Highway man - Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson

More Than Friends (feat. Lainey Wilson)

Verse 1
I’m rollin’ the high road, sunset on my hood
A trail I’ve walked before, where the pines still stood
This time I bring some friends, old stories on our tongues
We laugh about the bruises, the nights that made us young

Pre-Chorus
I show ’em what I learned there, how the climb can make you bend
Tell ’em how the hard roads teach you how to stand again

Chorus
Here we stand on top of the world
Lookin’ down on the lands of vintage
Here we stand on top of the world
Lookin’ down on the lands of vintage
We’re all a little dizzy from the distance
Don’t take a step too far toward the depths

Verse 2
We built our names in timber, carved the date into the stone
Made a honest kind of memory that we’d take back home
The way down felt lighter, let the pickup find its pace
Release the brakes, let gravity do the saving grace

Pre-Chorus
From the ridge we rolled through meadows where the summer drinks run cold
Temptation wore a welcome sign, and for a while we let it hold

Chorus
Here we stand on top of the world
Lookin’ down on the lands of vintage
Here we stand on top of the world
Lookin’ down on the lands of vintage
We’re all a little weary from the distance
Don’t take a step too far toward the depths

Bridge
Suddenly heaven and hell feel just a county line away
A soft voice or a hard one — either one can make you sway
You can’t fill the blanks alone, not with pride and not with stealth
Lay your weight on someone else, and you might find yourself

Break / Short Solo
(Quiet: whisper) Don’t look down — don’t fall down in the depths

Chorus — Final
Here we stand on top of the world
Lookin’ down on the lands of vintage
Here we stand on top of the world
Lookin’ down on the lands of vintage
Hearts heavy from the miles and distance
So don’t take a step too far toward the depths

Outro
(Soft, fading) Lands of vintage — look how far we came.

Lands of Vintage

Mud on my Sunday Shoes by Tony Gibbs
All rights reserved © ℗ 2025 Tony Gibbs

I woke up late to a church bell cry,
Coffee's too weak and hangover lies.
Suit still hangin’ by a nail in the shed,
Lord knows I shoulda prayed instead.

Preacher on the radio talkin’ ‘bout grace,
I’m washin’ last night off my face.
Got one clean sock, one gone bad,
And a guilty smile I ain’t never had.

Mama says, “Son, you can’t ride both sides”
But the river don’t care how a man decides...

Got mud on my Sunday shoes,
Still smell like Friday night blues.
Tryin’ to walk straight, slippin’ sideways,
Lord knows I’m tryin’, but the swamp don’t play.
Yeah, I got mud on my Sunday shoes.

Passed old Leroy by the bait shop door,
He said, “Boy, you ain’t foolin’ the Lord”.
Said, “I ain’t tryin’—just makin’ my way,
Between yes sir, no ma’am, and yesterday”

Choir hum floatin’ through an open window,
While the jukebox down the road says - “Hello”.
Heaven callin’ me in a soft-talk tone,
But sin's got a voice that sounds like home.

Every saint's got a shadow trail,
Every sinner's got a story to tell.

Got mud on my Sunday shoes,
Still smell like Friday night blues.
Tryin’ to walk straight, slippin’ sideways,
Lord knows I’m tryin’, but the swamp don’t play.
Yeah, I got mud on my Sunday shoes.

Ain’t sayin’ I’m lost…
Just sayin’ the road curves ‘round here...

Mud on my Sunday shoes,
Grace in the way I move.
If mercy’s real, it’ll find me soon,
‘Til then I’m hummin’ this crooked tune.

Got mud on my Sunday shoes,
But I’m still showin’ up, Lord, truth is truth.
I ain’t clean though, I ain’t through.
Just a man in the mire tryin’ to do what he do,
Yeah, mud on my Sunday shoes.

Church bell fades and the river sighs,
I’ll get there… maybe by and by...
