"Hold Of Myself"

"Hold Of Myself"


Hold of myself
Just trying to get a hold of myself
Scaring my friends, just trying to get a hold of myself

Sabotage all I set out to do
I can't imagine how that looks to you
Just don't go away, just trying to get a hold of myself

Got me a dog, I think it's time I got me a dog
To be my little pal, I think it's time I got me a dog
Last one I had got hit by a car
Kept right on going and I took it real hard
Now it's time to move on, I think its time I got me a dog

Ah, oh, oh oh oh
Ah, oh, oh oh oh
Ah, oh, oh oh oh

Fork in the road, I think we're coming to a fork in the road
Take it from me, I know we're coming to a fork in the road
I miss the days when you could laugh at yourself
You rip my heart out when you don't want my help
Take it from me, we're coming to a fork in the road

Hold of myself, just trying to get a hold of myself

"Hollywood Cemetery"

"Hollywood Cemetery"


I left my baby,
I left her down in hollywood cemetery
Weren't a cloud in the sky,
but how I wish it was raining
well I know it was wrong
to feel love like a burden
but if we all were angels heaven would be earth
so I left my baby,
I left her down in hollywood cemetery.
She got her petees? and coffee,
while the band plays a funeral dirge
In new orleans mardi gras,
but I'm sick as a dog, here in texas
When the one that you love's
in the arms of another man
You've got to rise above it,
and let her go
Leave your baby down,
leave her down at hollywood cemetery

"How Can I Live Without You"

"How Can I Live Without You"


You can still come and bring me coffee in the morning
You can still come and make me chicken fried steak
Or you can live your life with whomever you please to
As long as someone takes good care of me
You know I don't mind
How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
You can still come and bring me those fancy pastries
You can still come and crawl into my bed
You can live your life with whomever you please to
As long as someone takes good care of me
You know I don't mind
How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
Yeah!
How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
(How can) How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job
(How can) How can I live without you
If it means I gotta get a job

"I Can't Forget You"

"I Can't Forget You"


Gold summer wheat
It sways in the breeze
'Til it fades in the Autumn
To brown
Cool summer grass
It beckons and calls
And I lie here with you
In my heart
I can't forget you
I can't forget you
I can't forget you
At all
Birds take to the sky
They never aligned
They circle around
Forever
Now I tried but I failed
To hide and disguise
This one simple sentiment
I can't forget you
I can't forget you
I can't forget you
No, no
I can't forget you
I can't forget you
I can't forget you
At all
No, no

"I Could Be Wrong, I Could Be Right"

"I Could Be Wrong, I Could Be Right"


Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Darlin, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Cause the devil come out and
Take you for his own [x2]
Long brown hair and tall brown boots
You came across the bitter roots
Finally take what you knew was always yours
I was glad to go along
I didn't think it'd be so long
Til you were bored and on to the next big thing
I could be wrong, I could be right
You and I are so much alike
The devil tryin to keep us far apart
Now I was stoned and I was high
But everything, it felt so right
I could be wrong, I could be, could be right
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Darlin, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Cause the devil come out and
Take you for his own
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Darlin, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Cause the devil come out
Sacagawea, big medicine
Had a thing they need my stand
When they finally saw the western sea
I was glad to go along
Cause the best laid plans are always wrong
They come apart, they always end in misery
I could be wrong, I could be right
What we do is all so right
They should be left to keep us far apart
I was high and I was stoned
I didn't want to be alone
Is that so wrong? Is that so wrong?
I could be wrong, I could be right
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Darlin, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Baby, don't ya go,
Don't ya look down in that hole
Cause the devil come out
And keep you for his own
I could be wrong,
I could be right
What we do is all so right
They should be left to keep us far apart
I was high and I was stoned
I didn't want to be alone
Is that so wrong? Is that so wrong?
I could be right
I could be wrong,
I could be right
I could be wrong,
I could be right
I could be wrong,
I could be, could be right [x4]

"I Drink Water"

"I Drink Water"


I drove a car from new york city
all the way to new orleans
I was watching at the window
but I don't know what it means
The world is full of contradictions
I nearly quit to reconcile
But when I'm thirsty I drink water
And when I'm hungry I have lunch
and I like the pop songs on the radio
though they rarely make much sense
and I like cream and I like sugar in my coffee and my tea
If you know what I mean
Now all my friends are getting sober
You might say downright a-serious
You know they're making themselves better
A-making themselves better just for what?
And I like the pop songs on the radio
Especially when they've got three chords - this one's got four
And I like cream and I like sugar in my coffee and my tea
If you know what I mean
So won't you please lift off your burden
Of searching for significance
And if you're thirsty, drink some water
And if you love me, live with me
a-when I'm thirsty I drink water
a-when I'm thirsty I drink water
a-when I'm thirsty I drink water
a-when I'm thirsty I drink water
Ok, how were the levels then?

"I Need Better Friends"

"I Need Better Friends"


I was drifting down the coast
With the girl I love the most
But it's not what you might think
It's a long and tragic history

When will this shit end
I need better friends
But for now it's fine

And I was smoking lots of weed
Trying to forget what you meant to me
Hanging out with folks just half my age
Buying things which ain't a lot [?]

Sometimes baby shoes [?]
Sometimes real shoes
Of those we ditch six [?]

And I was drifting down the coast
With the girl I love the most
From Pojolina[?] to Stinson Bay
From Akela[?] to Bodega Bay

When will this shit end
I need better friends
But for now it's fine

And I was drinking jasmine tea
When the goon squad came to me
It was all my drunken friends
they kicked down my front door again

I need better friends
But for now it's fine

"I Ride My Bike"

"I Ride My Bike"


And I ride my bike
And I drive my car
I drive it all around just to take me back to you
And I comb my hair
And I wear a dress
I wear it all around just to take me back to you
I ride my bike, take me back to you
I drive my car, take me back to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
And I ride my bike
And I drive my car
I drive it all around just to take me back to you
And I comb my hair
And I wear a dress
I wear it all around just to take me back to you
I ride my bike, take me back to you
I drive my car, take me back to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
This is a story about a dog, a dog
When I ride my bike
And my hair is blowing straight back
I think of you wearing that brown mohair sweater
Soft mounds of breasts underneath
Or better yet one of those squiggly aluminum lawn chairs
I'm putting sun tan lotion on your long legs
Wearing a broad rim straw hat
Pair of Mickey mouse sunglasses
Looking just like lolita
Looking just like lolita
White sheets hanging on the line
White sheets blowing in the wind
A satellite dish pointed straight up at the heavens
A satellite dish pointing straight up at the heavens
Isis! (Isis) (Isis)
Isis Isis Isis Isis
Isis Isis Isis Isis
Isis Isis Isis Isis
Oh yeah!
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you
I ride my bike, I drive my car, take me to you

"I See The Light"

"I See The Light"


I'd really like to see you now
In your father's combat boots
I'd really like to be with you
'Cause we could be so dark
It was only for the grace of you
That I got this attitude
I'll show you my gratitude
When I make it though

I see the light at the end of the tunnel now (I see the light)
Someone please tell me it's not a train (train, I see the light)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel now (I see the light)
No time to speak, no time to explain

Sometimes I imagine you
Lying in your bed
Sometimes you imagine too
Do you sometimes lust
For the grace that others have inside
The simple peace they make with life
They feel love like some summer's night
Well I want it too

I see the light at the end of the tunnel now (I see the light)
Someone please tell me it's not a train (train, I see the light)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel now (I see the light)
No time to speak, no time to explain

(I see the light)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel now (I see the light)
Someone please tell me it's not a train (train, I see the light)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel now (I see the light)
No time to speak, no time to explain

I see the light now, I see the light now, I see the light now, now
I see the light now, I see the light now, I see the light now, now, now, now
I see the light now, I see the light now, I see the light
I see the light I see the light
I see the light, now, now, I see the light, I see the light, now
I see the light now, I see the light now, I see the light
I see the light now, I see the light now, I see the light
