You Cant Tell Me Nothin
1986 harley
Blowing smoke and sucking oil
My daddy said,buy it and youre crazy boy
You cant tell me nothin
It took me a year to fix it up
And one day to lay her down
I got a little hitch in my get-along now
You cant tell me nothin
Talk is cheap and free advice
Is worth the price you pay
I had to find out for myself the hard way
You cant tell me nothin
Hometown homecoming sweetheart
Nobody thought I had a prayer
Her mama said,
Boy,dont you come around here
You cant tell me nothin
They say be careful what you wish for
I want to be her man
Two babies and a trailer later here I am
You cant tell me nothin
Talk is cheap and free advice
Is worth the price you pay
I had to find out for myself the hard way
You cant tell me nothin
They say drinking will kill you
The same thing for rolling smokes
But thats two of the three things that I like most
You cant tell me nothin
I know what the good book preaches
But I know how I am
I just hope somebody up there understands
You cant tell me nothin

Good Advice Is Free
Looking up and down the street,
Before one goes across...
May save one's life without the strife.
And prevent paying a cost.
This advice is free.
This advice is free.
No matter what it is one thinks,
Agony is mean.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Before you pout and give me looks,
About something I say.
Open up your ears a moment,
Don't push me away.
This advice is free.
This advice is free.
No matter what you think of me...
I'm not your enemy.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Why do people get offended,
By a truth that's told.
But lies they seem to cling onto,
And then sell their own souls.
To leave them feeling...so low!
This advice is free.
No fee paid.
This advice is free.
No matter what expense is paid,
Good advice is free.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Why do people get offended,
By a truth that's told.
But lies they seem to cling onto,
And then sell their own souls.
To leave them feeling....so low!
This advice is free.
No fee paid.
This advice is free.
No matter what expense is paid,
Good advice is free.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Looking up and down the street,
Before one goes across...
May save one's life without the strife.
And prevent paying a cost.
Before you pout and give me looks,
About something I say.
Open up your ears a moment,
Don't push me away.
Good advice is free.
Good advice is free.
No matter what you think of me...
Good advice is free.
Good advice is free.
No fee paid.
Good advice is free.
No matter what expense is paid,
Think of preventing the agony.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Nah, nah, nah-nah.
Nah, nah, nah-nah, nah-nah NAH!

Nothing is less sincere than our mode of asking and giving advice. He who asks seems to have a deference for the opinion of his friend, while he only aims to get approval of his own and make his friend responsible for his action. And he who gives advice repays the confidence supposed to be placed in him by a seemingly disinterested zeal, while he seldom means anything by his advice but his own interest or reputation.

Freeness kills the spirit
Soon after television came into being,
Movies were shone seldom; so are their songs.
Now in multitude, they go cheap with no takers..
Don’t crave for free sex, which will kill its lure.

Don’t be cheap
Buy not a thing because it’s cheap.
Don’t let others make you cheap.
To be greedy is to be cheap.
To be selfish is to be cheap.
To poke your nose is a cheap thing.
Don’t be cheap; better be poor.

He who will not take cheap advice, will have to buy dear repentance.
Anybody who thinks talk is cheap should get some legal advice.

Tired Eyes
Well he shot four men in a cocaine deal
And he left them lyin in an open field
Full of old cars with bullet holes in the mirrors.
He tried to do his best but he could not.
Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.
Well, it wasnt supposed to go down that way.
But they burned his brother, you know,
And they left him lying in the driveway.
They let him down with nothin.
He tried to do his best but he could not.
Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.
Well tell me more, tell me more, tell me more
I mean was he a heavy doper or was he just a loser?
He was a friend of yours.
What do you mean, he had bullet holes in his mirrors?
He tried to do his best but he could not.
Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.
Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.

Advice
We travel down so many roads,
during the course of our lives.
Occasionally we have to stop awhile,
and ask someone for advice.
Not all advice is good,
and nor is it bad.
However, advice is advice;
to all we should take heed.
A little help is always welcome,
from where ever it may come.
It’s just how we use it,
which makes it good or bad.

Over Use
A quote goes cheap if over used.
A queen goes cheap if over seen.
A guest goes cheap if overstayed.
Otherwise also they’ll expire stale

None
The only advice I would give to someone?
Someone who has not lived and yet been stung?
Someone who has not experienced obstacles,
Or believe they can live without facing one?
Or being bitten by defeat...
Even while crawling to stand onto their own two feet.
Most times doing that publicly!
And having no family or friends to plead in defense.
Or to protect or shelter agonies wept repeatedly.
Hmmm,
Lets see...
The only advice I would give to someone?
Honestly?
Would be none!
And they would eventually understand,
That was the best advice to them I gave!
No tasks are completed on free passes.
None!
Although many believe they can succeed,
By hopping the fence.
To later realize,
They have no idea what game is being played.
Or how to go about pretending they do!
Or...
To who they'll try to fool to play incompetently.
There's enough mediocrity already certifiable,
On several fields of endeavor.
So none would be my best advice to give.

Owt Fer Nowt
‘No subscription fee
No fines for late returns
No charges at the library’
Whoopee! It’s free!
A man giving away
A very old car
Put a sign outside his house
Whoopee! It’s free!
And nobody came
It was too cheap
Too cheap by far
So he upped the stakes
Fifty pounds said the bright new sign
And before he turned his back
Somebody had stolen the very old car
The car priced at fifty quid
So the moral is:
‘Not even a thief likes owt fer nowt

What Would You Do?
Your opinions and my activities,
Are on separate paths.
That is why I'm not seen,
In your presence too often.
Or what you may say to me...
Seldom lasts.
I wonder how much your life would improve...
If you took your own advice,
And followed through!
Where would you be?
And when you arrived there...
What would you do?

Love Or Something Like It
Show me a bar with a good lookin woman
then just get out of my way
show me the jukebox, i'll tell you a song you should play
sooner a later a few shots of bourbon
and i'll think of somethin to say
whoa, I can take her or leave her
but I like to take her away
Liquor and music, a good combination
if you've got love on the brain
I never knew two women who acted the same
some want a drink first
and some want to just sit and talk
whoa, oh, it's two in the morning
I'm running and she wants to walk
Something's got a hold on me
it's cheap but it ain' free
love or somethin like it's got a hold on me
That's when I asked her
my place or your place
I hope I'm not out of line
I asked the wrong thing
but just the right woman this time
cause she knew a hotel
she even had a name we could sign
whoa, oh, the cheaper the grapes are
the sweeter the taste of the wine
Something's got a hold on me
it's cheap but it ain' free
love or somethin like it's got a hold on me
Something's got a hold on me
it's cheap but it ain't free
love or somethin like it's got a hold on me
love or somethin damn near like it's got a hold on me
