"Rock Hearts Will Break Believe It My Dear, And So Will Your's In Two I Fear, And When It Does Don't Run To Me, 'Cause It Will Be Too Late You See." They just don't write songs like that anymore! "Widow Maker" is a sad song about a truck driver, Billy Mack, and that this is his last trip. He will never be coming home to his wife Wanda Ann. There is an accident, and the trucker's code says "One Life For Every Ten" so to save the lives of several other people Billy swerves truck off the side of the road ending his life. "I Like To Hear 'Em Preach" is a good old gospel bluegrass tune. "Hold Whatcha Got" has a just awesome mandolin part that begins the song. "Tennessee" is a song that Jimmy Martin wrote in the style of one of his idols, Roy Acuff And His Smoky Moutain Boys. "Sunny Side Of The Mountain" is Jimmy Martin's Theme song. "Milwaukee Here I Come" was a hit for George Jones in 1968. Jimmy being a big fan of "The Possum" released this song in a salute to him. Song List:
