Got a fast car where my money goes A hundred miles an hour seems way too slow Gonna crank up Buddy on my radio Pedal to the metal and away we go See I'm a simple man ain't hard to please Just need a tank of gas, a beer between my knees Gonna cruise on down to the rodeo Prayin God Almighty for three in a row Fast drivin, Bull ridin Strong and steady and I'm feelin' fine Bronc bustin', Gear hustlin' Over eight seconds or just under nine Well, I might be crazy but make no mistake I'll ride a Texas tornado much longer than eight And my red hot Chevy is always in time It does a quarter-mile in just under nine Fast drivin, Bull ridin Strong and steady and I'm feelin' fine Bronc bustin', Gear hustlin' Over eight seconds or just under nine Give me eight more seconds, baby I just need eight more seconds of your time, sweet baby Give me eight more itsy bitsy teensy weensy seconds, yeah Give me eight more seconds baby.. or just under nine

I was walking down an old dirt road On a night a lot like this Longin' for a hand to hold Wishin' for some lips to kiss I was lookin' for a new direction Can't find my way back home Seems life's little imperfections Teach me how to hold my own, hold my own Then she caught me in her rear view mirror Boy howdy did her lights come on She swerved around to pick me up Hopin' she could take me home Now I'd declined if I wasn't so hungry Lonely and tired and wet See it was easy to come to my senses I knew that I could place my bet, place my bet ..and she was a sure bet! Then she took me and dried me and fed me Took me on up to her bed We made love all night long By the end of the week, we were wed Now thirty odd years later On a night a lot like this I hope I think about that old dirt road And what I would have missed, oh would have missed ..So if I hadn't been so hungry, Lonely and tired and wet I woulda never known a wife and a home And the night I'll never forget, no I'll never forget I'll never forget you, baby

Grab a drink, Grab a smoke Take a swig, Take a toke Call your friends, Have some fun Everybody's gonna get them some as we ROLL OUR BLUES AWAY Don't be shy just come on by The moon is high up in the sky You're all invited, father and son There's plenty of room for everyone to ROLL THEIR BLUES In your shoulders, knees and toes Where it comes from nobody knows But we all feel it deep down in our weary bones So we're gonna ROLL OUR BLUES AWAY do you wanna ROLL YOUR BLUES AWAY? Grab a drink, Gotta grab a smoke Take a big ol' swig, Take a toke and ROLL what do you say? We're gonna ROLL OUR BLUES AWAY Do you wanna ROLL YOUR BLUES AWAY? Cuz I'm gonna ROLL MY BLUES AWAY

Golly, get me off of this train These tracks are gettin' way too long and I'm goin' insane Why the hell did I buy this ticket? Why'd I ever wanna join this game? Golly, get me off of this train Been rollin' for hours, just tryin' to find a vein And I'm hopin' the flower is gonna take away all my pain But it's got ahold of me like a ball and chain I said Golly, get me off of this train Golly, get me off of this train These tracks they're gettin' way too long & I'm goin' insane Why the hell did I buy this ticket? Why'd I ever wanna join this game? Golly, get me off of this train I hear the sound of the clickity-clack It's callin' me back like a moth to a flame It stole my soul it, fucked with my heart, it's twisted up my brain Oh, it's got ahold of me, my old ball and chain Golly, won't you please get me off of this goddamn train Golly, get me off of this train These tracks they're gettin' way too long & I'm goin' I'm goin' insane Why the hell did I buy this ticket? Why'd I ever wanna join this game? Golly, get me off of this train Golly won't you please get me off of this goddamn train

All my life I've been a slave Workin' myself right to my grave Doin' everything I can To make ends meet and pay the man I've been workin all day and my heart's on fire Cuz by the end of my shift there's still desire For a shot of whiskey and a cigarette To start the night I won't forget I'm gonna Howl at the Moon Howl at the Moon tonight I'm gonna Howl at the Moon, baby Howl at the Moon tonight I'm just a single woman out on the town Tryin' every little thing being passed around Maybe I'm just in heat tonight..? I might nip but I don't bite I'm gonna Howl at the Moon Howl at the Moon tonight I'm gonna Howl at the Moon, baby Howl at the Moon tonight
