1.Too Many Dirty Dishes
Lyricist：J Newton
There's too many dirty dishes
In the sink for just us two
I say there's too many dirty dishes
Baby in the sink for just us two
Well, you got me wonderin' baby
Who's makin' dirty dishes with you？
I go to work in the mornin'
I come right home every night
When I leave the sink is empty
And when I come back home
My baby got 'em stacked up out of sight
There's too many dirty dishes
Baby in the sink for just us two
Well, you got me wonderin'
Got me wonderin' baby
Who's making dirty dishes with you？
I cleaned your dirty dishes
How much more am I supposed to take？
When I left I had fruit loops for breakfast
Now, there's a bone from a T-bone steak, y'all
And there's too many dirty dishes
Baby in the sink for just us two
Well, you got me wonderin'
You got me wonderin' baby
Who's makin' dirty dishes with you？
Well you got me wonderin'
You got me wonderin' baby
Who's makin' dirty dishes with you？

Goodbye Joe, I got to go, me oh, my oh

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we're gonna have big fun on the bayou

Padle away to see my old friend, Woodrow
Well, Jambalaya, craw fish pie, fillet gumbo
'Coz tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh

'Cause I ain't taking you out, no
And I don't care how beautiful you look
I'll read you like an open book
Now you're right on time by the door at nine
Searching for your goldmine
Got the dude who's bubble and crude
When you're in a spending mood
You can stand and pout
'Cause I ain't taking you out
And I don't care how beautiful you look
I'll read you like an open book
I spotted you in Reno down at the Casino
Giving all you got away to any guy who pays
So don't even look at me
You can stand and pout
'Cause I ain't taking you out
And I don't care how beautiful you look
I'll read you like an open book
Well, you can stand and pout
'Cause I ain't taking you out

And you didn't want my plums
You just, you wham bam with your axe, baby
And you didn't leave me none
Oh, baby, don't you remember me？
'Cause I'm sure that you're the one who
Who chopped down my cherry tree
Now answer me, babe
And don't just tell a lie

And just leave 'em out to dry？
Oh, baby, don't you remember me？

Who chopped down my cherry tree

Keeps me warm in my bed at night

Just come right home, honey, when you're through
You been gone so long
You been gone too long
You been gone so long
It feels like you're never comin' home

All for the love of the blues I play
But the only thing that keeps me sane
Is drivin' down the Bayou in the pourin' rain, y'all
I been gone too long

I remember that lonesome night
When stars all were shining bright
I was alone, alone until
Until I saw that moon coming over the hill
Now how could I ever have the right
To see alone such a beautiful sight
You know that night falls dark and still
Except for that moon coming over the hill
Now it looks so close up next to the clouds
Well, you know it's up there, just checking me out
It just rises higher on into the night
And it lets me know everything's alright
So don't you worry about where I been
I'm just checkin' on one of my old friends

When I see the moon coming over the hill
I say, every night I get my fill
Seeing you and the moon coming over the hill

I had a dream baby, I thought it was real
I woke up in love, now you're all I think of
Every day I'm wastin' time
I'm wonderin' how, to make you mine
I'm just wishin' it could be, you feel the same for me
Since that day I've been lost
I jumped on a alligator, I thought it was a horse
I took one hell of a ride, down on bayou side
If I could take you to the fais-do-do
We could dance on end, all across the floor
And we could do it for a while, Louisiana style
I wanna take you to the fais-do-do
Where we can dance baby, until we can't stand no more
I wanna do it for a while, Louisiana style

But all I can see is a heart of stone
Now you must play me
For some kind of fool
I gave you all I had
And you used me like a tool
Oh, that's alright
I'll make myself a happy home
I can keep on walking tall
'Cause I know your by the phone
With a heart of stone
If you want to be cold as ice
I'm telling you, baby
You better think about it twice
'Cause that's alright
You may find yourself all alone
Your gonna meet somebody just like you
'Cause that's so easy to do
With a heart of stone
I'll be strong as I can be, baby
'Cause all I see
Is a heart of stone

In the whole wide world, there is only one
And I'm the one, I'm the one

And I'm the one, I'm the one

The one they call the Seventh Son

You're just gonna leave
And take away all the little things that I need
Now wait just one minute
It's my life, babe and I want you in it
You are, baby, you are what I live for
Now sometimes I get bitter
But ain't that just like a man？
And sometimes I don't give all that I can
But your sweetness, baby, is what I crave
And this thing we've got, I'd like to save
You are, baby, you are what I live for
I know that everything
Can't always go as planned
But baby, baby, baby, I'm holdin' out my hand
So take a hold and come on in
The cold outside got me shiverin'
You are, baby, you, you are what I live for now

No one in sight
I spent the whole night drinking some wine
I was thinking about you all of the time
There's some thoughts are coming through my mind
I know it's only a matter of time
'Til you come walking down the bank
Of the bayou, too much to drink
I spent the whole night drinking some wine
I was thinking about you, baby, all of the time
There's some thoughts are running through my mind

One of these days
I'm sure we'll meet again
I didn't want
To see this come to an end
If I was only still a child
It might be easier to let go somehow

But you left me too soon
Oh and it's got me in tears
I gotta say goodbye from now
But I'm sure we'll meet again somehow

â½Son, don't rush to be a manâ
But I went ahead on
And I think I'm drownin' on dry land
That's a better way to go now, yeah
You know, my mother told me the story
'Bout that little dog who couldn't see too well
He was crossin' a railroad track one day
When a train cut off a part of his tail
He turned around but never looked up
Just a peep over the rail
And she said he lost his whole head

A cloud of dirt just came over me
And I think I'm drownin' on dry land, yeah

It's cloudy in the mornin'
Rainy in the afternoon
Cloudy in the mornin'
Rain in the afternoon
If you don't like this weather
Think you better pack your things and move
But if you're runnin' from it, brother
The only road that I can see
But if you're runnin' from it, brother
The only road that I can see
Is the road that leads to nowhere
And nowhere is a fool like me
Rain keep a fallin'
Fallin' 'round my window pane
Rain keep a fallin'
Fallin' 'round my window pane
Ain't never seen so much rainy weather
Guess I'll never see the sun again
Save those dimes and nickels
Save 'em for a rainy day
Save your dimes and nickels, baby
Save 'em all for a rainy day
It ain't gonna keep the rains from fallin'
Ah but at least you know you've paid your way
