I know you always liked country music
But I guess you never meant to be a song
Well maybe darlin someday when I am famous
You will find yourself singin along
When I fell in love with country music
I knew I gave my whole heart away
But that don’t mean that funk and punk and disco
Don’t make me tap my toes every day
CHORUS:
Thank goodness for cryin and lyin
Thank goodness for heart break and fear
Thank goodness for the fire of desire
Cuz it burned up and burned down my wasted years
I don’t mind a little cheese in my country music
Well nothin goes so well with a little whine
And the cure for excessive thinking is excessive drinkin’
A little whiskey before my beer and I’ll be fine
Nothing gets old in country music
You can use that 1, 4, 5 a thousand times
If only the same were true for life
By now I might be somebodys wife
CHORUS
Thank goodness
Thank god

Lyrics:
Class B license work
Driving dual trannie trucks all day
To drilling rigs and loading bays
Lots of overtime to make my pay
They think I’m old at 55
They think I’m quiet most the time
And I like to drive at night
Just to see the derrick lights
I like to drive at night
Just to see the derrick lights
It’s a pretty fine stretch of land
Like to own a piece of it someday
But I’m sending too much take home pay
To kids and an ex-wife in L.A.
Every check I send home in the mail
To a love that long since failed
And I like to drive at night
Just to see those derrick lights
I like to drive at night
Just to see those derrick lights
Biloxi, Fairbanks, Baton Rouge, Midland
Booming, busting, moving on again
Been living here a couple years
Never thought I’d ever call it home
And I lay my head down west of town
In a man camp that the company owns
Some days just feels like doing time
But you come and go anytime you like
And I like to drive at night
Just to see the derrick lights
I like to drive at night
Just to see the derrick lights
Yeah I like to drive at night

There is more to Mountains
Than I’ve ever known
A secret I lately beheld
And there’s more to rivers
The water and the stone
More to me than flesh and bone
Good Lord, the sun is setting in my eyes
At my pearl I shall not shield them
For I’ve never seen such beauty as this
Blind me with your light oh Lord, dear Lord
Blind me with you light oh Lord
Good Lord, the day she came into this world
I knew my life had forever change
For I’ve never know such a feeling as this
Bind me with your love oh Lord, dear Lord
Bind me with your love oh Lord
There is more to Mountains
Than I’ve ever known
A secret I lately beheld
And there’s more to rivers
Then water and the stone
More to me than flesh and bone
Good Lord, the sun is setting in my eyes
At my pearl I shall not shield them
For I’ve never known such beauty as this
Blind me with your light oh Lord, dear Lord
Blind me with you light oh Lord

Driving down the road
See how far we go
Just can’t seem to get you off my mind
The months and the miles to be without your smile
I just keep rollin down the line
CHORUS:
I just can’t wait
To see your smiling face
Miles and Miles and Miles down the road
Days they pass
Some not so fast
I’ll see you miles and miles down the road
Cold wind blows
The ground has gone and froze
I ain’t seen the sun for days and days
But now that you’re here
The sky is so clear
My worries are far away
CHORUS
Cold wind blows
The ground has gone and froze
I ain’t seen the sun for days and days
But now that you’re here
The sky is so clear
My worries are far away
CHORUS
