LYRICS
Steel wheels rolling on an endless track
Sun comes up, never looking back
Coffee's cold and the radio's dead 
These boots keep moving straight ahead 
Every morning starts the same old way 
Another dollar for another day

Keep on, 
Keep on, 
Keep on keeping on 
Keep on,
Keep on, 
Keep on, keeping on
Keep on,
Keep on,
Thru the breaking dawn

Back is breaking but the bills don't care 
Yesterday's tired meets tomorrow's prayer
Kids need feeding and the rent comes due 
Do what you gotta to see it through 
Times are changing but you stand your ground 
Don’t matter the world keeps spinning around

Keep on, 
Keep on, 
Keep on keeping on 
Keep on,
Keep on, 
Keep on, keeping on
Keep on,
Keep on,
Thru the breaking dawn

When your bones are aching and your spirit's worn
You still get up every goddamn morn 
When the road gets longer and the price is high
Remember, friend, remember why—

There's a rhythm in the struggle's beat
Like a drummer pounding thru the heat
Every heartbeat is a battle cry
You can't stop til you finally die
Till that day comes knocking at your door
Lace them up and give a little more

Keep on,
Keep on,
Keep on keeping on 
Keep on, Keep on, 
Through the night through the dawn 
Keep on, 
Keep on, 
Keep on keeping on

Keep On

Them Pants

LYRICS
Three dots for twenty minutes
just to send "hey what's good"
Got me grinning, you’re bad at hiding it
Playing hard but I know where you stood

You think you're slick, you think you win
`Cause look at me with my...

Stupid grin, stupid grin
Got me wearing this stupid grin
Can't help myself when you begin
Got me wearing this stupid grin

But hold up, caught you double-checking
When I walked past you today
Mr. Cool, your pose is slipping
Saw you watching when I walked away

I got you spun, I think I win
Look at you with your...

Stupid grin, stupid grin
Now YOU'RE wearing that stupid grin
Try to play it off but I saw you spin
Boy, you're wearing that stupid grin

We both know (we both know)
This game is won (game is won)
Two stupid grins
One look, I'm done
We both won

Stupid
Stupid
You make me stupid
With your stupid grin
Stupid
Stupid
(fade out and repeat)

Stupid Grin

LYRICS
Where waters marry in the valley low
My father's father fed the furnace glow
Bridges, rosaries of steel
Every rivet proof of something real

When the coke fires died, fires died
We still tried, we fuckin' tried

HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers runnin’ through
HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers run through me, run through you
Blood and water, rust and rain
Glory days and years of pain
HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers run through

Empty mills, cathedrals in the dark
Broken windows, broken dreams, broken hearts
But holy ground don't lose its prayer
We built it once, tear it down, fuck it, we don’t care

When the coke fires died, fires died
We still tried, we fuckin' tried

HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers runnin’ through
HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers run through me, runs through you
Blood and water, rust and rain
Glory days and years of pain
HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers run through

Four hundred bridges built by hand
Four hundred bridges, where we make our stand
We’re the children of the coal and flame
World keeps changing but the heart's the same
THE HEART'S THE SAME!
THE HEART'S THE SAME!

New towers rising where the smokestacks fell
Same calloused hands still given’ them fuckers hell
The rivers know our names by now
Never saw us break, never seen us bow

HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers runnin’ through
HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers run through me, through you
Blood and water, rust and rain
Glory days and years of pain
HEY! HEY! HEY! Three rivers run through

Three rivers run through me!
Three rivers run through you!
THREE RIVERS RUN THROUGH!

LYRICS
Black and yellow stripes should've been a sign 
Heard the buzz, but my eyes were blind
Couldn’t see it, didn’t feel it, but now I do
Too late, frozen, stung by you (you, you)

Know you’re gonna leave a mark on me
But there’s no running now, no running now

They say it's never any fun to get stung
But you make my head hum (my body numb, acting dumb)
Little bit of hurt never hurt no one
They say it's never any fun
(But they’re wrong, `cause you’re all right)

Bodies dancing like a hive, smell of honey in the air
Probably need a doctor, but can't stop, don't care
You're running through my system, shouldn't want it like I do
But something 'bout the swelling just makes me want more of you

Feel the buzz, it's getting louder now
Think I want you to sting me again somehow

They say it's never any fun to get stung
But you make my head hum (my body numb, acting dumb)
Little bit of hurt never hurt no one
They say it's never any fun
(But they’re wrong, `cause you’re all right)

Dizzy from the fever, where I'm blushing is the proof
The sting? Yeah, it hurts, but that's my truth

They say it's never any fun to get stung
But you make my head hum (my body numb, acting dumb)
Little bit of hurt never hurt no one
They say it's never any fun
(But they’re wrong, `cause you’re all right)
You’re all right

Stung

LYRICS
When do you beat the sun to rise?
When do you lace up, sleep still in your eyes?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!
How often do you weather the storm?
How often do you beat the fuckin’ norm?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!
When does the grind keep grinding?
When do you get shit done without reminding?
EVERY DAMN DAY!

No excuses, no complaints
No need to be a saint
Rain, shine or holiday just fuckin’ show up
EVERY DAMN DAY!
EVERY DAMN DAY!

When do you keep the lights burning?
When do you stand in the fire?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!
When do you hold the line, brother?
When do you bleed for each other?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!
How often do you shoulder the burden?
How often must you push through the hurting?
EVERY DAMN DAY!

No excuses, no complaints
You don’t need to be no saint
Rain, shine or holiday, just fuckin’ show up
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!

They don't write songs about us
We don't get no parade
But we're the ones who built this place
Brick by brick, face to face

When you gotta look yourself in the mirror?
When do you force your purpose clearer?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!
How often do you keep the faith burning?
How often do you gotta keep learning?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!
When does your word become iron?
When do you speak truth `stead of lyin’?
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!

No excuses, no complaints
I ain't looking to be no saint
Rain, shine or holiday I just fuckin’ show up
EVERY DAMN DAY!
EVERY GODDAMN DAY!

EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY! (DAY DAY DAY)
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY! (DAY DAY DAY)

When do you answer the call? EVERY DAMN DAY!
When do you give your all? EVERY DAMN DAY!
How often do you refuse to break? EVERY DAMN DAY!
How often for fuck’s sake? EVERY DAMN DAY!

No excuses, no complaints
I ain't looking to be no saint
Rain or shine or holiday
EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!!

Every Damn Day

LYRICS
I was static on the radio, hair turning gray
Same old songs playing every damn day
Then you walked in laughing, lil’ bit o’ devil in your smile
Haven't felt this reckless in a good long while

Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle, girl of gasoline and flame
Fuelin’ my old heart, making it run
Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle, this man's been born again ‘cause,
Lady, you make me feel like I'm turnin’ twenty-one

I'd forgotten colors, everythin’ black ‘n’ white
You see sunsets burning in the dead of night
Dancing in the kitchen, radio turned loud
You grab me by the collar, lift me off the ground

Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle, girl of gasoline and flame
Fuelin’ my old heart, making it run
Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle, this man's been born again ‘cause,
Lady, you make me feel like I'm turnin’ twenty-one

You don't know what you're doing
Girl, you're out of control
But you got me moving
Setting fire to this ol’ soul

Used to count the hours, now I'm counting stars
You turned flat-line thinking back to bad-ass guitars
Maybe I'm a fool, maybe that's alright
You got me feeling young again come Saturday night

Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle, girl of gasoline and flame
Fuelin’ my old heart, making it run
Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle, this man's been born again ‘cause,
Lady, you make me feel like I'm turnin’ twenty-one
Yeah, you make me feel like we've just begun

Joelle, Jo, Jo-elle (Joelle, Joelle) Joelle, Jo, Jo, Jo-elle

Joelle Joelle

LYRICS

(Her) He brought dinner from that place I mentioned one time
(Him) You keep glancin’ at the door, planning your escape
(Her) Hasn't checked his phone yet, that’s a good sign
(Him) I get it—winter's too long to spend with a mistake
(Both) Snow’s not stopping, so I guess we see where this goes

(Him) Am I gonna be your snow man?
(Her) Is he gonna be my snow man?
(Both) Three months 'til spring
(Both) To figure out if this is anything
(Both) Or just two people staying warm

(Her) He laughs at my jokes as if they’r funny
(Him) You’re smarter than you like to pretend
(Her) Will he still want me when the weather's sunny?
(Him) Is this real or am I just a seasonal trend?
(Both) Guess after the new year we'll know the truth

(Him) Am I gonna be your snow man?
(Her) Is he gonna be my snow man?
(Both) Three months 'til spring
(Both) To figure out if this is anything
(Both) Or just two people staying warm

(Her) What happens when it thaws?
(Him) We'll figure it out then
(Her) That's not an answer
(Him) C’mere, I’ll warm you up

(Him) Am I gonna be your snow man?
(Her) Is he gonna be my snow man?
(Both) Three months 'til spring
(Both) To figure out if this is anything
(Her) The bed's so warm
(Him) So stay tonight, what’s the harm

(Him) Baby…
(Her) Don’t say it…
(Him) Baby…
(Both) …it’s cold outside…

Snow Man

LYRICS
House is in order, tree trimmed just right
Family fed, everything perfect tonight
But something’s wrong with this comfortable scene 
Like we missed something in between

The snow keeps falling…
…on cold strangers we’ll never know
But we've got heat, we've got room

When you've got warmth to spare
Don't keep it to yourself in there
Open up the door and share
A little light, a little care
Peace on earth needs more than prayer
When you've got warmth to spare

Used to think the season was just a family thing
Me and mine cozy, but outside there’s suffering
Generosity's not something you can own
Sharing’s what turns your house into a home

This abundance that we got
Wasn't meant for just so few
So I'm setting one more chair

When you've got warmth to spare
Don't keep it to yourself in there
Open up the door and share
A little light, a little care
Peace on earth needs more than prayer
When you've got warmth to spare

Small gestures can change the world
One person, one moment, make someone feel heard
Small kindness echoes louder than you know
Path to a better life like footprints in the snow

When you've got warmth to spare
Pass it on like you don't care
If it comes back anywhere
Just keep giving while you're here
Peace on earth's not just a dream we share
It's every time we show we care
You know you've got warmth to spare

Open up your door tonight
Be someone's firelight
We've all got warmth to spare

Three Rivers Christmas

Warmth to Spare

Warmth To Spare

LYRICS
Finished all my shopping in early November
All online, nothing left to remember
Cards are in the mail, cookies in the tin
Ahead of the game, let the fun begin
Now the only thing left to do
Is enjoy the season with you

I know it’s not about the race, but I
Can’t way to see the look on your face
Hot cocoa, soft snow, and firelight
Yup, everything's already just right 
Now all I need to do is
Spend my Christmas with you

Got the tree up, house looking merry
Day after we ate all that turkey and cranberry
Candy cane lane leading to a welcome mat
Lights on the roof not long after that
Now the the only thing left to do
Is spend the season with you

I know it’s not about the race, but I
Can’t way to see the look on your face
Hot cocoa, soft snow, and firelight
Yup, everything's already just right 
Now all I need to do is
Spend my Christmas with you

Nothing left to do
Best present is time with you
Christmas with you
With you

Nothing Left To Do

LYRICS

You've been staring at the ceiling since last September
As if those water stains were constellations
Surviving on a past both of us can barely remember
Folding that prescription, why the hesitation
Your sister calls, you let it ring right through
Text back you're fine but we all know that ain’t true

You hold the key, darling, you’re the key
To that locked door you've been dwellin on
Turn it right, turn it left, or hand it to me
But halfway haunted ain't where we belong
You hold the key, my key
You've always held the key

Tried giving you space to find a reason
Tried filling the silence, tried sharing the sorrow
My love alone can't pull you through this season
You gotta fight for your own tomorrow
So make the call, please, baby,  or cut me loose
This in-between’s killing us both, you gotta choose

You hold the key, darling, you hold the key
To every locked door you're waitin on
Turn it right, turn it left, or hand it to me
You gotta give me a sign I still belong
You hold the key, my key 
Do the work or set me free

I'm not the warden here
I'm not the one who locked you in
This house can hold our love
Or one of us can pack and leave
Either way, you've got to choose

That door's never been as closed as you believe
You've always held the key,
Turn the key, turn the key
Please, baby, give us a reason to be
