It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun;
"I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,;
Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances;
My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
Don't trust me to show you beauty;
When beauty may only turn to rust.
Have I surrendered to the will of God;
Or am I still acting like the boss?
The country music station plays soft;
but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
I got new eyes ;
Everything looks far away
You say you love me;
And you're thinkin' of me,;
But you know you could be wrong.
Tell ev'rybody;
Down in ol' 'Frisco;
That Tiny Montgomery's comin';
Down to say Hello
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Darkness at the break of noon
I need a dump truck mama to unload my head
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
You were trying to break into another world;
A world I never knew.;
I always kind of wondered;
If you ever made it through.
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
What was it you wanted;
When you were kissing my check?
God is in heaven;
And we all want what's his;
But power and greed and corruptible seed;
Seem to be all that there is
Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
Was that the thunder that I heard?;
My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
