Key of E | (A harp)
No sight of the man on the interstate, spent a mess of time trucking on the road today
I got a one-way ticket babe the diesel down and I’m blowing off some doors as I pass each town
As I pass each town, lord I pass each town
As I pass each town, laying that diesel down
CHORUS 2X
IF you’re gonna do it, do it right. Grab your little woman, treat her right!!!
Like a shotgun kick, I move as fast I can, yes that’s the signature style of a do right man
I know every action means the word to you that why I’m driving so late to bring the goods to you
Bring the goods to you, Bring the goods to you
Bring the goods to you, Baby that’s just what I do
CHORUS 2X
IF you’re gonna do it, do it right. Grab your little woman, treat her right!!!
Well it’s late at night and I need to know, just what kind of love you’ve just got in store
I know outside its just a drizzling rain,so won’t you start a fire in the hearth again.
In the hearth again, lord in the hearth again
In the hearth again, Light a fire in the hearth again
CHORUS 2X
IF you’re gonna do it, do it right. Grab your little woman, treat her right!!!

Terrible Thing to Waste | To Love a Wild Fire
Scarlett Fire | Grateful Dead
Scarlet Begonias | Cover
Key of E Major | (A harp)
As I was walkin’ ’round Grosvenor Square
Not a chill to the Winter but a nip to the air
From the other direction, she was calling my eye
It could be an illusion, but I might as well try, might as well try
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
And I knew, without askin’, she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls
In the thick of the evening, when the dealing got rough
She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff
As I picked up my matches and was closing the door
I had one of those flashes I’d been there before, been there before
F#
Well, I ain’t always right, but I’ve never been wrong
Seldom turns out the way it does in a song
Once in a while, you get shown the light
In the strangest of places if you look at it right
Well, there ain’t nothing wrong with the way she moves
Scarlet begonias or a touch of the blues
And there’s nothing wrong with the look that’s in her eyes
Had to learn the hard way to let her pass by, let her pass by
Wind in the willow’s playin’ “Tea For Two”
The sky was yellow, and the sun was blue
Strangers stoppin’ strangers just to shake their hand
Everybody’s playing in the heart of gold band, heart of gold band
Fire On the Mountain | Cover
Key of E Major | (A harp). Modulate to F# Reggae to Flow into Ragtop
Long-distance runner, what you standin’ there for?
Get up, get up, get out of the door
You’re playin’ cold music on the barroom floor
Drowned in your laughter and dead to the core
There’s a dragon with matches that’s loose on the town
Takes a whole pail of water just to cool him down, yeah
Fire, fire on the mountain 4X
Almost ablaze, still you don’t feel the heat
It takes all you got just to stay on the beat
You say it’s a livin’, we all gotta eat
But you’re here alone, there’s no one to compete
If Mercy’s a business, I wish it for you
More than just ashes when your dreams come true
Fire, fire on the mountain 4X
Long distance runner, what you holdin’ out for?
Caught in slow motion in a dash through the door
The flame from your stage has now spread to the floor
You gave all you had, why you wanna give more?
The more that you give, the more it will take
To the thin line beyond which you really can’t fake, yeah
Fire, fire on the mountain 4X

Leroy was a farmer and an honest man
Would have lived in Oklahoma all his days
He just wanted left alone to work a piece of land
But a hard wind come and blew his dreams away
So he headed for the West Coast thought he could not lose
Rollin’ down the highway with the dustbowl blues
It’s a thousand miles from Broken Bow to Bakersfield
And the highway’s paved with heartaches all the way
Leroy drove on lookin’ for a better deal
A place a man could settle down and stay
But the police at the state line beat him black and blue
Left him lyin’ by the roadside with the dustbowl blues
They say California is a paradise
Hollywood turns night time into day
But up along the San Joaquin those city lights
Might as well be a million miles away
When your kids are cold and hungry wearin’ worn out shoes
Standin’ in the garden with the dustbowl blues
Texas Eagle | Steve Earl
Texas Eagle
E7
My Grandaddy was a railroad man
B7 E
When I was young he took me by the hand
E7
Drugged me to the station at the break of dawn
B7 E
Said “boy I got to show you somethin’ ‘fore it’s gone”
A7
She was blue and silver – she was right on time
E B7 E
We rode that Texas Eagle on the Mopac line
We had some sandwiches that Granma packed
We rode to Palestine and hitchhiked back
Home in time for supper with a tale to tell
That night I dreamed I heard that lonesome whistle wail
When I got old enough to ridee the train alone
I’d ride that Texas Eagle up from San Antone
SOLO
Nowadays they don’t make no trains
Just the piggyback freighters and them Amtrak things
They shut the Eagle down awhile ago
Sold it to the railroad down in Mexico
But every now and then that whistle’s on my mind
I ride that Texas Eagle ‘cross the borderline

Without a warning you broke my heart, takin’ it baby, tore it apart

Come on baby, baby please come on baby, cause I’m on my knees

On a greyhound bus,Lord i’m traveling this morning
GD
I’m going to Shreveport and on down to New Orleans
G D
Been driving these highways,been doing things my way
DC GD
It’s been making me lonesome,on’ry and mean
Now her hair was jet black,and her name was Codiene
Thought she was the cream of the Basin Street queens
She got tired of that smokey whine dream
Began to feel lonesome,on’ry and mean
We got together,and we cashed in our sweeps
Gave them to a beggar who was mumbling through the streets
There’s no escaping from his snowy white dreams
Born lookin’ lonesome,on’ry and mean
Now i’m down in this valley,where the wheels turn so low
At dawn i pray,to the Lord of my soul
I say do Lord,do right by me
I’m tired of being lonesome,on’ry and mean

Rhinestone suits and new shiny cars

Somebody told me when I came to Nashville
Son, you’ve finally got it made
Ol Hank made it here
And we’re all sure that you will
But I don’t think Hank done it this way
Naw, I don’t think Hank done this way
(instrumental)
Ten years on the road makin’ one night stands
Speeding my young life away
Tell me one more time just so’s I’ll understand
Are you sure Hank done it this way?
Did ol Hank really do it this way?
(instrumental)
Lord I’ve see the world with a five-piece band
Looking at the backside of me
Singing my songs, one of his now and then
But I don’t think Hank done ’em this way
No I don’t think Hank done ’em this way

G”’ F”’
G
If there were seventeen cars out in my back yard,
F
The boys in blue were calling my name,
G
Semi-automatics up on the rooftop,
F
They just wanted to talk to me,
G
I’d tell them what they wanted to hear,
F
The only thing that I knew:
G
Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
F
Couldn’t drag me back to you.
Everywhere you go, there’s a train wreck, baby,
Everywhere you go, there’s a runaway train,
Breaking my heart like a bottleneck, baby,
Sliding up and down and pulling its strings.
Everywhere you go, everybody knows,
You’re looking for someone to do.
Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
Couldn’t drag me back to you.
If I was a brakeman, if I was a switchman,
If I was an engineer,
I’d take that train on down the line
And clear on out of here.
If I was the man swinging the lantern,
I’d swing it ’til it was blue.
Forty-nine tons of diesel locomotive
Couldn’t drag me back to you.

E – E7
Streak of lightning coming down the highway
Turn around and watch it go
Switch on the lights, turn on the high beams
Better find a preacher on the radio
A – A7
I like to drive at a hundred and five, it’s just how fast I gotta go
E – E7
I got the gears and I got the motor, ain’t no reason to go slow
A – A7
I like the speed, I like the motion, I like the rockin’ machine.
E – E7
I like to drive at a hundred and five, better hurry up if you want to catch me.
Neon signs a-streaking by like something in your eye.
Elvis on the radio almost makes you cry.
Flashing lights in the rear view you don’t pay them any mind.
Step on the gas, pull out to pass, leave them far behind.
I like to drive at a hundred and five, it’s just how fast I gotta go
I got the gears and I got the motor, ain’t no reason to go slow
I like the speed, I like the motion, I like the rockin’ machine.
I like to drive at a hundred and five, better hurry up if you want to catch me.
Better hurry up if you want to catch me.
(First four lines of verse done instrumentally)
You shouldn’t oughta done it honey, you shouldn’t oughta run around
But two can be on that highway darlin’, and I’m the one who’s out there now.
I like the speed, I like the motion, I like the rockin’ machine.
I like to drive at a hundred and five, better hurry up if you want to catch me.
Better hurry up if you want to catch me. Better hurry up if you want to catch me.

Baby come join me you can be my guest
I’ll take the wheel you take a rest
Baby take a seat you can rest your eyes
Lay back your head, take in that blue sky
Sun always shines when I’m with you cant think of nothing I’d rather do
Gonna be so good, you with me, winds at our back down to the sea
Baby come join Me
Baby come join me you can be my guest
I’ll take the wheel you take a rest
Baby take a seat you can rest your eyes
Lay back your head, take in that blue sky
Dream of that night that I held you in a field of fireflies till the morning dew
When I first met you the moon filled the sky, turned your eyes blue all through the night
Remember Me…. Cause I remember you
Baby come join me you can be my guest
I’ll take the wheel you take a rest
Baby take a seat you can rest your eyes
Lay back your head, take in that blue sky
Your all questions I ask to the sky, you are my night and my day
All is aligned when I look to your eyes, you are the answer, my love
Aint Wasting Time No More | Cover
Last Sunday morning, the sunshine felt like rain
The week before, they all seemed the same
With the help of God and true friends, I’ve come to realize
I still have two strong legs, and even wings to fly
So I, ain’t a-wasting time no more
‘Cause time goes by like hurricanes and faster things
Well, Lord, Lord, Miss Sally, why all your cryin’?
Been around here three long days, lookin’ like we’re dyin’
Go step yourself outside, and look up at the stars above
And go on downtown, baby, find somebody to love
Meanwhile I, ain’t a-wasting time no more
‘Cause time goes by like hurricanes and faster things
You don’t need no gypsy to tell you why, Ya can’t let one precious day to slip by
Well, look inside yourself, and if you don’t see what you want, Maybe sometimes then ya don’t
But, leave your mind alone and just get high
Well, by and by, way after many years have gone
And all the war freaks die off, leavin’ us alone
We’ll raise our children, in the peaceful way we can
It’s up to you and me brother, To try and try again
So, hear us now, we ain’t wastin’ time no more
‘Cause time rolls by like hurricanes
Runnin’ after the subway train
Don’t forget the pourin’ rain

Like a bullet baby how we run
Steer me babe with a gentle hand
On into that old boy sun

Greased back I shine like lighting, leg up mamma and take a ride

Steer me babe with a gentle hand
On into that old boy sun
escending Bass Verse———
Your desert is of the rarest beauty, I’ve never seen the like
Your sands they give me my water, Your sun keeps me alive
Race down the pacific ocean
Run down those Mexico sands
Just for nothing babe, just cause I want to
Gonna fly all across these lands
Motor Kine don’t take low octane
Get yourself out and buy me some premium fuel
Motor Kine don’t run on that cheap stuff
Ease your hand mamma, keep me cool
Race down the pacific ocean
Run down those Mexico sands
Just for nothing babe, just cause I want to
Gonna fly all across these lands
