- All Across This Land
Who who, who who
[Verse 1:]
Welcome to my sun y’all it just in time
So much to learn so many ways you can shine
Cause love is forever but forever ain’t long.
It runs like a dirt road and it ends like a song. Yeah
- American Goldwing
we ride these waters dark and dusty
so ride my people ride
with your muskets aimed at the falling rain
cuz the city ain't no place to hide
oh my sister's in the boat behind
baby, curse the crime
my lovers mind is made, is made
and I think it's time to get on board
- Astronaut
Now if you're gunna play your games with me
Like the leaf in the top of a tree
You better watch your step when you're comin back down
From the city on out to the sea
And if your brothers come after me
With their horses so wild and so free
I'll be waitin at the gate in a terrible state
With the man who holds the key
- Black River Killer
It was just a little while past the Sunset Strip
They found the girl's body in an open pit
Her mouth was sewn shut, but her eyes were still wide
Gazing through the fog to the other side
They booked me on a whim and threw me deep in jail
With no bail, sitting silent on a rusty pail
Just gazing at the marks on the opposite wall
- Don't Be A Stranger
I'm weary from this river
That flows far but never nearer to my home
And the wars upon the shores
Keep the single girls indoors
And so all my love songs fall on wasted ears
I grow tired of this highway
It runs far but never my way don't you know
- Evening Star
You're a broken-hearted party girl
Your skirt's on fire, your hair's uncurled
Your dancing days are at an end
Yeah, you've got no one to call your friend
All you've got left is a silhouette,
An empty bed, and a cheap Corvette
You're a long way from your sweet sixteen
You need some stonewashed jeans
- Ever Loved Once
Verse 1:
It was just as I was leaving
Throw some change up on the bomb
She aught my eye through the swinging door
She was standing out by my car
I said I thought you moved to the city girl
No one never did find the time I've been wasting away, at my sister's place
Just North of the county line
- Fletcher
Oh mama i've been talkin' to those western stars
They give me comfort at night right lyin' in the back of the car
An i can see your face in the place that i go when i'm there
Me an jimmy an the boys runnin' dark up in the mountain air yeah
Got a couple more runs till the sun's comin' up in the east
Ole fletcher's in the car drinkin' whiskey from a jar through his teeth
Jimmy ain't back but his tracks lead up into the trees
- Furr
Yeah, when I was only seventeen
I could hear the angels whispering
So I drove into the woods
And wandered aimlessly about
Until I heard my mother shouting through the fog
It turned out to be the howling of a dog
Or a wolf, to be exact
The sound sent shivers down my back
- God And Suicide
i can live with god and with suicide
the same thing holds if i close my eyes
it's a truth so pure it can kill you dead
a taste of heaven mixed with hell inside of my head
if a three-four cord can ignite a flame
and a girl like you can forget my name
then i'm that far gone in this crooked grave
- Love The Way You Walk Away
I"ve been feelin' in the way
Kinda underfoot on a Saturday
Sun it don't mean to hurt I guess
But the bright lights are harsh when your trying to rest
I know youve been wokring some overtime
In your granddads kitchen trying to make a dime
The old joke stands, cause it's true I guess
That when you find what your looking for you want it less
- Man of Constant Sorrow
из фильма «O Brother, Where Art Thou?»
И только горе день за днём…
Я человек печали вечной,
Мой каждый день достоин слёз .
С тобой простился я, Кентукки,
Мой дом родной, где в муках рос.
- Sci-Fi Kid
Sugars got a space ship running on empty rifts
moving lovers undercover just like I said
in a phantom world spinning out of time
we just a sci-fi kids making dirty rimes
I never really saw myself as a the running kind
were just a digital brat with a insect mind
were just a sci-fi kid like you
- Shine On
It ain't no love like a love that's gone
The love's in spite of the loveless kind
A locked up band with an endless shine
I've seen it myself walking through the pines
It ain't no love like a love that's gone
The love's in spite of the loveless kind
A locked up band with an endless shine
- Shoulder Full of You
Got a shoulder full of you
Pushing like the blacksmith's sorrow
Lashes full of dew
I miss you
Deer tracks on an unmade bed
Somebody said they saw you
- Sleepytime In The Western World
your eyelids are made of lead
you can't keep them up
'cause it's sleepytime
and that's no crime in the western world
'cause when the sun goes down
you're bound to follow through
sleeping through the afternoon
i just can't seem to leave my room
- Thirsty Man
I've been driving all night
On a road to nowhere
With the devils convoy, black smoke upon my tracks
Girl, I hardly knew you
But I could never fool you
You was always sitting still
While the world raced to its grave
- Valley of Death
I know what it means to get knocked down drunk,
I was lying in a bush by the coal,
where the river runs deep
& the demons don't sleep
& the water's obscured by the smoke.
Well I drug myself to the river's edge
& I drank like a dog on the sand.
It burned my tongue,
- War Is Placebo
Still baby stay in cars
tell me where you are
if this war is placebo yeah I know,
Stories in the stars
clutching handlebars
if you started believing
if love is an empty road
