(Verse 1) Come down to the bayou, oh, I see ya’ll near, Your city shoes ain’t fit for the muck ‘round here. Water’s still as a graveyard, trees don’t sway, But there’s whispers in the shadows tellin' you to stay away. (Chorus) The swamp knows all, every lie, every sin, What you try to hide, it’ll pull you back in. Roots run deep, like the secrets ya keep, One step too far, and you'll sink in too deep. (Verse 2) There’s eyes in the water, and claws in the mud, A smell in the air, thick like old blood. You laugh at my warnin’, but hush, listen close— The cypress don’t like ya, and neither do the ghosts. (Chorus) The swamp knows all, every lie, every sin, What you try to hide, it’ll pull you back in. Roots run deep, like the secrets ya keep, One step too far, and you'll sink in too deep. (Bridge) People disappear, like fog at dawn, You’ll just be a story, a whisper long gone. A gator’s grin ain’t the scariest thing, It’s the stillness that’ll grab ya, won’t let ya leave. (Verse 3) A cold breeze calls, like breath on your neck, Bones crunch soft where the spirits collect. Take heed, city folk, turn ‘round and be gone— This swamp don’t forgive, and it don’t take long. (Chorus) The swamp knows all, every lie, every sin, What you try to hide, it’ll pull you back in. Roots run deep, like the secrets ya keep, One step too far, and you'll sink in too deep. (Outro) So take this last warnin’, turn back ‘fore ya drown, Cuz the swamp remembers, and it don’t want ya ‘round.

[Verse] Well I rode that old trail thought I knew every mile Had my boots had my hat I was walkin' with style But the dust kept on risin' the wind never slowed And I kept on believin' in stories untold [Verse 2] Saw a shadowy figure in the twilight's last gleam With a gaze like a wildfire it shattered my dream Said “The heart is a highway not paved in pure gold” And the tales that they whisper will leave you so cold [Chorus] Killin' my darlings they fall in the night Swept by the river washed out by the light Each memory forsaken each promise I cry In a land of forgotten where lovers must die [Verse 3] In the silence of moonlight where secrets reside Love and despair like fast rivers collide I held to your echo it's slipped from my hand Wanderin' the wasteland where heartache is planned [Chorus] Killin' my darlings they fall in the night Swept by the river washed out by the light Each memory forsaken each promise I cry In a land of forgotten where lovers must die [Bridge] Through the thorny briar where wild roses bloom Even the fairest will meet darkest doom Lyrics and heartache are just part of the show In the theater of shadows we'll reap what we sow
[Verse] I roam the streets of distant lands But my heart's in the soil where I tread A flag that waves above the sands Echoes stories that we've bled [Chorus] Winds of my homeland call my name Across the seas we are the same No matter where my feet may tread I'll find my way back home instead [Verse 2] In crowded cities far and vast I carry memories of our past A melting pot of laughs and tears We’ve built a legacy that endears [Chorus] Winds of my homeland call my name Across the seas we are the same No matter where my feet may tread I'll find my way back home instead [Bridge] Borders may divide us wide But in our hearts we coincide Under skies so vast and blue Our spirit flows Forever true [Verse 3] Embrace the cultures Hear the sound In every corner We're renowned But when the sun sets down to rest I feel my homeland is the best

Boots are shined and hats are flying Everyone is ready for a rodeo don't be shy Swing your partner take a step back Now it's time to learn this cowboy track Slide to the left, dip to the right Swing those hips to this honky tonk night Tip your hat, give a little lip That's it y'all we're two stepping to the cowboy dip Take a heel, toe then quick lil spin Stomp once stomp twice then do it all again Now the music's up the lights are low C'mon y'all put on a country show Slide to the left dip to the right Grab your partner and squeeze them tight Swing those hips tip that hat give a little lip Yeah just like that we're two stepping to the cowboy dip So slap your boots pull out a chew, make the ground shake oh shimmy shake So let's take it low oh so low bring it back high Throw those hats way up high Give your hips that flip We're shutting it down with the cowboy dip We're two stepping down to the cowboy dip
Saying goodbye isn't the hard part Filling the emptiness she left is the challenge Am I too sensitive? To vulnerable? To dumb? Every girl who makes me happy seems to leave and hurt me as quick as they arrive I gave you the key to my heart, thinking I could trust you I was wrong How many times can the world hurt a man before he hurts it back Why does it feel like I get crushed by every girl Maybe it's my fault Did I do something wrong? Is it the way I sit or the way I act Is it my own doing that gets me hurt? A boy like me in such a big world can never know Was it your dark curls or you're hazel eyes that I liked Maybe it was your kind persaniltly How you remind me of sweet, sweet candy But I'll never taste that candy again From now on, we are like two strangers Strangers with lots of memories, some good, some bad Some I wish I could forget, though I know I cant Others memriose I hope to keep with me my whole life

[Verse] Deep in the forest where the shadows creep, A jazzy goblin never sleeps, He strums his lute by the fire's bright, Singing his tunes to the moon’s delight. [Verse 2] With pointy ears and a toothy grin, He starts to sway as the night begins, His tunes so catchy, folks gather 'round, Even the owls, they hoot the sound. [Chorus] Hey, goblin, play that swingin' song, We’ll dance and laugh all night long, Your jazzy rhythm keeps us on our toes, From dusk 'til dawn, everyone knows. [Verse 3] Mossy logs and toadstools tall, His stage for one, he entertains all, A goblin band with a soulful beat, Their music wild, yet oh-so-sweet. [Bridge] Through the night, the forest glows, With every note, the magic grows, Leaves and branches join the fray, In a goblin jazz café. [Chorus] Hey, goblin, play that swingin' song, We’ll dance and laugh all night long, Your jazzy rhythm keeps us on our toes, From dusk 'til dawn, everyone knows.
His boots made a swishing sound slow and low As he walked across that old bridge worn down long ago Lost in the thoughts of her once by his side Till fate dealt it's blow and luck ran dry Down by the river Bend where heart beats slow Eyes fixed on memories that won't let go A cowboys sorrow a silent hymn In the quiet where even wolves grow dim, down by the river Bend He remembers her laughter soft and bright Warmth like like sunrise, piercing the night But the fire's gone cold, and the shadows stay As he walks these paths where the wild wolves play Each step feels heavy, his spirit torn Like echoes of thunder after the storm By the rivers edge where dreams run dry He feels her ghost in the evening sky And though he's lost in the shadows holding There's a whisper of warmth in the nights cold A promise faint, like the stars above That somewhere out there waits a love So he lifts his gaze to the midnight sky A broken heart, but a soul that won't die In the quiet stillness he finds his breath A step forward healing a life after death
[Verse] Morning sun on the dusty trail Coffee boiling in a battered pail He loves his brew strong and bold Like the stories the old folks told [Verse 2] Under the stars he rides alone A gaming console by his side Modding worlds till the break of dawn Pixels glowing where dreams reside [Chorus] Coffee cowboys drinkin' deep Double shot to help them keep Riding through their pixel dreams Where everything's not what it seems [Verse 3] High noon showdown in a digital town Quick draw challenges pixel crowns In the saloon he takes a sip With every mod he lets creativity rip [Bridge] Code and caffeine dance in flight Transforming night into a vibrant light They mix like whiskey in a storm Brewing warm in tales new born [Chorus] Coffee cowboys drinkin' deep Double shot to help them keep Riding through their pixel dreams Where everything's not what it seems
Got my bags packed, sunlight spilling in, Footsteps on asphalt, where the story begins. Wind whispers softly, through the leaves of time, Chasing down the echoes, of a simpler rhyme. We’re on this journey, where the wild hearts roam, Through the ups and downs, we’ll find our way home. Every twist and turn, is a lesson we learn, On this endless road, where the fires still burn.
(Verse 1) Oh, Tommy's got a tongue that won't be still, He chatters like the waves upon the shore; With tales of pirates and a mighty thrill, He spins his yarns 'til we can't take no more. (Chorus) Yo ho, let him talk, let him prattle away, We'll laugh and we'll groan as he goes on his spree; With every wild story, he brightens the day, But sometimes we wish he'd just let us be! (Verse 2) From morning till dusk, he’s got words to share, About the treasures buried ‘neath the sand; He’ll regale us with tales of a sea so rare, While we nod and pretend to understand. (Chorus) Yo ho, let him talk, let him prattle away, We'll laugh and we'll groan as he goes on his spree; With every wild story, he brightens the day, But sometimes we wish he'd just let us be! (Verse 3) So raise up your mugs, let’s toast to our mate, For Tommy the talker, he’s one of a kind; Though we may complain, we appreciate The joy that his chatter brings to our minds. (Chorus) Yo ho, let him talk, let him prattle away, We'll laugh and we'll groan as he goes on his spree; With every wild story, he brightens the day, But sometimes we wish he'd just let us be!
[Verse] We once chased the stars above Laughed in the echoes of our love Now the nights are colder still Dreams dissolve down the hill [Verse 2] Hopes once blossomed in the spring Now silence is the song we sing Footsteps echo through the halls Memories patched on our walls [Chorus] Love was a sweater weather spree Worn too thin Unraveled by me Stitches ripped We fall apart Cold breeze now Pierces the heart [Verse 3] Walk the streets where we first met Snowflakes kiss I can't forget Promises fade with the dawn Loneliness A sweater worn [Bridge] Fingers trace the ghost of you In every place An empty hue Shadows linger on the floor Love's memento We ignore [Chorus] Love was a sweater weather spree Worn too thin Unraveled by me Stitches ripped We fall apart Cold breeze now Pierces the heart
