WE KEEP IT
(Gwen Holt, April 11 Music, ASCAP & Robert Leath, Load the Wagon, SESAC)

Dryin’ out in the desert -- drivin’ down dusty roads
We spent the night by the fire -- talkin’ ‘bout life and death and where our souls
Go – where do they go (STOP)

CHORUS 1:

Oh my friend, i gave my word – i’d fly like a byrd
No matter where you are – i’d take you back to the sand and stars
To set your soul free – by the joshua tree
Oh after all we’ve been through – here’s what we do – with a promise
We keep it – we keep it – we keep it – we keep it

VERSE 2:
Ashes and embers rising – like a UFO rodeo
Swore to each other – This is where we’ll share our very last smoke
Show One last rock n roll -- show (STOP)

CHORUS 2:

Oh my friend, i kept my word – i flew like a byrd
And no one could stop that car – i took you back to the sand and stars
And set your soul free – by the joshua tree – yes my friend
I stole a hearse – and drove to the ends of the earth

Noone could stop that car – that took you back to the sand and stars
And set your soul free – you woulda done that for me
Oh after all we’ve been through – here’s what we do – with a promise
We keep it – we keep it – hey ee ya ya ya

We keep it – hoo oo – we keep it – ya ya ya
We keep it – we keep it – we keep it – we keep it – we keep it – we keep it
Oh whoa whoa ya i said ooo ooo ooo ooo (pause) we keeeeeeep it
