To Beat The Devil(previously released)

It was winter time in Nashville down on Music Row

  • It was winter time in Nashville down on Music Row
  • And I was lookin＇ for a place to get myself out of the cold
  • To warm the frozen feelin＇ that was eatin＇ at my soul
  • And keep the chilly wind off me and my guitar
  • Well my thirsty wanted whiskey and my hungry needed beans
  • But it had been a month of payday since I heard that eagle scream
  • So with a stomach full of empty and a pocket full of dreams
  • I left my pride and stepped inside a bar
  • Actually I guess you＇d call it a tavern
  • Cigarette smoke to the ceiling sawdust on the floor friendly shadows
  • Well I saw that there was just an old man that was sittin＇ at the bar
  • And in the mirror I could see him checkin＇ me and my guitar
  • And he turned and he said come up here boy and show us what you are
  • I said I＇m dry he bought me a beer
  • Then he nodded at my guitar and he said it＇s a tough life ain＇t it
  • I just looked at him and he said you ain＇t making any money are you
  • I said you been readin＇ my mail
  • He just smiled and said let me see that guitar
  • I got somethin＇ you ought to hear then he laid it on my ear
  • If you waste your time a talkin＇ to the people
  • Who don＇t listen to the things that you are saying
  • Who do you thinks gonna hear
  • And if you should die explaining how the things that they complain about
  • Or the things they could be changing who do you thinks gonna care
  • There were other lonely singers and the world turned deaf and blind
  • Who were crucified for what they tried to show
  • And their voices have been scattered by the swirling winds of time
  • For the truth remains that no one wants to know
  • Well the old man was a stranger but I＇d have heard his song before
  • Back when failure had me locked out on the wrong side of the door
  • When no one stood behind me but my shadow on the floor
  • And lonesome was more than a state of mind
  • You see a devil haunts a hungry man
  • And if you don＇t wanna join him well you gotta beat him
  • I ain＇t sayin＇ I beat the devil but I drink his beer for nothin＇
  • And then I stole his song
  • And you still can hear me singin＇ to the people who don＇t listen
  • To the things that I am sayin＇ prayin＇ someone＇s gonna hear
  • And I guess I＇ll die explaining how the things that they complain about
  • Are things they could be changing hoping someone＇s gonna care
  • I was born a lonely singer and I＇m bound to die the same
  • But I＇ve gotta feed the hunger in my soul
  • And if I never have a nickel I won＇t ever die in shame
  • ＇Cause I don＇t believe that no one wants to know
