Lyrics:
Hello my friends
So happy to see you again
I was so alone
All by myself I just couldn't make it
Have you heard baby what's the wind blown round
you
I need to love you, girl
I'll be your water
When your well goes dry
cnd your good loving man, honey
Til the day I die
I'll be your shelter, yes, I
Hello my friends
So happy to see you again
I was so alone
All by myself I just couldn't make it
Have you heard baby what's the wind blown round
get up, get up, get up
I'ma get up in your mind right now
Make you feel like dying right now
I'ma make you pray to God
To the good old Lord for
Now look here, my good man!
GUARD: I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed
animal food trough water! I fart in your general direction!
don't give your money to that lyin cheatin man
Cold baloney and I'm home by myself
Well I'm five years old and it sure is cold
Mama's out cookin'
And she cruised through the hamburger stand now
Seems she forgot all about the library
Like she told her old man now
And with the radio blasting
My old man is a bad man, but
I can't deny the way he holds my hand
And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
an earful of trash
And my old lady, she just don't understand
Why those floozies got their hands on her man
And my poor Daddy, he still don't understand
a while
And I say baby let me love you
A small town store with an old wooden floor
The old man inside sellin' dry goods
Has a smile on his face
Don't
and the yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the mud below my feet you can't raise Cain back up when he's in defeat
The night they drove old Dixie down and all
heard a blind man screamin', say
Now there goes a sight for my sore eyes
There goes a sight for my sore eyes
Now there goes a sight for my sore eyes
What
loved by a real good man
I've learned what I've learned
By finding the right way in all of my wrong turns
I love what I love
I ain't afraid to say it
no, it couldn't be
I know my uncle, he's as honest as me
Hey now, I'm as honest as a Denver man can be, that's right
One of them cowboys, he starts
loose by the old bossman
Said he's out the door, headed for the neon lights
Oh, he's gonna need someone to pick up the tab
Talk it out, maybe split
jonny go go
go johnny go go
go johnny go go
go johnny go go
go, johnny be good
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
and sit beneath the tree by
Willie again
Never smoke weed with Willie again
My party's all over before it begins
He pour me some Old Whiskey River my friend
But I'll never smoke
a half moon
Cause you'll catch me running out the little girls' bathroom
Chewing on Good and Plenties
Got my gamble on at lunch pitching pennies
Yo
the chase
And I'm running through the mountains with his bride
And I got his wooden leg here by my side
I'm a three-legged man with a two-legged woman
Being
The switch-man wave his lantern goodbye and good day as we went roling through
Billboards and truck stops pass by the grievous angel
And now I know just what I
your well goes dry
And your good loving man, honey
Til the day I die
I'll be your shelter, yes, I will
Whenever it rains
And like Dr.Feelgood
I
You should see all the lights in our old neighborhood
I never thought that little street could ever look so good
I knew that she'd be busy, it's
Yeah
What's up, baby?
I ain't tryna do nothing but get my grown man on
I ain't tryna hurt you
Only if you want me to
Haha
Yeah, something like
'em again, ain't nobody gonna mind
Here's to the good old boys, the guitars that made the noise
And all the girls that we annoyed, and the ones we
