So you did what you thought was right. Oh giving up the fight. The only way that we knew was wrong. Got me hanging on and on. Its everything you want.
I used to listen to the radio. And I dont guess theyre listenin to me no more. They talk too much but thats okay. I dont understand a single word they say.
It's where we're from and we'll always be. But we won't let 'em get to us. So come on, come on, we choke on the dirt. So come on, come on, we choke on the dust.
Everyone's in love with You. Everyone's in love with you. But you don't seem to mind. But it must be tough when you're cleanin' up. Them broken hearts sometimes.
I broke the door. I broke the furniture. A painted picture. Did it for you. . Telephone. I let it ring. Don't mean anything. Except for you. . I said goodbye.
On the blue side of evenin'. When the darkness takes control. You start lookin' for a reason. To take your lonesome on down the road. . 'Cause the night is filled with strangers.
There's a light that just won't go out. No matter what they try to do. 'Cause you can't pull out the circuits. Remove the bulb or blow the fuse. . And it just might be the brightest star.
I am Kilrain and I'm a fightin' man and I come from County Clare. And the Brits would hang me for a Fenian so I took me leave of there. And I crossed the ocean in the "Arrianne" the vilest tub afloat.
What if I told you it was done with mirrors. What if I showed you it was all a lie. Better be careful, someone might hear ya. The walls have ears and the sky has eyes.
Oh Condi Condi beggin on my knees. Open up your heart and let me in wontcha please. Got no money but everybody knows. I love you Condi and Ill never let you go.
(with Emmylou Harris). . Early this mornin I was washin my face. Thinkin bout goin to town. Sick and tired of hangin around this place. Waitin on the blues to track me down.
The first time I saw Carrie Brown. She was so young and fair. A voice like spring rain fallin' down and sunlight in her hair. I'd never seen her face before so I asked all around.
We signed up in San Antone, my brother Paul and me. To fight with Ben McCulloch and the Texas infantry. Well the poster said we'd get a uniform and seven bucks a week.
chorus. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. . A long time ago before the ice and the snow. There were giants that walked this land.
One of these days when my minds made up. And I'm sick and tired of hangin' around. I'll be on my way in a cloud of dust. On the road to another town. Once upon a time I loved this house.
Everybody call her angel. She's no stranger to the devil I know. His mark is on her body. His fire's burnin' in her soul. . When we're makin' love. He's laughin' at us down below.
Look at ya. Yeah, take a look in the mirror now tell me what you see. Another satisfied customer in the front of the line for the American dream. I remember when we was both out on the boulevard.
YELLOW EYES. THERES NO LIGHTS IN MY MIND FLICKERING FOR YOU. NO BIG CANDLES BURNING BRIGHT. AND NO UNCOMFORTABLE PEWS. SOME PEOPLE WASTE THEIR WHOLE LIVES.
I guess I don't get out too much. If that wasn't enough I hear all these voices. Always tellin' me that I'm bad. But it's all in my head - like all those scary noises..
Found out that someone has broken his arms,. Fell down and tore up the strings on his harp. When he fell from Venus to us,. . He landed in our reprobate arms and he's deceiving,.
