"Down To My Last Come And Get Me"

"Down To My Last Come And Get Me"



Here I sit in this ginmill an empty in my hand
The telephone's three steps away but I can hardly stand
Got five pennies in my pocket but Lord I'm gonna need ten
Cause I gotta phone my baby to come and pick me back again.

And I'm down to my last come and get me
Just to me she said I do so many times before
Hey I'm down to my last come and get me
But I wonder if I'm worth to come and get me anymore.

The promises I made to her Lord knows I tried to keep
But there's always somethin' somewhere makes the strongest man get weak
And there ain't no use in runnin' and there's nowhere left to hide
When you drunk up all your promises and passed away your pride.

And I'm down to my last come and get me
Just to me she said I do so many times before
Hey I'm down to my last come and get me
But I wonder if I'm worth to come and get me anymore.

Well, I wonder if I'm worth to come and get me anymore...

"Dream Baby"

"Dream Baby"



Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
How long must I dream?

Dream baby got me dreamin'
Sweet dreams the whole day through
Dream baby got me dreamin'
Sweet dreams nighttime too.

I love you and I'm dreamin' of you
That won't do
Dream baby make me stop my dreamin'
You can make my dreams come true.

Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
How long must I dream?

Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
How long must I dream?

Dream baby got me dreamin'
Sweet dreams the whole day through
Dream baby got me dreamin'
Sweet dreams nighttime too...

"Drink Up And Go Home"

"Drink Up And Go Home"



You sit there a crying cry in your beer
You think you got troubles well my friend listen here
Don't tell me your troubles I got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home.

I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the pen
Lost my wife and fam'ly no one to call friend
Don't tell me your troubles I got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home.

Now there stands a blind man a man who can't see
Yet he's not complaining why should you or me
If you'd look around you I'm sure you would find
There's folks who got troubles worse than yours and mine.

I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the pen
Lost my wife and fam'ly no one to call friend
Don't tell me your troubles I got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home.

Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home...

"Drinkin' And Druggin' And Watchin' Tv"

"Drinkin' And Druggin' And Watchin' Tv"



If anyone met us they'd surely agree
We're proper as any two people can be
We're clean cut well mannered well dressed and polite
But oh if they'd see us at night.

When we're drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV
Eatin' cold pizza and drinkin' ice tea
Just you and me and the devil makes three
Drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV.

So you bring the chemicals I bring the wine
I fiddle with yours and you diddle with mine
Then drunked and drugged we fall on our backs
Naturally performing unnatural acts.

Such as drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV
Eatin' cold pizza and drinkin' ice tea
Just you and me and the devil makes three
Drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV.

In the flickin' TV light we're goin' to hell
Makin' love with the sound off the PTL
Jim Baker can see what you're doin' to me
Drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV.

So stop drinkin' stop druggin' stop watchin' TV
Stop eatin' cold pizza and drinkin' ice tea
Stop lovin' your life degenerately
Drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV.

Drinkin' and druggin' and watchin' TV...

"Drinkin' From The Bottle"

"Drinkin' From The Bottle"



Drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart
Cryin' blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
Drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart.

Harlan sang us Heartaches By The Number one more time
Johnny tell us how that woman helped you Walk the Line
Willie sing us Hello Walls cause we all know our flaws
We've been drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart.

That blonde there sittin' on the floor my sad song made her cry
I think she caught my zipper bout the time I caught her eye
Well she can take my body home but who's gonna drive the car
We've been drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart.

Drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart
Cryin' blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
Drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart.

Now I sip my Chivits from a fancy crystal glass
A young ambitions eight piece pot band a pushin' at my ass
While we're singin' for the money I think back to the start
When we were drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart.

So let's start drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart
Cryin' blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
Drinkin' from the bottle and singin' from the heart...

"Dropkick Me Jesus"

"Dropkick Me Jesus"



Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life
End over end, neither left nor to right
Straight through the heart of them, righteous up rights
Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life

Make me, oh, make me, Lord, more than I am
Make me a piece in Your master game plan
Free from the earthly tem pestion below
I've got the will, Lord, if You got the toe

Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life
End over end, neither left nor to right
Straight through the heart of them, righteous up rights
Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life

Bring on the brothers who've gone on before
And all of the sisters who've knocked on your door
All the departed, dear, loved ones of mine
Stick 'em up front in the offensive line

Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life
End over end, neither left nor to right
Straight through the heart of them, righteous up rights
Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life

Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life
End over end, neither left nor to right
Straight through the heart of them, righteous up rights
Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life

Yeah, dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life
End over end, neither left nor to right

"Dropping Out Of Sight"

"Dropping Out Of Sight"



I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile
I'll be crying and crying's not my style
If they ask you how I took it say I smiled
But I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile.

This town can do without me for a laughing stock
Since she's gone I'm in a funny state of shock
And I'm so troubled I could walk a thousand miles
So I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile.

If you don't see me living like I did
You'll know the coward in me went and hid
Before this same old circle drives me wild
I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile.

Yes, I'll be dropping out of sight for awhile...

"Drunk And Crazy"

"Drunk And Crazy"



Well, hello everybody, I've come to say
I didn't come to stay, I just come to play
So lock all the doors and open up the wine
Tell all the pretty ladies to get in line.

'Cause I'm drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Gonna let the good times roll.

Way cross the room I see a fancy fox
I got the key to open up her lock
I slide across the floor like a greasy eel
I say, hey baby, tell me how do you feel.

I say, I'm drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Gonna let the good times roll.

Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Gonna let the good times roll.

I was just about to put the cake in the oven
Look over my shoulder there's her big ol' husband
He was turnin' blue he was seein' red
He knocked me down slapped me round and stomped on my head.

Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Gonna let the good times roll.

They got me to the hospital in the nick of time
I had fractured skull and a busted spine
When in come the doctor he could hardly stand
Got a bottle in his pocket and a scalpel in his hand.

And he was drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Drunk and crazy
Gonna let the good times roll...

"Early Morning Rain"

"Early Morning Rain"



In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain and no place to go.

Out on runway No 9 big 7-0-7 set to go
But I'm standing on the grass where the cold wind blows
Well, the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
There she goes my friend she's a rolling now at last.

Hear that mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high
She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly
Where the morning rain don't fall and the sun will always shine
She'll be flying o'er my home in about three hours time.

This old airport's got me down it's no earthly good to me
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground cold and drunk as I can be
You can't jump a big jet plane like you can an old freight train
So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain.

So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain...

"Easy As Dreaming"

"Easy As Dreaming"



Lord, it's easy as dreaming
Falling in love with you
But it's hard as dying
Knowing these dreams won't come true.

Tonight as I lie here sleepless without you
And think on the sweet love we knew
That goes from the past sets me dreaming bout you
And starts that old flame up anew.

And it's easy as dreaming
Falling in love with you
But it's hard as dying
Knowing these dreams won't come true.

Now I should be lettin' my poor heart forget you
And start out gettin' over the fall
But I'd rather keep you right here in my dreamin'
And never to have you at all.

And it's easy as dreaming
Falling in love with you
But it's hard as dying
Knowing these dreams won't come true.

Just knowing these dreams won't come true...
