Low Yeah I got broken head Interference Lumpy neck Incoherent My gypsy wench disappered But I can't stand up no Help me out I'm feeling low I'm feeling low I walked in I can't get out Lift my hand I'm on the couch My gypsy went upstairs I can't make it there no I can't get up no Moaning low and wild eyed Give me another Moaning low and wild eyed Give me a another I laugh I cry I live Lord I just might die My gypsy wench disappeared I can't get on I cant get it up Moaning low and wild eyed Give me another Moaning low and wild eyed Give me a another Moaning low and wild eyed Give me another Moaning low and wild eyed Give me a another Low Give me another I'm moaning low Give me another I'm moaning low Give me another I'm moaning low

Paradigm shift Remove your shiff I bet you're just like butter Standing before me Am I your only lover Whisper to me Deliberate and warm The rain filled up the barrel The owl passed by Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Your shadow approaches In this stillness there is a war You're the green willow that sways Tearing my heart apart Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow A storm is coming Creeping over early June That's what I want Blow me away Blow me away Blow me away Blow me away Good things you have to wait for Midnight comes once a day Sunshine in December That ain't gonna last No Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow Move me slow

A Vow 03:23
lyrics
buy track
A sunken figurehead that's inscribed With a precious vow for all mankind And if you're ever at the bottom of the sea Please come back and read that vow to me There's a prison wall with a worthy creed A desperate plan on how to be free And if you're ever in that hole Please send it to me and help me save my soul There's a vow There's a wall There's a hole Help me through it all There are treasures buried deep All the riches More then you'll ever need And if I ever find that chest I'll take quarters for my eyes You can have the rest I'll take quarters for my eyes You can have the rest I'll take quarters for my eyes You can have the rest

In seventeen sixty-three With Cathrines love from overseas I grew from a lowly seed Fur trappers didn't want poor me I grew tall and strong Under the shadow of a devils thumb In eighteen and twenty-four They couldn't find fur no more My home was sold to Americans An acre cost just two cents I grew tall and strong Under the shadow of a devils thumb My roots taste rivers and sea My children moved south without me One day man came for gold Oh I want gold For that they left me alone Yeah I want gold Then oil found in Prudhoe bay Yeah I want oil For fifty years more I could stay Yeah I want oil I grew tall and strong Under the shadow of a devils thumb My roots taste rivers and sea The world changed all around me My brothers went on to the mill For bibles spars and window sills Cut me down and sawed my heart I ended up as Ed's guitar Standing there in my prime Cut me down two thousand nine Ship me down to El Cajon With ebony gold and abalone I want gold I grew tall and strong Yeah I want gold Now I'm glued to rosewood for a song Yeah I want oil I'll never taste the sea again Yeah I want oil I'm dried up and strung out since twenty-ten I'm dried up and strung out I'm dried up and strung out

Look at all those mountains Looking down at me I ain't done anything at all No not a goddamn thing Look at all those judges Looking down at me I ain't done anything at all No not a goddamn thing The sun is on the roof top The sun is on the field Something woke me up Blackbird riddle me The sun is on the rooftop The sun is on the field Something is coming for me But I don't know what it is Look at all this trouble Looking out for me I ain't done anything at all No not a goddamn thing Look at all these devils Looking out for me I ain't done anything at all No not a goddamn thing Moon is on my window The moon is on my mind Something keeps me awake Way past midnight Moon shines on the fires Moon shines in your eyes Somethings coming for me Its creeping up behind Its creeping up behind Somethings coming for me Its creeping up behind

Behind Every Good Woman 03:00
lyrics
buy track
There's a sunrise I remember that There was a bottle Took some time to realize You can't fight the past She was a determined heart I was shackled to the mast Behind every good woman is a bad man There's a hard job That I hammered at There's a scarecrow Pride is a weapon to be used against a man She's at home wanting and she understands Behind every good woman is a bad man Are you a bad man Are you a bad man Are you a bad man Are you a bad man There's blood in my eyes Salt in my wound Revenge in the plans of my hands There was cold steel Dark path Her voice calls my name Her voice calls my name Her voice calls my name Are you a bad man Are you a bad man Are you a bad man Are you a bad man Behind every good woman is a bad man Behind every good woman is a bad man Behind every good woman is a bad bad man

Closer 05:02

Hold me closer I'm down 99 fathoms Keep me from the bottomless hole Hold me closer So I can see something Then hold me closer a little more I see a glimpse of precious blue light Is it the end of day or end of the night Open my arms and wait for you to come in I got a great big bag of nothing for 95 cents Hold me closer I'm down 99 fathoms Keep me from the bottomless hole Hold me closer So I can see something Then hold me closer a little more I hard pressed and many years behind I know you know something but you love to lie How do I get to your dimension How do I leave behind hypertension Hold me closer I'm down 99 fathoms Keep me from the bottomless hole Hold me closer So I can see something Then hold me closer a little more I was sinking for reasons I can not define If I keep it clean I can testify Standing in this corner so I don't make a scene You're not close enough for me to come clean Hold me closer I'm down 99 fathoms Keep me from the bottomless hole Hold me closer So I can see something Then hold me closer a little more Take me to the doctor he check me through and through The doctor says boy theres nothing wrong with you Took me to a preacher he don't know what to say Can't help someone who doesn't want to pray Hold me closer I'm down 99 fathoms Keep me from the bottomless hole Hold me closer So I can see something Then hold me closer a little more Hold me closer a little more Hold me closer a little more Hold me closer a little more Hold me closer a little more Hold me closer a little more Hold me closer a little more Don't let go

Well I went back to the road It let me hot and cold Well I went back to the road It let me hot and cold I'm so surprised to see you once again now Well I went on to the wire It left me hard and tired Well I went on to the wire It left me hard and tired When you left I cried a little inside When you left I died a little inside I cut you out of all the pictures And I started a little fire I started a little fire I started a little fire I went to the Lord and called Didn't hear anything at all I went to the Lord and called Didn't hear anything at all I'm so surprised to see you once again now I went into the towns But everyones broken down When you left I cried a little inside When you left I died a little inside I heard footsteps door the car start And I started a little fire I started a little fire I started a little fire I came back from the lake Where I swam in my mistakes I came back from the lake Where I swam in my mistakes I'm not surprised that you're leaving once again now I'm not surprised that you're leaving once again now

Starry Skies 04:09

I don't use a bank Its just me and my dog The plains of Nebraska are behind me now I think of you When I play that guitar I ain't got a boss to tell me what for I'll lay beneath starry skies I'll lay beneath starry skies I give you my word And stick to my guns I'll come back next year in time for the corn In western Missouri I gave them some blood I ain't in a hurry to settle down I'll lay beneath starry skies I'll lay beneath starry skies Some ask why Some ask why Some ask why Some ask why And when I'm older and broken down I hope I saved enough to buy my own outright But for now I'll keep moving on I'll lay beneath starry skies I'll lay beneath starry skies I'll lay beneath starry skies I'll lay beneath starry skies Some ask why

I'm right here Like droplets of dew I'm right here The fool for you Like the cardinal that flies by But you're not looking at the sky I'm right here Like the north star I'm right here Trying not to try too hard I'm the tower safe from misery But you're headed back to sea I'm right here Standing at the edge I'm right here The winter that never ends I'm right here So young I thought I could wait I'm right here So young Maybe your heart would change I was the beacon searching the clouds But now I'm burning out Now I'm burning out Now I'm burning out I'm burning out I'm right here In the dust and the rain I'm right here But something has changed I was a feeling passing by But you're feeling with your eyes You're feeling with your eyes I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here

They Say 03:45
lyrics

The tents went up in a hurry I watched the whole thing from afar When the circus left three days later Papa finally put the shotgun down I followed a candlelight Deep in the woods I don't know why She was there in the leaves with my cards to read And I learned how I would die They say it don't be like it is but it do They say it don't be like it is but it do I learned to like dance hall girls Street-walkers were never for me One drove me nuts She was the Queen of Cups She said take me any way you want me They say it don't be like it is but it do They say it don't be like it is but it do Under a tree in Singapore A fortune teller looked at my hand She said you got bad luck That'll be five bucks You're just a fucking stupid man They say it don't be like it is but it do They say it don't be like it is but it do They say it don't be like it is but it do Is the whole world lying to me and you They say it don't be like it is but it do It hurts they say it don't be like it is but it do It don't be like it is but it do It don't be like it is but it do It don't be like it is but it do It don't be like it is but it do
