"Ramblin' Man"
(originally by Hank Williams)

"Ramblin' Man"
(originally by Hank Williams)



I can settle down and be doin' just fine
Till I hear an old train rollin' down the line
Then I hurry straight home and pack
And if I didn't go, I believe I'd blow my stack
I love you baby, but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me
He made a Ramblin' Man.

Some folks might say that I'm no good
That I wouldn't settle down if I could
But when that open road starts to callin' me
There's somethin' o'er the hill that I gotta see
Sometimes it's hard but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me, He made a Ramblin' Man.
I love to see the towns a-passin' by
And to ride these rails 'neath God's blue sky
Let me travel this land from the mountains to the sea
'Cause that's the life I believe He meant for me
And when I'm gone and at my grave you stand
Just say God called home your Ramblin' Man.

"Rat Faced Granny"

"Rat Faced Granny"



The owls are burning
She's sick of me
And I'm not leaving

So what's the story?
Like a good night's
They flash in nowhere

I couldn't be bothered
That's hurting me
The night of victory

He's ranked you bloody
I can't believe
And now it's over

Wild, nothing new
A night, nothing new
Oh, you think you're wild, but you're nothing new
And now you're wombed
Nothing new
And that's a wild, but it's nothing new
And now you're older
Nothing

What? Nothing new.
A night? Nothing new.
What about the heart, friend?
But now you're even
And you're worried
Nothing new
Don't even worry, and we'll think it's good
Good, good, good...

"Respite"

"Respite"



You almost scared me today
You almost scared me
It's a real stain on my sleeve
It's a real drag
Don't try to sound negative
I don't need to try
Fashion something that I always want
Tell me it's another day
I never wanted to
I never wanted you

"Revolve"

"Revolve"


Freedom on like stems from walk away.
You gotta hold your time,
You gotta hit it with the right of way.
Maybe black too far for any like the one seen.
In a way it's sane,
Either way it's gotta mean.
Red sister might be chokin'
But I ain't about that kind.
Answer me with the rhythm of a body that was born to lose two times.

[Chorus:]
Hey big Bodie
He says deny but your for tin lie.
Head my shoulder
Big boat deloves, big boat deny.

They might try to hide
But they have to have some more dead sense.
You might be right
Like a ball in the wind.
Poison dandy lifeforms crime.
Mix both down cross,
Sticky pedal the line.
The flavor might be missin'
But he acts to cross that anyway.
You can bet he can diddle with the promise in the power of another day.

[Chorus]

Two of you sold my wallet.
One of you stole my tie.
Didn't you say that you're watching?
Do or die.
Venomous strange appears.
Three of you standing by.
Didn't you say that you've got it?
Watch me eye.

"Revulsion / We Reach"

"Revulsion / We Reach"


[Revulsion]

Repelled by just the sight
You take me you feel me coming on
It repells the big strong man
Now you want to take me for everything I am
Gotta word that's coming up coming up my throat.
It's a long ass word, gonna make me choke.
I like to hold my pride
Right in between my hands.
So I can feel it hang.

[We Reach]

I could have hoped for a better piece of your man.
Better times I wrote for glass, less, wind.
From both behinds in back, we're reaching one of each, in time.
Heart like a picture to be.
Hardly, we reach.

"Roadbull"

"Roadbull"



And the prophet holding man
Sings as to where I find it
5-0 the gingeree
Missing all, missing all.

Keep out
Be war
Need freedom
Key

And the prophet injury
Lap warm and hold and keen
Been lord in time
I like the warm and I.

"Roll Another One"


Roll another one.
Is it running?
Jeff, Thomas. [4x]

Ok Leute, ich werd euch hier mal was erzählen, wat mir passiert ist, ja.
Ich hab gestern mir ein Auto gekauft, da ist doch tatsächlich mir so 'n Idiot gestern reingefahren.
Was soll ich'n dir dazu noch sagen, ey?
Stell dir mal vor, ich hab für den Wagen 4000 Mark gezahlt.
Und dann fährt mir so ein scheiß Idiot hinten rein, ey.
Und jetzt sitz ich mit irgendwelchen Musikern, ich glaub die sind aus Amerika, und die lachen sich halb tot wegen mir, ey.

Ey Leute, wie soll'n das hier weitergehen?
'N bisschen Disziplin! Disziplin! Habt ihr gehört?
Hey, jetzt hört doch auf! Ok.
Ey, hört mal zu hier, ey! Ich hab mir gestern ein Haus in der Landschaft gekauft.
Und ich hab mir gedacht, ok, äh, draußen im Grünen und so, da wird es ruhig sein und da werd ich ein bisschen die Natur genießen können.
Und wisst ihr was? Da ist ein scheiß Nachbar gekommen und der hat sich 'n Schwein gekauft.
Und dieses Schwein, das stinkt. Ich werd es erschießen, das stinkt.
Was soll dieser ganze Mist hier, ey?
Ich werd ausreisen. Ich halt's hier nicht mehr aus.
Ich halt's hier wirklich nicht mehr aus.
Wisst ihr wie hier, wie die Leute mich hier nennen, bei uns in Spukenhausen?
Nennst Du mich Spukenhausen, ey?
Ey Leute, ich heiß Walter von Krampfenberg, und nicht Spukenhausen.

"Roman Dog Bird"

"Roman Dog Bird"



Lysol to get me high,
Two shots dispel my fear
Baby you need to sniff sum 'sol,
and I to be

She walks like animal,
I can walk & be so free
She walk in like animal,
but I can walk like man

She knows this world on war,
I could be one, my one took a little world

Hyponeedle will get so sore,
I will go too well for me
It's sure to get you there,
I'm made to see

She walks like animal,
I can walk and be so free
She walks in like animal,
but I can walk like man!

She knows like a world of war,
I could be one,
my one would a little world

I could've felt no woman like you,
Under the world war tears to find
I could have felt no woman like you,
under the world war tears to find now.

"Sacrifice"

"Sacrifice"



Can you hear the war cry?
It's time to enlist
The people speak as one
The cattle, the crowd
Those too afraid to live
Demand a sacrifice
Of your life

Can you smell their stinking breath?
Listen to them
Wheezing and gasping and
Chanting their slogans
It's a grave digger's song
Praising God & State
So the Nation will live
So we all can remain as cattle.

Can you smell the fresh blood
Steaming into the soil?
As our patriots,
Fathers, mothers and lovers
Admire the military style
Praising God and the State
Crying tears of pride
For all the fools slaughtered
For the maimed, the dying
And the dead
So the Nation will live
So the people will remain as cattle.

"Safety Third"

"Safety Third"



Do you
Find me
Dumb?

Do?

Blind is a nail stinking in my head
Gonna be a hero when its all over
