I chased a rebel girl around the neighborhood- She said meet me by the railroad tracks if you could- I said I'll be there waitin' I wanna be with you- She said I'm gonna be there and I hope you'll be there to But don't send me no flowers- Baby if I die- I'll find my peace up in the sky- And bury me in an unmarked grave- In the land of the free- and the home of the brave- We'll smoke some cigarettes in the truck by the tracks- We'll hang out all day and we'll make them last- Then I'll ride into town and I'll buy you some beer- You can hang out and I'll meet you right back here- But don't send me no flowers- Baby if I die- I'll find my peace up in the sky- And bury me in an unmarked grave- In the land of the free- and the home of the brave- That girl was gone when I got back- So I drank that beer by the railroad tracks- Then I found her walkin' around the neighborhood- I told her I wanted to meet her again if she could- But don't send me no flowers- Baby if I die- I'll find my peace up in the sky- And bury me in an unmarked grave- In the land of the free- and the home of the brave....(C)Copyright 2005 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.

Time couldn't heal all the pain that you feel- Time couldn't change the way that I feel- The day you walked out, was the day my life changed- That day you walked out I heard myself say- There goes my everything- There goes my world- There goes my everything- There goes my girl- Now the years have gone by, since I last saw you- And time hasn't changed the way I feel for you- The day you walked out, was the day my life changed- That day you walked out, I heard myself say- There goes my everything- There goes my world- There goes my everything- There goes my girl- Now the years have gone by, and I still think of you- All those years gone by, and I'd still say to you- There goes my everything- There goes my world- There goes my everything- There goes my girl....(C)Copyright 2004 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.

I got some money in my pocket- And I got me a big old car- I'm goin' to the country- I'm gonna play my lucky guitar- I wear jeans and a tee shirt- Cause I don't own no suit- I got holes in my shoes- So I wear my cowboy boots- Cause I'm goin' to the top- And I'm gonna be a star- I'm goin' to the top- Gonna be a star- Now I'm goin' to the city- I'm gonna find me a rockin' bar- I'm gonna climb to the top- I'm gonna be a shoe it star- I'll drive around the city- To see my name dressed in lights- I'll meet a lot of people- And I'll party all night- Cause I'm goin' to the top- And I'm gonna be a star- I'm goin' to the top- Gonna be a star- Now I'm goin' to the country- I'm wanna play my old guitar- I got some money in my pocket- And I'm drivin' a brand new car- I wanna play for the people- And rock their town all night- Then I'll drive to the city- And play me another night- Cause I'm goin' to the top- And I'm gonna be a star- I'm goin' to the top- Gonna be a star....(C)Copyright 2005 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.

I wrote these words for the woman I love, so I sing this song for her- I wanna tell her that I love her so, and I'm moved by her every touch- I need to tell her she's the only woman, that I ever really loved- So when I'm lyin' here baby all alone, you're the one I'm thinking of- You're the only woman in this world that's been a lover and a friend- So when I tell you that I really love you, you know I mean it until the end- So if I leave here tomorrow- You can bet these words are true- But if I come back the next day- I'll still be in love with you- So when you hear this song I want you to know, that all the words are true- And if I did die tomorrow, these are the words I'd leave for you- I really loved you from the bottom of my heart, and I'm sorry if you're feelin' blue- So if I leave here tomorrow- You can bet these words are true- But if I come back the next day- I'll still be in love with you- I wrote these words for the woman I love, so I sing this song for her....(C)Copyright 2004

I heard Mr. Cash tell me about a ride down that muddy stream- How it started in St. Paul and it took him all the way to New Orleans- Well I have to tell you about his story and how it really captured me- It made me think of places that I've never been but thought I'd see- I've never been to Davenport and I've never been down to St. Louie- But I've spent a day in Memphis and I've always dreamed of Tennessee- Well he spoke of Baton Rouge and he spoke of the gulf in New Orleans- Now I've never been to either but I know one day I'll go down and see- Mississippi River I hear you calling me- From the banks in Minnesota all the way to New Orleans- Mississippi River I hear you calling me- From the banks around Memphis all the way to New Orleans- Well maybe I've never been no where and maybe I'll never get to see- But I'll always have Johnny's story about his ride on that river queen- He said "batter down by Baton Rouge" and on down to New Orleans- Well I may never get there but I'll always have my dreams- Mississippi River I hear you calling me- From the banks in Minnesota all the way to New Orleans- Mississippi River I hear you calling me- From the banks around Memphis all the way to New Orleans....(C)Copyright 2005 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.

Don't let your feelings get you down- You've got to hold your head up high- Don't let the pressures in your life- Don't let them get you down tonight- Cause you gave everything you had- You gave it all away for free- You gave everything you had- You gave everything for me- Don't let your feelings get you down- When things in life don't go your way- You've got to hold your head up high- And remember all you gave today- Cause you gave everything you had- You gave it all away for free- You gave everything you had- You gave it all for me- When you feel there's never enough time- To do all the things you want to do- If you feel you're carrying the weight of the world- Just remember I'll be there to carry you- Cause you gave everything you had- You gave it all away for free- You gave everything you had- You gave it all for me....(C)Copyright 2004 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.

There's an old woman in an old house- With the memories of her spouse- She's loved him for over sixty years- Through the happiness and all of the tears- They made a daughter and they made a son- Life was good back in fifty one- Just two young hearts that would beat as one- Underneath that summer sun- Sometimes I go and visit her at home- Where we can sit and be alone- She likes to tell her stories about him- I like to sit and take them all in- Sometimes I forget just where they begin- But I know she'll tell them all again- Just a good woman in love with her man- He's the best friend that she's ever had- Now he's been gone over thirty years- You can see it in her hidden tears- But you'll never ever see her cry- But you can see them in her eyes- She's loved him nearly all of her life- And her stories are what keeps him alive- Just two young hearts that would beat as one- Underneath that summer sun- She's an old woman in an old house- With the loving memories of her spouse....(C)Copyright 2005 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.

I was born to rock and roll- But deep inside I got me a hillbilly soul- I love the sound of rock and roll- But deep inside I got me a hillbilly soul- I love to hear ol' Waylon sing- Just a good ol' boy doin' his own thing- I'm sure Willie and Waylon know- All the ways to a hillbilly soul- I want to her ol' Cash sing- The one where he took the big river down- Then there's Kristofferson you see- And his song about me and Bobby McGee- These are the songs of great men- They're the songs of the highway men- I want them all to know- They gave me my hillbilly soul- I was born to rock and roll- But deep inside I got me a hillbilly soul- I love the sound of rock and roll- But deep inside I got me a hillbilly soul- I wanna hear the boys sing- Just good ol' boys doin' their own thing- Now I'm sure that they all know- All the ways to a hillbilly soul....(C)Copyright 2004 Lyrics written by Ron Hirsch and the Music written by Paramount Group Nashville TN.
