Always Something
I’ve been out to Hollywood, I’ve been to Nashville too
I lived here in Ky where the grass is growing blue,
Moved to Colorado, climbed the Rocky Mt. high,
Now I’ll probably stay in Louisville until the day I die,
but it don’t matter were you go don’t matter who you know, cause it’s always something…man.

Well it starts when you’re a baby, and you leave your Mamma’s breast
You try something a thousand times, but never pass the test
As soon as you get one thing right, you get another wrong
And they’ll say that they knew you, couldn’t do it all along.
But it don’t matter where you go, don’t matter who you know, cause it’s always something, yeah.

You can read it in the paper, you can see it on the news
They’ll take away your choices then, they’ll say you’re free to chose
Give you everything you want, but nothing that you’ll need
You’re blinded by your ignorance, they’re blinded by their greed,
And it don’t matter were you go, don’t matter who you know, cause it’s always something.

Well I started at the bottom, and I climbed up towards the top
It’s either never gonna happen or, it’s never gonna stop,
There's no such thing as compromise, there is no in between,
And it’ll be too late before you find out what I mean,
And it don’t matter where you go, don’t matter who you know,
It don’t matter where you go, don’t matter who you know,
No it don’t matter where you go, don’t matter who you know,
Cause it’s always something, man.
