Behind the Song

Some you know some you don't Riders of the muddy gold Few good folk told the stories rode The music falling in your ears hits Behind the song nobody knows Behind the song nobody knows The chords upon your heart like you've been there from the start of the blood sweat and the years Hero's of the open pains riding tall the lower grange where it was not for fame Behind the song nobody knows Behind the song nobody knows They were already somebody it got them through rain Though he ran it down and branded a name So you could feel the stories of the likes the same to live again you are somebody you're not alone in the rain Behind the song nobody knows Behind the song nobody knows * * John beam - for Steve Earle the song/writer
