Well, Hedy Miles with your stars turned green
and your cross feeling mean until you’re old
like a sap sucker country hole
Yes, Hedy Miles with your long wide breads
the kind that turn gray when you’re stoned
well, good-bye’s never coming home
Well, old man Joe when you see your wife
do you think twice about the law?
well the county clerk is down the hall
Cause you married young and you didn’t
foresee the weather being so down right cruel
to the face of your married love and you
Jacob John, well the sergeant said he shot people dead
in check and bones, from atop the giant concrete stones
yes, Jacob John, the sergeants dread has long been said
is the sun at dawn, for another battle is sure to come
Well, Hedy Miles as you lay amongst the trees
with your socks pulled to your knees, just like a nun
well, fire and brimstones never fun
Yes, Hedy Miles with the tops of pines drunk with wine
and driving home, you better stop them before they get thrown

Minds Eye
06:02

Well you saw her through the makeup
Now her head is on a plate
Cause your babies on to faking
Her grin gave it always
But your minds eye aint breaking
Your dreams are planted seeds
And the fairy dust has bee taken
And the god remember needs
You find yourself in a meadow
But you’re a creature that needs trees
You’re running from your worries
In search of Samaritan peace
But your minds eye aint breaking
Your dreams are planted seeds
And the fairy dust has bee taken
And you know the god remember needs
Yo’re steering hard toward Clovis
Got the pedal to your knee
You’re going to sell your sorrows
To a preacher man or thief
You visit lonesome Mary
She says she has some feed
You kneel down to kiss her
And she slaps you across the cheek
But your minds eye aint breaking
Your dreams are planted seeds
And the fairy dust has bee taken
And the god remember needs

Did Judy Blue Eyes Mess with you
Did she make you want to cry
The whole night through
Did you tell her h0ow you feel
The truth this time
Did you tell her that her love
Feels made sometimes
When you were just a child
She spoke to you
She said life had changed
For the both of you
Then she walked into the sky
And disappeared
Judy Blue Eyes your mother dear
Now she miles and mile and miles away from love
Judy Blue
Now she miles and mile and miles away from blood
And your mother too
Now you’re all grown
At least in size
And scars of being alone
Are well disguised
Cause Judy Blue Eyes will always be
A missing part of you a calamity
Now she miles and mile and miles away from love
Judy Blue
Now she miles and mile and miles away from blood
And your mother too
You see her once a year
When she comes to town
She whispers in your ear
I let you down
You tell her it’s okay
The past is gone
You tell it’s alright
Cause your heart is numb
Now she miles and mile and miles away from love
Judy Blue
Now she miles and mile and miles away from blood
And your mother too

Looking For Some Home
05:37
|

|
Why your miles from town where the police have no blame
And you hear a voice says you better stick to your “A” game
But you’re strong of mind with a sense of integrity
And you need to say why don’t you quit fucking with me
The jailer man why he don’t keep no pain
He don’t understand that the DA’s gone insane
And you hear his call but you don’t blink an eye
Cause you took the fall for some unknown imaginary guy
Now your looking for some home
Just looking for some home
You lay awake and you think about democracy
But it seems so fake in the twenty first century
It’s hard to say when you might be leaving this place
But you can thank the state for holding you without a case
Now your looking for some home
Just looking for some home

Will's Song
04:08
|

|
Your bodies aching for some more
You’re feeling lonesome cause
Your love is gone for sure
He took a right turn into the night
And left you standing without a
Chance to say good-bye
And now you cry
And you kneel
But in time
You’ll be leaving all behind
You think it’s early
Cause the sun don’t shine
You can see the Tuesday
In the Wednesday of his eye
You check the calendar
Its been a day
If things were different
You’d make it go away
And now you cry
And you kneel
But in time
You’ll be leaving all behind
You’re drinking nectar
From a soldiers boot
Its sweet as candy but the smell
Is killing you
The weathers turning
It starts to rain
You sit and listen
But you don’t hear anything
Cause you cry
And you kneel
But in time
You’ll be leaving all behind
You see a clearing
It’s up ahead
But it’s not righteous
Cause the words were never said
You call your angels
But they decline
To give you answers
As to who or what or why
So now you cry
And you kneel
But in time
You’ll be leaving all behind

Sold On The Pain
05:11
|
|||
|
Well I’m home in your sunshine
In your mountains
Along your seas
But you know I cant pretend
To be so blind to your demands
And play host to your sympathies
But you make me an offer
That I find so hard to refuse
Cause you know it wouldn’t be right
To leave you begging in the night
With your leggings in plain view
I’ve heard the word forsaken
But your pull makes it in vain
you know it wouldn’t be right to
steal you kindly in the night
when sadly I think we’re through
but you keep, keep mistaken
myself for the key
and you know it has been said
our love is broken
still our hearts seem sold on the pain
and the door, the door seems heavy
whether I’m knocking or saying good-bye
and you know I can’t pretend to go along
with you friend and act like I’m satisfied
but you’re giving
instead of taking and I know
that means a lot
and you know I know you know
our love is broken
still our hearts seem sold on the pain

Shine
05:11

I worked all day for the money
I worked as hard as I could
It took me hours took me hours to find it in me
Even my best was no good
Now I’m home and I’m tired
it’s your turn to shine
yes I’m home and I’m tired
it’s your turn to shine
My heart is down right lazy
There’s not much I like to do
But when I think about you
It’s funny what makes me move
Now I’m home and you look good
It’s my time to shine
Yes I’m home and you look good
It’s my time to shine
Well I’m home early from the races
The seven horse ran like a charm
I know the kid he needs some brace’s
Cause when he smiles it just looks wrong
Yes I’m home and I got mine
His turn to shine
Yes I’m home and I got mine
It’s his turn to shine
It’s four past four in some places
It’s only three past four right here
There ain’t no time to trade places
Might as well have another beer
Yeah I’m home and I’m not tired
It’s your turn shine
Yes I’m home and I’m not tired
It’s your turn to shine

In Lace From Rome
06:03
|
|||
|
You’re heading in nice and deep
And the days have sold you cold
And the nights have brought you more
But still you’re keeping warm
With flesh and blood
And babies dust
And tiny feet
And lovers lust
There’s a bottle on the street
It’s seen the lips of the poor
Who walk the morning light
Not afraid to sleep at your door
There’s no one home
where they come from
And dinner is just a stew
There was a man who was sent to teach
But he sat and stared at the wall
You asked him what he knew
But he turned and felt his jaw
He took from you
Your brightest days
And handed back
A blank page
You’re tattered and torn
And you’re lazy bones
You got your head at your feet
With inaccuracy
Now you’re telling all your friends
That the man you love is yours
But his mind is somewhere else
As he hands you modern bride
Your body aches
For him sometimes
As you lay awake
In lace from Rome

Song Of Joy And Sorrow

Song Of Joy And Sorrow
You hear the songs of joy
And you feel the saviors love
Once again
You need to recompense
To the jury and defense
For the truth was not revealed
You’re packing up your things
Yes your leaving everything that you can
And you’re showing no concern
For the lord will bring you worth
And take you by your hand
You’ve gone and made a deal
To be good and never steal
Like you’ve done
You promised not to stray
To read the good book every day
And kneel down, repent, and pray
But all the angels in the world
Couldn’t keep you from that girl
And her ways
She asked you if you smoked
And all it took was one toke
For you to lose your way
And the girl you call your own
She turned kind of cold
And she gave you subtle hints
That she was going to call it quits
But you paid her no mind
Cause you were smoking the glass pipe
She said you’re mine, you’re mine, you’re mine
and then she’s gone
Now you’re feeling mighty low
And you got no place to go
to spend your days
So you rob yourself a bank and you end up in the tank
This time, the jury sent you away
