Heart (explicit)
04:25
|

Help me, I’m on fire
I’m burning with desire
Keep your drinks and drugs
I’m all fucked up on love
Cut to the core of me
And tell me what you see
In my heart
Time is such a thief
She ran off with my hopes and dreams
But oh, sweet relief
The emptiness will set you free
Search the shadows of my soul
And find the piece that fits the hole
In my heart
Our brains are full of lies
Our thoughts are devils in disguise
Shouting all our fears
Echoing between our ears
And though I’m shaken by the sound
I know the truth is always found
In my heart
In my heart
Hard times will come again
And violence strikes to the heart of men
But what it is they fail to see
Is we are one and you will always be
In my heart
In my heart
In my heart

Never Give Up
02:48
|
|||
Life might bring me down
And times they might get tough
And I might have to slow this down
But I’m never ever gonna give up
I’ll never give up
I’ll never give up
No, I’m never ever
Never ever gonna give up
Life might give me lemons
Well, I’ll squeeze them in my cup
Add a little sugar, make lemonade
But I’m never ever gonna give up
I’ll never give up
I’ll never give up
No, I’m never ever
Never ever gonna give up
The clouds roll in and block that
Sweet sunshine
Can’t always see it but it’s
Shining all the time
Never give up
I’ll never give up
No, I’m never ever
Never ever gonna give up
I’ll never give up
I’ll never give up
No, I’m never ever
Never ever gonna give up

Heavy
02:43
|
|||
I know it’s heavy
That load you carry
I know it’s heavy
That cross you bear
I know your blessings
Feel like a curse
Everybody wants a piece of you
There ain’t nothing worse
Keep your head down
Don’t blow your horn
You can’t fly too high
You can’t be forlorn
I know it’s heavy
That load you carry
I know it’s heavy
That cross you bear
I know your heart
Is big and true
I’ve got nothing but love
And respect for you
That shadow you cast
Well, that’s pretty big too
But you lean on back
And let the light shine through
I know it’s heavy
That load you carry
I know it’s heavy
That cross you bear

Give It To Me Straight
04:00
|
|||
You got one more chance
Don’t let me down
This time tomorrow
I’ll run you out of this town
Don’t make me get
My big boots on
I’ll make you wish you were
Never born
Give it to me straight
Give it to me hard
I don’t wanna worry
About where you are
Give it to me straight
Baby, let me in
I don’t wanna worry
About where you’ve been
Give it to me straight
Neon lights
In a cheap dive
Too many nights I
Barely survived
Drinking away these
Visions of you
Running around like
We used to do
Give it to me straight
Give it to me hard
I don’t wanna worry
About where you are
Give it to me straight
Baby, let me in
I don’t wanna worry
About where you’ve been
Give it to me straight
I don’t wanna find out someday
I refuse to be your fool
And if you think you might get one past me
Darling let me take you to school
Now, give it to me straight
Give it to me hard
I don’t wanna worry
About where you are
Give it to me straight
Baby, let me in
I don’t wanna worry
About where you’ve been
Give it to me straight
Give it to me straight
Give it to me straight
I can handle it
Give it to me straight
Bartender
Give it to me straight

Reckless
03:33
|
|||
I drive too fast
In my car
It’s never going to
Get me very far
I drink too much
Stay out late
I always seem to
Get carried away
Reckless, reckless
I’m a reckless wreck
I’m gonna wreck this life
I’ve been wild all my days
And that ain’t ever gonna change
I’m gonna wreck, wreck this life
Youngest child
From a broken home
All the madness
Gave me a travelin’ bone
I can’t go back
It’s too late now
I can’t slow down
I don’t even know how
Reckless, reckless
I’m a reckless wreck
I’m gonna wreck this life
I’ve been wild all my days
And that ain’t ever gonna change
I’m gonna wreck, wreck this life
I’m running from the truth
Down the roads of misspent youth
Wasted fruit is rotting on the vine
Oh, what a price to pay
I can’t remember yesterday
It’s nothing new, it happens all the time
I’m gonna wreck, wreck this life
Oh, I’m reckless, reckless
I’m a reckless wreck
I’m gonna wreck this life
I’ve been wild all my days
And that ain’t ever gonna change
I’m gonna wreck, wreck this life
I’m gonna wreck, wreck this life

Lord, Send Me A Train
03:16
|
|||
Black streaks, shadows, original sin
We’ve all got our demons
Can I get an amen
I tried to be good
I finally cracked
And when you flip that switch
There’s no turning back
Lord, send me a train
Send me a boxcar
Carry me away
Lord, send me a train
Send me a getaway car
Help me escape
Well, I done did the deed
And now the damage is done
And it’s too broke to fix
I’ve got nowhere to run
I’m down on my knees
Got my ear to the track
Praying God how I wish
I could take this all back
Lord, send me a train
Send me a boxcar
Carry me away
Lord, send me a train
Send me a getaway car
Help me escape
Lord, I made a mistake
Oh, I’m in trouble now
Won’t you send me a train
Lord, send me a train
Send me a boxcar
Carry me away
Lord, send me a train
Send me a getaway car
Help me escape

Gypsy
02:40
|
|||
I ain’t got a home in this world no more
I’m gonna find me a spot on the Carolina shore
Gonna build me a shack and I won’t be a gypsy no more
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy no more
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy no more
I’m all alone in this great big world
I’m gonna find me an angel and make her my girl
Put a ring on her finger and I won’t be alone no more
I won’t be alone
I won’t be alone
I won’t be alone no more
I won’t be alone
I won’t be alone
I won’t be alone no more
I’ve been wandering all my days
Been living my life in a vagabond haze
But one of these days I ain’t gonna wander no more
I ain’t gonna wander
I ain’t gonna wander
I ain’t gonna wander no more
I ain’t gonna wander
I ain’t gonna wander
I ain’t gonna wander no more
I ain’t got a home in this world no more
I’m gonna find me a spot on the Carolina shore
Gonna build me a shack and I won’t be a gypsy no more
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy no more
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy
I won’t be a gypsy no more
I won’t be a gypsy no more
No, I won’t be a gypsy no more
(That’s a damn lie)

The Fighter
03:47
|

Where you are
I’ve never been
Seems like all you’ve known
Is a heavy hand
I want to climb down
And lift you up
Let you drink from my loving cup
‘Cause, baby, you sure do shine
And every little thing is gonna be alright
I might take some time
But love never gives up the fight
The sky is gray
The rain is falling down
The mood is heavy
All over town
But look right here
Here’s a little spark
There’s always hope
Even in the darkest dark
Now, baby, you sure do shine
And every little thing is gonna be alright
I might take some time
But love never gives up the fight
I’ve got love for miles and miles
I’d give it all just to see you smile
Walk through hell by your side
Drain the well and open up the sky
Yeah, baby, you sure do shine
And every little thing is gonna be alright
I might take some time
But love never gives up the fight

Patience
03:42
|
|||
All this time alone
Brought me back to myself
It’s like finally coming home
After years and years spent someplace else
But now I realize what it is that lies
On the other side of loneliness
I caught your eye (eye)
Patience is a virtue
One I learned a little late
It took some time to find someone
Who was worth the wait
Worth the wait
In this cosmic swirl
Of life and love and time and space
The ever-spinning world
All I can see is your sweet face
And now I wait for you
Underneath the stars tonight
And I know that you’ll come to me
If I play my cards right (right?)
Patience is a virtue
One I learned a little late
It took some time to find someone
Who was worth the wait
Worth the wait
Your hand upon my back
Made the whole world melt away
All I’ve ever done is run
But for you, for you I’ll stay
For you I’ll stay
For you I’ll stay
Patience is a virtue
One I learned a little late
It took some time to find someone
Who was worth the wait
Worth the wait
You’re worth the wait

The Ground
03:14
|
|||
Well, it’s a hard day’s work
When you’re living off the land
When you’re digging in the dirt
With your bare hands
But it’s worth all the worry
And every drop of sweat
When you live from your heart
What you give is what you get
All the sons and the daughters
All the people that we knew
They all went off to college
Now they’re making do
But there’s something that is missing
And it grips them through and through
But I found it in the ground
And I brought some back for you
So, let’s build a tiny house
On a sixteen-acre plot
And let’s make a new beginning
And redefine “a lot”
We might lose all the hard stuff
But you’ll always have this spot
Right here, in my heart
‘Cause what you give is what you’ve got
All the sons and the daughters
All the people that we knew
They all went off to college
Now they’re making do
But there’s something that is missing
And it grips them through and through
But I found it in the ground
And I brought some back for you
So, we’ll cultivate the earth
And we’ll cast the seed
Let it grow inside of us
We’ll have all we’ll ever need
I’m so grateful for the bounty
And I’m grateful for the truth
And I’m grateful for the ground
That brought me back to you

Heart (Radio Edit)
04:26
|

Help me, I’m on fire
I’m burning with desire
Keep your drinks and drugs
I’m all messed up on love
Cut to the core of me
And tell me what you see
In my heart
Time is such a thief
She ran off with my hopes and dreams
But oh, sweet relief
The emptiness will set you free
Search the shadows of my soul
And find the piece that fits the hole
In my heart
Our brains are full of lies
Our thoughts are devils in disguise
Shouting all our fears
Echoing between our ears
And though I’m shaken by the sound
I know the truth is always found
In my heart
In my heart
Hard times will come again
And violence strikes to the heart of men
But what it is they fail to see
Is we are one and you will always be
In my heart
In my heart
In my heart
