I'm laying in the back of my daddy's old pick-up truck. Looking up in the sky at the stars, all I see is you.. yeah. and, I find myself in my room, sitting here.
(You are golden, you are pure). . Tell me, tell me, tell me your problems. I'm here for you. Just try, just try, just try to stay sober. It's eating you.
I can't stand the collar. It makes it hard to swallar. But where you go I'll faller. Hey, I'm a lucky dog. . I can't get used to gettin'. All this love and pettin'.
There's a long line of mourners driving down our little street. Their fancy cars are such a sight to see, oh, yeah. They're all of your rich friends who knew you in the city.
You said I'd live to regret it. I said, "I'll die before I do.". Now the pain is gonna kill me if I let it. Has it been a lifetime. Since I walked out on you?.
Babe, babe, babe let me lay into you. I don't know where you're going, but I know what you been through. A little wishing or just an appreciation. Babe, babe, babe this is my lover's plea to you.
Listen darling. Who's gonna hold and squeeze me tight?. Now that she's gone out of my life. Who's gonna make me feel the way she used to do. Now that my love is overdue.
She swears, that I'm the only one. What about yesterday, yeah. Oh! I'd like to believe. Somehow I still suspect. . Locked away. She ought to be locked away.
I guess weve come full circle. Were strangers once again. Its hard to know wed ever come to this. Its funny you were saying how youd miss. The good ole times.
(Jimmy Driftwood). . One night as I lay on my pillow. Moon shining bright as the dawn. I saw a man come-a-walkin'. He had a long chain on. . I heard his chain a clankin'.
Levelland - James McMurtry, Jr.. from "Where'd You Hide the Body" 1995. . Flatter than a tabletop. Makes you wonder why they stopped here. Wagon must have lost a wheel or they lacked ambition one.
Put the horses in the stable. Load the mules on the train. Set your pistols on the table. leave the dogs out in the rain. . Take the money that they gave you.
You wanna love with me, love with me then. I only ask that you still be my friend. For there are many where friendship's unknown. They live together, but really alone.
The sun is settin. On our time living here. Youve lost the will. Ive lost the heart. We should be leavin. While the coast is still clear. Cause we wont make it after dawn.
Lord, I'm gonna love You. Yes, I'm gonna love You. Oh, I'm gonna love You Lord. With all that's in my heart. . Lord, I'm gonna trust You. Yes, I'm gonna trust You.
When I was young I used to believe everything that I heard. Just what I heard. But now the only thing that I can believe is God's word. His Holy Word.
Look at me,. Tell me what do you see?. Does my soul lay broken inside?. . Look at me,. Tell me what do you see?. Have my tears washed away my foolish pride?.
[Verse 1]. . Please don't see just a girl caught up in dreams and fantasies.. Please see me reaching out for someone I can't see.. Take my hand, let's see where we wake up tomorrow..
We take a chance from time to time. And put our necks out on the line. And you have broken every promise that we made. And I have loved you anyway. . Took a fine time to leave me hangin' out to dry.
If calmer seas. Are waiting patiently. Than why are we drowning. In the height of the storm. . We hold our breath, Together. Eyes set on, Each other. Don't let go, This won't take long.
