Robert Earl Keen piosenki

Me and the boys we cinched up our saddles and rode to Sonora last night Gun's hanging proud, daring out loud for any one looking to fight Card cheats and rustlers would run for their holes when the boys from the old broken O Rode up and reined on the street...

To Canaan's land, I'm on my way Where the soul never dies My darkest night will turn to day Where the soul (never) never dies No sad farewells (dear friends there'll be no sad farewells) No tear dimmed eyes (there'll be no tear dimmed eyes) Where all is joy (...

I climbed the mountains and I swept the plains I crossed the border and I broke my chains I walked the back roads 'til my shoes wore through I'm still without you without you I lie awake at night and say your name I paint your picture in a starlit frame I...

I had a horse named Bad Luck She weren't good lookin' but she sure could buck Yahoo hey hey Yippee yi cy yey I put my mama on her She threw her in the air My mama said son "that's a mother buckin' mare" Yahoo hey hey Yippee yi cy yey Took her to the rod...

I was on the street tonight and I had no money too Watchin’ pretty people passing by I’ve heard somebody laughin’, that’s when I saw you Leaving the limo with some guy It’s funny how they work those men , Some keep hanging on While some of us spin out of c...

The evening sun was sinkin' down, a chill north wind a-blows The new plowed ground was coolin' fast, the river rolls and flows Beneath the two lane concrete river bridge between my place And town on that hot bed farm to market road they call 1291 I'm sayin' s...

It's been five years come this autumn, she remembers well the day The day the fever got him, and took him far away Far away from always knowing that the love they shared was true Far away the fiddler's bowing, the grass forever blue It was in the dead of wint...

Time for the singer Time for the singer-boy to make his way back home. A prodigal, I've been distressed, This lonely child can't make it on his own. I've been traveling states away; I've been playing in a bluegrass band. Now it's the coming home Of the...

Up this morning Before the sun Fixed me some coffee and a honey bun Jumped in my pickup gave her the gas I'm goin' out to catch a five pound bass Down by the lake side Just off the ramp All them people sleeping in their fishing camp Some out in the pup tents...

This old porch is a big ol' red and white Herford bull Standin' under a mesquite tree in Agua Dulce, Texas He keeps on playin' hide and seek with that hot august sun Sweatin' and a pantin' cause his work is never done Oh no, with those cows and a red top cane...

We left New York City, with nuthin' but a song, she'll be coming' 'round the mountain when she comes. We wound up in Woodstock, at an old time jamboree, came to see the man behind the drums. Levon digs the doghouse, playing in The Band, when he locks in to th...

I've been riding all day long through the wall of rain In the shadow of the mountains on the barren plains To my angel in the village where a lamplight glows If the dogs there don't betray me, no one will know In the city of the soldier, in the time of war Th...

I don't care what you say I never liked you anyway Wouldn't give you the time of day If I had the time to spend You're malicious and downright cruel Superstitious, so uncool Best wishes, you loudmouthed fool I hope I never see you again You're a regular jack...

Sherry was a waitress at the only joint in town She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around Down Main Street after midnight with a brand new pack of cigs A fresh one hangin' from her lips and a beer between her legs She'd ride down to the river and meet w...

He was walkin' through the alley way Where the drifters sleep and the wild dogs play The moon was black, the sky was grey He thought he was alone She was waiting at the Rose Hotel Across the street from the wishing well Turned the latch and broke a nail Check...

There were lean times, they were tough There were mean times they were rough And the good times didn't outweigh the bad I was sad you were bitter But you were no quitter When nothin' was all that we had We were drinkin' a lot We were thinkin' of tyin' the kno...

Down the hill Through the light Past the city jail I watch and walk Every night I wondered who to tell How can I tell my father? He's been gone all these years I couldn't tell my father I couldn't bear the tears I was lost In a rage Didn't ever mean to be No...

You say you're clearing out, the devil's in your eyes No time to walk, no time to talk, no time for long goodbyes. The ticket's in your hand, you've made that final call, The hard words flying by like punches in a barroom brawl We've made a mess of things, I...

One, two, ready, go She wasn't bad, she wasn't good She was just what she was She had a thing makes a man Do the things he does She had a way, a special way To speak without a word I swear to you, this very day That this is how it all occurred We was throwi...

Everyone in Nacogdoches knew Tom Ames would come to some bad end Well the sheriff had cought him stealin' chickens and such By the time that he was ten And one day his daddy took a ten dollar bill And he tucked it in his hand He said I can tell you're hea...
