There is a stretch between Bennettesville, SC and Asheboro, NC where radio stations are few and far between. I managed to pick up a couple of country stations (not my usual talk or classic rock) and found some lyrics I really liked (note: right now, I don't have the connection to look up names or correct any mistakes in my memory -- I think I'll leave the posts as they are being written.)
Song one -- chorus:
If you're goin' thru Hell, keep on goin'From song two's chorus:
Don't look back -- if you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the Devil even knows you're there.
And he bowed his head to JesusSong two reminds me of my Dad.
and he stood for Uncle Sam
He only loved one women
Always proud of what 'e had
[He] said his greatest contribution
is the ones he'd leave behind
Raised on the ways and gentle kindness
of a small town southern man.
The songs I write tend to be countrified -- I'm not really sure why I don't listen to those stations more often.
