| Lyrics: | (Clint Black)
Well I got on in Bristol, by the old Virgina line
With a suitcase full of
dreams,
And a brand new spendin' dime
(Pam Tillis)
I had a full bouquet of music,
wrapped in pretty words
Singin' songs sent down from heaven,
On the wings of a speckled
bird
Wings of a speckled bird
(Randy Travis)
I heard a guitar and a fiddle, banjo
and mandolin
An old man opened up the door and told me "come on in"
(Marty Stuart)
He took my ticket, then he told me,
Bring what it is you do
'Cause that's how you'll
be remembered
When you're travelin' days are through
When you're travelin' days are
through
(All)
They came from the hills and mountains,
The valleys and the
plains
Some were kind and gentle,
And some too wild to tame
(Emmylou Harris)
A string of fearless hearts, on an endless ball of twine
It's the same old train, it's just
a different time
Just a different time
(Merle Haggard)
We sung songs in war, we
sung songs in peace
We traveled in abundance and we traveled on relief
(Travis Tritt)
From the outer gates of heaven, to hell fire's burnin' door
It don't matter where you take
it,
'Cause it's been there before
It's been there before
(All)
They came from
the hills and mountains,
The valleys and the plains
Some were kind and gentle,
And
some too wild to tame
(Merle Haggard)
A string of fearless hearts, on an endless ball
of twine
(All)
It's the same old train, it's just a different time
Just a
different time
(Ricky SkaggsPatty Loveless)
Now like a precious treasure, that's
immeasurable in w |
