"33rd Of August"

"33rd Of August"



Today there's no salvation band's packed up and gone
I'm left standing with my penny in my hand
Down at railroad station a blind man sings his song
I think he sees things I don't understand.

It's the 33rd of August
And I'm finally touching down
Eight days from Sunday
Finds me Saturday bound.

I stumbled through the darkness tumble to my knees
A thousand voices screaming in my brain
Wound up in a squad car busted down for vacancy
Outside my cell it's sure as hell looks just like rain.

It's the 33rd of August
And I'm finally touching down
Eight days from Sunday
Finds me Saturday bound.

I've put my dangerous feelings under lock and chain
Killed my violent nature with a smile
Let the demons danced and sang their songs within my fevered brain
Not all my God like thoughts were defiled.

It's the 33rd of August
And I'm finally touching down
Eight days from Sunday
Finds me Saturday bound..

"A Bad Day"

"A Bad Day"



I guess it all started when I woke up this morning
Everything seemed okay
'Til I let my pet snake get loose in the kitchen
Now I've been in trouble all day

I got some paint on the wall, a pretty orange color
And a little on the carpet and floor
I covered it up with mom's coat from the closet
That she says she can't wear anymore

I've had a bad, bad day
Not like I thought it would be
I've had a bad,bad day
It seems like everyone's pickin' on me

I put some sand in my grandpa's tobacco
And he frowned at me all day
Then I hid his pipe 'cause it smells when he smokes it
He shouldn't smoke anyway

So between mom's coat and my grandpa's tobacco
Life can be rough on a kid
They've almost worn out the seat of my britches
It don't hurt much now,but it did

I've had a bad, bad day
Not like I thought it would be
I've had a bad,bad day
It seems like everyone's pickin' on me

I've had a bad, bad day
Not like I thought it would be
I've had a bad,bad day
It seems like everyone's pickin' on me

"A Couple More Years"

"A Couple More Years"



I've got a couple more years on you baby that's all
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
That's not that I'm wiser it's just that I've spent
More time with my back to the wall.

And I've picked up a couple more years on you baby that's all
I've walked a couple more roads than you baby that's all
And I'm tired of running while you're only learning to crawl
And you're going somewhere but I've been to somewhere
And found it was nowhere at all.

And I've picked up a couple more years on you baby that's all.
Saying goodbye girl don't ever come easy at all
But you've got to fly cause you're hearin' them young eagles call
Someday when you're older you'll smile at a man strong and tall
And say I've got a couple more years on you baby that's all.

You'll say I've got a couple more years on you baby that's all
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
That's not that I'm wiser it's just that I've spent
More time with my back to the wall...

"A Legend In My Time"

"A Legend In My Time"


If heartaches brought fame in love's crazy game
I'd be a legend a living legend in my time
If they gave gold statues for tears and regrets
I'd be a legend a living legend in my time.

But they don't give awards and there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend a living in my time.

[Instrumental]

But they don't give awards and there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim everyone would know my name

"A Long Time Ago"

"A Long Time Ago"



I don't look the way the average cowboy singer looks
I'll admit I've taken things I never should of took
You can read a different story in a lot of different books
But even then you won't really know
How it was a long time ago

Women have been my trouble since I found out they weren't men
In spite of that I stopped and took a wife now and then
They built their fences high but they couldn't hold me in
I was born with a fire down below
And I learned to fly a long time ago

Don't ask me about the years I spent out in the rain
About the ones I spent in love or the ones I spent insane
Don't ask me who I gave my seat to on that plane
I think you already know
I told you that a long time ago

Me and ol' Willie, lordy we've been sold and bought
I guess y'all heard about some kind of system that we fought
We ain't the only outlaws just the only ones they caught
They tried to run us off but Willie's slow
I quit running a long time ago

"A Lot Of Good"

"A Lot Of Good"



As I watched the tail lights disappear
Suddenly it got real lonely here
I know the words I could have said
To make her turn around
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now

I could have started with i'm sorry
And really meant it from the heart
The rest would have been easy
Together in the dark

We could have found that old time feeling
That we lost somewhere somehow
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now

Still thinking about the things I could have said
And looking at her picture by the bed
I realized just what I've lost as I pulled the covers down
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now

I could have told her I was sorry
And really meant it from the heart
The rest would have been easy
Together in the dark

We could have found that old time feeling
That we lost somewhere somehow
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now
A lot of good it's gonna do me now

"A Love Song (I Can't Sing Anymore)"

"A Love Song (I Can't Sing Anymore)"



I know some things must change
Nothin' stays the same
Life dont' always go along with how we feel
But no matter how it goes
There's one thing I know
Once you've loved someone you always will

When it comes to me and you
There's one thing that I won't do
I won't try to hate some one I've loved before
You'll remain a part of me
Like a song I used to sing
A love song I can't sing anymore
You're a love song I can't sing anymore

You'll remain a part of me
Like a song I used to sing
A love song I can't sing anymore
You're a love song I can't sing anymore

"Abilene"

"Abilene"



Abilene, Abilene,
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene.

I sit alone most every night
Watch those trains pull out of sight
Don't I wish they were carrying me
Back to Abilene, my Abilene.

Abilene, Abilene,
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene.

Crowded city, ain't nothing free
Nothing in this old town for me
Wish to the Lord that I could be
In Abilene, sweet Abilene.

Abilene, Abilene,
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene...

"Ain't No God In Mexico"

"Ain't No God In Mexico"



Down the road a ways I've heard said
A new day's coming on
Where the women folks are friendly
And the law leaves you alone.

I'll believe it when I see it
And I haven't seen it yet
Don't mind me just keep on talking
I'm just looking for my hat.

There ain't no God in Mexico
Ain't no way to understand
How that border crossing feeling
Makes a fool out of a man.

If I'd never felt the sunshine
Hell, I would not curse the rain
If my feet could fit a railroad track
I guess I'd been a train.

Me and Louise Higgins Botham
Used to chase across the yard
Back in 1947 that's when
More than times were hard.

Well, pity me I didn't find
The line in time like a fool
In front of God and everybody
I politely blew my cool.

Ain't no God in Mexico
Ain't no comfort in the kin
When you're down in Madamoris
Gettin' busted by the man.

If I'd never felt the sunshine
Hell, I would not curse the rain
If I hadn't been railroaded
Well I guess I'd been a train...
