True Country 03:31
TRUE COUNTRY Booked a trip down to Nashville, Tennessee To find my southern roots and drink the Yankee out of me Stopped in a honky tonk to spend my dime There I met an Old timer who shared these words over wine... He said “So you think you can't be country” .............. unless you carry a shotgun in your car and have an unpaid tab at the local bar and seven long necks are chilling in the fridge and you've got your second cousin for a date Pay your bills 91 days late and have a Gal who airs your laundry on the line and you've got 10 maxed out credit cards and a rusted tractor in the yard but if you want to be true country son it's just a state of mind -------solo over chorus section ------- So I went back up to Boston feeling good With a bottle of Rebel Yell, a straight six under my hood. I polished my B Bender to a shine but I won't forget that old timer’s words he shared over wine.. He said “so you think you can't be country ..... unless you carry a shotgun in your car and have an unpaid tab at the local bar and seven long necks are chilling in the fridge and you've got your second cousin for a date Pay your bills 91 days late and have a Gal who airs your laundry on the line You like drinkin’ brown booze, smoking grass shooting at street signs as you pass and making bets on lucky number nine you've got 10 maxed out credit cards and a rusted tractor in the yard but if you want to be true country it's just a state of mind solo over verse up to - chorus He said “so you think you can't be country ..... (stop) unless you carry a shotgun in your car and have an unpaid tab at the local bar and seven long necks are chilling in the fridge and you've got your second cousin for a date Pay your bills 91 days late and have a Gal who airs your laundry on the line and you've got 10 maxed out credit cards and a rusted tractor in the yard but if you want to be true country son it's just a state of mind Yeah if you want to be true country Son it's just a state of mind. written by Steve Cerilli (BMI) Copyright 2011 All right reserved.

BOPO Train 03:56
Woke up on the wrong side of the BOPO Train Lost my balance on the high speed lane reckless words got the best of me Now my baby done set me free That's why I'm in a mission to cure my condition With a little wine and a hit of green That's why I'm on a mission to fix my condition With a little time , maybe a shot of Beam Fighting with a lady , you'll never win She's cataloged your every sin she'll wear you down with steel blue eyes Because it's too late to apologize That's why I'm in a mission to cure my condition With a little wine and a hit of green That's why I'm on a mission to fix my condition With a little time , maybe a shot of Beam I get a little squirrely about half past ten Think about boarding the train again Ride all night straight thru the day With Johnny, Jack , Jimmy and Jose That's why I'm in a mission to cure my condition With a little wine and a hit of green That's why I'm on a mission to fix my condition With a little time , maybe a shot of Beam Copyright 2011 Steve Cerilli all rights reserved
