"Tulsa County"

"Tulsa County"


My nights have been lonely since I've been in Tulsa country
And I really don't know what I'm gonna do.
I just might take a trip somewhere along the southern border
'cause I know I've gotta get away from you.

I don't know - just where I'll go
I believe I'll ride it down to Mexico
Down to Mexico.

Got your note in Charlston, said you needed my assistance
But when I got there you didn't need me then.
I may not be a wise man but I know this life you're leading
You learned your tricks from lots of other men.

"Tunnel Of Love"

"Tunnel Of Love"


I ran to tunnel of love
You were no longer sparking clean
Well my boat got stuck in the fog
Here I used to go swim in the stream
The gates of the tunnel came closed
Whoa my ghost was standing there by the door
So I splashed back out to the street
Nothing was there anymore
The water was floating with graves
Where cotton candy should be

And get this
And girls in black robes were dancing around
And touching their fingers to me
Oh I blackened my windows with soot
And sandbagged the doors real good
And didn't emerge from hiding
Until the fallout was through
The water was floating with graves
Where cotton candy should be

And get this
And girls in black robes were dancing around
And touching their fingers to me
And touching their fingers to me
And touching their fingers to me
And touching their fingers to me

"Turn! Turn! Turn!"

"Turn! Turn! Turn!"


To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late!

"Wait And See"

"Wait And See"


Watch out what you say, don't get in my way
I'm gonna get that girl, wait and see
I saw her today, she came by my way
I'm gonna win her love just for me

And together we'll go walkin'
Through the evening still be talkin'
She's the kind of girl you never hardly see

Have you seen her eyes, do you realize
How much love like that can mean to me?
I know she knows me, today after tea
The way she held her head when she walked by

And before the night is over
I think I'm gonna love her
And if it last forever I don't care

Say now she is mine, I told you all the time
How could I let a girl like that go by

And before the night is over
I think I'm gonna love her
And if it last forever I don't care

"Wasn't Born To Follow"

"Wasn't Born To Follow"


Oh I'd rather go and journey where the diamond crest is flowing and
Run across the valley beneath the sacred mountain and
Wander through the forest
Where the the trees have leaves of prisms and break the light in colors
That no one knows the names of

And when it's time I'll go and wait beside a legendary fountain
Till I see your form reflected in it's clear and jewelled waters
And if you think I'm ready
You may lead me to the chasm where the rivers of our vision
Flow into one another

I will want to die beneath the white cascading waters
She may beg, she may plead, she may argue with her logic
And then she'll know the things I learned
That really have no value in the end she will surely know
I wasn't born to follow

"Way Beyond The Sun"

"Way Beyond The Sun"


I'm going back baby way behind the sun
I'm going back baby way behind the sun
I'm gonna find me some honey and I just might bring you some
Well I'm going back baby don't you want to go
I'm going back baby don't you want to go
Goodbye to trouble never come back no more

You're gonna go out and find one of those fancy men
You better go out and find one of those fancy men
He'll roll you over in the clover and never come back again
Well I'm going back baby way behind the sun
Yes I'm going back baby way behind the sun
I'm gonna find me some honey and I just might bring you some

"We'll Meet Again"

"We'll Meet Again"


We'll meet again don't know where don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

Keep smiling true just like you always do
Till the blue skies make the dark clouds fade away
Some sunny day hey hey hey [3x]

We'll meet again don't know where don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

We'll meet again don't know where don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

Keep smiling true just like you always do
Till the blue skies make the dark clouds fade away
Some sunny day hey hey hey [3x]

"Well Come Back Home"

"Well Come Back Home"


Well come back home, well come back home
Well come back home, well come back home
If you wanna tell someone about it tell me, tell me
If you gotta tell someone about it tell me, tell me
I think that I'm afraid to hear it
I know you're afraid to say yes
Tell me anyway you can
Ah but don't tell your momma
I won't tell your papa
Well come back home, well come back home
Well come back home, well come back home
If you wanna tell someone about it tell me, tell me
If you gotta tell someone about it tell me, tell me
I know that I'm afraid to hear it
And I think that you're afraid to say it
Tell me how they kill a man
Ah but don't tell your momma
I won't tell papa
Well come back home, well come back home

"What's Happening?!?!"

"What's Happening?!?!"


I don't know who you think you are
I don't know what you're doing here

I don't know what's going on here
I don't know how it's supposed to be

I, I don't have the vaguest notion
Whose it is, what it's all for

I don't know, I'm not crying
Laughin' mostly as you can see

"Why"

"Why"


Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby
Keep sayin' no to her not even maybe
Why? Why?

You say there's a limit there, she can't go past that
She don't believe you, she don't think that's where it's at
Why? Why?

You say she can't change that, it's the way you've always done it
She don't care about that, she thinks you've just begun it
Why? Why?

You say it's a dead old world, dull and unforgiving
I don't know where you live, but you're not living
Why? Why?

Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby
Keep sayin' no to her not even maybe
Why? Why?
