On the Road
we can hear the open road
it's calling out our names
telling us to follow
we'll never be the same
it can lead to riches
it can lead to fame
it can bring us sorrow
it can bring us pain
(chorus)
on the road...up on every stage
on the road...come and hear us play
on the road...new town every night
on the road...this music is our life
people think it's easy
doing what we do
traveling from town to town
if they only knew
man don't get us wrong
this life we wouldn't trade
cause when we play our music
we sure got it made
(chorus)
we have the blood of gypsies
running through our veins
just a bunch of restless souls
you can never tame
no matter how hard we try
we just can't settle down
this is the life we're gonna live
till they put us in the ground
(chorus)

Blame it on Me
I heard you had a lot to say
about what went wrong
when you walked away
I guess it's just that part of you
that has to be right
no matter what you do
girl you've got a lot to learn
about all my friends
when it's me you want to burn
what does it matter anyway
just like a memory starts to fade
you've forgotten who to blame
(chorus)
blame it on love
blame it on something higher
from up above
blame it on the way you did your hair
all the times I wasn't there
blame it on all the dreams we had
and all the times I made you sad
but if you blame it on the one
setting you free
blame it on me
it's been a year or two
and we've both moved on
just like were supposed to do
but in the back of my mind
I still hold tight
to what we've left behind
and if there's one thing you should know
I don't want to let you go
(chorus)

One Black Rose
he was north bound 95
on a cold december night
had a tanker full of fuel
behind him for the ride
he was a day ahead and
he almost home
with one long stemmed rose
to surprise his wife
getting home that night
kept him on the road
until he lost control
it's 12 am she thinks its him
so she won't pick up the phone
it's easier to pretend
she's lying there alone
something's up cause it won't stop
so she finally takes the call
"Sorry ma'am we did all we could"
the tears begin to fall
and she looses control
(chorus)
start up a fire feed it desire
add a lil guilt and watch it light
up the sky for all the world to see
damage done peace never comes
and now shes on the run
from one black rose and the
smell of gasoline
summers come summers go
and the cold wind starts to blow
stirring up the memories
she wished she didn't hold
she can't see her future
so she takes it day by day
and even though her lover's gone
the guilt won't go away
still she loses control
(chorus)

Broken Man

what to say and they
won't ever understand
and though I
I smile just the same
I'm still just a broken man
yeah I'm still just
a broken man
my whole life's turned
upside down oh and
nothing, nothing seems
the same the past is
gone and lost forever
no it won't pass this way
again and I wonder
when I'll feel okay

that I planned
I know that I'll find
my way but for no
I'm a broken man
yeah for now I'm
a broken man
yeah now
I'm a broken man
well I know

Lonely Nights
you and me we gotta
believe in something
stronger than in between
the closer we get the more
I think there's something
else that we're both longing
for can't you see the way
that I feel inside each time
that you look at me the closer
we get the more I believe
I'm looking out and the
suns going down and I
keep on calling and your
not around and I think
(chorus)
we just let another day go by
with these feelings all trapped inside
why don't we take em
for a ride can we meet
somewhere in the moon light
cause darling it just ain't right
to spend one more lonely night
maybe I haven't been there
for you each time life took you
for a ride I'm willing to prove to
you that the past is the past no matter
what you do
don't spend your time looking
over your shoulder when all
you have to do is let me come
over and say
(chorus)
It's getting late I'll leave
a message this time
fate must be listening cause
you picked up the line and I hear
(chorus)

Still Wonder Why
every time I see you
you walk the other way
don't believe you'd talk to
me anyway can't think of
one thing that you could
say I guess we'll save it for
another day what did I do to
end up here all I did was love
you and hold you near
I never did you wrong I never
made you cry so how could
you let us go I still wonder why
(chorus)
'cause girl you left me and I
still don't know why no
explanation not even goodbye
ooh baby I still wonder why
so I sit in this house so empty
and cold it was warm in here
not so long ago I take in
memories that are starting to get
old searching for answers in this
broken home
(chorus)
I still wonder why
I still wonder why
