GLORY BOUND (2015)
Released February 24, 2015

TRACK 1: THE DEVIL IS YOUR ONLY FRIEND

In the mornin when you wake up
As the day begins to break
Have you ever really wondered
Why your poor heart always aches
If it’s loving that you needed
Don’t you take it out on me
I got a funny little feeling, honey
You only miss me when I leave

You only call me when you’re lonely
Don’t try to play me at my own game then
Don’t treat me like you wanna own me
Lord knows the devil is your only friend
You only call me when you’re lonely
Don’t try to play me at my own game then
Don’t treat me like you wanna own me
Lord knows the devil is your only friend
The devil is your only friend

In the evening when your legs start shaking
And your neck begins to sweat
You think of me when your heart starts racing
And your lips are soaking wet
You ain’t nothing but a big-eyed bad time waiting to be had
And I ain’t never been a gambler
But my luck is all I had

TRACK 2: BLAME IT ON THE WHISKEY

Blame it on the whiskey
Blame it on a bad week
Blame it on the only thing you’ve ever seen

Run and tell your mother
Blame it on your brother
Blame it on the only thing you’ve ever heard

Tell it in a tale tale
Why you was a-raising up hell
Fallin like the hardest stone that ever fell
Blame it on a bad dream
No it didn’t mean a damn thing
Anything to keep yourself from coming clean

All you do is lie
All you do is try to deny
All you do is lie
Even when you know it just ain’t right
All you do is lie

Now you’re gettin older
You’re still looking over your shoulder
Everybody’s moving on
You’re growing colder
So blame it on the whiskey
Blame it on your company
Know it really doesn’t matter all that much to me

All you do is lie
All you do is try to deny
All you do is lie
Even when you know it just ain’t right
All you do is lie

TRACK 3: WHEN I DIE

When I die you can take my soul
No it won’t mean much until my bones grow cold
So bury me deep beneath the dirt so low
Remember me now before I go

It won’t be long till we’re dead and gone
Riding that train to the skies above
You find somebody who shows you love
Hold on tight, don’t you give it up
Cause all I wanna do with you, honey
Spend my time, waste all my money
Make sweet love to you, pretty baby
You’re the angel that’s gonna save me

If or when I die alone
May my exit be swift but yet gracefully slow
When I die and my body’s still
I’ll leave you all of my love in my will

TRACK 4: MARY ANNE

It ain’t so easy
To understand
Why you wanna leave me
Darlin’, Mary Anne

I tried so hard
To make it last
I tried to speak
But you talk so fast

I gave you a ring but you threw it away
I’d do anything so you’d stay
You took to the wind, turned your back and you ran
Where did you go, Mary Anne

Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?
Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?

I gathered my things
Key’s under the mat
And I left you that ring
And I never looked back

I guess I was scared
And I needed to be free
Want you to live your life
But without me

I bought you that house where you said you grew up
Whatever I did it was never enough
Hoping and waiting for one second chance
Where did you go, Mary Anne?

Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?
Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?

Your childhood home don’t mean nothing to me
Without you in my bed watching TV with me
This ring don’t belong anywhere but your hand
And pawn shops can’t bring back my sweet Mary Anne

Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?
Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?
Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?
Mary Anne, where’d you go, Mary Anne?

TRACK 5: COLD NIGHT

Nothin left
Crumpled bills
And old receipts
Broken down
Texas town
Trying to get you back to me

And it’s a cold night
And it’s a cold, it’s a cold, cold night
And it’s a cold night
And it’s a cold, it’s a cold night

Kickin dust
On my own
When I should be home
Gravel roads
Seem so cold
As I sing alone

And it’s a cold night
Come on baby now
And it’s a cold, it’s a cold, cold night
Lord I need you now
it’s a cold night,
Come on baby now
And it’s a cold, it’s a cold night

She lays there
Hair in mine
As the air’s so cold
Soft as a whisper
She says “give it to me slow”

And it’s a cold night
Come on baby now
And it’s a cold, it’s a cold, cold night
Lord I need you now
It’s a cold night,
Come on baby now
And it’s a cold, it’s a cold night

TRACK 6: STEPPIN'

Hey now, Put the right before the left
Hey now, We’ll march till we have left
These times are coming, coming
Well you called upon my soul
Stand up straight and do as your told
Shape up and grab a gun

Keep on steppin’, steppin
Keep on movin’ on, I said
Keep on steppin’, steppin
Keep calm and carry on

Hey now, you’ll fight to save our soul
Hey now, greed, power and control
These times are coming, coming
When you’re fighting out on our soil
A little seed to conserve the peace
While the rich man get their own

Keep on steppin’, steppin
Keep on movin’ on, I said
Keep on steppin’, steppin
Keep calm and carry on
I said keep on steppin’, steppin
Keep on movin’ on, I said
Keep on steppin’, steppin
Keep calm and carry on
Carry on

TRACK 7: GEORGIA MUD

Raised in Tennessee
Still got that Georgia mud stuck on me
Whiskey flows just like the Mississip’
Still got the taste of you, girl, stuck on my lips

Take me
Take me
Take me
Take me down

Take me down to the Georgia mud
It could be dirty, and it could be rough
Take me down to the Georgia mud, come on
Georgia mud

A burning fire, it hurts, burning inside of me
Just wish that girl could be from Tennessee

Take me
Take me
Take me
Take me down

Take me down to the Georgia mud
It could be dirty, and it could be rough
Take me down to the Georgia mud
You ain’t got it all but you got enough
Take me down to the Georgia mud
It could be dirty, it could be rough
Take me down to the Georgia mud, come on
Ha! Georgia mud

Oh, oh oh oh

Yeah-heah Georgia mud

TRACK 8: LET HER GO

Long hair, razor thin
You know the Lord won’t let her in
Oh no, no the Lord’s gotta let her go

Lustful eyes, pale skin
You know the Lord won’t let her in
Oh no, no, the Lord’s gotta let her go

Oh, yeah, she knows
And she cried

Oh, oh the Devil gotta let her go
Oh, oh, she gotta let her go

She cries alone from underneath the dark
The devil wanna take her, take her by the heart
And she knows the Lord’s gotta let her go

She cries alone with her book and her prayer
You know the Holy Ghost He won’t find her there
Oh no, no
The Lord’s gotta let her go

Oh, yeah she knows
And she cried

Oh, oh the Devil gotta let her go
Oh, oh the Devil gotta let her go
Oh, oh, she gotta let her go

Watch out baby cause you’re coming in fast
You know the Good Lord’ll save you, you can make it last
One in Three yeah you know me
You know you big battered witch you gotta take it and leave
You know you big battered witch you gotta take it
Take it
And she cried

Oh, oh the Devil gotta let her go
Oh, oh the Devil gotta let her go
Oh let her go, let her go, let her go
She gotta let her go

TRACK 9: GLORY BOUND

Don’t you let the worst get the best of you
I know that it hurts but I swear we’ll make it through
Don’t waste your time dwelling on the things you shouldn’t mind
I know it don’t seem right but just ease that troubled mind, yeah

Don’t you go insane from the darkness or the pain
Sometimes we got to learn to suffer to sustain
Now I’m not seeing that it’s easy, but you gotta believe me when I say
Well there’s a beauty in the struggle when this darkness fades away

So lay your burdens down
Watch the world keep turning round
So lay your burdens down
And we’ll be glory bound
Glory bound

Don’t you give up love as long as there are stars shining above
I know these times are tough, these nights are rough and you’ve had enough
But don’t worry, little angel, I ain’t no stranger to the fight
Cause I have made it through the other side of light

So lay your burdens down
Watch the world keep turning round
So lay your burdens down
And we’ll be glory bound
Glory bound

TRACK 10: GYPSY OF LOVE

It’s been such a long time
Gypsy woman running through my mind
It’s been such a long time
Gave me a kiss and then left me behind

Ooh, oh she leaving
Yeah she leaving me
Oh she leaving
She’s a gypsy

Yeah, yeah
A gypsy of love
Yeah, yeah
Gypsy of love
Yeah, yeah
A gypsy of love
Yeah, yeah
She’s a gypsy of love

It’s been such a long a time
She took my money and she drank my wine
It’s been such a long time
Rambling woman took me for a ride

Ooh, oh she leaving
Yeah she leaving me
Ooh she leaving
She’s a gypsy

Yeah, yeah
A gypsy of love
Yeah, yeah
Gypsy of love
Yeah, yeah
A gypsy of love
Yeah, yeah
She’s a gypsy of love
