Doesn't seem that long ago
Three of us walkin' down that road Grey fifty-five Chevy, parked in the front yard Little Melody tagged along Those were the best days now they're gone It's been twelve years since it went down Lord, lost my best friend now I can still see him, fishin' on that old dock I know I can?t bring back yesterday But oh, Lord, can you help me find my way? Down to Brickyard Road, oh, walk on down Down to Brickyard Road, he's with me now Swore I saw a free bird fly, ridin' the winds of the Southern sky When I hear that whistle blow It carries me back to Brickyard Road Brother, do you realize what you've done? Touched the hearts of everyone You might've died too young but your songs live on I know I can?t bring back yesterday But we'll be all together again some day Down to Brickyard Road, oh, walk on down Down to Brickyard Road, he's with us now Swore I saw a free bird fly, ridin' the winds of the Southern sky When I hear that whistle blow It carries me back down to Brickyard Road, oh, Brickyard Road Down to Brickyard Road, oh, walk on down To Brickyard Road, oh, he's with us now, he's with us now Swore I saw a free bird fly, ridin' the winds of the Southern sky When I hear that whistle blow It carries me back down to Brickyard Road And Brickyard Road, oh, he's with us now I can see him standin' on the dock Saw his Chevy out in the front yard Walk on down, walk on down Oh, Brickyard Road, he's with us now, he's with us now Oh, Brickyard Road, walk on down, walk on down Momma and Daddy's doin' all right I saw Melody last Saturday night She's all grown up, she's such a pretty girl Things just ain't the same since you left our world Walk on down Wanna go back Wanna go back to Brickyard Road, Brickyard Road, oh God, won't you turn it back Oh, turn on, turn on, turn on, oh Down to Brickyard road Oh, I can see him now, I can see him now Down to Brickyard road |

It's a hot August night, it's just a matter of time
Till she walks my way I've seen her before and I wanna see more But I don't know how to say That you're the one that I've been dreaming of The one I wanna call mine I wanna tell you I ain't givin' up I've already made up my mind I can't believe how deep I'm in Baby, I go crazy when you walk by My heart starts beating like a big bass drum If I had three wishes, l'd have it all worked out You and me baby there'd be no doubt ohh ohh ohh If I had three wishes, girl, I'd spend them all up makin' love to you If I had three wishes But this time she stopped, she said, ?What time have you got?? I said, ?All of the time in the world? All at once love took over, I could no longer hide These feelings I've held deep inside It feels so good just to tell you this Baby, what I'd give for just one sweet kiss My heart's beatin' like a big bass drum If I had three wishes, I'd have it all worked out You and me, baby, there'd be no doubt, ohh, ohh, ohh If I had three wishes, girl, I'd spend them all makin' love to you If I had three wishes Baby, if you'd give me half a chance I know I could love you for the rest of your life Three wishes If I had three wishes, I'd have it all worked out You and me, baby, there'd be no doubt, ohh, ohh, ohh If I had three wishes, girl, I'd spend them all makin' love to you If I had three wishes |

Young girls out on the street
Late night with nowhere to sleep Runnin' away nothing's at home Carrie she packed up her dreams Truth is more than it seems Cold hard facts are scary face to face But she's too caught up And the fantasy won't let go Sooner or later somethin' is gonna break She'll find out the hard way Young girls know what to do Show up in red and end up wearin' blue Young girls, no it ain't nothin' new Don't know when to leave it alone Desperate she follows the lights To get by just one more night She'd give anything To have it the way it was Well, she's too caught up And the fantasy won't let go Sooner or later somethin' is gonna break She'll find out the hard way Young girls know what to do Show up in red and end up wearin' blue Young girls, no it ain't nothin' new Don't know when to leave it alone Young girls, no one to catch you When you fall Young girls they'll find out the hard way Young girls know what to do Show up in red and end up wearin' blue Young girls, no it ain't nothin' new Don't know when to leave it alone |

You look at me with an empty stare
Where love once was, now nothing is there You once lived for me, but now you don't care If love is war baby, nothings fair Our last embrace was a slap in the face You left me with a hunger that time won't erase I believed is you, you were the only one Lookin' back I was better off playing with a loaded gun Love can be so cruel Love can take you for a fool Love can be blind, if you think love is true It'll open your eyes, oh baby Love can be so cruel, love can be cruel Two different minds look through two sets of eyes And two different hearts, living two separate lives We just can't agree, so we stop asking why 'Cause sometimes the truth hurts more than the lie It's over now and we can't pretend (Can't pretend) Same thing that made us happy Makes us cry in the end Love can be so cruel Love can take you for a fool Love can be blind when you think love is true It will open your eyes, oh baby Love can be so cruel, there ain't no rules Love is so cruel And if the rain starts comin' down Let it fall, just let it fall 'Cause it's a whole lot better to have been in love Than to have never been in love at all Love can be so cruel Love can take you for a fool Love can be blind when you think love is true It will open your eyes, oh baby Love can be so cruel, there ain't no rules Love is so cruel Love can be so cruel Love can take you for a fool Love can be blind when you think love is true It will open your eyes, oh baby Love can be so cruel, there ain't no rules Love is so cruel |

Spirit, heart and mind All the are suffering, knows they're not alone None of us are free None of us are free If you just look around you You're see what I say 'Cause the world's gettin' smaller each passin' day Now it's time to make some changes Now it's time all realized That the truth is shinin' right before our eyes 'Cause none of us are free None of us are free None of us are free if one of us is chained None of us are free Well it's the very heart of humanity 'Cause none of us are free if one of us is chained None of us are free None of us, none of us None of us, none of us None of us, none of us are free None of us, none of us None of us, none of us None of us, none of us are free None of us are free None of us are free None of us are free if one of us is chained None of us are free 'Cause it's the very truth We all need to see That none of us are free if one of us is chained None of us are free |

Well, there's a devil in the bottle, staring straight at me Daring me to reach out, but I know he's testing me If I take just one sip, I become that devil's son Act a fool, sell my soul before God and everyone Oh Lord, I know, I only hurt the ones I love I'm walkin' down this dead end road, all alone and by myself Wish I could blame the whiskey, but I can only blame myself Running out of chances, and Lord that's such a crime I got to find the answer before I lose my mind Oh Lord its a cryin shame, oh Lord I've caused so much pain I only hurt the ones I love There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be So many times I've been hurtin' my soul and family But I got free on the day I fought the Devil in the bottle The next time that ol' devil tries to get the best of me I'll smash that bottle against the wall and know I'm finally free There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be There's so many times I let him hurt me I got free the day I fought the Devil in the bottle Devil in the bottle Devil in the bottle |

I was cuttin the rug down at a place called 'The Jug' with a girl named Linda Lou
When in walked a man with a gun in his hand he was looking for you know who He said "Hey there fellow with the hair coloured yellow, watcha tryin' to proove? Cuz' this is my woman there and I'm a man who cares and this might be all for you" (I said "excuse me!") I was scared and fearing for my life I was shaking like a leaf on a tree Cuz' he was lean and mean and big and bad, Lord, pointing that gun at me Oh! wait a minute mister, I didn't even kiss her don't want no trouble with you and I know you don't owe me but I wish you would let me ask one favour from you Say won't you Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister, gimme 3 steps toward the door? Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister and you'll never see me no more." (Guitar solo) Oh well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray and the water fell down to the floor and I'm telling you, son, it ain't no fun, staring straight down a fourty-four. Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou, and that's the break I was looking for and you could hear me screaming a mile away as I was headed out toward the door. Oh won't you Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister, gimme 3 steps toward the door? Gimme 3 steps, gimme 3 steps mister and you'll never see me no more." |
