The cold wind burns, up on this mountain.
The cold wind speaks your wreched name. x2
The hell fire tempts my worried soul
The hell fire's flames you lit for me. x2
Am I alone now?
Am I alone?
Am I alone now?
I don't think, I ever was.
The river saves me from the darkness
The river cooled down my aching head. x2

Gotta girl in Louisiana, gotta daughter in Tennessee
Everything in this world seems to get the best of me
Left my Paw in Tuscaloosa, he died down by the tracks
He only wanted the best things in life, but God seemed to take 'em back.
So take me down to the river, take me down there by the bank
Just tell me who's in charge so I'll know who to thank
Take me down to the river, or lay me down by the lake
Lemme go clear my mind don't know how long it'll take
I's born with this guitar in my hand, been told it won't take me far
Don't care what y'all got to say, I'm gonna keep on playin' these bars
Heard Muscle Shoals has got the swampers, but I don't give a damn
They don't know nothin' 'bout this boy from a just west of Birmingham
So take me down to the river, take me down there by the bank
Just tell me who's in charge so I'll know who to thank
Take me down to the river, or lay me down by the lake
Lemme go clear my mind don't know how long it'll take
So take me down to the river, let me lay down by the bank
Just tell me who's in charge so I'll know who to thank

Cigarettes on the console
Blue jeans on her hips
Lips taste just like moonshine
Don't know where we gonna go, don't really care
Skynard on the stereo
Tank all filled up
Headed out to God-knows-where
Ain't never gonna get there, never gonna stop.
Gonna ride out to the levee. Gonna watch it break
Ride out to the levee, gonna take our time.
Ride out to the levee, gonna...let it ride.
Roll up the top when the sun goes down
Park up on the hill
Down and out and up to no good
We gonna watch it rainin', Lord keep on rainin'
Gonna ride out to the levy. Gonna watch it break
Ride out to the levy, gonna take our time.
Ride out to the levy gonna...let it ride.
If it keeps on rainin'
If it keeps on rainin'
If it keeps on rainin'
Lord, keep on rainin'
Cryin' and prayin'. Weepin' and moanin'.
Cryin' and prayin'. Weepin' and moanin'.
Cryin' and prayin'.
Weepin' and moanin'.
Gonna ride out to the levy. Gonna watch it break
Ride out to the levy, gonna take our time.
Ride out to the levy gonna...let it ride.

Riding down highway 78
Just past Leo & Suzie's place
There's a little bar y'all all know
You won't admit it, but I know you wanna go
To Wesley's Boobie Trap
Wesley's Boobie Trap
You know that's where the party is at
Wesley's Boobie Trap
They got high heeled women, and cold beer
Bring plenty of one's and come on over here
They got a party in the back and business in the front
Everybody here knows exactly what you want
Here at Wesley's Boobie Trap
Wesley's Boobie Trap
You know that's where the party is at
Wesley's Boobie Trap
And it don't matter if she's only got one leg
It don't matter if she only has 4 teeth
Cause when you bang your block of wood she knows she doing goodG
And she'll ask you to buy her a drink
Here at Wesley's Boobie Trap
Wesley's Boobie Trap
You know that's where the party is at

Well the train pulled in. Its a quarter to ten,
And I don't think I can go back home again
Spent my last dollar, on a cup a joe
Where I'm gonna live I'm afraid I don't know
Cause I'm here in Nashville Just trying to make it
Here in Nashville Don't know how long I can take it
I just wanna see my name in lights
Don't care if I have to scream and fight
I just wanna be right here in Nashville
Well I'll do a little Ryman I'm gonna go out Waylon
Make some Cash and pray that I ain't failin'
They say the girls are something else out on Broadway
But looking at them just gives me the blues
Cause I'm here in Nashville Just trying to make it
Here in Nashville Don't know how long I can take it
I just wanna see my name in lights
Don't care if I have to scream and fight
I just wanna be right here in Nashville
Well I'll do a little Ryman I'm gonna go out Waylon
Make some Cash and pray that I ain't failin'
They say the girls are something else out on Broadway
But looking at them just gives me the blues
Cause I'm here in Nashville Just trying to make it
Here in Nashville Don't know how long I can take it
I just wanna see my name in lights
Don't care if I have to scream and fight
I just wanna be right here in Nashville

Moving on Down the Line

She said, I told you once and I'll tell you again
Don't try to be my savior, you ain't died for none of my sins
You better get moving on down the line, move on down the line
She said, I love you, I think you already know
But you treat me so bad its like you wished I'd go
That's why you gotta move on down the line, move on down the line
I ain't another floozie in your string of pearls
I ain't gonna be one of those nameless girls
I've always been your biggest fan
Just before you decided to stop being a man
She said, don't follow me. Don't you even call
You just don't wanna be alone you don't care for me at all
I'm gonna be movin' on down the line, I'm movin' on down the line
You been wastin', oh wastin' all my time, wastin' all my time

Moonlight

It’s so late at night; what do you wanna do?
Ain’t nobody here except for me and you.
Another drink? Let’s have one more round.
See what kind of poison they've got lying around.
Can we go dancin in the moonlight?
Can we go dancin in the dark?
Can we go dancin wherever we want?
Can we go dancin alone?
It’s been a long time; how have you been?
You know I think about you every now and then.
Hope you’re doing alright. Hope you’ve got some time.
I promise everything is gonna turn out just fine...
If we go dancin in the moonlight.
If we go dancin in the dark/
If we go dancin wherever we want.
If we go dancin alone.
It’s so late at night. Do you think that it’s through.
Still nobody here except for me and you.
Call a cab. We’ll call it a night.
I’m sure we’ll meet again if the time is right.
So we go dancin in the moonlight.
So we go dancin in the dark/
So we go dancin wherever we want.
And we go dancin alone.

I made my way to Memphis
I didn't get too far
I'm hitchhiking my way back to your heart
I made my way to Memphis
Maybe I went to far
Walking down Beale searching for your heart
Maybe I can make it better
Between you and me
Maybe I'll get it together
But I know you can't wait to see You've left it up to me
I'm making my way outta Memphis
You told me I went to far
I'm hitchhiking my way out of your heart

Back on the Horse
03:46

Well I don’t know where to go
After all these long, long roads
Seems like it wouldn’t be so tough
To get back on that horse and ride
Well the Lone Ranger did all the right things.
but I don’t think that can be me
I question every path I take
unsure of the decisions I make
But I'm gotta get back on that horse again.
I gotta learn to trust all my friends
I gotta get back on that horse and ride.
I just pray I’ve still got a little time.
Well I know I ain’t Wild Bill
but I’m holding a dead man’s hand
Doomed to live with regret.
I betcha I’ll lose every bet.
But I'm gotta get back on that horse again.
I gotta learn to trust all my friends
I gotta get back on that horse and ride.
I just pray I’ve still got a little time.
What I want written on my tombstone
is here lies a man who was allowed to fail
He didn’t do everything right
but what he did allowed him to survive
Cause he got back on his horse again
and he learned to trust all his friends
He got back on his horse to ride.
Thank God he had a little more time.

The Well

Well I took all my troubles, and I threw them in the well
Standing in the silence, feeling sorry for myself
Wishin' she would care
Knowin' that she'll never be there for me
I've been dreamin' about falling like that penny in the well
Drowning all my sorrows to the depths I plunge myself
Prayin' for my soul
Wondering what that water holds for me
Wishin' she would care
Knowin' that she'll never be there for me
Well I took all my troubles, and I threw them in the well
Standing in the silence, feeling sorry for myself
Wishin' she would care
Knowin' that she'll never be there for me

I may not write the great and wonderful American novel
And I might not write a love song that's worth a damn
But I want to write my life around you and be your man
I'll buy you a string of pearls and roses by another name
I'll even plant a secret garden inside your brain
But only if you'll dance with me in the rain
I may not write the great and wonderful American novel
And this love song may not be worth a damn
But I want to write my life around you and be your man
