But you didn’t have to cut me off, Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing. And I don’t even need your love, But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough. No you didn’t have to stoop so low, Have your friends collect your records and then change your number. I guess that I don’t need that though. Now you’re just somebody that I used to know. ---

Old friend Why you so shy? Ain’t like you to hold back Or hide from the light I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it.

I have a friend, He’s my dear old friend The kind of friend you can depend on The kind of friend who’ll say “Can you lend me a dollar or two or three or four In fact, could you lend me just a little bit more? And I borrowed your car I didn’t go far I left your car keys in the yard I was out of gas I was driving real fast How was I supposed to know whose yard it was…” ---

I’m going back to Mountain City, Where I can make another run, Load my trunk with Moonshine whiskey, I am a brave Bootlegger’s son. Yeah I sold that corn, To the Circuit Judge, On the Public Square, To Mayor Trent, But I met with trouble, On the tracks one night, With a drunken man, I commenced to fight. Yeah I fought five rounds, Then I put him away, With a wicked jab, From a razor blade, And the women screamed, As the bottles broke, On stoney ground, Where the blood did flow. ---
