Late July
I heard life is what passes when you're too busy living
+
And love is at its finest when times are hard
+
And may your lady always keep you from the vices you've been after
+
May the Lord always love you where you are
+
I'm heading down the road I guess
+
Another good time I'll regret
+
But I wish that I was coming home to you
+
Late July, oh my, all in good time
+
Praying that my girl is fine
+
Sleeping in while rain falls on the roof
+
Hope your sunsets always bleed red
+
And your family's always well fed
+
And the song stuck in your head
+
I'm heading down the road I guess
+
Another good time I'll regret
+
But I wish that I was coming home to you
+
Late July, oh my, all in good time
+
Praying that my girl is fine
+
Sleeping in while rain falls on the roof
+
Heading down the road I guess
+
Another good time I'll regret
+
But I wish that I was coming home to you
+
Late July, oh my, all in good time
+
Praying that my girl is fine
+

Something in the Orange (Z&E's Version)
It'll be fine by dusk light I'm telling you, baby
+
These things eat at your bones and drive your young mind crazy
+
But when you place your head between my collar and jaw
+
I don't know much but there's no weight at all
+
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
+
'Cause if I say I miss you I know that you won't
+
But I miss you in the mornings when I see the sun
+
Something in the orange tells me we're not done
+
To you I'm just a man, to me you're all I am
+
Where the hell am I supposed to go?
+
I poisoned myself again
+
Something in the orange tells me you're never coming home
+
I need to hear you say you've been waitin' all night
+
There's orange dancing in your eyes from bulb light
+
Your voice only trembles when you try to speak
+
Take me back to us dancing, this wood used to creak
+
To you I'm just a man, to me you're all I am
+
Where the hell am I supposed to go?
+
I poisoned myself again
+
Something in the orange tells me you're never coming home
+
To you I'm just a man, to me you're all I am
+
Where the hell am I supposed to go?
+
I poisoned myself again
+
Something in the orange tells me you're never coming home
+
If you leave today, I'll just stare at the way
+
The orange touches all things around
+
The grass, trees and dew, how I just hate you
+
Please turn those headlights around
+
Please turn those headlights around

Heavy Eyes
Remember when David dashed
+
A twelve pack of Budweiser heavy for the road?
+
Two kids in the back, drunk off their ass
+
Screamin' in an old Bronco
+
And I recall what she said that she wanted me dead
+
But there ain't no grave deep enough
+
Remember all the nights we had?
+
You said it ain't so bad
+
Keep those heavy eyes looking up
+
Remember when Mary brought her own Jane?
+
Lucas thought he was gonna die
+
'Cause stars started fallin' out of a night cloud
+
From a clear Midwestern sky
+
I recall what she said, screamin' that the sky is red
+
It's burned into a younger man's mind
+
Remember all the days we had?
+
I'd say it ain't so bad
+
Keep those heavy eyes soft and kind
+
Oh, when I'm old, I will recall
+
All the nights we spent outlaws
+
But that sun is crestin'
+
And heavy eyes ain't born for restin'
+
Who's gonna drive us home
+
The boys and me? Our walking staggered vision blurred
+
One thing you'll come to know
+
The boys back home live for things like dead man's curve
+
I recall what he said, he'd rather be gone and dead
+
Than livin' like those sad folks in town
+
I can't take this soul with me
+
If I go, I'm goin' quickly
+
Keep those heavy eyes free and proud
+
Oh, when I'm old, I will recall
+
All the nights we spent outlaws
+
But that sun is crestin'
+
And heavy eyes ain't born for restin'
+
Oh, when I'm old, I will recall
+
All the nights we spent outlaws
+
But that sun is crestin'
+
And heavy eyes ain't born for restin'

Mine Again
You are mine again, every mistake that you made
+
All the people that you saved, took a little piece of you with them
+
You are mine again and I'm so damn glad you're here
+
Talking strong, sober and clear, like you couldn't back then
+
How many sad songs it take, to get your stubborn ass awake?
+
What finally got you rising from your bed?
+
Was it the sunset on her cheeks, leading down to her delicate collarbones
+
Or the judgement of your mind when you're alone
+
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been?
+
I've been struggling to get back to you
+
And if you fight all night, I'm sure you'll gain the guts to try
+
To get past the things that you've been through
+
'Cause no one plays the fool quite like you
+
Are those tires you got still turning?
+
Is that spirit you had still burning?
+
Do you still talk that shit the way you did before?
+
All the women and the wages and the wars that I've been waging
+
I just don't feel like fighting anymore
+
Mine again, my fondest friend where the hell you been
+
I've been struggling to get back to you
+
And if you fight all night, I'm sure you'll gain the guts to try
+
To get past the things that you've been through
+
'Cause no one plays it cool quite the way you
+
Mine again, so head back home and be who you know you can
+
Mine again, so don't be so cruel and play God with all his plans
+
Well, I am mine again, every mistake that I made
+
And I ain't ashamed to say who the hell I am
+
'Cause I am mine again and I'm so damn glad I'm here
+
Talking strong, sober and clear, like I couldn't back then

Happy Instead
Well, I've been pacing this room for forty hours
+
Crawling up the walls and trying not to call
+
And I saw you walking in a supermarket aisle
+
I didn't say a word 'cause you had the biggest smile
+
And I've been thinking of you in the morning time
+
You woke me up so soft, I forgot the world ain't kind
+
I'd pull you in and you'd kiss me through a grin
+
And you'd say you missed me when you were busy sleeping
+
But what if I said, happy instead
+
Is the way that I reckon it should be
+
And if you'd call, you'd say that you're okay
+
And I'd be wishing I was there
+
'Cause you're happy instead, happy instead
+
And I've been dreaming of the life we woulda had
+
Happy at times but mostly just mad
+
Maybe it'll worked out, maybe it'd been fine
+
But every day your smile ain't showing seems a waste of time
+
So what if I said, happy instead
+
Is the way that I reckon it should be
+
And if you'd call, you'd say that you're okay
+
And I'd be wishing I was there
+
'Cause you're happy instead, happy instead
+
And it's been ten years, I haven't called you once
+
But you called last night and my child up and jumped
+
He asked who you were and you did the same
+
Handed me the phone and I couldn't recall your name
+
What if I said, happy instead
+
Is the way that I reckon I should be
+
And if you'd call, you'll hear that I was okay
+
And you'd be wishing you was there
+
'Cause I'm happy instead, happy instead
+
What if I said, happy instead
+
Is the way that I reckon I should be
+
And if you call, you'd hear that I'm okay
+
And you'd be wishing you was there
+
'Cause I'm happy instead

Right Now The Best
(Okay, one take, one take)
+
This whole world's always waiting on tomorrow
+
Itching, fiending for whatever happens next
+
But what if I told you they're all lying
+
And I love you for who you are right now, the best
+
Everyone thinks they're going the wrong way
+
But they're looking at their maps all wrong
+
'Cause everywhere somewhere to someone
+
And in a rush, you cannot dance to smooth slow songs
+
So, I'm gonna slow on down, someway, somehow
+
Today ain't different from the rest
+
And the you that I pine for, oh, the you that I need
+
Oh, the you of right now is the best
+
This hating heart healed by the hopeful
+
And I think I got a song that you'll like
+
It's awfully long and such a throatful
+
But it's perfect for a night like tonight
+
About you on the coast in water
+
Those wild waves crash cross your skin
+
One of those days you miss already
+
And it ain't even have the damn chance to end
+
And I think grandfather's gone crazy
+
He keeps rambling on about way back when
+
Bragging 'bout grandma and war times
+
All the friends that he's lost once again
+
So I'm gonna slow on down, someway, somehow
+
Today ain't different from the rest
+
Oh, the you that I pine for, the you that I need
+
Oh, the you of right now is the best
+

The Outskirts
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
+
Come around sundown to hear the sound
+
Kids and the crickets under pinky skies
+
Swing on by 'cause we're drinking tonight
+
Well, in my mind, trees line the drive
+
There's a kind, loving lady barely laughing inside
+
And in the morning while we're drinking brew
+
She'll say, "The city ain't nothing like the outskirts with you"
+
And fireflies and some scheming eyes
+
Will turn this house into a home
+
Then we'll grin in the driveway
+
Hell, your smile outdoes the dawn
+
Hold on, hope is on the way
+
I'll take you to the outskirts one day
+
Well, I want a home on the outskirts of town
+
Where the wind chimes sing to the porch swing crowd
+
June into August, August to May
+
With the sun beating down or the snow in the way
+
The smell of fresh cut grass in the yard
+
I don't care who you are, drink a fifth, bring your heart
+
You put down the tailgate, I'll put down a tune
+
'Cause out in the 'skirts we move and shake with the moon
+
With fireflies and some scheming eyes
+
We'll turn this house into a home
+
Then we'll grin in the driveway
+
Hell, your smile outdoes the dawn
+
Hold on, hope is on the way

+
I'll take you to the outskirts one day

Hold on, hope is on the way
+

Younger Years
(Two, one, two, three, four)
+
Johnny's in the drive and he's drinking again
+
Rough crowd downtown but they're all my friends
+
By the end of the night I won't recall my name
+
Well, my Levi jean queen, I've been here all night, see
+
Someday I'll take you somewhere it never rains
+
But for right now I'm tearing down this town
+
How being young is so painful and strange
+
Deborah's on the bar and she's dancing again
+
To an old folk song that reminds her of him
+
She ain't getting down 'til they carry her away
+
She was his Levi jean queen but he's long gone now, see
+
At the end of the night she'll get choked up by his name
+
And she'll try her best just to let him go
+
Well, she's sick and tired of his rough and younger ways
+
Letting go, moving on, keeping strong and finding God
+
I find it awfully odd we made it here
+
A few good friends on the longest night, getting high until we cry
+
Enjoying all the pain of younger years
+
And now I'm drunk and walking home all alone, my honey
+
Looking for a better place to spend my money
+
Like taking my Levi jean queen to see the stars
+
Tougher than a lover and leaner than a fighter
+
Looks to me we got another all nighter
+
I think God put us exactly where we are
+
Letting go, moving on, keeping strong and finding God
+
I find it awfully odd we made it here
+
A few good friends on the longest night, getting high until we cry
+
Enjoying all the pain of younger years
+
Enjoying all the pain of younger years
+
Well, Johnny's in the drive and he's drinking again
+
Rough crowd downtown but they're all my friends
+
By the end of the night I won't recall my name

How being young is so painful and strange
+
Deborah's on the bar and she's dancing again
+
To an old folk song that reminds her of him
+
She ain't getting down 'til they carry her away
+
She was his Levi jean queen but he's long gone now, see
+
At the end of the night she'll get choked up by his name
+
And she'll try her best just to let him go
+
Well, she's sick and tired of his rough and younger ways
+
Letting go, moving on, keeping strong and finding God
+
I find it awfully odd we made it here
+
A few good friends on the longest night, getting high until we cry
+
Enjoying all the pain of younger years
+
And now I'm drunk and walking home all alone, my honey
+
Looking for a better place to spend my money
+
Like taking my Levi jean queen to see the stars
+
Tougher than a lover and leaner than a fighter
+
Looks to me we got another all nighter
+
I think God put us exactly where we are
+
Letting go, moving on, keeping strong and finding God
+
I find it awfully odd we made it here
+
A few good friends on the longest night, getting high until we cry
+
Enjoying all the pain of younger years
+
Enjoying all the pain of younger years
+
Well, Johnny's in the drive and he's drinking again
+
Rough crowd downtown but they're all my friends
+
By the end of the night I won't recall my name

Cold Damn Vampires
Them damn, cold vampires, been keeping me awake
+
Tryna' build an empire of things that they can take
+
But don't let em' steal your hope child
+
And turn it something green
+
Damn you and damn all your ties to this machine
+
You moved to the city girl
+
To make something of yourself
+
But them vampires are groping you every night on East and 12th
+
So every night you carry, a knife and some spray
+
To keep them blood suckers at least a four inch blade away
+
Then damn, cold vampires
+
Tryna' build an empire of the things that they can take
+
But don't let em' steal your hope child
+
And turn it something green
+
So damn you, and damn all your ties to this machine
+
Your ties to this machine
+
Well, so you want to be an artist
+
Make something that makes sense
+
'Cause them vampires will take every ounce of the blood that you can give
+
And don't let em' tell a lie
+
Let 'em know that you're walking alone to a warm home tonight
+
Then damn, cold vampires
+
Tryna' build an empire of the things that they can take
+
But don't let em' steal your hope child
+
And turn it something green
+
Damn you, and damn all your ties to this machine
+
But there's hope for the mortal to stay clear and stay true
+
So look out for the vampires that are on the hunt for you
+
'Cause they're on the hunt for you
+
Then damn, cold vampires
+
Tryna' build an empire of things that they can take
+
But don't let em' steal your hope child
+
And turn it something green
+
Damn you, and damn all your ties to this machine
+
Your ties to the machine

Tishhomingo
Well I don't think that the city moves slow enough for me
+
So I'm gonna leave now and I ain't showing no warnings
+
And I know that mama said that love'll always lead you home
+
But I been following this lonely road for way too long
+
So won't you pray for me tonight?
+
I've been heading down a dark cold road
+
I've been dreaming of a porch swing with some lights
+
Hoping I can find myself back home
+
Now I'm breaking horses out in Tishomingo
+
And every night I lie there and wonder where good men's dreams go
+
And most nights I wonder how far train cars can travel
+
Or how far a man can go before one's truly unraveled
+
So won't you pray for me tonight?
+
I've been heading down a dark cold road
+
And I've been dreaming of a porch swing with some lights
+
Hoping I can find myself back home
+
Don't jump in so quick kid, you're gonna wind up hurt
+
She's with a new man in New York the last time I heard
+
And I know that mama said that love'll always lead me home
+
But I been following a lonely road for way too long
+
So won't you pray for me tonight?
+
I've been heading down a dark cold road
+
I've been dreaming of a you by my side
+
Praying I can get myself back home

Shes Alright
Well the moon in New York tonight was beautiful
+
Wish you were around to see it too
+
I'm so happy I could cry
+
Why'd you'd have to go and die like that
+
Its hard when people ain't around to see
+
The smiles that they nurture, the smiles that they breed
+
These people don't know me
+
And I don't feel like showing what I've seen(Verse 2)
+
And I threw up on a corner in Philadelphia
+
She said boy there ain't no real point in helping ya'
+
The only thing you've ever owned was high hopes and a pocket comb
+
Don't act like you know who I am
+
Cause the more I explain the less you understand
+
Those assholes downtown, are the only ones around that even try
+
Cause she's still smiling
+
These city lights would blow mamas mind
+
And the more I search the less I find
+

You Are My Sunshine
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
+
You make me happy when skies are gray
+
You'll never know dear how much I love you
+
So please don't take my sunshine away
+
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
+
I dreamt I held you in my tired arms
+
When I awoke dear, I was mistaken
+
So I bowed my head and I cried
+
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
+
You make me happy when skies are gray
+
You'll never know dear how much I love you
+
So please don't take my sunshine away
+
I've always loved you, made you happy
+
And nothin' else could come between
+
But now you've left me to love another
+
And you shattered all my dreams
+
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
+
You make me happy when skies are gray
+
You'll never know dear how much I love you
+
So please don't take my sunshine away
+
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
+
You make me happy when skies are gray
+
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
+
So please don't take my sunshine away

Darling
Won't you hold me through the shakes darlin'?
+
Well, it's fine if you cut and run
+
At first light of a cresting sun
+
And if you're still in town
+
When my better days roll around
+
We'll heat this ground and dance like two hearts bleedin'
+
The city is so loud and the hotel kicked me out
+
Do you think that she's still proud of lookin' down
+
The world got so confusin' I'm a tool for cheap amusement
+
And they all hate me from here to Tennessee
+
So hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take
+
There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me
+
Hold me through the shakes, although its more than you can take
+
And when you wake you'll still be my darling
+
And when you wake I'm yours to take, darling
+
Let me have my bloody knuckles
+
All my nights of dark cold trouble
+
When I was through I was hopin' you might wait for me
+
Something I don't understand
+
How I am just a man, my darling
+
With a postcard I could send ya
+
But I don't know of any good it'd do
+
So I'll photograph the lights
+
'Cause they remind me of your eyes
+
And pray for you until I untangle this blue
+
But hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take
+
There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me
+
Hold me through the shakes, although its more than you can take
+
And when you wake you'll still be my darling
+
When you wake I'm yours to take, darling
+
Well, hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take
+
There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me

Hold me through the shakes, although its more than you can take

And when you wake you'll still be my darling
+
When you wake I'm yours to take, darling

Ninth Cloud
Look at me, so damaged and destroyed
+
With this world's plans and its ploys to take me out
+
I'm on a highway directly to the moon
+
With no plans on stopping soon, I'm leaving town
+
Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
+
No Heaven's could top this moment now
+
My foot out the window and my flask halfway full
+
I may have to pull over soon
+
I can't afford a motel, but the floorboards will work well
+
I'll sleep there 'til tomorrow afternoon
+
Then I'll get on the road again, had another chance at fittin' in
+
But fittin' in to kids like me is dyin'
+
But I know when I'm with you
+
After one shot or twenty-two and a cigarette, I'll feel like I'm flying
+
Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
+
No Heaven's could top this moment now
+
I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud
+
You must trek through some dark and troubled ground
+
Just once or twice, once in this life, just look around
+
'Cause usually I'm a wreck
+
But the hard times were just a step to get where I am on this ninth cloud
+
And we're singing, feeling good again
+
I'm talking like the sun'll never rise
+
But the sun will crest the trees and bring this devil to his knees
+
As it outlines the silver in these skies
+
Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
+
No Heaven's could top this moment now
+
I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud
+

Oklahoma City
Old friend, it's been awhile, and I ain't spoke to you in years
+
And often times boys from this town put wheels down and disappear
+
Mrs. Cole asked about you just three days back
+
And I had no answer to give her
+
I told her that you moved way out West to write some songs
+
And grow a little more bitter
+
The kids talk about you around here like you're some kind of legend
+
I wonder if they know a thousand sunrises ago you were eager just like them?
+
But if you ever decide to bring your pain
+
And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
+
There'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
+
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
+
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
+
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you, or the fear of new hellos?
+
Won't stay long 'cause you won't stop your running
+
Wait for tomorrow 'til tomorrow's not coming
+
Heard you landed in Tulsa while he slipped away
+
Is that the reason your fleeing the fields we hauled hay?
+
Heat this July or the dark last December
+
Look in my eyes and you might remember
+
Weed out in Norman, the Stillwater strip
+
Run far enough boy and you're bound to trip
+
But if you ever decide to bring your pain
+
And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
+
There'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
+
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
+
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't

Sun To Me
5:34 AM, I was about to start my day
+
But she laid there across me, so I stayed anyway
+
Arms tied, legs numb, her wrapped around my knee
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
I don't recall what you were wearing on the first night we met
+
Besides the subtle cloud around you from my last cigarette
+
And you come from a good place with a happy family
+
The only bad you've ever done was to see the good in me
+
'Cause I've been living, waiting on the day
+
That the good Lord, willing sends you out my way
+
I've seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
And I remember being younger and my mother told me true
+
Find someone who grows flowers in the darkest parts of you
+
Take heed when things get hard and don't you ever turn around
+
'Cause you'll find someone, someday, somewhere that grows you to the clouds
+
And you walked me home that evening when I could barely walk
+
And you spoke to me so sweetly on the days I couldn't talk
+
And now I'm seeing clearly and I'm growing up so free
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
'Cause I've been living, waiting on the day
+
That the good Lord, willing sends you out my way
+
I've seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me

5:34 AM, I was about to start my day
+
But she laid there across me, so I stayed anyway
+
Arms tied, legs numb, her wrapped around my knee
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
I don't recall what you were wearing on the first night we met
+
Besides the subtle cloud around you from my last cigarette
+
And you come from a good place with a happy family
+
The only bad you've ever done was to see the good in me
+
'Cause I've been living, waiting on the day
+
That the good Lord, willing sends you out my way
+
I've seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
And I remember being younger and my mother told me true
+
Find someone who grows flowers in the darkest parts of you
+
Take heed when things get hard and don't you ever turn around
+
'Cause you'll find someone, someday, somewhere that grows you to the clouds
+
And you walked me home that evening when I could barely walk
+
And you spoke to me so sweetly on the days I couldn't talk
+
And now I'm seeing clearly and I'm growing up so free
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
'Cause I've been living, waiting on the day
+
That the good Lord, willing sends you out my way
+
I've seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me
+
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how you're the sun to me

Highway Boys
Highway boys on the road tonight
+
Got a gig out at the Ryman
+
Finally learned the hard way that
+
All good things take time, friend
+
I heard they'll pay a lost soul
+
That make a southern boy cry or
+
Turn a northeast man confused
+
And I awoke with a fever
+
There's mirrors in hotel rooms
+
But I do not recognize them
+
Maybe it's the feelin' that I get in my sleep
+
That all the memories in my mind
+
I wanna ride that K-10 to way back when
+
Sleep next to the river, hear it rushin' again
+
Get my no good soul back to where it belongs
+
And do my best to keep truth in songs
+
And do my best to keep truth in songs
+
And all of my old friends miss having me around, but
+
Highways work both ways
+
And I can't stand the liars in town
+
If you need me you can find me
+
Slightly out of control
+
'Cause Highway boys don't rest
+
And don't hang hats 'til they're home
+
Highway boys on the road tonight
+
Got a gig out at the Ryman
+
They finally found out the hard way
+
That this sound I got is mine, man
+
So, if you need me call
+
If you're in love, fall
+
Just know that highway boys
+
Don't stick around at all
+
I wanna ride that K-10 to way back when
+
Sleep next to the river, hear it rushin' again
+
Get my no good soul back to where it belongs
+
And do my best to keep truth in songs
+
And do my best to keep truth in songs
+
Highway boys on the road tonight
+
Got a gig out at the Ryman
+
They finally found out the hard way
+
That this sound I got is mine, man

Whiskey Fever
Four, three, one, two, three, four
+
Got a whiskey-drinkin' fever that I cannot shake
+
And those girls downtown are more than I can take
+
High-waisted rockies and the sailor's mouths
+
And the boys in the back of the bar screamin' loud
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
And I smell like cologne and cigarettes
+
But I ain't found a lady or a bar fight yet
+
I'll wait around just to stir shit up
+
That whiskey river flowin' ain't ever enough
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
'Cause I'm a heavy drinkin', hard hittin' good ol' boy
+
There ain't a man in this county that can keep me employed
+
Can't stay sober past 11 AM
+
My breath smells like my regrets again
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
I had a woman in Wisconsin and a woman in Maine
+
But they told me that they'd never love a man so insane
+
I head to Oklahoma with the flask and a comb
+
Do my best to find another place I can roam
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
There was no one in town that would give me a ride
+
So I waited for my heavy drunkenness to subside
+
Stole a pick-up truck from a gas station pump
+
I pray to the Lord for a run of good luck
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
And I was four hundred miles down Highway 10
+
All of a sudden I was arrested again
+
They told me eight years in the county pen
+
Or eight years in the army killing evil men
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
Now there's sand in my boots, sand in my eyes
+
Sand everywhere that sand can hide
+
How I miss those downtown girls
+
And that whiskey river that ruined my world
+
Oh, Uncle Sam, I wanna go home
+
I had a whiskey-drinkin' fever that I could not shake
+
And those girls downtown were more than I could take
+
Their high-waisted rockies and the sailor's mouth
+
Boys in the back of the bar screamin' loud
+
Oh, whiskey river, take me home
+
Oh, whiskey river, I wanna go home
+
(That take f*ckin' ripped, dude)

Billy Stay
Billy won't you stay, we've been up all night
+
Talking 'bout flowers from '65
+
That print on that dress that you always liked
+
We were young enough to go out and dance at night
+
We'd cross the street and you'd hold my hand
+
Same man now that you were back then
+
Young kids good for nothing but high hoping
+
Broken, starving plastic ring
+
Years went by fast, you were so good to me
+
Our children have children, Billy, how could it be
+
But ninety years is nothing to some kids like us
+
So baby, stick around and tell a story just because
+
Lately, you've been slipping in and out
+
Tell me 'bout that girl you dreamed about
+
Tell me of the lovers who once were
+
Tell me 'bout that girl and how you loved her
+
Billy don't forget, won't you keep on tryin'
+
I'll keep my ears open to keep from crying
+
You're more handsome now than you were back then
+
And I'm the same girl you fell for when we were kids
+
If love was enough then you'd stay forever
+
But I guess sometimes that the end is better
+
'Cause love turns to loss as the time goes by
+
You don't know your own name but you know mine
+
Lately you've been slipping in and out
+
Tell me 'bout that girl you dreamed about
+
Tell me of the lovers who once were
+
Tell me 'bout that girl and how you loved her
+
And you went back home in your sleep last night
+
And I heard you whisper, "I love you, goodbye"
+
But maybe your Heaven's 1965
+
With my hair in your face on a long summer drive
+
To me you'll never be the times you forgot
+
But all of our good times and flowers the you bought
+

Sober Side of Sorry
Dark haired girl, too much Jack Daniels
+
I'll be honest right now, I'm too drunk to handle
+
Dark brown eyes, and a neck tattoo
+
I am next to you but I'm a thousand miles away
+
Wildflowers picked on a hillside, you just let die
+
That's where I learned decay
+
People come, then they stay then they go
+
Someone please let me know, when growing up grew so old
+
'Cause the sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to be
+
There's a cigarette rolling through the tips of clenched teeth
+
I don't need much just somewhere to sleep
+
Someone please remind me who the hell I used to be
+
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to sleep
+
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to be
+
Dark haired girl, summer time crop top
+
And her '89 drop top, rolling eyes at me
+
Is it love? Is it lust? Or leaving?
+
Am I awake or dreaming?
+
Wildflowers and a neck tattoo
+
I am next to you and I ain't ever gonna stay
+
I remember a time I was sober but those days are over
+
I need a beer to celebrate
+
'Cause the sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to be
+
There's a cigarette rolling through the tips of clenched teeth
+
I don't need much just somewhere to sleep
+
Someone please remind me who the hell I used to be

High Beams
I got too high on the couch last Sunday, she said it was fine
+
"You worked hard all week and deserve you a little time"
+
And this one, she don't want money, no she wants the stars
+
So tonight I'm taking her out and we're getting ours
+
So come on, get in baby, won't you try me?
+
I've got your favorite song mixing with the high beams
+
If we don't go right now, we'll never know
+
So come on, get in, let's see how far this goes
+
You'll burn down this city with a classy little smile
+
But I swear I like you better when you're dancing under lights in the hall
+
You're as kind as the morning, giving all things light
+
And there's some high beams mixing with your favorite song driving tonight
+
So come on, get in baby, won't you try me?
+
I've got your favorite song mixing with the high beams
+
If we don't leave right now, we'll never know
+

The Good Ill Do
The way the grass smells at night
+
And you've got flames all in your eyes
+
As they reflect the sparkler
+
And you say we'll never die
+
Just as callused as I am
+
Well, there's blue jeans in the driveway
+
And you're walking inside sideways
+
The wine always affects you in beautiful kind ways
+
Ask me if I'm staying and I say that I'm sleeping on the floor
+
Won't you tell me that you need me
+
'Cause lately I've been needing someone to remind me
+
I'm worth more than just an evening
+
I awoke to kitchen smoke, you dancin' like God's moved in you before
+
Well, look in my eyes, I don't wan' to hide
+
I've been waiting for you all damn night
+
Sundress, I'll undress with nails on your skin, turning white
+
Getting high out in Austin
+
I don't care where I am
+
As long as you're with me
+
Those boys downtown talk so much shit when I leave
+
The way the grass smells at night
+
And you've got flames all in your eyes
+
As they reflect the sparkler
+
And you say we'll never die
+
Grabbed me by the hands
+
Just as callused as I am
+

Someday (Maggies)
Someday, I'll make it there, I swear
+
To that place that haunts my dreams at night
+
Singing heavenly highway hymns all the way up
+
To that beautiful old countryside
+
Someday, I'll find the words to explain
+
All the good times that echo through my mind
+
Your grin in the mornings, a warm southern sun
+
Or seeing double when those chemicals align
+
Just some kids who needed love, using laughter as their drug
+
Doing their best to tow that hard line
+
Someday, I will lie under blue skies
+
In a hay field that holds me like home
+
But I'll ask forgiveness with God as my witness
+
For straying so far on my own
+
Today, I'll hold my head up high
+
Knowing someday, comes one day at a time
+
Today, there's a sun setting soon as suppers warm
+
Today, I've got someday on my mind
+
Someday, I'll call up my old friends
+
And we'll catch up with too many beers
+
Pull an all nighter, sitting around fire
+
For the first time in so many years
+
Someday, I will come to my senses
+
Stop sitting on fences in fear
+
And I will realize after all of this time
+
That some day was always just right here
+
Today, I'll hold my head up high
+
Knowing some day has been here the whole damn time
+
There's a sun set setting, I ain't forgetting
+
The blood that made my heart warm
+
Today, I found what I was searching for
+
Someday, I will send you a postcard
+
From the place that I'm smiling tonight
+
I sang heavenly highway hymns all the way up
+
To this beautiful warm country side

Today, I'll hold my head up high
+
Knowing some day has been here the whole damn time
+
There's a sun set setting, I ain't forgetting
+
The blood that made my heart warm
+
Today, I found what I was searching for
+
Someday, I will send you a postcard
+
From the place that I'm smiling tonight
+
I sang heavenly highway hymns all the way up
+
To this beautiful warm country side

Poems and Closing Time
'Cause I've been overthinking
+
'Cause I get so damn anxious at night
+
Friends ask how you've been
+
You just learn to say you're alright
+
I found it so hard to find truth
+
It'll always just be me and you
+
And those bastards get richer
+
While the poor dig ditches
+
To bury their dreaming in
+
Is the reason they're sleeping in
+
So their kids find worth in
+
Something bigger than themselves
+
And you can't buy your way outta Hell
+
I'm lost again past two
+
It'll always just be me and you
+
Now I've been overdrinking
+
'Cause I've been overthinking
+
'Cause I get so damn anxious at night
+
Friends ask me how I've been
+
You just learn to say you're alright
+
I found it so hard to find truth
+
Only true friend of mine
+
It'll always just be me and you
+
And don't try to play me
+
As one of your sorry fools
+
In a world that's growing so cruel

From Austin
There is concrete below me and a sky above so blue
+
I'm finally leavin' Austin and I wish it was with you
+
I am just a sickness and you seem to be the cure
+
How much can a southern girl honestly endure?
+
Remember northwest mountains, they were snow-capped in June
+
You were nappin' on my arms on a Sunday afternoon
+
But babe, I've gotta heal myself from the things I've never felt
+
Repression is my Heaven but I'd rather go through hell
+
It's 'bout time that I left Austin, 'bout time you settled down
+
With a man who doesn't move as quick as trains rollin' through town
+
'Bout time that I faced the hard times I've let go
+
Love was just an ocean, I would drown before I float
+
You remember gettin' drunk on the outskirts of this town
+
When I gave you all I had but it still let you down?
+
Everyone I've ever loved has either left or died
+
Wish I was born with concrete shoes but I'm leavin' tonight
+
It's 'bout time that I left Austin, 'bout time you settled down
+
With a man who doesn't move as quick as the trains rollin' through town
+
'Bout time that I faced the hard times I've let go
+
Love was just an ocean, I would drown before I float
+
There's concrete below me and a sky above so blue
+
People ruin people, I don't wanna ruin you
+
I am just a sickness and you seem to be the cure
+
How much can a southern girl honestly endure?
+
And I'm finally gone from Austin, you finally settled down
+
With a man who didn't move as quick as the trains that rolled through town
+
I've finally had to face the hard times I've let go
+
If lovin' you was an ocean, I'd have drowned so you could float

If She Wants A Cowboy
(One, two, three, four)
+
(Man, I got a song for y'all)
+
(Interesting, actual writing)
+
(Something y'all ain't never heard of)
+
She wants a cowboy, so I just might
+
Find me some boots that fit me right
+
Chew some tobacco, ride me a Bronco
+
On a southern Saturday night
+
And I ain't never rode a horse
+
But I'll find me one that fits my head
+
And she won't know any of that
+
I keep walking this town
+
Tryna' get me some advice
+
But all the ranch hands around
+
Keep on sayin' they wanna fight
+
And I'll learned to two step so I can spin her
+
Off her pretty little country feet
+
If she wants a cowboy then I'll be as cowboy
+
Find me a horse that I can cover
+
Find me some stars to sleep under
+
Find me a train, I'll hop out west
+
If she wants a cowboy, I'll cowboy the best
+
She wanted a cowboy so I went off
+
And rode me a horse about every day
+
Got pretty good at ranching and riding
+
But she didn't care anyway
+
Champion buckles, and champion spurs
+
I got everything but her
+
Now I'm a cowboy and she wants Nashville
+
What the hell was all this worth
+
Find me a horse that I can cover
+
Find me some stars to sleep under
+
Find me a train, I'll hop out west
+
If she wants Nashville, I'll Nashville the best
+
(Man, I never heard a song this good)
+
So find me a horse that I can cover
+
Find me some stars to sleep under
+
Find me a train, I'll hop out west
+
If she wants a cowboy, I'll cowboy the best
+
(Alright boys, I'm leaving for the day, take it easy)
+
(That was mine, that was it)
+
(Throw 'er on the damn radio)
+

Corinthians (Proctors)
Jet trails cut across a Winter County sky
+
That's why I recon Sunday is a good day to die
+
There's a beautiful black gale and then he's waiting there for me
+
Pissed off and raising neck hairs and shooting number three
+
Last night they were pulling pints of pesky Pendleton
+
Snuck away from the fire, slept there with the grass and wind
+
I looked up at Heaven, saw how small I really was
+
I wanna build a house and burn it down just because
+
And you're smirking like an asshole
+
With a cheek full of tobacco
+
In the back of some Bronco
+
In a town you've never been
+
Nothing fun happens after you turn twenty-five
+
If I make it out at all, I pray you're right here by my side
+
And if I'm going down then I'm going down true
+
If I've got anyone to thank, then It'll always be you
+
What the hell am I doing?
+
How I'll miss the scripture
+
Oh, Sunday's the day to die
+
And granddad sure was punchy
+
But loved Jesus to his core
+
I wanna die today, so I can learn to live for more
+
Nothing fun happens after you turn twenty-five
+
If I make it out at all, I pray you're right here by my side
+
And if I'm going down then I'm going down true
+
If I've got anyone to thank, then It'll only be you
+
If I've got anyone to thank, then It'll always be you
+
Well, jet trails cut across a Winter County sky
+
That's why I recon Sunday is a good day to die

Open the Gate
Well, I heard you died out in Cheyenne
+
With my mother's ring on your hand
+
Said, "I'll love you 'til I die"
+
I can hear the bulls a coming
+
To claim what they've been huntin'
+
Came to claim his daddy's right
+
And my baby, she's been crying
+
At the thought of me dying
+
She knows there's no stopping
+
A man and his foolish pride
+
I'm better than my father was
+
And where he came from too
+
And I ain't never feared nothing
+
That was four legged and bucking
+
Throw me on a hurricane
+
And I'll ride it to the coast
+
You'll never know that your son
+
Came to do what you should've done
+
On a summer day a long time ago
+
Top a bull named To Hell I Go
+
I'm better than my father was
+
And where he came from too
+
Well, I died out in Cheyenne
+
With my baby there crying
+
And a belly that's been growin'
+
Will do what his father should've done
+
On a bull named To Hell I Go
+
He's better than his father was
+
And where he came from too

Half Grown
When I grab you by the hand, you hesitate
+
With the subtle inclination to tell a man straight
+
Your sister was a savior and your mother is a saint
+
Sometimes a woman is the sum of all the things her father ain't
+
And men are just the sum of all the things their mothers did
+
They'll spend their lives searching for the love they had as kids
+
My vices ain't a place to replace a loving home
+
You can't expect a harvest where the field's half grown
+
You can't chose your blood
+
But you can choose to change the chains
+
That chain you down when you was just a child
+
And forgiveness ain't an easy road to go
+
But I know that it's a road worth heading down
+
When I see myself, I see your eyes
+
Reflections nowadays are a calm surprise
+
The older I get, the more I become
+
All the things I swore I'd always run from
+
But I'll raise myself a family and right the wrong
+
Of some imperfect people who were only half grown
+
'Cause you can't chose your blood
+
But you can choose to change the chains
+
That chain you down when you was just a child
+
And forgiveness ain't an easy road to go
+
But I know that it's a road worth going down

No Cure
(One, two, one, two, three, four)
+
Lonely, longin' troubadour, I know that you've been here before
+
But there ain't no cure for a restless man
+
If you came to run from your bad reputation
+
Of sleeping wherever you land
+
What state you in tonight and did you get into a fight?
+
Are you more drunk than you were last week?
+
When I call you on the phone, you are never alone
+
And your jaw's sewn closed when you speak
+
She said, "Run down the road, go where you need to go
+
But I need you to understand"
+
There ain't no home and there is no cure
+
For a no good rambling man
+
Lonely, longin' troubadour, you ain't the boy you were before
+
This world has truly thickened your skin
+
'Cause everyone you talk to acts like they walked through
+
Hell with you way back when
+
Who are you to say I can't live this way?
+
I was born to be a man of the night
+
Twelve foot tall and I'm living proof
+
That highway boys don't die
+
She said, "Run down the road, go where you need to go
+
But I need you to understand"
+
There ain't no home and there is no cure
+
For a no good rambling man
+
She said, "Run down the road, go where you need to go

68 Fastback
Take my soul, take my heart
+
If I'm good for anything
+
It's all of this suffering
+
To you I'm just salvage
+
I ain't ran right in years
+
So drive me then gut me
+
Well, take all my jokes
+
And act like you're someone
+
And steal all the good parts
+
Yeah, you'll sell 'em quick
+
Yeah, you'll sell 'em cheap
+
Hey, you'll give 'em for free
+
But I cleaned all my pistons
+
And now I've got a driver
+
Who chooses the high road
+
They don't use me for scraps
+
And I'm flying down freeways
+
That you cannot tear down
+
What's built up strong now
+
That you cannot teardown
+
What's built up strong now
+
And I'm flying down freeways

Blue
Break me down and beat me blue
+
There ain't a beauty on the planet coming close to you
+
In the harsh heat of summer or a cool crisp fall
+
I'd rather be ruined by you than be loved at all
+
Well, my trash talking, jaywalking, Levi jean queen
+
I've been everywhere, I swear, and you're the finest I've seen
+
Break me down and beat me blue
+
There ain't a kindness on the planet that compares to you
+
In the dark of the night or the light of day
+
I'll long for you tomorrow as I did today
+
Well my day dreaming, people pleasing, bright on dark days girl
+
I fell hard and I've loved wide, and you're the rarest in the world
+
Well, I've been known to chase endless dreams
+
But in my dreams it seems I'm only chasing you
+
And break me, beat me, tear me down
+
And drag my ass all over town
+
I'll whisper you these sonnets 'til I'm blue
+
Oh, I'll whisper you these sonnets 'til I'm blue
+
Break me down and beat me blue
+
There ain't a heaven on the planet that saves me like you
+
The Hallelujah's old 'til you're gone for miles
+
A grown ass man grinning like a child
+
High on the mountain or the valley low
+
Only thing that heals my blues no matter where I go

Break me down and beat me blue
+
There ain't a beauty on the planet coming close to you
+
In the harsh heat of summer or a cool crisp fall
+
I'd rather be ruined by you than be loved at all
+
Well, my trash talking, jaywalking, Levi jean queen
+
I've been everywhere, I swear, and you're the finest I've seen
+
Break me down and beat me blue
+
There ain't a kindness on the planet that compares to you
+
In the dark of the night or the light of day
+
I'll long for you tomorrow as I did today
+
Well my day dreaming, people pleasing, bright on dark days girl
+
I fell hard and I've loved wide, and you're the rarest in the world
+
Well, I've been known to chase endless dreams
+
But in my dreams it seems I'm only chasing you
+
And break me, beat me, tear me down
+
And drag my ass all over town
+
I'll whisper you these sonnets 'til I'm blue
+
Oh, I'll whisper you these sonnets 'til I'm blue
+
Break me down and beat me blue
+
There ain't a heaven on the planet that saves me like you
+
The Hallelujah's old 'til you're gone for miles
+
A grown ass man grinning like a child
+
High on the mountain or the valley low
+
Only thing that heals my blues no matter where I go

Waterwell
You in the morning time
+
Reminds me of the summer time
+
And any time that ain't right now
+
Seems to be a waste of time
+
The way the grass fills hills with the holler
+
And the sun gives in to the cresting moon
+
Well I'm giving in tomorrow
+
Making love in the afternoon
+
Will you come up swinging?
+
But I love you in the evenings
+
I love you in the evenings
+
But I f*cking hate high hopes
+
You in the morning time
+
Remind me of a simpler time
+
Cutting grass for cash and gasoline
+
To prove I'm worth your touch and time
+
The way a woman's hands are more fair
+
To a wise man's worn out ways
+
The way I figured out I was worthless
+
When I lost a love that should've stayed
+
Cause when you go down hard
+
But I love you in the evenings
+
I love you in the evenings
+
But I f*cking hate high hopes
+
You in the morning time
+
Reminds me that each day is mine
+
To be grateful for the rising sun
+
Sneaking through the window blinds
+
The way you tell me its alright
+
And right now's arrived
+
You in the morning time
+
Makes me glad I'm still alive

This Road I Know
This is a poem I wrote called "This road I Know"
+
There's this flash I get often, a fever dream or a vision of sorts
+
Most times late at night
+
And I haven't found out why, but I know exactly why
+
I'm on this road and I hear gravel underneath me, and I feel it too
+
And I don't know where I am, but I know exactly where I am
+
It's dark, It's really dark
+
And the car is warm, but somehow I can feel how cold the night is
+
I don't know where the road leads, but I know exactly where it ends
+
You see, I keep driving
+
And all I see for the longest while is my headlights, for an eternity it seems
+
And everything is desolate and empty and nothing and hopeless
+
I'm lost, but I know where I'm going
+
I'm safe, I'm warm, I'm driving
+
And I see this small light
+
A dim one, growing brighter and bigger and closer and stronger
+
And the closer I get, the more I see
+
I make out a house with light strewn across it, a porch, and cars
+
Some frosted windshields that haven't been touched for hours
+
I hear a song, and it's faint, I can't make out the name but I know every word
+
And it's cold, and they're crunching, and it's the sound of driveways
+
And the wind takes my breath with it
+
And then I walk up to this door, and I knock even though I feel like I don't have to
+
And I don't know where I am, but I know exactly where I am
+
And this crack of light widens on this porch underneath me as this door opens
+
And this brown haired girl with the brightest smile
+
I don't know who she is, but I know her so well
+
And behind her, the warmest home I'd ever seen
+
It's orange and comfortable, there's fire and it's bulb lit
+
"Where have you been? I've been waiting for you all night, we've missed you"
+
She says to the kindest smirk I'd seen in so long
+
Then she tapers off the sentence with the, with peaceful sound that a lady makes
+
She grabs me on the forearms, pulls softly into the dining room
+
And there's people, and they're happy, and they're content for one
+
I don't know who they are, but I know exactly who they are
+
And we're all standing, and I'm laughing at a joke I'll never hear again
+
I don't know where I am, but I know exactly where I am
+
And then she tucks her head between my collar as a friend
+
Between my collar and my jaw, and there's no weight at all
+
And I don't know where I am, but there's no weight at all
+
It's laughter and grins and no tomorrow to win
+
And I don't know where I am, but I know exactly where I am
+
I don't know where I am, but I know exactly where I am
