"Been Around The World"

"Been Around The World"


Well is it such a sin to linger with the magazines
I want a chocolate bar or maybe something sweet
I want a stranger with your face
So I followed her to this place
It's been so long
I've been around the world

I say hello to howie
Say hello to spike
'cause the canals in camden are filled with bottles tonight
To watch the ripples fade away
To feel the rain upon my head
So I could say, I've been around the world

And how I wish I was in your apartment tonight
To hear the rain come down, down upon your roof
To see your clothes beside, clothes beside your bed
To lie and listen to your breath
Instead, I've been, I've been around the world

And how I wish I was in your bed tonight
To taste the salt upon, salt upon your neck
To feel your body press, pressing down on me
Instead of being, I've been around the world

Yeah I've been around,
I've been around the world
Yeah I've been around,
I've been around the world

"Better Times Are Coming Our Way"

"Better Times Are Coming Our Way"


Come in number 43
You seem surprised to see me
Just relax this won't take long
A mere formality

Would you like to have a Coke
A lawyer or perhaps a smoke
All of these things can be provided

Better times they are coming our way
Coming our way
Coming our way
You know that better times they are coming our way
Coming our way

Don't be shy and don't deny
We've all seen the evidence
Clearly this is not your first offense

An airtight case we all agree
Though we've seen worse quite frequently
Nonetheless you crossed that threshold

Better times they are coming our way
Coming our way
Coming our way
You know that better times they are coming our way
Coming our way

Cup of coffee number 43
The big man he will be right along
So just relax it won't take long
A mere formality

The camel small the needle large
No my friend you're not in charge
We've heard it all before
Just await your reckoning

Better times they are coming our way
Coming our way
Coming our way
You know that better times they are coming our way
Coming our way

Open up number 8
She's standing at the garden gate
Little Bo-Peep with a pit-bull

Open up, number four, unlatch your back door
I’m a soldier in the army of…

"Bicycle Spaniard"

"Bicycle Spaniard"


And it's a long, long way to the top
But when you come down it's one headlong rush

You've got an itch to scratch the shiny bits of light
Hanging like stars, Hanging like stars

And Mary says, you're such a restless soul
My Bicycle Spaniard, my Magyar of coal

You've got an itch to find what's best left lost and cold
My Bicycle Spaniard, my poor restless soul
My Bicycle Spaniard, my poor restless soul

"Big Dipper"

"Big Dipper"


Cigarettes and carrot juice
Get yourself a new tattoo
For those sleeveless days of June
I'm sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps
With a book I haven't started yet
Watching all the girls walk by

Could I take you out
I'd be yours without a doubt
On that big dipper
And if the sound of this it frightens you
We could play it real cool
And act somewhat indifferent

And hey June
Why'd you have to come
Why'd you have to come around so soon
I wasn't ready for all this nature
The terrible green, green grass
The violent blooms of flower dresses
And afternoons that make me sleepy

But we could wait awhile
Before we push that dull turnstile
Into the passage
The thousands they have tread
And others sometimes fled
Before the turn came

And we could wait our lives
Before a chance arrives
Before the passage
From the top you can see Monterey
Or think about San Jose
Although I know it's not that pleasant

And hey Jim Kerouac
Brother of the famous Jack
Or so he likes to say, lucky bastard
He's sitting on the cafe's inner steps
With a girl that I'm not over yet
Watching all the world go by

Boy you're looking bad
Did I make you feel that sad?
I'm honestly flattered
But if she asks me out
I'd be hers without a doubt
On that big dipper

A Cigarette and carrot juice
And get yourself a new tattoo
For those sleeveless days of June
I'm sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps
I haven't got the courage yet
I haven't got the courage yet
I haven't got the courage yet

"Blue Danube Blues"

"Blue Danube Blues"


don't know why I come back to this place
no-one seems to re-e-member my face
I got the blue danube blues for you

Now all the girls around here, they're just a little corn-fed
Don't drink at all, I can't get them in bed
I got the blue danube blues for you

[Bridge:]
Now all my friends now I'm back at home
don't wanna hang around, they stay at home

They all got jobs and kids and wake up before noon

[Chorus:]
A yodel-odel-ay-ee-tee
A yodel-odel-ay-ee-e-tee-oh
I got the blue danube blues for you

[Repeat bridge]

[Repeat chorus]

I got the blue danube blues for you

"Brides Of Neptune"

"Brides Of Neptune"


She says this is my movie,
so you'll do what I tell you.
There's a mixup in Bali -
you get chased by a monkey.

Brides of Neptune cross the water,
bring us your sons and bring us your daughters.
I won't forsake thee deep in the blue sea;
I'll take you home.

Brides of Neptune cross the water,
bring us your sons and bring us your daughters.
I won't forsake thee deep in the blue sea;
I'll take you home.

I tried dating a mermaid;
she buys pot from the first mate.
That mysterious cargo
is still guarded by monkeys.
Then

Brides of Neptune cross the water,
bring us your sons and bring us your daughters.
I won't forsake thee deep in the blue sea;
I'll take you home.
Brides of Neptune cross the water,
bring us your sons and bring us your daughters.
I won't forsake thee deep in the blue sea;
I'll take you home.

Brides of Neptune cross the water,
bring us your sons and bring us your daughters.
I won't forsake thee deep in the blue sea;
I'll take you home.
Brides of Neptune cross the water,
bring us your sons and bring us your daughters.
I won't forsake thee deep in the blue sea;
I'll take you home.

Brides of Neptune

"Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room"

"Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room"


She wore red dresses with her black shining hair
She had my baby and caused me to care
Then coldly she left me to suffer and cry
She wore red dresses and told such sweet lies

I never knew him but he took her away
And on my knees like a madman for vengeance I prayed
While the pain and the anger destroyed my weak mind
She wore red dresses and left the wounded behind

I searched till I found them, then I cursed at the sight
Of their sleeping shadows in the cold neon light
In the dark morning silence I placed the gun to her head
She wore red dresses, but now she lay dead

"California Country Boy"

"California Country Boy"


Ain't no palm trees where I come from
No big waves crashing on the shore
No grid-locked traffic, no movie stars, no
In the part of California I come from
We got oil fields in the Central Valley
We cowboys out in the Mojave
Selena Valley, yeah where I come from
We got farms, far as the eye can see
[CHORUS:]
Now I got good friends out in Texas
And I got family in Tennessee
But this here country boy's from California
Ain't no place I'd rather be
Ain't no place I'd rather be
From Pasa Robles to the Owens Valley
From Manchester on down the Salton Sea
It's where I pick this guitar, it's where I write these songs
Ain't no place that I'd rather be
[CHORUS:]
Yeah I got good friends out in Texas
And I got family in Tennessee
But this here country boy's from California
Ain't no place I'd rather be
Ain't no place I'd rather be
Ain't no palm trees, ain't no movie stars
In the part of California I come from

"Can I Take My Gun To Heaven?"

"Can I Take My Gun To Heaven?"


Can I take my gun up to heaven?
You know she's always been by my side
So can I take my gun up to heaven?
I'll check it with St. Peter at the gate

And if I had a woman that was faithful
Or even kind some of the time
I'd drag her on up to the gates of heaven
Or follow her right down to the gates of hell

So can I take my gun up to heaven?
You know she's always been by my side
So can I take my gun up to heaven?
I'll check it with St. Peter at the gate

When I come home from a long day a-working at the prison
I find my woman she's not around
She's down at dahlie's corner a-playing cards and drinking
Or sitting on the cars singing dixie with the boys

Can I take my gun up to heaven?
You know she's always been by my side
So can I take my gun up to heaven?
I'll check it with St. Peter at the gate

Can I take my gun up to heaven?
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
Can I take my gun up to heaven?

Can I take my gun up to heaven?

"China"

"China"


Ah Miss Mary won't you please come home from China.
Bring a bottle of whiskey and a tin cup for your teeth.
Don't you sneak into the back door wearing some disguise.
Knock on the front door in view of the Temperance Guild.

Ah Miss Mary won't you please come home cause I miss ya.
Your old spinster sister don't always give good advice.
Look at her she's in love with that drunken bandy-legged sheriff.
He'll unzip her pantsuit, but never leave his fat wife

[CHORUS:]
Ah Miss Mary won't you please come home from China.
Come home from China.
Come home from China.

[CHORUS]

Now that fake old beatnik poet the volunteer fireman.
He don't care if you come, he don't like I do.
He's in love with his dog and all his volunteer fireman.
And he is afraid to let the end of his versus rhyme.

[CHORUS X2]
