We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
I like the cool way you look at me,; Everything about you is bringing me; Misery.
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.
And if my thought-dreams could be seen, They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,; I saw what I wanted to be
Goodnight, my love, may the lord have mercy on us all.
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
I still can remember the way that you smiled
She said, "Be easy, baby,; There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
he not busy being born, Is busy dying
Have you got some unfinished business?; Is there something holding you back?; Are you thinking for yourself; Or are you following the pack?
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss; In the valley of the missing link
They used to grow food in Kansas; Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw.; I can see the day coming when even your home garden; Is gonna be against the law.
We pointed out the way to go; And scratched your name in sand,; Though you just thought it was nothing more; Than a place for you to stand.
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
You should be made; To wear earphones
How does it feel
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
Time is all I have to give
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
Could you ever be true?
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesn't it?
She's got everything she needs,; She's an artist, she don't look back
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,; That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
A saxophone someplace far off played
The night passed away so quickly; It always does when you're with me.
I'm in a cowboy band
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
Every day of the year's like playin' Russian roulette
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
No time to suffer or blink; And no time to think
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,; Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
It ain't my cup of meat.
The country music station plays soft; but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
How can I explain?; Oh, it's so hard to get on
When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
Temptation's not an easy thing
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
The walls of pride are high and wide; Can't see over to the other side; It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay; It's sadder still, to feel your heart torn away
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
Yesterday everything was going too fast; Today, it's moving too slow
As his youth now unfolds; He is centuries old; Just to see him at play makes me smile; No matter what happens to me; No matter what my destiny; Lord, protect my child
If this is love then gimme more; And more and more and more and more.
