Strong Enough

In my mind I would like to save the world from misery
fighting hunger homeless violence stop the war end poverty
but you know I'm not strong enough to do all that stuff
and I wish that I was ten feet tall and not just small
don't you know that this old world is falling apart at the seams
to fix it now I could save the day or whateverthat means
but you know I'm not strong enough to do all that stuff
and I wish that I was ten feet tall and not just small
if you and I could fight the battle and save the people today
we can stop the cycle and fix the world in our own way
but you know I'm not strong enough to do all that stuff
and I wish that I was ten feet tall and not just small

Upside Down

I was driving down to Athens all alone
I started in New York on the road
made it to Georgia 30 miles to go
when I fell asleep and left the road
I was upside down
Upside down
I should've died but I'm still alive
I remember being upside down
25 years later on that same road
came an 18 wheeler and the van did explode
I remember being upside down
upside down

when I pulled into Asheville I was going downhill
when I pulled into Asheville I was going downhill
nothing in my pocket but a twenty dollar bill
got me a cider and I got me a beer
got me a cider and a locally brewed beer
I'd just come down the mountain wasn't goin' nowhere
if the mountain don't get ya then the river will
if the mountain don't get ya then the river will
when I pulled into Asheville I was going downhill

well I promised you a castle but all we got is a singlewide
well I promised you a castle but all we got is a singlewide
I told you I'd be a rich man baby don't you know I must a lied
siad I'd give you a mustang rusty bicycle is all you got to ride
said I'd give you a mustang rusty bicycle is your only ride
I told you I'd be a rich man baby don't you know I must a lied
I promised you a castle and cars and things
and coats and hats and pearls and diamond rings
and I know that you still love me 'cause you're stickin' by my side
when I got cancer goin' to doctors and you know I'm gonna die
I told you I'd be a rich man baby don't you know I must have lied

Two - Tone "faster"
03:05
|

|
I was driving on the highway when what did I see
a two tone el camino was following me
I decided to ignore it it's just a thing
but she kept getting closer and closer that's when she just came faster
faster faster faster
I don't really like it when people play games
two tone el camino not naming any names
I looked in my rearview and saw 'er changer lanes
came flying up past me it was insane she just came faster
faster faster faster
so if you're ever on the highway two tone vehicle pass you by just remember what I told you tonight and just go faster
faster faster faster

Stole Her Heart
02:39

I stole her heart but I keep it in a safe place one that's far away from misery
she is my sweetheart I love her dearly a love that was surely meant to be
I love her more than eternity love her more than shooting stars
love her more than anything love her more than my guitars
I took her out to the best place I could afford
the taco stand by the university
we had some nacho and some margaritas
the ones that make it all so blurry
well I took off my hat and I took off my coat
and I took off my boots and I lit up a smoke
thought about my woman after a long day
and well this is all I got to say
I love her more than eternity love her more than shooting stars
love her more than anything love her more than my guitars
