The Bottle or Me
02:59
|
|||
|
Here we are once again
The signs are pointing straight ahead
The only place where this road leads
Your eyes are searching shelves again
Turn the night right up to ten
That lonely place that your heart needs
I tried so hard to tell you many times
You give great lip service but I can't keep playing blind
So listen to my voice
If you refuse to see
Tonight you've got a choice
It's the bottle or me
Patiently I waited
For a change to come around
A little piece of peace for you and me
But you'd rather have your Johnny Red
Send me off alone to bed
While you're busy staying up til half past three
Oh the wheels fell off this wagon long ago
These teardrops on my pillow they're not just there for show
So listen to my voice
If you refuse to see
Tonight you've got a choice
It's the bottle or me
Tonight you've got a choice
It's the bottle or me

Last Stop
02:02
|
|||
|
It's a coffee cup when the sun comes up
Til you hit the hay at the end of the day
Cause it's the nights that take the daylights out of you
It's ninety-plus even in the shade
A hundred debts yet to be paid
It's a very particular shade of evening blue
Well it's the last stop
Last stop for eating
You might want to sit down or grab something to go
Yeah it's the last chance
Last chance for sleeping
You won't see another bed til after Sunday's show
Crack a beer when your plate is clear
And regret it all when they call last call
Every last decision that you made
Start to cuss in the back of the bus
Get a dirty mouth when you're heading south
Remembering all the wrong notes that you played
Well it's the last stop
Last stop for eating
You might want to sit down or grab something to go
Yeah it's the last chance
Last chance for sleeping
You won't see another bed til after Sunday's show
Because the morning don't come with warning
And God's forgiveness is only yours to know
And your salvation is probably waiting
In a little twin bed right after Sunday's show
Said your salvation is probably waiting
And God's forgiveness is only yours to know

Sugar Talk
02:50
|
|||
|
I call you candy
I call you sweet
But all that sugar
Is going to rot my teeth
You drip like caramel
Wherever you walk
You're like dulce de leche
You're my baby
And I love to hear your sugar talk
I never said loving
Wasn't sweet
But your kisses
Aren't safe to eat
You drip like caramel
Wherever you walk
You're like dulce de leche
You're my baby
And I love to hear your sugar talk
I call your name out in the street
My mouth is filled with cavities
But the biggest one is in my heart
This love is tearing me apart
But I love to
I love to hear your
You know I love to hear your
I love to hear your sugar talk

Tell Hell
04:19
|
|||
|
There’s no more friends to I can turn
There's no more bridges left to burn
There's no more asking for extensions
Only a road of good intentions
Take my message to the gate
I know I can’t outrun my fate
But that old devil’s gonna have to wait
Will you tell hell I’m running late?
Your face is cold your gun is warm
Your eyes are fixing on my form
There’s only one way out of town
My only direction is down
Take my message to the gate
I know I can’t outrun my fate
But that old devil’s gonna have to wait
Will you tell hell I’m running late?
You can take my soul
If it’s yours to claim
The clock is ticking
It’s all the same
There’s a one-way ticket
Reserved under my name
Just let them know
That I’m running late for that train
Take my message to the gate
I know I can’t outrun my fate
But that old devil’s just gonna have to wait
Will you tell hell I’m running late?
Will you tell hell I’m running late?
Will you tell hell I’m running late?

Dust Off
02:25
|

Hey there baby
Why so blue
Heaven help
who's crossing you
You look too lonely
For Friday night
You’re not smoking
You just need a light
We all need a light
We all need a light
We all need a light
We all need a light
You would be a deal at any cost
I’ll help you shake that dust off
The chance to change
Don’t come around
Everyday
Not in this town
What you’re hiding
The world can’t find
So stop pretending
You lost that shine
Baby stop pretending
Baby stop pretending
Baby stop pretending
Stop pretending
You would be a deal at any cost
You got to shake that dust off
Gonna help you shake it (Dust)
Gonna help you shake it (Dust)
Gonna help you shake it (Dust)
Gonna help you shake it

Making it Right
03:48
|
|||
|
I remember when you used to call me honey
I remember when my money was no good to you
All those nights that I listened in your kitchen
Said more about me than they did about you
You’re spilling me all your secrets
And now you want to tell me lies
You say its the end but
I know the reason you’re spending the night
I know it’s the season for making it right
I remember when you used to call me darling
In the time when there was just no stopping us
Making out in the back of a taxi
Now it seems we spend our days just trying to catch the bus
I thought I had all the answers
I guess it wasn’t black and white
I know it ain't easy
But I know the reason you’re spending the night
I know it’s the season for making it right
Now I find myself on the streets walking
Just waiting for the next time yo take me off the shelf
And don't you know I hear the people talking
Saying "hey man what you doing with yourself?"
I'm giving you all my heart now
And still you want to step aside
Keep giving me the business...
But I'll make it right
I'll make it right
I’ll make it right

You Put Your Name on Me
02:14
|
|||
|
You put your name on me
And promised me sunsets that I'd never see
Looking so expectantly
Looking so lonely, looking so free
It was just like easy money
Falling down from the sky
You always made me feel easy honey
From our first hello to our last goodbye
You put your name on me
You picked a place that no one would see
And drew your knife patiently
Away from the willows, out in the weeds
That's when I saw the reddest rubies
Falling down from the sky
It was all just a beautiful movie
From our first hello to our last goodbye

Only One Shot
04:21
|
|||
|
It's not what you got
It's just what you give
There's only one shot
This life that you live
There's only one purpose
It comes from above
Come dig out your heart
And fill it with love
Til it hurts
There isn't an angel
That's coming for you
Til you help out a stranger
And earn your wings too
Got to earn your wings
Spread peace like a dove
Baby open your heart
And fill it with love
Til it overflows
The rest of my message
Is more of the same
Don't blow all your blessings
Out chasing a flame
There's only one light
You know it shines bright enough
When you look in your heart
And it's filled with love
You're feeling just fine.
There's only one shot
So fill it with love
There's only one shot
So fill it with love
There's only one shot
So fill it with love
There's only one shot
So fill it with love
Because it shines bright enough
It shines bright enough
It shines bright enough
It shines bright enough
You know it shines baby
It shines baby
It shines bright enough
You know it shines baby
It shines baby
It shines bright enough

Safe as Sound
03:41
|

Every night's got to end
The morning light's got to come on
And I guess that that's okay
It's better that way
We got to clean up our messes
We don't want to face the day headless
You know you've got to eat your breakfast too
I guess we all do
But we won't get our breakfast in bed
Maybe when we're six feet dead
And we'll never get out of this town
Til we're safe as sound
Living in the air
We'll be safe as sound
Another thick trick takedown
A Second Avenue breakdown
You know I've been shook down before
It's hard to get off the floor
Another night's been wasted
Another dream not tasted
So many dreams so little sleep
It's getting hard to keep track
Of the surface, always so near
It's just never quite clear
And we're always left hanging around
Til we're safe as sound
Living in the air
We'll be safe as sound

Doctor on Call
03:57
|
|||
|
Down hospital hallways
Nurses watch me strut
You be the cleaner
Babe I’m the one who cuts
You catch me on Sunday
If you catch me at all
You know that every other day of the week
I'm the doctor on call
I’ve got a good disposition
Prestigious degrees
I’ve got more medicine
Than any man has ever seen
You catch me on Sunday
If you catch me at all
You know that every other day of the week
I'm the doctor on call
Lay down my instruments
Scrub down my hands
Pass me them gloves
So I can save the life of this man
You catch me on Sunday
Baby if you catch me at all
You know every other day of the week
I said that every other day of the week
You know that every other day of the week baby
I'm the Doctor on call

Living with Without
03:22
|

|
They say that good luck will always find the good ones
They say that grace will always find the meek
And if you searched deep in the driest desert
You’ll always find the water that you seek
But it’s hard to be a truck driving cowgirl
You're always saddling up or shipping out
It’s hard to stay warm-hearted in this old, cold world
It’s harder always living with without
Empty hands don’t always mean an empty heart
To a working man with only half his working parts
In the end we might be right back at the start
So close but still a thousand miles apart
The preacher puts his right hand on your forehead
Says he's got the thing you’re looking for
While his left hand's going fishing in your pocket
It's just the cost of walking through the door
But it’s hard to be a truck driving cowgirl
You're always saddling up or shipping out
It’s hard to stay warm-hearted in this old cold world
It’s harder always living with without
Yes it’s hard to be a truck driving cowgirl
You're always saddling up or shipping out
It’s hard to stay warm-hearted in this old, cold world
It’s harder always living with without

Bubbles
02:11

When you're down
Or feeling sad
And this old town
Has got you bad
Just look down
In your hand
Find the answer
Right in your glass
You know that bubbles
Will fix your troubles
When you're flat
When you're flat
Another dollar
Another day
Try warming up
To cold champagne
Wise man said
All things must pass
And things look up
Down in your glass
You know that bubbles
Will fix your troubles
When you're flat
When you're flat
You know that bubbles
Will fix your troubles
When you're flat
When you're flat
When you're flat
When you're flat
