[ "Arkansas" plays ] Took a 911 'bout 107 down a back road Where the white river runs And the southern sun makes the kudzu grow And what I found in the Ozark Mountains I ain't ever seen It sure does feel like you're sittin' on Top of the world to me Gotta get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Havin' so much fun That it's probably a little bit against the law All the boys and the girls down there Sure do know how to have a ball If you wanna get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Well, we burned through the one-light towns Like a scalded dog When we lit out of Fayetteville They were callin' the hogs We made a pit stop in Little Rock for some barbecue And when we hit West Memphis There were blue lights in our rear view Gotta get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Havin' so much fun That it's probably a little bit against the law All the boys and the girls down there Sure do know how to have a ball If you wanna get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Gotta get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Havin' so much fun That it's probably a little bit against the law All the boys and the girls down there Sure do know how to have a ball If you wanna get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Gotta get down, gotta get down to Arkansas Havin' so much fun That it's probably a little bit against the law All the boys and the girls down there Sure do know how to have a ball If you wanna get down, gotta get down to Arkansas [ Cheers and applause ] [ "Cold" plays ] Girl, the way you broke my heart It shattered like a rock through a window I thought we had it so good Never really saw this comin' Oh, why you got to be so cold?

Why you got to go and cut me like a knife And put our love on ice?

Oh, girl, you know you left this hole Right here in the middle of my soul Oh, why you got to be so cold?

What am I supposed to say If anybody asks me about you?

I guess I'll tell 'em I'm without you Ohhh, how am I supposed to live When I built my life around you?

Try to put yourself in my shoes Oh, why you got to be so cold?

Why you got to go and cut me like a knife And put our love on ice?

Oh, girl, you know you left this hole Right here in the middle of my soul Oh, why you got to be so cold?

I can only feel my love hangin' on I don't feel like it's over I'm still on fire Why you gotta be so?

Oh, why you got to be so cold?

Why you got to go and cut me like a knife And put our love on ice?

[ "Mountains of My Mind" plays ] There's a destination I've got a ways to go There's a revelation that I might never know Somewhere salvation is waiting down the road I think I'll find a long white line Curse the world and leave it all behind I been trying all this time But still can't climb the mountains of my mind There's a testimony that no one's ever heard There's circumstances that none of us deserve No rhyme or reason waiting 'round the curve Think I'll find a long white line Curse the world and leave it all behind I been trying all this time But still can't climb the mountains of my mind There's an empty table with a well-worn wooden chair Just waiting for me in the middle of nowhere Where no one knows me and no one even cares I think I'll find a long white line Curse the world and leave it all behind I been trying all this time But still can't climb the mountains of my mind Yes, I been trying all this time And still can't climb the mountains of my mind Don't worry, I'll be fine But I still can't climb the mountains of my mind [ Cheers and applause ] Thank y'all.

[ Cheers and applause ] [ "Millionaire" plays ] They say love is more precious than gold Can't be bought and it can't be sold I got love enough to spare That makes me a millionaire I got a woman with eyes that shine Down deep as a diamond mine She's my treasure so very rare She's made me a millionaire When we ride around, ride around this old town In my beat-up car with the windows down People look at her and they look at me And say, "That boy is sure living in luxury" Sweet luxury Because love is more precious than gold It can't be bought, no, and it can't be sold I got love enough to share That makes me a millionaire Yes, it does When the kisses fall from everywhere Life reaches on, millionaire When my pockets are empty and my cupboard is bare I still feel like a millionaire 'Cause love is more precious than gold It can't be bought, no, and it can't be sold I got love enough to spare That makes me a millionaire [ Cheers and applause ] Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause continue ] [ Cheers and applause ] Songs can mean different things to you over time.

Like -- Like you can know a song for 20 years and then you hear it that [Chuckles] the 21st year and all of a sudden, wherever you're at in your life or whatever's going on in those 20 years kind of converges into that song and you're like, "Oh, this song means something very different to me now," and you understand the song in a different way.

You can know your song your whole life and it continues to evolve over time for you.

It's all in service of the song.

I mean, if you're playing the guitar part.

you're just trying to serve the song.

If you're playing it for people, you're trying to serve the song so the people can connect with the song, find themselves in the song.

When you're writing a song, you're trying to write a song that does all those things.

The music finds its way around the songs to lift the songs up and make them become something that people can feel, so I always feel like it's all part of the same wheel, really, you know?
