1.Tower Of Song
Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on
I'm just paying my rent every day
Oh in the Tower of Song
I said to Hank Williams： how lonely does it get？
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet
But I hear him coughing all night long
A hundred floors above me
In the Tower of Song
I was born like this, I had no choice
I was born with the gift of a golden voice
And twenty-seven angels from the Great Beyond
They tied me to this table right here
In the Tower of Song
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry, baby, doesn't look like me at all
I'm standing by the window where the light is strong
Ah they don't let a woman kill you
Not in the Tower of Song
Now you can say that I've grown bitter but of this you may be
sure
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor
And there's a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong
You see, you hear these funny voices
In the Tower of Song
I see you standing on the other side
I don't know how the river got so wide
I loved you baby, way back when
And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
We'll never have to lose it again
Now I bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back
There moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
But you'll be hearing from me baby, long after I'm gone
I'll be speaking to you sweetly
From a window in the Tower of Song
Yeah my friends are gone and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on
I'm just paying my rent every day
Oh in the Tower of Song
2.I Want To Come Home
For so long, I was out in the cold
And I tought myself to believe every story I told
It was fun hanging on to the moon
Heading into the sun
But it's been to long
Now I wanna come home
I came so close to the edge of defeat
But I made my way in the shade
Keepin' out of the heat
It was fun shooting out of the stars
Looking into the sun
But it's been to long
Now I wanna come home
Home
Where there's nothing but sweet surrender
To the memories from afar
Home
To the place where the truth lies waiting
We remember who we are
For too long,I was out on my own
Everyday I spent trying to prove I can make it alone
It was fun hanging on to the moon
Heading into the sun
But it's been to long
Now I wanna come home
Home
To the place where the truth lies waiting
We remember who we are
For so long, I was out in the cold
But I tought myself to believe every story I told
It was fun hanging on to the moon
Heading into the sun
But it's been to long
I wanna come home
But it's been to long
I wanna come home
But it's been to long
I wanna come home
3.Hit Or Miss
I was sitting down, all by myself
Listening to everybody, everybody
He ain't be like everybody else
Oh you see, I gotta be me
And there ain't nobody just like this
I gotta be me
Baby hit or miss
But then I looked at you just sitting there
All by yourself
You listening to everybody, everybody
He ain't be like everybody else
Ohh, you see
You gotta believe
And there ain't nobody just like this
You gotta believe
Oh, baby hit or miss
I was sitting down, all by myself
I was listening to everybody, everybody
He ain't be like everybody else
Oh you see, I gotta be me
And there ain't nobody just like this
I got to be me
Oh, baby hit or miss
No there ain't nobody just like this
I got to be me
Oh, baby hit or miss
I gotta be me
Baby hit or miss
You've got to believe
Baby hit or miss
You've got to believe
In yourself
Don't listen to anybody else
You got to believe
You got to believe
You got to believe
In yourself
Don't listen to nobody but yourself
Yeah
Yourself
Be yourself
Be yourself
Like nobody else
Gotta believe
4.Love And Blessings
Love and blessings, simple kindness
Fell like rain on thirsty lions
Fields and gardens, long abandoned
Came to life in dust and sand
Lovers lives, sweet as honey
Touched as if old love was new
Bankers pockets overflow with gold and money
Prophecies of wealth came true
Ain't no song like an 'ol song jol
Ain't no song like an 'ol song jolly
Ain't no time like good times jol
Ain't no time like the good times jolly
If the summer kept a secret
It was heaven's lack of rain
Golden days and amber sunsets
Let the scientists complain
Ain't no word on, in an image
Something called me from my sleep
Love and blessings, simple kindness
Ours to hold, but not to keep
Ain't no song like an 'ol song jol
Ain't no song like an 'ol song jolly
Ain't no time like good times jol
Ain't no time like the good time jolly
Everywhere you look
Everywhere you go
Everybody's looking forward
I can't get enough of that
I can't get enough of that
I can't get enough of that
Everybody's looking forward
Love and blessings, simple kindness
Ours to hold, but not to keep
5.Soul Of A Man
Won't somebody tell me
What is the soul of a man
Well I've travelled to different countries
I've travelled to the foreign land
I found nobody could tell me
Tell me what is the soul of a man
I want somebody to tell me
Answer me if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Tell me what is the soul of a man
Well I saw a crowd talking
I just came up in time
Teaching the lawyer and the doctor
A man ain't nothing but his mind
Well I want somebody to tell me
Answer me if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Tell me what is the soul of a man
Yes what is the soul of a man
Well I read the Bible often
I tried to read it right
As far as I can understand
It's nothing but a burning light
God, I want somebody to tell me
Why don't you answer me if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Tell me what is the soul of a man
I want somebody to tell me
Answer me if you can
I want somebody to tell me
Tell me what is the soul of a man
Oh, what is the soul of a man
6.Bad As Me
You're the head on the spear
You're the nail on the cross
You're the fly in my beer
You're the key that got lost
You're the letter from Jesus on the bathroom wall
You're the mother superior in only a bra
You're the same
You're the same
You're the same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
I'm the hat on the bed
I'm the coffee instead
The fish or cut bait
The detective up late
I'm the blood on the floor
And the thunder and the roar
The boat that won't sink
I just won't slip a wink
You're the same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
Same kind of bad as me
Same kind of bad as me
We're good you say
But that's good enough for me
Hahaa
You're the wreath that caught fire
You're the preach to the choir
You bite down on the sheet
But your teeth have been wired
You the skid in the rain
You're trying to shift
You're grinding the gears
You're trying to shift
You're the same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
Same kind of bad
The same kind of bad as me
They told me you were no good
But I know you'll take care of all my needs
Because you're the same kind of bad as me
I'm the mattress in the back
I'm the old gunny sack
I'm the one with the gun
Most likely to run
I'm the car in the weeds
If you cut me I'll bleed
You're the same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad
The same kind of bad
The same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad as me
The same kind of bad as me
You're the same kind of bad
The same kind of bad
The same kind of bad as me
7.Dimming Of The Day
This old house is falling down round mice
I'm drowning in a river of my tears
When all my will is gone, you can hear me pray
I need you at the dimming of the day
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide
You know just where I keep my bed aside
The days have come to keep us far apart
A broken promise for a broken heart
Now all the bonny birds, have flown away
I need you at the dimming of the day
Come tonight you're only what I want
Come tonight you can be my comfort doll
I see you on the street in company
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me
I'm living for the night, we can steal away
I need you at the dimming of the day
I need you at the dimming of the day
8.Traveling Shoes
One, two
Oh One two three oh
Death went out to the sinner's house
Come and go with me
The sinner cried out I ain't ready to go
I ain't got no travelling shoes
Got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
The sinner cried out I ain't ready to go
I ain't got no travelling shoes
And the death went down to the gambler's house
Come and go with me
Gambler cried out I'm not ready to go
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
And then death went down to the preacher's house
Come and go with me
The preacher cried out 'Lord, I'm ready to go'
I got my travelling shoes
I got my travelling shoes
The preacher cried out 'Lord, I'm ready to go'
I got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
I got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
I got my travelling shoes
I got my travelling shoes
9.All Blues Hail Mary
From the mountain comes a soul
And the stones grow up like trees
From the mountain comes a soul
And the stones grow up like trees
All blues hail Mary with her roses
But you're their masterpiece
Cut away each blade of grass
Our feet cannot tramp down
The limb of every hanging tree
That time's left hanging round
All blues sing that love is light not glory
And a story, not a crown
I won't be death's sad trophy now
While I still lie awake
I won't be death's sad trophy now
While I still lie awake
All the blues sing of love and death and you
As chances yet to take
How dark this bit of light so late
That falls across your breast
How dark this bit of light so late
That falls across your breast
All blues and the grace by God and the
I will have to
I will have to learn the rest
10.Charlie Darwin
Set the sails I feel the winds a'stirring
Towards the bright horizon set the way
Cast your reckless dreams upon our Mayflower
Haven from the world and her decay
And who could heed the words of Charlie Darwin
Fighting for a system built to fail
Spooning water from the broken vessels
As far as I can see there is no land
Oh my God, the water's all around us
Oh my God, it's all around
Who could heed the words of Charlie Darwin
The lords of war just profit from decay
And trade the children's promise for the jingle
The way we trade our hard earned time for pay
Oh my God, the water's cold and shapeless
Oh my God, it's all around
Oh my God, life is cold and formless
Oh my God, it's all around
11.Just Dropped In
I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag, but then...
I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin' out as I was a-crawlin' in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Someone painted 'April Fool' in big black letters on a dead end
sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was
in
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was
in
