Hell High Water
By dickey betts
(c) 1980 emi blackwood music inc. and pangola publishing company
Weve been through hell and high water,
Ready to go through it all again.
As long as weve got a quarter between us all,
Were gonna have money to spend, oh.
Kicked down the doors in new orleans,
We got busted at grove hill where nobody goes,
And long bob drove us to the badlands,
You can bet your ass were gonna make it down to tomorrow nights show.
Chorus:
We took time by the horns,
Cryin out loud,
Stood there naked up there in front of the crowd,
Been a million miles,
On a lost highway,
They might name a street after us one of these days.
Oh, weve seen the good times, weve seen the bad.
Worse time we ever seen, is the best some folks ever had,
And the stone mowed us down, with a cold-hearted quill,
But we aint changed our ways, and I guess we never will.

Keep on keepin on
By dickey betts and daniel toler
(c) 1980 emi blackwood music inc. and pangola publishing company
Tried everything I know,
Held my hand but now Ive got to show.
Trying to understand the things youve learned,
But you dont seem to be concerned at all.
Chorus:
Im gonna keep on keepin on,
Aint gonna leave you alone,
Keep on keepin on,
Aint gonna leave you alone,
Gonna get you to love me.
Sometimes it seems like theres just no way at all,
You just keep drifting and drifting away.
You aint never home, when I call you on the telephone,
But Im gonna fool around, get you back someday.
Chorus
I dont care what everybodys gotta say,
Im gonna love you anyway,
Even if you dont care any longer,
My little bit of love keeps getting stronger.
Chorus
Lord Im gonna, keep on keepin on.
Gonna, make you mine. love me...yeah.

Keep On Trying
Everybody is lazy
Nobody wants to do anything
Everyones crazy
At times I think Ive had enough of it
Living together
Its not a easy thing to begin
Making life a little better
Takes the power of your second please
Ive been around to love
Im trying hard, I know
I havent reach my ball
Ill do what I have to do
Someday well see it through
As long as I have you
Weve got to keep on pushing
(weve got to keep on pushing)
Weve got to keep on trying
(weve got to keep on trying)
Weve got to keep on pushing

Full Circle
Youve seen me naked in more ways than one
Youve seen me done up, seen me come undone
Weve cried in the darkness, weve laughed in the sun
Weve been forever, yet weve just begun
Chorus:
Weve come full circle, all the way round
Through the good times, the bad times, through lifes ups and downs
Still weve stayed together throught thick and through thin
Yes, weve come full circle
Thank god, were still friends
You know the soft spots under my skin
Deep down inside me, where no one has been
And weve sailed troubled waters, weve soared on the wind
But times only sweetened this love that were in
Chorus:
And weve come full circle, all the way round
Throught the good times and bad times, through lifes ups and downs
Still weve stayed together through thick and through thin
Yes, weve come full circle
Thank god, were still friends
Tag chorus:
Weve cried in the darkness, laughed in the sun
Weve come full circle and weve just begun
Weve come full circle, weve been all the way round
Weve come full circle, weve been all the way round
You know weve cried in the darkness, and weve laughed in the sun
Weve stayed together, and weve just begun
Fade:
Weve come full circle, weve been all the way round
Im so glad youre still my friend
Weve come full circle, and Id do it all again

In The Good Old Days (When Times Where Bad)
Wed get up before sun-up to get the work done up
Wed work in the fields till the sun had gone down
Weve stood and weve cried as we have bristly watched
A hailstorm a beatin our crops to the ground
Weve gone to bed hungry many nights in the past
In the good old days when times were bad
Chorus:
No amount of money could buy from me
The memories that I have of then
No amount of money could pay me
To go back and live through it again
Ive seen daddys hands break open and bleed
And Ive seen him work till hes stiff as a board
An Ive seen momma layin in suffer and sickness
In need of a doctor we couldnt afford
Anything at all was more than we had
In the good old days when times were bad
Weve got up before and found ice on the floor
Where the wind would blow snow through the cracks in the wall
And I couldnt enjoy then, havin a boyfriend
I had nothing decent to wear at all
So I long for a love that I never had
In the good old days when times were bad
Repeat chorus

I Got A Right To Be Wrong
By dickey betts
(c) 1980 emi blackwood music inc. and pangola publishing company
Oh-uh-oh, oooh.
I got a right to be wrong.
I got a right to be lonely when youre gone.
Whoa, Ill get out around, tear up my own home town.
Get mocked up, locked up, wind up in the lost and found,
Oh, I got a right to be wrong.
Well its so easy to give advice,
When you aint the one who got to pay the price.
Sit up there on your hill telling me I got to sink or swim.
Well it might thrill you, to make me want to kill ya,
I cant believe youre leavin me for him,
I got a right to be wrong.
Chorus:
Oh, loan me a dollar and watch me follow you around,
You got all the moves, youre puttin me through school.
Oh, I give you my best, but I guess Im still your fool,
Babe, I got you down in my song.
I got a right to be wrong.
Ive been con-flicted, e-victed, re-stricted,
Served with a letter sent to whom it may concern,
Still around lord, Im still in town,
A lesson hard learned nearly got me down,
Its a cryin shame, you dont even know my name,
A low down lonesome song,
I got a right to be wrong.

Time
I know that i, I cant believe
Just what the past has brought me
To the man I wanna be
I know that we have had some times
That we cant forget the struggle
Cause we have so far to go
I know weve changed but
Change can be so good
So lets not forget why
Its understood that
Chorus:
Time, look where we are and what weve been through
Time, sharing our dreams
Time, goes on and on everyday, baby
Time is what it is
Come what mayc(come what may)
I remember when, mom used to say
That things are getting better
And youll soon be on your way
Remember those days
When we would sing at the drop of a dime (oooh)
Way back when nothing mattered (mmm, mm, mm)
I know weve changed, but
Change can be so good
Oh so lets not forget why its understood that
Chorus:
Time, look where we are and what weve been through

And through it all you know we owe it all to you, you, you , you

Everything I Need
Weve been through so much
Weve stayed in close touch
Seems like weve always been together
Weve sung the same song
Unchanged for so long
Guess well be singing it forever
Chorus:
When love begins so easily
It feels like it was meant to be
Youre the special lover heaven chose me
And after all is said and done
Weve had ou fights, weve had our fun
And your the only one who really knows me
And everything I need I find in you
Time keeps on going
Love keeps on growing
And all the changes that we go through
Are so revealing, they leave me feeling
Im just so happy that I know you...
(chorus)
Everyone I ever knew
Is looking for a someone who
Can fit into the spaces in their dreams
Dont know where were heading to
But here is me and there is you
For so it seems...
Whatever happens
Well make it happen
Dont have to worry about tomorrow
We have each other
And well discover
Life has its happiness and sorrow...
But well continue come what may
Love grows stronger day by day
As we discover so much more about it
It feels so right it feels so good
It feels the way a true love should
I cant imagine living life without it
cause everything I need I find in you...
Love keeps on growing...

Been Here Once Before
Got your back up against the wall
Now you know that after all
When you make mistakes like that
Theres no more turning back
Now weve gone and weve lost our heads
Youre better off just playing dead
Why you wearing that black hat
Theres no point in turning back
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
Well all you know is you need to win
Should you go when your call comes in
Once you see all the blood that flows
I dont think youll be winning more
Now I thought that was all in the past
And that beast would come back last
Once again we are at war
Yes I know weve been here before
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before...thats for sure
I know, I know, I know
That weve been here once before
And I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure
I dont think youll be winning more
Weve been here once before
Weve been here thats for sure

End Of The Road

It was a late night show in georgia
We were on the ol highway
We know weve lost some friends
And family on the way
But you know we all feel better
And it makes it worth our time
To know our bus is rollin towards
That mason-dixon line
(chorus)
Oh we cant seem to find the end of the road
Roots never grow on the seeds that we sow
Weve still got our music and so many miles to go
You know we cant seem to find the end of the road
We know weve got a legacy thats hard to live up to
But theres still a lot of reasons
Why we play these songs for you
Its a family tradition and as long as were around
That freebird keeps on flyin and it never will come down
(repeat chorus)
Oh we cant seem to find the end of the road
Roots never grow on the seeds that we sow
We cant seem to find the end of the road
No matter how far we travel it always seems to slow
We still got our music and so many miles to go
You know we cant seem to find lord the end of the road

Time To Make You Mine
Only in my dreams
Ive seen the way its gonna be
Ive waited for this moment
The moment when we share ourselves
This moment cant be thought about
It has to be felt
Were closer to each other
Closer than weve ever been
Seeing things weve never seen before
Chorus:
Ive dreamed your fingers touch me a thousand times
Dreamed the warm skin of your body burning next to mine
Kissed your sugar lips, caressed your hips
Now were together baby now its time
Time to make you mine
Time to make you mine
The sweet anticipation of hands I know will touch me soon
Two fascinating shadows move in time
(chorus)
Spoken:
I know what its gonna be
Me and you, you and me
I thought that it would never be
I only knew it in my dreams
Even though youre here with me
I never thought Id feel such ecstasy
Were closer to each other
Closer than weve ever been
Seeing things weve never seen before

Livin On A Prayer

Tommy used to work on the docks

Hes down on his luck...its tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love - for love
She says weve got to hold on to what weve got
cause it doesnt make a difference
If we make it or not
Weve got each other and thats a lot
For love - well give it a shot

Whooah, were half way there
Livin on a prayer
Take my hand and well make it - I swear
Livin on a prayer
Tommys got his six string in hock
Now hes holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, its tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers baby its okay, someday
Weve got to hold on to what weve got
cause it doesnt make a difference
If we make it or not

Thought youre with your uptown friends
Dont need none of your junkie business
You gonna screw us up again
Get your blackjack off my table
Get your coat out of my rack
We dont need you round here, jerk-off

Got a station all picked out
Got a plan and now were ready
Gonna take that station out
