You know, the streets are filled with vipers; Who've lost all ray of hope,; You know, it ain't even safe no more; In the palace of the Pope.
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
Most of the time; I can't even be sure; If she was ever with me; Or if I was with her.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
Do you know where we're headin'?; Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love.
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
All right, I'll take a chance, I will fall in love with you
And they're breaking down the distance; Between right and wrong.
Whatever you gonna do,; Please do it fast.
I'm already there in my mind; And that's good enough for now
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
Rock me, pretty baby, rock me 'til everything gets real; Rock me for a little while, rock me 'til there's nothing left to feel; And I'll rock you too
You can make me cry; Never say goodbye
to live outside the law, you must be honest
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
I just can't fit; Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
If the bible is right, the world will explode
Just what do you think you have to guard?
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
How long can I stay drunk on fear out in the wilderness?
Our conversation was short and sweet; It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
She's a hypnotist collector
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,; I saw what I wanted to be
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
Every day of the year's like playin' Russian roulette
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,; I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
you remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
But I will be back, I will survive,; You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
You're the one I've been looking for,; You're the one that's got the key.; But I can't figure out whether I'm too good for you; Or you're too good for me.
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
I'll remember you; When the wind blows through the piney wood.
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
We heard the Sermon on the Mount and I knew it was too complex,; It didn't amount to anything more than what the broken glass reflects.
Turn your back, wash your hands,; There's always someone who understands
Every time you leave and go off someplace,; Things fall to pieces in my face
Oh my name it is nothin'; My age it means less
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances; My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced
The cause was there before we came.
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."
Because something is happening here; But you don't know what it is; Do you, Mister Jones?
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore; You may not see me tomorrow.
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
