I can change, I swear, oh, oh,; See what you can do.; I can make it through,; You can make it too.
It's too bright a light, he said, "For anybody's eyes,; If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise."
They said it was the land of milk and honey,; now they say it's the land of money.; Who ever thought they could ever make that stick.
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
And now the heart is filled with gold; As if it was a purse.; But, oh, what kind of love is this; Which goes from bad to worse?
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
In the day of confession; We cannot mock a soul.; Oh, when there's too much of nothing,; No one has control.
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
Oh, some of us'll end up; In St. Cloud Prison,; And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
Run your fingers down my spine; Bring me a touch of bliss
I'm in a cowboy band
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag; Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag; Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove
You can pound on the President's gate; But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
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
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love; Where you and I will unite
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
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,; Should I leave them by your gate,; Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
All the people we used to know; Are an illusion to me now
He said his name was Columbus; I just said, "Good luck."
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
This wheel shall explode!
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,; See like me or be like me.
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
Don't trust me to show you beauty; When beauty may only turn to rust.
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
your pleasure knows no limits
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
She said, "Be easy, baby,; There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
I see people in the park forgetting their troubles and woes; They're drinking and dancing, wearing bright colored clothes; All the young men with their young women looking so good; Well, I'd trade places with any of them ; In a minute, if I could
it is not he or she or them or it; That you belong to.
Don't trust me to show you love; When my love may be only lust.
They say ev'rything can be replaced
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!"; I say, "I would if I could, but, ; I don't do sketches from memory."
Everybody's doin' something,; I heard it in a dream,; But when there's too much of nothing,; It just makes a fella mean.
It was then that I got up to leave; But she said, "Don't forget,; Everybody must give something back; For something they get."
Darkness at the break of noon
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
people don’t live or die, people just float
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed; Dignity never been photographed
