Back To The Well
listen video  "On The Road" by Lee Roy Parnell (Bob McDill)

1st Verse

There's a sad, young wife
Never had a life
Her mother said she'd married young
And her husband's a fool
Never listened to
All the things she's never done
So she packs up that ol' Ford Fairlane
She's had about all she can bear
A suitcase, a hope, and a hard rain
She's gonna find it all somewhere

Chorus

On the road
Where the night is black
On the road
Where you don't look back
There's a white line in the distance
Where it's goin' nobody knows
If it's anywhere, you'll find it
On the road

2nd Verse

There's a teenage kid
No matter what he did
Nobody ever understands
And he don't measure up
And he's had enough
Can't be his Daddy's little man
So he pulls out that hot rod Chevy
Puts in his favorite cassette
He ain't goin' to no college
The world is waitin' up ahead

(Repeat Chorus)

3rd Verse

Eddie and Jill got time to kill
The kids, they never come around
And a gold-plated watch was all he got
When the company shut his life down
So he takes down that old Airstream
They don't know where they're bound
Sixty five years and still searching
For somethin' that they never found

(Chorus Out)



listen  "A Little Bit Of You" by Lee Roy Parnell (Trey Bruce/Craig Wiseman)

1st Verse

High wires, thin ice
Since you came along, I don't even think twice
Long shots, no sweat
Now what's a little gamble when there's one sure bet

Chorus

When I'm fadin' at the finish
Doubted and diminished
Feelin' for a minute that I can't endure
No matter what the problem
You know how to solve 'em
Ain't nothin' that a little bit of you can't cure
There ain't nothin' that a little bit of you can't cure

2nd Verse

One touch, three words
Is all I need to lean against the wind in this world
And your faith, I trust
Is it any wonder that I never give up

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Tag

There ain't nothin'
There ain't nothin' that a little bit of you can't cure
There ain't nothin'
There ain't nothin' that a little bit of you can't cure



listen  "What Kind Of Fool (Do You Think I Am)" by Lee Roy Parnell (Al Carmichael/Gary Griffin)

1st Verse

(Here) (Don't) you come knockin' on my door
(When you said you don't need me anymore)
('Cause you know I don't need you anymore)
(Now) do you really think I'm crazy enough
To go throwin' my good heart after bad love

Chorus

What kind of fool do you think I am
I ain't fallin' for you all over again
I ain't playin' a game that I know I can't win
What kind of fool do you think I am
(Oh, what kind of fool do you think I am)

2nd Verse

I was lost in your love
And I got burned
You hurt me one time
I finally learned
So now that I know what your lovin' can do
Who do you think you're talkin' to

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Fallin' in love with you just brought me sorrow
You leave me smilin' tonight but cryin' tomorrow

(Repeat 1st Verse)

(Repeat Chorus Twice)
