets old; it grows Losing makes me sorry You say, |

Once I thought that love was something I could never do
Never knew that I could feel this much But this yearning in the deep part of my heart for you Is more than a reaction to your touch It's a perfect passion and I can't get enough [Chorus] The way you look, the way you laugh, The way you love with all you have, There ain't nothing 'bout you that don't do something for me The way you kiss, the way you cry, The way you move when you walk by There ain't nothing 'bout you (there ain't nothing bout you) That don't do something for me In my life I've been hammered by some heavy blows That never knocked me off my feet All you gotta do is smile at me and down I go And baby it's no mystery why I surrender Girl you got everything [Chorus] I love your attitude, your rose tattoo, your every thought Your smile, your lips and girl the list goes on and on and on [Chorus] The way you look, the way you laugh, The way you love with all you have, Your dance, your drive, you make me feel alive The way you talk, the way you tease By now I think you see There ain't nothing 'bout you that don't do something for me |

Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
I fell in love with a Mexican girl Nighttime would find me in Rosa's cantina Music would play and Felina would whirl Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina Wicked and evil while casting a spell My love was deep for this Mexican maiden I was in love, but in vain I could tell One night a wild young cowboy came in Wild as the West Texas wind Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing With wicked Felina, the girl that I loved So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden Down went his hand for the gun that he wore My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor Just for a moment I stood there In silence Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there I had but one chance and that was to run Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran Out where the horses were tied I caught a good one, it looked like it could run Up on its back and away I did ride Just as fast as I could from the West Texas town of El Paso Out to the badlands of New Mexico Back in El Paso my life would be worthless Everything's gone, in life nothing is left It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden My love is stronger than my fear of death I saddled up and away I did go Riding alone in the dark Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart And at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso I can see Rosa's Cantina below My love is strong and it pushes me onward Down off the hill to Felina I go Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys Off to my left ride a dozen or more Shouting and shooting, I can't let them catch me I have to make it to Rosa's back door Something is dreadfully wrong, for I feel A deep burning pain in my side Though I am trying to stay in the saddle I'm getting weary, unable to ride But my love for Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen Though I am weary, I can't stop to rest I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle I feel the bullet go deep in my chest From out of nowhere Felina has found me Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for One little kiss, then Felina good-bye |

Where love is fast like a turning page In a magazine, we've hardly seen The friends we used to know They disappear, they come and go Like the times we've had It's kind of sad Whatever happened to old fashioned love The kind that would see you through The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love The kind that would last through the years Through the trials Through the smiles Through the tears Today is all we've planned We say tomorrow we'll understand If it all should end We'd be alone again Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love The kind that would see you through The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love The kind that would last through the years Through the trials Through the smiles Through the tears For now the tenderness Has been replaced With something less And it's hard to find What we left behind Ohh, whatever happened to old fashioned love The kind that would see you through The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love The kind that would last through the years Through the trials Through the smiles Through the tears. |

The moon is full and my heart is why
I love to dance oh me, oh my Gonna have more fun than a tree in a coon Tonight's the dance of the cajun noon. Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. Pick ups and wagons 'round the river road shack Bonfires draw in a crowd out back Step through the door and I see my Sheri That's when I see her mamas eyes on me. Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. Guitar, a squeeze box, a fiddle, a bow Little band a-playin' every song they know Old woman sittin' there and yellin' for more My heart is willin', but my feet - they're so sore! Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. Once more we're waltzin' to Jolie Blond I lean in closer and Sheri responds Her mama's smilin' as we slip from the room To sit and stare at the cajun noon. Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon... |

The only the thing I see ahead is
Just the heat a rising off the road The rainbows I've been chasing keep on fading before I find my pot of gold But more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures that I'll ever know Are long ago and far behind and wrapped up in my memories of home Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace While she hung out the clothes, Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home Now the miles I put behind me ain't as hard as the miles that lay ahead And its much too late to listen to the words of wisdom that my daddy said The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads, My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home. Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace While she hung out the clothes, Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home Yeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads, My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home. |

Every mornin' at the mine you could see him arrive He stood six foot six and weighed two forty five Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip And everybody knew ya didn't give no lip to Big John. (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Nobody seemed to know where John called home He just drifted into town and stayed all alone He didn't say much, kinda quiet and shy And if you spoke at all, you just said "Hi" to Big John. Somebody said he came from New Orleans Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand Sent a Loosiana fellow to the Promised Land-Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Then came the day at the bottom of the mine When a timber cracked and men started cryin' Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast And everybody thought that they'd breathed their last-'cept John Through the dust and the smoke of this man-made hell Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well Grabbed a saggin' timber, gave out with a groan And like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone-Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove Then a miner yelled out "There's a light up above!" And twenty men scrambled from a would-be grave Now there's only one left down there to save-Big John With jacks and timbers they started back down Then came that rumble way down in the ground And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Now they never reopened that worthless pit They just placed a marble stand in front of it These few words are written on that stand At the bottem of this mine lies one hell of a man big john (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) |

Deep within my heart lies a melody
A song of old San Antone Where in dreams I live with a memory Beneath the stars all alone It was there I found beside the Alamo Enchantment strange as the blue up above A moonlit pass that only she would know Still hears my broken song of love Moon in all your splendor know only my heart Call back my rose, rose of San Antone Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling apart Speak once again of my love, my own. Broken song, empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone For that moonlit pass by the Alamo And Rose, my Rose of San Antone Deep within my heart lies a melody, A song of old San Antone Where in dreams I live with a memory Beneath the stars all alone It was there I found beside the Alamo Enchantment strange as the blue up above A moonlit pass that only she would know Still hears my broken song of love Moon in all your splendor know only my heart Call back my rose, rose of San Antone Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling apart Speak once again of my love, my own. Broken song, empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone For that moonlit pass by the Alamo And Rose, my Rose of San Antone |

Well, my daddy left home when I was three
And he didn't leave much to Ma and me Just this ole guitar and an empty bottle of booze Now, I don't blame him 'cause he run and hid But the meanest thing that he ever did Was before he left he went and named me Sue. Well, he musta thought that it was quite a joke, An' it got a lot of laughs from lots a folks Seems I had to fight my whole life through Some gal would giggle and I'd get red And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head I'll tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named Sue Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean My fist got hard and my wits got keen I roamed from town to town to hide my shame But I made me a vow to the Moon and stars I'd search the honky-tonks and bars And kill that man that gave me that awful name Well, it was Gatlinburg in mid-July And I'd just hit town and my throat was dry I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew In an old saloon on a street of mud There at a table dealin' stud Sat the dirty, mangy dog that named me Sue Well I knew that snake was my own sweet dad From a worn out picture that my mother had And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye He was big and bent and grey and old And I looked at him and my blood ran cold, and I said "My name is Sue! How do you do? Now you gonna die!" Yeah! That's what I told him Well, I hit him hard right between the eyes And he went down but to my surprise Came up with a knife an' cut off a piece o' my ear I busted a chair right across his teeth And we crashed through the wall and into the street Kickin' and a gougin' in the mud and the blood and the beer I tell ya, I've fought tougher men But I really can't remember when He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile Well, I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss He went for his gun but I pulled mine first He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile And he said, "Son, this world is rough And if a man's gonna make it he's gotta be tough And I know I wouldn't be there to help you along So I gave you that name and I said good-bye I knew you'd have to get tough or die And it's that name that helped to make you strong" Yeah! He said, "Now you just fought one hell of a fight And I know you hate me and ya got the right To kill me now and I wouldn't blame you if you do But you oughta thank me before I die For the gravel in your gut and the spit in the eye 'Cause I'm the son-of-a-bitch that named you Sue" Yeah, what could I do? What could I do? I got all choked up and threw down my gun Called him my Pa and he called me his son And I came away with a different point of view And I think about him now and then Every time I try and every time I win And if I ever have a son, I think I'm gonna name him Bill or George, anything but Sue! I still hate that name! |

Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my needs were strong would you lay with me Should my lips grow dry would you wet them dear In the midnight hour if my lips were dry Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand Wipe the blood away from my dying hand If I give my self to you Will you bathe with me in the stream of life When the moon is full will you bathe with me Will you still love me when I am down and out In my time of trials will you stand by me Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand Wipe the blood away from my dying hand If I give my self to you Would you lay with me in field of stone Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear Would you wet them dear In the stream of life |

{Waterloo, Waterloo Where will you meet your Waterloo? Every puppy has its day Everybody has to pay Everybody has to meet his Waterloo} Now, old Adam was the first in history With an apple he was tempted and deceived Just for spite the devil made him take a bite And that's where old Adam met his Waterloo [Chorus] Little General Napoleon of France Tried to conquer the world, but lost his pants Met defeat known as Bonaparte's retreat And that's when Napoleon met his Waterloo [Chorus] Now, a feller whose darling proved untrue Took her life, but he lost his too Now he swings where the little birdie sings And that's where Tom Dooley met his Waterloo [Chorus] |

I'd like to be in Charlie's shoes, that's what I always said
'Cause he had you and everything tied with a golden thread Then Charlie left and went away and when I got the news It wasn't long till I was walking 'round in Charlie's shoes Now I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore Walking back and forth across the floor The troubles that drove him away, I've got for company These nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me The greener grass that turned my head so swiftly did turn brown 'Cause every little dream I've built she's always tearing down I never knew old Charlie's shoes could have so many tacks Of disappointing sorrows and I wish he had 'em back 'Cause I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore Walking back and forth across the floor The troubles that drove him away, I've got for company These nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me |

When you feel like you're in love don't just stand there
When you see that moon above don't just stand there You gotta laugh and dance and sing you gotta get that gal a ring When you feel like you're in love don't just stand there When the moon is shinin' bright in your Saturday night You're not havin' any fun then maybe you're out with the wrong one When you feel like you're in love hold her tighter And the moon and stars above all shine brighter You gotta laugh and dance and sing you gotta get that gal a ring When you feel like you're in love don't just stand there [ steel - guitar ] (Repeat above lyrics) |

(Chorus) Take this job and shove it I ain't workin' here no more My woman done left and took all the reasons I was working for Ya better not try to stand in my way As I'm walkin', out the door Take this job and shove it I ain't workin' here no more Well, I been working in this factory for now on fifteen years All this time, I watched my woman drownin' in a pool of tears And I've seen alot of good folk die who had a lot of bills to pay I'd give the shirt right off of my back if I had the guts to say... (Chorus) The foreman, he's a regular dog The line boss, he's a fool He got a brand new flat top haircut Lord, he thinks he's cool One of these days, I'm gonna blow my top and that sucker, he's gonna pay Lord, I can't wait to see their faces when I get the nerve to say... (Chorus) Take this job and shove it! |

Last night all alone in a barroom
met a girl with a drink in her hand. She had ruby red lips, coal black hair and eyes that would tempt any man. Then she came and sat down at my table, and as she placed her soft hands in mine, I found myself wanting to kiss her for temptation was flowing like wine. And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride. Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside. Then we danced and she whispered, "I need you!" "Take me away from here and be my man." Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it: The reflection of my wedding band. And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on. Almost persuaded but your sweet love made me stop and go home. Last night all alone in a barroom met a guy with a drink in his hand. He had bay blue eyes, coal black hair and a smile that a girl understands. Then he came and sat down at my table, and as he placed his hands over mine, I found my self wanting to kiss him for temptation was flowing like wine. And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride. Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside. Then we danced and he whispered, "I need you!" "Let me take you away and be your man." Then I looked into his eyes and I saw it: The reflection of my wedding band. And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on.

Way up north to Alaska, way up north to Alaska North to Alaska, go north, the rush is on. North to Alaska, go north, the rush is on. Big Sam left Seattle in the year of '92. With George Pratt his partner, and brother Billy too. They crossed the Yukon River, and found a bonanza gold. Below that old white mountain, just a little southeast of Nome. Sam crossed the majestic mountains to the valleys far below. He talked to his team of huskies as they mushed on through the snow. With the Northern Lights a runnin' wild in the Land of the Midnight Sun. Yes Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of nineteen-one. Where the river is winding, big nuggets they're finding, North to Alaska, go north, the rush is on. (chorus) George turned to Sam with his gold in his hand. Said 'Sam you're a lookin' at a lonely, lonely man. I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land For one small band of golden place on sweet little Jenny's hand. 'Cause a man needs a woman to love him all the time. Remember Sam a true love is so hard to find. I'd build for my Jenny a honeymoon home. Below that old white mountain just a little southeast of Nome.' Where the river is windin', big nuggets they're findin' North to Alaska, we've gone north, the rush is on. North to Alaska, we've gone north, the rush is on. (chorus) |

They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain if you're looking for a wife
Cause Clifton Clovers has a pretty young daughter He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife Her tender lips are sweeter than honey and Wolverton Mountain protects her there The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clovers if a stranger should enter there All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain I want his daughter for my wife I'll take my chances and climb that mountain Though Clifton Clovers he might take my life Her tender lips are sweeter than honey... I'm going up on Wolverton Mountain it's too lonesome down here below It's just not right to hide his daughter from the one who loves her so Her tender lips are sweeter than honey... And I don't care about Clifron Clovers I'm gonna climb up on his mountain I'm gonna take the girl I love I don't care about Clifron Clovers I'm gonna climb up on that mountain and I'll get the one I love |

Sometimes she runs, sometimes she don't
More than once she's left me on the side of the road The older she gets, the slower we go But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio She needs a carburetor, a set of plug wires She's riding me around on four bald tires The wipers don't work and the horn don't blow But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio I've got sixteen speakers crossin' my back dash A little bobbin' dog watchin' everybody pass Dual attennas whippin' in the wind Lord, there ain't a country station that I can't tune in She ain't a Cadillac and she ain't a Rolls But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio I got stopped by a cop late last night Out-of-date tags and no tail lights He said, "I oughta run you in, but I'm lettin' you go Because there ain't nothin' wrong with your radio" Got the best lookin' gal in my hometown I asked her last time that I took her out Honey, tell me what it is that makes you love me so She said, "there ain't nothin' wrong with your radio" I've got sixteen speakers crossin' my back dash A little bobbin' dog watchin' everybody pass Dual attennas a-whippin' in the wind Lord, there ain't a country station that I can't tune in She ain't a Cadillac and she ain't a Rolls But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio No, she ain't a Cadillac and she ain't a Rolls But there ain't nothin' wrong with the radio |

Wake up in the morning
Get to living my life Making sure that I'm all that I can be Went to church on Sunday There was a moment that came I swear it was like the Lord spoke right to me [Chorus] So now I'm slowing it down and I'm looking around And I'm lovin' this town and I'm doing alright Ain't worried 'bout nothing except the man I wanna be I'm thinking it's time to be livin' the rhyme When I'm singing a song about nothing but right And it'd sure be nice if you would roll with me Saw a kid last winter only twenty years old Being laid to rest while his mom stood by his side Sure was hard to watch those tears roll down her face Made me think how we all just have our time [Chorus] Who knows what's up ahead I think I'd rather not know instead [Chorus] |
