Verse———
Looking down on the Rocky Mountains
on a jet plane flying over
peering out the window clouds pass me by
Well I must have been crazy,
to love a wild fire.
A wildfire explodes then it’s gone.
Chorus 1  ———
And a change in the weather,
the wind changes direction.
Just a signal that the fires gone cold.
the times we spent in love
are the times that last FOREVER.
Sure gonna miss them when they’re gone.
But they’ll keep me warm
Yes they keep me warm
Ohh they Keep Me Warm

Wishing you were here with me
drinking my bourbon whiskey,
just one kiss of your lips would light up the sky
Streets of Philadelphia
Golden Sun of California
freedom sings her song, the greatest gift of all.
Chorus 2 ———
Well Ive been around the world
this old world a few times
One thing I’ve learned I will explain
the times we spent in love
are the times that last FOREVER.
Sure gonna miss them when they’re gone.
But they’ll keep me warm
Yes they keep me warm
Ohh they Keep Me Warm
ALL THE TIME

Ain’t no right ain’t no wrong
when you sit and watch a new day dawn
Ain’t no wrong ain’t no right

Walked myself to the edge of town,

Yes and to keep myself a little company,
Well I gotta little hipper from the whiskey family

Verse———
Just cut the cable and the TV screen
just a rabid dog barking back at me.
So many voices chiming through my head
cant put a face to all the words just said.

Lyrics

= Verse 1-4
Take to the street to play music
got my amplify
open guitar case
All of the hookers and hustlers

where they congregate
Pro-stit-tutions illegal
but ya’d never know
by the look of this place
Mind you I’ve got no problem
cause I tell you LOVE
is a terrible thing to waste
= Chorus 1
Ask me where Im goin’
Im a going way down to the dirty side of town
Ask me what I’ll be up to
I say Im a gonna spread a little love around
= Verse 5-8
Playing myself some guitar 
a big old smile
right across my face
I’ve been out here for 3 hours
I think its time
to smoke a little jay
Inspiration she finds me
on crowded sidewalks
just about any place
When Im with her I hold her so closely
cause I tell you LOVE
is a terrible thing to waste
= Chorus 1
Ask me where Im goin’
Im a going way down to the dirty side of town
Ask me what I’ll be up to
I say Im a gonna spread a little love around
