1. Now if there's a smile on my face, it's only there trying to fool the public
2. I am the magnificent. I'm backed by the shack of a soul boss
3. Came up to you one night noticed the look in your eye, I saw you was on your own, and it was alright, yeh it was alright
4. Look out! look out! your Momma will shout. You might as well go home
5. You sheltered me from harm. Kept me warm, kept me warm
6. You've done it all, you've broken every code. And pulled the rebel to the floor
7. Well you can hear the country song from far,And someone plays the honky tonk guitar
8. Tired of drifting, searching, shifting. From town to town
9. I was walkin' down the street. Concentratin' on truckin' right
10. I heard you on the wireless back in 52. Lying awake intent at tuning in on you
