You Know The Rest Lyrics - Live In Nashville 1995 - Steve Earle

Moses went up to the mountain 

To see what he could see 

Well he come down talking 'bout a burning bush 

Says 'This is how it's gonna be' 

He's scared to death 

You know the rest 

Columbus went down to the ocean 

In 1492 

He said 'Boys, I'm looking for India 

But America will do' 

Sailed to the west 

You know the rest

Davey Crockett went out to Texas 

To fight at the Alamo 

Old Will Travis never told him 

Texas is in Mexico 

It's a bloody mess 

You know the rest 

Robert Johnson went to the crossroads 

A guitar in his hands 

Well, the devil had him a guitar, too 

He says 'This is what you need man, 

You can be the best' 

You know the rest 

Photos 

Well this song ain't got no reason 

Hell this song barely rhymes 

Well it come to me when I was asleep 

And it wakes me up sometimes 

I can't get no rest 

You know the rest
