Can't stand pop country.. But I love bluegrass and pretty much all other country.
Here's a few tracks off one of my all-time favorite country albums! 12 Golden Country Greats! Enjoy!
This was the last song we played at my moms funeral..I picked it out to be played because I think it's beautiful.. The quality of this recording
isn't great but I still really enjoy it...
What do you mean I don't believe in god?
I talk to him every day.
What do you mean I don't support your system?
I go to court when I have to.
What do you mean I can't get to work on time?
I got nothing better to do
And, what do you mean I don't pay my bills?
Why do you think I'm broke?
Huh?!
If there's a new way,
I'll be the first in line,
But,
it better work this time.
What do you mean I hurt your feelings?
I didn't know you had any feelings.
What do you mean I ain't kind?
I'm just not your kind.
What do you mean I couldn't be president of the United States of America?
Tell me something,
its still we the people,
right?!
If there's a new way
I'll be the first in line,
but,
it better work this time.
I got up feeling so down
I got off being sold out
I've kept the movie rolling
But the story's getting old now
I just looked in the mirror
And things aren't looking so good
I'm looking California
And feeling Minnesota
So now you know
(Who gets mystified)
So now you know
(Who gets mystified)
Show me the power child, I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies, gives me away
'Til I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling, Im feeling
Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined
Someone let the dogs out
They'll show you where the truth is
The grass is always greener
Where the dogs are shedding
I'm feeling that I'm sober
Even though I'm drinking
I can't get any lower
Still I feel I'm sinking
So now you know
(Who gets mystified)
So now you know
(Who gets mystified)
Show me the power child, I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies, gives me away
'Til I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling, Im feeling
Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined
Outshined
So now you know
(Who gets mystified)
Show me the power child, I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies, gives me away
'Til I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling, Im feeling
Show me the power child, I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
It gives me the butterflies, gives me away
'Til I'm up on my feet again
I'm feeling, Im feeling
Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined
"Higher Ground"
lyrics by Stevie Wonder with additional material by Anthony Kiedis
People
Keep on learnin'
Soldiers
Keep on warrin'
World,
Keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long.
Powers
Keep on lyin',
While your people
Keep on dyin'
World,
Keep on turnin',
Cause it won't be too long.
Chorus:
I'm so darn glad He let me try it again,
'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin.
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then.
Gonna keep on tryin' till I reach the highest ground.
Teachers,
Keep on teachin'
Preachers,
Keep on preachin',
World
Keep on turnin',
'Cause it won't be too long.
Oh, no
Lovers,
Keep on lovin'
While believers
Keep on believin'.
Sleepers,
Just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long.
Oh, no!
Chorus
(Spoken) An' Stevie knows that, uh, no-body's gonna bring me down.
Till I reach the highest ground.
(Spoken) 'cause me 'n' Stevie, see, we're gonna be a sailin' on the funky sound
Till I reach the highest ground.
(Spoken) Bustin' out, an I'll break you out, 'cause I'm sailin' on.
Till I reach the highest ground
(Spoken)Just, uh, sailin' on sailin' on to higher ground
Till I reach the highest ground
