Ain't No Living
Fire halls, pool halls, dance halls and dives
You'll know where to find me while I'm still alive
Strumming along trying to survive
I'll trade you a song for beer
I sang that one but this don't feel the same
I would have slowed dowm "Driving My Life Away"
I gotta get going before I go insane
Now let's get the hell out of here
It's four tires on the road
Four chords and a tale to be told
Highways to barstools, ladies and lies
It ain't no living it's my life
Trying to hold me is like catching the rain
You might get a piece but most slips away
I'm out here chasing an old country song
Lost in a dream drunk as George Jones
It's four tires on the road
Four chords and a tale to be told
Highways to barstools, ladies and lies
It ain't no living it's my life
It's four tires on the road
Four chords and a tale to be told
Highways to barstools, ladies and lies
It ain't no living it's my life
It ain't no living it's my life

Tiny Anchors
Little things can fill up a room and make it feel so much smaller
Little words spring from your lips without fail
Pictures you held to your chest when you held our old memories fonder
Are glimpses into a lifetime for sale
Tiny anchors are holding her down
Tied to her ankles and sank in the ground
Pint-sized heartaches roll in by the score
Tiny anchors I adore
At times I see what appears like a sign you might still remember
Those moments they hang in my head then for days
The sign in the yard's looking worn it's been there since late last December
Let's think this through, honey, why don't we stay
Tiny anchors are holding her down
Tied to her ankles and sank in the ground
Pint-sized heartaches roll in by the score
Tiny anchors I adore
Now darling hang on with me
Darling hang on with me
Hang on with me
Tiny anchors are holding her down
Tied to her ankles and sank in the ground
Those pint-sized heartaches roll in by the score
Tiny anchors I adore
Tiny anchors I adore
Tiny anchors I adore

With Love from Brushy Mountain
Don't pick up that guitar, boy, it'll only sterr you wrong
And lead you down darker roads chasing some old song
Find yourself a woman and try to settle down
Pray that she don't break your heart and take to running 'round
But if she does you better let her go
Take it from someone who ought to know
There ain't no light from Heaven can penetrate these walls
Ghosts of men who came before echo down her halls
The birds outside are singing a song ain't meant for me
With love from Brushy Mountain
Hell in Tennessee
Now the Devil's in that bottle,son, just like your momma said
He's come to warm your lust-filled heart and easy your worried head
And if you need a friend, boy, he's easy to be found
But when your back's against that wall he's bound to let you down
You ought to know a good friend's hard to find
Especially when a woman is on the line
There ain't no light from Heaven can penetrate these walls
Ghosts of men who came before echo down her halls
The birds outside are singing a song ain't meant for me
With love from Brushy Mountain
Hell in Tennessee
I loved her from the day we met like noone had ever loved
And I would have fought and died for him if push had come to shove
I found them in each other's arms the last night of their lives
I bought a ticket to this mountain and this mountain's where I'll die
Your momma had an empty heart, son, more than I could fill
It's love that put here in the ground
It's love that put me here
I know I tore your whole wide world apart
I hope that you might take these words to heart
There ain't no light from Heaven can penetrate these walls
Ghosts of men who came before echo down her halls
The birds outside are singing a song ain't meant for me
With love from Brushy Mountain
Hell in Tennessee
Now, the birds outside are singing a song ain't meant for me
With love from Brushy Mountain
Hell in Tennessee
