two shots away from hell

One shot away from freedom, two shots away from hell,
Yeah where it is I'm going there ain't no way to tell,
Spend my life lonely in freedom,
Or to many years her slave,
Either way when its ending,
It's something else I'll crave,
Well maybe I'll never be happy,
With anything that's already there,
So I'll just keep on searching,
Till the end I'll swear,
That one day ima find me,
Such a better day,
And if I die trying, at least I didn't live my life your way...

flying solo...

I fly solo a lot these days, but it's ok I was born that way, and besides that in never alone, I've got my friend the highway riding along,
And the new people I meet they all seem to smile, when I tell them where I've been, and I'll be back in a while, and When I do make it back their smiling again,
And a handshake or hug comes following then,
Some birds are to colorful to be caged, some were born to sit still, some were born to rage,
And hell I might not ever get to be old,
But what will live forever are the stories I've told,
So hopefully we will meet again somewhere down the street, and we can dance a jig or two of your feeling the beat, and if you ain't quite got that vibe in your shoes, I've got some corn whiskey in a jar that will put you in the mood,
But I can't stay not for to long,
Cause I'm just a lonely singer out looking for a song,

kentucky sunset...

Kentucky sunset can make a grown man cry,
Stole the days beauty to fill up the sky,
Hold on to every last second of the day,
Before they let the night still it away...

Truth of it all

Baby since you left me
Trying to find a way to ease the pain
even buried in this bottle
it still feels the same,
And that's the truth
Truth of it all

And no that don't mean that I can blame you
Hell, hell who the hell would stay,
with a man lost in so many vices,
who cant seem to find his way,
Ain't that the truth,
Ain't that the truth,

ohhh-la,la,la la,la, lonely,
la,da,da,da, lonesome me,
ohhh-ohhh since you left me baby,
ohhh-baby cant you see,

ohh-la,la,la lovely, lady,
ohh-la, how i miss you so,
ohhh-since you left me baby,
ive been buried in this hole,

ohhh-cant you see,
ohh-whoo-is-me,


But I can tell you one thing,
No one else will love you the way I do,
I've been known to walk through fire,
And I'd do that all and more for you,
and you know its true,
oh yes you do,
oh yes you do,

I'm a man damn far from perfect
But I try and do the best I can
And girl what I miss most of all
Is how you made me want to be a better man
and thats the truth
truth of it all

ohhh-la,la,la la,la, lonely,
la,da,da,da, lonesome me,
ohhh-ohhh since you left me baby,
ohhh-baby cant you see,

ohh-la,la,la lovely, lady,
ohh-la, how i miss you so,
ohhh-since you left me baby,
ive been buried in this hole,

ohhh-cant you see,
ohh-whoo-is-me,


sometimes i start to feeling better
then remember that pretty smile
To taste those pretty lips again
I walk barefoot for miles,
Through the pouring rain,
Or burning sand,
anywhere id go,
just to touch your hand,


And I know this song won't get you back
And I probably never will
But putting this pen to paper
might help me find a way to heal,
ohh- and if it dont,
well what the hell,

maybe i hold on to the memory
even though it burns me so
because the sting of the pain
is at least better than being alone
oh aint it so,
ohh-ohhh aint it so,



ohhh-la,la,la la,la, lonely,
la,da,da,da, lonesome me,
ohhh-ohhh since you left me baby,
ohhh-baby cant you see,

ohh-la,la,la lovely, lady,
ohh-la, how i miss you so,
ohhh-since you left me baby,
ive been buried in this hole,

ohhh-cant you see,
ohh-whoo-is-me,

Which one you gonna choose

I don't believe in black or white, wrong or right, 
I think we all carry our own shades of gray,

I do believe that thinking were somewhere in the middle,
Is just the wrong way to be looking at the riddle,
Cause that still assumes we got to chose between two sides,

Truth be told the biggest war,
That we all fighting,
That be the one that be raging inside us,
As we try to free our souls,

That being said I do believe in love and hate,
Not as opposites,
 but as seeds to find the way,

One can lead you down a lonely road,
Feel up the space and bury down your soul,
The other can set you free,

Oh it's a long dark road  where we're all heading,
But ain't it a great life that we've been giving,
The way you live it is up to you,

So when you see clearly the only real choose is love and hate,
And which way you go with it, that's gonna seal your fate,
So which one are you gonna chose...

Truth be told the biggest war,
That we all fighting,
That be the one that be raging inside us,
As we try to free our souls,

Cause love be the way that can help you see the light,
Free those emotions you keep locked down inside,
Open your eyes clearly and help to set you free,

Where hate be da one that consumes all your thinking,
Feels you up with anger, Stops your soul from breathing,
Yes brother it's the same for you and me,

So when you see clearly the only real choose is love and hate,
And which way you go with it, that's gonna seal your fate,
So which one are you gonna chose...

I don't believe in black or white, wrong or right, 
I think we all carry our own shades of gray,

I do believe that thinking were somewhere in the middle,
Is just the wrong way to be looking at the riddle,
Cause that still assumes we got to chose between two sides,

Truth be told the biggest war,
That we all fighting,
That be the one that be raging inside us,
As we try to free our souls,

mary the lover

some of them trying to find Jesus,
some running from their pride,
some of them looking for a reason,
some just searching for a rhyme,

she just houses and feeds them,
and sends em on there way,
cause what it is their needin',
they'll have to find some other place,

she just tries to help out,
the only way that she knows how,
and every one that leaves her,
she leaves them with a smile,

they say Mary she's a sinner,
but many've called Mary a saint,
I guess it's in the eye of the beholder,
For what we are an ain't,

this road that we all travel,
It's filled with broken dreams,
and the ways we find to mend them,
to others it may seem,

But where it is we're going,
and how we will get there we don't know,
But many a prophet has preached,
You reap just what you sow,

see Mary she's a lover,
It's the only life she's ever known,
and she won't make you no false promises,
Just help to ease your load,

they say Mary she's a sinner,
but Many've called Mary a saint,
I guess it's in the eye of the beholder,
For what we are an ain't,

she just keeps on helping,
the only way that she knows how,
and every one that leaves her,
she leaves them with a smile,

some of them trying to find Jesus,
some running from their pride,
some of them looking for a reason,
some just searching for a rhyme,

she just houses and feeds them,
and sends em on there way,
cause what it is there needing,
they'll have to find some other place

over and over... and over and over...

i said nick knack patty whack give a dog a bone,

but where's he gonna be when it's over,
laying in bed thinkin' shit over,

cause love aint nothing you been thinkin of,
you just out there lookin' for a good time,
that's what you say but i think it's just a disguise,

someone over which you can tower,
to make you feel better for how you was treated,
so beat down and so defeated,

hmmm, how familiar does this shit sound,


come on now lady wont you think about it,
but are you gonna listen...hmmmm, i doubt it,
you just gonna move on to the next guy,
nevermind the hearts you break or the ones you make cry,

hearts for breaking like pissing in the wind,
but where you gonna end up when it's over,
laying in bed, thinkin' shit over,

what you gonna do when you needin love,
cause love aint nothin you been thinkin of,
while you were out there lookin for a good time,
you done and gone and broke your heart from the inside,

now your empty looking for a quick fix,
taking home anybody that you can get with,
but they'll be out of bed before you roll over,
it's a viscious cycle over and over,

i said nick knack patty whack give a dog a bone,
