The war was over and the spirit was broken
The hills were smokin' as the men withdrew
We stood on the cliffs and watched the ships
Slowly sinking to their rendezvous

They signed a treaty and our homes were taken
Loved ones forsaken, they didn't give a damn
Try to raise a family, end up the enemy

Standin' by your window in pain
A pistol in your hand
And I beg you, dear Molly, girl
Try and understand your man the best you can

Across the great divide,
Just grab your hat, and take that ride
Get yourself a bride

I ain't got no home
No place to roam
I ain't got a home
No place to roam
I'm a lonely boy
I ain't got a home
I ain't got no sister
I ain't got a brother

I want to hear pitter patter
Climb up your ladder now
It's time for you to dream away
For what a big day you've been through
You've done all the things that you wanted to do
All la glory, I'm second story
Feel so tall like a prison wall
I'm lookin' for a star bright

Well, they blew up the Chicken Man in Philly last night
And they blew up his house, too
Down on the boardwalk they're ready for a fight
Gonna see what them racket boys can do

Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state
And the D.A. can't get no relief
Gonna be a rumble on the promenade

I know she's a tracker, any scarlet would back her
They say she's a chooser, but I just can't refuse her
She was just there, but then she can't be here no more
And as my mind unweaves, I feel the freeze down in my knees
But just before she leaves, she receives

She's been down in the dunes and she's dealt with the goons
Now she drinks from the bitter cup, I'm trying to get her to give it up

Crazy mama, where you been so long ?
Crazy mama, where you been so long ?
You've been hiding out, yes I know
Crazy mama, I need you so
Crazy mama, where you been so long ?

I been standing on the corner just looking for you, babe
Standing on the corner, looking for you, babe.

Crying heart blues
I'm crying because I have lost you
Blues I can't lose
I guess it's too late now to try

And I've tried to chose another to love but it's no use
Crying heart blues, now hopeless my crying heart flees

Take a silver dollar, put it in your pocket
Never let it slip away
Always be a man, not a boy gone astray, astray
When ya get half crazy from the August heat
Or on a frozen, rotted road
With no one to complain to about your achin' feet
You're gonna walk that endless highway
Walk that highway 'til you die

They say everything can be replaced
They say every distance is not near
So I remember every face
Of every man who put me here

I see my light come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now

It makes no diff'rence where I turn
I can't get over you and the flame still burns
It makes no diff'rence, night or day
The shadow never seems to fade away

And the sun don't shine anymore
And the rains fall down on my door

Corn in the fields.
Listen to the rice when the wind blows 'cross the water,
King Harvest has surely come.

I work for the union
'Cause she's so good to me;
And I'm bound to come out on top,
That's where I should be.

I'm gonna buy buy buy you a sheepskin coat

I'm gonna string red rubies 'round your throat

Gently down the stream I will row your boat

Ten years ago, on a cool dark night
There was someone killed 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene and they all did agree
That the man who ran looked a lot like me
The judge said, "son, what is your alibi?"
"If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die"
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life
I had been in the arms of my best friend's wife

(Chorus:)
Look Out, Cleveland, the storm is comin' through,
And it's runnin' right up on you.
Look out, Houston, There'll be thunder on the hill;
Bye-bye, baby, don't cha lie so still.

Was Wedn'sday evenin' when first we heard the word,
It did not come by train nor bird.

Boards on the window
Mail by the door
What would anybody leave so quickly for?
Ophelia
Hmm, where have you gone?

The old neighborhood
Just ain't the same

I left my home in Norfolk, Virginia
California on my mind
I straddled that Greyhound
And rode him into Raleigh
And on across Caroline

We stopped in Charlotte to bypass Rockhill
We never was a minute late

Rag, mama, rag, I can't believe it's true
Rag, mama, rag, what did you do?
I crawled up to the railroad track
Let the four nineteen scratch my back

Sag, mama, sag
What's come over you?
Rag, mama, rag, I'm a pulling out your gag

Hang around, willie boy,
Don't you raise the sails anymore.

It's for sure, I've spent my whole life at sea
And I'm pushin' age seventy three;
Now there's only one place that was meant for me:

Oh, to be home again,

Well, it's an ill wind that blows no good
And it's a sad one that won't love like I know it should
And oh, how lonesome you must be
And it's a shame if you don't share your love with me
It's a heartache when love is gone
But it's bad, even sad, later on
Oh, there's no one blinder than he who won't see
And it's a shame if you don't share your love with me

From outside the open window
How the faithful was gathered to sing
As the tears welled up inside me
Spilled down in a mournful rain

And all sands of time stood still
As the procession climbed the hill
And off in the distance, it's a mother running away

Have you ever been to the beach
Let's make a movie
Okay
Yeah

Have you ever been to the store
Yeah
Yeah

Out of this world, out of this mind

Out of this love for you

Out of this world, out of the blue

Out of this love for you

Virgil Caine is the name and I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell
It's a time I remember, oh so well

The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing

Now when the rumor comes to your town
It grows and grows, where it started, no one knows
Some of your neighbors will invite it right in
Maybe it's a lie
Even if it's a sin
They'll repeat the rumor again
Close your eyes, hang down your head
Until the fog blows away, let it blow away

There's a legend of a lady on the mountain
Lives alone beyond the Mecca plain
And with her hands she makes it through the winter
She never goes against the grain

To be someone is to be someone alone
To be someone is known as solitude
To learn to sing below the surface

Go out yonder, peace in the valley
Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in

Has anybody seen my lady
This living alone will drive me crazy
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in

Unfaithful servant, I hear you leaving soon in the morning
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

When your arms are empty, got nowhere to go
Come on out and catch the show
There'll be saints and sinners
You'll see losers and winners

All kinds of people you might want to know
Once you get it, you can't forget it
W.S. Walcott medicine show

When your arms are empty, got no where to go
Come on out and catch the show
There'll be saints and sinners you'll see losers and winners
All kinds of people you might want to know
Once you get it, you can't forget it
W.S. Walcott Medicine Show

You know he always holds it in a tent

I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' 'bout half past dead;
I just need some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fanny, and (and) (and) you can put the load right on me.

The many roads I've covered
The many trails I've burned
But when our paths did cross, love, whew
My whole world made a turn
And we got time to kill
What a thrill, June and July
We got all our love
Buckets of the tears that we cried

Don't send me no distant salutations
Or silly souvenirs from far away
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time a day

Over by the wildwood where young lovers go
Sparks flashing in the night, true colors show
If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam

When I get off of this mountain, you know where I want to go?
Straight down the Mississippi river, to the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake Charles, Louisiana, little Bessie, girl that I once knew
She told me just to come on by, if there's anything she could do

Refrain:

Up on Cripple Creek she sends me

Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
Ancient footprints are everywhere.
You can almost think that you're seein' double
On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room,
Where I've got me a date with Botticelli's niece.
She promised that she'd be right there with me
When I paint my masterpiece.

If you find me in a gloom, or catch me in a dream
Inside my lonely room, there is no in between
Whispering pines, rising of the tide
If only one star shines
That's just enough to get inside
I will wait until it all goes 'round
With you in sight, the lost are found
Foghorn through the night, calling out to sea
