The Essential David Allan Coe

Trick or treat Witch's Brew Candy

Some songs don’t just play — they carry you. They can take you back home to your mama’s laugh, drop you onto that gym floor at sixteen, or even bring her back into your arms again. Every memory, every feeling, every heartbeat hits harder when the right song’s on.

When the Right Song’s On
Written by Brook Stanley

Here we go.

When the right song’s on, it can stop you in your tracks,
Take you down a dirt road, pull the years right back.
It can put you right where you belong,
Everything hits harder when the right song’s on.

Everybody knows it feels like bliss,
When the right song’s on.

The right song can carry you to where it all began,
The right song can woo HER back to you again.
The right song can take you back home,
To your mama’s laugh, no matter where you roam.
It can touch your heart, it can heal old pain,
Make you sixteen on a Friday again.
Everybody knows as it pulls you along,
Every memory hits harder when the right song’s on.

It can drop you back on that gym floor in June,
Dancin’ in the glow of a country tune.
Every mile marker, every place you’ve gone,
Everything hits harder when the right song’s on.

Everybody knows it feels like bliss,
When the right song’s on.

The right song can carry you to where it all began,
The right song can woo HER back to you again.
The right song can take you back home,
To your mama’s laugh, no matter where you roam.
It can touch your heart, it can heal old pain,
Make you sixteen on a Friday again.
Everybody knows when the memories are strong,
Every memory hits harder when the right song’s on.

It don’t care where you are, it don’t care who you’ve been,
It’ll take you by the hand, and send you back to then.

The right song can carry you to where it all began,
The right song can woo HER back to you again.
The right song can take you back home,
To your mama’s laugh, no matter where you roam.
It can touch your heart, it can heal old pain,
Make you sixteen on a Friday again.
Everybody knows when you’re singing along,
Everything hits harder when the right song’s on.

When the right song’s on…
When the right song’s on…
Yeah, let’s turn that right song on.
