Track Lyrics
Mississippi Blood Lyrics
[Verse 1]
[JVZ:] She’s got Mississippi Blood running through her veins
Her mama was a looker from New Orleans
[RM:] Daddy worked hard with a gun in his boot
Blow you away click bang boom boom
[JVZ:] Good ol’ dude said she broke his heart
Threw it on the ground – stomped it hard
[RM:] But I wanna tell you a little song I know
Before they be carving my name in stone
[Chorus]
[BOTH:] Oooh Oooh
[JVZ:] She’s a dirty little thing – crazy as hell
[BOTH:] Oooh Oooh
[RM:] She’s my rock-n’-roll queen – sweet southern bell
[BOTH:] Oooh Oooh
[JVZ:] She’s a lipstick stain on a burned cigarette
[BOTH:] Oooh Oooh
[Verse 2]
[JVZ:] Like an old blues song stuck in my head
Mississippi mud and I’m sinking in
[BOTH:] Oooh Oooh
[BOTH:] Oooh Oooh
[BOTH:] Cut off jeans, tied t-shirt
Drinkin’ from the bottle – rolling in the dirt
Foot on the gas – el camino
“Ridin’ With the King” on the Radio
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
[BOTH:] Like an old blues song stuck in my head
Mississippi mud and I’m sinking in
She reads from the good book just to be bad
Lying in the hay – she likes to move fast
An old blues song stuck in my head
Work all day and
[Chorus]
[Outro]
[BOTH:] Like an old blues song stuck in my head
[JVZ:] Mississippi mud and I’m sinking in
Nothing Comes Easy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh another hot cup of coffee – I’m up at 5 am
These old worn out working boots look like these beat up hands
But I get up and I do it – because people depend on me
Trying to keep my faith in this American Dream
Paychecks going down
Prices are going up
Takes most of my money just to fill my pick-up truck
[Chorus]
Nothing Comes Easy – trying to feed my family
Nothing Comes Easy – for a working class like me
I’ve been doing time on the line – listen you don’t understand
Nothing comes easy
Nothing comes easy
[Verse 2]
Let’s put back the pieces to this broken promised land
All this crazy spending – I don’t understand
Politicians preaching – but it don’t never change
Same ol’ lines and bullshit – might as well flush it all down the drain
Nobody wants to say it – but I’m gonna speak my mind
We’re all in this together but we’re running out of time
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Not for a man like me
Yeah when your back’s up against the wall
And the wolf’s knocking at your door
LISTEN MR. PRESIDENT BECAUSE WE CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE
[Chorus]
Honey Hole Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a little place down in Jackson County
Right off the river road
If you wanna take a ride to the end of the rainbow
Find yourself a pot of gold
Everybody asks me where I'm going
Yeah everybody wants to know
Your sister says she wants to come along with me
I know she really wants to go
Yeah I know she really wants to go
[Chorus]
Down, Down, Down, Down
Down is where I wanna go
Down, Down, Down, Down
Down to the Honey Hole
[Verse 2]
If you wanna check it out on a hot summer night
Climb over the garden wall
Grab your little baby and hold her tight
Underneath the sugar falls
Underneath the sugar falls
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Sugarcane grows wild in the fields
Like corn sticky yellow sweet
Late at night you can hear 'em all buzzing
Searching for the Queen bee
Calling for the Queen bee
[Chorus]
Poor Man’s Dream Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There ain't no poor man
Born with a silver spoon
And there ain't no wise man
Who learned it all in school
A politician's promise
Can make you feel like a fool
But when they get the power
They're the first to break the golden rule
[Chorus 1]
We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule
[Chorus 2]
Climb that mountain
Reach the sky
Hanging on for a good laugh
For a piece of that American pie
Hey nothings easy
Nothings for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that's a poor man's dream
[Verse 2]
Hey Mr. walton
Lend me a dime
You know I'll repay ya
But it's going to take me some time
I'm standing at the crossroads
Just about to roll the dice
I got a dream in my heart
Whatever it takes
I know I gotta pay the price
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
[Bridge]
Hey nothings easy
Nothings for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that's a poor man's dream
[Outro]
Oh... It's a poor man's dream
Do It Up Right Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah she's sitting at the table looking down at her drink
She's always on time - I'm always running late
Yeah I was on my way
But I got sidetracked
Yeah Gary called me up
Said Rickey's in a jam
Come on over brother - She'll understand
Meet me at the truck
We got some planning to do
[Chorus]
I've been bad
I've been good
Don't always do the things that I should
When I go - I go all night
But when I do it wrong
I do it up right
[Verse 2]
I looked at my watch - it was a quarter to three
I knew she'd be up there waiting on me
I-I-I-I got some explaining to do
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
So I headed straight home
I ain't gonna lie
Ain't got no excuses
No alibi's
I said I was sorry
She said I've heard it before
Some come on over here boy
[Chorus][x2]
[Outro]
Baby I do it up right
Oh I'm going to do it up right
Oh, I do it up right
