I think I'146;ll quit my job today
Spend the money that I saved
I think I'146;ll build a boat for me
And sail myself across the sea
'Cause146; every night the sun goes down
The morning helps me come around
The coffee likes to chase the booze
The booze, it likes to chase the blues
I kept your picture in a frame
I kept your heart out on a chain
But hearts don'146;t belong on chains
And pictures ...
Well, I used to be an angel
I guess my wings got torn
I ain't seen nothing but bad luck and trouble
Ever since that I've been born
Ever since that I've been born
And I used to have a best friend
A girl for to be my bride
I had everything that a man could want
I believed, I was satisfied
I believed, I was satisfied
But as I come home one evening
The moon was hanging high
I felt something wrong,...
See the cars down below
How they go, they come and they go
See the fools, work all day
Fade away and they don't even know
It's a shame, it's insane
It's the world that's happening here
And it's hard to maintain
When everything is so insincere
Alice is on the rooftop
Alice is on the rooftop
There's a part in a play
That I swear was meant just for me
It's the part of a sailor
Who's becoming afra...
You can listen to the money
You can listen to your friends
But if you listen to your heartbeat
You might never go home again
You got 1000 miles
10,000 more to go
You got blood on the wheel
And you feel like everything's outta control
Well, maybe I'm just the foolish kind
Keepin' record of what I've left behind
Still I find there ain't nothing I can do
I'm getting closer to you
I'm getting clos...
Hey poor mama, what say you?
What say you this day?
Hey poor mama, where's your baby?
Lost and gone away
She went walking no goodbye's
She went wandering astray
Hey poor mama, what say you?
What say you today?
Cold black devil, left us crying
Left us crying in shame
No such heaven, heaven gone now
Can't go on this way
Listen to me, listen good
Oh, you listen good
Find a good man, strong and ab...
I was half asleep when I heard the news, sad words on the phone
I just couldn't believe my ears, I couldn't believe she's gone
I tried to make some sense of it, but sense I could not make
How a girl like her could go like that, it must be some mistake
Well, I'd known her since forever, as far back as I go
She always had an answer for the things I didn't know
She never hurt anybody, never did t...
Well I ain't interested in the clothes that you wear
In the car that you drive or the cut of your hair
Honey, you got something that I can't compare
And I've been thinking about you
I don't really care about the weather outside
And I don't want to talk about national pride
All that I need for to be satisfied is a
Woman who's nothing like me
Love is for fools, yes a fool such as I
And I can't t...
I operate a searchlight
From a tower through a window
Many hours I spend looking for you
Ever since you've been gone
So I've been looking for you, baby
Every morning and every evening
You never said the reasons
But you said we'd meet again
And when the storms that you once threw
Get thrown back at you
And you just can't stand to stand in your own skin
I'll let you in
Well, I control the weathe...
I'm not going to be civil
I'm not gonna watch my tongue or what I say
I'm gonna dance with the devil
Gonna shovel out dirt for stiff and shallow grave
And I'm so gone
Such a long long way from home
I'm holding out for something I can't feel
'Cause I'm so lost
Such a long long way from home
I'm holding out for something I can't feel
Hey did you hear about Vegas
She's got mouths to feed and only...
So much depends on first loves and friends
Legs for a table
I, I painted my room with judgments and doom
I still ain't able to sleep
Got to sleep and dream up some dreams I can keep
Oh my, my marigold, marigold
When I was walking at dawn when something turned on
But I couldn't name it
So I, I went back home, I did it alone
I couldn't claim it
I tried, yes I tried, I tried honey I was denied
Oh...
Well, I146;'ve been thinking, I146;'ve been thinking
'Bout some women that I know
Some believe me and some deceive me
And some I wish, I'146;d never seen at all
Where will you go now? Where will you go now?
Where will you wander? Where will you roam?
Where will you go when the sun goes sinkin146;'
And the morning brings a new day to be born?
Well, I can'146;t tell you, I can'146;t tell you
Whi...
Well, I ain't gonna ask you what you're doin' here
I know you got your reasons but honey, they ain't ever clear
And maybe it's just better that you never stay
I love you more when you're walkin' away
I ain't gonna ask you what's on your mind
It's hard enough for my own head to unwind
The world is gettin' smaller, each and every day
And I love you more when you're walkin' away
When you're walki...
