Down By The River

Well, we been livin' high on the hog since the tax check came and went
We don't know how to save no money but we damn sure get it spent
We got just enough for a 12 pack and a couple more gallons of fuel,
and if I can't spend no money tonight, I'm still gonna spend it with you
Let's go down by the river tonight,
Let's go down by the river tonight,
Look at the stars above and make sweet love,
it's goin' down by the river tonight.
Well, you came here to go fishin' and I came here to get saved.
I'm gonna stick my toes in a river that flows and rolls all my sins away.
We'll have ourselves communion with sandwiches and homemade wine,
and I might not make it to church tomorrow but tonight I feel divine.
Let's go down by the river tonight,
Let's go down by the river tonight,
Look at the stars above and make sweet love,
it's goin' down by the river tonight.

Black Snake

Mama they said it's a felony
to stand up for the water that we drink.
So, I put my body in the way
of the machine that was digging up those graves.
Well, they dug up the place where my
grandmama lays, now they
wanna put me in jail
All these uneven ways keep my
people as slaves. Let me say,
your black snake will fail.
Well, the old ones say there are
two different ways, go with the
gold or go with the green.
It's gonna take a change in our
ways and all our
prayers for the water to be clean.
Oh, the water.

Times are changing. My head spins. I don't know where you end and I begin. I don't know what changed, I don't know what remains, but I think you do. Do you? Do you know who this is? Seems to me to be so obvious that between you and me is so wide and so deep, you can't even see me, can you?
Seasons and years, passions and fears, dry spell and rain, pleasure and pain...
The road lays out before me. You know I'm gonna go. I'm never gonna be the girl you used to know. If I can't find my way back, I don't know what I'll do. But, if the wind blows in Kansas, I'll still be loving you.
Times have changed, and here I stand. Still no telling just where I'll land. All I know my friend, is that love don't end or go away, but I couldn't stay. Do you know who I am? Seems to me that you don't understand that between you and me is so wide and so deep, you can't even hear me can you?

No Rain
04:09

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watching the puddles gather rain
And all I can do
Is just pour some tea for two
And speak my point of view
But it's not sane
It's not sane
I just want someone to say to me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yeah, yeah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today, hey
So stay with me and I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
Escape
Escape
Escape
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
You don't like my point of view and I'm insane
It's not sane
It's not sane
I just want someone to say to me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yeah, yeah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today, hey
So stay with me and I'll have it made
I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
And I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
Oh no, no
You know we're really gonna
Really gonna have it made
You know we'll have it made

Nothin' to do just sittin at home
the boys are fishin' and the kids are gone
so we call the girls up and grab the keys,
a box of wine and we head out east
me and my girls we'll be just fine
a bag of grass and a box of wine
windows down, let the wind blow,
travelin' down our favorite road
well the car we drive don't go real fast,
but that's okay cause it don't use gas
bluegrass music on the radio,
we use a 4/50 for our air control
me and my girls we'll be just fine
a bag of grass and a box of wine
windows down, let the wind blow,
travelin' down our favorite road
well it's been a little while since we all hung out
so we got lots to talk about
boys and men, babies and food,
who's gettin'' married and who left who
me and my girls we'll be just fine
a bag of grass and a box of wine
windows down, let the wind blow,
travelin' down our favorite road
me and my girls we'll be just fine
a bag of grass and a box of wine
windows down, let the wind blow,
travelin' down our favorite road

We're all gonna die someday, Lord
We're all gonna die someday
Well mama's on pills, daddy's over the hill
But we're all gonna die someday

It hurts down here 'cause we're runnin' out of beer
But we're all gonna die someday
We're all gonna die someday, Lord
We're all gonna die someday
Well mama's on pills, daddy's over the hill
But we're all gonna die someday
Well, all of my friends are stoned, Lord
All of my friends are stoned
Well, Janie got stoned 'cause she couldn't get boned
But we're all gonna die someday
We're all gonna die someday, Lord
We're all gonna die someday
Well mama's on pills, daddy's over the hill
But we're all gonna die someday
Well, they can all kiss my ass, Lord
They can all kiss my ass
If they want to kiss my ass well they better do it fast
'Cause we're all gonna die someday
Yeah, we're all gonna die someday, Lord
We're all gonna die someday
Well mama's on pills, daddy's over the hill
But we're all gonna die someday
I said, we're all gonna die someday Lord
We're all gonna die someday
Well mama's on pills, daddy's over the hill
But we're all gonna die someday

Mother

You and I, we are the same. I'm the place from whence you came. Gave you bones, I gave you blood. Turned your face toward the sun.
Stay with me a little while. Sow your seeds, drink deep. You'll remember who you are.
You and I we are the same. Dust to dust, from whence you came. Everything returns to one. Turn your face toward the sun.
Stay with me.

Never Know
04:19
|

Take time to be around you, out from inside, some time to be without your worry and pride. Give till your pocket's empty. Take in the light. All that we'll ever need is yours as well as mine.
You never know who you might love. You never know who might love you.
Fire in a cloud of darkness. What will you see? Choosing to know the beauty, change what will be. Solid foundations cannot be washed away. Waves of the storm will bring a healing rain.

White Rabbit

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice
When she was just small
When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know
When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head
Feed your head
