Goes to show, you don't ever know Watch each card you play and play it slow Wait until that deal come round Don't you let that deal go down, no, no. I've been gambling here abouts For ten good solid years If I told you all that went down It would burn off both your ears. Since you poured the wine for me And tightened up my shoes I hate to leave you sitting there Composing lonesome blues.

In the timbers of Fennario the wolves are running round note 1 The winter was so hard and cold, froze ten feet 'neath the ground. I sat down to supper, 'twas a bottle of red whiskey I said my prayers and went to bed, that's the last they saw of me.

When I awoke, the dire wolf, six hundred pounds of sin Was grinning at my window, all I said was "Come on in". The wolf came in, I got my cards, we sat down for a game I cut my deck to the queen of spades but the cards were all the same note 2. In the back-wash of Fennario, the black and bloody mire The dire wolf collects his due while the boys sing round the fire.

Sitting in Mangrove Valley chasing light beams Everything wanders from baby to Z Baby baby pretty young on Tuesday Old like a rum drinking demon at tea Baby, baby, tell me what's the matter Why, why tell me, what's your why now Tell me why will you never come home Tell me what's your reason if you got a good one Everywhere I go the people all know Everyone's doin' that rag Everywhere I go the people all know Everyone's doin' that rag.

Take my line, go fishing for a Tuesday Maybe take my supper, eat it down by the sea Gave my baby twenty, forty good reasons Couldn't find any better ones in the morning at three Rain gonna come but the rain gonna go Stepping off sharply from the rank and file Awful cold and dark like a dungeon Maybe get a little bit darker 'fore the day Hipsters, tripsters, real cool chicks, sir 'Cause everyone's doin' that rag Hipsters, tripsters, real cool chicks, sir 'Cause everyone's doin' that rag.

You needn't gild the lily, offer jewels to the sunset No one is watching or standing in your shoes Wash your lonely feet in the river in the morning Everything promised is delivered to you Don't neglect to pick up what your share is All the winter birds are winging home now Hey, love, go and take a look around you Nothing out there you haven't seen before now But you can wade in the water and never get wet If you keep on doin' that rag Wade in the water and never get wet If you keep on doin' that rag.

One eyed jacks and the deuces are wild And the aces are crawling up and down your sleeve Come back here, baby Louise And tell me the name of the game that you play Is it all fall down; is it all go under Is it all fall down; is it all go under [etc]. When I was just a little young boy Papa said "Son, you'll never get far I'll tell you the reason, if you want to know 'Cause child of mine, there isn't really very far to go" note 1. Well baby, baby wants a gold diamond ring Wants it more than almost any old thing Well when I get those jelly roll blues Why, I'd go and get anything in this world for you.

Down to the jewelry store packing a gun Says "wrap it up, I think I'll take this one" "A thousand dollars, please" the jewelry man said Dupree, he said "I'll pay this one to you off in lead".

Well you know son, you just can't figure First thing you know, you're gonna pull that trigger And it's no wonder your reason goes bad Jelly roll will drive you stone mad. Judge said "Son, it's gonna cost you some time" Dupree said "Judge, you know that crossed my mind" Judge said "[In] fact it's gonna cost you your life" Dupree, he said "Judge, you know that seems to me to be about right".

Well, baby, baby's gonna lose her sweet man Dupree came out with a losing hand Baby's gonna weep it up for a while Then go out and find another sweet man gonna treat her with style. Judge said "Son, I know your baby well But that's a secret that I can't never tell" Dupree said "Judge, well, it's well understood And you got to admit that sweet, sweet jelly's so good".

Same old story, and I know it's been told Some like jelly jelly, some like gold Many a man's done a terrible thing Just to get baby a shiny diamond ring. Promises made in the dark dissolve by light of day Easy answers Ain't no saying what will be, it's always been that way Only thing I know for sure, someone got to pay Easy answers Ain't no easy answers, is what I got to say.

Easy answers I don't wanna hear Ain't nobody cares C'mon let's go I don't wanna know I don't wanna know I don't wanna know I don't wanna know I don't wanna know. Love is an easy word to say, roll's right off the tongue Easy answers Seems to crop up like a weed, in every song that's sung It always sounds so easy, the way it falls upon the ear Easy answers Plenty easy answers now, listen to me here Easy answersv.

I've been balling a shiny black steel jack-hammer Been chipping up rocks for the great highway I'll live five years if I take my time Balling that jack and drinking my wine. I been chipping them rocks from dawn till doom While my rider hide my bottle in the other room note 1 Doctor say better stop balling that jack If I live five years I'm gonna bust my back, yes I will note 2.

Easy wind, cross the Bayou today note 3 'Cause there's a whole lotta women, Mama Out in red on the streets today note 4 And the river keeps a talking But you never heard a word it said. Gotta find a woman be good to me Won't hide my liquor try, to serve me tea 'Cause I'm a stone jack baller and my heart is true And I'll give everything that I got to you, yes I will. Right outside this lazy summer home note 1 You ain't got time to call your soul a critic, no Right outside the lazy gate Of winter's summer home Wondering where the nuthatch winter's Wings a mile long Just carried the bird away.

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own. There comes a redeemer and he slowly, too, fades away And there follows his wagon behind him that's loaded with clay And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom and decay And night comes so quiet, its close on the heels of the day.

Sometimes we live no particular way but our own And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own. Long distance runner, what you standing there for? Fire, fire on the mountain Fire, fire on the mountain Fire, fire on the mountain Fire, fire on the mountain.

Almost ablaze, still you don't feel the heat note 4 It takes all you got just to stay on the beat You say it's a living, we all gotta eat But you're here alone, there's no one to compete If mercy's in business, I wish it for you More than just ashes when your dreams come true.

Long distance runner, what you holding out for note 5 Caught in slow motion in a dash to the door The flame from your stage has now spread to the floor You gave all you had, why you want to give more? Carve your name, carve your name in ice and wind Search for where, search for where the rivers end Or where the rivers start Do everything that's in you, you feel to be your part But never give your love my friend unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart.

Dare to leap, leap from ledges high and wide Learn to speak, speak with wisdom like a child Directly to the heart Crown yourself the king of clowns or stand way back apart But never give your love my friend unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart. Shun a friend, shun a brother and a friend Never look, never look around the bend Or check the weather chart Sign the Mona Lisa with a spray can, call it art But never give your love my friend unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart.

A foolish heart will call on you to toss your dreams away Then turn around and blame you for the way you went astray A foolish heart will cost you sleep and often make you curse A selfish heart is trouble, but a foolish heart is worse.

Bite the hand, bite the hand that bakes your bread Dare to leap, where the angels fear to tread Till you are torn apart Stoke the fires of paradise with coals from hell to start But never give you love my friend unto a foolish heart Unto a foolish heart.

In another time's forgotten space Your eyes looked from your mother's face note a Wildflower seed on the sand and stone May the four winds blow you safely home.

I'll tell you where the four winds dwell note b In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell It can ring, turn night to day It can ring like fire when you lose your way. God save the child who rings that bell note c It may have one good ring, baby, you can't tell note d One watch by night, one watch by day If you get confused, listen to the music play. Some come to laugh their past away Some come to make it just one more day Whichever way your pleasure tends If you plant ice, you're gonna harvest wind.

In Franklin's tower the four winds sleep note e Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep Wildflower seed in the sand and wind May the four winds blow you home again. In another time's forgotten space Your eyes looked through your mother's face Wildflower seed on the sand and stone May the four winds blow you safely home. Roll away, the dew Roll away, roll away the dew Roll away, roll away the dew Roll away, roll away the dew. I'll tell you where the four winds dwell In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell It can ring, turn night to day It can ring like fire when you lose your way.

God save the child who rings that bell I may have one good ring baby, you can't tell One watch by night, one watch by day If you get confused just listen to the music play. I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds note a Didn't get to sleep that night till the morning came around. Set out running but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep Tonight.

I ran into the devil babe, he loaned me twenty bills I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills. I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there note b He took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air.

Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night The first one's named sweet Anne Marie and she's my heart's delight Second one is prison baby, sheriff's on my trail note c And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail.

Got a wife in Chino babe, and one in Cherokee First one says she's got my child but it don't look like me. Moses come riding up on a quasar note 1 His spurs was a-jingling, the door was ajar His buckle was silver, his manner was bold note 2 I asked him to come on in out of the cold His brain was boiling, his reason was spent Nothing is borrowed, nothing is lent I asked him for mercy, he gave me a gun Now and again these things just got to be done. Abraham and Isaac sitting on a fence Get right to work if you have any sense You know the one thing we need is a left-hand monkey wrench.

Gideon come in with his eyes on the floor Says, "you ain't got a hinge, you can't close the door" Moses stood up a full six foot ten Said "you can't close the door when the wall's caved in" I asked him for water he poured me some wine We finished the bottle then broke into mine You get what you come for, you're ready to go And it's one in ten thousand done come for the show.

Abraham and Isaac digging on a well Mama come quick with the water witch spell Cool clear water where you can't never tell. And now he's gone Now he's gone, Lord he's gone He's gone Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track He's gone, gone, and nothing's gonna bring him back He's gone. Going where the wind don't blow so strange Maybe off on some high cold mountain range note 1 Lost one round but the price wasn't anything A knife in the back and more of the same.

Same old Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb You know better, but I know him. Ooh, nothing's gonna bring him back Ooh, nothing's gonna bring him back Ooh, nothing's gonna bring him back. Paradise waits On the crest of a wave her angels in flame She has no pain Like a child she is pure, she is not to blame Poised for flight, wings spread bright Spring from night into the sun Don't stop to run She can fly like a lie, she can't be outdone.

Tell me the cost I can pay, let me go, tell me love is not lost Sell everything Without love day to day, insanity's king I will pay, day by day Anyway, lock, bolt and key Crippled but free I was blind all the time I was learning to see. Help on the way Well I know only this, I've got you today Don't fly away 'Cause I love what I love and I want it that way I will stay, one more day Like I say, honey, it's you Making it too Without love in the dream it'll never come true.

Wake of the flood, laughing water, forty nine Get out the pans, don't just stand there dreaming, get out the way Get out the way. Line up a long shot, maybe try it two times, maybe more Good to know you got shoes to wear, when you find the floor Why hold out for more. Asking you nice now, keep the mother rolling, one more time Been down before, you just don't have to go no more No more. You told me goodbye How was I to know You didn't mean goodbye You meant please don't let me go I was having a high time Living the good life Well I know.

I was losing time, I had nothing to do No-one to fight, I came to you Wheels broke down, the leader won't draw The line is busted, the last one I saw. Tomorrow comes trouble note 1 Tomorrow comes pain Now don't think too hard, baby 'Cause you know what I'm saying I could show you a high time Living the good life Don't be that way. Nothing's for certain It could always go wrong Come in when it's raining Go on out when it's gone We could have us a high time Living the good life Well I know.

If I had the world to give I'd give it to you, long as you live Would you let it fall Or hold it in your arms? If I had a song to sing I'd sing it to you, long as you live Lullaby Or maybe a plain serenade. Wouldn't you laugh, dance and cry or be afraid At the change you made? I may not have the world to give to you But maybe I have a tune or two.

Only if you let me be your world Could I ever give this world to you Could I ever give this world to you. If I had a star to give I'd give it to you, long as you live Would you have the time To watch it shine, watch it shine? Or ask for the moon and heaven too? I'd give it to you Well maybe I've got no star to spare Or anything fine or even rare.

Annie laid her head down in the roses She had ribbons, ribbons, ribbons in her long brown hair I don't know, maybe it was the roses All I know, I could not leave her there. I don't know, it must have been the roses The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair I don't know, maybe it was the roses All I know, I could not leave her there.

Ten years the waves rolled the ships home from the sea Thinking well how it may blow in all good company If I tell another what your own lips told to me Let me lay 'neath the roses and my eyes no longer see. One pane of glass in the window No one is complaining, though, come in and shut the door Faded is the crimson from the ribbons that she wore And it's strange how no one comes round any more.

Maybe you collect or maybe you pay Still got to work that eight hour day Whether you like that job or not Keep it on ice while you're lining up your long shot note 1 Which is to say, hey-ey.

Ring that bell for whatever it's worth When Monday comes, don't forget about work By now you know that face on your dollar Got a thumb to its nose and a hand on your collar Which is to say, hey-ey. Punch that time card, check that clock But when Monday comes gotta run, run, run - not walk. Steady boy, study that eight day hour But don't underrate that pay-check power If you ask me, which I know you don't I'd tell you to do what I know you won't Which is to say, hey-ey.

Daddy may drive a V-8 'vet Mama may bathe in champagne yet God bless the child with his own stash Nine to five and a place to crash. No he bailado desde Las Zapatas son perdidas I have not danced since my shoes were lost. I have not danced with your sister yet Is that she who sleeps by my guitar? Moonlight wails as hound dogs bay but never quite catch the tune Stars fall down in buckets like rain till there ain't no standing room Bright blue boxcars train by train clatter where dreams unfold Way down, down along Lazy River Road.

Way down upon Seminole Square belly of the river tide call for me and I will be there for the price of a taxi ride Night double-clutches into today like a truck downshifting its load Way down, down along Lazy River Road. Thread the needle right through the eye The thread that runs so true All the others I let pass by I only wanted you Never cared for careless love but how your bright eyes glowed Way down, down along Lazy River Road. Well hop in the hack, turn on the key Pop in the clutch let the wheel roll free Not a cloud in the sky, such a sunny day Push in the button let the top ten play Come on honey, let me sing 'em away Come on honey, let me sing 'em away Oh, honey, let me sing your blues away.

Give me a little of that old time love 'Cause I ain't never had near enough Honey, walk that walk With style and grace This ain't no knock-down, drag-out race.

It doesn't matter much, pick any gear Grind you a pound and drop the rear Baby, baby, what can I say I'm here to drive those blues away. I sent a letter to a man I know Said one for the money and two for the show I wait all summer for his reply Said three to get ready and four to fly.

Come on honey let me sing 'em away Come on honey let me sing 'em away Oh honey let me sing your blues away. Saw a bird with a tear in his eye Walking to New Orleans my oh my Hey, now, Bird, wouldn't you rather die Than walk this world when you're born to fly? Ooo, freedom Ooo, liberty Ooo, leave me alone To find my own way home To find my own way home. If I was an eagle I'd dress like a duck Crawl like a lizard and honk like a truck If I get a notion I'll climb this tree or chop it down and you can't stop me Chop it down and you can't stop me.

Went to the well but the water was dry Dipped my bucket in the clear blue sky Looked in the bottom and what did I see? The whole damned world looking back at me. Ooo, freedom Ooo, liberty Ooo, leave me alone To find my own way home To find my own way home I'm gonna find my own way home. Loose Lucy is my delight She comes running and we ball all night Round and round and round and round Don't take much to get me on the ground She's my yo-yo, I'm her string Listen to the birds on the hot wire sing.

I got jumped coming home last night Shadow in the alley turned out all my lights Round and round and round and round Don't take much to get me on the ground Loose Lucy, she was sore Says I know you can't want my love no more,.

Bebop baby, how can this be I know you've been out a cheating on me Round and round and round and round Don't take much to get the word around Cross my heart and hope to die I was just hanging out with the other guys. Went back home with two black eyes You know I'll love her till the day I die Round and round and round and round Don't take much to get the word around I like your smile but I ain't your type Don't shake the tree when the fruit ain't ripe.

If I had a gun for every ace that I had drawn I could arm a town the size of Abilene Don't you push me baby, 'cause I'm moaning low And you know I'm only in it for the gold. All that I am asking for is ten gold dollars note 1 And I could pay you back with one good hand You can look around at the wide world over But you'll never find another honest man.

Last fair deal in the country, sweet Susie note 2 Last fair deal in the town Put your gold money where your love is baby Before you let my deal go down. Don't you push me baby, 'cause I'm moaning low Well I know a little something you won't ever know Don't you touch hard liquor, just a cup of cold coffee Gonna get up in the morning and go. Everybody's bragging and drinking that wine I can tell the Queen of Diamonds by the way she shines Come to daddy on an inside straight Well I got no chance of losing this time Well I got no chance of losing this time.

Mason died on Monday We bricked him in the wall All his children grew and grew They never grew so tall before May they never grow so tall again. We dug him up on Tuesday He'd hardly aged a day Taught us all he ever knew We never knew so much before We may never know so much again.

Mason was a mighty man A mighty man was he All he said, when dead and gone Don't you weep for me. The wall collapsed on Wednesday We chalked it up to fate All his children ran and hid We never hid so well before Swore we'd never show our face again. Thursday came, then Friday With fires tall and bright Mason's children cooked the stew And cleaned up when the feast was through Swore we'd never had such times before.

Take me to the Reaper Man To pay back what was loaned If he's in some other land Write it off as stoned. Great North Special, were you on board? You can't find a ride like that no more Night the chariot swung down low Ninety nine children had a chance to go. One long party from front to end Tune to the whistle going round the bend No big hurry, what do you say Might as well travel the elegant way.

Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well Might as well, might as well. Ragtime solid for twenty five miles Then slip over to the Cajun style Bar car loaded with rhythm and blues Rock and roll wailing in the old caboose. Long train running from coast to coast Bringing 'long the party where they need it the most Whup on the box car, beat on the bell Nothing else shaking so you might just as well.

Never had such a good time In my life before I'd like to have it one time more One good ride from start to end I'd like to take that ride again. Run out of track and I caught the plane Back in the county with the blues again Great North Special been on my mind Might like to ride it just one more time. I turn and walk away Then I come round again Looks as though tomorrow I'll do pretty much the same. Someone called my name you know I turned around to see It was midnight in the mission and the bells were not for me Come again Walking along in the mission in the rain Come again Walking along in the mission in the rain.

Ten years ago I walked this street, my dreams were riding tall Tonight I would be thankful Lord, for any dreams at all Some folks would be happy just to have one dream come true But everything you gather is just more that you can lose. All the things I planned to do, I only did half way Tomorrow will be Sunday, born of rainy Saturday There's some satisfaction in the San Francisco rain No matter what comes down, the mission always looks the same.

On the day that I was born Daddy sat down and cried I had the mark just as plain as day, I could not be denied They say that Cain caught Abel rolling loaded dice Ace of spades behind his ear and him not thinking twice. Half step, Mississippi uptown toodleloo Hello baby I'm gone goodbye Half a cup of rock and rye Farewell to you old southern skies I'm on my way, on my way.

If all you got to live for is what you left behind Get yourself a powder charge and seal that silver mine Lost my boots in transit babe, pile of smoking leather Nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather. They say that when your ship comes in, first man takes the sails Second takes the after deck, third the planks and rails What's the point of calling shots, this cue ain't straight in line Cue balls made of styrofoam and no-one's got the time.

I take a little powder I take a little salt I put it in my shotgun And I go walking out. Chooba chooba chooba chooba Wooly Bully wooly bully note 1 Looking high looking high Looking low looking low Gonna scare you up and shoot ya 'Cause Mister Charlie told me so.

I won't even take your life Won't even take a limb Just unload my shotgun note 2 And take a little skin. Well you take a silver dollar Take a silver dime Mix it up together note 3 In some alligator wine. I can hear the drums Voodoo all night long Mister Charlie telling me I can't do nothing wrong. Mister Charlie told me note 4 Thought you'd like to know Give you a little warning Before I let you go. Cold mountain water, the jade merchant's daughter Mountains of the moon, Electra, bow and bend to me Hi-ho, the carrion crow, folderol-de-riddle Hi-ho, the carrion crow, bow and bend to me.

Hey, Tom Banjo Hey, a laurel More than laurel you may sow More than laurel you may sow Hey, the laurel, hey, the city in the rain Hey, hey, the wild wheat waving in the wind. Twenty degrees of solitude, twenty degrees in all note 1 All the dancing kings and wives assembled in the hall Lost is the long and loneliest time, fairy Sybil flying note2 All along the, all along the mountains of the moon. Hey, Tom Banjo It's time to matter The earth will see you on through this time The earth will see you on through this time Down by the water, the marsh king's daughter, did you know Clothed in tatters, always will be, Tom where did you go?

Mountains of the moon, Electra, mountains of the moon All along the, all along the mountains of the moon Heigh ho, the carrion crow, folderol-de-riddle Heigh ho, the carrion crow, bow and bend to me Bend to me. Please don't dominate the rap, Jack If you got nothing new to say If you please, don't back up the track This train's got to run today. I spent a little time in the mountain Spent a little time on the hill I heard some say "better run away" Others say "better stand still". Now I don't know but I've been told It's hard to run with the weight of gold Other hand I heard it said It's just as hard with the weight of lead.

Who can deny? It's not just a change in style One step done and another begun In I wonder how many miles? I spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill Things went down we don't understand But I think in time we will.

Now I don't know but I was told In the heat of the sun a man died of cold Do we keep on coming or stand and wait With the sun so dark and the hour so late? You can't overlook the lack Jack Of any other highway to ride It's got no signs or dividing lines And very few rules to guide. I spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill I saw things getting out of hand I guess they always will.
