Sittin' on a bar stool one hot August night
Just sippin' on a brew not looking for a fight
When a man came up behind me
and said boy you should know
I'm a man from round these parts
my name is Curtis Lowe
Well he sat down beside me
and he turned his hat around
Said I've lived many years on this side of town
He said boy there's one thing that you should know
Always play your heart out when you're puttin' on a show
Chorus
I said Curtis play me somethin and tell me how to live
Show me how to make it and teach me how to give
Van Zant Said it best when he played it soft and slow
Yeah I'm the man on the stage
when I played for Curtis Lowe
Well we sat there a talkin' about life on the road
He said its a hard one that most never know
Said boy there's one this before you go
Always play your heart out when you're puttin on a show
Chorus
Chorus
