"Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers / And they've been known to pick a song or two / Lord, they get me off so much / They pick me up when I'm feelin' blue, now how 'bout you?"
"What keeps me goin' I don't really know / Can't be the money, Lord, knows I'm always broke / Could it be the satisfaction of bein' understood / When the people really love ya and let you know when it's good"
"I made mine in Alabama / And I found mine down in Dixieland / I didn't die out in Montana, no Lord / You let me get back to my old homeland"
"Moonlight and magnolia, starlight in your hair / All the world a dream come true"
"Watch your speed in Boiling Springs / They ain't got a thing to do/ They'll get you every time"
"Lazy days in mid-July / Country Sunday mornin' / Dusty haze on summer highways / Sweet magnolia callin'"
"Just hear that whip-poor-will / See the stars light up the purple sky / Feel that lonesome chill / 'Cause when the wind is right / You'll hear his song"
"Whiskey in your glass, here's to turning up / Slowing down and cars that go real fast"
