What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
Don't the moon look good, mama, Shinin' through the trees?
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
People are crazy and times are strange
How did I meet you? I don't know.
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."
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,; That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
Last night I danced with a stranger; But she just reminded me you were the one
Now the rainman gave me two cures,; Then he said, "Jump right in."; The one was Texas medicine,; The other was just railroad gin.
Cities on fire, phones out of order
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
Wallflower, wallflower; Take a chance on me.; Please let me ride you home.
I could say that I'd be faithful, I could say it in one sweet, easy breath; But to you that would be cruelty and to me it surely would be death.
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
We stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right
When I'm all alone; In the great unknown,; I'll remember you.
Some things in life, it gets too late to learn
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,; Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
Oh it's rush hour now; On the wheel and the plow; And the sun is going down; Upon the sacred cow.
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore; You may not see me tomorrow.
Louise, she's all right, she's just near; She's delicate and seems like the mirror; But she just makes it all too concise and too clear; That Johanna's not here
Your cracked country lips,; I still wish to kiss,; As to be under the strength of your skin.
Those are the hill of heaven, my love; You and I'll never know
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
It's the ways of the flesh to war against the spirit; Twenty-four hours a day you can feel it and you can hear it; Using all the devices under the sun.
With haunted hearts through the heat and cold
We never thought we could ever get old
There's some people that; You don't forget,; Even though you've only seen'm; One time or two.
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind; You could have done better but I don't mind; You just kinda wasted my precious time
Every day of the year's like playin' Russian roulette
Build a fire, throw on logs; And listen to it hiss; And let it burn, burn, burn, burn; On a night like this.
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
I'd never say; That I done it the way; That you'd have liked me to.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
It's mighty funny; the end of time has just begun
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're gonna have to serve somebody.
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.
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
In the day of confession; We cannot mock a soul.; Oh, when there's too much of nothing,; No one has control.
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed; You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
But is your heart made out of stone, or is it lime; Or is it just solid rock?
We never thought we could ever get old.; We thought we could sit forever in fun
You cast your spell and I went under,; I find it so difficult to leave.
The treasure can't be found by men who search
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town; This is the blind horse that leads you around
Time is all I have to give
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke,; How long must I suffer, Lord, how long must I be provoked?; Satan will give you a little taste, then he'll move in with rapid speed,; Lord keep my blind side covered and see that I don't bleed.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
If God's on our side; He'll stop the next war.
Just do your thing, you'll be king; If dogs run free.
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
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink; Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
