Dang it, Pinky, my songs don't have videos for them.

But if you don't mind, I'll put their lyrics down.

Both are by Steve Earle.

I FEEL ALL RIGHT

I was born my papa's son

A wanderin' eye and a smokin' gun

Now some of you would live through me

Lock me up and throw away the key

Or just find a place to hide away

Hope that I'll just go away (HA!)

I feel alright I feel alright tonight

I'll bring you precious contraband

And ancient tales from distant lands

Of conquerors and concubines and

Conjurers from darker times

Betrayal and conspiracy

Sacrilege and heresy

I got every thing you want or need

Your darkest fear, your fondest dream

I ask you questions, tell you lies

Criticize and sympathize

Be careful what you wish for friend

Because I've been to hell and now I'm back again

THE UNREPENTANT



In the middle of the night

In the middle of a lonely night

Stands alone in the pale moonlight

Screams out in defiance

He's got no one to turn to

You could talk ‘til you turn blue

He'd just turn his back on you

Ain't no compromising

‘Cause he's totally untamed

No fear of the unnamed

But he'll take the blame

‘Cause someone's gotta do it

Now he's out on the highway

He's got the key and the right of way

His tank is full and his toll's paid

Hellbound and determined

He run a dangerous payload

When he comes to the crossroads

Ah, man it's all times to explode

You'll just see the sky burnin'

Now he's standin' at hell's door

With a bad attitude and a forty-four

The devil said, "What's up man

Now what you come here for?"

He said, "Man, let's just get to it"

He said, "I always heard that you were the bad one

There's a few places I ain't been, a few things I ain't done

You got your pitchfork and I got my gun"

Someone's gotta do it

this song is what i have lead my life by ...when i'm right nothing or no one can change that .... i've never picked on any one but if someone picks on me ,i'm going no where in fact i wont back down .. i'll stand my ground

How about a 'sorry I screwed you' song for your return, Pinky? :wah:

I love that Gwen Stefani song :-4

hopefully off to see her in September. :guitarist

Screw You We're From Texas



I got on my cowboy boots, jeans

And Hawaiian shirt, mirrored sunglasses

And a mobile phone

I guess I look like some Port Aransas

Dope dealer that's out on bail

Just trying to get home

Well I ain't in jail and I got me a guitar

Got a little band that's hotter than a rocket

Sometimes we're sloppy

We're always loud, tonight we're just ornery

And locked in the pocket

So screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

We're from Texas baby, so screw you

Now I love the USA

And the other states

Ahh, they're OK

Texas is the place I wanna be

And I don't care if I ever go to Delaware anyway

Cause we got Stubbs, and Gruene Hall and Antone's, and John T's

Country Store

We've got Willie and Jacky Jack, Robert Earl, Pat, Cory, Charlie and me

And so many more.

So screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

We're from Texas, screw you

Sing it with me--

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

We're from Texas, screw you!

Now Texas has gotten a bad reputation,

Because of what happened in Dallas and Waco

And our corporations well they are corrupt

And the politicians are swindlers and loco

But when it comes to music my friend

I believe these words are as true as St. John the Revelator's

Our Mr. Vaughan was the best that there ever was

And no band was cooler than the 13th Floor Elevators.

So screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

We're from Texas, screw you!

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

We're from Texas Screw you

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas

We're from Texas Screw you

We're from Texas Screw you...

Nothing to see in this clip, but it's all about the lyrics anyway.
