Dyin' Breed 03:55

Mud, blood and muscle set a man apart Givin’ all he has to give workin’, dark to dark Waking up before the dawn heading down to the mine loading long tons of coal for the rock that would roll barely pays him for his time, it’s hard to find…anymore of his kind Where have all the cowboys gone, ridin’ for the brand Instead of makin’ a maverick your own be a loyal hired hand Or how bout a soldier who ain’t afraid to give it all to a nation in need, freedom ain’t free, so he heeded the call It’s hard to find…anymore of his kind, who like to- Use it up, wear it out Make do or do without That’s the motto of a Dyin’ Breed Come on somebody rise up and lead Cause it’s hard to find, anymore of his kind Out on the road all you know is the white lines passin’ by There rides a man with an ol’ guitar and a dream that’ll never die Well the road goes on forever he just takes it all in stride Like Hank told Coe said don’t you know son, it’s a long hard ride It’s hard find.. anymore of his kind who like to-

One Way Street 02:45

Do you know before you tell me You ain’t gonna do a damn thing you say Well your promising’ this, and your promising’ that But you ain’t gotta lie I know where your at Your on, your one way street Fillin’ up your backseat With promises you can’t keep Well tell me know baby what do I mean to you Though it’s hard to believe anything you say brings truth You got my hopes up high, hung them out to dry So tell me how’s the view from your lyin’ eyes On, your one way street Fillin’ up your backseat With promises you can’t keep Someday that one way will bring you back around To the lonely, lonely side of town You’ll get a taste of how I feel now On, your one way street While I watch you fill your backseat With promises you can’t keep Your fillin’ up your backseat With promises you can’t keep

Don't Look Away 03:51
lyrics

Well the push and pull has pulled us apart And you’ve wound up with a broken heart Find yourself searchin for a reason to stay Got one foot on the gas and the other on the brake… Had all you could take Ain’t gotta go far to track your tears When its all right there in the rear-view mirror Your looking for the eye in a hurricane But you can’t see it’s light through the pouring rain But don’t look away Surely hard times will come Walk on, don’t run Even when the ones you love are the ones that cause the hurt You could have easy but take easy for what its worth Love is hard to find harder to keep We settle on hate cause it’s within reach But if your lookin for a reason to stay And you could see through mistakes we’ve made Then don’t look away Surely hard times will come Walk on, don’t run Even when the ones you love are the ones that cause the hurt You could have easy but take easy for what its worth Yeh sometimes the ones you love are the ones that cause the hurt Well you could have easy but take easy for what its worth

More I'm Finding 03:16
lyrics

I wore out the button on my radio Seeking for that song to take me a little further down the road Seems there’s somethin’ I’m always searching for Whether a state of mind or a place in time, I’m chasing the sun but I’m runnin’ behind Oh Lord teach me to be still, to know your hand, to know your will I don’t wanna hear them say he left his life behind him Seems the less time I spend looking…the more I’m finding I wore out the clutch in that old pickup Burning up that road, man, I couldn’t get there fast enough I’d always say get there fast and then we’ll take it slow But when you only got one speed you never got what you need Always looking for more and missing times like these… So Lord teach me to be still, To know your hand, to know your will I don’t wanna hear them say he left his life behind him Seems the less time I spend looking…the more I’m finding Yeh I’m comin’ around Time lost is now time found I breathe in, I breathe out I can’t forget what it’s all about So Lord teach me to be still, to know your hand, to know your will I don’t wanna hear them say he left his life behind him Oh Lord teach me to be still, To know your hand, to know your will I don’t wanna hear them say he left his life behind him Seems the less time I spend looking…the more I’m finding The more I’m finding

Legacy 03:10

I got stopped by blue lights in Indiana sign said sixty, I was doin' seventy three and I know if you were here, you'd look me in the eyes and say there ain't no doubt where you get your speed.. yeh I guess I got a lot of you in me CHORUS Mouth of a sailor, heart of a poet wrote notes to Jesus, yeh you knew where you were goin and when you loved you loved with all you had now it aint to hard to see that dad I got a lot of you in me V2: Nana says its so hard to look at me sometimes she says I got my daddys face, yeh I got my daddys eyes mama still aint come around to the fact that your gone I know it takes some time to heal, I pray it don't take too long while me I'm lovin' livin' your legacy CHORUS Mouth of a sailor, heart of a poet wrote notes to Jesus, yeh you knew where you were goin and when ya loved ya loved with all you had now it aint to hard to see that dad I got a lot of you in me And I thank God, I got a lot of you in me...
