'Cause if you do you can hear There are voices still callin' from across the years And they're cryin' across the ocean And they're cryin' across the land And they will until we all come to understand (chorus) That 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 there are people in the darkness And they just can't see the light And if we don't say it's wrong then that says it's right We got to feel for each other Let our brothers know we're here Got to get the message and send it out loud and clear That 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 single truth We all need to see That none of are free if one of us is chained None of us are free Well I swear to you salvation isn't very hard to find None of us can find it on our own We got to join together. 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 |

Cuz' this is my woman there and I'm a man who cares and this might be all for you" (I said "excuse me!")

(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." |

Out of all the reindeer you know you're the mastermind
Run, run rudolph, randalph's not too far behind Run, run rudolph, santa's got to make it to town Randalph he can hurry, he can take the freeway down. And away went rudolph a-whizzing like a merry-go-round Said santa to a boy child what have you been longing for? All I want for christmas is a rock and roll electric guitar And away went rudolph a-whizzing like a shooting star Run, run rudolph, santa's got to make it to town Can't you make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down And away went rudolph a-whizzing like a merry-go-round Said santa to a girl child what would you like most to get? I want a little baby doll that can cry, scream and wet And away went rudolph a-whizzing like a saber jet Run, run rudolph, run, run rudolph, a-running like a son-of-a-gun |

Every mornin' She'd help us say our prayers Every night She was always there to help us Through the hard times We could count on her To make everything alright I remember swingin' on the front porch Papa said, there's somethin I need to say tonight Mama's been sick for a long time Let's pray to God She can make it through the night "Mama don't wanna say goodbye" She said "Wipe those tears from your eyes" "Mama, I don't wanna say goodbye" It was written in the heavens And the skies above "Son, I gave you birth Showed you all my love" "I can't think of this life without you It's hard to try Mama, I'm afraid to say goodbye" "Now kids I've been hangin' on a long time I hate to leave this world Before you're grown Remember everything That I've taught you Remember all the good times When I'm gone" "Mama don't wanna say goodbye" She said "Wipe those tears from your eyes" "Mama, I don't wanna say goodbye" It was written in the heavens And the skies above "Son, I gave you birth Showed you all my love" "I can't think of this life without you It's hard to try Mama, I'm afraid to say goodbye" She whispered in my ear Before she passed away "Son, it's time to be a man Ain't nothin' left to say Jesus walked on water, I know it's true When it comes time, he'll call you home I hope you're ready too" "Mama don't wanna say goodbye" She said "Wipe those tears from your eyes" "Mama, I don't wanna say goodbye" It was written in the heavens And the skies above "Son, I gave you birth Showed you all my love" "I can't think of this life without you It's hard to try Mama, I'm afraid to say goodbye" |

Christmas lights out in the yard
A wreath hung on our door There was christmas music on the radio When I stare outside my window Waiting for Santa to come I couldn't wait to see under our tree When Santa's work was done Singing hallelujah it's christmas Everybody all over the world tonight Singing hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas time again All year long I try to be As good as I could be Just a boy with all them childhood dreams Then I'd sit down and write "Dear Santa, Don't forget to come my way. I'll see you soon, and please make room For my guitar in your sleigh" Singing hallelujah it's christmas Everybody all over the world tonight Singing hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas time again Singing hallelujah it's christmas People all sharing their hearts tonight Singing hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas all over the world Have a happy christmas Make a joyful noise Have a happy christmas All us wild eyed boys I never got that ... But it taught me to believe That what means the most is only To give more than receive And if we could wish together I'd wish the world in harmony Cause if christmas could last forever What a better world it'd be Singing hallelujah it's christmas Everybody all over the world tonight Singing hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas time again Singing hallelujah it's christmas Hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas time again Singing hallelujah it's christmas Everybody all over the world tonight Singing hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas time again Singing hallelujah it's christmas People all sharing their hearts tonight Singing hallelujah it's christmas It's christmas all over the world |

I bet you can't remember Well a lot of people are sayin' "we're changing for the better" Well that don't interest me I like the simple life The way it used to be We left our doors wide open We didn't need no key I've been around the world Seen all there is to see I'd trade all those memories for one more day How it used to be I like the simple life I wanna get up Sunday mornin' Go fishin' with my boy Watch the sunset kick back in my yard Take my harley on a real long lazy Sunday drive And do a little more nothin' once in a while Yeah maybe kick my feet up Watch a little re-run on tv Laughin' with ol' barney, andy and aunt bee I like the simple life The way it used to be We left our doors wide open We didn't need no key I've been around the world Seen all there is to see I'd trade all those memories for one more day How it used to be I like the simple life Everything's going by so fast I swear sometimes we just can't see So caught up in where we're trying to get Life as we know it, could be gone in a minute I like the simple life The way it used to be We left our doors wide open We didn't need no key I've been around the world Seen all there is to see I'd trade all those memories for one more day I like the simple life I like the simple life I want the simple life |

When I was 15 I dreamed of leaving my home
I had to see the world And live like a rolling stone I heard California was paved in gold So I hopped on that train It didn't come easy But I keep thinkin' bout The green grass and missing my home Take me back to my southern ways Where I can be myself and live another day Take me back to my southern ways Where the tall pines blow and the southern winds kiss my face Oh southern grace Me and my boys started a band Practiced everyday out on the Hell House land Played every honky tonk and this ol' bar To sing about ol' Bama We were just simple men The music is forever And the songs will never ever end Take me back to my southern ways Where I can be myself and live another day Take me back to my southern ways Where the tall pines blow and the southern winds kiss my face Oh take me back! I sit here thinkin' about those days I wouldn't change a thing about my life today Ain't it funny how time sure flies 'Cause all I ever wanted and needed WAS YOU Take me back to my southern ways Where I can be myself and live another day Take me back to my southern ways Where the tall pines blow and the St. John's flows, and only God - he Knows, and those southern winds kiss my face |

Well I heard it on the late night radio
For the umpteenth time headin' from LA to the Florida coast I was between black coffee and shifting gears When the second verse took a turn and brought me to tears They were talkin' about love, I do and forever And how two people ought to stay together Well the music hit me but the singer's got it all wrong Unwrite that song Unwrite that song 'Cause what he's saying to me don't go with that melody Unsing them lines about those happy times Don't they know she's gone Unwrite that song Well it was 3 AM and she was cryin' and her eyes were all red When that music video came on and she sat up in her bed She grabbed that whiskey bottle Poured one last shot And threw that empty glass at the TV and screamed Unwrite that song Unwrite that song 'Cause what he's saying to me don't go with that melody Unsing them lines about those happy times Don't they know he's gone Unwrite that song Well there was a time that I believed All those words were true And if I had a pen and paper right now I know what I'd do Unwrite that song Unwrite that song 'Cause what he's saying to me don't go with that melody Unsing them lines about those happy times Don't they know he's gone Unwrite that song Lord I know she's gone Unwrite that song Unwrite our song |

I can't believe how long it's been Like a poet, he began to play Just an old friend that hung with the band A drinkin' man he had no plan But he played the 'Bird Played it for free 'Cause I know he's here He's everywhere Take a look around oh and you will see That cross we bear It's in the air Lord we thank you for these gifted hands There are demons we live with every day That tear at our hearts and take us away To another place Some of us don't get back This song is for the hands of the workin' man Who believes in himself and he understands Love, hope, and faith are The Maker's plan 'Cause I know he's here He's everywhere Take a look around oh and you will see That cross we bear It's in the air Lord we thank you for these gifted hands One day we'll all take that ride And with those gifted hands I know you'll fly |

The boy gets crazy when he's sittin' at the bar
Don't you mess with Jake don't you push him to far Rot gut whiskey and home made wine Make a good country boy just lose his mind Like a run away train rollin' through the night The boy ain't got no fear Like a race car hittin' the wall he gets hard to steer Waitin' for the smoke to clear OOOOHH Betty got caught in the back of Bobby's car Bobby got caught with his hand in the cookie jar Her daddy blew a fuse and he went for his gun EEEEE Now Bobby and Betty thier on the run Like a run away train rollin' through the nite Nothin's gonna stop them now Gotta keep on movin', coverin' tracks somehow Like a run away train rollin' through the night The kids ain't got no fear Daddy's (wizz?) bang is the last sound Bobby's gonna hear ooohhh Waitin for the smoke to clear Daddy finally caught him in the end of his gun Put a dead end to all of Bobby's fun OOhh Good God almighty, Oh heaven sakes Betty's Daddy turned out to be Jake Like a run away train rollin' through the nite Jake ain't got no fear Know the hangman judge gonna give the boy 99 years Here sits Jake at the back of this bar Sippin' on a nice cold beer If the law had a clue all they'd do is look right here When they see Jake..... waitin' for the smoke to clear Waitin for...OOOOHHHAAA |

Mmmmmmmm
I listen, and still I haven't heard Tell me what is the word And if I ever heard it Would it be clear as water Oh tears run down your face Reflects the human race We're all caught up with winnin' Losing time and space Life's Lessons So you think you know it all but you're headin' for a fall Oh to make it back again You'll have to crawl and step back Take a look around are your feet still on the ground Oh can we find you in the section of lost and found Never think you've got it figured out 'cause when you do you'll begin to doubt It's time for you to open your eye's Will we look back and see what we've done Will we be proud or ashamed of what we've become Will we realize we all share one fate Or is this another Life's Lesson, too late Ohhh Never think you've got it figured out 'cause when you do you'll begin to doubt It's time for you to open your eye's Ohhhh Will we look back and see what we've done Will we be proud or ashamed of what we've become Will we realize we all share one fate Is this another Life's Lesson, too late Will we look back and see what we've done Ohhh, ohhh Will we realize we all share one fate Ohhhh Life's Lessons Ohhh,ohhh,ohhh, yeah Life's Lessons Ohhhhh - Life's Lessons Will we look back and see what we've done (back up singers) Will we realize we all share one fate (back up singers) |

Well it took so long for me to realize,
That my destiny was right before my eyes, If it were up to me to travel through this life, I'd find an open space for me to live out all my dreams, CHORUS I'm such a lucky man, I try to be a stronger man, I shed a tear or two but that don't make me a weaker man, It's made me a better man, I've given all I can, To a world that sometimes thinks that I'm a lesser man I remember all the things that I've been through, Gave myself to all those people I once knew, I'm such a lucky man I'd like to thank you for all the times that you have been with me, I hope it meant as much to you to share these memories, Theres a guiding light that always seems to shine, If I did it all again, I'd be happy to the end, Im a lucky man, I try to be a stronger man, I shed a tear or two but that don't make me a weaker man, It's made me a better man, I've given all I can, To a world that sometimes thinks that I'm a lesser man I remember all the things that I've been through, Gave myself to all those people I once knew, I'm such a lucky man Im a lucky man, I try to be a stronger man, I shed a tear or two but that don't make me a weaker man, It's made me a better man, I've given all I can, To a world that sometimes thinks that I'm a lesser man I'm a lucky man Mmmmmmmm I'm a lucky man Whoa, such a lucky man |
