Blind eyed woman what do you see? Are they just dreams or reality? Someday you may see the light and Close your eyes because it's too bright. Chorus She's a blind eyed woman, Chills you to the bone. She's a blind eyed woman, with a heart made of stone. Blind eyed woman never speaks, Always giving me that third degree. And you never know just what she means, Her life is like a fantasy. Chorus

Every day i go to work, Bossman gonna put me in the dirt. Tired eyes and worn out hands to meet the company's demands. Chorus I'm done workin' for the man And I've taken the abuse I can stand. I'll make it on my own worried hands, I'll grind until I make my stance, Find a way to make my pay because I'm done workin' for the man. Blood and sweat come with long hours To line the pockets of those in power. Worn out shoes and tattered clothes, Their suits tell you all to be told. Chorus

There's a chill in my bones, Feeling weary and old, But it isn't because of the cold. In times like these, Bring sorrow and grief When people die because of beliefs. There's hatred in the air And people don't care About anyone that isn't their own. We're building blockades To stop the parades In a place i"m ashamed to call home. Chorus Let's stop the hate Instead celebrate The day we became One human race. Why can't we agree To live in harmony Regardless of color or creed? And still love thy neighbor Who has another savior In hopes that we both can find peace, When we all feel helpless We start feeling selfish And solitude becomes the norm. That's no way to live, With no distinctive Plans to restructure the forms. Chorus

Freight train comin' on down the track Aint going home, it aint coming back. Heading to the south where the living's easy. The water's warm and grass is green. Stopped to eat a peach somewhere in Georgia To remember those who used to rock n roll. An old black man said "hey young fella, Listen close to what I have to tell ya" Chorus Southern wine is so fine The women here will blow your mind. Slip on down if you can find the time. All your troubles will pass you by You'll see what I mean, Give it a try, Come down and get drunk on southern wine. And that train it kept rollin' on down the rails And where it stopped you cannot fail. Stopped at a bar in Nashville baby, "cause the music there is wavy gravy. Pedal steel licks filled all the streets Making all the cowgirls move their feet. I asked what all the fuss is about, They looked at me and began to shout. Chorus
