"Every Part Of Me"

"Every Part Of Me"



I love you with all my heart
All my soul, every part of me.
It's all I can do to mark
Where you end and where I start you see.

Living long in my travels left a trail of tears behind me
and then there are so many times
didn't think this kind
would ever find me.

I love you with everything, all my weakness
All my strength
I can't promise anything except that my last breath
will bear your name
and when I'm gone they'll sing a song
about a lonely fool wandering around the world and back again
but in the end they find the founder.?

I love you with all my heart
all my soul and every part of me.

Across the universe I'll spin until the end and then I wonder
If we should get another chance
could I have that dance forever under
the moon and skylit stars shining down on where you are
and I love you with all my heart
all my soul and every part of me.

"Everyone's In Love With You"

"Everyone's In Love With You"



Everyone's in love with You
Everyone's in love with you
But you don't seem to mind
But it must be tough when you're cleanin' up
Them broken hearts sometimes
Or maybe you just struggle through
And leave 'em where they lie
But everyone's in love with you
In love with you

Everyone's in love with you
They fall down at your feet
And impale themselves knowin' full well
You'll only watch 'em bleed
And they won't stop 'til the final drop
'Cause they think it's what you need
And everyone's in love
In love with you

You want everyone to want you
But you don't want anyone to need you
'Cause baby you don't need to

Everyone's in love with you
Or don't you think I know
The way they all light up when you show up
And you're baskin' in the glow
I'd like to say that I ain't that way
Like all your other fools
But everyone's in love with you
And I am, too
I am, too

"F The CC"

"F The CC"



I used to listen to the radio
And I don't guess they're listenin' to me no more
They talk too much but that's okay
I don't understand a single word they say
Piss and moan about the immigrants
But don't say nothin' about the president
A democracy don't work that way
I can say anything I wanna say

So fuck the FCC
Fuck the FBI
Fuck the CIA
Livin' in the motherfuckin' USA

People tell me that I'm paranoid
And I admit I'm gettin' pretty nervous, boy
It just gets tougher everyday
To sit around and watch it while it slips away
Been called a traitor and a patriot
Call me anything you want to but
Just don't forget your history
Dirty Lenny died so we could all be free

"Fearless Heart"

"Fearless Heart"



Don't you worry bout what you've been told
Cause honey I ain't even close to cold
It's kinda soon to fall in love again
But sometimes the best that you can do is just jump back in
I got me a fearless heart
Strong enough to get you through the scary part
It's been broken many times before
A fearless heart just comes back for more

Folks'll tell you that I'm just no good
But I wouldn't hurt you honey if I could
I can't promise this'll work out right
But it would kill me darlin' if we didn't even try

I admit I fall in love a lot
But I nearly always give it my best shot
I know you must think I'm the reckless kind
But I want a lady with a fearless heart just like mine

"Feel Alright"

"Feel Alright"



I was born my papa's son
A wanderin' eye and a smokin' gun
Now some of you would live through me
Lock me up and throw away the key
Or just find a place to hide away
Hope that I'll just go away
I feel alright - I feel alright tonight

I'll bring you precious contraband
And ancient tales from distant lands
Of conquerors and concubines and
Conjurers from darker times
Betrayal and conspiracy
Sacrilege and heresy

I got every thing you wont or need
Your darkest fear, your fondest dream
I ask you questions, tell you lies
Criticize and sympathize
Be careful what you wish for friend
Because I've been to hell and now I'm back again

"Flip, Flop And Fly"

"Flip, Flop And Fly"



I'm like a Mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump
I'm like a Mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump
I've got so many women I don't know which way to jump

I said flip flop and fly, I don't care if I die
I said flip flop and fly, I don't care if I die
I won't ever leave... don't ever say goodbye

"Francine"

"Francine"



Got a girl, her name's Francine
Finest thing you ever seen
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need

Well, Francine, oh Francine, why
Do you love me and make me cry?
How I love her, she's all that I want
How I need her, she's all that I need

If I ever caught her with Stevie P
I'd throw her back in the Penitentiary, now
And if I caught her with my mother's son
I'll call her daddy and get my gun

My Fancine just turned thirteen
She's my angelic teenage queen
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need

"Ft. Worth Blues"

"Ft. Worth Blues"



In Ft. Worth all the neon's burnin' bright
Pretty lights red and blue
But they'd shut down all the honky tonks tonight
And say a prayer or two
If they only knew

You used to say the highway was your home
But we both know that ain't true
It's just the only place a man can go
When he don't know where he's travelin' to

But Colorado's always clean and healin'
And Tennessee in Spring is green and cool
It never really was your kind of town
But you went around with the Ft. Worth Blues

Somewhere up beyond the great divide
Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few
A man can see his way clear to the light
Just hold on tight
That's all you gotta do

And they say Texas weather's always changin'
And one thing change'll bring is somethin' new
And Houston really ain't that bad a town
So you hang around with the Ft. Worth Blues

There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight
Silver light over green and blue
And every place I travel through, I find
Some kinda sign that you've been through

But Amsterdam was always good for grieving
And London never fails to leave me blue
Paris never was my kinda town
So I walked around with the Ft. Worth Blues

"Gamblin Blues"

"Gamblin Blues"



Papa don’t shoot no dice papa don’t play no cards
Papa don’t shoot no dice he don’t play no cards he say the money’s tight
He say the times are hard

Caught me comin’ in one night after the clock struck three
Caught me comin’ in last night after the clock struck three you been gamblin’
You’ll be the death of me

Gambled in Mexico gambled in New Orleans
Gambled in Mexico down in New Orleans played in every game
In every town between

But a gambler ain’t got no friends whenever his luck is down
Gambler aint got no friends when his luck is down but when he’s ridin high
They all hang around

"Go Amanda"

"Go Amanda"


Take your red dress, leave the hanger
Lose the sadness, use the anger
You might need it 'fore you get there

[Chorus:]
Oh, Amanda
You don't have to say goodbye
You just go Amanda
Ain't no way you didn't try
Wo, oh
All right

Tell your sister, tell your brother
Take a picture to your mother
You've been livin' undercover

[Chrous 3x]

Oh, Amanda
Oh, Amanda
