Black Gold
02:35

Bedecked and bedazzled out on the road
Eighteen hours away from my home
The drone of the tires the only song i own
The smell of the tarmac fuels up these bones
Show me the way to black gold
We're headed for higher ground
Show me where the faith goes
That's where i'll be found
Red dirt burns my eyes, and a thousand lakes unfold
An endless ribbon of wires carry twisted tales i'm told
Lightning strikes reveal the road ahead
A message from the heavens that beckons to be read
Show me the way to black gold
We're headed for higher ground
Show me where the faith goes
That's where i'll be found
This is the way to black gold
We're headed for higher ground
This is where the faith goes
It's where i'll be found

Quit my job
And left without a trace
God knows
I felt so out of place
Drove all night
A fire in my mind
Glowing bright
On this cold december night
Something in the air makes me question if I'm right
Can anybody help me, help me through the night?
Thinkin’ 'bout
The way I led my life
Lingering doubts
Send shivers down my spine
Something in the air makes me question if I'm right
Can anybody help me, help me through the night?
Take your words and let me run away
There's a motel up the road, that's where I'm gonna stay
A guitar and a shot of gin
Got me in the state I'm in
And I need help to make it through the night
Something in the air makes me question if I'm right
Can anybody help me, help me through the night?

The Fool Will Survive
02:45
|

That's just the way it goes they say
Down at the corner bar by me
Yeah, they'll take it away
And eventually you'll see
Nothing ever changes here
The regulars sit and watch t.v.
And they'll drink their beer
And be thankful they're not me
Better run, better hide
'Cuz you don't know who's on your side
But you know that the fool will survive
Rampant mediocrity
Spreads out and multiplies again
Like a bad disease
Self doubt develops in your head
So you run, and you hide
But you still can't seem to get by
And the man in the mirror makes you wanna cry
So you look around for an answer
But you don't know what you're after
So you step aside and take your place in line
Better run, better hide
'Cuz you don't know who's on your side
But you know that the fool will survive

The light at the end of the tunnel's gettin' brighter
And the sound of my guitar's gettin' lonely
The road that i've been travellin's been a long one
And the thought of turning back brings me down
We're close enough to rock and roll for me
Close enough to rock and roll for me
Started out a small town boy with nothing
When I heard the music, it inspired me
It's close enough to rock and roll for me
Close enough to rock and roll for me
Ten years, look how far we've come
I am here, sanctify this one
The light at the end of the tunnel's gettin' brighter
And the sound of my guitar's gettin' lonely
Let's rock and roll
Let's rock and roll
Let's rock and roll
Let's rock and roll
