"I Got A Name" lyrics
"I Got A Name"
Like the pine trees lining the winding road
I gotta name I gotta name
Like the singin' bird and the croakin' toad
I gotta name I gotta name
And I carry it with me like my pappy did
But I'm livin' the dream that he kept hid
Movin' me down the highway
Rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by
Like the north wind whistlin' down the sky
I gotta song I gotta song
Like a whippoorwill and a baby's cry
I gotta song I gotta song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere well I'll go there proud
Movin' me down the highway...
And I'm gonna go there free
Like the fool I am and I'll always be
I gotta dream I gotta dream
They can change their minds but they can't change me
I gotta dream I gotta dream
I know I could share it if you want me to
So if you're goin' my way well I'll go with you
Movin' me down the highway...

Alan Jackson - "Mercury Blues" Well if I had money,
I'd tell you what I'd do,
I go downtown buy a Mercury or two.
Crazy bout a Mercury,
Lord I'm crazy bout a Mercury,
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury & cruise it up & down the road....
