Best Opening Lyrics

[Tradewind]

Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up, I close my eye

Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to

bout time, Harley

 

[Tradewind]

The sound of your footsteps
Telling me that you're near....

 

[Just Me]

Honey, don't you be yellin' at me when I'm cleaning my gun.

 

[Outlaw99]

I’m lonsome I’m happy, I’m rich but I’m broke, and the good Lord knows the reason, I’m just a cowpoke

 

[JV842]

Well, my name's John Lee Pettimore
Same as my daddy and his daddy before
You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here
He only come to town about twice a year
He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line
Everybody knew that he made moonshine
Now, the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad
Headed up the holler with everything he had
Before my time, but I've been told
He never come back from Copperhead Road

 

[JV842]

Hey pretty baby are you ready for me
Yeah it's your good rockin' daddy down from Tennessee
I'm just out of Austin bound for San Antone
With the radio blastin' and the bird dog on

 

[elkduds]

Bus stop, wet day
She's there, I say
Please share my umbrella

 

[Southern Elk]

Hey pretty baby are you ready for me
Yeah it's your good rockin' daddy down from Tennessee
I'm just out of Austin bound for San Antone
With the radio blastin' and the bird dog on

There ain’t a lot that you can do in this town.
You drive down to lake and then you turn back around.
You go to school and you learn to read and write,
So you can walk into the county bank and sign away your life.

 

[Nick87]

Scarecrow on a wooden cross blackbird in the barn
Four hundred empty acres that used to be my farm
I grew up like my daddy did my grandpa cleared this land
When I was five I walked the fence while grandpa held my hand

One of the most underrated songs imo.

 

[Just Me]

One of the most underrated songs imo.

Great song. Great writer

 

[Tradewind]

Makin' a livin' the old, hard way
takin' and givin' by day by day
I dig snow and rain and bright sunshine.......

 

[Tradewind]

One for @fishing4sanity


Now when you're feeling low
and the fish won't bite....

 

[Southern Elk]

I’m breaking rocks in the hot sun.
I fought the law and the law won.

 

[noharleyyet]

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

 

[noharleyyet]

One, two, three
Turn it up


Big wheels keep on turnin'
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin' songs about the Southland
I miss ol' 'Bamy once again
And I think it's a sin, yes


Well, I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around, anyhow

 

[Tradewind]

Well, my name's John Lee Pettimore
Same as my daddy and his daddy before
You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here
He only come to town about twice a year
He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line
Everybody knew that he made moonshine
Now, the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad
Headed up the holler with everything he had
Before my time, but I've been told
He never come back from Copperhead Road

you and I seem to just about have the same play list

 

[Tradewind]

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Hmmm

 

[elkduds]

As the son of a son of a sailor
I went out on the sea for adventure,
expanding the view of the captain and crew
like a man just released from indenture.

 

[elkduds]

One for the money, two for the show
three to get ready, now go cat go
