1. _ Truck Drivin' Man
(ronnie vanzant -- ed king)
Well he's truckin' on down from memphis
Cruisin' down to new orleans
Tonight he sleeps alone with a cajun queen
Well there's smoke from the stacks a-blowin'
And he don't care where he's goin'
The only time he feels right is when he's rollin'
He's got roadmaps in his hand
Lord, drivin' just as hard as he can
Trying to dodge them scales and the man
Well i'm talkin' about
Truck drivin' man
Yea he'll always give ya, the best that he can.
White cups and coffee, lord yea
Its all that he needs
And he's all right by me
Truck drivin' man
Truck on
Truck driver
Shift your gears
He's got ladies up in north dakota
From the keys man, to minnesota
And he loves each and every one, least that's what he's told 'em
Lord, flannel shirts and blue jeans
Truck stops are routine
Tonight he sleeps alone with a cajun queen
Well i'm talkin' about
Truck drivin' man
Yea he'll always give ya, the best that he can.
White cups and coffee, lord yea
Its all that he needs
And he's all right by me
Truck drivin' man
Guitar
Truck driver
Well he's truckin' on down from memphis
Cruisin' down to new orleans
Tonight he sleeps alone with a cajun queen
Well there's smoke from the stacks a-blowin'
And he don't care where he's goin'
The only time he feels right is when he's rollin'
Well i'm talkin' about
Truck drivin' man
Yea he'll always give ya, the best that he can.
White cups and coffee, lord yea
Its all that he needs
And he's all right by me
Truck drivin' man
I said he's all right by me
Truck drivin' man
I said he's all right by me
Truck drivin' man
Play the guitar
Truck driver

2. _ Georgia Peaches
(ronnie vanzant -- steve gaines)
Well, you can see her walkin' down on peachtree street
She got high-heeled shoes and a dot on her cheek
She's lookin' good, she's headed downtown
Ain't got no money, honey
She knows her way around
I think she's cute, think she's cute as she can be
Talkin' about a funny talkin', honk-tonking georgia peach
Well these georgia peaches
Son they know their way around
They can take your money, son before you get sight of town
Well they talk a little funny, but they look so fine
Nine out of ten of them gonna sell you a dime
I think they're cute, think they're cute as they can be
Talkin' about a funny talkin', honk-tonking georgia peach
Well, peaches, peaches
Love them georgia peaches
Well, peaches, peaches
Love them georgia peaches
Well them georgia peaches
Sure do got the style
They'll steal your heart with a southern smile
Well they talk a little funny, but they look so fine
The older they get, i swear its like good wine
I think they're cute, think they're cute as they can be
Talkin' about a funny talkin', honk-tonking georgia peach
Talkin' about a funny talkin', honk-tonking georgia peach
I just seem to fall in love with the wrong things

3. _ Mr. Banker
(ronnie vanzant -- gary rossington)
Mister banker
Mister please, how much does money mean
Won't you reconsider mister
Won't you do this thing for me
Ain't got no house
Ain't got no car
All i got, lord, is my guitar
But you can have that mister banker
Won't you bury my papa for me
Oh mister banker please
Listen to how that sound
I would not be here on my knees
But hey mister banker
It means so much to me
Oh won't you reconsider mister
Won't you do this thing for me
I told you mister
I ain't got no house
Ain't got no car
I got me a 1950 les paul guitar
Won't you take it mister banker
Won't you bury my papa for me
Oh mister banker please

4. _ Simple Man
(gary rossington - ronnie vanzant)
Mama told me when i was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what i say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.
(chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that i want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
(chorus)
Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All i want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
(chorus)

5. _ One In The Sun
(steve gaines)
Somewhere the sun is shining
On some unhappy day
Somewhere there's people laughing
They think they've found the way
But its not me
Its not me, no no now
Its not me, its not me, its not me, its not me
I'm not the one
Well sure i used to cry, but i used to laugh to
I had ups as well as downs you see
But i been down now for so long
I've forgotten all my dreams.
Yea it must be me
It must be me, you know now
Its not me, its not me, its not me, its not me
I'm not the one in the sun
Since i became i've wondered what i've become
Lord i know it can't be much longer before
I find my place in sun
Sometimes i wonder will i figure something out
Will i find a reason good enough to live
Lord if it don't dawn on me pretty soon
I think something's gonna give
Yea it might be me
Yea it just might be me, yea
Its not me, no it can't be
'cause i'm not the one in the sun
No i'm not the one
Yea i'm not the one
But i'm not the one
Sorry to say i'm not the one

6. _ Take Your Time
(ronnie vanzant -- ed king)
My poor broke mama told me
When i was twelve years old
You eat and talk much too fast
There's one thing you should know
Take your time my sweet baby
Take your time my blue eyed son
Well you may never have his money
But you won't miss no rich man's fun
I can never give you money honey
I can never buy you clothes
But the way them women been lookin' at you
Someday you should have both
If you take your time my sweet baby
Take your time and love them slow
And if you play your cards right
You won't never wait no more
Well the ladies like their diamonds
They like their brand new clothes
But i was blessed with plenty of other things they love the most
I take my time with the ladies
I take my time and i love 'em slow
And since i turned thirteen
Lord, i ain't never wait no more
I can never give you money honey
I can never buy you clothes
But the way them schoolgirls look at you
Someday you should have both
If you take your time my sweet baby
Take your time and be my son
Well you might never have his money
But you won't miss his fun

7. _ Four Walls Of Raiford
(ronnie vanzant -- jeff carlisi)
Well them four walls of raiford, closing in on me
Doin' three to five hard labor, for armed robbery
I had two years behind, but i could not wait the time
Everytime i thought about it, well i died some more inside
And i had stripes on my back, memories that hurt
For the only time i seen sunshine is when i hit the dirt
Diggin' ditches for the chain gang, sleepin' in the cold
Oh lord please forgive me for i could not wait no more
And i comin' home to see you jesus
Well it feels so close this time
Please take mercy on this soldier
From the florida-georgia line
When they find me they must kill me
Oh jesus save my soul
I can't go back down to raiford
I can't take that anymore
Well these last few years behind me
Oh lord, have been so sad
I fought proudly for my country when the times were bad
Now they say i'm guilty, when they find me i must die
Only me and jesus know that i never stole a dime
Well when vietnam was over there was no work here for me
I had a pretty wife awaitin and two kids i had to feed
Well i'm one of america's heroes and when they shoot me down
Won't fly old glory proudly, put my medals in the ground
And i comin' home to see you jesus
Well it feels so close this time
Please take mercy on this soldier
From the florida-georgia line
When they find me they must kill me
Oh jesus save my soul
I can't go back down to raiford
I can't take that anymore

Why are you praying, my sweet morning dove
You're so afraid, but so hungry for love
Well i can give you love baby
Hugs and kisses, i can give you everything that you been missing

9. _ When You Got Good Friends
(allen collins -- ronnie vanzant)
You got to love ol' charlie daniels
You got to cut the rug with wet willie too
And you got to be a fan of the marshall tucker band
Before i'll sit down and have a drink with you
Yes, bakersfield has got ol' merle haggard
He's a bad, bad boy, yes indeed
Nashville's got a million and one guitar pickers
But i guess my favorite would be the cdb
(chorus)
Yes there's a few good rockers in new york city
Guess the big la, it never cared for me
So won't you tell all them hollywierd writer people
That it just don't make a damn
When you got good friends like me
Never dick on good ol' waylon jennings
Or willie nelson, bob wills or me
Well they're playin' that good ol' country-western
You know this thing they call the texas swing
(chorus)
