You'd just say the same old thing
That you be sayin' all along,
Just lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut,
Till I'm gone.
Understand Your Man... Johnny Cash

It's goin' down tonight
Now there pullin' up
We got the jacked up trucks slap covered in mud
Bikini tops and Daisy Duke denim
Hoppin' out singin' outlaw women down on
Our side of the barbed wire...
Kick it in the Sticks

Forgot my woman, lost my friends
Things I'd done, where I've been
Sleep in sweat the mirrors cold
See my face, it's growin' old
Scared to death no reason why
Do whatever to get me by
Think about the things I said
Read the page it's cold and dead

It's many a fine lady that's walked along beside me
with their flesh made of velvet and their eyes made of rain.
Some tried to hold me, to hurt me, to hide me
and some turned away not to look back again.

One stood among them I remember most clearly
Her sorrows were heavy and her laughter was slow.
I courted her gently, and I loved her most dearly,
and I came her majestic reflections to know.

Her words like a mountain stood lonely and lofty,
with her face like a daydream and her hair like the shawl
worn by a mourner as he steals away softly
From them who would have him mourn nothing at all


--Townes Van Zandt

So our good times starts and ends/ without dollar one to spend/ but how much, baby, do we really need?

- I forget who wrote that for the Monkees
John Stewart of the Kingston Trio?
They also had a song written by Mr. Neil Diamond..... I’m a Believer.
He also wrote A little bit me, a little bit you, which definitely sounds like Neil Diamond work.

Jack was sittin poker faced, bullets backed with bitches
Neal was at the wheel keepin everyone in stitches
Braggin about some nurse he screwed while drivin through Nebraska
And when she came she honked the horn and Neal just barely missed a truck

Mother died and left me reckless,
Daddy died and left me wild
No, I'm not good lookin'
but I'm some sweet woman's angel child
