Moodswing whiskey. Drank it all in the trailer. Waiting for the dark to move in. Sitting in my step-sister's kitchen. Horseflies on the window sill. Eyes trained on the lemon peeler.
I'm lying in my bed. The blanket is warm. This body will never be safe from harm. Still feel your hair, black ribbons of coal. Touch my skin to keep me whole.
I used to know a little square. So long ago, when I was small. All summer long it had a fair. Wonderful fair with swings and all. I used to love my little fair.
I heard that you've been feeling down and blue,. But there ain't nothing really wrong with you,. You just need a little tendin to. Let me show you what a little bit of love can do!.
Here is the freedom. I have been sent. I'm delighted. I'm buddhistly bent. Wonderful newness. The past is a dream. The future is hiding. Ice and steam.
Well, I came out swinging at the center field wall. And I caught a fast ball and I touched them all. But I burned down my engines needed to break. Where all that's required is the time that we take.
The river is wide. Deeper than deep. On one side they're cryin'. on the other they're asleep. And it's all a dream. Least it seems like to me. Might never wake up.
I don't cross the path as much anymore. It's not the same as it was before. Well, I'd like to think that I did my best. But I had to learn like all the rest.
I love you, love you like sugar cane. I, I love you like sugar cane. Strip it down, sure is sweet. You keep on chewin' till you're dead on your feet. .
I know somebody whose life is tough. I help a little but it isn't enough. 'Cause I go spent money on stupid stuff. When I know he's struggling to stay above.
I falling short or do I fly. While I miss the mark do I hit the sky. And in my wondering do I answer why. I'm alive. To make a space - bushwhack a path -.
I used to work and take a salary. In a hole up near a foundry. But it did not take me too long. To get my boots on a "so long!". Long spanish boots on a "so long!".
You can have a mansion. You can have twenty million dollars in the bank. You can have a twelve car garage,. Golden fixtures and a marble sink. You can have everything.
Lookin' down that highway far as I can see. Where I left so much of me. It's gone, gone, gone. It's how it has to be. Went in the ditch goin' 95. I can't believe that I walked away alive.
i'm driving my blue car baby. down from the mountain so high. i'm driving my blue car baby. coming down to say goodbye. . the sunrise is a miracle. but it can't hold a candle to you.
I've woken up on mornings such as this. And thought exactly the same as I'm thinking now. Every night for a year I've slept alone. My cold damp room looks worse than me.
Why has time been given to us?. To say things we don't understand. . Words like daggers stab our heart, boys. Gotta be the better man. . People they can break your heart, boys.
The warden threw a party in the county jail. The prison band was there and they began to wail. The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing. You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Ice cream cakes, lollipops babe, ain't it sweet as you know. Ice cream cakes, lollipops babe, ain't it sweet as you know. It's so nice to be loved by somebody, somebody like you, yeah Lord.
