1.Now That I Know
Now that I know
The way it goes
You've gotta pay back every penny that you owe
Twelve years old
In your mama's clothes
Shut the blinds and lock up every door
And if you hear
Someone's coming near
Just close your eyes and make them disappear now
Years away
Finds me here today
On my own and always on my way now
So I send my friends
Gifts from where i've been
Something for the hand that never there to lend
Better keep those eyes
Climbing paradise
And don't pretend you won't reach it in the end now
Dearest dear
I know you've been here
Why'd you run, tell me why'd you disappear
Now that you're not
Here with me
'Seems to be the only time I can see you clearly
I may not know
How to treat or give you what you need
But I am a gentle man who says what he means now
And now I sing
Upon my knees
And praise the kindness of a gentle breeze
I see it swell
Like a story in me to tell
Told years away and past my day of dying
So you raise them up
To have and always have
They're unaware of share or give a hand to help some
Oh you give them away
But they'll come back to you someday
Wanna know why nobody was ever there to help them
And not it ain't fair
And if God forbid you care
It's enough to get you in a whole lot of trouble
Awww realize
It ain't wise to idealize
Or put your life in the hands of any struggle
Never renounce or ever claim to be
And never buy that freedom just ain't free now
Ella sang
Sifting in the sand
Like a hymn within to help us understand
Heaven awaits
We're making our last stand
Glory bound and sparrow in our hand
2.Santa Maria Da Feira
Pensando cada dia, cada hora
Pensando en ti
Caminando, mi cesta llena de moras
Son para ti
Temprano por la tarde y por la noche
Sueño de ti
Lalalala
Comiendo pera
En Santa María de la Feira
Que placer ir
La gente buena
Solo goza nunca hay pena
Pa' que sufrir
Jugando en el mar, en la arena
Viviendo así
Lalalala
Ventana blanca
Ay que venga la mañana
Ay que venga otra vez
Esperando
Asi es como yo paso mi tiempo
Esperando a Inaniel
Y rezando por su calor, por su aliento
Sobre mi piel
Te digo todo aqui va bien
Conmigo de no dormir
Amigo, te suplico, te lo pido
Que me ayudes a mi, a mi
Buscando
Con mi ancla en la marea
Nadando en ti
Yo voy andando
Óyeme, te estoy llamando
Te amo a ti
Por el valle me encontré un rio escondido
Me ahogué ahí
Me recuerdo, hacía calor pero tenia frio
Me iba a morir
Bianca
Ay Paloma, ay Angelina
Por fin te vi
Por fin te vi
Por fin te vi
Thinking every day, every hour
Thinking of you
Walking, my basket full of berries
They are for you
Early, in the afternoon and evening
I dream about you
Lalalala
Eating some pear
In Santa maría de la feira
What a pleasure to go
The good people
They just enjoy, theres no shame
What to suffer？
Playing in the beach, in the sand
Living like this
Lalalala
White window
Oh, please morning come
Oh, please come again
Waiting
This is how I spend my time
Waiting for Inaniel
And praying for his warmth, for his breath
On my skin
I tell you here everything's been ok
With me - no sleeping
Friend, I ask you, I beg you
To help me, me
Seeking
With my anchor on the tide
Swiming in you
I go by
Hear me, I'm calling
I love you
In the valley I found a hidden river
I remember, It was hot but I was cold
I was gonna die
Bianca
Oh Paloma, Oh Angelina
Finally I saw you
Finally I saw you
Finally I saw you
3.Heard somebody say
I heard somebody say
That the war ended today
But everyone knows it's goin' still
On mother lands and mother seas
Here's what we believe
It's simple
We don't want to kill
I heard somebody say

4.Long-Haired Child
A mind winters day, it's cold, and I know for certain
When I go outside my head will start hurtin
It's a winter's day and I know for certain
When I go outside my head will start hurtin
So I'll wrap it up in materials
To keep my head from getting cold

I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
And I go outside and mingle in the snow
My head looks like a globe
Ain't no hair on it at all
Do I buy a wig
Should I grow my beard
And comb it upwards
And around my ears
Well I can't wait for the kids to come
No I can't wait for the kids to come
Say 'hey babe you ain't going to no barber shop!'
'Cause I want yeah I want I know for certain
I want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
Baby that's for sure, baby that's for sure
And when the snow it hits my temple
I wanna rush home and put on the kettle now
And warm my little brain and bald head
I'm too cold to know if I'm alive or dead
But when my baby slips out my mama's womb
When my baby slips out my mama's womb
We're gonna enter a new life
Enter a new life, that's for sure
You're gonna enter your self back through your baby's front door
Now if you want that child to be a long-haired child
You're gonna make that baby be a long-haired child that's for
sure
Baby, baby, that's for sure
Shoo bop, shoo bop
Shoo bop, shoo bop
5.Lazy Butterfly
Lazy butterfly napping on me
Dreaming of the sky and rolli pollies
Wake up, wake up, clouds are coming, clouds are coming
Wake up, wake up, rains are falling, rains are falling
Colors in my eye are staring at me
Anchor at my side the sweetest silver
Pleasure, pleasure, don't forget her, don't forget her
Lover, love her, I won't forget her, I won't forget her
Seashell fingernail scratching at me
Brown eyed lullaby singing at me
Come on, come on, try and catch me, try and catch me
Come on, come on, try and catch me, try and catch me
Cardinal cloudsmoke I know they feel it
Rising from an oak because I feel it
He burn, he burn, mesmerizing, mesmerizing
He burn, he burn, hypnotizing, hypnotizing
Hopeful wise old worm in his temple
Digging in the dirt and staying simple
Married, married, to the dessert to the dessert
Climbing, climbing, up a ladder up a ladder
New born hummingbird in a meadow
Suckling at the flow of its shadow
See the day that fish will fist you, fish will fist you!
It's never too late, I'd like to think so, I'd like to think so
Knife stuck in her paw someone help her
Gather sticks and straw and build her shelter
Don't you, don't you, let her die yet, let her die yet
Don't let, don't let, let her die yet, let her die yet
6.Quedate luna
Yo no he tomado
Pero me voy a tomar un traguito ahora
Y sé que lo que más espero
Lo más que sé me enamora
Tres, siete, diez
Ya no me ves
Pero si tal vez
Te digo tu nombre
Ya sabrás quién es
Soy el perro a tus pies
Que te muerde la costilla
Y las estrellas brillan y la luna se sienta en su silla
¿Qué tomas lunita y porqué estas tan amarilla？
Bueno, ya estoy cansada y mis hijas ya me dicen viejita
Mi pelo esta seco y mi piel ya no brilla
Pero el mundo es tuyo, pero esta noche eres mía
Así que
Quédate, quédate luna
Quédate, quédate luna
Quédate, quédate luna
Quédate, quédate luna
Mira a Dios en el aire, mira a Dios en el mar
Yo te doy toda mi vida para oírte cantar
Oye a Dios en el viento, prueba a Dios en la miel
Dios vive afuera y adentro también
Así que
Dímelo, dímelo luna
Dímelo, dímelo luna
Dímelo, dímelo luna
Dímelo, dímelo luna
Dímelo, dímelo luna
Dímelo, dímelo luna
Dímelo, dímelo luna

Lo más que sé me enamora
I haven't drunk
But I'll take a drink now
And I know that the longest I wait
The more I know I fall in love with
Three, Seven Ten
You can't see me
But perhaps
If I say your name
You'll know who it is
I'm the dog at your feet
That bites your ribs
And the stars shine and the moon sits on its chair
What are you drinking moon and why are you so yellow？
Well, I'm tired and my daughters they call me old
My hair is dry and my skin has no glow
But the world is yours, but tonight you are mine
So
Stay, stay moon
Stay, stay moon
Stay, stay moon
Stay, stay moon
Look at god in the air, look at god in the sea
I give you my life just to hear you sing
Hear god in the wind, taste god in the honey
God lives outside and inside also
So

Tell me, tell me moon
Tell me, tell me moon
Tell me, tell me moon
Tell me, tell me moon

7.Queen Bee
Well I do like a certain girl
She moves like a dancing dream
I saw everything I've seen
And I meant everything I mean
Oh Queen Bee you're always happy and free
Oh Queen Bee land by me, by me
She's kissed everyone I've kissed
She's missed everyone I've missed
And her guess is always as good as mine
And I'm blessed, she treats me so damn kind
She's grown every seed I've grown
She's known everything I've known
And our dreams they always coincide
And our bows always firmly tied
And oh Queen Bee, I'm always happy to see you
Oh Queen Bee, sting me, sting me

They think I know shit
But that's just it
I'm a child
Well I need you to tell me what to wear
Yeah I need you to help and comb my hair
Yeah I need you to help tie my shoes
Yeah I need you to come and keep me amused
From my cave to my grave
I guess I'll always be a child
Well I need you to help me reach the door
And I need you to walk me to the store
And I need you to please explain the war
And I need you to heal me when I'm sore
You can tell by my smile
That I'm a child
And I need you to sit me on your lap
And I need you to make me take my nap
Could you first pull out a book and
Read me some of that
Cause I need you to make me take my nap
And I need you to recognize my friends
Cause they're there even though you don't see them
They got their own share of plate and a seat
You know I won't touch my food unless they eat
From the roof to the floor I'll crawl around some more
I'm a child
And I need you to help me blow my nose
And I need you to help me count my toes
And I need you to help me put on my clothes
And I need you to hide it when it shows
From being my daddy's sperm to being packed in an urn
I'm a child
And when I steal you gotta smack me 'til I cry
Don't you stop 'til the tears run dry
See I was born thinking under the sky
Didn't belong to a couple of old white guys
From sucking on my mother's breast
To when they lay my tomb to rest
I'm a child yeah
Well I'm a little child
Well I'm a little child
I guess I'm always be
A little child
9.Some People Ride the Wave
Some people ride the wave of generosity

Some people ride a cat for riding a cat's sake
Me I ride this cat cause its claws have got my eyes
I'll get 'em back in a few more tries
Oh I'll get 'em back in a few more tries
Some people ride the books that tenderize their names
Some people ride the books that bastardize our claims
Me I write the book that's sifting in the sand
Aw, some day I'll understand
Aw, some day I'll understand
Some people write the songs that stay inside our souls
Some people write the songs that really ain't songs at all
Me I write the song that ends right when it starts
They'll split before they part
Oh they'll split before they part
10.The Beatles
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are the only Beatles in the world
Do you feel like dancing are you getting hungry
Do you wanna be my girl
'Riquitiquitiqui' canta el troubador
Como una flor tan gorda que no tiene sabor
Qué rica es la vida y qué rico es el amor
No mates al toro mata al toreador
Yo sí oigo a Donovan
Yo sí oigo a Marc Bolan
Yo sí oigo a Ben Chasny
A Six Organs me gusta a mí
11.Dragonflys
I don't owe me any money

12.Cripple crow
When they come from the over the mountain
Yeah we'll run we'll run right around them
We've got no guns no we don't have any weapons
Just our cornmeal and our children
The dust drowns
The dark clouds
But not us
But not us
While we pay for mistakes with no meaning
All your gifts and all your peace is deceiving
And still our pain dissolves with believing
That peace comes, their peace comes
That peace comes, their peace comes
Now that our bones lay buried below us
Just like stones pressed into the earth
Well we ain't known by no one before us
And we begin with this one little birth
That grows on, that grows on
That grows on, that moves on
Cripple crow say something for our grieving
Where do we go once we start leaving
Well close that wound
Or else keep on bleeding
And change your tune
It's got no meaning

Well how's about tellin' a story
One that's really about somebody
What they saw and what they did
How they died and how they lived
But by the time I found a name I moved onto another game
Called write a song about toes and spines, it's god damn
Now I can't think of any story lines
But you know I'd love to try and sing about a person, place, or
thing
Mount Sinnai and the Wolfman, Katmandu, and Honest Abe
Something happens up in Tucson and then it happens again in
Maine
San Francisco, sweet thing, ladeedada da..na na!

(Instrumental)
18.I Love That Man
I love that man when he's on stage
I hear bad things in a good way
And how I thank you all the time
So don't refuse this thank you of mine
And I arrive at your feet in peace
And I spend my time as I please
And I can't stop light from shining in
My goddamn breath keeps breathing
And at your end and your leaving
May you have no sin worth grieving
And I hope that I can someday ask
Something new to you at last
Now you talk, I'll pour
And our nearness grows
And when I'm bored, I'll let you know
This black ink cross that's on our palms
Let's keep them on
And never wash them off
It ain't for God, it's just for us
Once my friend but never again
And once we're dead, we never end
We never end, we never end, we never end
19.Luna de margarita
Luna de margarita es
Como tu luz,
Como tu voz y
Como tu amor
Luna de margarita es
Como tu luz,
Como tu voz y
Como tu amor
Frente a ti
El mar de las Antillas
Junto a mí
Tu caricia sencilla
Para vivir, para gozar, para soñar contigo
Para vivir, para gozar, para soñar contigo
Daisy moon is
Like your light
Like your voice and
Like your love
Daisy moon is
Like your light
Like your voice and
Like your love
In front of you
The Antillas' sea
Beside me
Your simple caress
For living, for enjoying, for dreaming of you
For living, for enjoying, for dreaming of you
20.Korean Dogwood
Red oak sugar and Korean dogwood and Korean dogwood
Vibes turn to rubbed rum
Lit by mission moonlight
Kangas on that hillside
You are my life
And you baffle me some
Like vanilla's maple
Inca cornflower
You're my baby's blue eyes
And when you're gowndissolves in a prayer
You'll hear a sound
That rings true and fair
Black King lightning
The dawn of orange blossoms and orange blossoms
My friend Keegan
Drawing endless love songs, endless love songs
Calm breath, sweet being, show me what you're seeing
Show me what you're seeing
And though right and loud and proud
Every little word
It still ain't heard
Strange prayers looming
Over all our brothers, over all our brothers
Prison life served
But Navajo Gospel
Is a rope thrown helpful
But for sure all that we've made
Will be swallowed by the Earth
For it's got no worth
21.Little boys
Life is tough and love is rough
For the man who just can't ever seem to get enough
The days go by and the women come and go
So many that you decide to get rid of your front door
So you don't have to hear them all disappear
You just sit and you wait
Staring at your empty plate
And you can say I'm a lonely sailor
Rockin' gently on my dreams
'Cause I can have it all, but I don't want it all
And it ain't like I've never ever ever tried
I've just never been fully satisfied
But just a tie a little shoelace
And to share a sleeping bag
And I look ahead to the days
When I can look back at all the fun that I've had
But still, but still, but still..
I see so many little boys I wanna marry
I see plenty little kids I've yet to have
Even when the moon goes out
Even when the sea dried out
I still see so many little boys I wanna marry
I see plenty little kids I've yet to have now
Even when the sea's all freeze
And everything's lying underneath
Even when the sun ceases to shine
I won't care, I'll still have on my mind
So many little boys I wanna marry yeah yeah
I see plenty little kids I've yet to have
And in the shower I get my dreaming done
I hold my breath and I wait for the day to come
Oh little Billy, little Timmy, little Jimmy, you're the one
I may not look it, but I swear my heart is young for so many..
Little boys I wanna marry
I see plenty little kids I've yet to have you know you know
I've got many little boys I wanna marry, yeah you know
I've got many little kids I've yet to have
Oh oh, Yeah yeah
Little boys I wanna marry, yeah you know
I've got plenty little kids I've yet to have now, yeah you know
I've got so many, so many little boys I wanna marry now, marry
now
So many...
22.Ancor
Don't the flowers at your feet smell sweet
Well they sure smell sweet to me
And don't the moon way up high shine bright
Well it sure shines bright to me
And don't the water on your lips feel good
Well it sure feels good to me
And don't the lips on your lips feel good
Well they sure feel good to me...
