I've played in bars and nursing homes.. And train station's out west.. Carnivals and backyard fires.. And everywhere else in between.. . Bless the ones who help the cause..
Open up the door.. And let the sound come in.. I can hear the owls.. And the dogs again.. And they sing.. And they shout.. When the moon is out.. . Open up a window..
Well I was driving down the road just a minding my own.. When Johnny Law pulled up from behind.. He walked up to my window and said, roll it down.. And let me see what I can find..
Smoke em if you got em,. drink your glasses to the bottom,. and toast me on another year.. Another year of hope,. another year of holdin on,. you drinkers by day, and bastards by dawn..
My Grandma's Grandpa.. Came over across the sea.. In the boiler room of a steam ship.. On his way from Germany.. . He was running from the Kaiser.. Who was putting the hammer down..
It was a beautiful day. And the sun was shining high. Not a cloud up above. It was a good day to die..... And I got my chores done. And I got the horses fed.
Oh bury me not on the lone prairie.". Where the coyotes wail and the wind blows free.. And when I die, don't bury me. beneath the western sky, on the lone prairie..
Caught in my mirror, the sun. Stares with his one crazy eye,. From a burning blue sky,. And we walked on and on,. Darling you turned 21. . Trying to get everything done,.
Watch out if you think you're going places,. People sometimes take you by surprise;. And if you ain't got fifty different faces,. You've got to be a master of disguise..
Well wait a minute baby, What you gonna do?. People call me crazy, But I want you.. Don't wanna get turned down,. Don't wanna push nobody round now.. Honey, how come you ever want another man's loving if it ain't no better than mine?.
I wanna live the way I like,. Sleep all the morning, go and get my fun at night.. Things ain't like that here,. Working just to keep my payments clear..
He sits in your room, his tomb, with a fist full of tacks. Preoccupied with his vengeance. Cursing the dead that can't answer him back. You know he has no intentions.
Sounds like a boring day since you've been gone. I never knew the nights could be so long. Are you on your way to someone new?. Come on home, baby, true love so true.
Someone's on my mind, oh baby. . Meet me there at a half past eight. At our usual place. I really need to see you just one more time. Before we say our goodbyes to all that we have, my baby.
We were a flower. That never reach full bloom. We never gave our love much chance to grow. Even though the feeling was wonderful. We went on our separate ways.
Late at night I lie awake in bed. Think about all the things you said. I'm so confused, I don't know what to do. You're on my mind, make this dream come true.
Ooh ooh ooh. . You said you believed that we'd find love together happily. After all the wrong I've done. You feel that I'm still the one to give your loving to.
No hopeful words can comfort me. to lay the same nice smile. I'll laugh again eventually. till then just let me cry. . You say that love come back again.
All of my days your shadow puppets dance on each service,. . and I confess I wish I could dance with them. . and I must run to the next task on this long list.
Melody inside my head, memories I cannot shed. . Musics a tall strong tree, and with love is the only way to be. . Pretty people and their pretty things,.
