Lyrics van JR & The Lazy Batteries
'Til the Money Runs Out
Splashin' Baghdad on the Hudson in Panther Martin's eyes
He's high and outside wearin' candy apple red
Scarlet gave him twenty seven stitches in his head
With a pint of green Chartreuse, ain't nothin' seems right
You buy the Sunday paper on a Saturday night
Can't you hear the thunder? Someone stole my watch
I sold a quart of blood and bought a half a pint of scotch
Someone tell those Chinamen on Telegraph Canyon Road
When you're on the bill with the spoon, there ain't no time to unload
So bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Droopy stranger, lonely dreamer, toy puppy and the Prado
We're laughin' as they piled into Olmos' El Dorado
Jesus whispered, "Eni meany meany miney moe"
They're too proud to duck their heads that's why they bring it down so low
So bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Pointed man smack dab in the middle of July
Swingin' from the rafters in his brand new tie
He said, "I can't go back to that hotel room, all they do is shout
But listen baby, I'll stay wichew 'til the money runs out"
So bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye, bye bye, bye
Bye, bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Check this strange beverage fall out from the sky
Splashin' Baghdad on the Hudson in Panther Martin's eyes
He's high and outside wearin' candy apple red
Scarlet gave him twenty seven stitches in his head
With a pint of green Chartreuse, ain't nothin' seems right
You buy the Sunday paper on a Saturday night
Bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye
Oh, bye bye baby, bye bye, baby, baby, bye bye

(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song
And the feeling just got right for a brand new love song
Somebody done somebody wrong song
Hey, won't you play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
So play, play for me a sad melody
So sad that it makes everybody cry
A real hurtin' song about a love that's gone wrong
'Cause I don't wanna cry all alone
Hey, won't you play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
So play, play for me a sad melody
So sad that it makes everybody cry
A real hurtin' song about a love that's gone wrong
'Cause I don't wanna cry all alone
Hey, won't you play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
Won't you play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby, my baby

(i Could Only) Whisper Your Name
Somebody was spreading rumors
'bout better days a comin
Why was i hummin
As if i knew
One and the same
But i just whispered your name
Somebody was sayin something
'bout there being an end to tyranny
But when they asked me
What would i do...
If that day came
I only whispered your name
Everyone got their own opinion
And protects their own dominion
No doubt for them it's true
But i tell them what i really believe
My only worry is protecting you
No one should ever be lonely
We'd all find somebody to care
Ask me if i dare
To answer who...
Could carry that flame
I'd just whisper your name

(I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle
I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow
I got in trouble had to roam left my gal and left my home
I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow
Just a kid actin' smart I went and broke my darling's heart
I guess I was too young to know
They took me off to Georgia Main they locked me to a ball and chain
I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow
All I do is sit and cry when the evening train goes by
I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow
All I do is bear the shame I'm a number not a name
I heard that lone vow vow some whistle blow
I'll be locked here in this cell till my body's just a shell
And my hair turns whiter than snow, oh Lord
I'll never see that gal of mine I'm in Georgia doing time
I heard that llone vow vow some whistle blow
I'll never see that gal of mine

(I've Got My) Future on Ice
And enough memories for one man's life
(That is true)
The one I love, she ain't comin' back ever
So it looks like I've got my future on ice
I got bottles and cans
That just left my hand
And a chill to just the right Fahrenheit
O love let me down
Now a truer friend I've found
Why I've got my future on ice
There was a time, she was my one and only
Until someone else caught her eye
Then for awhile, can you believe I was acting so lonely
Now I've got my future on ice
I got bottles and cans
That just left my hands
And a chill to just the right Fahrenheit
Yes love let me down
Now a truer friend I found
Now I've got my future on ice
O love let me down
Now a real true friend I found
Why I got my future on ice

(it Must've Been Ol') Santa Claus
I think i saw ol' santa through my window christmas eve
My eyes were really droopy but i really do believe
It must've been ol' santa 'cause i saw his big red hat
And i know my mom and dad can't fly like that
And then i heard some footsteps in the hall outside my door
The same ol' christmas trick my dad had played since i was four
He stands outside my bedroom yelling "ho! ho! ho!" because
He knows i don't believe in santa claus
I think my daddy sees me
Peeking from my door
But he pretends he's santa anyway
Every year he tries to fool me
But i'm a big boy now i don't believe in santa or his sleigh...
No way!
So i went back to bed and i curled up nice and tight
I stared out my window and looked into the night
And then, all of a sudden, through my window i could see
Santa claus was flying by and smiling at me
Chorus:
Santa claus, santa claus
It must've been ol' santa claus
Santa claus, santa claus
Happy "ho! ho! ho!" to you
Then i heard ol' rudolph tellin' me to come outside
He told me that ol' santa wanted me to take a ride
I climbed out of my window and i jumped onto his sleigh
Then ol' santa took me up up and away
We flew high above the rooftops of my sleepy town below
I saw my big red school house and the town square picture show
It was really past my bedtime and so ol' santa said
"little boys like you should be in bed"
So i hollered "ho! ho! ho!"
And i put on santa's hat
Then he let me hold the reins awhile
We pulled up to my window
And i jumped back in my room
And i waved goodbye to santa with a smile
When i woke up christmas morning it was clear and bright
My parents said my window had blown open in the night
I smiled as i told them that it must've been the cat
And they asked me where i got my big red hat
Chorus

5:30
So far, so sad
There's a thorn, a Cupid's eye
No sides in land side
That's my love, all falls down
That's why I won't fold
Under fire, under ground
That's why love don't wash
Been what's past, you see
I saw the second hand, thanks dad
Am I free? And was that me?
Why is it always 5:30?
That's why love, all falls down
That's why I don't fold
Love start fire, rolling under ground
That's why love won't wash down
It was never really bad
I was never that alone
So it wound up where it lead
So it lays beside road
I had barely deeply breathe
Was not the man to feel
So it turned as this as string
And it catches in the wheel
Wouldn't claim it felt unfair
An asylum in my house
I could not escape his mouth
I could not escape his
For the moment I believe
As my hands adjust your hair
And let my cover blow
I was never real in there
It was just a little scared
I was just a little scared
You were only never here
Just a little bit

A Banca
Saúde tem demais, tem pra dar e vender
Bom Rap me diverte faz eu viajar no mundo
Deus há de fazer aqui no Broklin um escudo
Com o tempo, eu vi onde estou
Quem vacilou o esqueleto arrastou
Os homem de preto aciona o dedo plick pléu
Brooklin, Canaã onde eu nasci tá cruel
Pra frente aqui vou eu e quem não se envolveu
Meu eu é partidário, vacilou quem prometeu
Ambiente na quebrada é quente meu
Entardeceu vacilou na festa é problema teu
O crime não é crime eu faço parte também
É de lei sim respeito aqui
Também sei que temos que se preservar
Manter a fé em Deus, não pare
Pode crer Charlie Brown, Champignon essa é a família
Sabotage Brookiln Sul faz a rima
Salve a favela! Tô aqui Sabotage
Tem certos lugares ligeiro e criminalidade
...
Ratatá é bicho solto,
Ficar ligeiro já faz parte do jogo
Todo cuidado é pouco
Ratatá é bicho solto
Família RZO Charlie Brown
Sandrão aqui convoca os louco
Entende os outros. Conhece o jogo, confiscou
Aqui só ganha quem supera a morte
Ocorre quem se envolve e quem é forte
Atitude trás a sorte
Só da mole aqueles loki
Quem se envolve não corre
das deligências que ocorrem na periferia
Os piores dias da América Latina
Tem que conviver numa de desbaratina
Rap protetores da periferia
Liga, fica de esquina, que ve os discrimina,
Vida bandida, quantos manos quantas minas
Pena naquele lá de cima
Aí ladrão essa é a única alternativa?
Só os que servem ao Hip Hop que apoia a greve
Como a peste, a nossa inteligência
Não troca gato por lebre
Microfone cheque click cleck crack
Mate!
Ratatá é bicho solto,
Ficar ligeiro já faz parte do jogo
Todo cuidado é pouco
Ratatá é bicho solto
RZO, os cara, rima rica, rima rara
Os boy fica de cara, e a batida que não para
Toda família, mesma família, os mano aqui
São tudo da minha laia
Meu escritório é na praia
Você se lembra... eles querem te levar
Maloqueiro, carro gringo, vão parar pra averiguar
Chego, chego devagar
Chego bem humilde
Sei como chegar
Tem pra mandar trazer, tem
Tem pra mandar buscar, vai
Tem pra mostrar o poder, tem
Tem pra te alucinar
Eu não fico dividido
Sei porque tomo o partido
Sistema falido, já aconteceu comigo
Zum zum zum,
Cocaína mata um
Mata vários escraviza o mais fraco
Eu já fui um otário sim
Hoje estou bem
Já larguei, me curei
Foi bem melhor pra mim
Mas conheci vários manos que foram até o fim
Uma tentação a cada esquina
O consumo do álcool
Te deixa cada vez mais louco, sim
Ratatá é bicho solto, pow
Ratatá é bicho solto
Ratatá é bicho solto,
Ficar ligeiro já faz parte do jogo
Todo cuidado é pouco
Ratatá é bicho solto
Mas pode crer Chorão,
Em Pirituba é quase igual
Punk, Funk, pagodeiro, curte RZO e Charlie Brown
Um som bem legal
Racionais melhor ainda
Sem falar da paz
Deus ilumine o grafite
Na favela da mandioca
Até apetite vem do pico
Nosso menino só na humilde
Que que tem, pula estação
Vai de trem vem com nós
Firme como nossa voz
Sandrão canta, também cola na banca
Quem não é se espanta
Descrimina a pampa
Santa ignorância
Tem que ser igual HC
E a banca não manca aumenta confiança
Esperança é o que não morre
Não desanda e faz um corre no skate
Faz até enfeite
O alemão todo dia lá no parque mó viagem
Dou valor a arte
Helião, toda mão lá no parque
No parque vingança em toda parte
Mano Sabotage falou que ia colar aí mais tarde
É pode crer você sabe aquilo
Nosso Rap é compromisso
Eu prefiro ser vacilo na responsa(responsa)
Humilde eu me sinto
Pois assim ninguém me afronta(responsa)
Hélio falou e é verdade
É Negrútil eu sei de tudo cu de burro fode tudo
Num segundo, mas eu juro vou rimar
E vo mostrar que tá no ar, música pra respeitar
Champignon tá envolvido e todo mundo da baixada
Só a rapa, fumaça então que faça
Vamo liberar quem é, entende e compreende
Tem moral sempre a frente
Firmeza total
Não se juga o melhor
Pois Deus é maioral
Quem tá legal
Fumo bomba, curte samba
RZO e Charlie Brown
Ratatá é bicho solto,
Ficar ligeiro já faz parte do jogo
Todo cuidado é pouco
Ratatá é bicho solto,
Ratatá é bicho solto,
Ficar ligeiro já faz parte do jogo
Todo cuidado é pouco
Ratatá é bicho solto.
Favela é favela... isso aqui é uma guerra....

A Blessing And A Curse
Or when the rent is due
Dates and deadlines just float by
But I always remember you
What colombus set out to discover
Isabelle already knew
There'll be horizons and skylines and other lovers
But I always remember you
If I could rearrange history
And give it to you as a gift
There would be one more movement
In beethoven's fifth
Why, oh why, in a land of plenty
Some just have to make due
At the end of a breadline with just a penny
I'll always remember you

YOU ARE THEIR CUSTOMED CHOICE OF A SCREWED GENERATION

A Country Boy Can Survive
People buyin’ up on the surplus things
Afraid of what the New Year will bring
I live back in the woods you see
Y2K don’t mean a thing to me
I’ve got a shotgun, a rifle and a 4-wheel drive
Country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
Ain’t too many things these old boys can’t do
We grow good old tomatoes and our homemade wine
Country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
'Cause ya can’t starve us out and ya can’t make us run
We’ll survive the new millennium
We say grace and we say ma’am
If ya ain’t into that we don’t give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coalmines
And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies
If the bank machines crash we’ll be just fine
'Cause a country boy can survive
Country boy can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
Never called me 'Bocephus' called me 'Hillbilly'
Well he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For 43 dollars my friend lost his life
Now this dude’s gonna get out in a year or two
'Cause the system don’t work for me and you
But a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
'Cause ya can’t starve us out and ya can’t make us run
We’ll survive the new millennium
We say grace and we say ma’am
If ya ain’t into that we don’t give a damn
We’re from North Carolina and south Alabam
And little towns all around this land
If the bank machines crash we’ll be just fine
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Any year, any time

A Countryboy Can Survive
and the Mississippi River she's a going dry.
The interest is up and the stock markets down
and you only get mugged if you go downtown.
I live back in the woods you see,
my woman,and the kids and the dogs and me.
I got a shotgun and a rifle and a four wheel drive
and a countryboy can survive. Country folks can survive.
I can plow a field all day long,
I can catch catfish from dusk til dawn.
Make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
aint to many things these boys can't do.
We grow good old tomatoes and homemade wine
and countryboy can survive, country folk can survive.
Because you can't stomp us out and you can't make us run,
cause we're them ole boys raised on shotguns.
We say grace and we say mam
amd if you aint into that we don't give a damn.
We came from the West Virginia coal mine's
and the Rocky Mountains and the Western skies
and we can skin a buck, we can run a trout line
and a countryboy can survive, country folks can survive.
I had a good friend in New York City
he never called me by my name just hillbilly.
My Grandpa taught me how to live off the land
and his taught him to be a business man
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway Nights
and i would send him some homemade wine
but he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife,
for forty three dollars my friend lost his life.
I'd love to spit some beechnut in that dudes eyes
and shoot him with my ole forty-five
cause a countryboy can survive, country folks can survive.
'Cause you can't stomp us out and you can't make us run,
and we're them ole boys raised on shotgun.
We say grace, we say mam,
if you aint into that we don't give a damn.
We're from North California and South Alabam'
and little towns all around this land.
We can skin a buck, and run a trout line
and a countryboy can survive,
country folks can survive,
countryboy can survive,
country folks can survive.

A Fine Romance
A fine romance, my friend this is
We should be like a
Couple of hot tomatoes
But you're as cold as
Yesterday's mashed potatoes
A fine romance, you won't nestle
A fine romance, you won't wrestle
I might as well play bridge
With my old maid aunt
I haven't got a chance
This is a fine romance
Yes a fine romance, with no kisses
A fine romance, my friend this is
We two should be like clams in a dish of chowder
But we just fizz like parts of seidlitz powder
Yes a fine romance, with no glitches
A fine romance, with no glitches
Just as hard to land as the "Isle de France"
I haven't got a chance
This is a fine romance
A fine romance, my good fellow
You take romance, an' I'll take jello
You're calmer than the seals
In the Arctic Ocean
At least they flap their fins
To express emotion
A fine romance with no quarrels
With no insults and all morals
I've never mussed the crease
In your blue serge pants
I never get the chance
This is a fine romance
Yes, a fine romance, my dear judges
Two old fogies who need crutches
True love should have the thrills that a healthy crime does
Oh we don't have the thrills the march of time has
A fine romance, my good woman
My strong aged in the wood, woman
You never give the orchids I sent a chance
No you like cactus plants
This is a fine romance
A fine romance, my dear duchess
Two old fogies who need crutches
True love should have the thrills that a healthy crime has
You know Louie we don't have half the thrills
That the march of time has
You're telling me
Fine romance, my very good woman
My strong aged in the wood woman
You never give the orchids I sent a glance
No I prefer cactus plants
This is a fine romance

A House of Gold
For wealth and what it will buy
But don't they know on the Judgment Day
All the gold and silver will melt away
I'd rather be in a deep dark grave
And know that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul
What good is gold and silver too
If your heart's not good and true
Sinner hear me when I say
Fall down on your knees and pray
For I'd rather be in a deep dark grave
And know that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul

A Little Less Talk and a Lot More Action
Nothing I could say ever seemed to matter
So I took a little drive just to clear my head
I saw a flashing neon, up ahead, it looked like a place
To find some satisfaction
With a little less talk and a lot more action
I paid the man at the door and pushed my way to the bar
Shouted for a drink over a screaming guitar
A drunk on a stool tried to mess with my head
But I didn't even listen to a word he said
I knew somewhere amid all this distraction
Was a little less talk and a lot more action
A little less talk if you please
A lot more loving is what I need
Let's get on down to the main attraction
With a little less talk and a lot more action
Well she was fighting them off at a corner table
She had a long neck bottle, she was peeling the label
The look on her face, it was perfectly clear
She said, "Somebody please get me out of here"
The look she shot me through the glass refraction
Said a little less talk and a lot more action
A little less talk if you please
A lot more loving is what I need
Let's get on down to the main attraction
With a little less talk and a lot more action

A Moment With Me
Your airy demeanor becomes polite
All the things you adore don't mean all that much anymore
Well there's really no mystery
You just need someone to listen
So come and spend a moment with me
It isn't so easy to walk alone
Especially knowing you're on your own
The secret you've kept so well is much better with someone to tell
We can speak confidentially
I'll tell you what you've been missing
Come and spend a moment with me
You feel your heartache as bad as it's been
It's finally beaten you down
You don't want to partake but you want to win
And there's no other party in town
It's much too early to say goodnight
Just one more moment and you just might
See that a moment with me is more than you thought it could be
We don't have to make history
We can start with some kisses
Come and spend a moment with me

A Night in Tunisia
Lyrics delivered by lyricsfly.com
A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square
There was magic abroad in the air
There were angels dining at the Ritz
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
I may be right, I may be wrong
But I’m perfectly willing to swear
That when you turned and smiled at me
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
The moon that lingered over London town
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
How could he know that we two were so in love?
The whole darn world seemed upside down
The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair
And as we kissed and said goodnight
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
The moon that lingered over London town
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
How could he know, we two were so in love?
The whole darn world seemed upside down
The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair
And as we kissed and said goodnight
A nightingale sang, a nightingale sang
I know 'cause I was there
That night in Berkeley Square

A Rainy Night in Georgia
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
A heavy rain a fallin' seems
I hear your voice a callin' it's all right
On this rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia
I believe it's rainin' all over the world
Neon signs a flashin' taxicabs and buses
Passin' through the night
The distant moanin' of a train
Seems to play a sad refrain onto the night
On this rainy night in Georgia
Such a rainy night in Georgia
I think, it's rainin' all over the world
How many times I have wondered
But it always comes out the same
No matter how I look at it'll think about it
It's just like some of its pleasures
Some of its pain
I find me a place in a boxcar
So I take out my guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest
And then I'm all right
But it's still a rainy night in Georgia
It's a rainy night in Georgia
I believe it must be rainin' all over this world
All over the world rainy night in Georgia

A Spoonful of Sugar
There is an element of fun
You find the fun and snap
The job's a game
In every task you undertake
Becomes a piece of cake
A lark, a spree
It's very clear to see
That a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down
Medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way
A robin feathering his nest
Has very little time to rest
While gathering his
Bits of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit
He has a merry tune to toot
He knows a song
Will move the job along
For a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down
Medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way
The honeybees that brings the nectar
From the flowers to the comb
Never tire ever buzzing to and fro, no
Because they take a little nip
From every flower that they sip
And hence they find
Their task is not a grind
For a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down
Medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar
Helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way
In a most delightful way

A Wink and a Smile
Of just keeping time of hanging around
In sleepy towns forever
Back roads, empty for miles
Well, you can't have a dream
And cut it to fit but when I saw you
I knew we'd go together
Like a wink and a smile
Leave your old Jalopy
By the railroad track
We'll get a hip, double dip
Tip, toppy, two-seat Pontiac
So you can rev her up, don't go slow
It's only green lights and all rights
Let's go together
With a wink and a smile
Give me a wink and a smile
We go together like a wink and a smile
Now my heart is music
Such a simple song
Sing it again, the notes never end
This is where I belong
Just the sound of your voice
The light in your eyes
We're so far away from yesterday
Together with a wink and a smile
We go together like a wink and a smile

A-eee
She's is pretty as she can be and got a beautiful body,
and when she makes love to me I can't help but hollar A-EEE!
They say that I'm a crazy cajun always rantin' and a ravin'.
But they don't know what they're missing if they ain't never had her kissin'.
In the car or in the shower I'm thinkin' of every hour
and sometimes I get this urge to just hollar 'cause I love her.
I jumped up in a bar one night when I was feeling alright.
Let out a great big A-EEE and the sheriff said come with me.
Well he threw me into the jail I guess he didn't like my Louisiana yell,
but a man come and bailed me out and said in his mind there was no doubt.
That I could be a big star probably get myself a brand new car.
I says you mean your going to pay me just to hear me hollar A-eee!
Yes he said thats right son!We're gonna make a million.
So we went to Nashville town.I made a record and it played all around.
From then on they were Number 1,but I wasn't having no fun.
I miss my Cajun Baby and all that good A-eee!
So I went on back to Louisian' to find my girl and have a love again,
'cause after all she's the one you see that made it all happen to me.
She's my soul and inspiration and soon her love I'll be tasting.
Oh she's drivin' me crazy with all of her A-eee!
She's got soft finger tips and a warm red ruby lips.
Well she's 24 in the waste and 36 and 38
and she's as pretty as she can be.She's got a beautiful body
and thats all that matters to me. Me and my baby and A-eee!

Afro Blue
I hear a hand stroke on a drum
Elegant boy, beautiful girl
Dancing for joy elegant whirl
Shades of delight, cocoa hue
Rich as the night afro blue
Two young lovers dance face to face
With undulating grace
They gently sway, then slip away
To some secluded place
Shades of delight, cocoa hue
Rich as the night afro blue
Whispering trees, echo their sighs
Passionate pleas, tender replies
Lovers in flight upward they glide
Burst at the height slowly subside
Shades of delight, cocoa hue
Rich as the night afro blue
And my slumbering fantasy assumes reality
Until it seems it's not a dream for two for you and me
Shades of delight, cocoa hue
Rich as the night afro blue
Oh, shades of delight, cocoa hue
Rich as the night afro blue
Shades of delight afro, afro blue

Ain't Misbehavin'
No one to walk with, but I'm happy on the shelf
Ain't misbehavin', savin' my love for you
Now I know for certain, you're the one I love
I'm through with flirtin', just you I'm dreamin' of
Ain't misbehavin', savin' my love for you
Like Jack Horner in the corner
Don't go no where, why do I care?
Your kisses are worth waiting for
Believe me
I don't stay out late, I don't care to go
I'm home about eight, just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin', savin' my love for you
Like Jack Horner in the corner
Don't go no where, why do I care?
Your kisses are worth waiting for
Believe me
I don't stay out late, I don't care to go
I'm home about eight, just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin', savin' my love for you

Ain't No Sunshine
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And he's always gone too long anytime he goes away
Wonder this time where he's gone
Wonder if he's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime he goes away
And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Hey, I gotta leave the young thing alone
'Cause ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Only darkness when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away, anytime he goes away, anytime he goes away

Ain't That a Shame
When you said goodbye
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame
You broke my heart
When you said we'll part
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame
Farewell, goodbye
Although I'll cry
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame
You made me cry
When you said goodbye
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame
Farewell, goodbye
Although I'll cry
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain

All by Myself
I never needed anyone
And makin' love was just for fun
Those days are gone
Livin' alone
I think of all the friends I've known
But when I dial the telephone
Nobody's home
All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself, anymore
Hard to be sure
Sometimes I feel so insecure
And love, so distant and obscure
Remains the cure
All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself, anymore
All by myself
I don't wanna live
All by myself, anymore
When I was young
I never needed anyone
And makin' love was just for fun
Those days are gone
All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself, anymore
All by myself
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna live by myself
By myself anymore

All for the Love of Sunshine
The flowers are blooming, it's a beautiful day
There's a girl with a heart as big as the sky
She's sunshine and I know why
All for the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine
The Lord smiled down on this life of mine
And sent me the love of sunshine
Though sunshine can always make my days seem bright
Sunshine can warm up a cold, cold night
I know my sunshine was sent from above
An angel that's filled with love
All for the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine
The Lord smiled down on this life of mine
And sent me the love of sunshine
Through winter, the springtime, the summer and fall
The moonlight, the starlight, she outshines them all
In a world filled with fear, with pain and such harm
My sunshine can't be so warm
Now I live, all for the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine
The Lord smiled down on this life of mine
And sent me the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine
The Lord smiled down on this life of mine
And sent me the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine
All for the love of sunshine

All In Alabama
I thought if I'd climb up ole Ajax mountain maybe that would help me get it all off my mind.
I made it up to the top, picked out a clear spot. I thought a whole lot about the rest of my life.
I had no idea then soon it would nearly end up on this mountainside I would nearly die.
and there all in Alabama and there all in dixieland.
God I'm dieing here in Montana please Lord, just want to go back to hold her hand just let me get back to my old homeland.
They said I'd never sing again I learned alot about my friends 'cause when your shot down and out you don't get many calls
but I saw some tears in some eyes and soon my poor old mother would die I nearly lost it all when I lost my Grandpa.
But you could find us all in Alabama yeah we're all down in Dixieland
I didn't die out in Montana No Lord you let me get back to my own homeland and I'm gonna hold on to her hand.
I done a whole searching a whole lot of hurtin' before I finally found my road in life
you got to say things you want to say go on and do things your own way you can climb any old mountain once you make up your mind
and I made mine in Alabama and I found mine down in Dixieland
I didn't die out in Montana no Lord you let me get back to my ole homeland and I'm gonna hold on to her hand.

Lord, its hard to be a bachelor man.
I got girls that can cook, I got girls that can clean,
I got girls that can do anything in between.
I got to get ready, make everything right,
'cause all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight.
Do you want a drink. Hey do you want to party.
Hey honey this is ole Hank. Ready to get the thing started.
We cooked the pig in the ground, got some beer on ice
and all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight.
Now my party pad is out in the woods
its long, long way from here to Hollywood,
but I got some natural queens out on the floor
and ole Miss Mississippi just walked through the door.
Got a little wirlpool just made for ten,
and you can jump out and you can jump in.
You can do anything that you want to do,
but uh uhh, don't you step on my cowboy boots.
Do you want to drink. Hey do you want to party.
Hey this is ole Hank. Ready to get your summer started.
I cooked a pig in the ground, we got some beer on ice

All My Rowdy Friends (Have Settled Down)
Nobody wants to get drunk and get loud.Everybody just wants to go back home.
I myself have seen my wilder days and I have seen my name at the top of the page,
but I need to find a friend just to run around.But no one wants to get high on the town
and all my rowdy friends have settled down.
And I think I know what my father meant when he sang about a lost highway and old George Jones I'm glad to see he's finally getting straight,
and Waylon staying home and loving Jesse more these days,
and nobody wants to get drunk and get loud and all my rowdy friends have settled down.
and the hang overs hurt more then they used to and corn bread and ice tea took the place of pills and ninety-proof,
and it seems like none of us do things quite like we used to do
and nobody wants to get high on the town and all my rowdy friends have settled down.
Yeah I think I know what my father meant when he sang about his lost highway and Johnny Cash don't act like he did back in '68
and Kriss he is a movie star and he's moved off to L.A.
and nobody wants to get drunk and get loud and all my rowdy friends have settled down
yeah me and my rowdy friends have rowdied on down.

All of You
The sweet of you and the pure of you
The eyes, the arms and the mouth of you
The east, west, north and the south of you
I'd love to gain complete control of you
Handle even the heart and soul of you
Love at least a small percent of me do
Because I love all of you
I love the looks of you, the lure of you
The sweet of you and the pure of you
The eyes, arms and the mouth of you

And handle even the heart and soul of you
Love at least a small percent of me do
Because I, I love all of you

All the Things You Are
That makes the lonely winter seem long
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song
You are the angel glow that lights a star
The dearest things I know are what you are
Someday my happy arms will hold you
And someday I'll know that moment divine
When all the things you are, are mine

Gets me excited, makes me feel fine
The touch of your hand, your sweet hello
The fire inside you when you're holding me close
Your love so warm and tender, the thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine, make you mine
If you would leave, I surely would die
When you were ten minutes late, I started to cry
I've got it bad, it's all right
As long as you're here every night
Your love so warm and tender, the thrill is so divine
It is all these things baby, that make you mine
Your love so warm and tender, the thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine

Almost Nearly But Not Quite Plumb
Ain't got no money but I still ain't a bum I'm almost nearly but not quite plumb
A back last summer down by the sea I seen a pretty girl in ---
I snapped my fingers said son of a gun she's almost nearly but not quite plumb
Some people wonder how I live sometimes I pick sometimes I give
People say I'm a bum I'm almost nearly but not quite plumb
I met a pretty girl up in Chicago she said honey baby I love you so
She begged me to stay and not act like a bum
I've been almost nearly but not quite plumb
Friends ask me why I don't take a wife settle down to a married life
They say it's good as most and it's better than some
I say I'm almost nearly but not quite plumb
Some people wonder how I live...
[ guitar ]
Just the other night out in Tucson I had a little date with a great big blonde
I took her home she said didn't we have fun hmm almost nearly but not quite plumb
When it's time for the final date with old Saint Pete's at the pearly gate
He'll say I hope you're ready for your time's come
I'll say I'm almost nearly but not quite plumb
Some people wonder how I live...

Almost Persuaded
Met a girl with a drink in her hand
She had ruby red lips and coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man
Then she came and sat down at my table
And as she placed her soft hand in mine
I found myself wanting to kiss her
For temptation was flowing like wine
And I was almost persuaded
To strip myself of my pride
Almost persuaded
To push my conscience aside
Then we danced and she whispered, "I need you
Take me away from here and be my man"
Then I looked in her eyes and I saw it
The reflection of my wedding band
And I was almost persuaded
To let strange lips lead me on
Almost persuaded
But your sweet love made me stop and go home

America Will Survive [Studio Version]
But we've had enough and we've drawn the line
Our flag is up since our people went down
And we're together from the country to town
We live back in the woods you see
Big city problems never bothered me
But now the world has changed and so have I
And America can survive, America will survive!
We can plow our fields all day long
We can catch our fish from dusk 'til dawn
Yeah, we have toughed it out a time or two
These are dark days but we're gonna pull through
We grow good ol' tomatoes, we got hometown pride
America can survive, America is gonna survive
'Cause you can't scare us out, you can't make us run
What we got here is freedom and fun
We say grace and we say "ma'am"
If they don't like that, we don't give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
The Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines
Hey, we can hit back and we're gonna be fine
'Cause this ol' country can survive, America can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
Never called Hank, he called me hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a street-smart man
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway lights
And I'd send him some of that homemade scufflin' wine
He was lost like so many in the terrible strife
And we're all asking God, now why? Oh why?
I read, "A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye"
And that's an old slogan we're gonna revive
'Cause America can survive, America will survive
'Cause you can't scare us out, you can't make us run
We're them boys and girls that have freedom and fun
We say grace, we say "ma'am"
If they don't like that, we give less than a damn
We're from North California and South Alabam'
And all they've done is unite the whole land
There's no more Yankees and Rebels this time
But one united people that stand behind
America can survive, America will survive
America can survive, America is gonna survive

Amos Moses
Now Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by himself in the swamp
He hunted alligator for a living
He just knock them in the head with a stump
Louisiana law gonna get ya Amos
It ain't legal huntin alligator
Down in the swamp now
Well everyone blamed his old man
For making him mean as a snake
When Amos Moses was a boy
His Daddy would use him for alligator bait
Time for ??? and chokin in the swamp
Alligator babe in a Louisiana bayou
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana
Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap
And his pretty white Hannah
They raised up a son who could
Eat his weight in groceries
They named him after a man of cloth
Called him Amos Moses
Now the folks around South Louisiana
Thought Amos was a hell of a man
He could trap the biggest meanest alligator
And just use one hand
Thats all he got left
Cause the alligator bit it
Left on gone, clean up to the elbow
Well the sheriff got wind that Amos
Was in the swamp hutnin alligator skin
So he snuck in the swamp
Tried to get the boy
And he never came out again
Well I wonder where the
Louisiana sheriff went too?
You can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana
Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap
And his pretty white Hannah
They raised up a son who could
Eat his weight in groceries
They named him after a man of cloth
Called him Amos Moses
Sit down on em Amos
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana
Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap
And his pretty white Hannah
They raised up a son who could
Eat his weight in groceries
They named him after a man of cloth
Called him Amos Moses
His name is Amos Moses

And I know that you are looking down
To help me trough my day
And I wish I could see you once again see you walk
See you talk see you smiling again touch me now
Your angel is smiling in my bedroom every night
And I know for sure that someday
Everthing is going to be allright
Won't you stay another day
So we can share another pray please stay
Yesterday you sang to me I heard it in my sleep
You said to me we'll meet again
Our dreams will always be and I wish I could
See you once again see you walk
See you talk see you smiling again touch me now
I remember the days we had so strong

Anything Goes
Was looked at as something shocking
Now Heaven knows anything goes
Good authors too
Who once knew better words
Now only use four letter words
Writing prose, anything goes
The world has gone mad today
And good's bad today
And black's white today
And day's night today
When most guys today
That women prize today
Are just silly Romeo's
So, though I'm not a great romancer
I know that I'm bound to answer
When you propose anything goes
The world has gone mad today
And good's bad today
And black's white today
And day's night today
When most guys today

So, though I'm not a great romancer

Anything goes, anything goes
Anything you wanna do is alright with me baby

Are You Building a Temple in Heaven
Temples of beauty and wealth
But what of a temple in Heaven?
Where will you live after death?
Are you building a temple in Heaven
To live in when this life is o'er?
Will you move to that beautiful city
And live with Christ evermore?
So long is the road that leads you
To that beautiful land up there
Is work on your temple completed?
Death may be lingering near
Are you building a temple in Heaven
To live in when this life is o'er?

Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way
Where do we take it from here?
Rhinestone suits and new shiny cars
It's been the same way for years
We need to change
Somebody told me when I came to Nashville
Son you finally got it made
Old Hank made it here, we're all sure that you will
But I don't think Hank done it this way, no
I don't think Hank done it this way, okay
Ten years on the road, making one night stand
Speeding my young life away
Tell me one more time just so I'll understand
Are you sure Hank done it this way?
Did old Hank really do it this way?
Lord I've seen the world with a five piece band
Looking at the back side of me
Singing my songs, one of his now and then
But I don't think Hank done 'em this way, no
I don't think Hank done 'em this way, take it home

At The First Fall Of Snow
His garments were sackcloth - all tattered and torn
He told me a story - of sorrow and woe
His heart went to heaven - at the first fall of snow
He spoke of his angel - a dear, baby girl
He loved every footstep - he loved every curl
But she went to heaven - just one year ago
The angels came for her - at the first fall of snow
He still had the dolly - that she used to love
He held and caressed it - and gazed up above
He whispered my baby - You're waiting, I know
I'll bring you, your dolly - at the first fall of snow
And there as I listened - my eyes filled with tears
I knew she was part of - his happier years
His frail body trembled - he spoke soft and low
I'll be with my baby - at the first fall of snow
I patted his shoulder - my feelings to hide
He couldn't know - I was crying inside
He smiled as we parted - 'cause he didn't know
That we lost our baby - at the first fall of snow

Autumn in New York
Why does it seem so inviting
Autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-nighting
Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds
In canyons of steel
They're making me feel, I'm home
It's autumn in New York
That brings the promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain
Dreamers with empty hands
May sigh for exotic lands
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
Autumn in New York
The gleaming rooftops at sundown
Oh, autumn in New York
It lifts you up when you run down
Yes, jaded rous and gay divorces
Who lunch at the Ritz
Will tell you that it's divine
This autumn in New York
Transforms the slums into Mayfair
Oh, autumn in New York
You'll need no castles in Spain
Yes, lovers that bless the dark
Oh, on the benches in Central Park
Greet autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
Autumn in New York
That brings the promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain
Dreamers with empty hands
They sigh for exotic lands
It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again

Back at One
It's unbelievable, how I used to say that I'd fall never
The basis you need to know, if you don't know just how I feel
And let me show you now that I'm for real
If all things in time, time will reveal
1, you're like a dream come true
2, just wanna be with you
3, girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me and
4, repeat steps 1 through 3
5, make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at 1
It's so incredible the way things work themselves out
And unemotional once you know what it's all about and
And undesirable for us to be apart, I never would have made it very far
'Cause you know you hold the keys to my heart, 'cause
1, you're like a dream come true
2, just wanna be with you
3, girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me and
4, repeat steps 1 though 3
5, make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at 1
Say farewell to the darkened night, I see the coming of the sun
I feel like a little child whose life has just begun
You came and breathed new life into this lonely heart of mine
You threw out the lifeline just in the nick of time
1, you're like a dream come true
2, just wanna be with you
3, girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me and
4, repeat steps 1 through 3
5, make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at
1, you're like a dream come true

Baretta's Theme
Don't do it
Don't do the crime if you can't do the time
Keep your eye on the sparrow
When the going gets narrow
Don't roll the dice if you can't pay the price
Don't do it
Don't run your feet down a dead-end street
Keep your eye on the sparrow
When the going gets narrow
Don't do me dirt or you're gonna get hurt
Don't do it
Don't run away till you hear what I say
Keep your eye on the sparrow
When the going gets narrow
Ain't gonna fight with no thief in the night
Won't do it
I'm gonna go where the cold wind don't blow
Keep your eye on the sparrow
When the going gets narrow

Down in New Orleans, the land of dreams
You never know how much it seems
Not just how much it really means
I'm glad to be, yessirree
In the land of reverie
And I can't lose
My Basin Street blues

Be Careful of Stones That You Throw
The seeds of distrust it will sow
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
Be careful of stones that you throw
A neighbor was passing my garden
One time, she stopped and I knew right away
That it was gossip not flowers she had on her mind
And this is what I heard my neighbor say
"That bad girl down the street should be run from our midst
She drinks and she talks quite a lot
She knows not to speak to me or my child"
My neighbor then smiled and I thought
A tongue can accuse and carry bad news
The seeds of distrust it will sow
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
Be careful of stones that you throw
A car speeded by and the screaming of brakes
A sound that made my blood chill
For my neighbor's one child had been pulled from the path
And saved by a girl lying still
The child was unhurt and my neighbor cried out
"Oh who was that brave girl so sweet?"
I covered the crushed broken body and sad
The bad girl who lived down the street
A tongue can accuse and carry bad news
The seeds of distrust it will sow
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
Be careful of stones that you throw

Be Careful Who You Love (Arthur's Song)
So I sat down beside him and bought him a drink
Then I bought him another and finally some color
Returned to his cheeks and he said with a wink
"Son, I worked with your daddy, I knew Ernest and ol' Lefty
I played on the Oprey back when it was strong
But it's show-biz you know, sometimes it gets slow
So buy me another and I'll sing you a song"
"Be careful who you love, for love can be untrue
Be careful who you love, be sure she loves you too"
Well, you like it, I see and that's real pleasin' to me
'Cause Bocephus, I've wrote hundreds and some you know well
I wrote and sold 'em, they bought 'em and stoled 'em
But paper is cheap, why they're just tunes, what the heck
Then he tried to sell me the song he'd just song me
I told him that song is a piece of your soul
"Keep your song, here's some money", said Hank Jr.
"Bless you, son"
And I heard him singin' as I walked out the door
He said, "Now Hank remember"
"Be careful who you love, for love can be untrue
Be careful who you love, be sure she loves you too"
Well, that was about a year ago and now friends wouldn't ya know
The songs a big hit, some superstar claims he wrote
He sings it and grins and the money rolls in
It's a wonder the words don't stick in his throat
Now I think of that writer, his name was Arthur and I often wonder
Just how many hit songs he sold in his time
And how many men take the gift that God gave 'em
And throw it away for the pretty red wine, quite a few
Be careful who you love, for love can be untrue
Be careful who you love, be sure she loves you too

Bear cat
Well, you ain't nothin' but a bear cat
Been scratchin' at my door

You're just lookin' for an old soup bone
You ain't nothin' but a bear cat

You're just an old bear cat
Been scratchin' at my door
You can purr pretty kitty
But I ain't gonna rub you no more
Meow, meow
Meoooww, meoooowwwww!

Because Of You
Because of you my romance had its start
Because of you the sun will shine
The moon and stars will say you're mine
Forever and never to part
I only live for your love and your kiss
It's paradise to be near you like this
Because of you my life is now worthwhile
And I can smile
Because of you
(Instrumental break)
I only live for your love and your kiss
It's paradise to be near you like this
Because of you my life is now worthwhile
And I can smile
Because of you

Been There,Done That
See these lines on my face and these bones out of place.
I got dirt on my hat, been blessed and cussed at.
No brag,just fact.Been there,done that.
I wear old blue jeans.They got holes in the seams.
I've got boots made of brass.Kicked a whole lot of,you know what I mean.
I've been up and down,both sides of the town.
I'm stating the facts.Been there,done that.
Been there,done that.Every town on the map.
See these lines on my face and these bones out of place.
I got mud on my hat.I've been blessed and cussed at.
I ain't no pussy cat.Been there,done that.
Guess there's only one thing. Keeps a man like me going.
Gets my attention right now.Well, you know what I'm talking about,
a pretty green eyed queen dolled up in tight jeans.
It makes my heart beat fast,'cause I've been there and done that.
Been there,done that.Every joint on the map.
See these lines on my face and these guitar pickin' fingers way out of place.
I got mud on my hat.I've been blessed and cussed at.
Don't put up with no crap.
Been there,done that

Beetlebum [Mario Caldato, Jr. Mix]
Now what you've done, beetlebum
Get nothing done, you beetlebum
Just get numb, now what you've done, beetlebum
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong, I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
Beetlebum because you're young, she's a gun
Now what you've done, beetlebum
She'll suck your thumb, she'll make you come
'Cause, she's your gun, now what you've done, beetlebum
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong, I just slip away and I am gone
There's nothing is wrong, she turns me on

He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it

Begin the Beguine
It brings back the sound of music so tender
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
It brings back a memory ever green
I'm with you once more under the stars
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
And even the palms they seem to be swaying
When they begin the beguine
To live it again is past all endeavor
Except when that tune clutches my heart
And there we are, swearing to love forever
And promising never, never to part
What moments divine, what rapture serene
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted
And now when I hear people curse the chance that we wasted
I know but too well what they mean
So don't let them begin the beguine
Let the love that once was a fire remain an ember
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
Oh, when they begin the beguine
Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play
Till the stars that were there before return above you
Till you whisper to me once more, "Darling, I love you"
And suddenly know what heaven we're in
Yes, when they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine
Let the love that once was a fire remain an ember
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
Remain an ember, oh, memory ever green
When they begin, begin the beguine
Let the love that once was a fire remain an ember
Memory, remain an ember

Between Us
Headed way back east
Left behind some pain
In hopes of finding some peace
Fortunately caught one
Bound for my old neighborhood
Either way, between us, it's good
They're building a bridge
Links manhattan with the heartland
It's called the california ridge
The country needs to expand
Saw them lay the first stone
It was made of wood
Either way, between us, it's good
In an age of greys
When wrong won't become right
Let's life the haze
And scale the heights
Set my shoulders straight
Took a deep breath
This meeting i anticipate
Unlike impending death
Strode on to the platform
And there you stood
At worst, between us, it's good

Beyond the Sunset
I'll live in memory's garden dear with happy days we've known
In spring I'll wait for roses red, when fades the lilacs bloom
And in early fall when brown leaves fall, I'll catch a glimpse of you
Should you go first and I remain, for battles to be fought
Each thing you've touched along the way, will be a hallowed spot
I'll hear your voice I'll see your smile though blindly I may grope
The memory of your helping hand will buoy me on with hope
Beyond the sunset, oh blissful morning
When with our savior, heaven is begun
Earth's toiling ended, oh glory dawning
Beyond the sunset when day is done
Should you go first and I remain, to finish with the scroll
No lessening shadows shall ever creep in to make this life seem droll
We've known so much of happiness, we've had our cup of joy
And memory is one gift of God that death cannot destroy
I want to know each step you take that I may walk the same
For someday down that lonely road, you'll hear me call your name
Should you go first and I remain, one thing I'll have you do
Walk slowly down that long long path, for soon I'll follow you
In that fair homeland, we'll know no parting
Beyond the sunset for ever more

Big River
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die
Oh I met her accidentaly in St Paul Minnesota
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl southern drawl
Then I heard my dream was back downstream cavortin' in Davenport
And I followed you Big River when you called
Then you took me to St Louis later on down the river
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone boy she's gone
I found her trail in Memphis but she just walked up the block
She raised a few eyebrows and went on down alone
Now won't you batter down by Boton Rouge River Queen roll it on
Take that woman on down to New Orleans New Orleans
Go on I've had enough dump my blues down in the gulf
Oh she loves you Big River more than me
Yeah I taught the weeping willow how to cry cry cry
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
And the tears I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die

Birth of the Blues
Oh, they say some people long ago
Were searching for a diff'rent tune
One, that they could croon as only they can
They only had the rhythm
So they started swayin' to and fro
They didn't know just what to use
This is how the blues really began
They heard the breeze in the trees
Singin' weird melodies
And they made that, the start of the blues
And from a jail came the wail of a down-hearted frail
And they played that as a part of the blues
From a whippoorwill way upon a hill
They took a new note
Pushed it through a horn
Until it was worn into a blue note
And then they nursed it
They rehearsed it
And then sent out that news
That the Southland gave birth to the blues
They nursed it
Then they rehearsed it
And they sent out that news
That the Southland, they gave birth to the blues

Blame It on My Youth
Blame it on my youth
If only just for you, I did exist
Blame it on my youth
I believed in everything
Like a child of three
You meant more than anything
All the world to me
If you were on my mind both night and day
Blame it on my youth
If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray
Blame it on my youth
If I cried a little bit
When first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on my heart
Blame it on my youth
If I cried a little bit
When first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on my heart
Blame it on my youth

Blowing It
Everybody's so uptight
People hurt and that's their right
Cut 'em all loose, think I might
Stewin', hangin' out in town
And my head whirlin' around
Don't trust your mind, it'll let you down
Don't have a thing to go on
I don't know a thing to say to you
I don't know a thing to say to you
There's a time and there's a place
It's not now, it's time to pace
Things I'd say but just can't face
All it means to say then
I could believe the things I feel
Then tomorrow get the same deal
Am I acting on something real
Or am I blowing it again?
I don't know a thing to say to you
I don't know a thing to say to you
I don't know a thing to say to you
I don't know a thing to say to you

Blue Christmas
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
They won't mean a thing, if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas

Blue Jean Blues
And finally found my old blue jean
I done ran into my baby
And finally found my old blue jean
Well, I could tell that they was mine
From the oil and the gasoline
If I ever get back my blue jean

If I ever get back my blue jean
Lord, how happy could one man be
'Cause if I get back those blue jean
You know, my baby be bringin' 'em home to me

Blue Light Red Light
A lukewarm cold water flat
With room for a couple of cinders
A mouse, a hole, and a trap
I don't worry about the flights
Or count the stairs
'Cause I know
Someone's there
I took a high paying sweeping-up job
Dusting after somebody else
Seeing that there's clean on the windows
Convincing the snow to melt
I don't worry about the ride
Or the subway fare
'Cause I know
Someone's there
One day we'll move uptown
Or even out to the country side
And for every leaf on a tree
We'll add one cub to the pride
Who cares if the floor ain't level
Or if the ceiling falls in
Haunted by the devil
And ghosts and boogeymen
I can't be concerned
Why should I care
No place I'd go alone would compare
'Cause I know
You're there

Blues Man
A natural born guitar ringer
Kind of an old clinger
To sad old songs
I'm not a walk behinder
I'm a new note finder
But my names a reminder
Of a blues man thats already gone
So I started drinkin
And took things that messed up my thinkin'
I was sure sinkin'
When you came along
I was alone in the hotlight
Not too much left in sight
But she changed all that in one night
When she sang me this song
"Hey baby, I love you
Hey baby, I need you
Hey baby , you ain't gotta prove to me your some kind of macho man
You wasted so much of your life
Runnin through the dark night
Let me shine some love light
Down on a blues man"
I got so sick of speed
And all the stuff they said I was needin
If I was to keep pleasin to all of my fans
I got cuffed on dirt roads
I got sued for no-shows
But you came and took all that old load down on this blues man
"Hey baby, I love you too
Hey baby, I need you
Hey baby, I do get tired of this travelin band
I'm thirty years old now
Nights would be cold now
If you wouldn't have stuck it out
With this blues man"
I'm thirty years old now
Night sure would be cold now
If you hadn't stuck it out
with this blues man

Booker
"he won't need a cell
He has the key
There's no harsher sentence
The man's doin life
In the first degree"
Some people seek to set blame
Some just accept their part
And now you know why
Booker died of a broken heart
And the priest said
"i can take confession
But not the sin
The church is shelter
Not the faith
Son, that's within"
Some people pray for fortune and fame
Some just play a part
And now you know why
Booker died of a broken heart
And the doctor said
"i can see you're hurt
Just by lookin at you
Pain we can help
But for hurt
There's nothin we can do"
Some people pick up the pieces
Some just leave them apart
And now you know why
Booker died of a broken heart

Boozehound
I used to be a boozehound
Spent my time downtown
Gettin round
Sittin in the barroom
Tryin to get another drink
"i think you've had enough"
"come on... just one more"
This time i ain't feelin so fine
Whatcha say we get to downin
Don't throw me just forget about the line
I wish i could be drownin
Sweet water... i ain't seen her in a while
I don't know if i can face her
I know she can always make me smile
If i can't outrun my chaser
I used to be a boozehound
Buzzin round midtown
Gettin loaded
Tryin to get a number
Feelin mighty good
"is this guy bothering you?"
"no, no, i was just..."
All my life there ain't never been a drought
That's probably been my downfall
Even though, you know,
I might be passed out
I won't drop the high ball
I know where the river flows
And the lives that it devours
Ain't it great i can touch my nose
But i can't smell the flowers
I used to be a boozehound
Stumblin uptown
Gettin higher
Fallin off the barstool
Rememberin where i left the floor
"say buddy, you need some help"
"no, i'm cool..."
Come and get me you can be my boogeyman
You can catch me on the rebound
You may not fly like the candyman can
But it's safer on the ground
Just one more trip to the fun house
They'll smother me with foam
See, my brother, that's the one house
That i can call my home

Born to Be Blue
But they are such a chosen few, chosen few
And clover being green is something I've never seen
'Cause I was born to be blue
When there's a yellow moon above me
They say there's moonbeams I should view, I should view
But moonbeams being gold, are something I can't behold
'Cause I was born to be blue
When I met you, the world was bright and sunny
When you left, the curtain fell
I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny
Now my world's a faded pastel, oh well
I guess I'm luckier than some folks
I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you
And that alone is more than I was created for
'Cause I was born to be blue
When I met you the world was bright and sunny
When you left the curtain fell
I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny
Now my world's a faded pastel, oh well
I guess I'm luckier than some folks

Born to Boogie
They tied the knot so here I am
Born on the bayou on the Texas Line
Loved Louisanana and raised on Jabalaya
Now before I could walk I had a guitar in my hand by the time I could talk I had my own band
Went on the road when I was eight years old when I turned fifteen I was stealing the show
Money to burn and the girls were pretty it didn't take me long to learn that I was born to boogie
When I was eighteen I went to Hollywood I met Elvis, Marilyn and Johnny B. Goode
Got my guitar painted in the California sun a red caddilac having to much fun
Now we were playing them halls and jammin' then until they moved me on over to M.G.M
They said this is the boy we've been telling you about, he lit a cigar and stuck his hand out
He said son have we got a deal for you gonna make you a star give you fifty thousand too
I told him my Momma didn't raise no fool
I'll take your money, I'll make you a movie
But I can tell ya' right now I am born to boogie
Well my name is Bocephus I drink whiskey by the gallon and I never back down and I love a good chall
What I do now is what I did then I like to get down with all my rowdy friends
Now I can be sweet and I can be mean I still got my hat and I still wear my jeans
My shades are chromo my guitar is steal if you think I won't then believe me I will
Get down on you baby because I ain't no rookie I was put here to party and I was born to boogie

Both Sides Of Goodbye
Your not the first to walk away and leave someone in pain.
I know how much its hurting you, hurting me this way.
Believe me I've been in your shoes and I know you can't stay.
I've been on both sides of goodbye. I know there ain't no easy side. I've loved and I've been loved but not at the same time. I've been on both sides of goodbye.
Don't feel so bad for doing what you've got to do.
You can't make your heart love me if it don't want to.
When love just don't work both ways and someones got to go.
So close that door and don't look back, believe me girl I know.
I've been on both sides of goodbye and I know there ain't no easy ride. I've loved and I've been loved but not at the same time. I've been on both sides of goodbye.
I've loved and I've been loved but not at the same time I've been on both sides of goodbye,
goodbye!

Brainwasher
Release me from this shame
And wash my brain
Rose print underwear
Curly, curly blond, blond hair
You shine like a dandy lion
And I hear my own self sighin'
Shooby, dooby, hey, hey, hey
I hope you don’t scare easily
And I'll wash my brain, ohh, wash my brain
Cleanse me of this shame
And wash my brain
Your skirts, are so clean
And they rest just above the knee
These needs are so intense
They drain my intelligence
Heyde, heyde, hail, hail, hail
I swear to God, I won’t kiss and tell
You wash my brain, ohh, wash my brain
Release me from this shame
Ohh, wash my brain
My mind is so dirty, I got mud runnin' out of my ears
They clog up, so I can’t hear
The tears of fear
You better get out of here
Your smiles are so bright
So, let’s turn out the lights
If you can’t see the thing which we do
Then, maybe, baby, you ain't used
Shooby, dooby, ooh, whop, whop, whop
Ohh, God, would you leave on your socks
And I wash my brain, ohh, wash my brain
Release me from this shame
Ohh, wash my brain

Bright Young Thing
This big place I live
She was scared to go outside
Where it once felt so nice to me
Picked up a smoke, then you drag a little
I wanna choke so you won't belittle
Everyone knows that she'll do it over
And over and over and over again
You're pretty, won't you come play with me?
This time I'll be nice
You can't trust what I say to you
I know they're all lies, do you?
And if you ever had to
I would be going strong
What in the world was happening?
Dear, can I be wrong?
Picked up a smoke, then you drag a little
I wanna choke so you won't belittle
Everyone knows that she'll do it over
And over and over and over again

Broken
You fell in love with a broken heart
Love in these modern times
There'll be someone new every night
With some other love yarn
To wrap my harms around
No one else can understand
(Hold me)
I can't hear you
(Trust me)
Not about you
In love with a broken heart
(Think I leave today, cover it all this way)
You fell in love with a broken heart
(Every earthly breath, lifeless testimony)
In love with a broken heart
(Don't you know?)
Love in these modern times
I'll become what your first class said
I'm no light weight, I'll find time to throw us down
You'd feel my medicine's side effect
Fink I'll grab some magazine
(I know you)
Never seen me
(Promised you)
You believed me?
In love with a broken heart
(Think I leave today, cover it all this way)
You fell in love with a broken heart
(Every earthly breath, lifeless testimony)
You fell in love with a broken heart
(Another lifeless testimony)
(And it shows)
Oh, please machine, let's keep this terminal clean
I say, I'll see your face in every cloud
Down a Dewar's laugh out loud
Fly girl shouts to keep it down
Paddy's wagon draws a crowd
(Save your days)
I don't save days
(Any way)
I think, leave days
God grant me the strength
To accept the things I can change, change them
(Just for the last time)
God grant me the strength
To accept the things I can
(Just for the last time)
God grant me the strength
To accept the things I can change, change
(Show me)
I can't miss you
(Change)
Change, yeah yeah yeah yeah
In love with a broken heart
(Face in every cloud, makes me laugh out loud)
You fell in love with a broken heart
(Shouts to keep it down, wagon draws a crowd)
In love with a broken heart
(In these modern times, what your first class said)
(Time to throw us down, medicine's side effects)
You fell in love with a broken heart
(Said you never see me, not that you'd believe me)
(Blast your masterplan, I don't [Incomprehensible])
In love with a broken heart
(Tell the situation, gets me to the station)
You fell in love with a broken heart
(And it shows)
I think I'll burn that bridge when I come to you
I'll burn that bridge when I come

Brother, Where Are You
And hope was in his eyes
As he searched the faces of the people he'd meet
For one he could recognize
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way
(Looking for a soul brother all around him
Looking for a soul brother all around him)
The eyes of the people who passed him by
Were cold and as hard as stone
The poor boy whimpered and began to cry
Because he was all alone
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way, yeah
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way
(Looking for a soul brother all around him
Looking for a soul brother all around him)
Now there are many who swear it's true
That brothers all we are
Yet it seems there are very few
Who will answer a brother's call
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way, yeah
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way
Now there are many who will swear it's true
That brothers all we are
Yet it seems there are so few
Who will answer a brother's call
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way, yeah
Brother, where are you?
They told me you came this way
Looking for a soul brother all around him
(They said you came this way)
Looking for a soul brother all around him
(Said you came this way)
Looking for a soul brother all around him
(I know you came this way)
Looking for a soul brother all around him
(Oh, you came this way, I know you came this way)
Looking for a soul brother all around him
Looking for a soul brother all around him
Looking for a soul brother all around him
Looking for a soul brother all around him
Looking for a soul brother all around him

Bulbs Of Passion
I sit queasy, jittered, uneasy
The toll that looms, the loss [cows] i dread
I buckle, when my judge clutches
Questioning my treatment of an ego underfed
Bulbs of passion
Bulbs of passion
Place it here on the bureau
Let the interests rip apart the understood
No one's satisfied with merely a cut
So they sabotage their own livelihood
The feeble structure is teetering, but intact
The parts all function but the fuse is lit
Teeth scrape on the last remaining fossil
I wanna to crumble but instead i slit
And hold it in my hand
But they're sweating
Train for now, but soon forget
The tears are flowing from the love in her eyes
The hated feeling gonna eat me alive
Bulbs of passion
Bulbs of passion
Bulbs of passion
Bulbs of passion

Buried In Blue
The sun sets red with rage
White clouds float by
Like high cotton
Blank as an empty page
Blue is a color buried
Not forgotten
Sweet as mother's milk
And clear as the wind
Wrap the dead in a pleat of silk
Blue is the color to be buried in
When you left
Leaving nothing behind
There's no one to blame
No criminal, no crime
You can report a missing person
But not a stolen heart
And I'm missing a person
To whom stealing was an art
The painting's complete
The brush strokes dry
I hear a band playing
A bent note or two
I guess someone died
And just wants to be
Buried in blue

But Not For Me
They're writing songs of love
But not for me
A lucky star's above
But not for me
With love to lead the way
I've found more clouds of gray
Than any russian play
Could guarantee
I was a fool to fall
And get that way
Hi ho! alas!
And also, lackaday!
Although i can't dismiss
The memory of her kiss
I guess
She's not for me
It all began so well
But what an end
This is the time
A fellow needs a friend
When every happy plot
Ends with a the marriage knot
And there's
No knot for me

By The Time I Get To Phoenix
And she'll find that note that I left hanging on the door
And she'll laugh when she reads the part
That says: "I'm leaving"
Cause I've left that girl so many times before
And by the time I get to Albuquerque, she'll be working
And she'll take off time just to give me a call
And she'll hear that phone keep right on ringing and ringing
On the wall, yeah oh, that's all
And by the time I make Oklahoma, she'll be sleeping
She'll turn softly in her sleep and call my name out low
And then she'll cry just to think that I'd really leave her, I left her
But time after time after time I tried to tell her so
But she just didn't know That I would really go
That I would really go

Bye Bye Blackbird
Here I go swingin' low
Bye bye little blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is she
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love and understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories, they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive, late tonight
Blackbird bye bye
Pack up all my cares and woe
Here I go singin' low
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is she
Blackbird
Make my bed and light little light
I'll arrive a little late tonight
Blackbird bye bye

Byrd Call
They've been askin'
You ready? You up, motherfucker, DipSet, let's go
Writer
To all my hustlers, rock smugglers, strugglers
Block bubblers, pushers, cookers, pot jugglers
What's the word, y'all?Flip that herb raw
Clap, that's the byrd call
If the cops are comin', get to hop and runnin'
Quick and drop that onion, ain't no stoppin' young'n
Put away that herb raw, let us know the word or
Clap, that's the byrd call
I still be where the weed flip, in the P's wit the trees lit
So much water in the order, it's just leavin' 'em seasick
Wit a ski in my V6, tryin' to skeet on a B lips
Down low, like I'm tryin' to keep her a secret
Acura on chrome, passin' me dome
Next minute, shit, I'm finished, she'll be flaggin' it home
But I always keep a straggler that's known to bone
And run through a lap, faster than Marion Jones
Man, listen, I still got the grams flippin'
Tan pitchin', corner to the damn kitchen
Gained a couple fans, had to make a transition
But I'm still in the hood like your transmission
No cat could match me, I'm passin' fastly, who's half as nasty
I got it locked from here, all the way to Cakalakie
But keep a mac for scrappies thinkin' it's just Laffy Taffy
Shit, this beat'll be the only thing clappin' at me
To all my hustlers, rock smugglers, strugglers
Block bubblers, pushers, cookers, pot jugglers

Damn, homey, in high school, you was the man, homey
That's what a fan told me, shit
Same old cat, get his Kangol clapped
Brains blown back, dissin' dame, dame don't rap
Shame on black, the game's so whack
Dame search for children from in front of ya buildin'
Right to a hundred million
Go ahead, pimpin', pimpin', go ahead, act up doggy
Getcha limp on pimpin', if they actin' froggy
Tell 'em, back up off me, I come down, clap the 40
Child, that's a badder story, I'm not in my category
Mess around, dame held Def Jam down
So pardon my back, jackin' any left hand pounds
Redneck found, tech, tech pound, duck, duck goose
Pump, pump shoot, shoot, let's get down, down
It may seem petty, but we all turn mean deadly
For green fetti, my whole team ready
To all my hustlers, rock smugglers, strugglers
Block bubblers, pushers, cookers, pot jugglers
What's the word, y'all?Flip that herb raw

Quick and drop that onion, ain't no stoppin' young'n
Put away that herb raw, let us know the word or

This ain't only bars and tracks, this is for the hardest cats
Flippin' all the hard and back, make 'em catch a heart attack
When you see the narcs attack, let me know, start to clap

A star with a deal, Chapar be on chill
The car is DeVille, it's real ill, pardon the grill

Cajun Baby
That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land
Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal
Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold
Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne
My heart's been sad and lonely since the day I left her side
But today I got her letter said she'd be my Cajun bride
Gonna go and wed my Cajun baby and live by the old bayou
Eat a lotsa shrimp and crawfish ride around in my old pirogue
Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne
That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land
Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal
Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold
Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne
Before the sun goes down this evening, I'll be on my way
To see my Cajun baby and there I'm gonna stay
On a Saturday night we go dancin' and listen to the fiddle-o
Lord I got me a Cajun baby just a livin' and a lovin' by the old bayou
Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne
That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land
Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal
Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold
Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne

Call an Ambulance
And he left to go home to get some sleep instead
Well, his baby stayed where she was
I go talk to her 'cause I wanna sleep with her
And you would only hold me
If I would never tell you it would end
And you would never have me
'Cause you were only wanting to be friends
And you would always hold out till he gave out
Now that he's back, I'm afraid you'll go back
To his bed, where I know he'll try to keep you
Well, I'm well aware of what she does
She won't leave me because I sleep with her
And you would only hold me
If I would never tell you it would end
And you would never have me
'Cause you were only wanting to be friends
And you would always hold out till he gave out

Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
When your soul is lost in sin and you're at your journey's end
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
Calling you, calling you
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
He will take you by the hand, lead you to that promised land
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
As you journey day by day and temptation comes your way
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
If you'll follow in his light he will always guide you right
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
Calling you, calling you
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
He will take you by the hand, lead you to that promised land
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
When your soul is burdened down and your friends cannot be found
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
If you'll follow him each day he will brighten up your way
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
Calling you, calling you
Can't you hear the blessed Saviour calling you?
He will take you by the hand, lead you to that promised land

Can You Stop the Rain
Here's another morning without you
Here's another day, will I get through
Without breaking down
Haven't seen the sun since you've been gone
Like my heart I lost it when you left me
And it can't be found
How can I go on
Baby, I've been living on memories
Of you and me
All the love we made
All those tender nights
And those endless days, they're all here inside
Baby, can you stop the rain from falling?
Won't you chase my clouds away?
I'd give anything to see the sun again
Only you can stop these tears from falling
I can't face another day, baby, can you stop
Can you stop the rain? Oh, oh
Everywhere I go I feel you there
Following my footsteps like a shadow
Of my broken heart
Sometimes it's a pair of passing eyes
Or it's just the way someone is talking
And there you are
Am I all alone
Don't you ever wake up and reach for me
Where I used to be
Is there any chance
I just can't believe you're not lonely too
Just for me and you
Baby, can you stop the rain from falling?
Won't you chase my clouds away?
I'd give anything to see the sun again
Only you can stop these tears from falling
I can't face another day, baby, can you stop
Can you stop the rain? Oh, oh
If you are here for only one night
Baby, I know you remember
'Cause loving you once wasn't time enough
I know we can make it together, together
Baby, stop the rain
Won't you chase my clouds away
I'd give anything to see the sun again
Only you can stop these tears of mine from falling
I can't face another day, baby, can you stop
Can you, can you stop the rain
Can you stop the rain? Yeah
How can I live without you, baby?
How can I let you go? Yeah
Chase my clouds away, yeah

Can't We Be Friends
So it seems this is how the story ends
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
Not for long! I can see the way this ends
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"
Never again and through with love
And through with them
They play their game without shame
And who's to blame?
I thought I'd found a girl I could trust
What a bust! Now I see the way this ends
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"
Never again and through with love
And through with them
They play their game without shame
And who's to blame?
I should have seen the signals and stopped
What a flop! Now I see the way this ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"
I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams
So it seems this is how the story ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"

Everybody gather around and listen because,
I'm the Candy Man
Who can take a sunrise, sprinkle it with dew
Cover it with chocolate and a miracle or two
The Candy Man, oh the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love

Who can take a rainbow, wrap it in the sky
Soak it in the sun and make a groovy lemon pie
The Candy Man, the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love
and makes the world taste good
The Candy Man makes everything he bakes satisfying and delicious
Now you talk about your childhood wishes, you can even eat the dishes
Oh, who can take tomorrow, dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream

Talk about your childhood wishes, you can even eat the dishes

Caravan
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
This memory of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to all the magic charms of you
You beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
This is so exciting, you, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to all the magic charms of you
You beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan

Cats In A Bowl
Looking for a face
Had to get out of my room for a bit
Tension is in town and i'm ready to quit
Can't fall out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
And i can't climb out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
See the same old hares
Running to the same old holes
Price of liquorice has doubled
Teetering, would it finally fall
Can't climb out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
And i can't climb out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
Ever changing scenery
Drifting this town
Even if i leave
Someone just like me
Popped out of the ground
Loose thoughts go, he slits his hand
They'll be a problem well, ride it
Gathering, giggling, staggering
Hoping, ? has been left from last night
Scrape along the sidewalk
Looking for a face
Had to get out of my room for a bit
Tension is in town and i'm ready to quit
Can't pull out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
And i can't climb out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
See the same old hares
Running to the same old holes
Price of liquorice has doubled
Teetering, would it finally fall
Can't climb out of this hole
It's just like cats in a bowl
And i can't climb out of this hole
It's just like cats in a
Just like cats in a bowl
Nowhere to run
Every town's the same
So keep on running along
Hope the sidewalk won't break for me

Caught a Touch of Your Love
I think it might have something to do with you
Every time you're near me my body gets hot
Don't need a doctor, I know what I've got
I caught a touch of your love
It came on overnight
I must have held you too tight
Last night caught a touch of your love
Your affection has affected me
I'm feeling kind of dizzy and weak in the knees
I've been in love before but never so bad
You're in my system and it's driving me mad
Caught a touch of your love
It came on overnight
I must have held you too tight
Last night and caught a touch of your love
Fever from your kisses tears me apart
It starts from your lips and goes straight to my heart
No use pretending 'cause baby, I'm sure
There's no cure and I've just gotta have more
Caught a touch of your love
It came on overnight
I must have held you too tight
Last night and caught a touch of your love
Fever from your kisses tears me apart
It starts from your lips and goes straight to my heart
No use pretending 'cause baby, I'm sure
There's no cure and I've just gotta have more
I've caught a touch of your love
It came on overnight
I must have held you too tight

Change Partners
With the same fortunate man
You have danced with him since the music began
Why don't you change partners and dance with me
Must you stand quite so close
With your lips touching his face
Can't you see I'm longing to be in his place
Why don't you change partners and dance with me
Ask him to sit this one out
And while you're alone
I'll tell the waiter to tell him
He's wanted on the telephone
You've been locked in his arms
Ever since heaven knows when
Why don't you change partners and then
You may never want to change partners again

Charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games, acting out names
Guessing the parts we played
Oh, what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill, lovers until
Love left the masquerade
Fate seemed to pull the strings
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wings
The music box played on
Sad little serenade
Song of my hearts composing
I hear it still, I always will
Best on the bill, charade

Chattanooga Choo Choo
Step aside partner, it's my day
Bend an ear and listen to my version
Of a really solid Tennessee excursion
Pardon me boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
(Yes, yes, track 29)
Hey, would you give me a shine?
(Can you afford to board Chattanooga Choo Choo?)
I got my fare
And just the travel to spare
You leave the Pennsylvania Station by a quarter to four
You read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in a diner
Nothing could be finer
And then to have a hammer in the Carolina
When you hear the whistle blowing into the bar
Then you now the Tennessee is not very far
Shove a all the coal in
Gotta keep a rollin'
Woo woo, Chattanooga, there you are
There's gonna be
A certain party at the station
Satin and Lace
(Ooh)
I use to call funny face
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
She's gonna cry
Until I promise to never ever roll
So, Chattanooga Choo Choo
Won't you choo choo me home
(Chattanooga, Chattanooga)
Get aboard
(Chattanooga, Chattanooga)
Chattanooga Choo Choo
Won't you choo choo me home

Chicago, Chicago, I'll show you around, I love it
Bet your bottom dollar, you'll lose the blues in Chicago
Chicago, the town that Billy Sunday couldn't shut down
On State Street, that great street, I just want to say
They do things that they don't do on Broadway
They have the time, the time of their life
I saw a man, he danced with his wife in Chicago
Chicago, my home town
Chicago, Chicago, that toddling town
Chicago, Chicago, I'll show you around, I love it
Bet your bottom dollar, you'll lose the blues in Chicago

Christmas Dreaming
A little early this year
No sign of snow around
And yet I go around
Hearing jingle bells ringing in my ear

Citizen Kane Jr. Blues
a gun in her hand
But she don't know how to use it.
Sooner or later she'll
have to take a stand
And she ain't about to lose it.
All the towns people gather around
They've come to see
what's going down
Although no one hears a sound
There's another poor man
falling down.
Falling down, falling down.
Falling down, falling down.
On this noisy shore
Standing at the edge of you.
Could those dreams of yours be true
Or did you, did you, did you
Pushed it over the end?
How much time did you spend?
Pushed it over the end.
Good lookin' Milly's
into politics now
And things are looking much better
She keeps ten men in her garage
Knitting her fine sweaters.
At the end of a weary day
She feels hard and she looks hard.
Although no one hears a sound
There's another poor man
falling down.
Falling down, falling down.
Falling down, falling down.
I came back for more
And found you waiting at the door
And far inside your walls
I called
Did you, did you, did you
Pushed it over the end?
How much time did you spend?
Pushed it over the end.
How much love did you spend?
Pushed it over the end.

Cold Cold Heart
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?
There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me
But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory
The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?

But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory
The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart?

Come and Go Blues
But I wouldn't cut you loose, baby, if I could
I seem to stay down on the ground
Baby, I'm too far gone to turn around
Oh, if only you would make up your mind
Take me where you go, you're leaving me [Incomprehensible] behind
Woman, you got those come and go blues
Yes, you do
Lord, you got those come and go blues
Yes, you do
And oh, you got me feelin' like a fool
Just like a fool
'Round and 'round, 'round we go
Don't ask me why I stay here, I don't know
Well, maybe I'm a fool to care
Without your sweet love, baby, I would be nowhere
So here I'll stay, locked in your web
Till that day I might find someone else
But I don't know just when that would be
But I don't know, I can't say 'cause I can't see
Sail on, my darlin', sail on
You just go your way and I'll go mine
But it seems to me that I once heard
That everything is finally cured by time
Yes, sail on, my darlin', sail on
And I'll just wish you good luck
And I'll see you when you come next time
Lord, you got those come and go blues
Yes, you do
Woman, you got those come and go blues
I swear you do
Oh and you got me feelin' like a fool
Just like a fool

Come Back to Me
Take a train, steal a car
Hop a freight, grab a star
Come back to me
Catch a flame, catch a breeze
On your hands, on your knees
Swim or fly, only please
Come on back to me
On a mule, in a jet
Put yourself in a net
But come back to me, yet
I don't care, this is where you should be
From the hills, from the shore
Ride the wind to my door, turn the highway into dust
Break the law if you must, move the world only just
Come back to me
Blast your hide, hear me call
Must I fight city hall
Here and now, darn it all
Come on back to me
What on earth must I do
Scream and yell till I'm blue
Curse your soul when will you
Come on back to me
Have you gone to the moon
Or the corner saloon
And to crack and to croon
I don't care, this is where you should be
In a crate, in a trunk
On a horse, on a drunk
In a road or a van
Wrap yourself in saran
Anyway that you can
Came back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me

Come By Me
Come by me, come talk to me baby
Tell me how we can combine
Will you be my sunshine forever
Will you be a friend of mine
Try me out and if you get excited
Take me home, i'd love to be invited
Once we're there, i'm sure you'll be delighted
We can rock all night
Wait and see, we might fit together
That would be my lucky day
Come by me, come love with me baby
Maybe we could run away

Come on over to the Country
Listening to people sing with hats on their heads
Well my how times have changed!
Did you get tired of heavy metal and chains?
Come breathe the cool mountain air
Yeah take a look at our pretty girls on display
Yeah buy a hat, no you won't look like a fool
'Cause country's hot and country's cool
Come on over to the country
I think you'll like it here just fine
Come on over to the country
We'll try to soothe your rattled mind
Come on over to the country
Listen to our people sing
Come on over to the country
You might find we're to your liking
Don't matter if you're in New York or L.A.
We'll take you to Montana from the freeway
Come ride with us down the radio way
We're here 24 hours a day
Yeah my girl used to be a rock and roll queen
That was until the night she heard Bocephus sing
She married me and she moved to the country
Why she even had cow poo on her jeans, ooh
Come on over to the country
I think you'll like ti here just fine
Come on over to the country
We'll try to soothe your rattled mind
Come on over to the country
Do you ever hear old Hank sing?
Come on over to the country
You might find we're to your liking
Come on over to the country
You might find we're to your liking

Come Sundown
As I wakened from my sleep
With the last touch of her lips, Lord
Like a whisper on my cheek
And I cursed the sun for risin'
For the worst, Lord is yet to come
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin'
But come sundown, she'll be gone
See the lipstick on the pillow
That I placed beneath her head
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord
Where she lay upon my bed
And it hurts to know it's over
For the hurt, Lord has just begun
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin'
But come sundown, she'll be gone

Country State of Mind
So you best be on the creek bank, laid in the shade
Chewin' on a hickory twig
Pass that bottle, I'll have me a swig
I ain't got a lot but I think I got it made in the shade
I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind
Catchin' these fish like they're goin' out of style
And drinkin' this homemade wine
Hey, if the sun don't come up tomorrow
People, I have had a good time
I’m just laid up here in a country state of mind
I bet the old man's in the kitchen, he's got my kind of music on his radio
Oh, I'm drinkin' his beer and dialin' up the request lines
Mama and old aunt Joan
Probably in the dinin' room, tryin' to use the phone
Me, I'm thinkin' about that girl and later tonight
I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind
I'm catchin' these fish like they're goin' out of style
I'm drinkin' this homemade wine
And if the sun don't come up tomorrow
People, I have had a good time
I’m just laid up here in a country state of mind
You know, the red necks and the preppies
They are in their discos and honky-tonks
Somewhere between 'Raising Hell' and 'Amazing Grace'
Lord, I know just how they feel, you gotta get out and kick up your heels
And ain't it great to be 'Livin' In The U.S.A'
Me, I'm laid up here in a country state of mind
Catchin' these fish like they're goin' out of style
And drinkin' this homemade wine all the time
If the sun don't shine tomorrow
People, I have had a good time
I’m just laid up here in a country state of mind
Yodlehehoo, odlehehoo, odleee

Cry Me A River
You cry the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
You never shed a tear
Remember, I remember all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian, told me you were through with me
And now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Cry, Cry Darling
If you should leave me with the blues
Cry, cry, darling, that's all I do
'Cause you're the one that's in my heart
For me there'll be no moonlight
If ever we should part
Cry, cry, darling, that's all I do
'Cause you're the one that's in my heart
Cry, cry, darling, my eyes will cry
And never dry if you should go
Cry, cry, darling, when shadows creep
I'll just weep all night I know
You know, how much I'd miss you
If ever we should part
Cry, cry, darling, that's all I do
'Cause you're the one that's in my heart

Cut Bank, Montana
But my heart was on fire when I saw her step down from the train
I'd been up there forever but her arms were finally around me
All my icicles melted away at the sound of her name
I held her to me as tightly as I held her letter
That said, "I don't love him, I'm leaving this cold, mean man"
As the train pulled away from the platform and I put her in the wagon
With her head on my shoulder, God knows I was one happy man
And I went to heaven that night in her arms in my cabin
In the winter of '94 there burned such a powerful flame
They still hear her voice in the cabin in Cut Bank, Montana
And the icicles all melt away at the sound of her name
Hell rolled into town one night on a Wyoming stallion
His heart full of hate and eyes full of cold jealousy
One way or another he said partner I'm taking back my woman
With my hand on my gun I said don't bet your life the lady said
She's staying with me
His knife was a flash in the light of the kerosene lantern
That fell as we tangled and fought in the fire on the floor
He was a dead man, but I have been to since I lost her
from the fire that burned me so bad as I crawled through the door
But I went to heaven that night in her arms in my little cabin
In the winter of '94 there burned one hell of a flame
They still hear her voice from the cabin in Cut Bank, Montana
And the icicle all melt away at the sound of her name
They still hear her voice from the cabin in Cut Bank, Montana
And the icicles all just melt away at the sound of her name

Danny Boy
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
It's I'll be here in sunshine, or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
But when ye come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, and dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ";Ave"; there for me
And I shall hear tho' soft you tread above me
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me

Darling You Know I Wouldn't Lie
And like I promised I just told her goodbye
Please believe me for this time, it's really over
And darling you know I wouldn't lie
Didn't I come and tell you about her
How temptation lured she and I
But now I know it was only fascination
And darling you know I wouldn't lie
I had to led her down easy as slow as I could
After all she's got feelings too
But it took a little longer than I thought it would
But this time she knows we're really through
She wanted to hold me forever
And this lipstick shows her final try
And these tears on my shoulders are provin' that she failed
And darling you know I wouldn't lie

Dat Dere
Hey mama, hey mama, hey look at that over there!
And what's that doing there? And where're they going there?
And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?
And who's that in my chair? And what's he doing there?
Mama, hey mama, can I go over there?
Hey mama, what is square? And where do we get air?
And mama can I have that big elephant over there?
Quizzical kid, she doesn't want anything here
Just forever to manage to know who what why or where
Inquisitive child, sometimes the questions get wild
Like mommy can I have that big elephant over there?
Don't wanna comb my hair and where's my teddy bear?
And mama, hey look at the cowboy coming there
And can I have a pair of boots like that to wear?
And mama can I have that big elephant over there?
The time will march days will go
And little baby's going to grow
I gotta tell her what she needs to know
I'll help her along and she'll be strong
And she'll know right from wrong
As life's parade goes marching by
She's gonna need to know some reasons why
I don't have all the answers but I'll try to do what I can
We'll make a plan
You give the kid your best and hope she’ll pass the test
And finally send her out into the world somewhere
And though she's grown up I bet I never will forget
Mummy, can I have that big elephant over there?
Hey why they do that there? And how you put that there?
Hey mummy, up here! Hey mummy, what that say up there?
Hey mummy, what is fair? How come I have to share?
And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?
And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?
And mummy can I have that big elephant over there?

Dedicated to You
That brought me fame and fortune too
That book would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
And if I should paint a picture too
That showed the loveliness of you
My art would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
To you because your love is the beacon
That lights up my way
To you because with you I know
A lifetime could be just one heavenly day
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wondrous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
To you because your love is a beacon
That lights up my way
To you because with you I know
A lifetime could be just one heavenly day
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wondrous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me

Details
Did I remind you of the boy at the Louvre?
Watching you move
I don't know, for five hundred years
Out of the furnace into the forest
And the harvest of my youth
Tell me the truth
Do you, does anyone, anymore?
I've come to believe if a man does his deeds
While he's missing wine
He's already died, he's already died
A hundred times
Did you remember seven Septembers of sacred rendezvous?
Spryhanding only for you
Do you remember tipping the vendor and how we used to goof?
Spryhanding only for you
And my fear and my pride, the shadow inside
With a note on the door and a card on the floor
About a hundred times before
First it was nearly, then it was barely
And now it seems pretty far
When you were tipsy
I was a wizard with a silver star
Will spare the details of the rocks and the nails
The times that I've lied can't lay down tonight
I've already tried a hundred times
I will spare the details of the rocks and the nails
And the times that I've lied can't lay down tonight
I've already tried a hundred times

Detroit City
I want to go home
Oh, how I want to go home
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit city
And I dreamed about those cotton fields at home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old papa, sister and brother
I dreamed about that girl who's been waiting for so long
I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh, how I want to go home
At home folks think I'm big in Detroit city
From the letters that I write they think I'm fine
But by day I make the cars and by night I make the bars
If only they could read between the lines
You know I rode a freight train north to Detroit city
After all these years I find that I've just been wasting my time
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride put on a southbound train and ride
And go on back to the loved ones the ones that I've left waiting so far behind
I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh, how I want to go home
I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh, how I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh, how I want to go home

Devil Doll
I snick her into bed
Didn't think you’d ever know
Didn't think you were coming home
I saw the devil dressed up as a doll
You woke me with a kick
Followed up by repeated hits
I think I have a broken rib
I taste blood upon my lips
I saw the devil dressed up as a doll
Devil doll
Please put that gun away
I don’t even know her name
But she ain't worth dying for
It’s only you that I adore
I saw the devil dressed up as a doll
The hippy chick was quick
Rolled out of bed lickety-split
Went through the door without being shot
Runnin’ naked in her birchen stocks
I saw the devil dressed up as a doll
Devil doll
Devil doll
What if I screamed from my knees
Please don’t put those bullets in me
What if we love instead?
Do you believe anything I've said?
I saw the devil dressed up as a doll
Devil doll

Devil in the Bottle
Stumble in the back door being quiet as I can
And I know she's there in bed, cold and all alone
And she's crying because I'm breaking up our home
And she knows the hell I'm going through in this world inside my head
There's a devil in the bottle, Lord, and he wants to see me dead
I fall into her arms and she helps me with my clothes
Guess, she stays on with me 'cause she really knows
That I'm tryin' Lord, to find my freedom
By escaping to the only freedom I've ever known
And she knows the hell I'm going through in this world inside my head
There's a devil in the bottle, Lord, and he won't rest until I'm dead
There's a devil living in the bottle, Lord, and he won't rest 'til I'm dead
And it's killing her too, watching me die this way

There's a wreck on highway one
Die young
When your life has just begun
Someone wonders why
You ain't coming home
Die young
By the last rays of the sun
Die young
Whit so many songs unsung
Someone's worried now
Feeling all alone
Oh my baby
Don't cry
Don't cry tonight
Die young
Now the ambulance is gone
Die young someones lover someones son
Somewhere echoing
The ringing of a phone
Oh my baby
Don't cry
Don't cry tonight
Die young
There's a wreck on highway one
Die young

Dinosaur
And they sure don't look like cowboy boots
And that ain't rock and roll you're playin'
And it sure ain't country or rhythm and blues
You're singin' a song about makin' love to your drummer
Well gay guitar-pickers don't turn me on
And we don't all get into Donna summer
Do you happen to know any old hank Williams songs
'Cause you see I'm a dinosaur
I should've died a long time before
Have pity on a dinosaur hand me my hat
Excuse me man but where's the door
It used to be I had a lotta fun in this old hangout
We'd get stoned at the jukebox and stay outta fights
Now and then we'd light a little smoke in the truck out back
Aww, then a little old Jim beam and we'd get right
And you know these flashing lights sure make me dizzy
And this disco's very strange to my ear
It looks like they've turned the longhorn into a spaceship
And I'll be leavin' just as soon as I finish this beer
'Cause you see I'm a dinosaur
Should've died a long time before
There's a whole lotta dinosaurs
Give us our hats, excuse me man but where's the door
Get us our hats, excuse me man where's the door

Do Nothin' Till You Hear From Me
Do nothin' till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why one should tear the seam of anyone's dream
It's over my head
Do nothin' till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of others you heard
Baby, i haven't a chance
True i've been seen
With someone new
That doesn't mean
I've been untrue
While we're apart
The words in my heart
Reveal how i feel about you
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothin' till you hear it from me
Baby, you never will

Do What You Gotta Do
Come on back and see me when you can
Man I can understand how it might be
Kinda hard to love a girl like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know
I've loved you better that your own Kin did
From the very start it's my own fault
What happens to my heart
You see I've always known you'd go
So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss
Those sweet lips again, pay that no mind
Find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can
Now I know it'll make you feel sad and make you feel so bad
They say you don't treat me like you should
They got ways to make you feel no good
I guess they got no way to know
I've had my eyes wide open from the start
And man you never lied to me
The part of you that they'll never see
Is the part you've shown to me
So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss
Those sweet lips again, pay that no mind
Find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can
Do what you gotta do
Come on back and see me when you can
Do what you gotta do
Come on back and see me when you can
Just do what you gotta do

Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans
Do you know what it means to miss new orleans
And miss her each night and day
I know i'm not wrong because the feeling's
Getting stronger the longer i stay away
Miss the moss-covered vines, tall sugar pines
Where mockingbirds used to sing
I'd love to see that old lazy mississippi
Running in the spring
Moonlight on the bayous
Creole tunes fill the air
I dream about magnolias in june
And i'm wishin i was there
Do you know what it means to miss new orleans
When that's where you left your heart
And there's one thing more, i miss the one i care for
More than i miss new orleans

If i saw you now
Could i look in your eyes?

Do you wish you were here

Do you love me now?
Does love ever end
When two hearts have torn away?
Or does it go on
And beat strong anyway?
You've loved me before
Do you love me now?
Come back to me right now!
C'mon c'mon come back to me right now!

Does It Float
The rain has washed my dog with fear
A question people think, i call a friend
And the next wave is valentine
See yourself call, no big deal
Ever since that's not a fear
Wishin, the lamp would shine
And beam me at it, give me some fuel
Find a way, to clog it up alone
Terrified, the way you stand
Feeling natural behind the phone
Rain has fallen, the tree does cry
And ? [mumbling...]
And the toads are running free
And ? [mumbling...]
It's no fun to that's what stinks
Bought a carrot and still can't see
You know i've been wating for 6 years
For a ray of hope, leaves me a float
Then i could believe in sunshine
In the winter time, mountains glow
There's always so much to adore
There's a little scenic picture on my skull
See the second building
Imagine, where'd you go
All i wanna know baby
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it float
Does it
Float
Does it
Float
Does
Float
Why
Does it float

Dog
In the fifties when rock and roll was hot
And every time they turned on a radio station
Chuck Berry and Little Richard was all they got
And then one night, they heard the country gentleman
Playing something new in a brand new way
Chet would you play
Still hear him today
Chet you're the reason
We're country today
We only met but never got to know him
Till our first TV special years ago
So then we called and asked him
If he'd come by and do a little picking on our show
And there we sat in front of all America
Like we used to sit in front of our radios
Chet would you play
Still hear him today
Chet you're the reason
We're country today
Chet you're the reason
We're country today

Don Juan d'Bubba
Has Porter Wagoner suits
Got a four wheeler, that's all wrong
Now his palace is a lot
On a rough, rocky top
And a bright red bobo on
He flies the red, white and blue
And I'm telling you
He knows how to honky tonk all night
When he pulls up in his truck
All the guys are out of luck
The girls know his reputation is fine
He's Don Juan D'Bubba
He's got a Spanish mother
But his daddy worked in a coal mine
He cooks squirrel hors d'oeuvres
And he only serves
The very cheapest supermarket wine
Now he's cool as a rule
He's nobody's fool
If there's a party
He's the first to be found
Don Juan D'Bubba
The hillbilly lover
Blue Ribbon country hound
He's a playboy true
And he pitches his woo
To a different girl every night
He's a practical joker
A smooth talkin' stroker
A real man if you want a fight
And when he gets on a roll
He puts on a show
Barnum and Bailey ain't never seen
He is fine and dandy
Handsome and handy
Bubba's in every country girl's dream
He's Don Juan D'Bubba
He's got a Spanish mother
But his daddy worked in a coal mine
He cooks you squirrel hors d'oeuvres
And he only serves
The very cheapest supermarket wine
Now he's cool as a rule
Nobody's fool
Make him the man you don't want to be around
Don Juan D'Bubba
The legendary lover
Blue Ribbon country hound
Don Juan D'Bubba
The legendary lover
Blue Ribbon country hound

Drawerings
I've been thinkin', seein' that's not how it's gotta be
Ain't sayin' if it's worth the fight
I'm a space but you can count on me to save your place
And I know it's all to do with you and me
Do you know if you're against the deal, we'll wait and see
But I'd love to hear that story once again
It's the only part of me you still defend
Did you know I heard your voice?
But when I call to see if you're around, I have no choice
Then the news is in my face
Took a step to let the feeling go and lost my place
And I swear I hear the same thing every night
Once again no one counted for the hours I spent
I baked as anytime I drifted out of sight
Remember when you didn't need this time to mend
Anywhere you'd like to go
Would it help to be inside the life I couldn't know?
If you're shaken it won't show
Hold out for me, 'cause bailin' at this point is really low
And I know it's all to do with just a friend
And I can't decipher messages you send
But I'd love to hear that story once again
It's the only part of me you still defend

Drifting
I see your eyes drifting, drifting
I'm really not that naive
You wear a smile but it's drifting, drifting
While i wear my heart on my sleeve
I feel your coldness against my skin
I know what follows the autumn wind
And though you say your heart isn't drifting, drifting
The words simply don't ring true
You're drifting and i'm losing you

Early in the Morning and Late at Night
She's got magic in her finger tips
She's hot to handle if you know what I mean
She's a long legged loving machine
She's in to pleasin', she knows what I like
Early in the morning and late at night
She's got a way of walking that'll do you in
So if you get to thinking, brother think again
No harm in looking if you understand
She's a one man woman, I'm a one woman man
There's no doubt about it when she holds me tight
Early in the morning and late at night
Early in the morning we rock
Late in the evening we roll
We're in it right from the start
Hearts, bodies and soul
She's cooking up a mess of moves
She keeps alot of love spread on the menu
She's got a man with a big appetite
Early in the morning and late at night
Early in the morning we rock
Late in the evening we roll
We're in it right from the start
Hearts, bodies and souls
Yes sir, she's cooking up a mess of moves
She keeps alot of love on her menu
She's got a man with a big appetite
Early in the morning and late at night
She's hot to handle if you know what I mean
She's a long legged loving machine
She's in to pleasin', she knows what I like
I like it early in the morning and late at night

Easy For You To Say
Says he doesn't want to shine today
You tell me to imagine myself with another lover
That's easy for you to say
The April that I knew with her cool soft rain
Has turned into a flowerless May
You tell me to go on with my life as if nothing's happened
That's easy for you to say
Maybe I should quote the letters that you wrote
I was your Mr. Right, if you recall
You tell me not to do it, but you're not going through it
I guess I'm not so right after all
The melancholy moon is awfully pale
And while his light is dim you seem OK
You tell me there are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea
That's easy for you to say
The melancholy moon is awfully pale
And while his light is dim you seem OK
You tell me there are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea
But the only one I caught just got away
It's easy for you, easy for you
It's all so easy for you to say

Easy to Love
That I'm just wasting precious time
In thinking such a thing could be
That you could ever care for me
I'm know you hate to hear
That I adore you, dear
But grant me just the same
I'm not entirely to blame
For you'd be so easy to love
So easy to idolize all others above
So worth the yearning for
So swell to keep every home fire burning for
We'd be so grand at the game
So carefree together that it does seem a shame
That you can't see your future with me
'Cause you'd be, oh so easy to love

Education In Love
I've been both happy and blue
I've seen the towns and the countryside
But I have never met a girl like you
You're almost perfect
As far as I can see
There's just that final touch of polish
And I've got that you need
An education in love
I bet you know that I'm thinking of
A thorough education in love

Eleven Roses
I chose them from our garden where they grew
Take the roses and look into the mirror
And the twelfth rose will be looking back at you
There's just something about a spray of roses
To a woman, they say more than man can say
After what I've done, you may not keep the roses
But I just thought I would send them anyway
There's just something about a spray of roses
To a woman, they say more than man can say
After what I've done, you may not keep the roses

After what I've done, you may not keep my roses

Endless Sleep
Traced her footsteps down to the shore afraid she's gone for evermore
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice cryin' in deep come join me baby in my endless sleep
Why did we quarrel why did we fight why did I leave her alone tonight
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea that's why my baby has gone from me
I looked at the sea...
Ran in the water heart full of fear there in the breakers I saw her near
Reached for my darling held her to me stole her away from the angry sea
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say you took your baby from me away
My heart cried out she's mine to keep I saved my baby from that endless sleep
Endless sleep endless sleep endless sleep

Eu Protesto
E aquela vida fútil comprou mais um inútil... wwwooo!
Foi você quem colocou eles lá
mas eles não estão fazendo nada por vocês
Enquanto o povo vai vivendo de migalhas
Eles inventam outro imposto pra vocês
Aquela creche que deixaram de ajudar está por um fio
E a ganância está matando a geração 2000
E a sua tolerância está maior do que nunca agora
Dormem sossegados os caras do senado
Dormem sossegados os que fizeram este estrago
Dormem sossegados os caras do senado
Dormem sossegados os que pintaram este quadro
Só você vai saber lidar com o mal que há em você
E o bem que há em você, toda a miséria
Que gera a insegurança imposta a você, que oprime você
(...)
Deixe de ser covarde homem
Deixe de ser covarde
Deixe de ser covarde homem
Seja homem de verdade
Você devia dar uma importância maior
Pras coisas corriqueiras da vida
Você devia dar uma importância maior
Pro que realmente tem valor na sua vida
Dormem bem despreocupados os caras do senado
Dormem(dormem) sossegados os que fizeram este estrago
Mais vale a liberdade
E o bem que ela te faz
Liberdade é tudo aquilo, liberdade é muito mais!
Vem, vem e me traz, mais paz quero, vem, vem, vem e me traz mais...
Paz, eu quero mais paz...
Vem e me traz mais paz...

Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye
Ev'ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little
Why the Gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me, they allow you to go
And when you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it
There's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye
Why the Gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me, they allow you to go
And when you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it

Everyone Gets a Star
I want you to forever know
These guys have all got problems
These guys have all got their problems
Today, you've come, now go away
I know it gets so confusing
Sometimes it all seems to drag me down
Then when I'm getting closer
So close, everything just falls apart
When will you stop and see me through
There's something else I'd rather do
Although you're getting angry
I know everyone gets a star
Today, you've come, now go away
I know it gets so confusing
Sometimes it all seems to drag me down
Then when I'm getting closer
So close, everything just falls apart

Everything Comes Down to Money and Love
House is so quiet
I spent the morning looking for a job
But the job markets pretty tight
And I'm wondering
Just what I'm gonna do
Someone to hold and the rent
I owe are long overdue
Seems like everything comes down
To money and love in my life
It seems like everything comes down
To money and love in my life
I'm used to having a woman around
Cooking for me and when I lay down to love
I got used to having a woman around
Looking to me to rise above
I've got a lonely heart, two open arms
And a pillow I never use
I know it ain't much to offer
But it's the best I can do
Seems like everything comes down
To money and love in my life
I've loved a lot of good women
And I could sure love one now
I've had more than enough money
In my bank account
But where they went and how they got spent
Isn't really clear
They just left me here
And it all disappeared
Sitting in another office Tuesday morning
Application filled
I doubt they'll ever call me
But I can't keep from hoping that they will
I know I need to keep my chin up
But I'm telling you the truth
If there's no one else to live for
Is there anything left to lose?
It seems like everything comes down
To money and love in my life
Seems like everything comes down
To money and love in my life, in my life

Eyes Of The Seeker
I remember what my father said
He said "you don't slow down
You're gonna end up dead"
I remember what my brother said
He said "you're runnin blind
Like a bird flyin into the sun"... yeah
They might be older than me
But the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
Old man with a new brown bag
Washed away his home
Hung over the nag
Threw the ring in the river
At the end of the street
Then he laid on down in the park
With the bag at his feet... yeah
He might think he's really free
But the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
All... all ya'll
Try to push it further
Than you think your life is worth
Or you'll get nowhere
Spendin all your time with the devil
Grind... your mind
'stead of sittin home
Lyin in your bed
Sayin you just don't care... well...
Big daddy from the back of the cell
Said "you wanna last
You gotta run like hell"
But big daddy must been runnin slow
He told me the view's real good
From the top of the row... yeah
It's overcase with an ill decree
And the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see

Faker
Smoking it up, making a scene
She could pass for twenty two
With her sisters out, they make up in tattoos
Love has no feeling, into her innocence they're stealing
And every corner she cuts reaches out and cuts her back
And every little white lie she try to sell turns black as coal
Oh, what a heart breaker to be a failure as a faker
He wants to work in rock and roll
Get all the girls, be a part of the show
Shouldn't jump so he could show his friends
That his act is [Incomprehensible]
But I've got to tell him just how much it scares him
And every corner he cuts reaches out and cuts him back
And every little white lie he try to sell turns black as coal
Oh, what a heart breaker to be a failure as a faker
Said I could not take no more
Our love is a bore, I'm hitting out the door
Even now while looking back
Wondering how long it could have last
So my old heart freezing, in my stomach's a queasing
And every corner I cut reaches out and cuts me back
And every little white lie I try to sell turns black as coal
What a heart breaker I'm a failure as a faker
And every corner I cut reaches out and cuts me back
And every little white lie I try to sell turns black as coal

Falling in Love Again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I can't help it
Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I can't help it
I often stop and wonder
Why I appeal to girls
How many times I blunder
In love and out again
They offer me devotion
I like it I confess
When I reflect emotion
There’s no need to guess
Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I can't help it
Love's always been my game
I play it how I may
I was made that way
I can't help it
I often stop and wonder
Why I appeal to girls
How many times I blunder
In love and out again
Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I can't help it
Love's always been my game
I play it how I may
I was made that way
I can't help it

Falling in Love With Love
To keep my mind off other things
So ladies let your fingers dance
And keep your hands out of romance
Lovely witches wed the stitches
Keep your fingers under control
Cut the thread but leave the whole heart whole
Mary maids can show and sleep
Wise can only sow and weep
Falling in love with love is falling from make believe
Falling in love with love is playing a fool
Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just for children in school
I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes unable to see
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me

Family Tradition
Have always been a real close family
But lately some of my kinfolk
Have disowned a few others and me
I guess it's because
I kinda changed my direction
And Lord, I guess I went
And broke their family tradition
They get on me want to know
Hank, why do you drink?
Hank, why do you roll smoke?
Why must you live out
The songs that you wrote?
Over and over
Everybody met my prediction
So if I get stoned I'm just carryin'
On an old family tradition
I am very proud
Of my daddy's name
Although his kind of music
And mine ain't exactly the same
Stop and think it over
Put yourself in my position
If I get stoned and sing all night long
It's a family tradition
So don't ask me
Hank, why do you drink?
Hank, why do you roll smoke?
Why must you live out
The songs that you wrote?
If I'm down in a honky tonk
Some old slicks trying to give my friction
I say leave me alone I'm singin' all night long
It's a family tradition
Lordy, I have loved some ladies
And I have loved Jim Beam
And they both tried to kill me in 1973
When my doctor asked me
"Son, how'd you get in this condition?"
I said "Hey sawbones, I'm just carryin' on
An old family tradition"
So don't ask me
Hank, why do you drink?
Hank why do you roll smoke?
Why must you live out
The songs that you wrote?
Stop and think it over
Try to put yourself in my unique position
If I get stoned and sing all night long
It's a family tradition

Finders Are Keepers
I took a gamble and just lookie here what I got.
A diamond in the middle in a field full of stone.
And I'm bettin' everything I got that you can keep me comin' home.
Finders are Keepers
And I'm keeping you as long as I can.
Finders are Keeepers
So baby don't ever stop just keep on holdin' my hand.
A needle in a haystack would be easy to do
Compared to me finding somebody else like you.
I tell ya chasing the perfect woman is just like rolling the dice,
She's as pretty as a natural eleven and I'm puttin' my heart on the line.
Finders are Keepers
And I'm keeping you as long as I can.
Finders are Keeepers
So baby don't ever stop just keep on holdin' my hand.
Finders are Keeepers
So baby keep on keepin' on with your lovin' man.

Fly Trouble
With somethin' circlin' around your head?
And you swot at it as it whizzes by
And it's just one pesky little fly
You shake your head and you twitch your nose
And settle down to sweet repose
Then when you're just about the dose, fly trouble
Buzz buzz buzz
Goes that busy little fly
Buzz buzz buzz
He's takin' off and high
You roll a paper an' nice and tight
And you wait around for him to light
But there's a fly just livin' right
Buzz buzz buzz
Now the toughest hide grows on the mule
'Cause he's a balky stubborn fool
Well, he likes to look at you and glare
An' never even move a hare
But when his muscles start to twitch
And when his tail begins to switch
That mule ain't bothered with the itch, fly trouble
Buzz buzz buzz
Goes that busy little pest
Buzz buzz buzz
That mule can't get no rest
He shakes his head and bats his eye
And kicks his heels up to the sky
Did you ever see a jazz that cry
Buzz buzz buzz
Now you pick a perfect night in June
When flowers are bloomin' 'neath the moon
Your light of love is burnin' bright
And you tell yourself tonight's the night
You brace yourself and your courage grows
And you're on your knees where you propose
When something bites you on the nose, fly trouble
Buzz buzz buzz
Goes that busy little thing
Buzz buzz buzz
You swot and lose the ring
You fan the air as he goes by
And stick your finger in your eye
Hit every thing except that fly
Buzz buzz buzz

Follow The Music
They tried to conquer the world with guns
Like a horde of huns
That had to be removed
We used a secret weapon
We did it with a groove
They tried to conquer the world with administration
And make one nation
But then they had to move
We made us a home
Built on a groove
They tried to conquer the world with kindness
And blind open-mindedness
Like they had something to prove
They're on their own
Amen, we got the groove
They tried to conquer the world and call it art
So did bonaparte
Now he hangs in the louvre
It's not a museum piece
This is the groove

Footlights
Most men only dream of
I make my living writing songs
And singin' them
I'm a whole lot older now
And there's still no place to go when it's over
So I'll hide my age and make the stage
And try to kick the footlights out again
I throw my old guitar across the stage
And watch my bassman takes the ball
And the crowd goes nearly wild
To see my guitar nearly fall
After twenty years of pickin'
We're still alive and kickin' down the wall
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out
Walk away without a curtain call
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again
And try to hide the mood we're really in
Might not put on our old instamatic grins
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again, kick 'em out
I live a kind of life
Most men only dream of
And I make my living writing songs
And singin' them

For Heaven's Sake
It’s no mistake to call it love
An angel’s holding hands with me
How heavenly heaven can be
Here is romance for us to try
Here is the chance we can’t deny
While heaven’s giving us the break
Let’s fall in love for heaven’s sake
Don’t say a word, my darling
Don’t break the spell like this
Just hold me tight, we’re alone in the night
And heaven is here in a kiss
This pair of eyes can see a star
So paradise can’t be so far
Since heaven’s what we’re dreaming of
For heaven’s sake, let’s fall in love
Don’t say a word, my darling
Don’t break the spell like this
Just hold me tight, we’re alone in the night
And heaven is here in a kiss
This pair of eyes can see a star
So paradise can’t be so far
Since heaven’s what we’re dreaming of
For heaven’s sake, let’s fall in love

For Once in My Life
Someone I've needed so
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dream come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say, "This is mine, you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
Now, for once I can say, "This is mine, you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life, she needs me
For once in my life

Forever For Now
I'll have a song in my head
And my hands on a tune
Nothing lasts forever
So I figure I better
Take you forever
For now
Meet me in the lobby of destiny
I'll have a ribbon on my shoulders
And a halo over me
If nothing lasts forever
I guess I better
Take you forever
For now
Under a clock
By an information desk
I'll be there will bells on
By an old oak
A fountain in the park
Just don't be long
By the ticket counter for love in spring
I'll be standin' there with cupid
And he can aim that thing
Nothing lasts forever
It's not a question of whether
I'll take you forever

Forever, For Now
Meet me on the corner of close and soon
I'll have a song in my head
And my hands on a tune
Nothing lasts forever
So I figure I better
Take you forever
For now
Meet me in the lobby of destiny
I'll have a ribbon on my shoulders
And a halo over me
If nothing lasts forever
I guess I better
Take you forever
For now
Under a clock
By an information desk
I'll be there will bells on
By an old oak
A fountain in the park
Just don't be long
By the ticket counter for love in spring
I'll be standin' there with cupid
And he can aim that thing
Nothing lasts forever
It's not a question of whether
I'll take you forever
For now

Forget The Swan
It's floating through the abyss
Under the brig my head swings down
Beware her wrath, the image gone
The shell is crumbling, fix my frown
This spell would be clear in non-tradition
And stepping on these pieces of pain and smirk
And rape goes through to sin my eyes
And shapes know where the heartache will lurk
Forget the swan, a stone swims near
A stone has come, if i could cheer
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
Drifting among this rubble
I guess the waiting, wished i would
I found a box, untethered and true
Possession it understood
Forget the swan, a stone swims near
A stone has come, if i could cheer
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
How i tried to warn my neighbor
But the corn was much too high
In confusion up and threw him, woke up every day
But it's not too late brother, i'll still say you were mine
Forget the swan, a stone swims near
A stone has come, if i could cheer
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
Forget the swan, the dreams are gone
The pain goes on, they fly at dawn
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
Forget the swan

Freakscene
Freak scene
Seen enough to eye you
But i've seen to much to try you
It's always weirdness while you
Dig it much too much to fry you
The weirdness flows between us
Anyone can tell to see us
Freak scene just can't believe us
Why can't it just be cool and free us?
Seen enough to eye you
But i've seen to much to try you
It's always weirdness while you
Dig it much too much to fry you
The weirdness flows between us
Anyone can tell to see us
Freak scene just can't believe us
Why can't it just be cool and leave us?
It's so fucked i can't believe it
If there's a way i wish we'd see it
How could it work just can't conceive it
Oh what a mess it's just to leave it
Sometimes i don't thrill you
Sometimes i think i'll kill you
Just don't let me fuck up will you
'cause when i need a friend it's still you
What a mess

From The Rio Grande
Cause I'm about to sing my song
I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
But my legs ain't bowed, and my cheeks ain't tan
Well I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow
Never roped a steer 'cause I don't know how
And I sure ain't fixin' to startin now
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
And I learned to ride before I learned to stand
Well I'm a ridin fool who is up to date
I know every trail in the Lone Star State
'Cause I ride the range in a Ford V-8
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
Look out, I'm gonna show y'all how to ride now
Here we go
I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
And I come to town just to hear the band
I know all the songs that the cowboys know
'Bout the big corral where the dogies go
'Cause I learned them all on the radio
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
Now my story's almost done, so listen up!
You ain't got much longer now
I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
Where the west is wild round the borderland
Where the buffalo roam around the zoo
And the indian make you a rug or two
And the old Bar-X is the Bar-be-cue
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
I'm just an old cowhand...

Frosty The Snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the Snowman
Is a fairytale, they say
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic
In that old silk they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
Frosty the Snowman
Was alive as he could be
Dns the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
Frosty the Snowman
Knew the sun was hot that day
So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun
Now before I melt away"
Down to the village
With a brooomstick in his hand
Running here and there, all around the square,
Sayin', "Catch me if you can"
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment
When he heard him holler, "Stop!"
Frosty the Snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't you cry,
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
He'll be back
Yes he will
Again someday
See you next year Frosty!

Games People Play
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they mean
So they while away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till there covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine
Talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Oh, we make one another cry
Break our heart then we say goodbye
'Cause our heart say we hope to die
Let the other one to blame
Neither one will ever give in
So were gazing at an 8 by 10
Thinking bout the way
It might have been
Its a dirty, rotten, shame
Talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
People walking up to ya
Sayin' glory, hallelujah
And they try to sock it to ya
In the name of the Lord
They gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your faith
And furthermore to hell with hate
Come on and get on board
Talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Look around tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To remember who I am
'Cause your giving up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
And you don't give a damn
Talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play

Gargoyle
I see you every once in a while
Forget where i was standing stood
Eyes glazed with apprehension
Could it ever have been that good
The virgin's escaping
Will is fading
Another couple locks ones attention
How did i believe this fool
Non-stop degradation waiting until
Nothing can ever be the same
The virgin's escaping
Will is fading
Everyone tries their hand at love
It's just up to hope that all in amour
Everyone in which you've found
Best known by it's ? cure
I see you every once in a while
Forget where i was standing stood
Eyes glazed with apprehension
Could it ever have been that good
Will is fading

Georgia on My Mind
I sing for my
Georgia, Georgia
The whole day through
This old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
Hey, Georgia, oh, yeah, yeah, Georgia
And a song of you
Comes as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly, yeah
Still in peaceful dreams I see
On another road, it leads back to you
Hey, Georgia, I say oh, Georgia
No, no, no peace I find girly
Just an old sweet song, God is this song long
Keeps Georgia on my mind
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
Busy road, the road leads back to you now
Oh, Georgia, don't do that, had to know well
No peace I find, won't you hear me now
It's just an old sweet song, I said, oh, I said that
Keeps Georgia on my mind
On my mind, yeah, it won't be so
Keeps Georgia on my mind
You know the little girls that are on my mind
Yes, it is

Get Me
I don't know enough to stall you
Is it me, or is it all you?
Guess, it's on and on
On a day, maybe I'd show you
But it's the least of all I go through
But the thing is I don't know you
And it's on and on
The trembling words, don't make my eyes close
And if anyone then you'd know I can't find out
'Cause it won't show
And it's on and on
Well, every dream is shot by daylight
And I pray that maybe you're right
But if you don't, maybe I might
'Cause it's on and on
When it takes too long I lose it
I'll just hang while you abuse it
If you knew then why'd you choose it
'Cause it's on and on
You're not gonna get me through this, are you?
You're not gonna get me through this, are you?
Well, anytime I'm there to show you
But if it takes too long I know you
Out the door just leavin' me screwed
And it's on and on
Well, everytime I try to fight it
It's so hard to seem excited
And if you don't turn, I'll bite it
And it's on and on
You're not gonna get me through this, are you?
You're not gonna get me through this, are you?
Well, I don't see you, I won't call you
I don't know enough to stall you
Is it me or is it all you?
Yes, it's on and on
Well, every dream is shot by daylight
And I pray maybe that you're right
But if you don't, maybe I might
'Cause it's on and on

Gettin Rough
I know you're waiting
I'm through relating
I've had enough
I'm sick of reading
My interest fading
It's looking up
I know i've been that way too long
It's beyond useless
Tide over
It's getting slower
Time for a change
Falls the prison
Don't wanna live in
Expand my range
I know i've been that way too long
I know it's useless
The charm is gone
Time to move on
I'm ready now
The questions, how?
I'll keep on pushin'
Throw out the cushion
I needed to do this
Beyond the darkness
There must be one kiss
So give me hope
I know i've been that way too long
Get the move on

Give Nothing Away
And you still will not give one back to me
You never have good apology
And your hooves never wrap all the way around me
And if you want something you gotta give something
You can't take nothing if you don't give nothing away
Sometimes at the movies if I buy you a soda
You do sit just a little bit closer
And while we're all spending my money
Sometimes you do smile but I get mad
If you want something you gotta give something
You can't take nothing if you don't give nothing away
Would you share with me?
And whatever I got is never enough [Incomprehensible]
I feel so special when you are close to me
And if you cared it all for me
You would swear to God that you hated me
And send me away with [Incomprehensible]
If you want something you gotta give something
You can't take nothing if you don't give nothing away
If you want something you gotta give something
You can't take nothing if you don't give nothing away
If you want something you gotta give something
You can't take nothing if you don't give nothing away
When nothing free would you share with me?
And now for something completely different

God
He had lost four fingers, he had faded tattoos
I asked him one day to whom do killers pray
He said to me as he looked away
God don’t even know my name
For I live my whole life in shame
God is in me and God is in you
And God’s love has been abused
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
Had to fight a baptist preacher who had drank too much
He took a swing at me but I ducked his punch
I pushed him to the ground and as he rose out of the dirt
I said, "Why does a preacher man have so much hurt?"
'Cause God don’t even know my name
For I live my whole life in shame
God is in me and God is in you
And God’s love has been abused
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
I once spoke to God and He made me cry
He said, "I could come to heaven any time"
He did not mind, He forgave my crime
I once loved a Ballerina who was narrow and mean
She believed in nothing but her cable TV
She cussed and she cursed, she swore that Jesus was dead
If God did not damn her, I wonder who did
God don’t even know my name
For I live my whole life in shame
God is in me and God is in you
And God’s love has been abused
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name
God don’t even know my name

Goin Home
I don’t see you hanging around, I’m goin’ home
But if that’s all you ever tell me
Seems you don’t wanna be found, and I’m goin’ home
And don’t come over, I can’t get lower
No more meetin’, well, I've been beaten
Got a blast of what I should be busy doing
Yes, I’m lost
I’m goin’ home
I want to tell you that I miss you
But I’m pissed you, blew me off, I’m goin’ home
No more meetin’, I've been beaten
If you go ahead fake it, I can’t shake it
I breath all alone
I need nothing, I can do
By the pound with the tension’s mountin’
Wrapped around me feelin’ tight, I’m goin’ home
But if you're castin’ out some psycho
You’ll need me, tantrum, I won’t bite, I’m goin’ home
On a day that’s burnin’ this crazed
Don’t tempt me ’cause I might, I’m goin’ home
If it’s gonna be the last time
Well, then maybe it’s alright, I’m goin’ home
Well, it’s inside, but go ahead fight it
Well, I’ve about had it, go ahead grab it
Well, I can’t take it, go ahead fake it
I breath all alone for you
I need and you know it’s true
I breath all alone for you
I need nothin’, I can do
And people tell me that you miss me
And I guess I’m doin’ fine

Golden Ticket / I Want It Now
I never thought my life could be anything but catastrophe
But suddenly I begin to see a bit of good luck for me
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
I never had a chance to shine never a happy song to sing,
But suddenly half the world is mine what an amazing thing
Cause I've got a golden ticket.
I've got a golden sun up in the sky.
I never thought I'd see the day when I would face the world and say,
"Good morning. Look at the sun."
I never thought that I would be slap in the lap of luxury
Cause I have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done.
I never dreamed that I would climb over the moon in ecstasy,
But nevertheless it's there that I'm shortly about to be
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with the golden ticket it's a golden day.
I want a feast
I want a bean feast
Give to me now!
I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and
Give it to me now.
I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter
Ten thousand ton of ice cream
And if I don't get the things I am after
I'm going to scream!
I want the works,
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes,
And now!
Don't care how I want it now!

Good Hearted Woman
The good life he promised, ain't what she's living today
But she never complains of the bad times
And the bad things he's done Lord
She just talks about the good times they've had
And all the good times to come
She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves him in spite of his ways she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
He likes the bright lights and night life and good timin' friends
And when the party's all over, she'll welcome him back home again
Lord knows she don't understand him but she does the best that she can
This a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves me in spite of my wicked ways that she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves me in spite of my wicked [incomprehensible] ways
But then she don't understand

Gotta Know
I (looked) all around
Opem my eyes i found
You crying, crying on the ground
If i told you then
Now, were you listening?
Now just tell me where, can't pretend
Slippin' through my mind
Letting go this time
Will i find you?
It's a special place
It's been hard to taste
If you let me, it won't go to waste
If i let you go, will i ever know
Cause i gotta know, gotta know
You've been through my mind
Letting go this time
Need to find
When i helped you close
Felt my mind explode
At that point, that point my whole life froze
Can't go back from here
Feelings far from fear
It's over, take my hand, we'll disappear
I looked all around
Open my eyes i found
You crying, crying on the ground
If i told you then
Were you listening?
Now just tell me where, i can't pretend
It's a special place
It's been hard to taste
If you met me, it won't go to waste
If i let you go, will i ever know?
Cause i gotta know, gotta know
We've been through my mind
Not letting go this time
Still not fine

Grab It
Who was willing Got to assume Felt too hard Pain is chilling Caught off guard And now should I fall apart I'll be in your room You'll be comin' soon Take it out of me Grab it, that's your scene I'm not feeling well It's not goin' so good, oh can't you tell It's a crazy time Fire one off at me and I'll be fine In your room Who was willing Got to assume Felt too hard Pain is chilling Caught off guard Soon should I fall apart It's so crazed You were swingin' Still amazed What's in your laugh ? You're still swingin' You're so unphased I'd no idea you'd go this far [Solo] If I look back, would you hear If that's what you decide to believe

Green Mind
Then go back to it another day
The green mind said it's okay
'Cause you know where they're gonna be
All's you have to do is come with me
It's cool, they're probably asleep
On the outside, that's where they always hide
Come to my side
And I'll introduce you to some of their kind
I know you've always tried
And now it's your time to take in their point of view
Oh, it's nothing new
I been bouncing off the wall, I can't handle them for long
They're cool, but I need you
On a certain level I think they're great
But on another I can't relate to anything they do
On the outside, might be with them tonight
Unless you decide to come in, I'll check on you
Hangin' heavy, such a routine
I've just begun to forget why I seldom try to break out of their scene
And now I gotta work on you
So the frogs will hang, they'll always be hangin'
Now we're here, what do we do?
I've been sortin' through the pros and cons of your eyes
They're well told can't you help move it along?
I been pickin' through my thoughts
It's a shame I just can't rot and I sure feel rotten long
On the outside, well, it'll be a while
I gotta unfry 'fore I pick it up with you
Help me
Do I need that stable care?
Don't I know that they'll be there?
Does that count, now you've appeared?
Do I need that stable [Incomprehensible]?
Or do I jump for something more?
Are you all that I fear?
I been pickin' through my thoughts
It's a shame I just can't rot and I sure feel rotten long
It's a call that's tough to make it could be a big mistake
Can't you help move it along?
If I keep stewin' 'bout how I feel
The plate will split, then I won't have to deal, sounds like a plan
But it's kind of lame to let it slide, knowin' either way I haven't tried

Guess What That's Right She's Gone
A cold chill's a comin' all over and tears are fillin' my eyes
Guess what that's right she's gone
The days will turn into weeks the weeks will turn into years
And I'm turnin' into a block of stone I can't see for my tears
Guess what that's right she's gone
The train left town this morning guess who waved goodbye
A cute little trig in a bridal red dress and a man with a little bowtie
My mind is spinnin' in circles I'm about to go insane
Like a fool I'm a runnin' down the railroad track I'm tryin' to stop that train
Guess what that's right she's gone
[ ac.guitar ]
The train left town this morning...
Guess what you're right she's gone guess what that's right she's gone

Guys and Dolls
A picture about a Minnesota man falls in love with a Mississippi girl
That he sacrifices everything and moves all the way to Biloxi
That's what's playing at the Roxy
What's in the daily news? I'll tell you what's in the daily news
Story about a man bought his wife, a small ruby
With what otherwise would have been his union dues
That's what's in the daily news
What's happening all over? I'll tell you what's happening all over
Guy sitting home by a television set
That used to be something of a rover
That's what's happening all over
Love is the thing that has nipped them
And it looks like Nathan's just another victim
Nicely spoken
Yes, sir
When you see a guy reach for stars in the sky
You can bet that he's doing it for some doll
When you spot a John waiting out in the rain
Chances are he's insane as only a John can be for a Jane
When you meet a gent paying all kinds of rent
For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal
Call it sad, call it funny but it's better than even money
That the guy's only doing it for some doll
When you see a Joe saving half of his dough
You can bet there'll be mink in it for some doll
When a bum buys wine like a bum can't afford
It's a cinch that the bum is under the thumb of some little broad
When you meet a mug lately out of the jug
And he's still lifting platinum [Unverified]
Call it hell, call it heaven but it's probable twelve to seven
That the guy's only doing it for some doll
When you see a sport and his cash has run short
Make a bet that he's banking it with some doll
When a guy wears tails with the front gleaming white
Who the hell do you think he's tickling pink on Saturday night?
When a lazy slob takes a goody steady job
And he smells from Vitalis and Barbasol
Call it dumb, call it clever, ah, but you can get odds forever
That the guy's only doing it for some doll
Some doll, some doll, the guy's only doing it for some doll

Half as Much
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never feel this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
If you love me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never feel this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you

Hard to Live in the City
Yes, it's hard to live, so hard to live in the city
I've been following you for blocks
And I wish that you would stop and tell me your name
But I couldn't understand
What you told me as you ran away
So just lay your head down low
Don't let anybody know
That it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city
Yes, it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city
There's something about you that I couldn't tell
And you were always crazy and I didn't like that
There's something about you that I knew so well
To all those questions, I have no answers
I wish that I could sit in the sun
So just lay your head down low
Don't let anybody know
That it's hard to live, it's hard to live in the city
Yes, it's hard to live, so hard to live in the city
What are you asking? No need for walking out
You took all I could keep
You couldn't even tell me, the look was on you face
I'll think that we have left
To all those questions, I have no answers
I wish that I could sit in the sun

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
Here we are, as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years, we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

He Is They Are
He is good
They are happy
He is strong
They are secure
He is right
They are unquestioning
He is wrong
They are demure
When she left
He was tortured
She was gone
They were confused
He was forgetful
They were supportive
He was funny
They were amused
He did things that only superman could do
Things that sis and i could not believe were true
He is older
They are loving
He is hardened
They are grown
He is needing
They are giving
He is glad they are his own

Hear Me In The Harmony
The city don't even matter
I could be anywhere
I don't care
There's a whole lotta hard workin people
That could take my place
And it's easy to leave
When nobody knows your face
Just close your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I came up in new orleans
Fixin what i could find
To peace my mind
I gave what i had to the winners
Just to get along
But it's really hard to sing
When nobody hears your song
Just close your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I thought i learned from getting burned
I bought a suit of armor and a silver cane
I found a little man who'd be proud of me
But he had to get up early
And i had to get back to my pain
I guess i'll keep on livin
One day they'll ask for me
I'll be free
And if there's a heaven
I'll be ready for my life to begin
But i wonder if i call
If they're gonna let me in
Open your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony

Heart Beyond Repair
Unrequited, not renowned
Never sought and never found
Through blood
Through soul
Now unfamiliar
Feelings of good being
Are light that's not worth seeing
Through blood
Through soul
Restless and distorted
Thoughts that underscore my night
Being wrong and seeing right
Through blood
Through soul
Heart beyond repair
All the edges worn and frayed
Magnifying love betrayed
Through blood
Through soul

Heartattack and Vine
White spades hangin' on the telephone wire
Gamblers reevaluate along the dotted line
You'll never recognize yourself on Heartattack and Vine
Doctor, lawyer, beggar, man, thief
Philly Joe Remarkable looks on in disbelief
If you want a taste of madness you'll have to wait in line
You'll probably see someone you know on Heartattack and Vine
Boney's high on china white, Shorty found a punk
Don't you know there ain't no devil? There's just God when he's drunk
Well this stuff will probably kill you, let's do another line
What you say you meet me down on Heartattack and Vine
See that little Jersey girl in the see-through top
With the peddle pushers, sucking on a soda pop
Well I bet she's still a virgin but it's only twenty-five 'til nine
You can see a million of 'em on Heartattack and Vine
Better off in Iowa, against your scrambled eggs
Than crawling down Cahuenga on a broken pair of legs
You'll find your ignorance is blissful every goddamn time
Your're waitin' for the RTD on Heartattack and Vine
Boney's high on china white, Shorty found a p-punk
Don't you know there ain't no devil? There's just God when he's drunk
Well this stuff will probably kill you, let's do another line
What you say you meet me down on Heartattack and Vine
Liar liar with your pants on fire
White spades hangin' on the telephone wire
Gamblers reevaluate along the dotted line
You'll never recognize yourself on Heartattack and Vine
Doctor, lawyer, beggar, man, thief
Philly Joe Remarkable looks on in disbelief
If you want a taste of madness you'll have to wait in line
You'll probably see someone you know on Heartattack and Vine

now all I'm thinking of

a permanent vacation
and I just know that I
oh I - I just gotta get out of here
coz I'm left - behind

Heaven Can't Be Found
I looked over at my pillow but your face wasn't there
and I don't smell the perfume you used to wear.......
And I don't see your blouse or jeans or your pretty white cotton gown
And I've looked all over hell...... but heaven can't be found
I've called and looked in every place you used to hang around
I've searched in every bar and club and honky tonk in town......
And I don't know if I can go on without breaking down
I've looked all over hell.....but heaven can't be found
I looked on the bedside table but your jewelry was all gone
And I just wish you'd call me every time I look at the phone.....
I looked in our dressing mirror and I saw myself break down
Oh I've looked all over hell......but heaven can't be found
I've called and looked in every place you used to hang around
I've searched in every bar and club and honky tonk in town......
And I don't know if I can go on without breaking down
I've looked all over hell.....but heaven can't be found

Heavenly
He's always smiling
He never looks mean
Even when the sun comes in between
The man in the moon is smiling
'Cause he's in love
The man in the moon is smiling
'Cause he's in love with the girl in the world
She's there in the evening
She never comes late
All day she spins around
But never makes him wait
The girl in the world is smiling
'Cause she's in love
The girl in the world is smiling
'Cause she's in love with the man in the moon
When two heavenly bodies glow
All the stars agree
A planet might be born
Maybe even a galaxy
And in the morning
They don't say good-bye
But with a kiss
They blend into the sky
Oh, they're smiling
'Cause they're in love
The man in the moon is smiling
'Cause he's in love with the girl in the world
The man in the moon is smiling
'Cause he's in love with the girl in the world
Heavenly!

You're lookin' swell, Dolly, I can tell, Dolly
You're still glowin', you're still crowin', you're still goin' strong
We feel the room swayin' while the band's playin'
One of your old favorite songs from way back when
So, take her wrap fellas, find her an empty lap, fellas
Dolly won't never ever go away again
Hey, hello Dolly, well, hello Dolly

Here Comes The Big Parade
Step aside
The krewe's gonna take a ride
Better stand behind the barricade
Here comes, here comes, here comes
The big parade
So make way
So make way
That's what the captain say
Down st. charles and esplanade
Here comes
The big parade
"throw me somethin mister"
I wanna dance with your sister
Brass bands marchin by
Throwing notes to the sky
There goes
There goes
Second-liners and flambeaus
I'm feelin even better
Than the day was made
Here comes
Here comes
Here comes

Here Lies Love
Wail a blue from holly
Oh, my tragedy
Like a misery meant for only me
While I linger weary 'neath a willow tree
Right here our romance was started
Here again we parted
When I set you free
All my thoughts are jumbled
And everything is blurred
Oh, all the world has crumbled, shattered by a word
The end has come, my heart is numb
It was like a volt from the blue above
I can’t believe it but you’re gone, darling
And here lies love
The sky is dark and I hear a lark
He sounds as sad as a mournful dove
The dew appears like the tears of dawn
Darling, for here lies love
All my dreams lost beyond recall
Dreams of spring blessed within the fall
You gave lips, you gave arms, I gave all
I ought to cry, my eyes are dry
There’s only one thing I’m conscious of
I only know that I can’t go on
Darling, here lies love
The end has come and my heart is numb
It was like a volt from the blue above
I can’t believe it but you’re gone, darling
And here lies love
I only know that I can’t go on
Darling, for here lies love

Hide
Don't you want it inside? What could be left to hide? [Solo] You know it hurts me To see those people hangin' 'round you all the time It sure seems lonesome But you're still hangin' there, it's messin' with my mind You can't expect much Not so out of touch If I ask again Nothing I'll defend But I can pretend I walked over and we smile and all the rest Where we take up Is where I wake up It's a two ton weight that's wrapped around my chest I just knew it Can't get through it And now it's finally just inches from my eye I can't place it Still can't waste it When you stomp on the last thing I've left to try Is where I wake up

Hold What You've Got
Hold on to what you got
You had a better hold on
Hold on to what you got
'Cause if you think nobody wants it
Just throw it away and you will see
Someone will have it before you can count
1,2,3, yes they will, yes they will
Listen fellas, you know, it's not all the time
That a man can have a good woman
A woman that he can call his very own
A woman who'll stay right there at home
And mind the children while he's gone to work
A woman who'll have his dinner cooked when he comes home
Where some men make mistakes is
When they go out and stay because they feel
That no other man wants his woman but him, but listen
If you think no other man wants her
Just throw her away and you will see
Some man will have her before you can count
1, 2, 3, yes, they will, yes, he will
Ha ha, listen girls this goes for you, too
Because you know I've seen so many women
Who've had so many good men in life
Men who would stand by 'em through thick and thin
Men who would go to work everyday
And bring home their hard earned pay
Men who would give their women
Anything that their little heart desired
Where some women make mistakes
Is when their men go out and let 'em play
They would stay because they felt that no other
Woman wanted him but her, listen
If you think that no other woman wants him
Just pitch him out in the streets and you will see
Some woman will have your man, before you can count
1,2,3, yes, you will, yes you will

Honestly Now
Either you stand for something
Or you get knocked down for nothing
Sister don't ache too soon
I thought it was understood
By everyone in this room
Who'd ever come up short or won a race
Safety's just danger
...out of place
Truly now...
People play tricks of the mind
Shadows only follow behind
Sister stay still
I thought it was the nature
Of all on malvern's hill
Who'd taken a lead off third base
Safety's just danger
...out of place
Honestly now...
If fate were to follow fortune
And clarity trail distortion
Sister on alert
Pay close attention
To fingerprints in the dust
And fallen feet that leave no trace
Safety's just danger
...out of place
Sincerely now...
I requested information
At a roadside station
Sister it seems absurd
To be hammering pith
Like a poet with a loss for words
Trying to describe an angel's face
Safety's just danger
...out of place
Honestly now...
Wholly in demand
Coming off second hand
Sister don't unravel
When there's nowhere to go
Except lawless travel
And an end to infinity's space
Safety's just danger
...out of place

Honky Tonk Women
She tried to get me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
But I just can't seem to drink you off my mind
It's just that honky tonk woman
Hey, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's just that honky tonk woman
Hey, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

I had to put up some kind of a fight
And that lady then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

I love you but that's the way that it goes
So it goes, guess, you know how I feel
So it goes, you just couldn't be real
And we know it's strong and I don't think it's gonna go on
When I come home carrying my shoes
I've been waiting to tell you some news
And you won't be home all night
You don't want another fight
But she better love
Find some love
You better love me
It's not [Incomprehensible]
Yes, you loved me and you stole my clothes
I love you baby, that's the way that it goes
So it goes, yes, you know how I feel

You just don't want another fight
But you better love me
Find some love, then love me, baby
It's not [Incomprehensible]

Hotel Whiskey
Daddy died so young and I had to help momma get by
So I learned how to sing those songs
I learned how to honky-tonk moan
And I learned how to sleep in a different bed every night
Sometimes we slept in the car
Lots of times we slept in some old bar
Well then we got a bus and we thought we were flyin' real high
But the best place I ever stayed
Where I really learned how sing and how to play
I got the good times on my mind at The Hotel Whiskey
Lord, I wanna go back down there to Hotel Whiskey
Oh I wanna drink and dance and watch the ladies prance and get frisky
Yes I do
No, I'm not gonna worry about drivin' a car
I'll go up and get a room and bring my old guitar
I got the good times on my mind down there at Hotel Whiskey
I'm not a kid anymore but this ain't no mid-life crisis
Because whiskey and women have always been my vices
I'm gonna buy a drink and take it to the band
And talk to that gal that's got my heart in her hand
I got the good times on my mind down there at Hotel Whiskey
Lord, I wanna go back down to Hotel Whiskey
I'm gonna drink and dance and watch the women prance and get frisky
Oh, yes indeed
No, I'm not gonna worry about drivin' a car
I got a bottle and a room and my old guitar
I got the good times on my mind down at The Hotel Whiskey
What do you say Clint?
Hank, before I die I wanna tie one on
And go with you and listen to them songs
I got the good times on my mind
Yeah, well, let's blow it out one more time
Well Hank, let's all go unwind down at The Hotel Whiskey

House of Gold
For wealth and what it will buy
But don't they know on the Judgment Day
All the gold and silver will melt away
I'd rather be in a deep dark grave
And know that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul
What good is gold and silver too
If your heart's not good and true
Sinner hear me when I say
Fall down on your knees and pray
For I'd rather be in a deep dark grave
And know that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and doom my soul

How Do Ya'll Know
Standin on top of my hill
How do ya'll know what it feels like
How can you tell me to make my bed
When i sleep on the ground
How can you say that you like my noise
When i haven't made a sound
I like peace time better than war
Spendin my money in the candy store
I like makin angels on the shore
How do ya'll know
Floatin on my cloud
How do ya'll know what it feels like
Yellin your sermon from the bottom of a glass
'cause you know how it's done
Tellin me the troubles of the promised land
When i'm in it just for fun
I like to eat my pie before my meal
Make a snake with an orange peel
Say my prayers before i kneel
How do ya'll know
When i was walkin past your house
I didn't see nobody home
Ya'll musta been out buyin gold
When i was polishin chrome
Ridin in my spaceship
How do ya'll know what it feels like
What makes you think you can navigate
When you don't know where i'm flyin
Tellin me the facts about what i say
When you don't even know if i'm lyin
I like to wear white in the wintertime
Pay my penance before the crime
Have my reason without the rhyme
But how do ya'll know

But you brightened up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways [G C7 G C7]
I want to stop and thank you baby [G C7]
I want to stop and thank you baby [G]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [C Am D7 G G7]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [C Am D7 G C7]
You were better for me than I was for myself [G C7]
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else [G C7]
I want to stop and thank you baby [G C7]
I just want to stop and thank you baby [G]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [C Am D7 G G7]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [C Am D7 G C7]

How'd You Pin That One on Me
Hey, what's that got left behind?
Tension running, how? What for?
Don't think I'm into you anymore
Falling off the pace
Run into you 'most every place
And I hardly go outside
Let's take a little ride
I don't know, man, you decide
How'd you pin that one on me?
Haven't even done it yet
How can that be?
My move or do I chuck it?
Stare it in the face or duck it
Get me a bucket I disappear I would agree
That's a distinct possibility
Wrap my leg around the table
I'll make a trip when I'm more stable
Gotta cut that one leg free
Hobblin' around, hold out for me
I'll leave the house when I'm less scared
Don't make me go, I'm not prepared
Hey, what's on your mind?
Hey, what's that got left behind?
Was it me you saved that for?
What's down at the core?
Hey, I seen that look before
Weren't you using that on me?
Do you slap that glaze
On every guy you see?
My move or do I chuck it?
Stare it in the face or duck it
Get me a bucket
I don't know why you see me
I don't know a thing to be
My move or do I chuck it?
Stare it in the face or duck it
Get me a bucket

How's My Ex Treating You
Has she had time to find someone new?
Any day now will be her last, son, I know well from the past
'Cause I was once, once there too, how's my ex treating you?
Like the sand she moves with the tide
Your two arms will never keep her satisfied
She'll use you just the way she used me too
But up till now, how's my ex, how's my ex treating you?
Like the sand she moves with the tide
Your two arms will never keep her satisfied
She'll use you just the way she used me too
But up till now, how's my ex, how's my ex treating you?

I Ain't Got Nobody
And I'm so sad and lonely
Won't somebody take a chance with me
I'll sing sweet love songs, honey, all the time
If you'll come and be my sweet baby, mine
I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me
I ain't got nobody, nobody much
Nobody cares for me
I'm so sad and lonely, because I'm homely
Won't somebody take a chance with me
I'll sing sweet love songs, honey, all of the time
If you'll come and be my sweet baby, mine
I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me

I Can Take Anything
Your lying lips don't bother me they still bring me happiness
And I don't see all the things other people say you do
I can take anything but losing you
I can take anything cause I'm living for that day
You get tired of running round and come back in my arms to stay
I don't care how long you treat me like you do I can take anything but losing you
I can take anything cause my heart's learned to live
Oh what you used to be and the love you used to give
How do I take it now knowing I'm just a fool I can take anything but losing you

I Can't Help It (If I'm Still in Love with You)
And my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side
And he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A picture from the past came slowly stealin'
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feelin'
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you
And hold you just the way I used to do
Oh, Heaven only knows how much I miss you
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

I Can't Take It No Longer
Baby, since you been goner you know, I cry all the time
I'm gonna crawl right back to you on my knees
Cryin' take me back please, baby, please, please, please
I can't take it no longer I got to be in your arms
You know it really is a wonder I ain't in the funny farm
'Cause the sun ain't shinin' and it's nine eight degrees
But I'm shiverin' and shakin' and 'bout to freeze
I can't take it no longer, I can't take it no longer
I ain't gonna pay no attention to my pride
'Cause without your sweet love, I get to be tired
I can't take it no longer I'm goin' out of my mind
Baby, since you been goner you know, I cry all the time
I'm gonna crawl right back to you on my knees
Cryin' take me back please, baby, please, please, please
I can't take it no longer, I can't take it no longer
I can't take it no longer, I can't take it no longer

I Come With Love
Looking to her on the
Night of his birth?
What did he know, this baby?
Could she understand?
How did he know, this baby?
As she held is hand in hers
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
What was he feeling?
Knowing his time on earth
Wouldn't be long?
What did he think, this young man
In a world of sin?
What would he tell the strangers?
When he took them in his arms?
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
When he was dying
And his sweet mother was
There by his side
Who did he blame, this savior?
Sending him to death
She could hear it in a whisper
As he took his
Final breath
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
