This song captures the essence of living fast, breaking rules, and enjoying the ride without worrying about the consequences. It's a tribute to the wild days of youth and the memories that come from living life to the fullest.  And a twist on words ;)

That Lonesome Wind

Young, Dumb and Full Of Some

You Never Know About Me  (performed by Jim Collins)

A Place To Stay

It's Time To Get Tough

Maybe I'm Blind

His tank was filled with high test, hell on wheels loaded down with the devil’s brew
Mountain people loved old Cross Eyed Willie when he brought them a jug or two


CROSSED EYED WILLIE 2 3 23

Every Single Raindrop

Good 'Ole Days

what happens when a heartache leads to me grabbing the whiskey 

WHISKEY AND ME - AUSTIN RAY.mp3

So Hard

right places


[Verse 1]
Buddy called, said, “Whatcha into?”
I said, “Piddlin’ — messin’ with the A/C, too
Lookin’ at a car I’ll never buy
Wrote a line or two, let the day slide by”

[Verse 2]
Stared out the window, cracked a grin
Filmed a hummin’ bird buzzin’ in the wind
Helped pull a golf cart out the mud
Found a Fireball, gave it a tug

[Chorus]
Ain’t done much, but it’s feelin’ right
Call it killin’ time, I call it life
Ain’t rich, but hell — I’m paid
In slow days, sun rays, and lemonade

[Bridge]
Started a book, forgot the plot
Think it’s ‘bout a girl or maybe not

[Chorus – repeat]
Ain’t done much, but it’s feelin’ right
Call it killin’ time, I call it life
Ain’t rich, but hell — I’m paid
In slow days, sun rays, and lemonade

[Outro – spoken or sung]
Found a Fireball under the seat…
Ate it.
Good day.

Slow Days, Sun Rays, and Lemonade
