The runway rushed up at him as he felt the wheels touch down

He stood out on the blacktop and took a taxi into town

He got out down on Main Street and went into a local bar

He bought a drink and found a seat in a corner off the dark

Well she called up her mama to make sure the kids were out of the house

She checked herself out in the dining room mirror

And undid an extra button on her blouse

He felt her lying next to him, the clock said 4:00 am

He was staring at the ceiling

He couldn't move his hands

 

Oh mama mama mama come quick

I've got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick

Throw your arms around me in the cold dark night

Hey now mama don't shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

 

Well on his porch they stretched a banner that said "Johnny Welcome Home"

Bobby pulled his Ford out of the garage and they polished up the chrome

His mama said "Johnny oh Johnny, I'm so glad to have you back with me"

His pa said he was sure they'd give him his job back down at the factory

 

Oh mama mama mama come quick

I've got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick

Throw your arms around me in the cold dark night

Hey now mama don't shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

 

Well deep in a dark forest, a forest filled with rain

Beyond a stretch of Maryland pines there's a river without a name

In the cold black water Johnson Lineir stands

He stares across the lights of the city and dreams of where he's been

 

Oh mama mama mama come quick

I've got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick

Throw your arms around me in the cold dark night

Hey now mama don't shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

Don't you shut out the light

 

 

 

This song blew my mind when I first heard it...and still does! Great one song!

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air

And deep beneath the rolling waves

In labyrinths of coral caves

An echo of a distant time

Comes willowing across the sand

And everything is green and submarine

 

And no one called us to the land

And no one knows the wheres or whys

Something stirs and something tries

And starts to climb toward the light

 

Strangers passing in the street

By chance two separate glances meet

And I am you and what I see is me

And do I take you by the hand

And lead you through the land

And help me understand the best I can

 

And no one called us to the land

And no one crosses there alive

No one speaks and no one tries

No one flies around the sun

 

Almost everyday you fall upon my waking eyes

Inviting and inciting me to rise

And through the window in the wall

Comes streaming in on sunlight wings

A million bright ambassadors of morning

 

And no one sings me lullabies

And no one makes me close my eyes

So I throw the windows wide

And call to you across the sky

You bite through the big wall

The big wall bites back

You sit there and sulk

Sit there and bawl

You're so pretty

When you're on your knees

Disaffected and eager to please

 

Sometimes you sulk

Sometimes you burn

God rest your soul

When the loving comes and we've already gone

Just like your dad

You'll never change

 

Each time it comes it eats me alive

I try to behave but it eats me alive

So I declare a holiday

Fall asleep drift away

Sometimes you sulk

Sometimes you burn

God rest your soul when the loving comes and we've already gone

Just like your dad

You'll never change

Jason Isbell - The Magician

 

You watch every move

You call it slight of hand

You know its what I do

But never who I am

Never who I am

 

Started on the street

With cards and dollar bills

Shuffling my feet

I never could be boosted

I never could be boosted

 

Now I am an Orphan man

But ain't we all

I can make myself disappear

 

I am an Orphan Man

But ain't we all

I know there's something worse than here

 

I had a bride

Sawed her in half

Couple people cried

Most of them just laughed

Most of them just laughed

 

I had a son

Strong of hand and will

I taught him how to run

But never how to steal

Never how to steal

 

Now I am an Orphan man

But ain't we all

I can make myself disappear

 

I am an Orphan Man

But ain't we all

I could be somewhere worse than here

 

I was called amazing

And I made folks believe

With nothing in my pockets

With nothing up my sleeve

 

I am an Orphan Man

But ain't we all

I can make myself disappear

 

I am an Orphan Man

But ain't we all

I know there's something worse than here

Worse than here

Worse than here

If your the girl that I noticed putting a dime in my mind's eye, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk.

 

If your the chick I saw in the tall grass looking at someone through tinted blue glass, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk.

 

Cause I've never been this close before, to someone who didn't seem to mind. I've never found hellos before, I've only found goodbyes.

 

If your the girl I met in my daydreams, handing out flowers and chocolate ice cream, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk.

If your the girl that I talked to and said do you mind if I love you, than your more than welcome to my share of the sidewalk.

You, doin' that thing you do

Breakin' my heart into a million pieces

Like you always do

And you, don't mean to be cruel

You never even knew about the heartache

I've been going through

Well I try and try to forget you girl

But it's just so hard to do

Every time you do that thing you do

I know all the games you play

And I'm gonna find a way to let you know that

You'll be mine someday

'Cause we could be happy can't you see

If you'd only let me be the one to hold you

And keep you here with me

'Cause I try and try to forget you girl

But it's just so hard to do

Every time you do that thing you do

I don't ask a lot girl (I don't ask a lot girl)

But I know one thing's for sure (know one thing's for sure)

It's the love I haven't got girl

And I just can't take it anymore... Whoa!!

'Cause we could be happy can't you see

If you'd only let me be the one to hold you

And keep you here with me

'Cause it hurts me so just to see you go

Around with someone new

And if I know you, you're doin' that thing...

Everyday just doin' that thing...

I can't take you doin' that thing you do

goodnight, to every little hour that you sleep tite

may it hold you through the winter of a long night

and keep you from the loneliness of yourself

heart strung is your heart frayed and empty

cause it's hard luck, when no one understands your love

it's unsung, and i say

 

goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day

goodnight, always, to all that's in your heart

 

goodnight, may your dreams be so happy and your

head lite with the wishes of a sandman and a

night light, be careful not to let the bedbugs

sleep tight nestled in your covers

 

the sun shines but i don't

a silver rain will wash away

 

and you can tell, it's just as well

and you can tell, it's just as well

 

goodnight, my love, to every hour in every day

goodnight, always to all that's pure that's in your heart

Hello Everyone, it's time for poetry

I submit to you the following it's entitled:

"I Eat with Gusto, Damn! You Bet"

By one Jonathan Richman.

 

When I eat like I do it,

I use not fork nor spoon

No grace or culture to it

When I call my own tune.

 

For I eat with gusto, damn you bet

A regular canine cruncher

Except truth be told I'm sloppier yet

Than many a dog food muncher

I eat a pound I eat a ton

And no there ain't much I cuts up

And while I'm having merry fun

Bystanders puke their guts up.

 

The FBI sent someone by

Who handles health affairs

I had not finished my cream pie

When he chanced up the stairs

Why did he turn the other way?

Why did he leave so quick?

Will he come back another day?

Did something make him sick?

 

I eat with gusto damn you bet

A regular doggie diner

"No don't bring me napkins waiter sir,

Just bring some trash can liner."

 

Whilst wandering by a juice bar

I spyed a tempting beverage

Since I would have been last in line

I used my fearsome leverage

For in my pocket was some food

Which I took from the wrapper

The patrons watched it being chewed

And of course headed for the crapper.

 

For I eat with gusto damn you bet

For gusto I'm the boss

For yay my nose it is in the salad

And lo my chin it is in the sauce

I eat with gusto damn you bet

We're sailing around the cape

"Keel-haul him," said the Bosun

"There must be no escape."

 

One sunny day in Paris an elegant cafe

A phone call there a phone call here

And the gendarmes took me away

 

I said "qu'est-ce qui se passe ici"

I said " mais qu'est-ce que c'est"

They said "Such eating it is criminal

And crime it does not pay."

 

For I eat with gusto damn you bet.

My banner yay unfurled

My shirt is covered with mustard

And my hair with ketchup curled

 

Goodby to Egypt, Greece and Rome

The ancient world goodbye.

May squalor be my summer home

And filth be my neck tie.

 

For I eat with gusto damn you bet.

Uh, And Uh, I eat with gusto damn you bet

My country tis of thee

I eat for social progress

I eat for victory

 

Somebody died who watched me eat

In a restaurant one spell

He woke up and saw me eating beans

And knew that he'd gone to hell

 

For Uh, "He eats with gusto damn we bet."

They're calling from the south

They want to stop my gusto

They want to close my mouth

"You eat with gusto, yeah that's great

Now let us off this bus."

Wait a minute I haven't finished eating up stuff yet.

"We'll call you, don't call us."

Sadly I have this song stuck in my head today:

 

 

Somewhere high in the desert near a curtain of a blue

St. Anne's skirts are billowing

But down here in the city of the lime lights

The fans of santa ana are withering

And you can

Deaf, dumb and blind boy

He's in a quiet vibration land.

Strange as it seems, his musical dreams

Ain't quite so bad.

 

Ten years old with

thoughts as bold as thoughts can be.

Loving life and becoming wise in simplicity.

 

Sickness will surely take the mind

Where minds can't usually go.

Come on the amazing journey

And learn all you should know.

 

A vague haze of delirium

Creeps up on me.

All at once a tall stranger I suddenly see.

He's dressed in a silver sparkled glittering gown

And his golden beard flows

Nearly down to the ground.

 

Nothing to say and nothing to hear

And nothing to see.

Each sensation makes a note

In my symphony.

 

Sickness will surely take the mind

Where minds can't usually go.

Come on the amazing journey

And learn all you should know.

 

His eyes are the eyes that

Transmit all they know.

Sparkle warm crystaline glances to show

That he is your leader

And he is your guide

On the amazing journey

Together you'll ride.

Bleed in your own light

Dream of your own life

I miss me

I miss everything I'll never be

And on, and on

 

I torch my soul to show

The world that I am pure

Deep inside my heart

No more lies

 

A crown of horns

An image formed deformed

The mark I've borne

A mark of scorn to you

 

Consume my love, devour my hate

Only powers my escape

The moon is out, the stars invite

I think I'll leave tonight

 

So soon I'll find myself alone

To relax and fade away

Do you know what's coming down

Do you know I couldn't stay free?

 

I shall be free

I shall be free

I shall be free

I shall be free

I shall be free free

Free of those voices inside me

I shall be free

I shall be free

Rock Plaza Central - The Things That Bind You

 

http://www.rockplazacentral.com/Things.mp3

 

Pick up all the things that bind you

All the loving things that find you

Longing for the days when they could drop you down and pacify you

Pick up all the things that mattered

All the loving things you gathered

When you were both still together

Running through all kinds of weather

With the money from her accident

She bought herself a mobile home

So at least she could get some enjoyment

Out of being alone

No one could say that she was left up on the shelf

It's you and me against the World kid she mumbled to herself

 

When the world falls apart some things stay in place

Levi Stubbs' tears run down his face

 

She ran away from home on her mother's best coat

She was married before she was even entitled to vote

And her husband was one of those blokes

The sort that only laughs at his own jokes

The sort a war takes away

And when there wasn't a war he left anyway

 

Norman Whitfield and Barratt Strong

Are here to make everything right that's wrong

Holland and Holland and Lamont Dozier too

Are here to make it all okay with you

 

One dark night he came home from the sea

And put a hole in her body where no hole should be

It hurt her more to see him walking out the door

And though they stitched her back together they left her heart in pieces on the floor

 

When the world falls apart some things stay in place

She takes off the Four Tops tape and puts it back in its case

When the world falls apart some things stay in place

Levi Stubbs' tears...

New Jersey Turnpike ridin' on a wet night 'neath the refinery's glow, out where the great black rivers flow

License, registration, I ain't got none but I got a clear conscience

'Bout the things that I done

Mister state trooper, please don't stop me

Please don't stop me, please don't stop me

 

Maybe you got a kid, maybe you got a pretty wife the only thing that I got's been both'rin' me my whole life

Mister state trooper, please don't stop me

Please don't stop me, please don't stop me

 

In the wee wee hours your mind gets hazy, radio relay towers lead me to my baby

Radio's jammed up with talk show stations

It's just talk, talk, talk, talk, till you lose your patience

Mister state trooper, please don't stop me

 

Hey, somebody out there, listen to my last prayer

Hiho silver-o, deliver me from nowhere

Our band could be your life

Real names be proof

Me and Mike Watt played for years

Punk rock changed our lives

 

We learned punk rock in Hollywood

Drove up from Pedro

We were fucking corndogs

We'd go drink and pogo

 

Mr. Narrator

This is Bob Dylan to me

My story could be his songs

I'm his soldier child

 

Our band is scientist rock

But i was e. bloom and Richard Hell

Joe Strummer and John Doe

Me and Mike Watt playing guitar

Hang a picture up on your wall

Tighten all the nails so it don't fall

In this picture, could have been a picture of my face

Something painful, went and took it's place

If he can't have you, guess that no one else will

Watch him think a while, smoke a cigarette and smile as I frown

If he can't have you, guess that no one else will

Watch him think a while, smoke a cigarette and smile as I frown

 

Drink your coffee in the morning,

And at night, go and drink your beer

All along you don't feel so welcome here

And I walk by, and you steer clear

You always said, it'd come passionate here

Don't like what you see, you don't like what you hear

 

If he can't have you, guess that no one else will

Watch him think a while, smoke a cigarette and smile as I frown

If he can't have you, guess that no one else will

Watch him think a while, smoke a cigarette and smile as I frown

as the sun comes up, as the moon

goes down

these heavy notions creep around

it makes me think

long ago I was brought into

this life a little lamb

a little lamb

courageous, stumbling

fearless was my middle name.

but somewhere there I

lost my way

everyone walks the same

expecting me to step

the narrow path they've laid

they claim to

walk unafraid

I'll be clumsy instead

hold my love me or leave me

high.

 

say "keep within the boundaries if you want

to play."

say "contradiction only makes it harder."

how can I be

what I want to be?

when all I want to do is strip away

these stilled constraints

and crush this charade

shred this sad masquerade

I don't need no persuading

I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and

walk unafraid

I'll be clumsy instead

hold my love me or leave me

high.

 

if I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go

I just want to hold my head up high

I don't care what I have to step over

I'm prepared to look you in the eye

look me in the eye

and if you see familiarity

then celebrate the contradiction

help me when I fall to

walk unafraid

I'll be clumsy instead

hold my love me or leave me

high.

walk unafraid

I'll be clumsy instead

hold my love me or leave me

high.

Every step of the way, we walk the line

Your days are numbered, so are mine

Time is piling up, we struggle and we stray

We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape

 

City's just a jungle, more games to play

Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away

I was raised in the country, I been working in the town

I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down

 

Got nothing for you, I had nothing before

Don't even have anything for myself anymore

Sky full of fire, Pain pouring down

Nothing you can sell me, I'll see you around

 

All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime

Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme

Only one thing I did wrong

Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

 

Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall

Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all

I was thinking about the things that Rosie said

I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed

 

Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees

Feeling like a stranger nobody sees

So many things that we never will undo

I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too

 

Some people will offer you their hand and some won't

Last night I knew you, tonight I don't

I need something strong to distract my mind

I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind

 

Well I got here following the southern star

I crossed that river just to be where you are

Only one thing I did wrong

Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

 

Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast

I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past

But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free

I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me

 

Everybody's moving, if they ain't already there

Everybody's got to move somewhere

Stick with me baby, stick with me anyhow

Things should start to get interesting right about now

 

My clothes are wet, tight on my skin

Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in

I know that fortune is waiting to be kind

So give me your hand and say you'll be mine

 

Well, the emptiness is endless, cold as the clay

You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way

Only one thing I did wrong

Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

When a Soldier Makes It Home

------------------------------------

 

Halfway around the world tonight

In a strange and foriegn land

A soldier packs his memories

As he leaves Afghanistan

Back home they don't know too much

There's just no way to tell

I guess you had to be there

For to know that war is Hell

 

And there won't be any victory parades

For those that's comin' back

They'll fly them in at midnight

And unload the body sacks

And the living will be walkin'

Down a long and lonely road

Because nobody seems to care these days

When a soldier makes it home

 

They'll say it wasn't easy

Just another 'job well done'

As the government in Kabul falls

To the sound of rebel guns

And the faces of their comrades

Bein' blown out of the sky

Leaves you bitter with the feeling

That they didn't have to die

 

And there won't be any victory parades

For those that make it back

They'll fly them in at midnight

And unload the body sacks

And the living will be walkin'

Down a long and lonely road

Because nobody seems to care these days

When a soldier makes it home

 

But halfway around the world tonight

In a strange and foriegn land

A soldier unpacks his memories

That he saved from Vietnam

'Cause back home they didn't know too much

There was just no way to tell

I guess you had to be there

For to know that war was Hell

 

And there wasn't any big parades

For those that made it back

They flew them in at midnight

And unloaded all the sacks

And the living was left walkin'

Down a long and lonely road

'Cause no one seemed to care back then

When a soldier made it home

 

The night is comin' quickly

And the stars are on their way

As I stare into the evening

Lookin' for the words to say

Then I saw a lonely soldier

Just a boy that's far from home

And I saw that I was just like him

While the pounding surf I roam

 

And there may not be any big parades

If I ever make it back

As I come home undercover

To a world that can't keep track

And the heroes that have fallen

Let alone the ones who owe

Which is why nobody seems to care

When a soldier makes it home

Born down in a dead man's town

The first kick I took was when I hit the ground

You end up like a dog that's been beat too much

'Til you spend half your life just covering up

 

[chorus:]

Born in the U.S.A.

Born in the U.S.A.

Born in the U.S.A.

Born in the U.S.A.

 

I got in a little hometown jam

And so they put a rifle in my hands

Sent me off to Vietnam

To go and kill the yellow man

 

[chorus]

 

Come back home to the refinery

Hiring man says "Son if it was up to me"

I go down to see the V.A. man

He said "Son don't you understand"

 

[chorus]

 

I had a buddy at Khe Sahn

Fighting off the Viet Cong

They're still there, he's all gone

He had a little girl in Saigon

I got a picture of him in her arms

 

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary

Out by the gas fires of the refinery

I'm ten years down the road

Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go

 

I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A.

Born in the U.S.A.

I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A.

Born in the U.S.A.
