Dirt Road to Heaven
04:24
|
|||
There's so little left to choose, now that everyone has gone
What was passed on to me is now all worn down
There's dirt on my shoes, where once there was gold
Lost for so long, it's the only way I know
I'm on a dirt road to heaven
Walkin' in my own direction
I heard that there's a highway in the sky
But it's not mine, no it's not mine
Where is the sun that used to shine, on this dark, lonely town
You won't see me here again, I'm already gone
I'm picking up my pace, there's signs along the way
What I need I've yet to find, but I'm lookin' everyday
I'm on a dirt road to heaven
Walkin' in my own direction
I heard that there's a highway in the sky
But it's not mine, no it's not mine
Where is the sun that used to shine, on this dark, lonely town
You won't see me here again, I'm already gone
I'm picking up my pace, there's signs along the way
What I need I've yet to find, but I'm lookin' everyday
I'm on a dirt road to heaven
Walkin' in my own direction
I heard that there's a highway in the sky
But it's not mine, no it's not mine

Woman Like That

Why do I have to know w woman like that
I can't get that woman off my back
She comes around demanding a piece of my time
Why does she want to be a friend of mine
Well I met her several years ago when I was still a kid
She seemed to like something that I did
She'd call me in the middle of the night and ask me for advice
What I didn't realize then, that woman wasn't nice
Why do I have to know w woman like that
I can't get that woman off my back
She comes around demanding a piece of my time
Why does she want to be a friend of mine
As the years went by she wanted to be thicker than kin
And I couldn't get her unglued from my skin
Just like Uriah Heep she's an unctuous as they come
What does she want from me my friend I'm wonderin'
Why do I have to know w woman like that
I can't get that woman off my back
She comes around demanding a piece of my time
Why does she want to be a friend of mine
I told her I was gonna get married, she got drunk and had a hissy fit
I said hey girl what's the matter with you and then she came out with it
She told me that she'd always been in love with me, my mind just went a blur
'Cause if I was ever gonna gp gay, well it sure wouldn't be with her
Why do I have to know w woman like that
I can't get that woman off my back
She comes around demanding a piece of my time
Why does she want to be a friend of mine
I moved halfway around the world, settled down by the river Clyde
Somehow she tracked em down again and I'm thinking suicide
But I wouldn't fall that easy so I packed my bags again
But I'm looking over my shoulder 'cause she's just around the bend
Why do I have to know w woman like that
I can't get that woman off my back
She comes around demanding a piece of my time
Why does she want to be a friend of mine

All I'll Ever Need
03:07

You found the heart I tried so hard to hide
You looked at me and I could see myself in your eyes
All that you have, all you don’t have, is all I’ll ever need
Through all the tears and miles and trials we’ve had
Nothing could keep the thought of you out of my head
All that you have all you don’t have is all I’ll ever need
All that you have all you don’t have is all I’ll ever need

Hurricane Watch
03:45
|

Like a hurricane watch, the balmy breeze brought the power of the wind my way
Picking me up, don't it make me feel like it could carry me away
Well I'm just sittin' here waiting, watching and wondering
Which way it's going to go
When you're out of control the storm can blow a hole right through your soul
Will it be pleasure, will it be pain
When it all ends up, will you be washed by the rain
Or face down lying on the ground
It's a mystery never knowing where you're gonna touch down
When you're pushed to the edge and your mind is breaking
And you're looking for some solid ground
A resting place within the storm
But you don't know if it can be found
Well I'm just sittin' here waiting, watching and wondering
Which way it's going to go
When you're out of control the storm can blow a hole right through your soul
Will it be pleasure, will it be pain
When it all ends up, will you be washed by the rain
Or face down lying on the ground
It's a mystery never knowing where you're gonna touch down
Will it be pleasure, will it be pain
When it all ends up, will you be washed by the rain
Or face down lying on the ground
It's a mystery never knowing where you're gonna touch down

Last Cute Minute

This could be my last cute minute
Gotta take advantage while I can
I wanna get me some good good lovin'
But he's gonna have to be a special kind of man
Someone not on social security
Not on disability, too
Someone with low cholesterol
Osteoporosis just won't do
This could be my last cute minute
Gotta take advantage while I can
I wanna get me some good good lovin'
But he's gonna have to be a special kind of man
Someone who'll put up with my whinin'
Gonna have to be so brave
He'll have a healthy checkbook
Someone not one foot in the grave
This could be my last cute minute
I'm lookin pretty good right now
Sunset's not too harsh on my wrinkles
And my hair's hangin' down coverin' up my jowls
It's ok if his eyesight's going down the tubes
I'll look better in the morning, when the light is rude
I don't need a Casanova, but I don't want a prude
So hurry up sweet darlin 'cause time won't wait for you
This could be my last cute minute
Gotta take advantage while I can
I wanna get me some good good lovin'
But he's gonna have to be a special kind of man
This could be my last cute minute
This could be my last cute minutes
