I got a brand new companion. Man, I'm gonna do my best this time. I got a brand new companion. Man, I'm gonna do my best this time. You know she cools me with her breathing.
Well, my home is in the Blue Ridge Mountains. My home is in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Well, my home is in the Blue Ridge Mountains. And I aint comin back here anymore.
I gotta guitar all my own, I gotta quarter for the telephone. I ain't headed down this highway all alone. One two three and maybe four honey, they're knockin' on my door.
Well, Billy went down to the battleground. To find a little trinket he could call his own. Didn't see nothin' lying around. He decided he'd dig awhile.
At my window. Watchin' the sun go. Hopin' the stars know. It's time to shine. . Daydreams. Aloft on dark wings. Soft as the sun streams. At days decline.
You live on your hill so high and so lonely. You toss out your bread crumbs to those down below. They think you're a king but believe me it's only. Because they're too blind to know.
Ribbons of love, please keep me true sane. Until I reach home on the morrow. Never, never to wander again. I'm weak and I'm weary of sorrow. . London to Dublin, Australia to Perth.
Hey mama, when you leave. Don't leave a thing behind. I don't want nothin'. I can't use nothin'. . Take care into the hall. And if you see my friends.
The name she gave was Caroline. Daughter of a miner. And her ways were free and it seemed to me. The sunshine walked beside her. . She came to Spencer, across the hill.
(T. van Zandt). If I needed you,. Would you come to me?. Would you come to me. and ease my pain?. If you needed me,. I would come to you,. I'd swim the seas.
(T. van Zandt). My days they are the highway kind,. They only come to leave,. But the leaving I don't mind. It's the coming that I crave,. Pour the sun upon the ground,.
If I had no place to fall. And I needed to. Could I count on you. To lay me down?. . I'd never tell you no lies. I don't believe it's wise. You've got pretty eyes.
Well, I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune. Oh, babe, I'm comin' soon. I cannot believe I stayed so long away. But a man must look around. An' you're the sweetest thing I've found.
There's no stronger winds than the one that blew. Down a lonesome railroad line. There's no prettier sight than looking back. On the town you left behind.
If I had no place to fall and I needed to. Could I count on you to lay me down?. . I'll never tell you, no lies. I don't believe it's wise. You got pretty eyes, won't you spin me 'round?.
Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me. Sometimes I can't even see the reason why. I guess I keep on gamblin' lots of booze and lots of ramblin'.
The name she gave was Caroline. The daughter of a miner. And her ways were free and it seemed to me. The sunshine walked beside her. She come from Spencer 'coss the hill.
Sometimes I don't know where. This stony road is taking me. Sometimes I don't know the reason why. So I guess I'll keep gambling. Lots of booze and lots of rambling.
Why does she sing these sad songs for me. I'm not the one to tenderly bring her soft sympathy. I've just begun to see my way clear, it's plain if I stop I will fall.
