- Black Cadillac
It was a black Cadillac drove you away
Everybody's talkin'
But they don't have much to say
There was a black sky of rain
None of it fell
One of us gets to go to heaven
One has to stay here in hell
- I Wonder
Every time I'm near you
My heart jumps all about
My mind can't figure out what to do
But I've been disillusioned
Enough by love turned blue
Your love may be true but I wonder
- Miss The Mississippi And You
I'm growing tired on the big city lights
Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights
In all my dreams I am roaming once more
Back to my home on the old river shore
I am sad and weary, far away from home
Miss the Mississippi and you
Days are dark and dreary
- My Baby Thinks He's A Train
Rosanne Cash – My Baby Thinks He's A Train Lyrics
It's three a.m. in the morning
The train whistle is blowin'
It sounds like some lonesome song got in my soul
In my soul
My baby spent the bank and he won't be back no more
My baby thinks he's a train
- My Least Favorite Life
This is my least favorite life
The one where you fly and I don't
Piss holds a million deceits
And lifetime goes up in smoke
This is my least favorite you
Who floats far above earth and stone
The night that I twist on the rack
- Particle And Wave
Light is particle and wave
Our histories written large upon the page
The star in middle age
The love that fades to black
Once revealed, won't be taken back
Light nothing can escape
The ignorance we once forgave
- Runaway Train
"Runaway Train"
I'm worried about you
I'm worried about me
The curves around midnight
Aren't easy to see
Flashing red warnings
Unseen in the rain
- Seven Year Ache

You act like you were just born tonight
Am Am
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
- The Sunken Lands
Five cans of paint in the empty fields
The dust reveals
The children cry, the work never ends
There's not a single friend
Who will hold her hand in the sunken lands?
- The Unfaithful Servant
Unfaithful servant, I hear you leavin' soon in the mornin'
What did you do to the lady, that she's gonna have to send you away?
Unfaithful servant, you don't have to say you're sorry,
If you done it just for the spite, or did ya do it just for the glory?
Like a stranger you turned your back,
Left your keys and gone to pack.
Bear in mind who's to blame, and all the shame;
- The Wheel
How long was I alseep?
When did we plan to meet?
Have you been waiting long for me?
When did the sky turn black?
Do you still want me back?
I'll pick it all up piece by piece.
And the wheel goes round and round.
- Western Wall
It's the right time you know I feel fine tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
It's the right place I've got my new face tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
I'm in the right mood I've got my new shoes tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
I've got a new dress I couldn't care less tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
[Chorus]
Somebody told you I was so cold and mean (who was that talking)
Somebody wants you and don't want me in between (she better start walkin')
- Will you remember Me
Will you remember me, like the circled stones,
On the ancient hills where you walk alone?
Where the wind can speak my secret name,
Like the air you breathe, will you remember me?
Will you remember me, as your airplane flies?
Over foreign seas an' breaking skies.
Like a perfect child you can't bear to leave.
