Shooting Stars |
| This guy walked into a bar one night |
| Said his name was Waylon Payne |
| Had an Elvis kind of swagger |
| Just a guitar to his name |
| He was rough around the edges |
| But he sang just like a bird |
| So we wrote some songs in Hollywood |
| And made a record no one heard |
| Turn em up and dim the lights |
| Hes gonna take us for a ride down memory lane tonight |
| Y’all get your whiskeys and raise em high |
| Here’s to every shooting star that never got to shine |
| Its guys like Townes Van Zandt and Guy Clark |
| They never really made it big but they sure left a mark |
| With those poetry laced melodies, on all of us |
| God bless the boys from Texas for sticking to their guns |
| Turn em up, dim the lights |
| They’re gonna take us for a ride down memory lane tonight |
| Y’all get your whiskeys and raise em high |
| Here’s to every shooting star that never got to shine |
| There was a time I thought I was born to burn so bright |
| Maybe I was, maybe in another life |
| All I know is this old road ain’t always as it seems |
| One wrong turn might take you right to where you’re supposed to be |
| Turn em up and dim the lights |
| Hes gonna take us for a ride down memory lane tonight |
| Y’all get your whiskeys and raise em high |
| Here’s to every shooting star that never got to shine |
| Turn em up and dim the lights |
| Hes gonna take us for a ride down memory lane tonight |
| Y’all get your whiskeys and raise em high |
| Here’s to every shooting star that never got to shine |
