Lyrics: Anyone who′s ever had a heart Wouldn't turn around and break it And anyone who′s ever played a part Wouldn't turn around and hate it
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane Oh, sweet, sweet Jane
You're waiting for Jimmy down in the alley You were waiting there for him to come back home You′re waiting down on the corner And thinking of ways to get back home
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane Ah, sweet, sweet Jane
Anyone who′s ever had a dream Anyone who's ever played a part Anyone who′s ever been lonely And anyone who's ever split apart
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane Oh, sweet, sweet Jane
Heavenly wine and roses Seem to whisper to me when you smile Heavenly wine and roses Seem to whisper to me when you smile

Lyrics: [Verse 1] Just came up on the Midnight Special Hey, how 'bout that? My car broke down in Texas She stopped dead in her tracks Just called to tell you that I need you Just called to tell you how I feel [Chorus] I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel [Verse 2] They took my money on the night train north What a terrible thing I gave my promise that I would be there with you By Saturday night I want to tell you that I need you I need to tell you how I feel [Chorus] I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel I feel like some old engine that's lost my driving wheel
[Verse 3] You can't say much in a phone call, babe You know how it is I have to tell you one short thing Oh, won't you listen to this I want to tell you that I love you, babe I want to tell you just how I feel

Cowboy Junkies - If You Gotta Go, Go Now (Official Audio)
Lyrics: [Verse] Listen to me, baby There's something that you must see I wanna be with you, boy If you wanna be with me
[Chorus] But if you gotta go, it's all right But if you gotta go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night
[Verse] It's not that I'm questioning you To take part in some kind of quiz It's just that I have got no watch And you keep askin' me what time it is
[Chorus] But if you gotta go, it's all right But if you gotta go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night
[Verse] I am just a poor girl, baby Trying to connect I certainly don't want you thinkin' That I haven't got any respect
[Chorus] If you gotta go, it's all right But if you gotta go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night
[Verse] It ain't that I am wanting Anything you never gave before It's just that I'll be sleeping soon It'll be too dark for you to find the door
[Chorus] If you gotta go, it's all right But if you gotta go, go now Or else you gotta stay all nightCowboy Junkies - Where Are You Tonight? (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Where Are You Tonight? (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: There's a young man in the corner playing 'Crazy' all night long Quarters piled high upon the table He orders Wild Turkey and with a quick wit and a smile He says, 'My darling, you're the one I'll drape in sable' But his baseball cap and this bar-room rap Tell me a different story That this is not my prince to grant all my wishes Just another lonely country-boy grown weary of the night Just another boy with a sink full of dirty dishes
Where are you tonight? When I left you in my dreams last night You promised me that we would be breaking free Where are you tonight?
He tells me of the back roads And how we'll drive them all night long How the days will fade and the moon will hang forever And how the cloud of dust we'll kick up will linger like a song And the myth will grow about the two who refused to surrender
Then I catch us in the bar-room mirror With his arm around my shoulder This girl I see has grown so unfamiliar And as she stands to leave with a stranger by her side She can't help but laugh at a life grown so peculiar
Where are you tonight? I don't think I can face tomorrow's light Not knowing if you'll be there to guide me Where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight? I think that I'll make it through all right But I'd love to have you just one more time beside meCowboy Junkies - Bad Boy (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Bad Boy (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: A bad little boy moved into the neighborhood He won't do nothin' right just a-sittin' got to look so good He don't wanna go to school and learn to read and write Just sits around the house and plays that rock n' roll music all night
Well, he put thumbtacks on teacher's chair Put chewing gum in li'l girl's hair Now junior, behave yourself!
Buys every rock n' roll book on the magazine stand Every dime that he gets, oh is off to the juke box man Well, he worries his teacher till she's a-ready to poop
From rockin' and a rollin' spinnin' in a hula-hoop
Well, his rock n' roll has gotta stop Junior's head is hard as rock Now junior, behave yourself!
Gonna tell your mama you'd better do what she said Get to the barber shop and get that hair cut off your head You shoot the canary and you fed it to the neighbor's cat You gave the cocker spaniel a bath in mother's laundromat
Well, your mama said it's gotta stop Junior's head is hard as rock Now junior, behave yourself!Cowboy Junkies - Cause Cheap Is How I Feel (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Cause Cheap Is How I Feel (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: It's the kind of night that's so cold, when you spit It freezes before it hits the ground And when a bum asks you for a quarter, you give a dollar If he's out tonight, he must be truly down
And I'm searching all the windows for a last minute present To prove to you that what I said was real For something small and frail and plastic, baby 'Cause cheap is how I feel
Half moon in the sky tonight Bright enough to come up with an answer To the question, "Why is it that every time I see you My love grows a little stronger?"
But your memory leaves my stomach churning Feeling like a lie about to be revealed But I'll hoard all this to myself 'Cause cheap is how I feel
It's not the smell in here that gets to me, it's the lights I hate the shadows that they cast And the sound of clinking bottles is the one sure thing I'll always drag with me from my past
I think I'll find a pair of eyes tonight, to fall into And maybe strike a deal Your body for my soul, fair swap 'Cause cheap is how I feelCowboy Junkies - Pale Sun (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Pale Sun (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: Fifty miles from Dakota territory Cheyenne scalp hangs from his belt Found him alone washing in the Bighorn A steady aim and he bagged his game
Pale sun falls without contest Here is obedient darkness He will not return
White Cadillac, white man at the wheel White faces on the mountain Wounds that will never heal Black clouds overhead, old man says Looks like rain Thieves' Road winds to the Black Hills sign Says South Dakota, U.S.A
Grass plains stretch to the horizon Not a soul can be found on them They will not return
Old rusted pickup and a mad dog in the yard Purple paint peels but fails to reveal The bitterness that grows inside Cloud of dust in the distance Strange knock beneath my hood Is it better to have words left unsaid Than to have words misunderstood?
Pale sun falls without contest Here is obedient darkness It will return I know it will return It will returnCowboy Junkies - Lost My Driving Wheel (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Lost My Driving Wheel (Live - Official Audio)

Lyrics: I was walking after midnight Yeah, out in the moonlight The way we used to do I'm always walking after midnight Searching for you I'm always walking after midnight Searching for you
I stop to see a weeping willow Crying on his pillow Maybe he's a-crying for me And as the skys turn gloomy The night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I'm always walking after midnight Searching for you
I walk for miles along the highway Well that's just my way Of saying "I love you" I'm always walking after midnight Searching for you I walk for miles along the highway Searching for you
I'm always walking after midnight Yeah, out in the moonlight Hoping you may be Somewhere a-walking after midnight Searching for me I'm always walking after midnight Searching for youCowboy Junkies - Im So Lonesome I Could Cry (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: Hear the lonesome whippoorwill His song's too blue to fly The midnight train is a-winding low I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night so long When time keeps crawling by The moon is gone behind the clouds To hide his face and cry
Have you ever seen a robin weep When leaves have turned to brown? Like me he's lost his will to live I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a falling star Lights up a purple haze And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cryCowboy Junkies - Spoken Intro (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Spoken Intro (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: Early this morning, he knocked on my door Early this morning he knocked on my door I said "Hello, Satan, I believe it's time to go" Me and The Devil are walkin' side by side Me and The Devil are walkin' side by side Well, I'm goin' to beat my man until I get satisfied He says I don't do him right That I dog him around Well, babe, you know you ain't treating me right He says I don't do him right that I dog him around Well, it must be this old evil spirit So deep down within the ground You may bury my body down by the highway side ...oh, babe I don't care what you do with my body You may bury my body down by the highway side So my old evil spirit can catch a Greyhound bus and ride Early this morning, he knocked on my door Now me and The Devil are walking side by side Side by sideCowboy Junkies - Oregon Hill (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Oregon Hill (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: The hoods are up on Pine Street Rear ends lifted too The great-grandsons of General Robert E. Lee Are making love with a little help from STP Their women on the porches comparing alibis
Greasy eggs and bacon Bumper stickers aimed to start a fight Full gun racks, Confederate caps If you want some 'shine Well, you can always find some more But what I remember most is the colour of Suzy's door
And Suzy says she's up there Cutting carrots still And Suzy says she's missing me So I'm missing Oregon Hill
A river to the south To wash away all sins A college to the east of us To learn where sin begins A graveyard to the west of it all Which I may soon be lying in
Cause to the north there is a prison Which I've come to call my home But some Monday morning no country song Will sing me home again
And Suzy says she's up there Cutting carrots still And Suzy says she's missing me So I'm missing Oregon Hill
Sunday morning, eight A.M., Sirens fill the air Sounds like someone made the river Sounds like someone being born again Me, I'm just lying here in Suzy's bed
Baptists celebrating with praises to the Lord Rednecks doing it with gin Me and Suzy, we're celebrating The joy of sleeping in Because tomorrow I'll be home again
But Suzy says she'll wait there Cutting carrots by the window sill And Suzy says, 'Always think of me When you think of Oregon Hill'Cowboy Junkies - Murder, Tonight, In The Trailer Park (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Murder, Tonight, In The Trailer Park (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: Murder tonight in the trailer park Mrs. Annabelle Evans found With her throat cut after dark Her pockets turned inside out Her dresser drawers turned upside down Anna's neighbour, Peg, identifies the body Lets out a hollow kind of sound
Homicide is tying yellow ribbons Around her silver Airstream Red cherries slashing up the night Cutting through that cordoned crime scene There's been a murder in the trailer park tonight
Murder tonight in the trailer park Pack your things, Ann Marie We're heading west We're going to make a fresh start I've been saving pennies Been looking forward to this day No time for questions Are you coming or are you going to stay?
Crosstown at the Waterton George Evans is sitting tall and tight Buying drinks for all the regulars Bragging about how them bones Danced for him tonight There's been a murder in the trailer park tonight
Murder tonight in the trailer park Faceless man counting crumpled bills Hotel neon fights the dark TV set in the corner, they're talking murder On the late-night news He turns down the sound, waits for the sports He only wants to know, did I win or did I lose
There's been a murder in the trailer park tonight Murder tonight in the trailer parkCowboy Junkies - Blue Moon Revisited (A Song For Elvis) (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Blue Moon Revisited (A Song For Elvis) (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: I only want to say That if there is a way I want my baby back with me 'cause he's my true love My only one don't you see?
And on that fateful day Perhaps in the new sun of May My baby walks back into my arms I'll keep him beside me Forever from harm
You see I was afraid To let my baby stray
I kept him too tightly by my side And then one sad day He went away and he died
Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own Blue Moon, you knew just what I was there for You heard me saying a prayer for Someone I really could care for
I only want to say That if there is a way I want my baby back with me 'cause he's my true love My only one don't you see?Cowboy Junkies - Sun Comes Up, Its Tuesday Morning (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Sun Comes Up, It's Tuesday Morning (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: Sun comes up, it's Tuesday morning Hits me straight in the eye Guess you forgot to close the blind last night Oh, that's right, I forgot, it was me
I sure do miss the smell of black coffee in the morning The sound of water splashing all over the bathroom The kiss that you would give me even though I was sleeping But I kind of like the feel of this extra few feet in my bed Telephone's ringing, but I don't answer it 'cause everybody knows that good news always sleeps till noon
Guess it's tea and toast for breakfast again Maybe I'll add a little TV too No milk! god, how I hate that Guess I'll go to the corner, get breakfast from jenny She's got a black eye this morning, 'Jen how'd ya get it? ' She says, 'last night, bobby got a little bit out of hand'
Lunchtime. I start to dial your number Then I remember so I reach for something to smoke And anyways I'd rather listen to Coltrane Than go through all that shit again
There's something about an afternoon spent doing nothing Just listening to records and watching the sun falling
Thinking of things that don't have to add up to something And this spell won't be broken By the sound of keys scraping in the lock
Maybe tonight it's a movie With plenty of room for elbows and knees A bag of popcorn all to myself Black and white with a strong female lead And if I don't like it, no debate, I'll leave
Here comes that feeling that I'd forgotten How strange these streets feel When you're alone on them Each pair of eyes just filled with suggestion So I lower my head, make a beeline for home Seething inside
Funny, I'd never noticed The sound the streetcars make as they pass my window Which reminds me that I forgot to close the blind again Yeah, sure I'll admit there are times when I miss you Especially like now when I need someone to hold me But there are some things that can never be forgiven And I just gotta tell you That I kinda like this extra few feet in my bedCowboy Junkies - 200 More Miles (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – 200 More Miles (Live - Official Audio) Shop music and more: shop.sonymusic.ca/collections/cowboy-junkies Official website: cowboyjunkies.com Download or stream: cowboyjunkies.lnk.to/ArtistPages
Lyrics: Atlanta's a distant memory Montgomery a recent birth and Tulsa burns on the desert floor like a signal fire
I got Willie on the radio a dozen things on my mind and number one is fleshing out these dreams of mine
I've got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line before I sleep But there'll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms to fall into tonight
In Nashville there is a lighter in a case for all to see it speaks of dreams and heartaches left unsung
And in the corner stands a guitar and lonesome words scrawled in a drunken hand I don't travel past, travel hard before and I'm beginning to understand
That I've got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line before I sleep But there'll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms to fall into tonight
They say that I am crazy my life wasting on this road that time will find my dreams scared or dead and cold
But I heard there is a light drawing me to reach an end and when I reach there, I'll turn back and you and I can begin again
I've got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line before I sleep But there'll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms to fall into tonight
I've got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line before I sleep But I wouldn't trade all your golden tomorrows for one hour of this night

Lyrics: Anyone who′s ever had a heart Wouldn't turn around and break it And anyone who′s ever played a part Wouldn't turn around and hate it
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane Oh, sweet, sweet Jane
You're waiting for Jimmy down in the alley You were waiting there for him to come back home You′re waiting down on the corner And thinking of ways to get back home

Lyrics: If you were the woman and I was the man Would I send you yellow roses Would I dare to kiss your hand? In the morning would I caress you As the wind caresses the sand If you were the woman and I was the man?
If I was the heart and you were the head Would you think me very foolish If one day I decided to shed These walls that surround me Just to see where these feelings led If I was the heart and you were the head?
If I was the woman and you were the man Would I laugh if you came to me With your heart in your hand And said, 'I offer you this freely And will give you all that I can Because you are the woman And I am the man?Cowboy Junkies - Hunted (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Hunted (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: Emma's in a part of town Where she doesn't recognize the streets Named for famous native sons And out of every crevice comes creeping A threat in her direction Lucy's outside her home Heading towards her corner store She stays on well-travelled paths And is always making sure That she doesn't develop patterns
There are trap lines Running up and down Main Street Wire snares thirsting for your neck and feet
Susan doesn't like the way her curtains Are blowing in the wind She swears she locked that window Before she went out dancing She stands frozen in her doorway Judy hears a sound coming from the other room She knows she should be alone 'cause the kids left at noon To go visit their father
Quick to your phone dial 911 Invite a strange man into your home Who'll be carrying a gun
Leslie's working late She's got a deadline to meet In walks her boss Upon her desk he puts his feet And says alone at last Reanne's got a new boyfriend And they're getting along Until he locks the door and says don't struggle I'm stronger than you are
Just one question I'm dying to ask, you said Do you know what it's like to be hunted?Cowboy Junkies - Misguided Angel (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – Misguided Angel (Live - Official Audio)
Lyrics: I said "Mama, he's crazy and he scares me But I want him by my side Though he's wild and he's bad And sometimes just plain mad I need him to keep me satisfied"
I said "Papa, don't cry cause it's alright And I see you in some of his ways Though he might not give me the life that you wanted I'll love him the rest of my days"
Misguided angel hangin' over me Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead
I said "Brother, you speak to me of passion You said never to settle for nothing less Well, it's in the way he walks It's in the way he talks His smile, his anger and his kisses"
I said "Sister, don't you understand? He's all I ever wanted in a man I'm tired of sittin' around the T.V. every night Hoping I'm finding a Mr. Right"
Misguided angel hangin' over me Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory Soul like a Lucifer Black and cold like a piece of lead Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead
He says "Baby, don't listen to what they say There comes a time when you have to break away" He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our life It's time to let them go and become my wife"

Lyrics: Look under his floorboards, Mama I don't trust his silly grin He's got a beat-up Rambler, Nebraska plates And I ain't getting in I don't like the way his pinky ring Picks up the dashboard light Or his short little piggy fingers Or the way his belt is cinched too tight
Check under his floorboards, Mama I don't like his suggestive tone The way his words drip from his mouth As he asks can I take you home? I don't care how many miles I got I think I'd rather walk them alone Than to sit in the back seat As his eyes in the mirror Reduce me to flesh and bone
Check under his floorboards, Mama 'cause that razor's not just a threat to me He'll be slicing tiny crescents from your heart Without laying a sweaty palm to your cheek Don't accuse me of running scared Listen to what I'm saying It's a fucked up ol' world, but this ol' girl Well, she ain't giving inCowboy Junkies - State Trooper (Live - Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2025-12-17 | Cowboy Junkies – State Trooper (Live - Official Audio) Shop music and more: shop.sonymusic.ca/collections/cowboy-junkies Official website: cowboyjunkies.com Download or stream: cowboyjunkies.lnk.to/ArtistPages

Cowboy Junkies – Captain Kidd (Sharon, Official Audio)
My name is Captain Kidd As I sailed, as I sailed Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed My name is Captain Kidd And God's laws I did forbid And most wickedly I did as I sailed
My father taught me well To shun the gates of hell But against him I rebelled as I sailed He shoved a bible in my hand But I left it in the sand And I pulled away from land As I sailed
My name is Captain Kidd As I sailed, as I sailed Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed My name is Captain Kidd And God's laws I did forbid And most wickedly I did as I sailed
I murdered William Moore And I left him in his gore Twenty leagues away from shore As I sailed And being crueler still, the gunner I did kill All his precious blood did spill As I sailed
My name is Captain Kidd As I sailed, as I sailed Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed My name is Captain Kidd And God's laws I did forbid And most wickedly I did as I sailed
I was sick and nigh to death And I vowed at every breath Oh to walk in wisdom's path As I sailed But my repentance lasted not My vows I soon forgot Oh damnation is my lot As I sailed
My name is Captain Kidd As I sailed, as I sailed Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed My name is Captain Kidd And God's laws I did forbid And most wickedly I did as I sailed
To the execution dock Lay my head upon the block Laws no more I'll mock as I sail So take warning here and heed To shun bad company Or you'll wind up just like me As I sailed
My name is Captain Kidd As I sailed, as I sailed Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed My name is Captain Kidd And God's laws I did forbid And most wickedly I did as I sailedCowboy Junkies - Powderfinger (Sharon, Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2022-09-30 | #Powderfinger #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies

Lyrics: Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river With a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the rail I think you'd better call John 'cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail And it's less than a mile away I hope they didn't come to stay It's got numbers on the side and a gun And it's making big waves
Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy Lou So the powers that be left me here to do all the thinking And I just turned twenty-two I was wondering what to do And the closer they got The more those feelings grew
Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring He told me, 'Red means run, Son, numbers add up to nothing' But when that first shot hit the dock, I saw it coming Raised the rifle to my eye Never stopped to wonder why Then I saw black and my face flash in the sky
Shelter me from the powder and the finger Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger Just think of me as one you never figured To fade away so young With so much left undone Remember me to my love I know I'll miss herCowboy Junkies - Escape is So Simple (Sharon, Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2022-09-30 | #EscapeisSoSimple #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – Escape is So Simple (Sharon, Official Audio)
Lyrics: The way you kissed me this morning It told me that you soon would be going You didn't even look in my eyes When you said goodbye
And last night in your sleep you broke all the promises That I knew you would never keep Now I'm reading the letter which you placed on the dresser And you're five hundred miles down the road
Escape is so simple In a world where sunsets can be raced But distance only looses the knife The pattern of its scar Can always be traced
Yeah, I remember when we said 'forever' Was the craziest word that we knew But I think that I like it much better than I do 'goodbye'
And I could sit here all evening and think of the reasons Why you are not by my side Instead I'll go to the kitchen, find a strong chair to sit in And drink myself far, far away
Escape is so simple In a world where sunsets can be raced But distance only looses the knife The pattern of its scar Can always be tracedCowboy Junkies - Thirty Summers (Sharon, Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2022-09-30 | #ThirtySummers #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – Thirty Summers (Sharon, Official Audio)
Lyrics: Caught in the vice of heaven and earth He turned his life into a cell Imprisoned by the doubts which hound us all And those desires which we all know so well His days he lost to promises, his nights he purged of dreams And he would wake in the hours before sunrise And dread the coming of the day
Never thought a man could become so desperate Never thought a life could lose so much hope To be tearing at the roots around you As if in manacles, or irons, or ropes They say he told his children that all he taught was lost That love and pride and honesty Were to be gained at too high a cost
It's been thirty summers that I've spent with him And I expect thirty more to pass He has blessed my life in so many ways That I could never turn my back But I need just one more reminder Of the man that he used to be If he would just look deep into my eyes And say it's in you my love that I will find the keyCowboy Junkies - Sun Comes Up, Its Tuesday Morning (Sharon, Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2022-09-30 | #SunComesUpItsTuesdayMorning #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – Sun Comes Up, It's Tuesday Morning (Sharon, Official Audio)
Lyrics: Sun comes up, it's Tuesday morning Hits me straight in the eye Guess you forgot to close the blind last night Oh, that's right, I forgot, it was me
I sure do miss the smell of black coffee in the morning The sound of water splashing all over the bathroom The kiss that you would give me even though I was sleeping But I kind of like the feel of this extra few feet in my bed Telephone's ringing, but I don't answer it 'cause everybody knows that good news always sleeps till noon
Guess it's tea and toast for breakfast again Maybe I'll add a little TV too No milk! god, how I hate that Guess I'll go to the corner, get breakfast from jenny She's got a black eye this morning, 'Jen how'd ya get it? ' She says, 'last night, bobby got a little bit out of hand'
Lunchtime. I start to dial your number Then I remember so I reach for something to smoke And anyways I'd rather listen to Coltrane Than go through all that shit again
There's something about an afternoon spent doing nothing Just listening to records and watching the sun falling
Thinking of things that don't have to add up to something And this spell won't be broken By the sound of keys scraping in the lock
Maybe tonight it's a movie With plenty of room for elbows and knees A bag of popcorn all to myself Black and white with a strong female lead And if I don't like it, no debate, I'll leave
Here comes that feeling that I'd forgotten How strange these streets feel When you're alone on them Each pair of eyes just filled with suggestion So I lower my head, make a beeline for home Seething inside
Funny, I'd never noticed The sound the streetcars make as they pass my window Which reminds me that I forgot to close the blind again Yeah, sure I'll admit there are times when I miss you Especially like now when I need someone to hold me But there are some things that can never be forgiven And I just gotta tell you That I kinda like this extra few feet in my bedCowboy Junkies - Dead Flowers (Sharon, Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2022-09-30 | #DeadFlowers #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – Dead Flowers (Sharon, Official Audio)
Lyrics: Well, when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair Talking to some rich folk that you know Well, I hope you won't see me in my ragged company 'Cause you know I could never be alone Take me down little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers to my wedding And I won't forget to put roses on your grave Well, when you're sitting back in your rose pink cadillac Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon And another girl to take my pain away Take me down little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers to my wedding And I won't forget to put roses on your grave Take me down little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the U.S. mail Say it with dead flowers in my wedding And I won't forget to put roses on your grave No, I won't forget to put roses on your graveCowboy Junkies - Where Are You Tonight?

Cowboy Junkies – Where Are You Tonight? (Sharon, Official Audio)
Lyrics: There's a young man in the corner playing 'Crazy' all night long Quarters piled high upon the table He orders Wild Turkey and with a quick wit and a smile He says, 'My darling, you're the one I'll drape in sable' But his baseball cap and this bar-room rap Tell me a different story That this is not my prince to grant all my wishes Just another lonely country-boy grown weary of the night Just another boy with a sink full of dirty dishes
Where are you tonight? When I left you in my dreams last night You promised me that we would be breaking free Where are you tonight?
He tells me of the back roads And how we'll drive them all night long How the days will fade and the moon will hang forever And how the cloud of dust we'll kick up will linger like a song And the myth will grow about the two who refused to surrender
Then I catch us in the bar-room mirror With his arm around my shoulder This girl I see has grown so unfamiliar And as she stands to leave with a stranger by her side She can't help but laugh at a life grown so peculiar
Where are you tonight? I don't think I can face tomorrow's light Not knowing if you'll be there to guide me Where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight? I think that I'll make it through all right But I'd love to have you just one more time beside meCowboy Junkies - Powderfinger (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-12-28 | #Powderfinger #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies

Cowboy Junkies – You Will Be Loved Again (Official Audio)
Lyrics: How could he take you in his arms And help you to be free Then leave you forgotten And is it enough to cry? When you're so broken...
Her cold eyes tell you you're not welcome She tells lies but you'll take her back again And is it enough to die? When you're so taken
You will be loved again You will be loved again
But will she sing and will she dance And will she forever And will he sing and will he dance And will he forever
Someday you will feel a love so deep And you'll find someone not lost in sleep
And you will be loved again You will be loved again You will be loved againCowboy Junkies - Where Are You Tonight? (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-12-28 | #WhereAreYouTonight #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies

Lyrics: There are witches in the hills calling my name Saying come join us sister, come kiss the flame Come dance in the moonbeams, ride the night wind Make love to the darkness and laugh at man's sins
I shiver with delight, I shiver with fear My heart wants to go but my soul's filled with fear So I turn to my lover and ask what do I do Do I answer their call or stay here with you
But under spell of deep sleep he moans and turns away Taking his protection and my desire to stay So I rise to the hill tops, I ride the night winds I make love to the darkness and laugh at man's sinsCowboy Junkies - Mariners Song (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-12-28 | #MarinersSong #TheCautionHorses #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: The last of man's great unchained beasts lies lapping at my door The last of man's great unchained beasts lies lapping at my door I would give it what it wants, but I do know It would just ask for more
I search for you with every crest I ride In every trough I travel through I search for you in every trough I travel through
I didn't mean to leave you I unfurled my sail and the wind did blow I didn't mean to leave you, darling I unfurled my sail and the wind did blow Why why why why why, oh why I did not drop my anchor Oh Lord, I will never know
I search for you with every crest I ride In every trough I travel through I search for you in every trough I travel through
On the lee of the island I hear your voice deep inside the calm On the lee of the island I hear your voice deep inside the calm Whispering baby, I'll be your delight, if you promise To be my red sky tonight
I search for you with every crest I ride In every trough I travel through I search for you in every trough I travel through
In the storm you are my destination, in the port you are my storm In the storm you are my destination, in the port you are my storm But I would weather you my love, if you would be my guide If you would be my stars in the sky tonight

Lyrics: If I pour your cup, that is friendship If I add you milk, that is manners If I stop there, claiming ignorance of taste That is tea
If I pour your cup, that is friendship If I add you milk, that is manners If I stop there, claiming ignorance of taste That is tea
But if I measure the sugar To satisfy your expectant tongue Then that is love
But if I measure the sugar To satisfy your expectant tongue Then that is love Sitting untouched and growing coldCowboy Junkies - Crescent Moon (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #CrescentMoon #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: Reach a hand to the crescent moon Grab hold of the hollow If she sits in the palm of the left That moon will be fuller tomorrow If she sits in the palm of the right That moon is on the wane And the love of the one who shares your bed Will be doing just the same
'Won't you come with me', she said 'there's plenty of room in my iron bed You're looking cold and tired And more than a little human I know I'm not part of the life you had planned But I think once your body feels my hand Your mind will change And your heart will lose its pain'
Out among the fields gently hipped Beneath the corn Assiniboine bones beneath the highway He stood there and he thought of home A finger traces the path of a satellite You're drawn to a distant copse of trees A voice as sweet as Mare's Tail Clings to the prairie breeze
'Won't you come with me', she said 'there's plenty of room in my iron bed You're looking cold and tired And more than a little human I know I'm not part of the life you had planned But I think once your body feels my hand Your mind will change And your heart will lose its pain'
Do I reach for you When I know you're on the wane? Do I sense you when I know you're not around? Do I search for you When I know you can't be found? Do I dare to speak your name?
Raise your eyes to a moonless sky And try to wish upon a rising star Search all you want for her blessing But you won't find her sparkling there Now cast your eyes to a part of the sky Where nothing but darkness unfolds And watch as all around you She reveals the brilliance of secrets untold
Won't you come with me, she said There's plenty of room in my iron bed You're looking cold and tired And more than a little human I know I'm not part of the life you had planned But I think once your body feels my hand Your mind will change And your heart will lose its painCowboy Junkies - White Sail (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #WhiteSail #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: Raise a white sail if you love me A black sail if you don't Seal me up in an impregnable tower Or surround me with an impassable moat I've heard all the stories told about love (unattainable and pure) But there is one love of which I'm sure
Your fear as honed as a battle axe I'll bear my neck, I'll wear the scar And if my nerve should fail the task I know your faith will not roam too far I've heard all the stories told about love (two souls into one) But this tale of love is one we've just begun
Isoldt had her Tristan But love potions are not what we need And Paris had his Helen But it was infatuation that was plain to see What I desire is your trust to inspire This love for you which grows in me
Plant a rose tree on his grave And on mine plant a vine As seasons pass and markers fade Watch them slowly intertwine I've heard all the stories told about love (till death do us part) But our love is a vow which has been wrought From heart to heartCowboy Junkies - First Recollection (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #FirstRecollection #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – First Recollection (Official Audio)
Lyrics: My first recollection is a day in December Black iron steam engine covered in ice Like some Precambrian monster Moaning and snorting Nothing was ever going to beat that beast In a fair fight
I've sat and watched the woodpiles Grow through the summer Now I'm sitting, smelling summer burn through the fall Winter's coming on, days getting dreary And I'm thinking this is the season That I leave you all
I've heard a man in crisis Falls back on what he knows best A murderer to murder A thief to theft And I don't want you to think That this is some kind of deathbed confession But run is what I did when put to the test
My first recollection is a day in December 747 tracing lines through the sky Like some old gypsy curse Silently preying upon the dreams of those Who jealously watch life pass by
I've sat and watched my troubles Pile through the summer Now I'm sitting, hearing my youngest cry Down the hall Winter's coming on, days getting dreary And I'm thinking this is the season That I leave you all
I've heard that the son must bear The burdens of the father But it's the daughter that is left To clean up the mess And I don't want you to think That I'm asking for absolution But run is what I did when put to the testCowboy Junkies - Pale Sun (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #PaleSun #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: Fifty miles from Dakota territory Cheyenne scalp hangs from his belt Found him alone washing in the Bighorn A steady aim and he bagged his game
Pale sun falls without contest Here is obedient darkness He will not return
White Cadillac, white man at the wheel White faces on the mountain Wounds that will never heal Black clouds overhead, old man says Looks like rain Thieves' Road winds to the Black Hills sign Says South Dakota, U.S.A
Grass plains stretch to the horizon Not a soul can be found on them They will not return
Old rusted pickup and a mad dog in the yard Purple paint peels but fails to reveal The bitterness that grows inside Cloud of dust in the distance Strange knock beneath my hood Is it better to have words left unsaid Than to have words misunderstood?
Pale sun falls without contest Here is obedient darkness It will return I know it will return It will returnCowboy Junkies - Ring On The Sill (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #RingOnTheSill #PlatinumGoldCollection #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – Ring On The Sill (Official Audio)
Lyrics: She placed her ring on the sill Dishes piled high She's on the front porch step And the air smells like snow She's thinking of the siege to come And how she'll miss those weekends In the park with the sun on her face And her book by her side and that Lingering taste that he left on her tongue
He lifts his glass from the table It leaves a ring where it stood He sees the light from the window Caress her like he knows he should He's remembering the first time he kissed her And how he'd wake And immediately he'd miss her Like a spell, with each breath He'd taste her breath like a haunting Irritating as hell
Do you remember when you'd pray To never see the day When someone would make you feel this way 'Cause you knew They would cut right through you And once inside, you were afraid they'd find Nothing to hold on to
He puts her ring on her finger She brushes back his hair He takes a sip from his glass She inhales the cold fall air And they're thinking of the long road ahead And the strength that they will need Just to reach the end And there in the silence they search for The balance between this fear that they feel And a love that has graced their livesCowboy Junkies - Hard To Explain (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #HardToExplain #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: If it ain't one thing I tell you it's always another I wonder why I started treating you like a step-brother
Love is hard to explain I know my loss is someone else's gain
Sometime's love is like a bitter pill But we just have to take it like it is Sometimes life is the sweetest thing And sometimes it's just naked pain
Oh, it's so hard to explain I know my loss is someone else's gain
My troubles started when I found you But that's when I (wrapped?) my world around you And now my living ain't so easy I thought that's what a woman was supposed to do
You see, it's so hard to explain I know my loss is someone else's gain
I went to see my doctor 'Cause I thought I had a hole in my heart But he said "Girl, you're just wasting my time Because some man messed up Went and messed up your mind"
It's so hard to explain I know my loss is someone else's gain
Oh, love it's so hard to explain It'll make you forget your name It'll turn you upside down It'll make you wish that you'd never been foundCowboy Junkies - Seven Years (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #SevenYears #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: Haven't seen the sun for seven days November's got her nails dug in deep Haven't seen my son for seven years And the chances are we'll never again meet
If truth be told I don't even know his name If truth be told he doesn't even know my name
I spend my spare time with my rosary beads Although I never learnt to pray But you don't need the light And it's best to pretend That you've seen the errors of your ways
The darkness in here Is as heavy as a judgement This darkness, heavy as a judgement
My dreams are now filled with Gilead trees And other sights that I've never seen They used to be filled With the fears of tomorrow And the horror that it might bring
His eyes felt to me As cold as a stone mason's chisel His eyes fell on me, cold Like a stone mason's chisel
Strange how a mind can always recall What the senses eagerly leave behind I can remember his face, rage Disgust and distaste But to my fear I have grown blind
Memories are just dead men making trouble This memory is just a dead man making troubleCowboy Junkies - Hunted (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-14 | #Hunted #PaleSunCrescentMoon #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: Emma's in a part of town Where she doesn't recognize the streets Named for famous native sons And out of every crevice comes creeping A threat in her direction Lucy's outside her home Heading towards her corner store She stays on well-travelled paths And is always making sure That she doesn't develop patterns
There are trap lines Running up and down Main Street Wire snares thirsting for your neck and feet
Susan doesn't like the way her curtains Are blowing in the wind She swears she locked that window Before she went out dancing She stands frozen in her doorway Judy hears a sound coming from the other room She knows she should be alone 'cause the kids left at noon To go visit their father
Quick to your phone dial 911 Invite a strange man into your home Who'll be carrying a gun
Leslie's working late She's got a deadline to meet In walks her boss Upon her desk he puts his feet And says alone at last Reanne's got a new boyfriend And they're getting along Until he locks the door and says don't struggle I'm stronger than you are
Just one question I'm dying to ask, you said Do you know what it's like to be hunted?Cowboy Junkies - To Live Is To Fly (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-12 | #ToLiveIsToFly #BlackEyedMan #CowboyJunkies
Cowboy Junkies – To Live Is To Fly (Official Audio)
Lyrics: Won't say I love you babe Won't say I need you babe But I'm going to get you babe And I will not do you wrong Living's mostly wasting time And I waste my share of mine But it never feels too good So let's not take too long I'm as soft as glass and You're a gentle man We got the sky to talk about And the world to lie upon
Days up and down they come Like rain on a conga drum Forget most, remember some But don't turn none away Everything is not enough Nothing is too much to bear Where you been is good and gone All you keep's the getting there To live is to fly low and high So shake the dust off of your wings And the sleep out of your eyes
It's goodbye to all my friends It's time to go again Think of all the poetry And the pickin' down the line I'll miss the system here The bottom's low and the treble's clear But it don't pay to think too much On the things you leave behind I may be gone but I won't be long I'll be bringing back the melody And the rhythm that I find
We all got holes to fill And them holes are all that's real Some fall on you like a storm Sometimes you dig your own But choice is yours to make Time is yours to take Some dive into the sea Some toil upon the stone To live is to fly low and high So shake the dust off of your wings The sleep out of your eyesCowboy Junkies - Townes Blues (Official Audio)Cowboy Junkies2021-05-12 | #TownesBlues #BlackEyedMan #CowboyJunkies
Lyrics: You're clean as A widow woman's washboard, son Stick it in the wind Put the mountains to your back The great plains on your grille Time to take a little spin Boulder looks like the type of town That I could spend some time But in Houston they got our name in lights You're clean as A widow woman's washboard, son The slab is yours tonight
Townes is in the back lounge With his hands in his pocket Pulls out two die and says let's get at it
Salina in the headlights, snake eyes on the floor Al drops another twenty, Pete heads for the door Springer's feeling lucky, sits down for a spell Oklahoma City and he's lost his last bill Jeff is in a bind waiting on sister hicks Seven comes a-calling as we cross on into Texas
Townes is in the back lounge With a fist full of fives He says, it's a little bit long But I'm enjoying this ride
Be careful with the die When you're surrounded by others With boxcars in their eyes Never count your winnings at hour 23 Of a 24-hour drive Remember that you're not the one calling the tune That's making those diamonds dance Or you'll be clean as A widow woman's washboard, son And those are the facts
Townes is in the back lounge Cursing at them bones He says, ain't this fool ever heard of Raton
