1.Omaha
Lyricist：Hillman Hall, Billy Joe Shaver
Omaha, oh you've been weighin' heavy on my mind
Guess, I never really left it all
I'm turnin' all those roads, I walked around the other way
Coming back to you Omaha
Omaha, Nebraska was that good enough for me
I always thought I was the roamin' kind
With the pockets full of dreams in my worn shirt on my back
I left there looking for some things to find
Rode my thumb to San Francisco, I worked down by the bank
Got some schoolin' faithful by the law
The hardest thing I learned there was there ain't no easy way
To get ahead behind those county walls
So it's so long California reckon, I'll be a movin' on
I'm leavin' even if I had to crawl
I've got some losin's laying round
That I left them burn, waitin' there for me in Omaha
Omaha, you've been weighin' heavy on my mind
I guess I never really left it all
I'm turnin' all those roads I walked around the other way
I'm coming back to you Omaha
2.Honky Tonk Heroes
Lyricist：Billy Joe Shaver
Low down leaving sun
Done did everything that needs done
Woe is me, why can't I see？
I'd best be leaving well enough alone
Where do it go, the good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
Piano rolled blues, I danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
All them lovable losers, no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
And generally blowing all of my hard earned pay
Piano rolled blues, I danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
All them lovable losers and no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me
Where do it go, the good Lord only knows
Seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
And generally blowing all of my hard earned pay
Piano rolled blues, I danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
All them lovable losers and no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me, yeah
3.Old Five ＆ Dimers Like Me
Lyricist：Billy Shaver
I've spent the lifetime making up my mind to be
More than the measure of what I thought others could see
Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between
Catalog buyers and old five and dimers like me
She stood beside me letting me know she would be
Something to lean on when everything ran out on me
Fenced yards ain't hole cards and like is not never will be
Reason for rhymers and old five and dimers like me
It's taking me so long and now that I know I believe
All that I do or say is all I ever will be
Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be
Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me
Mhm mhm an old five and dimer is all I intended to be
4.Low Down Freedom
Lyricist：Billy Joe Shaver
Long haired young girl, here beside me
Fit my body, warm my mind
Sleeping quiet, never knowing
By tomorrow she'll be one more thing I'm gonna leave behind
Like them big wheels, I'll be rolling
Like them rivers, gonna flow to sea
'Cause I'd rather leave here knowing
That I'd made a fool of love before it made a fool of me
Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'll ever lose, Lord
You're as empty as my pockets
From the top of where you start down to the bottom of my shoes
Open highway lonesome wind blow
Tell me something I don't know
Wrap them warm arms around me
Tell me why I'm gonna leave when I don't really want to go
Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'll ever lose
You're as empty as my pockets
From the top of where you start down to the bottom of my shoes
Low down freedom, you done cost me
Everything I'll ever lose, Lord
You're as empty as my pockets
5.Ain't No God In Mexico
Lyricist：Bill Joe Shaver
Down the road a ways I've heard said
A new day's coming on
Where the women folks are friendly
And the law leaves you alone
I'll believe it when I see it
And I haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me just keep on talking
I'm just looking for my hat
There ain't no God in Mexico
Ain't no way to understand
How that border crossing feeling
Makes a fool out of a man
If I'd never felt the sunshine
Hell, I would not curse the rain
If my feet could fit a railroad track
I guess I'd been a train
Me and Louise Higgins Botham
Used to chase across the yard
Back in 1947 that's when
More than times were hard
Well, pity me I didn't find
The line in time like a fool
In front of God and everybody
I politely blew my cool
Ain't no God in Mexico
Ain't no comfort in the kin
When you're down in Madamoris
Gettin' busted by the man
If I'd never felt the sunshine
Hell, I would not curse the rain
If I hadn't been railroaded
Well I guess I'd been a train
6.Black Rose
Lyricist：Billy Joe Shaver
Way down in Virginia
Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
Lived a simple man and a dominiker hen
And a rose of a different name
Well, the first time I felt lightning
I was standing in the drizzling rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
And a rose of a different name
Well, the Devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
And help me leave that black rose alone
When the Devil made that woman
Lord, it threw the pattern away
She was built for speed with the tools you need
To make a new fool every day
Way down deep and dirty
On the darker side of shame
I caught a cane cuttin' man and a bottle of gin
With a rose of a different name
The Devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone
Devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone
7.We Had It All
Lyricist：Donnie Fritts, Troy Seals
I can hear the wind blowin' in my mind
Just the way it used to sound through the Georgia pines
You were there to answer when I called
You and me Lord knows we had it all
Remember how I used to touch your hair
While reaching for a feeling that was always there
You were the best thing in my life that I recall
You and me, we had it all
I know that we can never live those times again
So I'll let my dreams take me back to where we've been
And I'll stay with you girl as long as I can
Oh it was so good, was so good, mmm, when I was your man
I'll never stop believing in your smile
Even though you didn't stay, it was all worthwhile
You were the best thing in my life that I recall
You and me, we had it all
8.Willy the Wandering Gypsy and Me
Lyricist：Billy Joe Shaver
Three fingers whiskey pleasures the drinkers
And moving does more than the same thing for me
Willy he tells me that doers and thinkers
Say, â½Movin' is a closest thing to being freeâ
Willy rosins his riggins laid back his wages
He's dead certain ridin' the big rodeo
My woman's tight with an overdue baby
And Willy keeps yelling, â½Hey Gypsy let's goâ
Willy you're wild as a Texas Blue Norther
Ready rolled from the same makins as me
Well, I reckon we're gonna ramble till Hell freeze us over
Willy the wandering Gypsy and me
Well ladies we surely will take up your favors
And we'll surely worn you there never will be
A single soul living that could put brand or handle
On Willy the wandering Gypsy and me
We'll dance on the mountains, shout in the canyons
Swarm it ain't loose herd like a wild buffalo
Jammin' our heads full of figures
And angles and tellin' us stuff that we already know
Willy you're wild as a Texas Blue Norther
Ready rolled from the same makins as me
Well, I reckon we're gonna ramble till Hell freeze us over
Willy the wandering Gypsy and me
Yeah, Willy you're wild as a Texas Blue Norther
Ready rolled from the same makins as me
And I reckon we're gonna ramble till Hell freeze us over
Willy the wandering Gypsy and me
9.You Asked Me To
Lyricist：Waylon Jennings, Billy Joe Shaver
Long ago and far away
In my ol' common labor shoes
I turned the world all which a way
Just because you asked me to
Like unto no other feel
Simple love is simple true
There's no end to what I'd do
Just because you asked me to
Let the world call me a fool
But if things are right with me and you
That's all that matters and I'll do
Anything you asked me to
Knowing how much I love you
And after all that I've been through
I'd turn and walk away from you
Just because you asked me to
(Lord, I hope you'll never do)
Let the world call me a fool
But if things are right with me and you
That's all that matters
And I'll do anything you asked me to
10.Ride Me Down Easy
Lyricist：Billy Joe Shaver
Highway she's a hotter than nine times the hell
Rides are as scarce as the rain
When your down to your last shuck with nothing to sell
And too far away from the train
Been a good month of Sunday's and a guitar ago
Had a tall drink of yesterday's wine
Left a long string of friends, some sheets in the wind
And some satisfied woman behind
Hey ride me down easy Lord, ride me on down
Leave word in the dust where I lay
Say I'm easy come, easy go
Easy to love when I stay
Lets go on the mountain, raise hell on the hill
I locked horns with the devil himself
Been a rodeo fool, a son of a gun
And a hobo with stars in his crown
So ride me down easy Lord, ride me on down
Leave word in the dust where I lay
Say I'm easy come, easy go
And easy to love when I stay
Ride me down easy Lord, ride me on down
