TWO FOR TUESDAY

Link: [Steve Earle]

Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

Copperhead Road

Steve Earle

Well my name’s John Lee Pettimore

Same as my daddy and his daddy before

You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here

He only came to town about twice a year

He’d buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line

Everybody knew that he made moonshine

Now the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad

He headed up the holler with everything he had

It’s before my time but I’ve been told

He never come back from Copperhead Road

Grandaddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge

Bought it at an auction at the Mason’s Lodge

Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side

Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside

Well him and my uncle tore that engine down

I still remember that rumblin’ sound

Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night

Heard mama cryin’ knew somethin’ wasn’t right

He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly road

You could smell the whiskey burnin’ down Copperhead Road

I volunteered for the Army on my birthday

They draft the white trash first around here anyway

I done two tours of duty in Vietnam

I came home with a brand new plan

I take the seed from Colombia and Mexico

I just plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road

And now the D.E.A.’s got a chopper in the air

I wake up screamin’ like I’m back over there

I learned a thing of two from Charlie don’t you know

You better stay away from Copperhead Road

Copperhead Road

Copperhead Road

Feel All Right

Steve Earle

I was born my papa’s son

A wanderin’ eye and a smokin’ gun

Now some of you would live through me

Lock me up and throw away the key

Or just find a place to hid away

Hope that I’ll just go away

Ha

I feel all right

I feel all right tonight

I feel all right

I feel all right tonight

I’ll bring you precious contraband

And ancient tales from distant lands

Of conquerors and concubines

And conjurers from darker times

Betrayal and conspiracy

Sacrilege and heresy

I feel all right

I feel all right tonight

I feel all right

I feel all right tonight

I got everything you want or need

Your darkest fear

Your fondest dream

I ask you questions

Tell you lies

Criticize and sympathize

Be careful what you wish for friend

Because I’ve been to Hell

And now I’m aback again

I feel all right

I feel all right tonight

I got everything you want or need

Your darkest fear

Your fondest dream

I ask you questions

Tell you lies

Criticize and sympathize

Yeah be careful what you wish for friend

Because I’ve been to Hell

And now I’m aback again

I feel all right

Yeah I feel all right tonight

Yeah I feel all right

And I feel all right tonight

Feel all right

Feel all right
