Many's the time I've been mistaken
And many times confused
Yes, and I've often felt forsaken
And certainly misused
Oh but I'm alright, I'm alright
Just weary to my bones
Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant
So far away from home
So far away from home

Don't know a soul who has not been battered
Don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
Or diven to its knees
Oh, but it's alright, it's alright
For we've lived so well so long
Still when I think of the road we're travelin' on
I wonder what's gone wrong
I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong

And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
Looking back down at me, smiled reassuredly
I dreamed I was flying
High up above my eyes could clearly see
The statue of liberty sailing away to sea

And I dreamed I was flying
We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
Come on the ship that sails the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hours
And sing an American tune
Oh but it's alright, it's alright
Can't be forever blessed
Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day
And I try to get some rest
That's all I'm trying, to get some rest

  • Getting over You
    "Why do I still write why do I still call
    Why do I still think there's hope for us at all
    These are the tings I hate but they're the things I do to get over you
    Sunsets make me cry old pictures make me grin..."
  • Dont Give Up
    "In this proud land we grew up strong we were wanted all along
    I was taught to fight taught to win I never thought I could fail
    No fight left or so it seems I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
    I've changed my face I've changed my name but no one wants you when you lose..."
  • Heartland
    "There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
    And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
    There's a big achin' hole in my chest now where my heart was
    And a hole in the sky where God used to be..."
  • Across The Borderline
    "There's a land where I've been told,
    Every street is paved with gold,
    And it's just across the borderline.
    When it's time to take your turn,..."
  • Graceland
    "The Mississippi Delta was shining like a National guitar
    I am following the river down the highway through the cradle of the Civil War
    I'm going to Graceland Graceland in Memphis Tennessee I'm going to Graceland
    Poorboys and pilgrims with families and we are going to Graceland..."
  • Farther Down the Line
    "Let's have a hand for that young cowboy and wish him better luck next time
    I hope we'll see him up in Fargo or somewhere farther down the line
    This time he sure drew a bad one one that nobody could ride
    By the way he pulled his hat on you know he'd be there for the fight..."
  • Valentine
    "Valentine won't you be my Valentine
    And introduce your heart to mine and be my Valentine
    Summertime we could run and play like summertime
    With storybooks and nursury rhymes so be my Valentine..."
  • If I Were the Man You Wanted
    "They all sat around in a circle laughing and all telling lies
    Then the tall one he bumped in a dollar se said boys I've got nothing to hide
    The King and the Queen stood together then the ace he would not be to blame
    And if the cards were all laid on the table then love could be more than a game..."
