XXX’s and OOOs
Written by: Alice Randall, Matraca Berg
Homage Riff by: Caroline Randall Williams
What an American Girl is
What an American Girl?
Used to be hair tied up
Wearing ribbons and pearls
Look how she move now
She so sweet
She so tough
She wear her hair down now
Or if she do wear it up
It’s her natural curls
Wrapped
In ribbons and bows
While she stay signing letters
With XXXs and OOOs
And it’s XXXs and OOOs
Forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows and stay getting better now
She a picture
She a mama
In all black and pearls
Took her daddy’s world and made it wild
For Black American girls
I said she’s a daddy’s girl
In a daddy’s world
That how she got strong
Raised me in a house she paid for
Put our life in a song
And yes it’s XXX’s and OOOs
Forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows
And stay getting better now
Then the phone stayed ringing
The tv stayed lying
Y’all know I was that baby crying
Now the phone even worse
In your purse
Burn your eyes
Every screen a diet guru now
Telling every kind of lies
Watch her hustle, watch her fight,
Watch her write, for her life
She put on makeup
That’s her armor
To get through the day alive
Now she pay someone to fix the sink
She pay someone to mow the yard
Her life look real good now
Working so hard
We done with slow dances
Love thy self, that’s romances
With Aretha, God, and Patsy Matraca and good wine
Take every chance and then some
Kick down doors
Waste no time
Raised a real one
Mama’s girl
To run a brand new world
Raised me to wear my hair down
Raised me to love my curls
Taught me to sign my letters
Taught me to wear my pearls
And it is XXXs and OOOs forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows and stay getting better now
And it is XXXs and OOOs forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows and stay getting better now
For American girls
Black American girls

Who’s Minding the Garden (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Bruce Bouton
There's a bay up in Alaska oh so cold and clear
A home for creatures great and small
Till the pipeline appeared
To bring us fuel to heat our homes
And gas for us to drive
Now the sea is black with oil
And all the fish have died
So who`s to tell us why?
There's a forest in Brazil sheltered by the rain
Where the tall trees make the air we breathe
Till the cattle barons came
They clearеd the land for grazing
Fifty thousand trees a day now the Amazon's on fire
And that's progrеss they say
But what a price to pay
Who's minding the garden?
Who's holding the seed?
Are they planning for tomorrow
Or just harvesting their greed?
There's a line in the Bible
Says we'll reap just what we sow
But who who'll mind the garden
When the garden won't grow?
Who's minding, who’s mind, who’s mind the garden?
Who's minding, who's minding?
There's children in the city
Never seen a butterfly
We’ve poisoned the wildflowers and the water supply
There’s hot zones, dead zones, depleting ozone
Climate change is real
When it’s going to take a miracle for mother earth to heal
How’s a child supposed to feel?
Who's minding the garden?
Who's holding the seed?
Are they planning for tomorrow
Or just harvesting their dreams?
There's a line in the Bible
Says we'll reap just what we sow
But who will mind the garden--
When the garden won't grow?

The Ballad of Sally Anne (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Harry Stinson, Mark O’Connor
With love in his heart and flowers in his hand
Johnny proposed to Sally Anne
Sally shivered as she said,
"I'll love you till the day I'm dead"
Johnny got married in his one good suit
But the ride from church it bore strange fruit
Down by the road you can hear her cry
As he hung from a tree, she watched him die
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand?
When the fiddler takes the stand,
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Sally attends every wedding 'round here
Looking for her Johnny dear
You can feel them in the room
If the fiddler plays that tune
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand?
When the fiddler takes the stand,
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Sail away, ladies, Sail away!
Sail away, ladies, Sail away!
Dark young shadows cross the floor
As ghostly lovers dance once more
When weddin'g bells ring in that town
A ghostly virgin strolls the ground
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna touch her trembling hand
When the fiddler takes the stand,
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne
Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand
When the fiddler takes the stand
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne

Went for a Ride (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Radney Foster
He was black as the sky on a moonless night
Good with horses never reined them too tight
He rode with the best hell he rode with me
And they got it all wrong in that book of history
It wasn't cowboys and ponies it was horses and men
It wasn't school boys and ladies it was cow-towns and sin
There was blood on the leather and tears in their eyes
We swore at the devil and went for a ride
We told some tales, he told them best
Real life can always use a good stretch
But that don't change the things we did
Cause the realest thing was the life that we lived
It wasn't cowboys and ponies it was horses and men
It wasn't school boys and ladies it was cow-towns and sin
And there was blood on the leather and tears in her eyes
We swore at the devil and then we went for a ride…that’s right
More than one kind of pain, more than one kind of theft
And it’s bitter as the night that sweet Jesus wept
She stole my heart age stole the fire
They stole my prairie when they strung all that wire
It wasn't no cowboys and ponies it was horses and men
It wasn't no school boys and ladies it was cow-towns and sin
And there was blood on the leather and tears in her eyes
We swore at the devil and went for a ride
I swore at the devil and went for ride

Many Mansions (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Marks Sanders, Carol Ann Etheridge
Hope is a thing with feathers
That perches on the soul
Said the homeless young girl standing there
Strong against the cold.
I reached into my pocket
Said a penny for your poetry
But when I handed her a dollar bill
She was shaking her head at me.
And she said these words to me.
In my mother's house are many mansions
Though tonight I make my bed out on the street.
Where I've seen life stilled by winter's bitter chill.
In my mother’s house there's mansion for me
Sleep is a silent pleasure
Behind doors with deadbolt locks,
But it's a concrete nightmare and a chance you take
On the streets in a cardboard box .
But I know about the eye of the needle
what will come to pass
When the least of us shall be the first
And the first now shall be last.
Who's homeless now I ask?
In my mother's house are many mansions.
Though tonight I make my bed out on the street
Where I've seen life stilled by winter's bitter chill.
In my mother’s house there's mansion for me.
In my mother's house are many mansions.
Though tonight I make my bed out on the streets
Where I've seen lives stilled by winter's bitter chill.
In my mother’s house there’s a mansion for me
Where I’ve seen life stilled by winter’s chill
In my mothers house there’s a mansion for me
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches on the soul
Said the homeless young girls standing there
Strong against the cold

Girls Ride Horses Too (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Mark Sanders
He said "Life on the border is a little bit rough
If you're gonna love me, you gotta be tough
"Beyond the law, anything goes
"When you're livin' on the edge of Mexico."
I heard all he said
But I didn't believe
Not till I tried to keep him close to me
He rode away in a cloud of dust
Chasing Laredo and Lady Luck
His bags were full of who knows what?
I knew what I had to do,
Girls ride horses too!
I rode all day tracking him down
Spent the night on dangerous ground
Smelling the smoke of the distant fire
Feeling the flame of my desires
Well, nothing in the desert is what it seems
I ran the numbers in my dreams
He rode away in a cloud of dust
Chasing Laredo and Lady Luck
His bags were full of who knows what?
I knew what I had to do,
Girls ride horses too!
I crossed the river as the sun came up
Drank his tequila from a silver cup
Traded his bags for a sack of gold
And got a little taste of Mexico
If he's gonna love me, he's gotta get tough
‘Cause life on the border is a little bit rough
He rode away in a cloud of dust
Chasing Laredo and Lady Luck
His bags were full of who knows what
I did what I had to do
Oh, he rode away in a cloud of dust
Chasin' Laredo and Lady Luck
His bags were full of who knows what?
I did what I had to do
Girls ride horses too
Girls ride horses too

Get the Hell Out of Dodge (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Walter Hyatt
You put leaving on my mind, love
I’m gonna fly like the lonesome dove
Until my troubles with you
Fade to a blue mirage
You say there’s gonna be a showdown
But I won’t be here at sundown
One thing I do well,
Get the hell outta dodge
Your words ricochet around my head
Might as well be slinging lead
But I’m a son of a gun
If I can’t stand more than one barrage
Already two of my amigos died
My dignity and my manly pride
Let ‘em lay where they fell
Get thе hell outta dodge
I won’t hang around this old cowtown
If you don’t need me anymorе
And I don’t need nothing I can’t find
Behind some swinging doors
Ain’t gonna wait until the law gets there
Taking names and kicking you know where
A hanging judge with a trumped up charge
I see the writing on the fence rail
I hear the call down the lonesome trail
Clear as a bell
Get the hell out of dodge
You put leaving on my mind, love
I’m gonna fly like the lonesome dove
Until my troubles with you
Fade to a blue mirage
You say there’s gonna be a showdown
But I won’t be here at sundown
One thing I do well,
Get the hell outta dodge
One thing I do well is get the hell out of dodge…

Solitary Hero (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Carole Elliot
My name is Magdalene,
I’m a sweet soft sister of sin
Men pay silver dollars
to touch my golden skin
But there’s precious little comfort
And never any joy
For a boom town whore in
A bar room full of dust caked men and boys
Buffalo soldiers, Texas rangers, dandy gamblers, gandy dancers
Sheriffs and judges, Mexican vaqueros
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
A solitary hero
One weary sister said
She’d rather take a knife to bed
I found her in the morning her pretty wrist was red
But lovely lady laudanum
Helps to ease my pain
And I dream a while about my sheltered child
Who’ll never know her daddy’s name
Buffalo soldiers, Texas rangers,
dandy gamblers, gandy dancers
Sheriffs and judges, Mexican vaqueros
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
A solitary hero
I’ve heard there’s a sanctuary for soiled doves to fly
Trade their gaudy gowns for a novice’s robes of white
And when my daughter’s finished school and found a decent home
I will run to those good shepherds never to return to
Buffalo soldiers, Texas rangers, dandy gamblers, gandy dancers
Sheriffs and judges, Mexican vaqueros
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
A solitary hero

I’ll Cry for Yours (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Robert Jetton
Years have passed
But the pains still here
Leaving a legacy of hate and fear
Wrought iron gates and cold stone walls
The shadows cast upon us all
I’ll cry for yours
Will you cry for mine?
Our wounds will heal
Through tears and time
When they choose up sides
Will you cross that line?
I’ll cry for yours
Will you cry for mine?
My boy died much too young
And I know you grieve a son
Maybe your boy shot my boy down
Today we stand on common ground
I’ll cry for yours
Will you cry for mine?
Our wounds will heal
Through tears and time
When they choose up signs
Will you cross that line
I’ll cry for yours
Will you cry for mine?

Small Towns (Are Smaller for Girls) (LYRICS)
Written by: Alice Randall, Mark Sanders, Verlon Thompson
Small towns are smaller for girls
You can’t play in a big boys world
Dressed up in ribbons and curls
A stop light and a grocery store
She knows there’s got to be more
She could put a name to every face
In the town where she was raised
And everybody that she knew
knew every move she made
So she stood behind the backstop
Playing sweet sixteen
While the boys were stealing bases
And reaching from their dreams
Small towns are smaller for girls
You can’t play in a big boys world
Dressed up in ribbons and curls
A stop light and a grocery store
She knows there’s got to be more
‘Cause small towns are smaller for girls
She learned to dance around desire
And act like the nice girl act
While the boys found out all about love
With the girls across the tracks
While their souls burned holes
Through the heat of a summer night
She was reading ‘bout New York City
With her daddy’s flashlight
Small towns are smaller for girls
You can’t play in a big boys world
Dressed up in ribbons and curls
A stop light and a grocery store
She knows there’s got to be more
‘Cause small towns are smaller for girls

Big Dream (LYRICS)
I have a dream of my own
And it's mine all mine alone
It’s been my friend since I was just a girl
It has a life it has a heart
It has a soul and it's a part
Of everything this woman gives the world
And it's a big dream
Big enough to share
Like a rainbow, hanging in the air
And I thank God, for making it come true
Makes me think maybe God's a woman too
Makes me think God's a woman too
There's a full moon tonight
And I'm bathing in its light
As naked as the day that I was born
There is no shame beneath this sky
I have kissed the past goodbye
And mended up my broken heart so torn
With a sweet sound only I can make
And it gets stronger
With every breath I take
And it's all a part of making me feel new
Makes me think maybe God's a woman too
Makes me think God's a woman too

XXX's & OOO's (LYRICS)
What an American Girl is
What an American Girl?
Used to be hair tied up
Wearing ribbons and pearls
Look how she move now
She so sweet
She so tough
She wear her hair down now
Or if she do wear it up
It’s her natural curls
Wrapped
In ribbons and bows
While she stay signing letters
With XXXs and OOOs
And it’s XXXs and OOOs
Forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows and stay getting better now
She a picture
She a mama
In all black and pearls
Took her daddy’s world and made it wild
For Black American girls
I said she’s a daddy’s girl
In a daddy’s world
That how she got strong
Raised me in a house she paid for
Put our life in a song
And yes it’s XXX’s and OOOs
Forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows
And stay getting better now
Then the phone stayed ringing
The tv stayed lying
Y’all know I was that baby crying
Now the phone even worse
In your purse
Burn your eyes
Every screen a diet guru now
Telling every kind of lies
Watch her hustle, watch her fight,
Watch her write, for her life
She put on makeup
That’s her armor
To get through the day alive
Now she pay someone to fix the sink
She pay someone to mow the yard
Her life look real good now
Working so hard
We done with slow dances
Love thy self, that’s romances
With Aretha, God, and Patsy Matraca and good wine
Take every chance and then some
Kick down doors
Waste no time
Raised a real one
Mama’s girl
To run a brand new world
Raised me to wear my hair down
Raised me to love my curls
Taught me to sign my letters
Taught me to wear my pearls
And it is XXXs and OOOs forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows and stay getting better now
And it is XXXs and OOOs forever and ever now
Ribbons and bows and stay getting better now
For American girls

"Watching Vermont" Lyrics
I don’t know where I’m going
But I wont forget from where I came
I traded in for a bottle
I gave it all for anything
And the winter makes you lonely
When you’re looking for someone
But baby, I wont be the one
And this old road will soon be ending
I just can't tell which way to go
As your old place
It fades in the rearview
I’m trying to get my mind off you
And the winter makes you lonely
When you’re looking for someone
But baby I won’t be the one

Hello Stranger (LYRICS):
Hello stranger, put your loving hand in mine
Hello stranger, put your loving hand in mine
You are a stranger and you're a pal of mine
Get up, rounder, let a working girl lay down
Get up, rounder, let a working girl lay down
You are a rounder and you're all out and down
Oh every time I ride the six and fourth street car
Every time I ride the six and fourth street car
I can see my baby peeping through the bars
Well, he bowed his head and he waved both hands at me
He bowed his little head oh and he waved both hands at me
I’m prison bound and longing to be free
Oh, I'll see you when your troubles are like mine
I'll see you when your troubles are like mine
Oh, I'll see you when you haven't got a dime
Weeping like a willow and moaning like a dove
Weeping like a willow oh and moaning like a dove
There's a man up country that I really love
Hello stranger, put your loving hand in mine
Hello stranger, put your loving hand in mine
You are a stranger and you're a pal of mine

The Ballad of Sally Anne (LYRICS)
With love in his heart and flowers in his hand
Johnny proposed to Sally Anne
Sally shivered as she said,
"I'll love you till the day I'm dead"
Johnny got married in his one good suit
But the ride from church it bore strange fruit
Down by the road you can hear her cry
As he hung from a tree, she watched him die
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand?
When the fiddler takes the stand,
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Sally attends every wedding 'round here
Looking for her Johnny dear
You can feel them in the room
If the fiddler plays that tune
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand?
When the fiddler takes the stand,
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Sail away, ladies, Sail away!
Sail away, ladies, Sail away!
Dark young shadows cross the floor
As ghostly lovers dance once more
When weddin'g bells ring in that town
A ghostly virgin strolls the ground
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna touch her trembling hand
When the fiddler takes the stand,
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne?
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne
Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand
When the fiddler takes the stand
Who's gonna dance with Sally Anne

Went For A Ride (LYRICS)
He was black as the sky on a moonless night
Good with horses never reined them too tight
He rode with the best hell he rode with me
And they got it all wrong in that book of history
It wasn't cowboys and ponies it was horses and men
It wasn't school boys and ladies it was cow-towns and sin
There was blood on the leather and tears in their eyes
We swore at the devil and went for a ride
We told some tales, he told them best
Real life can always use a good stretch
But that don't change the things we did
Cause the realest thing was the life that we lived
It wasn't cowboys and ponies it was horses and men
It wasn't school boys and ladies it was cow-towns and sin
And there was blood on the leather and tears in her eyes
We swore at the devil and then we went for a ride…that’s right
More than one kind of pain, more than one kind of theft
And it’s bitter as the night that sweet Jesus wept
She stole my heart age stole the fire
They stole my prairie when they strung all that wire
It wasn't no cowboys and ponies it was horses and men
It wasn't no school boys and ladies it was cow-towns and sin
And there was blood on the leather and tears in her eyes
We swore at the devil and went for a ride
I swore at the devil and went for ride

LYRICS
I test the power of a gesture with the might of my weakest hand
Meanwhile Lillian's in crisis and devours the song in a man
I been to places where my only concern is the width of the wall
Maybe Lillian can tell me if she hears anything at all
I like a desperate situation but only the kind where ya win
Ain't nothin Lillian can do about the favors I ask of a friend
Man, it hurts my eyes seeing Time Square on movie screens
I wonder if Lillian has thoughts about the post-american dream
The heavier sigh comes without feeling
What beckons the sky is the pleasure of land
Around again, it never ends
Lillian
It only takes about a minute to dirty up the shirt I wash
I hope Lillian don't find me scrubbing the good times off
I'm comin down, comin down, ain't nobody wanna see me crash
Just figure Lillian is busy with the ghost that knows of her past
The heavier sigh comes without feeling
What beckons the sky is the pleasure of land
You tell me now, I told ya then
Lillian

LYRICS
Give me a reason and I'll give you something better
Instead of playing with the light in the air
Nothing is keepin' me from loving you forever
Well I been dreamin'
Dreamin' of the path
Yea,
I can do it, I can do it given half of a chance
It's like graffiti in a palace when I see you baby
You're vandalizing my in questionable taste
You say you're looking for someone to be your river
Well I been schemin'
Schemin' up a plan
Yea,
I can do it, I can do it with a little romance
I'm guessing she don't know exactly who I'm talkin' bout
Why should I say in front of strangers?
Infinite beauty don't ya give yourself a heart attack
I think about you night and day
Wherever I go
I'm comin' over in my father's father's Cadillac
I'll pick you up outside Decatur
Get to Savannah that's when we know we ain't comin' back
Ride in the town parade
Oh, lemme take you home
I always said it'd take some time
And now I'm ready like you used to be
Just had to figure out the road
I got scared of the changes it brings
But you were right all along now I see
I wanna be your reflection in me
Wanna shine like gold
To be your favorite word
To be a letter you read
To be a star in the sky
While you dance in the night
To be a beat of your heart
To be the boat you ride to the end of the line
To be your river

LYRICS
Why don't you fold a paper airplane
With all the time that you got
While you're waiting on jesus
In a parking lot
Where all the buildings are serrated
From your doomsday stare
Times is complicated
But ya just don't care
You watch the street lights all blow out
In a pastel haze
It's good to be here,
Yeah it's a fine ol' place
when you're taking all the colors in
May you find
All things right, all things right
Find you stranded in promise land
All things right, all things right
Are in the hand of the laughing man
Are in the hand of the laughing man
Yea he's always leaning towards the exit
As if he's falling out the room
And in a parallel dimension
He'd make a fine statue
He pays the meter by the hour
And walks a big blind dog
Yea, you know he eats like crazy
Because it's been so long
Spill out the whine from the chalice cup
Into the rusted drain
Now it's bleeding down to the river bank
It's hard to tell where the lie began
May you find
All things right, all things right
Find you stranded in promise land
All things right, all things right
Are in the hand of the laughing man
Are in the hand of the laughing man

LYRICS
Wanna be yo cover, wanna be yo light
(Wings for a butterfly)
The sound of morning slipped outta the sky
made you feel somethin' baby,
That I desire
In a field of clover, saw ya pass me by
(Wings for a butterfly)
Come out from your glory
I'll meet you somewhere we can relate
on a midnight sun
What does it matter how you fall from grace
What's in heaven that ain't buried in the ground
I saw your tower from the foot of my gate
Tell me baby, are you ever coming down
Or honey, should I look away
Do you ever wonder in the dead of night
(Wings for a butterfly)
That someone worthy of all of your time's
Right in front of you baby
I'm your fire
Yellow moon of summer, dontcha hear my cry?
(Wings for a butterfly)
Would you tell her for me?
There's no use in me trying to explain
like a flightless dove
What does it matter how you fall from grace
What's in heaven that ain't buried in the ground
I saw your tower from the foot of my gate
Tell me baby, are you ever coming down
Or honey, should I look away

LYRICS
In a dream you came to me
Just like you told me you would, babe
Too good to be true to be mine
Yeah, you crawled across an ocean of my memory
Called your name
Saying "C'mon, babe"
You're all I want, you're all I need
In the morning
I’m lookin for you, like you're looking for me
I know you know
Your love is good to me
Say you'll always be mine
Hold me to yo skin
Write me down in yo diary
You are the sunshine
Settling the wind
Baby imma let you win
win my heart
She burn a hole right thru my head
My girl is burning cherry red, cherry red
She's her own desire
As is mine
She can call you into action from serenity
Feed the flame
She drive me crazy
You're all i want, you're all i need
In the evening
I'm looking for you, like you're looking for me
I know you know
Your love is good to me
Your love will set me free
Your love is meant to be
Say you'll always be mine
Hold me to yo skin
Write me down in yo diary
You are the sunshine
Settling the wind
Baby imma let you win
win my heart

They only love you for yo face
Throwing your eyes like a pair of dice in a game
Run from Wyoming to LA
Changin’ up your story by the day
Yea
You got the whole town asking what’s yo name
Holding the door like a statue that you made
Some swear they seen you on a stage
In front of the lights and the cameras other's say
They only love you for yo face
Throwing your eyes like a pair of dice in a game
Run from Ohio to LA
Changin’ up your story by the day

LYRICS
1 for tha money
2 for tha show
3 in tha morning
Foreign roads
Right under the satellite's eye
Right under the satellite's eye
Where are you going?
Didn’t you know
It’s not for nuthin
They told me so
Right under the satellite's eye
Right under the satellite's eye
My prophets a weather balloon in the air
Watching over the shoulder of me and my friend
He comes in peace in the spirit of Christ
He’s from the east but he lives in the sky
My prophets been on the news
Ain't you seen a big white weather balloon?
Don’t get much prettier
1 for tha money
2 for tha show
3 in tha morning
Foreign roads
Right under the satellite's eye
Right under the satellite's eye
Where are you going?
Didn’t you know
It’s not for nuthin
They told me so
Right under the satellite's eye
Right under the satellite's eye
My prophet poured out his life unto death
Sacrificed for the burden of all of my sin
I saw him sink in an ocean of blood
In an act of unspeakable love
My prophet died just for you
Yeah I mean that big white weather balloon
Don't get much prettier
"Things I've seen?
The jagged coin behind the ear
The seagull's shadow thrown across the pier
The hoarse voice in the distance
A ripped circus ticket
The bubble in your bikini
The feigned punch
A clicking tongue
It's just enough to weigh,
It's just enough"
1 for tha money
2 for tha show
3 in tha morning
Foreign roads
Right under the satellite's eye
Right under the satellite's eye
Where are you going?
Didn’t you know
It’s not for nuthin
They told me so
Right under the satellite's eye
Right under the satellite's eye

LYRICS
Standing under telephone wire
(You took a piece of me)
There was a lot to blame
Screaming at the top of my lungs
(You took a piece of me)
It's such a crying shame
Time's left us both behind
(You took a piece of me)
There was a lot to blame
If everythings already been said
(You took a piece of me)
Then why do I feel so much coming out?
Who said it ain't a love song, mama?
More than one thang can be true
I always make a mess when I'm honest
Well good thing I make it after you
I made a wish upon a big star, mama
Just let me know if somethings changed
And you like me better when I'm in pain
Well baby just look at me now
As you leave me
Standing under telephone wire
(You took a piece of me)
There was a lot to blame
Screaming at the top of my lungs
(You took a piece of me)
It's such a crying shame
Time's left us both behind
(You took a piece of me)
There was a lot to blame
If everythings already been said
(You took a piece of me)
Then why do I feel so much coming out?
Who said it ain't a love song mama?
Only you can decide
You asked if are bad for each other
But I'm still making up my mind
I know you like me best when I'm blue
You say you see me as a distant mountain
Tell me how long its gonna take
Till I fade from view
Baby come and see me
What's one more night?
We could go out walkin'
In moonlight
Forget the future
Take it all take it now
It could be so easy
Feels just like leavin'
come on, come on baby
hold my hand
I got a feelin
I know you're feelin it too
Standing under telephone wire
(You took a piece of me)
There was a lot to blame
Screaming at the top of my lungs
You took a piece of me

TRAFFIC FICTION
In the mind of the wind is where I come from
Just let me ride till the end till I have my fun
Let me roll let me roll till I can't no more
Down the last empty road under blue skies
Zoom zoom zoom bang boom boom clack
Stereo is booming skip no track
I'm a blur in the world and in every town
Yeah, there's nothing as depressing as slowing me down
I see some red lights coming on strong
People braking where they don't belong
See for yourself and you'll realize just what it look like
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction, it's going around
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction, came up from the ground
Bringing me down
Put the fine for the bridge on the dash for the judge
Let it burn like a witch in the rhinestone sun
Every mile, every mile I'mma get reborn
But I'm dying by the minute, good lord
Move, move, moving, never going back
Silver moon is looming, sky is black
I'm a soul on parole in a desert land
Thrown back into prison and damned by the damned
I see some red lights coming on strong
People braking where they don't belong
You know the name and the warning signs
And what it look like
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction, it's going around
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction
Traffic fiction, came up from the ground
Bringing me down

KID IN THA YARD
(Forgot to turn the light on, baby)
I do what I what
When I'm paying the rent
I'll never be free
But I can pretend
The kids in tha yard
Discover the sky
I’m running from love
I'm passing em by
Impossible world
You done it again
You opened the door
And you let em all in
The evil of man
It knows how to fuck
It's moving on you
It's feeling you up
Don't it drive you crazy
Your river’s dry
There's still time to save it
Revive your spirit
Turn the light on baby
You're killing me
How you rely on the comfort of thieves
I do what I what
When I'm paying the rent
I'll never be free
But I can pretend
The kids in tha yard
Are diggin' the dirt
I’m wishin' em well
For whatever It’s worth
Don't it drive you crazy
Your river’s dry
There's still time to save it
Revive your spirit
Turn the light on baby
You're killing me
How you rely on the comfort of thieves
(Forgot to turn the light on, baby)

"SANTIAGO" (Lyrics)
I got the night to think about you
Every morning for some more bad news
It ain't easy shakin you off of me baby
Right now
I found a lighter in my coat
Said on the bottom, "Adios"
I took a second and spun it around
And thought of you somehow, I remember now
Santiago 2022
Where we relied on Irish Paul
for direction thru the Spanish walls
No tellin' it apart from a daydream
Oh child
On the ancient steps outside
of a cathedral in the summer light
You kept tappin your heel on the ground
Such a modern sound, I can hear it now
Semi-hollow, but it's comin thru
Like passing tides
Under the light of the road I cross
In the city, I watch the shadows fall
Been meaning to forget about all the pain in
My heart
When we said our last goodbye
At the station, I never asked you why
I know you better than trying to explain
How in another life I could make you stay
How I oughtta, Like I wanna do
Now there's a dark moon rising
I let you walk away
No I don't wanna start crying
Emily what to say?
I was afraid of trying
Always a little too late
Coulda had you I'm reminded
Some kind of way everyday
Emily, what to say?
I got the night to think about you
Every morning for some more bad news
It ain't easy shakin' you off of me baby
Right now
I found a lighter in my coat
Said on the bottom, "Adios"
I took a second and spun it around
And thought of you somehow, I remember now
Santiago 2022
