It takes seven words to tell you that I'm leaving
And I'm not coming back
But I spent the whole time waiting for a train
In a town without a track
And a sad old country song
Is just three minutes long
So put on Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain
And when it’s over I’ll be gone
The Mississippi River used to run
Right by my baby’s door
He’s still living down there in that mud
He just ain’t my man no more
I took the high road out of town
So he can't follow me down
So put on I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry
And when it's over I'll be gone
Pour yourself a shot of booze
I don’t like to drink alone
Play me twelve more bars of blues
And when it’s over, I’ll be gone
When living hard don’t kill you
Then everybody says it makes you strong
But counting down and passing time
Ain’t designed to last too long
If you see that morning light
That means you made it through the night
So put the dirt beneath your boots and babe,
Don’t think twice, it’s all right.
Pour yourself a shot of booze
I don’t like to drink alone
Play me twelve more bars of blues
And when it’s over, I’ll be gone

I’ve heard that it’s been said
By somebody up ahead
We’ll understand it better by and by
I followed him down that lost highway
All I learned was never to ask why
Off see the world
I thought I’d find a girl
Waiting for me where the sun went down
I went on down that road and did what I was told
Now I’ve come too far to turn around
I can’t go back to where I came from
And I’m running out of where to roam
I need some shelter from this rainstorm
I guess I’ve got to go back home
Swam out past the waves
Where there was no one left to save
Sank beneath where I was finally free
But a stranger took my hand
And led me back to land
He said you don’t get out that easily
I can’t go back to where I came from
And I’m running out of where to roam
I gotta get inside out of this rainstorm
I guess I’ve got to go back home

If I Could Sing

If I could sing just like an angel
You know I'd still be the same girl
With a heavy heart and a worried mind
If I had a song I could pass the time
If I was rich, rich like Jay-Z
If the whole world lined up to pay me
If my money piled high, up to the sky above
Baby it still wouldn’t be enough
Climb the walls, get a little bit taller
If I could turn the tide
If you drove that chariot
Would you stop and let me ride
If I could fly just like a swallow
I could touch the sky, I could see tomorrow
There ain't nothin that could make me stay
If I had wings I'd fly away
If I could drink from the golden fountain
At the very top of the highest mountain
Cold clear water like the morning dew
I'd fill my cup and bring it back to you
