  1. Looking at the devil

    Grinning at his gun

    Fingers start shaking

    I begin to run

     

    Thank you for letting me be myself again

     

    Bullets start chasing

    I begin to stop

    We begin to wrestle and

    I was on the top

     

    I want to Thank you ...

     

    Thank you for the party

    I could never stay

    Many things is on my mind

    Words in the way

     

    Thank you ..

  2. It's a family affair, it's a family affair

    It's a family affair, it's a family affair

    One child grows up to be

    Somebody that just loves to learn

    And another child grows up to be

    Somebody you'd just love to burn

    Mom loves the both of them

    You see it's in the blood

    Both kids are good to Mom

    "Blood's thicker than mud"

    It's a family affair, it's a family affair

    Newlywed a year ago

    But you're still checking each other out

    Nobody wants to blow

    Nobody wants to be left out

    You can't leave, 'cause your heart is there

    But you can't stay, 'cause you been somewhere else!

     

    You can't cry, 'cause you'll look broke down

    But you're cryin' anyway 'cause you're all broke down!

     

    It's a family affair

    It's a family affair

  3. smoke was pulled like ribbons from the windows of the car.

    i followed the flash of silver from your teeth.

    above the tarmac the lights were icy green.

    buried in patterns in your chest, a quiet shimmering.

    little dipper, tiara-shine, song bird shivery, thin thin dime.

    smoke like ribbons....

     

    songs were pulled in ribbons from the window of the car...

    lost along the shoulders of the highway.

    the cake walk dancers unwind from their spin

    singing 'lawty lawty loved him'.

    stark don't give a flat fuck.

  4. I am a man of constant sorrow,

    I've seen trouble all my day.

    I bid farewell to old Kentucky,

    The place where I was born and raised.

    (The place where he was born and raised )

     

    For six long years I've been in trouble,

    No pleasures here on earth I found.

    For in this world I'm bound to ramble,

    I have no friends to help me now.

    (He has no friends to help him now.)

     

    It's fare thee well my old lover.

    I never expect to see you again.

    For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad,

    Perhaps I'll die upon this train.

    (Perhaps he'll die upon this train.)

     

    You can bury me in some deep valley,

    For many years where I may lay.

    Then you may learn to love another,

    While I am sleeping in my grave.

    (While he is sleeping in his grave.)

     

    Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger

    My face, you'll never see no more.

    But there is one promise that is given

    I'll meet you on God's golden shore.

    (He'll meet you on God's golden shore.)

  5. When the spell is broken

    When the spell is broken

    How you ever gonna keep her now

    You can't cry if you don't know how

    When the spell is broken

    When the spell is broken

    All the joy is gone from her face

    Welcome back to the human race

    How long can the flame

    Of love remain

    When you curse and fight

    And never see like

    Or hear like spoken

    When the spell is broken

    (Can't cry if you don't know how)

    (Can't cry if you don't know how)

    When the spell is broken

    (Can't cry if you don't know how)

    Oh when the spell is broken

    All your magic and your ways and schemes

    All your lies come and tear at your dreams

    When the spell is broken

    (Can't cry if you don't know how)

    When the spell is broken

    Now you're handing her that same old line

    It's just straws in the wind this time

    When love has died,

    There's none starry-eyed

    No kiss, no tears,

    No farewell souvenirs

    Not even a token, when the spell is broken

     

    Don't swear your heart

    From the very start

    Love letters you wrote

    Are pushed back down you throat

    And leave you choking, when the spell is broken

    (When the spell, When the spell, When the spell is broken)

    When the spell is broken

    When the spell is broken

    (When the spell, When the spell, When the spell is broken)

    When the spell is broken

    When the spell is broken

     

    (Can't cry if you don't know how)

  6. A worried man with a worried mind

    No one in front of me and nothing behind

    There's a woman on my lap and she's drinking champagne

    Got white skin, got assassin's eyes

    I'm looking up into the sapphire tinted skies

    I'm well dressed, waiting on the last train

     

    Standing on the gallows with my head in a noose

    Any minute now I'm expecting all hell to break loose

     

    People are crazy and times are strange

    I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range

    I used to care, but things have changed

     

    This place ain't doing me any good

    I'm in the wrong town, I should be in Hollywood

    Just for a second there I thought I saw something move

    Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag

    Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag

    Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove

     

    Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too

    Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through

     

    I've been walking forty miles of bad road

    If the bible is right, the world will explode

    I've been trying to get as far away from myself as I can

    Some things are too hot to touch

    The human mind can only stand so much

    You can't win with a losing hand

     

    Feel like falling in love with the first woman I meet

    Putting her in a wheel barrow and wheeling her down the street

     

    I hurt easy, I just don't show it

    You can hurt someone and not even know it

    The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity

    Gonna get low down, gonna fly high

    All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie

    I'm love with a woman who don't even appeal to me

     

    Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lake

    I'm not that eager to make a mistake

  7. Feel a bit roughed up, feel a bit frightened

    Nearly pin it down some time

    Red sail action wake up in the wrong town

    Boy, I really get around

     

    Thunder ocean

    Thunder ocean

    Red sails take me, make me sail along

     

    Red sails, and a mast so tall

    Red sail

    Red sail

     

    Do you remember we another person

    Green and black and red and so scared

    Graffiti on the wall kept us all in tune

    Bringing us all back home

     

    Red sails

    Thunder ocean

    Red sails

    Sailor can't dance like you, ooh, yooou

     

    Ahh, red sail

    Red sail action

    Red sail

    Some reaction

     

    Action boy seen living under neon

    Struggling the foreign tongue

    Red sails make him strong

    Action make him sail along

    Life stands still and stares

     

    The hinterland, the hinterland

    We're gonna sail to the hinterland

    It's far far, far far far, far far far away

    Its a far far, far far fa, da da da, da da da

  8. My heart is empty.

    Your eyes are dark.

    Once we were hungry,

    Now we are full.

    These chains that bind us,

    Can't beat these chains.

    If love is shelter,

    I'm gonna walk in the rain.

     

    You were my angel.

    Now, you are real.

    So like a stranger,

    Colder than steel.

    The morning after,

    You know what you bring.

    If love is a red dress,

    Well, hang me in rags.

     

    Away.

    There goes the fairy tale.

    Lord, ain't it a shame?

    In all this comfort,

    I can't take the strain.

     

    If we played even,

    I'd be your queen.

    But someone was cheatin'.

    And it wasn't me.

    I've laid it on the table,

    You had something back.

    If love is Aces,

    Give me the Jack.

  9. Here where you are standing

    The dinosaurs did a dance

    The indians told a story

    Now it has come to pass

     

    The indians had a legend

    The spaniards lived for gold

    The white man came and killed them

    But they haven

  10. This is the day

    Of the expanding man

    That shape is my shade

    There where I used to stand

    It seems like only yesterday

    I gazed through the glass

    At ramblers

    Wild gamblers

    That's all in the past

     

    You call me a fool

    You say it's a crazy scheme

    This one's for real

    I already bought the dream

    So useless to ask me why

    Throw a kiss and say goodbye

    I'll make it this time

    I'm ready to cross that fine line

     

    I'll learn to work the saxophone

    I'll play just what I feel

    Drink Scotch whisky all night long

    And die behind the wheel

    They got a name for the winners in the world

    I want a name when I lose

    They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

    Call me Deacon Blues

     

    My back to the wall

    A victim of laughing chance

    This is for me

    The essence of true romance

    Sharing the things we know and love

    With those of my kind

    Libations

    Sensations

    That stagger the mind

     

    I crawl like a viper

    Through these suburban streets

    Make love to these women

    Languid and bittersweet

    I'll rise when the sun goes down

    Cover every game in town

    A world of my own

    I'll make it my home sweet home

     

    I'll learn to work the saxophone

    I'll play just what I feel

    Drink Scotch whisky all night long

    And die behind the wheel

    They got a name for the winners in the world

    I want a name when I lose

    They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

    Call me Deacon Blues

     

    This is the night

    Of the expanding the man

    I take one last drag

    As I approach the stand

    I cried when I wrote this song

    Sue me if I play too long

    This brother is free

    I'll be what I want to be

  11. Well I woke this morning with a pain in my neck,

    A pain in my heart and a pain in my chest,

    I went to the good doctor and the good doctor said,

    You gotta slow down your life or you're gonna be dead,

    Cut out the struggle and strife,

    It only complicates your life.

     

    Well I cut down women I cut out booze,

    I stopped ironing my shirts, cleaning my shoes,

    I stopped going to work, reading the news,

    I'm sitting twiddling my thumbs cos I got nothing to do,

    Minimal exercise,

    To help uncomplicate my life,

    Gotta stand and face it life is so complicated,

    Ladi dah di dahdah, ladi dah di dah dah,

    Got to get away from the complicated life son,

    Life is overated, life is complicated,

    Must aleviate this, complicated life.

     

    Like old Mother Hubbard

    I got nothin' in the cupboard,

    Got no dinner and I got no supper,

    Holes in my shoes I got holes in my socks,

    I can't go to work cos I can't get a job,

    The bills are rising sky high,

    It's such a complicated life,

    Gotta stand and face it,

    Life is so complicated.

  12. Shoot me down in flames if I should tell a lie

    Cross my heart I promise that it's true

    I've been in love so many times before

    but never with a girl like you

     

    With a girl like you

    to hold and be beside

    With a girl like you

    to fill my heart with pride and joy

     

    With a girl like you

    I know where I belong

    With a girl like you

    I know I can be strong, you know

    I won't bring you any pain

    I won't run around again

    Ther'll be nothing to explain

    with a girl like you

     

    You know

    I won't bring you any pain

    I won't run around again

    Ther'll be nothing to explain

    with a girl like you

  13. Down on South Street Philadelphia,

    Out from Avenue C,

    I seen it in the eyes

    it was ready to freeze

    from the valley hotel!

     

    I don't care about you!

    Fuck you!

    I don't care about you!

    Fuck you!

     

    I see Hollywood boulevard,

    welfare hotel,

    I spent the night in jail,

    near the Wicox hotel!

     

    I don't care about you!

    Fuck you!

    I don't care about you!

     

    I've seen an old man have a heart attack in Manhattan.

    Well he just died while we just stood there lookin' at him.

    Ain't he cute?

     

    I don't care about you!

    Ohhhhhhhhh!

    I don't care about you!

     

    I see man rollin' drunks,

    bodies the streets.

    Some man was sleepin' in puke

    and a man with no legs crawling down 5th street trying to get something to eat!

     

    I don't care about you!

    Oh noooooo!!

    I don't care about you!

    Fuck you!

    I don't care about you!

    Hey! Hey!

    I don't care about you!

  14. I keep looking for a place to fit where I can speak my mind,

    I've been trying hard to find people that I won't leave behind,

     

    They say I got brains, but they ain't doing me no good,

    I wish they could

     

    Each time things start to happen again I think

    I got something good goin' for myself

     

    But what goes wrong?

     

    Sometimes I feel very sad

    Sometimes I feel very sad

     

    Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into

     

    Sometimes I feel very sad

     

    Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into

     

    I guess I just wasn't made for these times

     

    Every time I get the inspiration to go change things around,

    No one wants to help me look for places where new things might

    be found,

    Where can I turn when my fair weather friends cop out?

    What's it all about?

     

    Each time things start to happen again

    I think I got something good goin' for myself

     

    But what goes wrong?

     

    Sometimes I feel very sad

    Sometimes I feel very sad

    Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into

     

    Sometimes I feel very sad

    Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into

     

    I guess I just wasn't made for these times
