A Country
Cafe
I’m driving
down from Asheville town on 25. I have no doubt, I have no fear and I feel
alive. The night is young, and the moon
is high, the mountains speak and the doves, they cry. I have my dreams and the stars are blazing in
the sky.
I’m headed
for a country café. I’ll play my song, for the joy of it, not pay. ‘Cause the
people here are just pickers, too, they take old songs and make them new. Now I
don’t care what the know-it-alls say. I’m
gonna share my dreams at the Ugly Mug Café, I’m proud to play for pickers at a
country café, a country cafe
