lyrics

Every roadblock out of town has been taken down
I thought you'd be the first one out
I can't believe you're still around

Before anybody implicates you
Use every opportunity that awaits you
I know I'll hear your name
I'll be listening

I hope your jaw is broken, but you can go another round
I hope your ears are bleeding, but still you hear your favorite sound

I hope you're in the time that you feel is best for you
And no one ever gets to make your choices for you
I hope you do all that's meant for you

I hope each morning is an adventure waiting to begin
I hope you wake up and you're psyched, somewhere that you've never been

I hope the Good Lord's willing and the creek don't rise up
I hope the eavesdropper drops his peeping eyes
Somewhere far off when we can meet again
And I'll tell you then

It's alright

I hope you write with lightning, and that your message isn't missed
I hope you're dashing and gorgeous and impossible to resist

The Pan American, I hope it whips your hair
And I hope you're thrilled, 'cause at 5:08 you're there
Here it comes again
On the L&N
WSM

I hope you take the kids out and show them what it's all about
I hope you take the kids out and show them what it's all about
Otis Redding, Sam & Dave
