I went down to Memphis to see what I could see, Standing by the river was a choir to the King Down in Memphis, got them southern blues. I hope y'all don't mind if we sit and pick on some of them southern blues. Give me Merle Haggard, give me Jerry Reed Y'all can even give me that BB King Down in Memphis, got them southern blues I hope y'all don't mind if we sit and pick on some of them southern blues. Give me Jerry Lee now and his cousin that preacher man I'll tell y'all sweet heaven lord we got a better plan Down in Memphis, got them southern blues. I hope y'all don't mind if we sit and pick on some of them southern blues. I went down to Memphis and that Mississippi mud Put my hands into the water, felt the music in my blood Down in Memphis, got them southern blues. I hope y'all don't mind if we sit and pick on some of them southern blues. I hope y'all don't mind if we sit and pick on some of them southern blues.

I don't ask for any promises I don't ask that you won't die When I see you sleeping peacefully That's when I cry All these years seem like yesterday All my tears have fallen dry When I wander in my memories You're by my side Sweet Inspiration Sweet Inspiration that you are to me Sweet Inspiration Sweet inspiration Inspiration When I wake up and you're next to me All my fears will fall away I'll sing your lullaby to see you smile And brighten your day Sweet Inspiration Sweet Inspiration that you are to me Sweet Inspiration Sweet inspiration Inspiration

She's Gone (free) 04:01
She's gone, I'm crying Another day, another piece of me is dying And the tears, flow naturally She's gone, I'm lonely All I want is another chance for her to hold me Loneliness is killing me It's one thing to lose your love to another lover It's another thing to lose her to something that you can't see It's one thing to lose your love to another lover's arms But those arms aren't the ones that you can't see. She's gone, I'm lonely All I want is another chance for her to hold me And my tears, flow naturally She's gone, I'm crying Another day, another piece of me is dying Loneliness is killing me The loneliness....

I ain't never lived in Austin, I never lived in Tennessee I never sang on any back-porch I never toured thru Mississippi Don't think I never wondered where it all began That my heart was going somewhere, where my feet just never ran I got whiskey in my blood and I've played some rock and roll Well my heart was never in it cuz I got country in my soul I never thought that I could get there, I never saw that light of day Well I had to wake up sometime, Hear the twang in what I play I've played in all the jazz clubs and been thrown in rock and roll But my heart was never it, cuz I got country in my soul I got whiskey in my blood and I've played some rock and roll I ain't never played in Nashville but I got country in my soul I got whiskey in my blood and I've played some rock and roll I ain't never played in Nashville but I got country in my soul I ain't never played in Nashville but I got country in my soul

I'm Sorry 04:04
I sit and I wonder about the times I felt scared About her leaving me for something that I said, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Sorry for the hurtful things I did and the loving things I left unsaid. I sit and I wonder about the times I felt alone, Her sitting next to me, talking on the phone, To somebody ... (not me) ... I'm sorry. Sorry for the hurtful things I did and the loving things I left unsaid. Yesterdays and tomorrows are standing in the way Of me reaching out and asking her to stay I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Sorry for the hurtful things I did and the loving things I left unsaid.

Lodi 03:37
Forty years ago, I set out on this road Seeking my fame and fortune, searching for a pot of gold Things got bad and things got worse I guess you know this tune Oh lord, stuck in Lodi again I came in on a Greyhound bus I'll be carried out when I go I was just passing thru Must be thirty years ago Ran out of time and money Looks like life's taking my friends Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again A man from a magazine said I was on my way Somehow I lost connection and ran out of songs to play Came into town on a one night stand Looks like my plans fell through Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again If only I had a dollar for every song I've song Every time I had to play while people sit there drunk You know I'd catch the next train back Back to where I came oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
