Lyrics:

My father had skin like leather,
Hands like steel
From a lifetime spent in the cotton fields.
Though he'd come home tired and dirty
Almost every night
He found the strength to smile at me
And hold my mama tight.
While that old transister radio
Would play the Opry out in the hall
I'd sit and watch their shadows glide across the wall

And they'd dance to a dixie lullaby
A picture of love beneath the southern sky
Oh my, what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby

I left home at 18
In a hand me down Chevrolet
Packed my mama's goodness
And my old man's stubborn ways
It was college, work and love
Then the babies came,
The youngest one's got his granddaddy's name,
And in the early morning hours
When my children could not sleep
I'd rock them in my arms to a simple beat

And I'd sing them a dixie lullaby
Hush baby dont you start to cry
Oh my what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby

My father was a mountain of a man
That was the description that I gave,
The morning that we laid him in his grave
There with my mama by his side
We said our last goodbye
To a man we thought would never die
And as I stood there in the fields of amazing grace
Oh how the tears ran down my face

And I sang him a dixie lullaby
We'll meet again, by and by
Oh my what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby

Oh my what a beautiful life,
Just like a dixie lullaby....

Lyrics:

Let's jump in my El Camino, roll the windows down
Thought we'd see what kind of trouble we could find in this messed up town
Put the Boss on the radio, take whatever comes
We'll go flyin' down the highway, with my arm around you,
Singin' Born to Run

It feels just like it should,
Must be some kinda miracle,
Like I got sun on my face,
And rain that ain't never gunna fall.
It feels so good,
Oh, it's almost spiritual
Tomorrow's no where in sight,
Right now, right here, tonight,
I feels just like it should

Well you got your good looks (uh huh)
And you got your style
And I'd drown here in this ocean,
Just to have you float my boat for a while
I've got a reputation,
But don't you worry 'bout that
Just give me a chance
And we're never gunna ever look back

It feels just like it should,
Must be some kinda miracle,
Like I got sun on my face,
And rain that ain't never gunna fall.
It feels so good,
Oh, it's almost spiritual
Tomorrow's no where in sight,
Right now, right here, tonight,
I feels just like it should

Maybe Romeo gets the girl this time
I guess everybody gets a chance to shine
And tonight is mine

It feels just like it should,
Must be some kinda miracle,
Like I got sun on my face,
And rain that ain't never gunna fall
It feels so good,
Oh, it's almost spiritual
Tomorrow's no where in sight,
Right now, right here, tonight,
I feels just like it should

Lyrics:

Keep your head there on my shoulder
Let's just lay here for a while
We can hurt when we're older
Girl don't worry about tomorrow
That just seems so far away
But for me, me and you all that we have to do as follow
just follow

(chorus)
Let me be the one who sets your feet up on a road where you've never been
Oh and baby girl
You can let me take these arms and wrap you up inside a night that will never end
I wanna be that man
If you let me
Come on baby let me

Baby leave those candles burning
Slide on over here to me
If you run with me girl you know we'll make this world stop turning
Just stop turning

(chorus 2x)
