"Travelin' Soldier"

Two days past eighteen
He was waitin' for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth, in a cafe there
He gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair

He's a little shy so she give him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talkin' to me, I'm feelin' a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one, to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you

I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin' home

So the letters came from an army camp
In California then Afghanistan
And he told her of his heart, it might be love
And all of the things that he was so scared of

He said when it's gettin' kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while

I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin' home

One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
A man said "Folks, would you bow your head
To a list of local soldiers dead"

Cryin' all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marchin' band
And one name read, and nobody really cared
But the pretty little girl, with a bow in her hair

I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter said, a soldier's comin'...

I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young, for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
"I Lost It All"

If I die I'll go to Heaven
Because I spent my time in Hell
Never claimed to know the answers
But I've faked it pretty well

And I've walked straight through the valley
Full of shadows and of death
Never claimed to know the answers
And I've learned a lot of lessons
But it hasn't killed me yet
But they haven't killed me yet

I lost it all, I tried to make it through my pain
I lost it all, and it'll never be the same
And right now the only thing that's left, is sadness and the shame
I lost it all, and it'll never be the same

Now somewhere in my darkness
Now I've heard so many stories
There shined a little light
Full of sadness and regret
A chance for me to be forgiven
And I've learned a lot of answers
But I couldn't get it right
To the things I didn't get

I lost it all, I tried to make it through my pain
I lost it all, and it'll never be the same
And right now the only thing that's left, is sadness and the shame
I lost it all, and it'll never be the same

I lost it all

So if I die I'll go the Heaven
Because I spent my time in Hell
Never claimed to know the answers
But I've faked it pretty well

I lost it all, I tried to make it through my pain
I lost it all, and it'll never be the same
And right now the only thing that's left, is sadness and the shame
I lost it all, and it'll never be the same

I lost it all
I lost it all
"Stuck In These Shoes"

I'm stuck in these shoes
And I ain't a hero, or role model material
Well I'm just a man, that's tryin' to get by
And I'm stuck in these shoes

And they're made for walkin'
Let my songs do the talkin'
I'm just not really sure
How much further they'll go

'Cause sometimes I still feel like I'm losin'
And sometimes I still feel all alone
And sometimes I still feel I won't make it through this
On my own
'Cause I'm stuck in these shoes
I got nothin' to lose
I've played the fool, I broke all of the rules, and I have to choose
'Cause I'm stuck in these shoes

And I ain't a savior
And I ain't here to save ya
'Cause I'm not very good
At savin' myself

'Cause sometimes I still feel like I'm losin'
And sometimes I still feel all alone
And sometimes I still feel I won't make it through this
On my own
'Cause I'm stuck in these shoes
I got nothin' to lose
'Cause I play the fool, I break all the rules, and I need to choose
'Cause I'm stuck in these shoes

"Story Of My Life"

I'll watch it all go down in flames
Knowin' there's no one to blame but me
Another vice to kill the pain
Knowin' that the pain will set me free

So I sit here starin' at the sky, and wonder why
The hands of God still hold me, and help me through this life
A sinner in so many ways, I've made it through so many days
I struggle, still lookin' for a sign

A little purpose
The story of my life

I'm haunted by the words you said
Prayin' that there's any hope for me
This holy war inside my head
Is probably not the safest place to be

So I sit here starin' at the sky, and wonder why
The hands of God still hold me, and help me through this life
A sinner in so many ways, I've made it through so many days
I struggle, still lookin' for a sign

A little purpose
The story of my life
The story of my life

So as the darkness turns to day
The light it shows the depth of my disguise
My safety was naivety
Created by deception and with lies

So I sit here starin' at the sky, and wonder why
The hands of God still hold me, and help me through this life
I'm a sinner in so many ways, I've made it through so many days
I struggle, still lookin' for a sign

A little purpose
The story of my life
The story of my life
The story of my life
"Lost And Lonely"

Well I've been shattered and broken, for most of my life
But I've done pretty good, with a job and a life
Got a family that loves me, and a good piece of land
That I bought with hard work, that I earned with these hands

These things that I do
I did them for you

So just tell me you love me, and tell me you'll stay
And you'll watch over this house, while I go away
And just promise to be here, when I get back home
So we can start where we left off, all those years ago

Before my demons... they took control
Lost and lonely, out here on the road

Cause I've been careless and selfish, got no self respect
I'm an albatross hanging around my own neck
I'm a hard one to handle, and I've played the fool
And I'm so hard to love, cause I break all the rules

These things that I do
Cause I couldn't have you

So just tell me you love me, and tell me you'll stay
And you'll watch over this house, while I go away
And just promise to be here, when I get back home
So we can start where we left off, all those years ago

Before my demons... they took control
Lost and lonely, out here on the road

So just tell me you love me, and tell me you'll stay
And you'll watch over this house, while I go away
And just promise to be here, when I get back home
So we can start where we left off, all those years ago

Before my demons... they took control
Lost and lonely, out here on the road

Lost and lonely, out here on the road


"Sunday Every Saturday Night"

I've seen drunk girls singin' karaoke
I've seen old timers bring their beer
And we all seem to have our sad stories to tell
That's how we all ended up here

Washin' away all our problems
Gettin' baptised in those neon lights
And the drunker I get, the more things I forget
And I just ain't got that kind of time

So that's why I like drinkin' whiskey
Because it fills up the cracks in my soul
And it helps me forget all the damage I've done
And all the time I've spent down in this hole

And for a moment I swear I hear Jesus
Sayin' "Son, it'll all be alright."
So I take one more shot of redemption, Lord
It's like Sunday every Saturday night

Now the gospel comes out of that jukebox
And an angel just walked through the door
And she pulled up a chair right beside me
She said, "You think misery's got room for one more?"

So that's why I like drinkin' whiskey
Because it fills up the cracks in my soul
And it helps me forget all the damage I've done
And all the time I've spent down in this hole

And for a moment I swear I hear Jesus
Sayin' "Son, it'll all be alright."
So I take one more shot of redemption, Lord
It's like Sunday every Saturday night

Now the bar stools are lined up like church pews
And the preacher just yelled out "Last call!"
And confession is held belly-up to the bar
Hell even the best angels fall

So that's why I like drinkin' whiskey
Because it fills up the cracks in my soul
And it helps me forget all the damage I've done
And all the time I've spent down in this hole

And for a moment I swear I hear Jesus
Saying "Son, it'll all be alright."
So I take one more shot of redemption, Lord
It's like Sunday every Saturday night

It's like Sunday every Saturday night
"Mama"

My mama always told me
"Son, you'd best go easy down that road"
And she said she was sorry
For all the times she couldn't save my soul

I shoulda listened to her words a little more
Before I packed up and I walked right out that door

Daddy always told me
"Son, you'd better love the best you can"
And "Don't look back and be sorry
These moments won't be comin' 'round again"

But I feel like I could conquer the whole world
When I look up and see those three little girls

But I get lost, I can't find my way
All my pieces glued together for the world to see
Mistakes I've made, consumed by some
Till there's nothing left of me when all is said and done

Now a preacher man once told me
"Son, I'm not so sure you can be saved"
He said, "Life is full of choices
And He sees all the bad ones that you've made"

And I said "Yeah, you're right, I'll probably go to Hell
But goddamn all the stories I can tell"

'Cause I'm so lost, I can't find my way
All my pieces glued together for the world to see
Mistakes I've made, consumed by some
Till there's nothing left of me when all is said and done

So my mama always told me
"Son, you'd best go easy down that road"
