It Keeps On Workin’
On Feb. 21, Lewis released a track titled, “It Keeps On Workin’.” With a grungy guitar intro, Lewis leads into the first verse.
“They used to sing about pick up trucks on my radio. Those SOBs are in SUVs that ain’t never left the road but it keeps on workin’. Lord, Lord, Lord, it keeps on workin’.”
Lewis begins to tell the story of the world he grew up in versus the way it is now – especially with country music. As he moves into the second verse, he points out just how he feels toward modern country.

“There ain’t no country music, down on Music Row these days. Used to feel all down back home, now it’s watered down L.A., but it keeps on workin’. Lord, Lord, Lord, it keeps on workin’.”
He cites his inspirations by bringing some country legends into the mix. Personally tributing Waylon Jennings, Keith Whitley, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Lefty Frizzell who “never just sang a song.”
