You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last. But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast. Yonder stands your orphan with his gun, Crying like a fire in the sun. Look out the saints are comin’ through And it’s all over now, baby blue. The highway is for […]
Darkness at the break of noon Shadows even the silver spoon The handmade blade, the child’s balloon Eclipses both the sun and moon To understand you know too soon There is no sense in trying. Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn Suicide remarks are torn From the fool’s gold mouthpiece The hollow horn plays wasted […]
Gates Of Eden - Bringing It All Back Home
Of war and peace the truth just twists Its curfew gull just glides Upon four-legged forest clouds The cowboy angel rides With his candle lit into the sun Though its glow is waxed in black All except when ‘neath the trees of eden The lamppost stands with folded arms Its iron claws attached To curbs […]

Outlaw Blues - Bringing It All Back Home
Ain’t it hard to stumble And land in some funny lagoon? Ain’t it hard to stumble And land in some muddy lagoon? Especially when it’s nine below zero And three o’clock in the afternoon. Ain’t gonna hang no picture, Ain’t gonna hang no picture frame. Ain’t gonna hang no picture, Ain’t gonna hang no picture […]
My love she speaks like silence, Without ideals or violence, She doesn’t have to say she’s faithful, Yet she’s true, like ice, like fire. People carry roses, Make promises by the hours, My love she laughs like the flowers, Valentines can’t buy her. In the dime stores and bus stations, People talk of situations, Read […]
Maggie’s Farm - Bringing It All Back Home
I ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. No, i ain’t gonna work on maggie’s farm no more. Well, i wake in the morning, Fold my hands and pray for rain. I got a head full of ideas That are drivin’ me insane. It’s a shame the way she makes me scrub the floor. […]
She’s got everything she needs, She’s an artist, she don’t look back. She’s got everything she needs, She’s an artist, she don’t look back. She can take the dark out of the nighttime And paint the daytime black. You will start out standing Proud to steal her anything she sees. You will start out standing […]
