Last night, I dreamed my demons came And took me to a place Where lines are blurred of bad & good And told me I must face The choices I did make I said I placed my bets with no regrets At times, I jumped the rails Yet, kept along a righteous path Despite your evil veil And a hell-hound on my trail

Get the demons out my head Before they get my heart I got this thing I need to do before I fall apart If the rain won't let me be I guess I'll just get wet And if the sun won't shine on me The dark could be my friend I know what you know Crazy but it's true If you know what I know The whole thing is through... them demons too Get the demons out my head Before they get my heart I got this thing I need to do before I fall apart If the devil wants a deal My soul is not for sale And if the preacher wants my gold My soul is not for sale I know what you know Crazy but it's true If you know what I know The whole thing is screwed... them demons too

Get yer flannel & yer Levi's Man, we got some work to do There's a fox in the hen-house The tractor needs tending to Cause if we don't clear this land We ain't gonna have no food Miss Jackson, she told me The winter is hard & rough There's grain in the store-house I hope it will be enough For this poor city boy This country livin's tough Get out that guitar Ella Mae be on my mind She took the last train home And left me here to find What I've been looking for In the country fields of mine Yeah, what I've been looking for But this city boy's so blind

Ella Mae 04:41
Tell me what's that sound Coming down the hill It's a crazy sound Giving me the chills It's Ella Mae's laugh Rollin' cross the field It's Ella Mae's laugh Gotta get my fill She wears a country smile And a denim skirt Got them emerald eyes With just a touch of hurt But, It's Ella Mae's laugh Really drive me wild It's Ella Mae's laugh Like a baby chile There's a hole in the world And a hush fallin' all cross the land The sun just won't shine til I hear... Ella Mae's laugh She make a rich man beg Make a blind man see But she don't know What she do to me It's Ella Mae's laugh Really drive me wild It's Ella Mae's laugh Like a baby chile There's a hole in the world And a hush fallin' all cross the land The sun just won't shine til I hear... Ella Mae's laugh

When I was a child, I was outta my mind Never could understand why everyone leaned to the right I have learned patience and I took my time Might seem a bit backwards, but it's mine all mine And I wake up every mornin' to a world seems so unkind In a left-handed world, nothing seems right I have adapted the tools of the trade With a creative touch to everything I have made Still can't help feelin' like a turned around fool But, when I look in the mirror, it reminds me of you And I wake up every mornin' to a world seems so unkind In a left-handed world, nothing seems right So, if you are singin' the left-handed blues Don't be afraid to break all the rules And you'll wake up every mornin' with a smile on your face In left-handed world, everything's in place

Well, the road was hard, times were tough Not beyond the point of carin' In the dark, a flower bloomed And here name was Rose of Sharon What could she do, what could she do Well, she could not turn away When she looked into her mother's eyes There were no words to say So much lost, so much pain Was this whole world in vain Like a candle burnin' in the dark Or a rose on a cold grey day She heard her mother talkin' with the children Sayin' there'll be more good times Rose of Sharon looked beyond With such a mysterious smile Well, the road was hard Times were tough Not beyond the point of carin' In the dark, a flower bloomed And here name was Rose of Sharon She lost it all, but never stopped carin' And her name was Rose of Sharon

The sun will set, the moon will rise To sillouette the day's reprise And if your heart can't bare the cold Then you must walk the hanging road The hanging road, the hanging road You can't deny what the elders told That when you cross the great divide The hanging road's the other side You may be high, you may be low You may be torn which way to go But if your feet can't carry the load Then you must walk the hanging road The hanging road, the hanging road You can't deny what the elders told That when you cross the great divide The hanging road's the other side

Take what you want and throw the rest away With the best intentions, it happens anyway It's not what you do or what you say That wakes you in the morning to greet the brand new day There's something happening here Just what it is ain't so clear The Great Wonder shakin' up the cage Right now it seems so tragic But I still believe that magic Will take hold... safe as houses stay Take what you need and give the rest away It's no solution, but it happens everyday It's not what you do or what you say That wakes you in the morning to greet the brand new day There's something happening here Just what it is ain't so clear The Great Wonder shakin' up the cage Right now it seems so tragic But I still believe that magic Will take hold... safe as houses stay I broke down at the heart of the crossroads Hoodoo, you know, can blow your mind The second coming of a man in time Well I tried, so goodbye again Now I'm livin' on a resurrection Reborn with a gun in hand No time for weekend mind I tried, so goodbye again Some say that it's a superstition Ain't no stoppin' ol' Father Time You make the best of what the maker gives I tried, so goodbye again Now I'm livin' on a resurrection Reborn with a gun in hand No time for weekend mind I tried, so goodbye again

You never know what you will find When you take the road less traveled by And keep keepin', keep on keepin' on You're dream dreamin', dreamin' up a song You'll pull those roots up out the ground The tree will fall without a sound And you'll feel the pain of all you know When you got to reap just what you sow You keep keepin', keep on keepin' on You're dream dreamin', dreamin' up a song There is a road that takes you home Not easy found, but often shown You keep keepin', keep on keepin' on You're dream dreamin', dreamin' up a song
