Tonight's the Night [4:39] lyrics

0

Well he shot four men in a cocaine deal
And he left them lyin' in an open field
Full of old cars with bullet holes in the mirrors.
He tried to do his best but he could not.

Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.

World on a String [2:27] lyrics

0

You know I lose, you know I win
You know I call for the shape I'm in.
It's just a game you see me play,
Only real in the way
That I feel from day to day.

Although the answer is not unknown,
I'm searchin', searchin', and how I've grown.
It's not all right to say goodbye,
And the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing.

No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing.

Mellow My Mind [3:07] lyrics

0

Baby mellow my mind,
Make me feel like a schoolboy on good time,
Jugglin' nickels and dimes,
Satisfied with the fish on the line.

I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothing on those feelings that I had.

Something so hard to find,
A situation that can casualize your mind.

I've been down the road and I've come back

Albuquerque [4:02] lyrics

-1

Well, they say that Santa Fe is less than ninety miles away,
And I got time to roll a number and rent a car.
Oh, Albuquerque.

I've been flyin' down the road, and I've been starvin' to be alone,
And independent from the scene that I've known.
Albuquerque.

So I'll stop when I can, find some fried eggs and country ham.
I'll find somewhere where they don't care who I am.
Oh, Albuquerque,

Lookout Joe [3:57] lyrics

0

A hip drag queen and a side-walkin' street wheeler,
Comin' down the avenue.
They're all your friends, you'll come to love 'em
There's a load of 'em waitin' for you.

Lookout Joe, you're comin' home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times.

Remember Millie from down in Philly?
She took my brain and forgot my name.
The woman you were with was about the same

Tonight's the Night, Pt. 2 [4:52] lyrics

-1

Well he shot four men in a cocaine deal
And he left them lyin' in an open field
Full of old cars with bullet holes in the mirrors.
He tried to do his best but he could not.

Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.

Speakin' Out [4:56] lyrics

0

I went to the movie the other night,
The plot was groovy, it was out of sight.
I sat with my popcorn, out lookin' for good times
Lost in the cartoon, I grabbed the lifeline.

I've been a searcher, I've been a fool,
But I've been a long time comin' to you.
I'm hopin' for your love to carry me through
You're holdin' my baby, and I'm holdin' you,
And it's all right.

Borrowed Tune [3:26] lyrics

0

I'm climbin' this ladder,
My head in the clouds
I hope that it matters,
I'm havin' my doubts.

I'm watchin' the skaters
Fly by on the lake.
Ice frozen six feet deep,
How long does it take?

I look out on peaceful lands
With no war nearby,
An ocean of shakin' hands
That grab at the sky.

I'm singin' this borrowed tune
I took from the Rolling Stones,
Alone in this empty room

Roll Another Number (For the Road) [3:02] lyrics

1

It's too dark

to put the keys

in my ignition,

And the mornin' sun is yet
to climb my hood ornament.

But before too long I might

see those flashing red lights

Look out, mama,

'cause I'm comin' home tonight.

Think I'll

roll another number

for the road,

I feel able to get under any load.

Though my feet

aren't on the ground,

I been standin' on the sound

New Mama [2:11] lyrics

0

New mama's got a sun in her eyes
No clouds are in my changing skies
Each morning when I wake up to rise
I'm livin' in a dreamland.

Changing times, ancient reasons, that turn to lies
Throw them all away
Head in hand, gift of wonders to understand
And open all the way.

New mama's got a sun in her eyes
No clouds are in my changing skies
Each morning when I wake up to rise

Tired Eyes [4:38] lyrics

0

Well he shot four men in a cocaine deal
And he left them lyin' in an open field
Full of old cars with bullet holes in the mirrors.
He tried to do his best but he could not.

Please take my advice, please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.

Well, it wasn't supposed to go down that way.
But they burned his brother, you know,
