LYRICS
Born a bastard child in New Orleans
to a woman I’ve never seen
I don’t know if she ever held me
All I know is that she let go of me
I passed thru like thunder I passed thru like rain
Passed out from under good-bye could’a been my family name
Every time I settle down it happens
I get a restless feeling I can’t control
I hit the wall, then I hit the highway
I’ve got the curse of a gypsy on my soul
So I move thru like thunder I move through like rain
Moving out from under good-bye could’a been my family name
I can’t break free of the winds that blow me
They roll in like a Gulf Coast Hurricane
I’d love to stay now but I don’t know how
Hold me honey till I’m gone again
When it’s time to leave forever
I pray the Lord don’t take me slow.
I don’t know where I’m going
I just wanna say good-bye and go
And I’ll move thru like thunder push thru like rain
Pushing out from under Good-bye could have been my family name")

LYRICS
Joey got sick in ’82
Back there wasn’t much the doctors could do
They put him in the General I.C.U.
And the whispering started cause some people knew
Joey’s got the sickness that’s got no cure
They put warning signs on Joey’s door
Half of the staff on Joey’s floor said
I ain’t going in that room no more
Skeleton town, it’s a skeleton town
Shadows keep moving when the sun goes down
There’s plenty of ways to say good-bye
In the darkness shadow multiply
In skeleton Town
Joey’s daddy got angry and started to yell
Told the nurses they could all go straight to hell
Put his fists on the counter, looked ‘em in the eye
He said, “My son deserves better and he started to cry.”
Joeys mama walked up and took his daddy’s hand
She said, “Honey lets talk him back home again.”
Skeleton town, it’s a skeleton town
Shadows keep moving when the sun goes down
There’s plenty of ways to say good-bye
In the darkness shadow multiply
In skeleton Town
Joey’s mama sat with him every day
With her rosary beads in her hands she’d pray
The doctor looked down he had nothing to say
He’d never seen a sickness do a man this way
The neighbors started talking then the talking broke down
Someone shouted lets run their asses out of town")

LYRICS
I hated high school, I prayed it would end
The jocks and their girls, it was their world, I didnt fit in
Mama said, Baby, its the best school that money can buy,
Hold your head up, be strong, cmon Mary, try.
I stole mamas car on a Sunday and left home for good
Moved in with my friends in the city, in a bad neighborhood
Charles was a dancer, he loved the ballet
And Kimmy sold pot and read Kerouac and Hemingway
Drag Queens in Limousines nuns in blue jeans
Dreamers with big dreams all took me in
Charly and I flipped burgers to cover the rent
And Bourbons at Happy hour for .35 cents
One day before work we got drunk and danced in the rain
They fired us both, said, Dont y’all come back here again.
CHORUS
My daddy went to college, and he worked for the state
He never quit nothing he wanted me to graduate
My brother and sister both play in the marching band
They tell me they miss me, but I know they dont understand.
Sometimes you got do, what you gotta do
And pray that the people you love, will catch up with you.
Yea drag queens in limousines nuns in blue jeans
Dreamers with big dreams poets and AWOL marines
Actors and bar fly’s writers with dark eyes
Drunks that philosophize these are my friends")
