Ain't complaining 'bout what I got; Seen better times, but who has not?
Are you still my friend, baby, show me a sign
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells; I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
So long, New York.; Howdy, East Orange.
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
If this is love then gimme more; And more and more and more and more.
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
How did I meet you? I don't know.
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
It's mighty funny; the end of time has just begun
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,; If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,; When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
If there's a poor boy on the street,; Then let him have my seat; 'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
I don't need any reminder; To know how much I really care
Everybody must get stoned.
I just want you to know; I can see through your masks
And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
I've been hit too hard, I've seen too much; Nothing can heal me now, but your touch
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go; To the valley below
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea; Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
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.
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,; For the child that cries; When innocence dies.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
Lost time is not found again
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
When the last rays of daylight go down; Buddy, you'll roll no more; I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard; I wonder who they're ringing for
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
Some things are too hot to touch; The human mind can only stand so much
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do.; What can I do for You?
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
And every one of them words rang true; And glowed like burnin' coal; Pourin' off of every page; Like it was written in my soul from me to you
I'm in a cowboy band
Do you know where we're headin'?; Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced
The cause was there before we came.
