The Moon Over Tennessee Yeah, Im hangin out with you tonight And everythings, everything feels so right Cause your bodys movin and swaying And music is soft that theyre playing And The Moon Over Tennessee is out tonight And You and Me are being washed in moonlight Come walk with me and we shall go To the places only you and me know Love, is makin everything feel so right You, are makin love with me tonight I can feel you body swayin I can hear the music playin And The Moon Over Tennessee is out tonight And You and Me are being washed in moonlight Come walk with me and we shall go To the places only you and me know So, when its time to go, you know Will I be able to see you again Another time, another place and we can go There, over and over and over again And The Moon Over Tennessee is out tonight And You and Me are being washed in moonlight Come walk with me and we shall go To the places only you and me know The Back Stage Door Seen a young boy, young standin in the middle of the stage Couldnt tell where he was from, couldnt tell his age Swinginthat guitar and singin his song I could tell that wouldnt be long Walk across the floor Through The Back Stage Door Walkin in the rain, headed down the street Headinon home, the chance to meet With destiny and fate He almost, almost couldnt wait Walk across the floor Through The Back Stage Door And hes been playin, been playin for years Passin all the adolescence and all the fears Old pawn shop guitar slung over his back Gonna know how to play it, since the railroad track Walk across the floor Through The Back Stage Door Rainy Day Blues I got here on a bus crossing the Tennesse/Virginai Line Kept on going, trying to make to Knoxville City on time That long ol bus ride never did me no good Thought it would be with you but oh if you only could These Rainy Day Blues can always try to getcha down Especially when it seems that no one else is around Been there, my friends, I can understand A person could get lost when travelin the land Had to pack my bags, in a hurry I just had to go What to do and where to go, you dont really inside, know Souls can be lost and souls can be found Dreams could be lying, broken pieces on the ground These Rainy Day Blues can always try to getcha down Especially when it seems that no one else is around Been there, my friends, I can understand A person could get lost when travelin the land It is interesting the unique ways that some started out in music business and I guess that I am no exception. My daughter, Allie had posted on one of my updates and said I should write some about my travelin days. Now I dont recommend anyone to do this at home, its a different world out there now and it probably was back then and I just didnt know and probably didnt care either way, cause I was gonna go, hell or high water.BTW, I should probably say Alex, not Allie, she used to hate that. Her birth name was Alexandria, from the Greek city and I loved Alexander the Great. I thought he really kicked butt back in the day. But anyway I have been alot of places, seen alot of things, did alot of things that I am not necessarily so proud of and did a lot of things that I am really proud of. Thus is the morality of man when he looks back on his life and wondered how I got here and where is it that I should go now. Was it worth it? In my case, yes. I was one of those who got out. I was one of those,for a lack of better words, who got away. But I still have a lot of work to do and havent even accomplished most of what I set out to do in coming to Tennessee. I was on a mission, an exodus, an obcession with supposely setting things right. Lets just say there are thousands nad thousands of roads to go and there is really only one road to go, the right one, the high one, and there peace is found and some rectifying satisfaction that you just wont die living a life that was in vain and without purpose. You always have a purpose, no matter who you are, you just have to take time and find it. And so the story continues.... A Cowboy Knows Been alot of places and I seen alot of things Know a little of love and all the heartaches it brings Been around enough to see how it all can come and go And you can bet, This Cowboy knows He knows the rain and he knows the pain He knows the callin of the road and where it goes Could just throw out my bills and catch a southbound train A Cowboy Knows Not to many places, in this modern world, you can go Maybe out West, in the horison, where the burnin suns glow You better have a hat, but they wont tell you so But a Cowboy Know He knows the rain and he knows the pain He knows the callin of the road and where it goes Could just throw out my bills and catch a southbound train A Cowboy Knows Learnin and hearin them songs playin on the radio Winter winds and autumn leaves fallin, make me shiver and cold Cause, you can bet, brother, Ive been out there on the road Wouldnt trade a minute, but I dont miss it and the truth be told A Cowboy cant help but to know He knows the rain and he knows the pain He knows the callin of the road and where it goes Could just throw out my bills and catch a southbound train A Cowboy Knows Small-Town World Old Clyde would have me run and get the paper down town He always had something for me to do when I came around It took a lil time to make it in each day But Id made it down those dusty, gravel some way And I never really knew where they would lead And I never really knew who I would turn out to be But I do remember holding the hand of that small-town girl And being from a Small-Town World The only thing we had was a small Caseys General Store One of each and everthing kind of thing, we didnt need no more Life was laid back and the choices were few But how many things did we really have to do And I never really knew where they would lead And I never really knew who I would turn out to be But I do remember holding the hand of that small-town girl And being from a Small-Town World Things have come and gone, I havent been back in quite a while But sometimes I admit I have to sit back and smile About that pretty blonde haired girl And us being From A Small-Town World And I never really knew where they would lead And I never really knew who I would turn out to be But I do remember holding the hand of that small-town girl And being from a Small-Town World Southern Summer (Kind of Day) I still feel the muddy row between my toes Barefoot, walkin the farm fields as far as I could go But somehow I always end up way back there Didnt have any worries, didnt have a care On a.....Southern Summer, kind of day Past the weepin willows and the pond along the way Bullfrogs croakin and sing theire song The roads and the rows never felt that long We ride our bikes all the way to Mexico It would start gettin dark and we would have to turn and go All the way back home and back to reality it seemed We would have to wait another day to accomplish our dreams On a.....Southern Summer, kind of day Past the weepin willows and the pond along the way Bullfrogs croakin and sing theire song The roads and the rows never felt that long Was it the time or was it the place I guess that I will never, ever really know Life now seems only to be a rat race How far to climb and how far to really go On a.....Southern Summer, kind of day Past the weepin willows and the pond along the way Bullfrogs croakin and sing theire song The roads and the rows never felt that long Everyone has their safe place to go Precious memories, and all the things that they know But I have to admit, sometimes I wish that I could go Back there, knowing now what it is that I know On a.....Southern Summer, kind of day Past the weepin willows and the pond along the way Bullfrogs croakin and sing theire song The roads and the rows never felt that long She Moves Me That Way I dont always get alot of things right in my day And some days feel like everything is goin wrong And I am looking for a place to hide away It doesnt ever really take her that long She Moves Me That Way Like the sunlight in the Mornin Casting the warm light over my day And I just cant waste my time forlornin She Moves Me That Way Her gentle kiss before I go to sleep at night And everythings gonna be ok and gonna be alright She snuggles up close to me and holds me that tight And evrything gonna be ok and gonna be alright She Moves Me That Way Like the sunlight in the Mornin Casting the warm light over my day And I just cant waste my time forlornin She Moves Me That Way I cant always keep from feelin down Pick myself from off the ground But it is the things that she would do and the things she would say She Moves Me That Way She Moves Me That Way Like the sunlight in the Mornin Casting the warm light over my day And I just cant waste my time forlornin She Moves Me That Way The Greatest Love The Greates Love, that I ever knew Was Loving you Having you in life, I never could never do Anymore again, like way back then, until you Like the rivers flow around you and me Like the clouds move, like pillows, softly Cross the skies, both day and night Ever cascading their warm, warm Light The Greates Love, that I ever knew Was Loving you Having you in life, I never could never do Anymore again, like way back then, until you So roll on highway, keep rollin on To another place thats dead and gone I found another way, a brand-new day, its true In lovin you The Greates Love, that I ever knew Was Loving you Having you in life, I never could never do Anymore again, like way back then, until you Loving you Not Really That Different At All Year and year its same old song Be a politician And now you are never wrong The Little Boy On a cold winters day I was makin my way Down the street, I heard me say Could you, mister help me and mom today You see, we used own a big house fore Daddy went away To live up with the Lord in Heavn, and before I could say He was holdin my hand and pullin me along It wont take very long and you can right whats wrong Back in a holler and under a bridge we went There stood a woman, sickly and her back was bent Quiet and shy, a lil embarassed of her situation I think Was washing some dishes near the streams brink I gave them some money, I had to get away that day But the memory of that little boy in my mind still burns in a way Of how sometimes I have trouble, there was nothin I did say For everything I had and everything they didnt still haunts me today Years and years have gone like currents in the streams Sometimes they still haunt my dreams That little boy, his hope and his torn lil jacket seams And the vision of his MaMa, warming herself in the sunbeams. Me and You Through all the struggles and the pain in life I am so very glad that I made you my wife But all the problems of the present day Could never, ever take me away Me and You And the sunlight in the morning Me and You And the darkness of the night Its Me and You And the sunlight in the morning And the cover of the darkness at night Watching you go, back and forth, what you have to do Seeing you, and knowing everything you going through It will always be a light It will always be alright Me and You And the sunlight in the morning Me and You And the darkness of the night Its Me and You And the sunlight in the morning And the cover of the darkness at night
