Long Ride Home

Taylor Pie Long Ride Home Lyrics
1.Long Ride Home

Here's to the wind I was never gonna ride upon
Here's to the poetry I swore I'd never write
Here's to the lovers I was never ever gonna hold
In the dark and quiet places of a moonlit night

On the Long Ride Home
Sittin' all alone
Wishin' I could fill the empty corners of my soul.
On the long ride back
Through tunnels deep and black
Feelin' like a thief for all the pleasures that we stole
On the Long Ride Home.

Here's to my good friends who still remember me
Here's to the future always moving up so fast
I'll drink to the good and bad and all the lives I've had
Here's to my first mistake and here's to my last

On the Long Ride Home
Sittin' all alone
Wishin' I could fill the empty corners of my soul.
On the long ride back
Through tunnels deep and black
Feelin' like a thief for all the pleasures that we stole
On the Long Ride Home.

And old memories are a one way track,
And the road ahead is the one way back,

On the Long Ride Home
Sittin' all alone
Wishin' I could fill the empty corners of my soul.
On the long ride back
Through tunnels deep and black
Feelin' like a thief for all the pleasures that we stole
On the Long Ride Home.


2.Leave On The Light


3.Blue Dog Lounge

I'm gonna wrap some silk around my hips,
Paint some red on my fingertips;
Hang some shades from the windows of my soul.
I'm gonna throw a bone to my St. Bernard,
Put the cat out in the yard,
Crank my motor up, and let it roll.

Chorus: I'm goin' down to the Blue Dog Lounge
Where Celinda plays the bottle neck,
And makes that low down, scrapin' sound.
Those Fender bends travel up my spine,
And shake the knots all out
I come unwound, down at the Blue Dog Lounge.

They've got one spotlight and a corner stage
No room to dance, so everybody sways.
Cover charge is a dollar after nine.
And ol' Lightnin' Mose back behind the bar
Listens well, and he's real smart
And the whole place rocks 'til closin' time.

Chorus: I'm goin' down to the Blue Dog Lounge
Where Celinda plays the bottle neck,
And makes that low down, scrapin' sound.
Those Fender bends travel up my spine,
And shake the knots all out
I come unwound, down at the Blue Dog Lounge.
I'm goin' down, to the Blue Dog Lounge.

8.Star Packers

Star Packers

He said, Don't do it Baby,
I don't need you that way.
She said, I've got to go now honey,
Aw, the band is beginning to play.
My manager is front row,
My booking agent too,
Why don't you wait for me outside
And later I'll look for you. And he said,

Chorus:
Star Packers
Got to have big backers,
Wall streets and hotel sheets
Trail riders in limousines;
Star Packers
Have got it tattooed on the brain.
Caught up in the game
Of that big time fame.

He walked out front to find a spot
Where he could watch her sing.
And she strutted her stuff and showed her style
She gave the audience everything.
Well, the crowd started cheering
He tried to make his way back stage,
But there were strangers who blocked the door
To his songbird's cage. And he said,

Chorus:
Star Packers
Got to have big backers,
Wall streets and hotel sheets
Trail riders in limousines;
Star Packers
Have got it tattooed on the brain.
Caught up in the game
Of that big time fame.

Bridge:
He stood beneath the big marquee that held her name;
He waited 'til the lights went out, but she never came.
He knew she'd made her choice, they would not meet again,
And as he walked on home alone, he cried out in the wind...

Repeat Chorus.


9.Double Dose Of You

Your love is my addiction,
Something I think I can't live without.
I feel it when I need you,
I'd die without you I have no doubt.
My hands commence to shakin'
If you take too long before you call
I know you need your freedom,
I can't get enough of you that's all, that's all, that's all.

I need a Double Dose of You
I'm gettin' dizzy, turning blue.
And the only sure fire remedy I know will pull me through
Is some tender lovin' therapy and a Double Dose of You hoo hoo..

You fill me with a fire
Burning in my heart out of control.
I'm captured by desire,
You have made a prisoner of my soul.
I think about you always
Every waking moment of my day.
I lie away without you
Clinging to the pillow where I lay, I lay, I lay.

I need a Double Dose of You
I'm gettin' dizzy, turning blue.
And the only sure fire remedy I know will pull me through
Is some tender lovin' therapy and a Double Dose of You hoo hoo.

And when the moon's full and the wind blows
I can feel you under my skin.
And I wonder if I'll make it
'Til I'm with you again

How can I go on living
Waiting for the moment when we touch
I'm starting to go crazy
I think maybe I love you too much, too much, too much.

I need a Double Dose of You
I'm gettin' dizzy, turning blue.
And the only sure fire remedy I know will pull me through
Is some tender lovin' therapy and a Double Dose of You hoo hoo.


10.A Gypsy

I'm a wanderer, heart and soul,
Wish I could ride the wind;
And sail away on a golden moon
Down a road that has no end.
'Cause the way my days go by these days,
I've got an urge to roam.
And I do believe it won't be long
Until the highway is my home.

I wanna be A Gypsy
I wanna travel in a caravan
I wanna dark haired blue-eyed man,
I wanna be A Gypsy.

Oh, a castle you can call your own
May be your hearts desire
But my heart's on the open road
Beside a gypsy fire.

I wanna be A Gypsy
I wanna travel in a caravan
I wanna dark haired, handsome blue-eyed man,
I wanna be A Gypsy.

I wanna be A Gypsy
I wanna feel those wheels go 'round
I wanna dance to A Gypsy sound
I wanna be A Gypsy
I wanna be A Gypsy.
