How Many Times
04:07
|

Standing in the showTake it all away
Dinner and a movie, scrape the bowl
I’m never hungry and I’m never full
They make pills to ease the pain
But that ain’t the easy way
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
er till the heat runs out
Trash is on the corner where I put it out
Pills to take the pain
Walking through the Quarter with my hood pulled up
Don’t you stand beside me boys I got bad luck
Prayers to ease the pain
But I feel it all the same
Thought I hit the bottom but I’m falling fast
Tell me why is it so hard to make a good thing last
Praying no more rain
Won’t you spare a little change?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
Putting on a record, it’s my favorite song
Tell me why, tell me why did I wait so long
Where are you now?
Have you got it figured out?
Wrap your arms around me, you’re my only home
Getting closer to the ground, turtle bone
I thought I heard a sound
But there’s no one else around
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?
How many times will you break my heart?

Keeps Me Running
03:57
|

Strike a match and watch it burn
Now every single match will get a turn
First the smoke then flame appears
I can feel the fire drawing near
Smoke is filling up my room
As I write another love letter for you
Just for you
See the sun is sinking low
You’re going but you got nowhere to go
Walk the streets, you’re nowhere bound
Like the king of the underground
Now you’re calling me your friend
Setting me free to chase the wind
Chase the wind
Fire that keeps me, keeps me
Fire that keeps me, keeps me running
Sun is sinking, now it’s gone
But it’s coming back before too long
I’ll the hit the pavement, walk it out
Telling me what it’s all about
And all my friends are at the show
I’m going but I got nowhere to go
To go
Fire, looking back at me
Fire, tell me what you see?
Tell me how you burn so bright
Keeping me company tonight
Yes I’m calling you my friend
But every fire needs the wind
Chase the wind
Fire that keeps me, keeps me
Fire that keeps me, keeps me running

My Bad Mood
02:54
|
|||
Me and my bad mood
Don’t want to hear from you
I’m at a show, I’m all alone
You’re dancing up and down the room
Don’t you call my name
It only brings me pain
I see you found a girl with a fancy twirl
I guess that I should go and do the same
You know I’d rather be between the sheets
And with somebody new
But I can’t stop thinking ‘bout you and my bad mood
Me and my bad mood
Got nothing left to prove
Train jump track or a heart attack
Oh anything to get over you
Don’t you call my name
It only brings me sweet pain
You got your new blue jeans
And the girl of your dreams
I guess that I should go and do the same
Oh but I’d rather sing in harmony the way we used to do
Oh I’m getting pretty tired of me and my bad mood
Yes I’d rather be in company that knows me like you do
But I’m getting pretty used to me and my bad mood

Coyote Creek
02:51
|

Driving through the pines while the sun goes down
Shadows from the West and I’m Texas bound
Meet me in the middle at Coyote Creek
Gonna see my baby, said he’d wait for me
Pull off the highway on an old dirt road
I hit the brakes but I can’t take it slow
Coming round the bend I see the porch light on...
And I’m right back in your arms, oh yeah
Your everloving arms, oh yeah
It’s right where I belong
Right where I belong
Remember when we met on Highway 68
I saw you coming through the desert haze
You pulled your truck into the turnaround
I walked to you, but did I touch the ground
Some people say love’s a compromise
Then meet me by the canyon in the purple light
Meet me in the middle, baby, right or wrong...
Till I’m right back in your arms, oh yeah
Your everloving arms, oh yeah
It’s right where I belong
Right where I belong
I’m in your arms, oh yeah
Your everloving arms, oh yeah
It’s right where I belong
Right where I belong

Good Time
03:14
|

Make it happen, oh you know
You know I will
I saw the rolling hills of
Of Nelsonville standing still
Made it everywhere I said, I said I’d be
Oh now what is to become
Become of me
Turn and leave
It’s a good time
Having a real good time
It’s a real good time for bad timing
Now you’re packing up your
Your dirty clothes
You’ve been out so long it’s starting to show
A common rose
Now you’re lacing up your
Your walking shoes
It’s like you thought that they'd just give it to you
You've been schooled
It’s a good time
Having a real good time
It’s a real good time for bad timing, amen
Said you'd make it and you RSVP
Oh I can’t take it honey
Come see about me
You're so mean
Leave your trouble, honey
Right at the door
And leave your girlfriend too, ya know
She's such a bore, I love you more
And more
It’s a good time
Having a real good time
It’s a real good time for bad timing, amen

When You Go
03:57
|

She's a little mess, you watch her get undressed
As I lay me down to rest in his bed
Steady as you go with her down that road
And I hope to someday know what's in your head
You watch your spirit fly away into the sky
And you said you cried the whole way home
Well me, I kind of like this wild and stormy night
And I think I might just let you go...
But can I come with you
I want to go with you
When you go
Can I come with you
Please take me with you
When you go
Do you ever feel that none of this is real?
Maybe you're just in the other room
Well I hope you're happy now cause you gotta try somehow
We know that we can’t blame it on the moon
When I lost you that night the stars were in your eyes
Crying to each other in the street
Well I guess your little lie was the last of our goodbyes
And my friend I know someday we’ll meet...
But can I come with you
I want to go with you
When you go
Can I come with you
Please take me with you
When you go
Can I come with you
I want to go with you
When you go

Songs Remain
04:06
|

Picking up and dropping me off
Tell me did you ever fix your truck?
Lay me down in the afternoon
Go a little crazy when I’m in my mood
You know I love those songs you made
Wild rose in the pouring down rain
Day fire burning up in flames
To know you is to be forever changed
I am glad it was you who broke my heart
Black coffee and bacon fat
You're an inner city lumberjack
Yeah, a country boy through and through
I think that's why I fell for you
Oh honey look what you done done
I know you want it all, go have your fun
But letting go doesn’t mean you lose
Cause a part of me goes on with you
I am glad it was you who broke my heart
Cause it had to be you who broke my heart
You may not know a wild rose
Well she needs a lot of room to grow
So now I’m taking a look around
And let me tell you what I found
It's that all our songs remain
Wild rose in the pouring down rain
Day fire burning up in flames
To know you is to be forever changed
I am glad it was you who broke my heart
Cause it had to be you who broke my heart
You know I love those song you made
Wild rose in the pouring down rain

Mountaintop
03:34
|

Tie me to your love you know I cannot get enough
I want to change my way of living, try to be forgiven
Help me see the way you know I’m trying everyday
I cannot fight, I cannot rest, cannot cannot be my best
The only sound I long to hear
The only place I love so dear
Feel the wind on the mountaintop
How can I stop, how can I stop
Take me to your room you know I want to be with you
I feel alone, I feel afraid, I've had as much as I can take
Darkness settles in and I want one more night of sin
And don't you like the way I am, don't you want to be my man
The only sound I long to hear
The only place I love so dear
Feel the wind on the mountaintop
How can I stop, how can I stop
Tell me that it’s true you know I’m waiting here for you
I want to change my way of living, try to be forgiven
Count the ships go by, I’ll take another lonely night
Oh Mississippi never stop, take me to the mountaintop
The only sound I long to hear
The only place I love so dear
Feel the wind on the mountaintop
How can I stop, how can I stop

Are You Out There
03:05
|
|||
Sitting home alone on New Years Eve
Boom boom, fireworks exploding
There is no one that I long to kiss but you
No one I’m knowing
Now you’re out there, you’re out there
Are you out there, you out there?
Love was just an easy game we used to play
Who knew? Were you pretending?
But I really lost my shit, you know I fell for you
It’s never ending
Now you’re out there, you’re out there
Are you out there, you out there?
Sitting home alone on Saturday night
Boo-hoo, my candle burning
Light a candle for each time I ever dreamed on you
Oh how I’m yearning
Now you’re out there, you’re out there
Are you out there, you out there, you out there?

Without You
03:21
|
|||
Are you coming to my show?
9 o’clock it’s time to go
Tonight I’m sleeping on the floor, thinking about you
80 miles till we’re there
Windows down and dusty air
We’ve got some time to spare for a while
Good dirt road, now I know
All the places you would go
But I’m travelling alone, without you
Without you
Like a lock without a key
Bird without a tree
Lover please come back to me
Without you
Like a song without a name
Desert without rain
I know I should not complain
Shake some hands, load some gear
Hope we made some friends down here
I’d do anything to hear from you at all
When I fall asleep tonight
Let my memories hold me tight
Cause now you’re out of sight, on your own
I’m a cloud caught in the wind
Don’t let this be the end
How can I start again, without you?
Without you
Like a queen without a king
Diamond wedding ring
Honey we don't need those things
Without you
Like a lock without a key
Bird without a tree
Lover please come back to me
Without you
Like a song without a name
Desert without rain
I know I cannot remain without you
