That Ain't Country
03:18

I've had just about enough
that ain't Country in the charts
it all sounds pretty lame
you guys give me a bad name
I don't know what is
I don't know what is
it sure ain't Country
and i don't like it one bit
Country is the white man's blues
it gives you hope when you're born to lose
it helps you make it through the night
and warms your heart when the winter bites
I don't know...
all you so called country stars
go to hell and kiss my arse
that ain't country that you play
leave me alone and go to hell
I don't know...

I Got Trouble
03:10

gonna keep on ramblin'
'till the day that I die
travelling down this winding road
please don't ask me why
don't try to tie me down
gotta keep moving on
till my time runs out
and the lord calls me home
I don't care bout fame and money
that kind of life ain't meant for me
gonna travel this country
from the mountains to the see
I got trouble
I got trouble on my mind
keep going keep going
hard living hard times

Rain Pouring Down
03:50
|
|||
|
it's two in the morning the rain's pouring down
you don't know your way around this town
your heart is weary it wont let you sleep
you keep on driving through the empty streets
you know you better head back soon
but there's no one waiting in your motel room
it's just you and the moon up above
and that god damn rain keeps pouring down
the radio is playing a Merle Haggard song
you wish it could last all night long
you light a cigarette you could kill for a beer
but there won't be a bar that's still open round here
you might get lost but you won't get found
you don't even want to be around
your heart is weary it wont let you sleep
so you keep on driving through the empty streets

The River
03:30
|
|||
|
I follow the river
until the river runs dry
gotta keep on moving
don't ask why
through the valleys below
and the mountains up high
gotta keep on going
don't ask why
I follow that river
till the end of time
when the waters stop flowing
gonna lay down to die
gonna follow that river
down to the sea
when it flows in the ocean
I can be free

Can't Shake The Blues
03:20
|
|||
|
ain't no use ain't no use
it don't matter what you do
ain't no use ain't no use
you can never shake the blues
you been trying to forget
keep your eyes on the road ahead
plenty rocks in your way
keep on living from day to day
you can fight the whole world
tell yourself that your not hurt
long as blood runs in your veins
there is no way to ease the pain
you can run but you can't hide
lay down your arms or keep up the fight
it don't matter which way you chose
you can never shake the blues

Working Man
03:47
|
|||
|
40 years of nine to five
nothing to show at the end of the line
you sell your soul for some petty cash
until they throw you out with the trash
shut your mouth and don't complain
or someone else will take your place
the bosses don't give a damn
to them your just another working man
working man working man
sell your soul and break your back
you can never get ahead
when your just another working man
someone's slave until the end
if you don't like it that's too bad
you can never win this game
when your just another working man

Can't Stop Now
03:53
|
|||
|
you can't see the point to carry on
all hope's already dead and gone
keep on going anyhow
you're too far in can't stop now
never make it to the top
makes no difference if you stop
this damn ship is going down
still you hold on can't stop now
can't stop now
can't stop now
keep on going anyhow
can't stop now
never give up
can't stop now
can't get back on your feet
smells a lot like defeat
keep on going anyhow
never give up can't stop now

Fascist Pigs
03:46
|
|||
|
we're heading down a road of destruction
this world is crying out in pain
It's the calm before the storm
no-one seems to give a damn
time to rise up and take a stand
fascist pigs rising up again
spreading fear and preaching hate
not in my name not in my name
they've put a clown in the white house
wants to make America great again
did you get your front row seat
to watch the world go to hell
don't give an inch
can't let the bastards win
never again never again
fuck off fascist pigs

born in to this world alone
all things must pass
everything returns to nothing
at the end the hourglass
don't be afraid of dying
wipe the tears from your eyes
there's no point in crying
follow the sun in the Sky
everything will be gone
nothing shall remain
there's no right or wrong
no more sorrow or pain
everything keeps changing
times is moving on
we're just passing through
destination unknown
everything will be forgotten
in the big black hole
Sooner or later we'll be
dead and gone
|

10. |

|
they say it's time to settle down
gotta stop this rambling round
there ain't nothing to be found
a restless heart is trouble bound
but every time I get the blues
I put on my travelling shoes
I can't help this roaming round
my heart is always trouble bound
god knows I've tried to change my ways
I might be fine for a couple days
but I know it won't be long
until I feel the blues coming on
might as well just keep on going
go whichever way the wind is blowing
I can't help this roaming round
my heart is always trouble bound

Eyes Open Wide
04:30
|
|||
|
you better hold on tight
don't lose it my friend
this moment in time
is about to end
today wont come again
don't let it slide
keep on living
with eyes open wide
well the clouds have disappeared
and you start to see things clear
wipe the tears from your eyes
keep living with eyes open wide
one day you'll be sorry
after it's gone
don't be in a hurry
for the night will be long
