The final episode in the saga of the Blackadder family, who have forever been at the very center of British history and society.

Quotes:

Blackadder: And here is a front page of Macbeth, signed by William Shakespeare himself.::Lady Elizabeth, George, Darling: Who?::Melchett: Oh, come on, you know this... he's the fellow who invented the ball-point pen.

George: Well you certainly won the bet, Blackadder. Here's your 10,000 francs...::Blackadder: What do you mean, "francs?"::George: What do you mean "What do I mean, 'francs'?"::Darling: We've been using francs for over 200 years.::Melchett: Yes, ever since Wellington lost the battle of Waterloo.

Blackadder: [after discovering that Baldrick's undies caused the extinction of the dinosaurs] That's another one of life's great mysteries solved: the dinosaurs were in fact wiped out... by your pants.

Blackadder: Just one question... What makes you so great?::Robin Hood: 'Cos I'm ME, man.

Baldrick: You know how when you're drowning, and your life flashes in front of your eyes? Well, what I was thinking is that you could dunk your head in a bucket of water and if you held it down till just before you died, you could see how the levers were and get us home.::Blackadder: Excellent plan, Baldrick, with perhaps one slight modification... [Punches Baldrick and shoves his head in a bucket of water]::Baldrick: I'm 18, I've just left Nursery School. I'm 25, I'm back in Nursery School.

Blackadder: Last one in gets hacked to death by Rod Stewart's great-great-grandfather.

Blackadder: [punches Shakespeare] That is for every schoolboy and schoolgirl for the next 400 years! Have you any idea how much suffering you're going to cause? Hours spent at school desks trying to find ONE joke in "A Midsummer's Night Dream", wearing stupid tights in school plays and saying things like, "What ho, my Lord," and, "Oh, look, here comes Othello talking total crap as usual."::[kicks Shakespeare]::Blackadder: And THAT is for Ken Branagh's endless, four-hour version of Hamlet.::William Shakespeare: Who's Ken Branagh?::Blackadder: I'll tell him you said that, and I think he'll be rather hurt...

[to a Tyrannosaurus Rex]::Blackadder: Sod off.

Blackadder: You really are as thick as clotted cream, that's been left out by some clot, and now the clots are so clotted, you couldn't unclot them with an electric de-clotter, aren't you, Baldrick?

Blackadder: May I present to you, the greatest breakthrough in travel since Sir Rodney Tricycle thought to himself, "I'm bored of walking. I think I'll invent something with three wheels and a bell, and name it after myself": the time machine.

It was a rock and roll wedding,
Held down at a rock and roll shack,
Well the groom wore boots and leather,
Let me tell you that the bride she wore black,
Electric guitars cranked up real loud and good,
And the people next door said,
";There goes the neighborhood";
Black and white cars parked all the way around the block,
They had the music, it was crakin',
Man, I did not think it would stop,
Rockin' and rollin' like everybody knows they should,
And the people next door said,
";There goes the neighborhood";
Chorus:
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Well the preacher drove up in a Harley all dressed in chrome,
And the bride and groom said ";Welcome to our happy home";,
You know the vows were said and everybody kissed the bride,
And the people next door were lookin' for a place to hide
Then the party really started and it lasted throughout the night,
A lot of people got it right and the others just wanted to fight,
Got as hot as the flames across a hot rod hood,
And the people next door said,
";There goes the neighborhood";
Chorus:
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Rockin' and rollin' like everybody knows they should
Chorus:
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood,
Rockin' and rollin' like everybody knows they should

Ridin that night and the the moon is high
Gotta hell hound on my trail
Got to cross the Rio Grande
And never let me out of that jail
Feel the cool desert air... whippin' accross my face
Don't make a sound stay close to the ground
Got to leave without a trace
Like my daddy before me...
Said the son of the seventh son
I can't sit still when the night time comes
My spirit always on the run
I've done wrong everyone I loved
And I's livin' with that pain
The hell hounds on my trail
I watched one after another as they died
They took my heart and left me cold inside
Chorus:
Tonight I ride...One Last Ride
My past is close behind me...my pistol by my side
Gotta keep on ridin'...time's not on my side
I'm a pistol totin' gamblin' man
Time for One Last Ride.
Just a simple country boy without a lick of sense
30.6 Colt 45 rode a thousand of fence
When you ride with the devil, baby... you heed with the devil's call
Can't sing with the angels when the hell you're bound to fall.
Town folks watched as he locked himself inside
The new this torchered man was bound to die
He took the lonliness to his grave
The poor boy's soul could not be saved
The boy had finally taken his Last Ride.
Chorus:
Tonight I ride...One Last Ride
My past is close behind me...my pistol by my side
Gotta keep on ridin'...time's not on my side
I'm a whiskey drinkin' gamblin' man
Time for One Last Ride... So I keep on ride..One Last Ride
My past is close behind me...my pistol by my side
Gotta keep on ridin'...time's not on my side
I'm a pistol totin' gamblin' man
Time for One Last Ride.

Your slippn' out the back door, slidin' down the lane,
Whatcha doin' that for, baby, whatcha got to gain,
I can't be watchin' you, I can't be watchin' you,
I don't know what you're up to, but it must be no good,
Now I hear your runnin' with some local city hood,
I can't be watchin' you, I can't be watchin' you
Chorus:
'I ain't wasting all my time trying to keep you in line,
I can't be watchin' you
Well you leave the house at seven, you say you'll be right back,
Then I see you climbin' in some big black Cadillac,
I can't be watchin' you, oh,
Your friends came up and told me, just the other day,
They saw you where you know you got no business anyway,
I can't be watchin' you, I can't be watchin' you
Chorus:
I ain't waistin' all my time tryin' to keep you in line,
I can't be watchin' you
I've done all I can do,
I've said all I can say,
I've heard enough and seen enough,
I won't be watchin' you, I wont' be watchin' you, babe
I ain't waistin' no ore time tryin' to keep your ass in line,
I won't be watchin' you

Four decades ago an man left Mississippi
To fight the war in Vietnam...
Did two tours and got shot received the metal of honor
When he got home he wasn,t the same man.
But when you get home tonight and give thanks to your maker
For your loved ones and the food on your table
Say a prayer for the ones who lost their lives
And the men left in the field of battle.
A heroes welcome that needs to be told
To pass through the ages of the young and old
They fought for the truth and the will to survive
All American by Birth and born with Southern Pride.
Chorus:
So raise the blade in the Heart of the USA
Oh...oh..oh..We're all part of he USA
Gimme them Stars and Bars for heritage not hate
Oh...oh...oh...It's the Heart of the USA.
A heroes welcome that needs to be told
To pass through the ages of the young and old
They fought for the truth and the will to survive
All American by Birth and born with Southern Pride.
Chorus:
So raise the blade in the Heart of the USA
Oh...oh..oh..We're all part of he USA
Gimme them Stars and Bars for heritage not hate
Oh...oh...oh...Cause It's the Heart of the USA
So raise the blade in the Heart of the USA
Oh...oh..oh..We're all part of he USA
Gimme them Stars and Bars in Jacksonville Fla
Oh...oh...oh...Cause it's the Heart of the USA
Heart of the USA..Heart of the USA.

On the south side of Chicago on
A freezin' winter night
In a crowded little bar room
The men were rollin' dice
I's winnin' by the hundreds
Just rakin' it in
When I looked up from the table
Big John Lee was walkin' in.
Well he grabbed a chair beside me
Said ";son count me in";
He looked over at my winnin's
He wore an evil grin
I'd heard of hs reputation
A fairly dangerous man
Yea I heard ol' Big John Lee
Would pull is gun whenever he can.
Chorus:
I rolled against John Lee
He's a helluva man
He's hailed from Dallas, Texas
And he's known throughout the land.
Now the first hour went slowly
Yea tension buildin' up
John Lee was drinkin' Jack Black
From a Dixie cup
He was rollin' double too
Had me in a tight
Here comes John's dice again
Good God! It's snake eyes.
Chorus:
I rolled against John Lee
He's a helluva man
He's hailed from Dallas, Texas
And he's known throughout the land.
Oh, the night was growin' colder
The crowd was wearin' thin
John Lee put up his savings
Thinkin' he was gonna win
His hands were startin' to tremble
Money gettin' low
Ain't gonna let this Georgia farm boy
Walk outa here with his dough.
Chorus:
I rolled against John Lee
He's a helluva man
He's hailed from Dallas, Texas
And he's known throughout the land.

Mama had dreams.. but Daddy had plans
I lived on Mama's love but learned from Daddy's hands
They gave me all the freedom to be who I am
Took me from boy to man...
I cherish the day's when they were alive
Mama taught me respect and how to feel inside
Daddy was busy workin' just tryin' to make a dime
He said son you gotta live and learn to survive
Chorus:
I saw a falling star...fall down from the sky
Stars fall for all the loved ones go by
May the dreams of Life be with you
Passed through the hands of time
I never dreamed those hands would be mine.
I was lucky to have her love...
I didn't have much time
I felt the love of my Mama's heart
I just wanted to say goodbye...say goodbye
Chorus:
I saw a falling star...fall down from the sky
Stars fall for all the loved ones go by
May the dreams of Life be with you
Passed through the hands of time
I never dreamed those hands would be mine.

Walkin down the railroad tracks
singin an old Hank song
My whole world is on my back
And i gotta keep movin on
Look on out the window
See right thru the pane
It's hard to see the sunshine
When your standin in the rain
Baby's barefoot and pregnant
Hanging round my home
Sent ner mama lookin 'round town for me
But baby i was long gone....singin
Oh boy, better get on home
Oh boy, better get'em on home
45 in hand baby that'll be the end
When i shoot you dead and gone
Redneck riviera, Alabama line
i stepped right across to Panama City
Now I'm back on gator time
A sweet little sassy over Tallahassee, firin' up the
grill
Got a gator at the door, hear the Jaguars roar
Honey, back in Jacksonville.....singin'
Oh boy, better get on home
Oh boy, better get'em on home
45 in hand baby that'll be the end
Gonna i shoot you dead and gone
When your dead and gone I'll have the right to
sin
When your dead and gone I'll have the right
To move your sister in....right slam down the money
Oh boy, better get on home
Oh boy, better get'em on home
45 in hand baby that'll be the end
When i shoot you dead and gone
Walkin down the railroad tracks
Blue Skies over head
I am what I am and I don't give a damn
Give a damn about what she said
Baby's barefoot and pregnant
Hanging round my home
Sent ner mama lookin 'round town for me
But baby i was long gone....singin
Oh boy, better get on home
Oh boy, better get'em on home
45 in hand baby that'll be the end
When i shoot you dead and gone....singin',singin'
Oh boy, better get on home
Oh boy, better get'em on home
45 in hand baby that'll be the end
Gonna shoot you dead and shoot you dead
Shoot you dead and gone

You know they come around town the midnight rambler
The night shift gotta go
O'Malley turned and baby got burned
Went the way of the buffalo
To protect and serve their tryin' to keep the peace
The rattler'll tell ya that there ain't no mercy
On the corner of 42nd street
Blue Thunder...The keepers of the street
Blue Thunder...The only number that ya need
Up to no good in the neighborhood
A broken chain of command
O'Hara snapped and got his head bad
With cold beer and a percodan
Shotgun blast mini mac justice
When will the madness end
East side, West side all fired up
No rest for the policeman
The streets are insane
On a night full of danger
Honey don't you get caught
In a city by a stranger
It's a contact sport in the game of life
Hear a shot out your window tonight
You're ready for the hell to end, you're callin'
Blue Thunder...The keepers of the street
Blue Thunder...The only number that ya need
An officers killed he was on the run
A ten year old shot him just for fun
He had two kids and a beautiful wife
One split second blinded by the light
Take a chance on the midnight dance, talk about livin' hell
There's one or twenty losers trapped in the Tropicana Motel
The streets are insane
On a night full of danger
Honey don't you get caught
In a city by a stranger
It's a contact sport in the game of life
Hear a shot out your window tonight
You're ready for the hell to end, you're callin'
Blue Thunder...The keepers of the street
Blue Thunder...The only number that ya need
Blue Thunder...The keepers of the street...callin
Blue Thunder... The only number that ya need

I saw an Angel in Dixie
In Heaven the other night
No my way to New Orleans
Can't get her off my mind
There's many miles of highway
Between me and the county line
Thinkin' about my Angel of Dixie
Tell me where is she tonight...
Chorus:
She was gone out of sight...
But she's on my mind...
Well, I've searched the world over
She might be the one to share my life
Or honey just help me thru the night
We rolled into Texas
I was feelin' mighty good
When I saw this Angel
Lookin' like she surely could
Standin' there with long blond hair
And the blue sky in her eyes
I can't remember the last time I forgot somethin'
I forgot my own name that night
Chorus:
She was gone out of sight...
But she's on my mind...
Well, I've searched the world high and low
And Darlin' I've got to say
Still think about you every day
Man we had a big ole time
Everything was right
Search the crowd still missin'
Lord my angel of the night
I turned to go and there she was
I daid Darlin' you made my day
She smiled and brought me to my knees
Said thanks and walked away...
Chorus:
She was gone out of sight...
But she's on my mind...
Well, I've searched the world over
She might be the one to share my life
Or honey just help me thru the night...
Cause I have waited all my life
Yea I have waited all my life
For my Angel in Dixie

Well the world were livin in has gone completely insane
riding to the wall from all across the land
The wars been over twenty years but they still come who can
Read the names of the land of the free
Think of the brothers who went down for you and me.
I ran into an old friend I hadn't seen in 20 years
Talked about the good old days and cried some tears
You've never seen the things he's trying to forget
Saw hell for 18 months you ain't sen nothing yet
Chorus:
Rolling thunder writings on the wall
six feet under brothers heard the call
Rolling thunder writings on the wall
Death with honor dreams will never fall
This wall is for Americans who fought in Vietnam
Who fought and died for rich old men who never held a gun
Read the names of the boys who went down for me and you
Just keep it in your mind you're name could be there too. yet.

Well some people bitch, Lord, some people holler,
About the long days on the road.
Each man can do just what he wants,
But we've all got ot pull our load.
As for myself, I'm gonna take the highway,
It ain't as bad as they say.
Give me wine, women, whiskey, and rock 'n roll,
And let me sleep my days away.
Chorus:
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
I've been all throughout the South land.
Keep moving on down the line.
I ought to settle down some place,
But I just can't find the time.
As for myself, gonna take this highway,
It ain't as bad as they say.
Give me wine, whiskey, women, and rock 'n roll,
And let me sleep my days away.
Chorus:
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
Chorus:
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
Chorus:
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.
C'mon baby, let the good times roll.

Coming into town at the speed of light
This is Franklin County you got that right
The law is on my trail...babe I gotta git
Around Rafes turn foot down to the floor
400 horses gimme more...more...more
Gotta get back to Hazzard you lnow I can't quit
Chorus:
White Lightning... say it with a smile
I'll be half way home accross six counties
Before you can blink an eye
White Lightning...say it with a smile
I'll be bumper to bumper passin' on the right side
Feelin' my machine man what a ride...
A hundred miles to go...almost there
Blue lights in my rear view mirror
Hell is at my back...my babys runnin' strong
Road block ahead I had to gear down
Thru Kelsys woods and eased my way around
Elvis on the radio singing my favorite song
When the weekend gets here baby
They come from near and far
Reverned with a twenty dollar bill
Holds a bible and a mason jar
Chorus:
White Lightning... say it with a smile
I'll be half way home accross six counties
Before you can blink an eye
White Lightning...say it with a smile
I'll be bumper to bumper passin' on the right side
Feelin' my power man what a ride...White Lightning!!!
Mama & Aunt Queenie get to cookin'
Everything gets right...
We'll all be at church on Sunday
Right now it's Saturday night...
Chorus:
White Lightning... say it with a smile
I'll be half way home accross six counties
Before you can blink an eye
White Lightning...say it with a smile
I'll be bumper to bumper passin' on the right side
Feelin' my machine man what a ride...
White Lightning... say it with a smile
I'll be half way home accross six counties
Before you can blink an eye
White Lightning... say it with a smile
I'll be bumper to bumper passin' on the right side
Feelin' my tension man what a ride...
White Lightning...Yes

Seems like life's been good to me
It's been good to you too
Babe, it's not hard to see we've broken all the rules
But now the time has come
Just before I go
If there's somethin' on your mind
I really gotta know
fate is like a raging river
Just can't tie it town
Days go by so slowly girl
When you're not around
I've been gone 30 days
And I'll be home for two
Two more weeks of drivin' Lord
I'll be back home to you.
Chorus:
Tell me baby what your thinkin'
Tell me just before I go
Tell me baby what you're thinkin'
Tell me while I'm two days home.
When I'm home with you babe
You know I'd love to stay
But the wheels of destiny come
Take me away
You know I'll love you girl
Just before I go
But there's somethin' on your mind
I really gotta know.
Chorus:
Tell me baby what your thinkin'
Tell me just before I go
Tell me baby what you're thinkin'
Tell me while I'm two days home.

The Blue Ridge Mountains were turning green
The last time I saw her face
Rose colored glasses can't hide the pain
Neither can your satin and lace
Chorus:
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow...
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow.
I tried to keep you warm at night
Through the lonely winter snow
Sayin' your wrong is just not right
That's why I have to go...
Our love just got lost along the way
Can't fine our selves eye to eye.
Or face to face...
Chorus:
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow...
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow Our love got lost along the way.
I know you'd walk thru fire for me
You showed me in every way
Now it's time to set you free
The words got in my way...
Chorus:
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow...
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow...
I turned my Back on Yesterday
For a better tommorrow
Our love got lost along the way...
Lost along the way....

Where I am gonna be tommorrow
And where in the world have I been
How did it get that far when does the madness stop
Where is it taking me how did it begin
How did it begin
Chorus:
With the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes I see you standing there
With the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes with the look in your eyes
What are all of these changes
Can't you see take a look around
Just another episode
As this old world turns
Deep inside this heart of mine a wildfire burns
And it burns
Chorus:
With the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes I see you all alone
With the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes
At night I look to the sky
We'll reach forever you and I
Forever you and I
I look in your eyes you're all I see
I shut the world out surrounding me
If you're gonna have sunshine
Lord knows gotta stand the rain
But sometimes I get to feelin
It ain't worth all this pain
Chorus repeat

I was born one rainy morning in a little house across town
Daddy liked to roam leave Mama alone
She just couldn't tie him down
He liked his gamblin and whiskey
And mama just liked to cook and sew
It made me a man before my time
I felt many a cold wind blow
Worked real hard most all of my life
Bought a farmhouse out in the sticks
Set by the fire most every night
Working on my guitar licks
Before too long I was on my way
Playing from town to town
I guess I'm a little like Daddy was
Gotta keep on moving around
Chorus:
>This journey takes me far away from home
Sometimes it makes me feel so alone
So alone
Now I look back on yesterday
Wondering what I'd done
Did I help somebody along the way
Or did I just look out for number one
I know I can't change a thing
So don't put me down
Cause I didn't cling to your heart
Oh I feel like dying when we're apart
Chorus:
This journey takes me far away from home
With nothing left to hold on to
But a voice from the telephone
It's taken me away from every love I've ever known
Sometimes it makes me feel so alone
So alone

Out all night, till the break of dawn,
Once again you know you've done somebody wrong, yeah you did, babe,
And you know you're gonna get what's due,
One of these days it will all catch up to you
Chorus:
When it comes, its the big payback,
Don't you know its the big payback
Broken hearts, you know you've made quite a few, yeah you did, babe,
Runnin' around is all you want to do,
Livin' fast, you say you never gonna stop runnin',
One of these days, Mama, you'll get whats comin'
Chorus:
When it comes, its the big payback,
Don't you know its the big payback
Time will come for the big payback,
Don't you know, its the big payback,
I tell you time's gonna come for the big payback,
Don't you know its the big payback
Big payback,
Big back,
Big payback,
Big payback

[Instrumental]

It was the devil's reign that called him
As he was runnin' from the law
He had him in an awful strange hold
It was the worst kind of them all
Then he took him down below
And what a wonderous sight did he behold
And as the devil spit into the sun
Amazing things had begun.
He woke up and had him a feelin'
A feelin' he could do no wrong
His hands were faster, his eyes were sharp
His body never felt so strong
Nobody's gonna cross his path
No one could gun him down
Because the devil was in his eye
The devil had come to town
Chorus:
Sundance blazin' baby
Sundance blazin' baby
And now his days are numbered
He's lookin' up towards the sun
His eyes were weak, his hands were slow
And that meant sundance gun
Because the devil took him down below
A wonderous sight did he behold
And now the devil had come back to town
To take sundance soul.
Chorus:
Sundance blazin' baby
Sundance blazin' baby.

Brothers riding to the wall from all across the land
The wars been over twenty years but they still come who can
Read the names of the land of the free
Think of the brothers who went down for you and me.
I ran into an old friend I hadn't seen in 20 years
Talked about the good old days and cried some tears
You've never seen the things he's trying to forget
Saw hell for 18 months you ain't sen nothing yet
Chorus:
Rolling thunder writings on the wall
Six feet under brothers heard the call
Rolling thunder writings on the wall
Death with honor dreams will never fall
This wall is for Americans who fought in Vietnam
Who fought and died for rich old men who never held a gun
Read the names of the boys who went down for me and you
Just keep it in your mind you're name could be there too. yet.

Up from the burning depths midnight air is stale
With steaming breath, firey eyes, watch him burn in rage
Sailin' on for seas unknown, his quest is plainly clear
Trot across the barren land the angels run in fear.
Chorus:
Run, run for your life
Don't stop till the mourn
Run, run for your life
You bought the devil's scorn.
In the day or in the night, his mission's never through
He'll go to work on your mind then, he'll take your soul from you
Did you ever stop to think that happines is your doom
Until your death, then you're gonna find, you wake up in the devil's womb.
Chorus:
Run, run for your life
Don't stop till the mourn
Run, run for your life
You bought the devil's scorn.
Sailin' on for seas unknown, his quest is plainly clear
Trot across the barren land the angels run in fear
Chorus:
Run, run for your life
Don't stop till the mourn
Run, run for your life
You bought the devil's scorn.

Well, baby used to stay out all night long.
She made me cry, she done me wrong.
She hurt my eyes open, that's no lie.
Table's turning, now her turn to cry.
Chorus:
Because I used to love her but it's all over now.
Because I used to love her but it's all over now.
Well, she used to run around with ev'ry man in town.
Spent all my money playing a high class game.
She put me out, it was a pity how I cried.
The table's turned and now, her turn to cry.
Chorus:
Because I used to love her but it's all over now.
Because I used to love her but it's all over now.
Well, I used to wake up in the morning, get my breakfast in bed.
When I gotten worried, she could ease my aching head.
But now she's here and there with ev'ry man in town.
Instead of trying to take me for that same old clown.
Chorus:
Because I used to love her but it's all over now.
Because I used to love her but it's all over now.
Because I used to love her but its all over now.

Rolling down this highway, for years it seems
Trying to chase that Rock 'n Roll dream

On the edge of sundown, a man rode into town
His clothes were old and dirty like the guns he wore low down
And as he rode the people stared, tried to look on him
He's the man who'll take your life, take your life to boothill
Sleeps by day and rides by night
Like a mongrel always lookin' for a fight
Got cold steel a bowie knife, just his way of life
He took no one, no not a sound, stares at the edge of town
Only time that he'll be found, is on the edge of sundown
Take you for your dollars babe, take you for your gold
Make your life so miserable, he's gonna leave you mean and cold
And then he'll head on out, to another town
The only time when he'll be found, is on the edge of sundown
Next time he'll be sundown.
He's a killer and a robber and he'll make you grieve
Shoot you in the back or in your sleep
Got no name or identity
Livin' in the wind, he's free---

Old biker dream rollin' to the rally
In the wind with long legged Sally
Smell rice burnin' won't you step aside...Yea
True Americana is the only ride
Chorus:
I wanna live and ride free
Kickstart to Freedom don't tread on me
If I die...I die free...Kickstart to Freedom
Don't tread on me
Black leather and Chrome wheels
Loud and proud on hard cold steel
I wanna live and ride free...
Kickstart to Freedom don't tread on me
If I die...let me be...Kickstart to Freedom
Don't tread on me...
Raisin' hell all week down at Daytona
See in Sturgis in South Dakota...
Chorus:
I wanna live and ride free
Kickstart to Freedom don't tread on me
If I die...I die free...Kickstart to Freedom
Don't tread on me...
I wanna live and ride free
Kickstart to Freedom don't tread on me
If I die...let me be...Kickstart to Freedom
Don't tread on me

Thinkin' back, thinkin' way back when
There was only you and me
And time went by so easily
We learned from above and tried to call it love
All the trouble and the good and bad
We were all we ever had
Just remember, just remember... you're the only one
I had a dream one night
I made it to the limelight
Forgot where I came from
Lost sight of all my loved ones
I wasn't long until the fortune was gone
I thought it was the end
And I was hoping for a friend
Everything was gone in a blink of an eye
Without your love life ain't worth a dime... no
When you're sitting there all you've got is time
To remember, just remember... you're the only one
Now it's time that I must say to you
That you're always with me and I'll be true
It's been so long since this very day
That your love felt so strong
It could carry us away
Do you feel it, I remember, cause I can feel it
Do you remember... you're the only one... you're the only one

I heard a voicebox chatter in the neighborhood
They say Slim Jack Willie's gonna get you good
He's round the corner I gotta warn ya
Lock up your window tight
You're in for trouble straight on the double
Lickity-split babe out go the lights
If you keep on messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
Don't jump the fence boy you got no sense
Don't go messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
He's low - down dirty and he's awful mean
Don't get yourself caught somewhere in between
Watch where you're walkin', watch who you're talkin' too
You can run, you can hide but he's gonna get to you
You better watch your step
You keep a messin' gonna learn your lesson
If you keep on messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
Don't jump the fence boy you got no sense
Don't go messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
He can see right where you are, and he'll find you
Doesn't matter near or far
Said he's coming behind you... and whatcha gonna do
You keep a messin' gonna learn your lesson
If you keep messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
Don't jump the fence boy you got no sense
Don't go messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
You keep a messin' gonna learn your lesson
If you keep messin' with the Junkyard Dawg
Don't jump fence boy you got no sense
Don't go messin' with the Junkyard Dawg

I see it on TV watch it everyday
Men with no conscience don't care who they slay
Children killing children for insult or greed
Don't want what they have don't know what they need
Shot for a dollar or the color of your car
You try to find justice you won't get far
Too many families living on the street
Too many babies with nothing to eat
To clear the land they build a wall of fire
To get their way they use a gun for hire
Just trying to do the best I can
To live in this heartless land
So many people doing without
They have no power no political clout
Cutting down the forest, killing off the seas
Don't look to the future they just do what they please
Chorus repeat
We got to stand up find another way
To solve these problems it gets worse every day
Hand in hand as hard as it seems
We can save ourselves and our children's dreams
Chorus repeat
I'm trying to live we got to learn to forgive
I'm doing my best - don't you know - to live in this heartless land

Chorus:
Baby, eat your heart out
Listen honey - I don't want you no more
Baby, eat your heart out
Ain't bein' funny just want you out my door
I hear the talk all over town
Says to me you're foolin' around
Come on sugar don't ya lie to me
I don't like the things I see
You wanted all the money
You loved that Cadillac
You can't be for real, now honey
Now you wanna come back
Chorus:
Baby, eat your heart out
Listen honey - I don't want you no more
Baby, eat your heart out
I don't mean maybe, I just want you to know the score
Now I got you on your knees
Just beggin for mercy if you please
Get on out on out that door
I can't stand your pain no more
No more.........
You know you had your chance
To make it right with me
But it takes a special Lady
To ride this road with me
Chorus repeat
Baby, eat your heart out
Listen honey - I don't want you no more
Baby, eat your heart out
Don't mean maybe, just want you out my door
Baby, eat your heart out
Listen sugar baby I'm talkin to you
Baby, eat your heart out
Get on, get up, get on, get out of my life

I left my home down in Georgia and headed to the fisco bay
Didn't know what I was gonna do, but I knew I had somethin' to say
Because time yes and time again, I tried to speak my mind
I told ya once and I told ya twice, you never took my advice.
Chorus:
Oh, baby girl, honey you just, you just don't know
Think I'll pack my bags, I'm gonna get back on the road.

Now it's time I packed my bags and cut out on my way
Cause time and time again, I tried to speak my mind
I told ya once, I told ya twice, you never took my advice.
Chorus:
Oh, baby girl, honey you just, you just don't know
Think I'll pack my bags, I'm gonna get back on the road.

Well I'm going such a long way out of here
Well I'm going such a long way out of here
But if you see me coming
I know someday I'll dry your tear
Baby, I've been on the road too long
Baby, I've been on the road too long
But if you feel me coming
I know someday you'll hear my song.
Chorus:
Hear my song, someday you'll hear my song
Hear my song
Hear my song
Someday
Lord my baby's been doin' me wrong
Wake up in the mornin' and I'll be gone
Oh now honey it won't be long
I know someday you'll hear my song.
Listen, listen to my song
When you feel me comin'
I know someday you'll hear my song.
Chorus:
Hear my song, someday you'll hear my song

Well the pretty women, easy livin' were always on my mind,
Back home dreamin' , I was schemin' 'bout the things I knew I'd find,

A fire is burning low the moon is on the rise
Stuck in a devil's canyon surrounded by all sides
Got nowhere left to run time is drawing near
Well load up your guns its time to fight

Load up your guns get a man in your sights
This canyon's gonna feel the fire tonight
We've been together since the day we were born
And watched our daddy die - shot and killed
End of story too many pages torn

New York City, you're so big and tough
Well here we come, baby, struttin' our stuff
Well we look kinda freaky we're pretty damn bad
Cause Southern cookin' is all we've ever had
Oh, cook 'em up some greens, baby
I've seen the mountains up in Tennessee
Sweet little hill women satisfied me
We all know it's tough and it's an uphill battle
But we're running 'em hard baby, sitting in the saddle
Oh, come on baby
New York City you're so big and tough
My pistols are loaded, I feel rough
Well, we've heard of your punks and high heeled steppers

I pack my bags
Strappin' on a friend
Make it lucky
On this road that never ends
Swear I didn't do it
The jury said I did
Busted out of prison
Ain't goin' back again.
Chorus:
Cause I'm a man
Man on the run
Livin' fast, runnin' hard
Always under the gun
Yes I'm a man on the run.

Of this mine fine lead
If you want to love me
You better not wait
Cause if you blink your eyes, girl
It'll be too late.
Chorus:
Cause I'm a man
Man on the run

I want to tell you
What happened to me
A love-struck fool
Too blind to see
The old kiss and tell
Broke her cleaver disguise
I should have known better
By the look in her eyes.
Chorus:
Dead giveaway, ain't no use in fakin'
I thought it was love, I guess I was mistaken
The sign on the wall said no prisoners taken
It's a dead giveaway, I feel my heart is breaking.
Same old story
You've heard all along
Love is blind, still you try to hold on
Now she's gone, I'm lonely and blue
If you don't watch out
It'll happen to you.
Chorus:
Dead giveaway, ain't no use in fakin'
I thought it was love, I guess I was mistaken
The sign on the wall said no prisoners taken
It's a dead giveaway, I feel my heart is breaking.
Same old story
You've heard all along
Love is blind, still you try to hold on
A case of mistaken identity
I was blind back then
But now I can see.
Chorus:
Dead giveaway, ain't no use in fakin'
I thought it was love, I guess I was mistaken
The sign on the wall said no prisoners taken

I woke up this morning
And my back door was open
I knew that you left me behind
You had been by my side
We had nothing to hide
But I didn't think
You'd change your mind.
Darling you know
When my feelings are showing
It's hard to keep my love in control
Don't leave me lonely
You know I want you only
You'll always have my love to hold
But everybody knows what I need
I need love.
Chorus:
Don't leave me lonely tonight
Stay home and make it right
Don't leave me lonely tonight
Stay at home and hold me tight.
So if you've got your doubts
Or you're feelin' down and out
Just pick up your telephone
I'll always be there
To show you that I care
I'll see that you're never alone.
Stay by my side
We've got nothing to hide
We know this love of ours is real
We'll never be lonely
If you just love me only
You'll always know just how I feel
Everybody knows just what we need
We need love.
Chorus:
Don't leave me lonely tonight
Stay home and make it right
Don't leave me lonely tonight
Stay at home and hold me tight.
I woke up this morning
And my back door was open
I knew that you left me behind
You had been by my side
We had nothing to hide
But I didn't think
You'd change your mind.
Darling you know
When my feelings are showing
It's hard to keep my love in control
Don't leave me lonely
You know I want you only
You'll always have my love to hold
But everybody knows what we need
We need love.
Chorus:
Don't leave me lonely tonight
Stay home and make it right
Don't leave me lonely tonight

Making my way across dixie, eighteen sixty-five;
I walked all the and halfway to heaven, now believe I'm on the other side;
Day turns into nightime, nightime's by my side;
I look to he sky, I see shining light, the stars will be my guide;
The smell of gunsmoke in the air;
Lighting fills the sky;
I heard a rebel yell just as loud as hell;
You can hear it 'round the world tonight;
The silent reign of heroes;
is what brings me here today;
What I came to fight for, seems so far away
So far away;
Far away;
Tell me whats the cost of freedom;
Fighting for my life and family name;
The devil's laughing long and hard deep in hell tonight;
My feet are bleeding right through my shoes;
Ground's as cold as ice;
Sing no killer angels;
Can you hear my cry?
It seems like a sin when nobody wins and so many had to die;
Who is right, and tell me who is wrong;
Old boys come down from here to Virginia;
To sing the battle song;
The silent reign of heroes is what gives me strenght today;
Tell me whats the cost of freedom;
It's so far away, far away;
Fighting for our heritage yeah;
It's so far away, far away;
When I see my home and family;
Then I know I finally paid a debt.

well, i pulled out of canyon county
great cradle of the west
my mama and me and one lone dog
Tryin to do our best
strangers all around me
said none knew my name
i came to take back this land
i came to stake my claim, yes sir
the farm is all i've ever know
it bears my family name
but, damn, my brother got drunk one night
and lost it all in a poker game
shots rang through the silence
i heard the angels cry
you never arrive a winner a saint or a sinner
the boy said aces high
(chorus)
saddletramp you're back in action
lookin for the man that took my brother
i came to put him down
saddletramp you spend your whole life
runnin like the wind....going for the bounty but
riding for the thrill
mama died of a broken heart
the way myy brother threw his life away
but when they put him in the ground
it like to kill me just the same
half past the hour of midnight
i looked into the killers eyes
i pulled my 45 and bullets started flyin
the man he had to die
(chorus) 2x
everytime you take a life,
the devils watching you
he'll fill you with a pack of lies
and he'll steal your soul from you......i say

Crawlin through the swamps and you here me moan
stalkin after midnight I'm all alone
Three ways to Sunday that's how it be
Never take a walk alonecomin after me
Oh..Oh..Walk it like you talk it
Oh..Oh.. Watch it where you been stalkin around..no
Mama got the voodoo little bones
Daddy got a mojo noody knows
Can't get started till the night
The stars come out and moon is getting bright
Oh..Oh.. watch out what your sippin
Oh.. Oh.. Daddy knows you been messing around
Kept him working - work it hard boy
Chorus:
Mississippi moon dog shakin after midnight
Gonna sweat the devil out of you
Mississippi moon dog voodoo all around now
A rattlesnake a rabbits foot too
All night long your testifying
The truth that your signifying
You ain't slept in half a week
There's no more disciples to listen to you speak Oh..Oh.. what the hell you sayin?
Oh..Oh.. who you think you portraying now?
Chorus:
Mississippi moon dog sneaking out of Memphis
The rivers in view
Mississippi moon dog reaching through the darkness
Sun never shines through
Mississippi moon dog listen to em howling
Muddy waters singing out the blues
Mississippi moon dog chicken come a scratching at ya
The swamps pointing at you
Chorus:
Mississippi moon dog shakin all around now
Jackson's in view
Mississippi moon dog seven comes eleven now
Snake eyes won't do
Mississippi moon dog, Mississippi mon dog
Mississippi moon dog, Mississippi mon dog

Well.. I've been beatin' the bushes all week long
Can't seem to save a dollar
Apartments empty I'm all alone
Won't you listen to a grown man hollar
The boss man's dead on my case
Keep your mind on the job and stay busy
My mind's been on his secretary
Lord have mercy...make ya dizzy
Why won't you take me home...Baby
Chorus:
Why won't you take me home
Just tell me get back to fishin'
I ain't gonna go for no bait and switchin'
Why won't you take me home
Every man wants his secretary
The woman of his dreams
Monday through Friday nine to five...she's all over me
We get to work and she starts flirtin'
Loves to play her game
I saw her out on Saturday night
She didn't seem to know my name.
Tuesday I'm ready to scream
Wednesday I'm a little less mean
Thursday I'm ready for sin
Friday night let the games begin.
Chorus:
Why won't you take me home...
Why won't you take me home
Be stuck in the middle far too long
Hot diggity dog let's have some fun
Why won't you take me home...
Chorus:
Why won't you take me home...
Why won't you take me home
Just tell me get back to fishin'
I ain't gonna go for no bait and switchin'
Why won't you take me home...
Chorus:
Why won't you take me home...
Why won't you take me home
Be stuck in the middle far too long
Hot diggity dog let's have some fun
Why won't you take me home...
Why won't you take me home
Chorus:
Why won't you take me home...
Why won't you take me home
Just tell me get back to fishin'
I ain't gonna go for no bait and switchin'
Why won't you take me home...
