"Sugar Cane"

"Sugar Cane"



Riding high up on Black Horn Ridge
Crossing over the Tallahatchie Bridge
Pour me a trigger nail of sparkling kind
This road is gnarly and it's weather lined

Fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
My sugar cane
I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain

I saw the badlands in the mirror light
I saw my lover run as she took flight
If I could get home just on time
Before some sucker tries to take what's mine

I said fall, it's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
My sugar cane
I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
She's my sugar cane

I do righteous now outside the law
I've got something worth fighting for
Give me a kiss now one last time
I'll send you spinning like a capital crime
I cut you slack with your fancy walk
I give you space with your fancy talk
What I won't do is give up to you
I got something special that you never knew

Fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
Sugar cane
Fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
Oh sugar cane

I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
My sugar cane
I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
Never again

Kiss away my pain

"Swallow"

"Swallow"


If sometimes I could make you happy
If sometimes you're feeling small
The truth is mine just to do what I wanna do
This love is mine just to say what I wanna say

Out on this lonely road
Cold coffee and a cigarette
Making a long distance call
I'm on some losing bet

We're not going down
We're not gonna take it baby
We're not going down
Anyway you want it
We're not going down
We just got to be together now
And if you're feeling hollow
Hey, hey now swallow

And if your love's been lost and forsaken
If you've been left passed up and broken too
The choice is yours just to be where you wanna be
And the truth is yours just to see what you wanna see

Out on this lonely road
Where the black top never ends
We're racing up the hills
But we're losing it on the bends

We're not going down
We're not gonna take it baby
We're not going down
Anyway you want it
We're not going down
We just got to be together now
And if you're feeling hollow
Hey, hey now swallow

[Solo]

We're not going down
We've gotta be there together babe
We're not going down
Anyway you want it now
We're not going down
We've gotta be there
We've just gotta be together babe
And just your crazy ways
Oh there's not an ordinary day
Oh no

"Sympathy"

"Sympathy"


So you've seen the sunrise on the Nile
Solved the mystery of the Mona Lisa's smile
You proclaim your innocence
What you're saying
Makes no sense to me at all

So you help the needy and the sick
Heard confessions from a lunatic
My eyes are growing dim
Ghost shadows closing in
Around me now

And there ain't no sympathy at all
Just a sea of angry faces
Staring at me
There ain't no sympathy at all
I gotta find someone
To make me happy

So you've scattered roses at Versailles
Wiped a teardrop from an old man's eye
Seeing you in such distress
I'm afraid I must confess
That boys don't cry

And there ain't no sympathy at all
Just a sea of angry faces
Staring at me
There ain't no sympathy at all
I gotta find someone
To make me happy

[Solo]

And there ain't no sympathy at all
Just a sea of angry faces
Staring at me
There ain't no sympathy at all
I gotta find someone,
Gotta find someone,
Gotta find someone

"Take It Or Leave It"

"Take It Or Leave It"


I'm on my way home
To see my little angel
Trying to put the pieces back together
Well it's been so long
I'm feeling like a stranger
But they tell me a good thing lasts forever

[1] Who's to say we can't talk it over
'cause in time I know
That we'll work it out
Give it one more chance
Before it's too late
Baby until the last goodbye

Take it or leave it or leave me alone
Baby one (more) little sad reply
Take it or leave it or leave me alone
As time passed

By a thousand miles of ocean
I put you out of sight
And out of mind girl
And before too long promises were broken
Seemed no matter how we tried

[Repeat 1]

 

[fox69]

"Terri"

"Terri"


Terri everytime we talk we just disagree
Every chance we had is passing by
The simple things you say all drift away into the night
So don't let me know what I can't see

[1] Terri is it over again
Lost in love
Everybody laughing at me
With eyes like a child
You smile when you hit the tide
Holding me captive
For the world to see

Every now and then I'd see that wild look in your eyes
It's in all the long shots that we tried
We used to hold on tight, run for the night
How far we'd go we couldn't see

[1 Repeat]

Every day goes by we get further and further away
Conversations end with nothing much to say
Maybe we've made a mistake it's too late we'll never know
We can't change it girl 'cause I just have to go

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[1 Repeat]

On these lonely nights I reach out for your love
This empty room feels cold and bare
Then I'll try the phone and swallow my pride
It's no good we've tried and tried

[1 Repeat]

"The Chase"

"The Chase"


Imagination's running wild
I'm a man, not a child
Can't seem to make something of my life
Here I go again, down, down, down
So you want to be someone
But my love, you just don't know

I'm chasing, but some man's making
It's just bringing me down, no no no
I'm chasing, some man's making
It's just bringing me down

In conversations, about who you are
The way you talk, boy, you're the star
Can't seem to make something of my life
Here I go again, down, down, down,
So you want to be someone
But my love, it just don't run

I'm chasing, some man's making
It's just bringing me down, no no no
I'm chasing, some man's making
It's just bringing me down
I'm chasing, some man's making
It's just bringing me down,
I'm chasing, but some man's making
It's just bringing me down

[instrumental]

I'm chasing, but some man's making
It's just bringing me down, no no no
I'm chasing, but some man's making
It's just bringing me down down down down
I'm chasing, but some man's making
It's just bringing me down,
I'm chasing, but some man's making
It's just bringing me down down down

"The Fear"

"The Fear"



It was something cool
Something bright
I had the fear in the middle of the night
Tore a page from a cooking book
It had a map to a Moroccan souk

Shame on me
Shame on you
You turned a lovely shade of blue

I got the fear now
I got the fear now
A bottle of wine and Turkish cigarettes
Your silky stockings and fine fishnets
I got the fear now
Gimme the fear now

A comet has landed on my door
I see the sheriff wagging like a whore
Shame on us
A shame to bear
We'll be locked up
Put rightin care

I got the fear now
Gimme the fear now

Liars, thieves and politicans
Kama Sutra in 20 positions
Gimme the fear now
I got the fear now

I have a crooked house
And a crooked bed
Mystical people in my head
I got the fear now
I got the fear now
Gimme the fear now
Gimme a beer now

I got the fear now
Gimme a beer now

I got the anger chased by rage
Actors up there right on stage
I am going downtown to get me some thrills
If I can make it through life's chills and spills
Gimme a beer now

"The Killing Kind"

"The Killing Kind"



Tell a story about love
What lovers find
A story of possession
Oh, the killing kind
He went out guns a-blazing
His shirt ragged in the wind
I watched him delicately frazzled
His lights, they slowly dimmed

Not cold at all, it's my daemon talking
Feeling so bold, it's my sugar talking

This love is fatal, but oh so sublime
A love that's killing, this love is the killing kind
I have been taken, I have been blind
This love is killing, this love is the killing kind

Sticky situation
I've been here before
Butter up that greasy wheel
And go singing like a whore
You wanna hear about the honey?
You wanna hear about the game?
When you look into her darkness
Baby's got a sense of pain

Not cold at all, it's my daemon talking
Feeling so bold, it's my sugar talking

This love is fatal, but oh so sublime
A love that's killing, this love is the killing kind
I have been taken, I have been blind
This love is killing, this love is the killing kind

"The Last Stone Rider"

"The Last Stone Rider"



Call my brothers
I will be there
Call my mother
To offer up a prayer

I hear the ricochet
Shot gun blast
We are the five
Before the mast

Down in the shallows
Like cool sugar cane
I want for nothing
Nothing to gain
She has the power
Of a mystical rod
She has a cross
We were on fire for God

I'm a last stone rider
And I wear this thorny crown
I have an English style of speaking
And I sleep where these boots come down

So love is called this dying breed
Estelle fills my every need
She's the last man standing
Solid as a rock
Dust and ashes
Breeding stock
I have a power
That is rare
I'll twirl my fingers
Round your honey hair

Round 'em up
Cut 'em down
I got my feet
On the ground
Hey, hey, alright

Fire me up
Come on
Fire me up now
Fire me up

I'm a last stone rider
And I wear this thorny crown
I have an English style of speaking
And I sleep where these boots come down

"The Only Ones"

"The Only Ones"


Can you feel me, I'm so close I'm sure
Anytime if you would call be right to your door
Is it over, lost this time for good
I never knew that I could be so misunderstood

[1] We are the only ones, left alone with this heart of stone
We are the only ones with nothin' left but fools alone

Life's so empty, there's nothin' left for me
Oh I wish you were back, baby you and me
Last September, it's like yesterday
You slipped through my hands, there's nothing more to say

[1 Repeat]

I can feel the magic in your heart tonight
I thought we had something oh so right
Baby tell me do you still care
'Cause this ain't no game of kiss and dare
