(Vic Chesnutt). sitting in a square room. my voice is freezing. and the beams that are bouncing off the moon. are hanging from my window like icicles.
Out on the highway a lot of pretty girls go by. But none have been right. Up until today I would never settle down. But you keep comming around. . And your love is a miracle.
I tossed and turned and tried counting sheep. When will I ever learn how I'll ever sleep. 'Til you're by my side it's just a waste of time. Ain't no use tryin' to get you off my mind.
(Vic Chesnutt). sitting in the breakfast nook. flipping through a saucy book. browsing for a bit of titillation. (that's what you do, that's what you do).
We were all down at Margie's bar tellin' stories if we had one. Someone fired the old jukebox up, the song it sure was a sad one. A teardrop rolled down Bubba's nose, from the pain the song was inflictin'.
(Vic Chesnutt). I was shaking with laugther. scared the bratty children. did I destroy the ambience. I'm sure for that hoity-toity patron. it wasn't pretty when I looked into the face.
Brother Jukebox -- Mark Chestnutt. -----------------------------------. CHORUS:. ] Brother jukebox. ] Sister wine. ] Mother freedom. ] Father of time.
(Vic Chesnutt). where did you go after the parade. I wandered, searching for about an hour. then I parked it on a bench. shifting and sulking. those pesky little mosquitoes.
(Vic Chesnutt). I can see my old hotel. down amongst the smells. I'm up above that ancient city river. it's filtered by my lousy liver. it's filtered by my wilted lily liver.
Out on the highway a lot of pretty girls go by. But none have been right. Up until today I would never settle down. But you keep comming around. . And your love is a miracle.
(Vic Chesnutt). I just never could say, "good bye" or "adieu". ooh, but the years, they have been so kind to you. there's some skills that I have learned to do.
I been having a ball since I was a boy in Beaumont. I love that town but I just couldn't stay. Two-stepped all the way to Amarillo. Shuffled my way into Santa Fe.
(Vic Chesnutt). dogs are barking, birds are chirping. the only thing better if I was squirting. but there's no one here to love on me today. for the maiden's on holiday.
[ Verse 1 ]. Well now, early one day,. i was on my way. to my favorite fishin' hole.. i was think i could sure use. another bottle of booze. and my baits a runnin a little low,.
no chocolate in the duty free shop. two drops of scotch. gonna end up on his crotch, tonight. all alone, sitting on the throne. some native tounge on the TV.
Are you alone---can you talk to an old friend. Right or wrong---I had to hear your voice again. Unwritten law, protocol. Says to leave the past alone.
(Vic Chesnutt). we will remain ignorant. incapable of knowing. insoluble is the problem. curiosity, sleeping. killed the caterpillar. curiosity, empty.
(Vic Chesnutt). I was shivering, I'll admit it. I had nothing better to do. except to wheeze my lazy wheeze. "Bernadette, where are you". "Bernadette, where are you".
Just follow the stairway. To this lonely world of mine. You'll find me waitin' here. In Apartment # 9. . Not so very long ago. You walked away from me.
(Vic Chesnutt). she's so musical. look at her dance in a flurry. who get's to lead. do know it's not Arthur Murray. emasculate me with your biology. bend me, break me, I'm worthless.
