LONELY TRACKS LYRICS

1. SOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE : Drivin down tonight on the interstate ,

hard to keep my mind on the road. Ah but ever since you went away. Im not sure which

way to go.The miles between us seem to slip away,just like an old lost friend. And I

wonder if by chance someday, you'll be back this way again. Well im not sure what your

lookin for,and I'm not sure what you'll find. And I'm not sure what this life has in store for

this heart of mine. But I cant seem to shake this memory, no mater how fast I'll drive.

But maybe I'll find a way. Maybe some other day, Somewhere down the line.

The sun is setting on another day, as I drive into the night into the night. And your

memory leads my mind astray,to where you are tonight.The miles between us seem

to slip away. Just like an old lost friend. And I wonder if by chance someday,you'll be

back this way again.

 

2 . ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT: I cant keep my mind on what I need to do. I just cant concentrate or

seem to think anything through. I dont know what I'm gonna do. & the only thing I'm sure of is all I can

think about is you. My friends all wonder wahts happened to me.They say I'm not the same guy that I

used to be.They dont know what I'm gonna do.& the only thing thier sure of is all I can think about is

you. All day long,I'm walking around in a haze.And when your gone,the sunlight fades to grey.

Out on the highway and I've missed my turn.Forgot to fill my tank I ran out of gas I guess I'll

never learn. I dont know what I'm gonna do.& the only thing I'm sure of is all I can think about

is you.

 

3. LEADIN ME BACK TO YOU: Right here in this moment is where I wanna be.

Lying here alone with you right beside of me. Under the light of all the heavens stars.

With nothing to worry about at all. Whenever I hear your voice.Whenever I see your smile.

It seems as if the world stops turning for a while.And no matter where this road may lead

me, or what I'll have to do, you can rest assured, my heart remains with you.

And this dirt road,is leadin me back to you.When this life gets too crazy and turned

upside down,your smile has a way of bringing me around. & all that I need I get from you

and more.So much much more than I ever did before.

 

4. HERE IN KENTUCKY: Well we live out in the county,far from the factory lights.

On a hilltop in Kentucky where the stars are shining bright.& I've been a lot of places.

Drove a lot of miles. Seen most of this great nation.And all along the while.

I know in the back of my mind, the most beautiful place I'll ever find.

Somewhere in the back of my mind,I'm here in Kentucky.

I've been up through Indiana,to see what I could see. Went walking through the

mountains and the valleys of Tennesee. I've met a lot of people, all along the way.

It's a real nice place to visit.But I knew I couldnt stay.

 

5. LONELY TRACKS: I Can still hear that old train running,on down the tracks.

Dissapearing into the sunset.Never coming back.And I can hear the sound of your voice,

like it was yesterday. And like a frieght train running through my mind your memory

wont fade away.On and on, these tracks they never change.On and on I find.

And every day we stay the same.Traveling on down the line.

That lonesome whistle just keeps on blowing,each and every day.

Those steel rails just keep on going.Leading so far away.Maybe one day I'll hitch a ride.

Never looking back. But for now I'll try to clear my mind as I walk these lonely tracks.

 

6. BEER THIRTY(CENTRAL BREWSKI TIME) : I work like a dog all day long and my boss

is a pain in the neck.When friday rolls around my old truck breaks down and I can't believe

this pitifull check.It seems were selling our life off minute by minute.The hours turn into days.

no matter how hard I try I cant see the sense in it . Theres got to be some other way.

Just 15 minutes and I'm out of the door.I aint looking back.Put the pedal tothe floor.

Gonna meet all my friends and have a hell of a time.Cause its beer thirty,central brewski time.

If I make it one more day I'll have one less bill to pay.And buy me some time for awhile.

While my landlord gets fat and I'm busted flat it's hard to even muster a smile.

 

7. WHENEVER YOU NEED ME TOO : Ever since I met you.I cant forget your smile.

Wherever this road may lead you.Think of me awhile.But if you ever need a friend.

Someone on whom you can depend.Whenever your water seems too troubled,

Whenever your wishing well runs dry. I'll be your shelter from stormy weather,

Whenever the world turns cold outside, And if you need a little sunshine,

on a dark and cloudy day,All tah you have to do is call me , and I'll be on my way.

I'll be there for you,Whenever you need me too.

I hope happiness surrounds you,in everything you do.And I wish you the very best,

that life has to offer you. But if you eber need a friend. One on whom you can

depend.

 

8. LET IT SHINE : It's another beautiful morning,adn the sun is shining down.

And theres not a cloud in the sky.And theres no place I'd rather be than here with

you right now.Looking right into your eyes. So let it shine.Let it shine.When you open

up your heart and let it shine. Let it shine,let it shine,wont you open up your heart

and let it shine.Traveling down this windy road,with you right by my side.

Seems like all I'll ever need . Nothing else seems to matter,except right here

right now.Our troubles have blown away just like the breeze.(chorus)

Maybe I'm the luckiest guy thats ever been alive.There's nothing we cant do,

you and I.

 

9. LONG DIRT ROAD : Another lonely night,in a sleepy town. The streets roll up

at 9 oclock and the shades pull down.And everybody here seems to be

content, to pass the days like ocean waves till thier time is spent.

I've gotta get back there somehow.Back to the place I call my home town.

Down this long dirt road.On my way back home. Down this long dirt road.

On my way back home. At 5 oclock ,, the whistle blows. And at 8 A.M. they'll

be back again. Till then the times your own.And everybody there, seem to be at

ease,to sing those songs all night long in the summer breeze.

 

10. OVER YOU: When I woke this morning,I made myself a list.

Of everything I wanted to do.And all that I'd missed.And there must have been

a thousand,things I'd written down. But when I ran out of paper,I just laid that

ink pen down.And my mind raced back to how it used to be.And all my thoughts

just turned to you and me.Theres so many things that I cant wait to do.

Just as soon as I get over you. Theres so many things that I cant wait to do.

Just as soon as I get over you. Later in the evening,the sun is setting down.

This old house is so quiet I can hardly bare the sound.But I'll start again

tomorrow,and make another list.Maybe think of what I'd forgotten,

or something that I'd missed.
