Brothers 03:20
You're in the strawberry curls and I'm in the straight dirty blonde Runnin' so hard through the trees, wrestling around in the lawn You're sticking up for me, I'm sticking up for you A love so deep the Mississippi run through Brothers we'll always be, you and me You're still a loner and I got the beautiful bride to be You make the money, I play the fiddle and sing I'm still sticking up for you, you're sticking up for me We share the same blood whenever we bleed Brothers we'll always be, you and me You're lying there in the hospital bed and I'm holding your hand Still teaching me something about being a man I'm looking out for you, you're looking out for me We both live and die and we both are free Brothers we'll always be, you and me

I get that call at 4 am for a reason One of two they give you at the county jail Out of this warm bed into the freezing Drag my ass eleven miles just to post your bail I took a punch for you in a barroom brawl and a beer bottle over the head Good as my word, loyal to the day I'm dead I'm the door you knock on for money I'm the floor you walk on with a hefty load Now I can't make your rainy day sunny But I'll pick you up when you run out of the road I've covered for you from a little white lie to sleeping in another man's bed Good as my word, loyal to the day I'm dead Moon sets to sunrise, northern lights to Texas skies This is true as the blue in these eyes I'm the only one left standing here, all the others fled Good as my word, loyal to the day I'm dead

You're my blood, you're my son You fill my heart with true, unconditional love I would die to see you live Ain't nothing that I'll ever that I wouldn't give When the day gets darker than the night I'll be there to guide you toward the brightest light Back to where it all began, back to the southern graceland All these years whittle down to days I've taken my turns through this unpredictable maze I'm not afraid and free of all envy And when I'm dead lay me down in Tennessee When the day gets colder than the night I'll be there to pull you toward the warm sunlight Back to where it all began, back to the southern graceland When the day gets darker than the night I'll be there to guide you toward the brightest light If you're lost, if you've been led astray Get back on the track, you won't forget the way Back to where it all began, back to the southern graceland

Moving on from hotels and heartaches From the smoke heavy curtains and regret It's a long night when you start it out crying And a long day ahead Used to be so amusing, all the roads I was using Turned out they were just using me Led my life as a nomad, a wanderer with no plan Getting by on hotels and heartaches I won't miss the heartbreaks Now the winter in Austin is like summer in Boston Oklahoma is all wind and rain If I could find me a place without moving I'd settle in Used to be so amusing, all the roads I was using Turned out they were just using me Led my life as a nomad, a wanderer with no plan Getting by on hotels and heartaches I won't miss the heartbreaks Moving on from hotels and heartaches From the smoke heavy curtains and regret If I could find me a place without moving I'd settle in

I used to get lost in the dark sometimes You came in like a warm ray of sunshine Four years later and a couple of youngins It couldn't be more clear You light up my darkest hour, dear I got caught in a storm a long time ago Thirty odd years of hard wind, rain and snow You came around and the thunder, lightning And grey cloud all disappeared You light up my darkest hour, dear Living was sad and lonely until I met you You took me places I never knew You make days easy to get through Carmen, my love don't shed those tears tonight Whenever you're blue and tired of the fight I'll pick you up off of the ground And dust off your trouble and fear I'll light up your darkest hour, dear Take my hand for this first dance And I'll lead you far from here I'll light up your darkest hour, dear You light up my darkest hour, dear

In The Grave 03:43
From many miles south of the Mason Dixon line A step right off of the Mississippi Queen You think I ain't got no rock and roll I'm a making your boots kick sawdust up in the hall I'm a drinker, a drugger, and a fighter I'm a lover, a liar lying beside her It's an empty life I lead, I know my mama's turning in the grave In the grave This hat's from central Texas, these boots from Tennessee I got this second hand suit in North Caroline I ain't got a nickel to my name But I'm a livin' as free as the rich man in the shade I'm a drinker, a drugger, and a fighter I'm a lover, a liar lying beside her It's a lonely life I lead, I bet my daddy's turning in the grave In the grave My mama grew up Christian and my daddy prayed to God It was Sunday mass at the start of every week Now I can't say today what I believe But I'm a hoping that something saves my ass when I leave I'm a drinker, a drugger, and a fighter I'm a lover, a liar lying beside her It's a selfish life I lead, I'm gonna wind up in the grave In the grave

I was just a boy when you would take me Riding in that ol' brown Bronco You'd set me in your lap and let me steer While you switched the gears You stood just like a hundred story wall Time will always be the wrecking ball It's true, ever since those days I been looking up to you I'd fetch the whisky and cigars For you and all the fellas playing bridge For sips of beer I would beg While tugging at your leg Rest assured you're my hero now They'll be days I make you proud Only love can speak this loud One day I blinked and you were seventy I's now a man at half your age Rocking the grandkids in your chair Hurtin' everywhere
9.
You got the butter, I got the dough Let's make an angel in the snow I wanna know you like no one's ever known I got the engine, you got the drive Let's have a cheap beer at the dive I wanna make big plans for you and I Spin the record and sing our song What started new has grown strong After our bodies are dead and gone May our love, may our love live on You got the pistol, I got the aim Let's plant a garden in the rain I wanna skip all those petty love games I got the honey, you got the bee Let's come together naturally I want the whole damn world to see you and me
