Does she know I still care?
Guess it's too late to say the things to you;
That you needed to hear me say.
I'm in love with the Ugliest Girl in the World
While my conscience explodes;
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts
There was music in the cafes at night;
And revolution in the air.
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love;
Where you and I will unite
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
No knife could ever cut our love apart
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,;
I saw what I wanted to be
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
How did I meet you? I don't know.
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells;
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
What makes the wind wanna blow tonight?
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
Seen the arrow on the doorpost;
Saying, "This land is condemned;
All the way from New Orleans;
To Jerusalem."
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
goodbye's too good a word, gal;
so I'll just say fare thee well
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Three fellas crawlin' on their way back to work,;
Nobody stops to ask why.
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,;
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
Do you know where we're headin'?;
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
Yes, I see you on your window ledge;
But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?;
Automobile comin' into style
