  1. We get to break out of prison

    Make love to our best friends wife

    Have a beer for breakfast in Boston

    Drink rum in Jamaica that night

    We get to tell all our secrets

    In a code no one understands

    We get to shoot all the bad guys

    But never get blood on our hands

    We're heroes, we're schemers,

    We're drunks and we're dreamers

    We're lovers and sometimes we're fighters

    We're students, we're teachers

    We're the devil, we're preachers

    We're true love but mostly one nighter
    We're the songwriters

    *************
    Half the world thinks we're crazy

    The other half wants to be us

    And there're jealous because we get to hang out

    In the back of some big stars tour bus

    We're old boots and tee shirts and blue jeans

    We're cables and strings and E Chords

    We only dress up in November

    When they hand out some writers awards

    We're hero's, we're schemers,

    We're drunks and we're dreamers

    We're lovers and sometimes we're fighters

    We're the truths, we're the lies

    We're stupid, we're wise

    We're true love but mostly one nighter

    We're the songwriters

    **************

    We ride bridges we cross em and burn em

    Teach lessons but don't bother to learn em

    Our mamas don't know what we're doing

    Why we stay out all night long

    I told mine I was a drug dealer

    She said thank god you ain't writing songs

    We're heroes, we're schemers,

    We're drunks and we're dreamers

    We're lovers and sometimes we're fighters

    We're the truths, we're the lies

    We're stupid, we're wise

    We're true love but mostly one nighter

    We're the songwriters

    We're the songwriters…..

  2. Lovely album! Although the songs are all new, a good half of them remind me
    of the best period in the whole history of country music: the outlaw country of
    the late sixties and all through the seventies. That's the country I by far love best!
