Love Ton

Back when I was twenty-two, packed my gear and up and moved
Didn't know what else to do
Found a place in Oregon, settled down and had some fun
I still had the urge to run
It had only just begun
Your love it weighed a ton
And it rolled right over me
Then we moved your things up north, where we'd never been before
And it rocked me to the core
Your love it weighed a ton, and it sent me on the run
It had only just begun
It had only just begun
Your love it weighed a ton
And it rolled right over me
You're rolling down the tracks
And my heart starts beating fast
But I know I can't go back
You roll right over me
It had only just begun
Your love it weighed a ton
It had only just begun
Your love it weighed a ton
And it rolled right over me

Well mommas, they hate me, but sometimes they save me
From loving a girl that I've been loving lately
They don't even know me, but oh how they know me
That I'm fixin' to run away
So I take to the riverside
Going where the water wants for me
Yeah I take to the riverside
Follow it down to Tennessee
I'm broke, stoned and jobless, I'd rather be homeless
Than work for a man that is rich, fake and soulless
So I keep on moving, I love to keep moving
It's just my cure for restlessness
So I take to the riverside
Going where the water wants for me
Yeah I take to the riverside
Follow it down to Tennessee
It's crazy how the heart can lead the man
The heart don't need no maps, blueprints, or plans
It needs no plans
So I take to the riverside
Going where the water wants for me
Yeah I take to the riverside
Follow it down to Tennessee
So I take to the riverside
Going where the water wants for me
Yeah I take to the riverside
Follow it down to Tennessee
Follow it down to Tennessee
Follow it back to Tennessee

Dusty Feet

Got a lady I'd like to see
But she's living there in Kentucky
So now I'm moving my dusty feet
Gettin' closer to Kentucky
Her smile is lightning, and a voice that charms
Like to hold that girl up in my arms
Soon enough though, I won't be far
I'll be holding her up in my arms
When I decided I'm headed home
I didn't mean a place I know
When I'm out here I am all alone
But now I'm headed home
When I'll see her, I just don't know
I'm still seeing lots of snow
Cause I'm stuck here in Colorado
But now I'm headed home
But, now I'm headed home
Yes, now I'm headed home
Got a lady waiting for me
I hope that she can love the soul she sees
Cause I've been ramblin', doing bad things
But I promise that ain't really me

Tennessee Chill

Tennessee, you stole my heart
The night that we were laying, looking at the stars
Speaking soft, not thinking hard
A night that I'll remember well
Crystal sky, and Tennessee was cold as hell
The mountain air gave us a chill
Wedding bells, they still ring
With our friends, we stayed up all night and we'd drink
Every song we knew, we'd sing
And I couldn't stray my thoughts
From what it'd be like to have you around, a lot
After all the years that you forgot my name
Forgot my name, my name
Forgot my name, my name
It's alright, it won't bring me down
As long as I can keep you around
Tennessee, you stole my heart
The night that we were laying, looking at the stars
Speaking soft, not thinking hard
A night that I'll remember well
Crystal sky, and Tennessee was cold as hell
The mountain air gave us a chill
It's alright, it won't bring me down
As long as I can keep you around

Ten Ft. Tall

Well I have been feeling right about ten feet tall
When I was a wheeling right across Arkansas
You know we ain't talkin', but you still call me on the phone
When I was a'walkin' right across Oklahom'
Hope you know that this can never be
I'll be me, you be you, there won't be no "we"
Well I have a feeling that you still say my name
Cause I have been dealing in Amarillo with the same
So I kept on moving, and you had places which to go
So I kept on doing what I was in New Mexico
Hope you know that this will never be
I'll be me, you be you, there won't be no "we"
Well now, I'm just sittin' alongside a rocky mountain road
And I've been a'wishin' that you were in Colorado
Well now, I'm just sittin' alongside a rocky mountain road
And I've been a'wishin' that you were in Colorado
That you were in Colorado
That you were in Colorado

Medicine

I don't much say the right things
But I'm always up to try things
I hope that you are, too
You get upset and say that I'm weird
But I thought that's what brought you here
I like to keep things new
Sorry, if I lead you astray
I never intend to lead that way
But I'm not much worried
Cause you're my medicine
You make life okay again
I know how good a strong drink feels
Some days, it's all three meals
But now I've got something to eat
Empty bottles and pills in my hands
Only made me more of a dead man
And I couldn't even see
Sorry, if I lead you astray
I never intend to lead that way
But I'm not much worried
Cause you're my medicine
You make life okay again
Sorry, if I lead you astray
I never intend to lead that way
But I'm not much worried
Cause you're my medicine
You make life
You make life
You make life okay again

Had some trouble in Maryland state, and I can't much say
But I'll tell you what I had to do
In Pennsylvania, stopped in for a smoke and what would you know
I found a love, I felt it true
Her name was Margaret, she's a country girl, a chilly northern girl
She never called me by my name
Packed our belongings and we headed out, going somewhat south
I thought we'd go to New Orleans
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
Down the Ohio, we found what we needed there in Kentucky
And settled just a little north
In Indiana, I bought a farm, it had southern charm
We spent our evenings on the porch
I found a factory where I could work and support her
And the baby that would soon arrive
It was a strong boy named Oliver, that did occur
And brought those smiles to our eyes
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
Days got real long, sometimes, but we did what we had to get by
Had more kids, each one got my mouth and their mother's eyes
Before too long, I turned and saw I was old and gray
I made sure my family knew I loved them, each and every day
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
In Rising Sun

I got three more hours to kill, before I'm walking up that hill
Don't know if I'll take on my days, at least until the end of May
June will be in full swing soon, 'til then just what to do
Get in trouble right on cue, see the whole night through
I'm not sure that I can meet all the people's needs
From the books and magazines that all the people read
Or something that you might see on a movie screen
So I won't try
Met a girl from way out west, I left her like all the rest
I didn't want her love no more, but these days I'm not so sure
When it's raining down on me, the only thing I see
Is just more clouds rolling in, I guess it's time to move again
I'm not sure that I can meet all the people's needs
From the books and magazines that all the people read
Or something that you might see on a movie screen
So I won't try
