The Breeze

Wide eyes white lines
On down the road I slide
God willin' and the creek don't rise
I won't be home tonight
Hey don't that breeze feel nice
Don't tell em where I'm goin'
I'm just gone
Tell your mama you ain't comin home
Told your papa you ain't comin home
Hey throw your dog a bone
Don't tell em where you're going
You're just gone
You're flying high babe
You got to get low down
I'll pick you up mama
Sit your feet back on the ground
Hey babe
Can't you hear that sound
We didn't tell em where we were going
We were just gone

Waitin'

Good daddy, I’ve been waitin
All afternoon for your smile
Every second anticipatin
Heart beats fast just like a child
Surely I’ll embrace so grateful
Your lovin arms around me so tight
And I’ll be so sure and faithful
When you hold me through the night
My Mama she once told me
Find a man and keep em’ close
But that man he once told me
He’d rather choke than be tied to rope
So, I guess I’ll just sit here waitin
For your smile to turn on the sun
I’d rather be alone in the dark
Than my daddy walk in on someone
And I’ll say, “whoa, daddy, you got me good!”
And I’ll say, “whoa daddy, just like you could.”
Just hold me a little longer, I’m almost satisfied
Don’t go so soon while my tongue is still tied
And I’ll say, “whoa, daddy, I’m in trouble now that you’ve gone.”
So warm we lay asleepin’ safely through the night
When I wake I’s just a dreamin’ but the sun in shinin’ bright
So, I guess I’ll just sit here waitin for you face to shine a grin
Better safe with my daddy than some strange man to take me in
And I’ll say, “whoa, daddy, you got me good!”
And I’ll say, “whoa daddy, just like you could.”
Just hold me a little longer, I’m almost satisfied
Don’t go so soon while my tongue is still tied
And I’ll say, “whoa, daddy, I’m in trouble now that you’ve gone.”

I'm in my head again
What a big surprise
What a big surprise
This time it's different
This time it's alright
I feel fine
I'm peaceful man
But I get uneasy sometimes
Sometimes
Oh babe
Why you be so cold to me
Your chain
Eight karat gold but that ain't no diamond ring
You came
You want something to hold
but you can't hold me
I keep going in circles
I can't break the line
Can't break the line
I broke the spoke off the wheel
The wheel in my mind
In my mind
You are the lamb
I'm at your door
Can't you hear me crying
I'm crying
Oh babe
Why you be so cold to me
Your chain
Eight karat gold but that ain't no diamond ring
Your name
Better left untold
It makes no difference to me
Everything is cool
We're just having fun
Don't nobody know nobody even if they love someone

No Good
04:36

I’m no good so they say
You could give her the world
And she just gonna throw it away
Well, that maybe true, but I am nobody’s fool
And I’m gonna beat you to the punchline
Have fun doing it too
Know I’m gonna get there even if I turn black and blue
And as blue as I get, I ain’t never gonna quit
So, don’t you pity me, I don’t need sympathy
To cause needless atrophy, mainly, well, I just need a little peace
It’s really not that hard to read, so why don’t you go on and take a little look
And I’ll show you, I’ll show all of you
I didn’t do what they told you, but I got there, too
What I’m trying to say is
Don’t listen to all them, holdin back ain’t no way to live
So take a chance on me and I can’t promise you nice things but possibilities
A little regret I can live with but not even tryin is guilt I can’t rid
So, come on give it your all tonight, such a sad face it’s a horrible sight
So why don’t you go and take a step outside? I’d be very much obliged
And we’ll show em
Yeah, We’ll show all them
Everyday we are breathin
We are happy to live
Mmm..
Cheer up all you callus faces
Little bit of want goes so many places
And we’ll go
And we’ll try
And we won’t never be afraid to die

Ain't It Hard
04:04
|

Well ain't it hard sometimes
To untangle your mind
Don't you need something to help you unwind
Well I am here my friend and I will lend you a hand
Don't you know that I'm the only one who really understands
So I'll welcome you in and you confess all your sins
Sure enough you'll be back and we'll do it again
Then finally you sigh, say everything is alright
Don't you know that you're the only one keepin you up at night
I put you in your place
You put me in mine
It's easy to lose sight with your head so high
Don't ask for pity when you get right back in line

I'm tired of waking up with these aches in my head, pain in my back and a stranger in my bed.
"You know that ain't a way to live" is what my Momma said.
But still I keep wondering when it's gonna end.
You see it started way back when I was 17. My hair was fuller, and my face, it was clean. You see I got a fake ID and made my way to the bar.
See I took what I had, went and threw it in a trunk. No turning back, I just went on a drunk, yea, whoo!
Now when I get started I can't hardly stop until the bars close or someone calls the the cops. I say, please don't incarcerate me. Cause I'm on my way home, but I ain't alone.
Ever since I can remember I had a bottle by my side, it calms my nerves and eases my mind. Don't it steady my sh-sh-shakin' hands? I ain't off the wagon, I was never on. Hey, pretty lady can ya drive me home?
Round and around, give me some more, I ain't gonna stop till I hit the floor. One of these days I might get straight, won't be tonight so you'll have to wait.
Everything I got, you know I'm gonna use it. And everything I got, I'm known to just abuse it, but I could still stand me a bit of abuse tonight. Ya see, babe, I ain't coming home until the morning light.
So now it's drinks all night and it's drinks for free. What are you havin'? That's a whiskey! Please. You know it still ain't easy for a good-timin' drunk like me. You see I drink some more and then I fall on my face, get back up and then I pick up the pace. So let's go!
Round and around, give me some more, I ain't gonna stop till I hit the floor. One of these days I might get straight, won't be tonight so you'll have to wait.

Long Gone, Anyway
02:27
|

When your heart quits and your blood won't flow
Tell me now brother
Where do we go
I know you think that you know the truth
Truth be told
You ain't got a clue
Yes we're helpless
Just you and I
But you ain't gotta be afraid to die
I know it sounds strange and it might be hard to hear
But you never know when your time is near
So carry on man
Do as you please
Cause your life is hanging on a breeze
But don't you worry
No don't you fret
You ain't gotta be afraid of death
When my time comes and it's my end of days
I'll just say goodbye
Smile and wave
By that time I'll be long gone anyways

Old Ways
04:39
|
|||
I’m gonna sleep outside your door
Until I see your eyes see mornin
What we do can only be done so naturally
And when the sun shines through the trees
And it’s only you and me
I hope you smile, I hope you say,
“I’m so glad you stayed.”
Wrap these arms around you
And fear fade with the dew
We’ll be alright at least for one more night
And I’ll show you hope you’ve been needin
Lessons never learned from teachin
But these wounds, they’re gonna heal up jus fine
And I know you’re tired of fighting
I’ve seen it in your gaze
You never did feel quite right
Reminiscing about your old ways

Can't Get Away
03:23

You do a little drinking, maybe get to thinking, you wish you were taking. taking a chance. With that girl. (But there's more in the world)
You know ya got one at home she's a-waitin' by the phone. Leave them girls alone, boy. You know, they ain't never gonna do. (Compared to you)
You know they second class, they just can't pass. Oh baby, come on give me some... love. (Yea mmm hmm)
Cause you, you make the sunrise,
And you, well ya make the moonshine
And you, you can't get away from me...Cause I'm coming on home to you, and ya just don't know what you're getting into.
I said hey hey baby, I ain't seen ya lately. I'm coming home and I've been missin you greatly. I hope that you've been true. (I don't know what I'd do)
Yea I'm glad you're mine, you're one of a kind. I wouldn't trade you for Dolly in her prime, you know that ain't no lie. (She just ain't my size)
Because you make me jump like I just hit a bump, when I get home you and me are gonna...cook. (And you can let the dogs look)
Cause you, you make the sunrise,
And you, well ya make the moonshine
And you, you can't get away from me...Cause I'm coming on home to you, and ya just don't know what you're getting into.

Blue Mosey #2
04:19

I got a lonesome heart and a restless mind
I do my best just to bide my time
I don't move too fast, it don't suit me well
When you move slow, I guess you're bound to trail
You're bound to trail
So what the hell am I supposed to do
I ain't got no friends, it's sad but true
It's like they found better things to do
I still get drunk and I raise some hell
But all my friends say, fair thee well
So fair thee well
Man, what the hell am I supposed to do
I'd make some plans but they'd all fall through
I'd put up a fight but I'm black and blue
I'm dying to win, but lord I was born to lose
Now it's one step forward and two steps back
A straw away from breaking my back
But I guess that's just the way it goes
All my favorite dives don't feel the same
And I don't know anybody's name
The same smoke-stained walls but it's hard to tell
We were ever here, they hide it well
They hide it well
So what the hell am I supposed to do

Hello mama
How are you
I seen you standin' on the corner with your brand new pair of walkin shoes
I hear you say you're leaving but I don't know where you're running to
So tell me darlin'

Did he hurt your pride
Did he find somebody new
Well listen here mama and I'll tell you what you're gonna do
You're gonna sigh
And ask why
You're gonna cry cry cry cry well crybaby cry
I hate to say it mama but you got what was coming to you
Hello babe
You're looking blue
I see you stepping in the same shit I just scraped off my shoe
Listen here mama and I'll tell you what you're gonna do
You're gonna sigh
And ask why
You're gonna cry cry cry cry well crybaby cry
Hate to say it mama but you got what was coming to you

Preachin' To The Choir

I'm gonna keep drinking till I sober up
I'll keep on taking till I get enough
I'll do as I please so don't you try and save me
I'll keep on laughing till I get the joke
I'm gonna swallow my pride until I choke
I'll do as I please so don't you try and save me
It ain't worth your time
I'll plant my feet right in the dirt
I'll grit my teeth until it hurts
I'll do as I please so don't you try and save me
I'm gonna paint my name across the sky
I'll stake my claim on what is mine
I'll do as I please so don't you try and save me
I've already tried
I'll keep on running till I can hide
I'm gonna tie it all up until I come undone
I'll do as I please so don't you try and save me
You're just preachin' to the choir
