Sharpen my teeth on the edge of a hurricane
My daddy's a tornado, he's the one to blame
If I ever take off, close down the block
I'm a rock, I'm a flame
Shootin' down from outer space
I'm a leaf, I'm a tree
I hold down these hills, I'm gravity
16 tons of #9 coal
Wouldn't be enough fire to light this soul
I'm a super nova.... Gone out of control
I'm a rock, I'm a flame
Shootin' down from outer space
I'm a leaf, I'm a tree
I hold down these hills, I'm gravity
You better bet your money on me baby
Cause this ain't a has been....I'm no maybe
If I break loose.... Get ready for the aftershock
I'm a rock, I'm a flame
Shootin' down from outer space
I'm a leaf, I'm a tree
I hold down these hills, I'm gravity
I'm gravity
I'm gravity

Come close my friends, I want you to hear
I didn't realize till now how much I hold you dear
Is this our path we're traveling now
I apologize it took so long to see the road we found
Ooooo's
I this for real, am I seeing clear
Is this my life, It's been a hard few years
I've been blind, now I can see
The that lead me here has been Bettersweet
.....And I love the Sweet
Oooo's
Come close my friends, I want you to hear

Rocks and snow
Above Tree Line
Way up there you'll find
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
Tree Don't Grow
Sun Don't Shine
Way up there you'll find
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
The Hills don't care
The clouds don't lie
Lightning flashing in the sky
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
A Wild Wicked Wind blowing round
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
Why would I ever come down
There's no map and there's no sign
Way up there you'll find my mind
There's no map and there's no sign
Way up there you'll find my mind
There's no map and there's no sign
Way up there you'll find my mind
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
A Wild Wicked Wind blowing round
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
Why would I ever come down
Higher higher higher higher
Don't you don't you hide
Don't you don't you hide
Stand up tall
Let you freak flag fly
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
A Wild Wicked Wind blowing round
A Wild Wicked Wind on the mountain
Why would I ever come down

Midwest Girl
03:13

When I moved out West thought I'd find me a girl
Thought I'd find me someone from the other side of the world
I looked all around, still I couldn't see
Midwestern girl was all I would need
Midwestern Girl I can bring home
One I can hold
Midwest girl with a gypsy soul
That's my girl
I ain't traveled the world looking for silver or gold
But I found me a girl right here that will never grow old
Like a bee to the honey, sap to the tree
I'm gonna stick with my girl and I know she gonna stick with me
Don't go pick the first girl that you find
If you start ramblin round know it might change your life
I ain't tellin you to settle down, not quite yet
If you find a girl like mine take the first chance you get
Midwestern Girl you can bring home
One you can hold
Midwest girl with a gypsy soul
That's my girl

Half Full

Keep your glass half full
My load is heavy
There's always room to spare
Any day my luck
Could lean from lucky to unfair
I got a little
Thats all I've got to spare
I've bared my soul releasing
All these words into the air
So keep your glass half full
And let your love light show
We all need a beacon when the storm begins to blow
We all need a beacon when the storm begins to blow
Sit and tell me
Everything you know
I used to not listen
Made it hard for me to grow
Feelin wealthy
From all the friends that I've known
For the garden of my life
Is from the seeds that you have sown
So keep your glass half full
And let your love light show
We all need a beacon when the storm begins to blow
We all need a beacon when the storm begins to blow
Lesson 42 that I learned from my dad
Taking and no giving leaves you loneliness and sad
Know your limits
But push em to the sky
There's time for being timid now it's time for me to fly
There's time for being timid now it's time for me to fly
So keep your glass half full
And let your love light show
We all need a beacon when the storm begins to blow
We all need a beacon when the storm begins to blow
Keep your glass half full

Now and Again

There are moments in our lives
That won't happen twice
There are paths we will walk down
Nobody else has found
Every now and again
You will find the answer
Every now and again
You will find the answer
People will say to you
Mister you can buy from me
You buy it and its broken
No other works are spoken
Every now and again
You will find the answer
Every now and again
You will find the answer
There are moments in our lives
That won't happen twice
There are roads we will travel
Mainly rocks and gravel
Every now and again
You will find the answer
Every now and again
You will find the answer

Devil's Juice

Late eve Appalachian Trail
Compass frozen from the mountain air
Lost and scared, home long gone
No food or drink, waiting for death to come
A Shack appeared on the hill
Light shined on a copper still
Standin there a mountain man
With a drink in his hand
It was Moonshine---Devil's Juice
Moonshine---Turns most guys loose
Moonshine---Call it white lightnin
Moonshine--- I'm in a mood
Rusted tin roof and worn down walls
Down the stairs through the halls
At the very gates of hell
From the kitchen came an evil smell
His wife was stirrin up a brew
Son fillin bottles two by two
Daughter she was counting cash
Just finished up another batch
Of that Moonshine---Devil's Juice
Moonshine---Turns most guys loose
Moonshine---Call it white lightnin
Moonshine--- I'm in a mood
Ohhh the moonshine....
Took a sip then a drink
Room started spinning had to take a seat
Conversation with a clown
Am I hangin upside down
Give me three wise men Jack, Jon, Jimmie
Taste of suds, gin or whiskey Dew
will be fine
Keep me away from that
Moonshine---Devil's Juice
Moonshine---Turns most guys loose
Moonshine---Call it white lightnin
Moonshine--- I'm in a mood
Moonshine---Devil's Juice
Moonshine---Turns most guys loose
Moonshine---Call it white lightnin
Moonshine--- I'm in a mood
Ohhh that moonshine...

Momma's been working all day long
Daddy been working too
Momma's gotta come home get us something to eat
Something to chew
Hot Damn Put that shit on a fryin' pan
Hot Damn Put that shit on a fryin' pan
Cause I'm so hungry
Got a sister named Betsy Sue
Ohh she stands around 6 ft 2
She eats a bunch, eats too much
Eats so much she could eat you for lunch
Hot Damn Put that shit on a fryin' pan
Hot Damn Put that shit on a fryin' pan
Cause I'm so hungry
Dad works long hours, he works long days
When he comes home wants to get laid
I don't care about all that junk
All I know is that I want some lunch
Hot Damn Put that shit on a fryin' pan
Hot Damn Put that shit on a fryin' pan
Cause I'm so hungry
