Devil Tracks
04:04

I dug my grave- a long time ago
Met the devil at the tracks- lose your soul you aint coming back.
And I've got blisters on the soles of my feet.
I couldn't get up... let alone... let alone walk into next week.
Well I've seen kingdom come, and I jumped out the pews when I was young. Damned I saw the devil latching on. I swear if I dance quick enough, I will leave him in my dust. Im damned if I do, and I'm damned if I run.
I dug my grave- and I dug it deep
Left no space- to crawl on bended knees.
Deaf ears, they catch whispered prayers.
You lose your soul... well you aint coming back round here.
Well I've seen kingdom come, and I jumped out the pews when I was young. Damned I saw the devil latching on. I swear if I dance quick enough, I will leave him in my dust. Im damned if I do, and I'm damned if I run.

What If
04:39

Have you ever drowned love, woke up and were found
Underneath the waves pulling you down
Yes I remember drowning love, I drowned right down in your love- yes I drowned.
Weren't you the one dear with your hands across my neck
You kept me from screaming, "Get me out".
You whispered in my ear, "I'm here. Darling don't be scared, I'm right here".
And damn you for these hearts bleeding, damn you for these hearts beating , damn you for these hearts bleeding out.
Damn you for these hearts beating, damn you for these hearts bleeding, damn you for these hearts bleeding out.
Weren't you the one dear, who stopped me in my tracks
You made me the fool when I noticed last
yes I became the fool love, I became the fool when I fell fast.
Have you ever wondered, wondered what if- we moved to Vermont like those folk suggested.
And you'd work in the lumberyard, and I'd work in that crusty bar where we'd play. have you ever wondered, what if we said yes that day.
And damn you for these hearts bleeding, damn you for these hearts beating , damn you for these hearts bleeding out.
Damn you for these hearts beating, damn you for these hearts bleeding, damn you for these hearts bleeding out.

Road Blues Swing
03:11
|
|||
I got up and I hit the road, packed my bags and patched my soul
I got up and I hit the road, left my lover in the dust of home.
Keep your hands open for a dance, keep them legs closed from romance
Oh silly girl with hearts in your eyes, there's no time for love tonight.
You'll do-si-do with do you love me do you not
You'll two step with what you want and can't have
You'll slip back into a pleasant dream
We'll call this the road blues swing.
Broken-hearted with rambling hands is a poison for every good man
Broken-hearted with rambling hands, quick to swoon, not knowing where to land.
You'll do-si-do with do you love me do you not
You'll two step with what you want and can't have
You'll slip back into a pleasant dream
We'll call this the road blues swing.
I got up and I hit the road, packed my bags and patched my soul
I got up and I hit the road, left my lover in the dust of home.
Keep your hands open for a dance, keep them legs closed from romance
Oh silly girl with hearts in your eyes, there's no time for love tonight.
You'll do-si-do with do you love me do you not
You'll two step with what you want and can't have
You'll slip back into a pleasant dream
We'll call this the road blues swing.

Charlotte
05:14
|
|||
I asked you to kiss me, and you replied with a sadness in my eyes- said, "don't wanna got to Charlotte with you on my mind. You'll be on my mind."
Said, "You've got Charlotte and I've got the road, I guess we know how this is gonna go, it'll leave us with you hanging on my mind- you'll be on my mind."
While you sit with your guitar in hand, I will sit with my pen and my pad
Writing songs of what if, while we let the times past
And in some lifetime ago, I had met your wandering soul, and in that lifetime away I swear I coulda let you know me more.
What a time and what a thrill, wanting you with fervent will, how we wanted to love but our damn hearts wouldn't give
What a time and what a thrill I loved you with fervent will, how we wanted to love but our damn hearts wouldn't give.
Oh my love, oh my sweet. We both know sad songs are easier to do
So we stay seated in our two, we stay seated in our two corners, we stay seated in our two corners of the room.
I might be making too much of our night under the stars, by the golden corn kissing under the moon.
But in your eyes I saw this truth and for those eyes I fell for you, fallen angel you remind me love is true.
What a time and what a thrill, wanting you with fervent will, how we
wanted to love but our damn hearts wouldn't give
What a time and what a thrill I loved you with fervent will, how we wanted to love but our damn hearts wouldn't give.
Oh my love, oh my sweet. We both know sad songs are easier to do
So we stay seated in our two, we stay seated in our two corners, we stay seated in our two corners of the room.

Shoulda Gone Home
04:21
|

Pour the whiskey heavy, hell pour tequila too
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
Another dance, another bar, another regret nothing round
I shoulda gone home, instead of hanging with the crowd
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
Like dogs that run to fences they electrocute me too.
Mistakes are easier to make when you know you've done wrong
Easier to handle those stakes then going home alone.
No cup o' Joe waiting in the morning- no Joe is gone.
Feet all tired from dancing but the song goes on.
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
Like dogs that run to fences they electrocute me too.
Dear sweet, you bury your soul underground
Have each lover throw dirt then turn around
Dear sweet, you lose your soul in those sheets
And you're too afraid of love to speak
Those mistakes they make you weak.
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
I shoulda gone home instead of going home with you
Like dogs that run to fences they electrocute me too.

Mama Said
05:28
|

Baby, baby, baby please, I've got some questions to ask you
See I'm no good at these love affairs
And I'm wondering here if I'm what's wrong.
Darling put that dress down, you aint got nothing to prove
See mama told you, you was beautiful and see mama- she's no fool.
Well heart on your sleeve, you give, give, give everything
Well break it you say, this heart knows no last day
Just don't let me see you, don't let me see you walk away, walk, walk, walk away.
Baby, baby, baby please, I've got some questions to ask you
See I'm no good at these love affairs
And I'm wondering here if I'm blind or dumb
See mama said, they offer you the world, then they leave you at your front door
Oh mama said, mama said, I should listen to mama
Well heart on your sleeve, you give, give, give everything
Well break it you say, this heart knows no last day
Just don't let me see you, don't let me see you walk away, walk, walk, walk away.
Don't let me see you and don't let me see you darling, don't let me see you walk away
Well heart on your sleeve, you give everything
Oh darling, break it, break it, break it you say
Just don't let me see you walk
Just don't let me see you walk
Just don't let me see walk, walk, walk, walk away
Heart on your sleeve, you give everything, oh darling break it, break it , break it you say
Just don't let me see you walk
Just don't let me see you walk
Just don't let me see you walk, walk, walk, walk, walk away.
