Lyric of the day

Well my Daddy left home when I was three,

and he did'nt leave much for Ma and me,

Just this ol' guitar and a empty bottle of booze.


Johnny Cash - A Boy Named Sue

Lyric of the day.

Heart breaker, soul shaker
I've been told about you

Steamroller, midnight stroller
What they've been saying must be true

Hair Of the Dog - Nazareth

Lyric of the day

If I see you tomorrow on some street in town
Pardon me if I don't say hello

I belong to another, it wouldn't look so good
To know someone I'm not suppose to know

Just Walk On By - Carl Smith

Lyric of the day

No, I ain't seen my baby since uh nigh' on a week.
Gotta get drunk, Man, so I can't even speak.
Gonna get high, Man, listen to me.

One drink ain't enough, Jack, you better make it three.
I'm gonna get drunk, I'm gonna make it real clear.
I want one bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.

One bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer - George Thorogood

Lyric of the day

I wanted to find the perfect song for Fathers Day, but while I was looking I decided to settle with a song I liked that has "Daddy" in the title. After all it is fathers day, so why can't I get to use the song I want? Anyway, here ya go, enjoy.

I remember back when you were nice and sweet
Things have changed, you'd rather fight than eat

I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow

I'm a-gonna do some riding on the midnight train
I'm taking everything except my ball and chain

I'm A Long Gone Daddy - Hank Williams Sr.

Lyric of the day / Johnny Cash Week

A little boy of three sittin' on the floor
Looks up and says, "Daddy, what is war?"

"son, that's when people fight and die"
The little boy of three says "Daddy, why?"

Lyric of the day / Johnny Cash Week

Well, if they freed me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine,

I bet I'd move it on
a little farther down the line,

Far from Folsom Prison,
That's where I want to stay,

And I'd let that lonesome whistle,
Blow my Blues away

Folsom Prison Blues - Johnny Cash

Liric of the day / Johnny Cash Week

With the twilight colors falling
And the evening laying shadows

Hidden memories come stealing from my mind
As I feel my own heart beating out

The simple joy of living
I wonder how I ever was that kind

Like A Soldier - Johnny Cash

Lyric of the day / Johnny Cash Week

Every night when I go to bed
I thank the Lord that my kids are fed

They live on beans eight days of nine
But I get 'em fat come Pickin' Time

Get 'em fat come come Pickin' Time.

Pickin' Time - Johnny Cash

Lyric of the day / Johnny Cash Week

Till Armageddon no shalam, no shalom
Then the father hen will call his chickens home

The wise man will bow down before the thrown
And at His feet they'll cast their golden crowns


When The Man Comes Around - Johnny Cash

Lyric of the day / Johnny Cash Week

Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry,
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River.
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die.

Big River - Johnny Cash

Lyric of the day

The Lord has promis’d good to me,
His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Amazing Grace - John New­ton

Lyric of the day

Everybody's got their problems--ain't no new news here
I'm the same old trouble you've been havin' for years

Don't confuse the problem with the issue girl
It's perfectly clear

Just a human desire to have you come near

Crumblin' Down - John Mellencamp

Lyric of the day

I’ve been washed down the sink of your conscience
In the theater of your love I lost my part

And now you say you’ve got me out of your conscience
I’ve been flushed from the bathroom of your heart

Flushed From The Bathroom Of Your Heart - Johnny Cash

Lyric of the day

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you

If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes

Paint It Black - The Rolling Stones

Lyric of the day

You can tell the whole world
how youre gonna make it

You can follow you heart
but what ya do when someone breaks it?

Who Will You Run To - Heart

Lyric of the day

There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me

And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left
Is now parting on the right

And the beards have all grown longer overnight.

Wont Get Fooled Again - The Who

Lyric of the day

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head

I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last nights bed

I dont know where Im going
Only God knows where Ive been

Im a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind

Blaze of Glory - Jon Bon Jovi

Lyric of the day

Why be sweet, why be careful, why be kind?
A man has only one thing on his mind
Why ask politely, why go lightly, why say please?
They only want to get you on their knees

Everything Goes To Hell - Tom Waits

(Thanks to Oscar for getting me hooked on Tom Waits)

Lyric of the day

I wish I had a dollar for every time I've heard it said
"They'll never get to me, cause I'm quicker than the rest"
The night is closing in and the hounds are at my heels
But, I'm always one step ahead

It Can't Happen to Me - Charlie Major
