Oh you came out from the woods where I was waiting. Said you were making time. And when I looked around you were gone back there. Oh boy from the North, beware.
Down that foggy road. Slow centipedes crawl. Plum blackberries fall. And the ground is dark as blood. . Down that foggy road. The moon burns red as flame.
She's a broken lady, waiting to be mended. Like a potter would mend a broken vase. A broken lady, waiting to be mended. And have what's left of the pieces put back in place.
I've got a bright red sticker on the back of my car. Says United States Marines. And yesterday a lady in a mini-van held up a middle finger at me. Does she think she knows what I stand for.
I know you don't like me. Don't like the things I do. The saddest part just might be. That I don't like you too. You think you know my story. Well maybe you did for a little while.
Why can't you just believe in me?. Not everyone is the enemy. I'm trying hard I swear I am. I'm doin' the best I can. . But I'm Broken. Broken. . I'm wagin' war up in my head.
I think I know what you're about to say. I can see it in your eyes and on your face. We swore we never would. So while the words are still unspoken. Don't you think you should.
In the back of the bottom drawer. Of the dresser by our bed. Is a box of odds and ends. That I have always kept. . But the man who sleeps beside me. Doesn't know it's even there.
I found a postcard from long ago. In a drawer yesterday.. Come back to Tucson, I miss you so.. It was warm here today.. Northern Rockies all deep in snow.
The old bridge is on fire and I'm the one to blame. A stone cold igniter of a violent flame. Suffer all my brothers and the family name. Like worn out lovers, nobody was gonna change.
You're nothin but a, a big mouth. Such a tough talker from the deep south. Well I'm a, a sore loser I'm a sure doubt. You wanna come closer well come on and find out.
Delta Mama and a Nickajack Man. Raised their Cumberland daughters in a Tennessee band. Played Springwater at Station Inn. Couldn't play fast, couldn't fit in.
I danced with an a-a-ange-el. On a night 'neath the stars. Cowboys were singin'. And playin' guitars. . The song they were play-ay-ayin'. Was a beautiful waltz.
Bring back, bring back. Bring back your love to me. I need your kisses. Oh, how I'm missing. The things that used to be. . I love you, I want you. I need you constantly.
Born to lose I've lived my life in vain every dream has always brought me pain. All my life I've always been so blue born to lose and now I'm losing you.
Well I'm a loser yes a loser born loser every time. I find a new love yes I think true love then I find out that she's not mine. I couldn't be so lucky this next time as to find me a love so true.
Blues in my heart, oh, how it aches. Nobody knows the sorrow it takes. I should have known right from the start. You'd leave me with these blues in my heart.
Last night I had a blue dream cause in my dream you told me we were through. I cried cause in my blue dream I saw you away with someone new. And then beside the blue stream I saw him makin' a fairy love to you.
It's been a blue, blue day. I feel like runnin' away. I feel like runnin' away from it all. . My love has been untrue. She's found somebody new. It's been a blue, blue day for me.
A big hearted me, big hearted me, big hearted me. A big hearted me had to go, give 'em my love away. I give it to a girl that broke it in two like it was plain.
