Lyrics

Willie's riding shotgun, Waylon's sleepin' in the back
 Billy Graham is preaching about Jesus Christ with the Man in Black
 Lennon's talking politics, Dylan's mumblin' on his phone
 Ol' Kristofferson says turn it up Merle that's a Tom Petty song
 Yeah
 ♪
 No, Elvis ain't dead, he just got tired of the velvet and the press
 He's hangin' out with Emmylou
 And Gram Parsons on a boat out in Key West
 And speaking of Memphis, the best blues band in town
 Plays every Tuesday night
 Stevie Ray and Jimmy tune it up and burn it down
 Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind
 Singing those old songs just like they did back then
 Some are here and some are gone
 Old habits die hard and legends live on and on
 Somebody said they saw Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain
 At a little dive thirty miles outside the east side of LA
 Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper
 Are all hangin' out at Night Hawks drinking whiskey with Eddie Hopper
 Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind
 Singing those old songs just like they did back then
 Some are here and some are gone
 Old habits die hard and legends live on and on and on
 Legends live on
 
 I had a dream one night, one day I was at this South Texas cafe
 Playing 42 with Townes Van Zandt and Ernest Hemmingway
 We had Hank on the jukebox, burning that pipe tobacco slow
 My ol' man chimed in and said
 "Kids these days need to dig deeper to find their soul"
 Can I get an amen?
 Dig deeper to find your soul
 Better pick up that shovel and get to work
 Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind
 Singing those old songs just like they did back then
 Some are here
 Some are gone
 Old habits die hard and legends live on and on
 Just like my heroes I'm as free as the wind
 Singing those old songs just like they did back then
 Some are here and some are gone
 Old habits die hard
 Legends live on and on and on
 Legends live on
 Legends live on
 Legends live on and on and on
 Legends live on
 Legends live on
 Legends live on and on and on
 And on
 And on
 And on
