Running to Stand Still (live). (lyrics) And so she woke up Woke up from where she was Lying still Said I gotta do something About where we’re going Step on a steam train Step out of the driving rain, maybe Run from the darkness in the night Singing ha, ah la la la de day Ah da da da de day Ah la la de day Sweet the sin the Better the taste in my mouth I see seven towers But I […]
All I Want is You (live). (lyrics) You say you want Diamonds on a ring of gold You say you want Your story to remain untold But all the promises we make From the cradle to the grave When all I want is you You say you’ll give me A highway with no one on it Treasure just to look upon it You say you’ll give me Eyes in a moon of blindness A river in a time of dryness A harbor […]
Desire (live). (lyrics) Lover, I’m off the street Gonna go where the bright lights and the big city meet With a red guitar on fire Desire She’s a candle burning in my room Yeah, I’m like the needle, needle and spoon Over the counter with that shotgun Pretty soon everybody got one And the fever when I’m beside her Desire Desire, right And the fever getting higher Desire Desire Burning, burning She’s the dollars She’s my protection Yeah, she’s the promise In […]
Everybody’s on the Run (cover). (lyrics) You can’t fight the feeling And always the same pouring rain You know, you know, It’s coming out of the ceiling, Falling from above Falling in and out of love A broken heart is still beating In and out of time Hold your body next to mine You know, you know, When you can’t stop the bleeding Sing to yourself and hold on, ‘Cause everybody’s on the run Everybody’s on the run Hang in there love […]
Vampire Blues (live). (lyrics) I’m a vampire, babe, suckin’ blood from the earth I’m a vampire, baby, suckin’ blood from the earth. Well, I’m a vampire, babe, sell you twenty barrels worth. I’m a black bat, babe, bangin’ on your window pane I’m a black bat, baby, bangin’ on your window pane. Well, I’m a black bat, babe, I need my high octane. Good times are comin’, I hear it everywhere I go Good times are comin’, I hear it everywhere I […]
Too Good to Be True (cover). (lyrics) Her imagination ran wild Could this really happen to me? She could barely hold back the tears [Chorus:] It was too good to be true It was too good to be true It was too good to be true Everything that she’d waited for Everything that she’d dared to dream Suddenly was outside her door [Chorus] There was no talk of giving in And just as hope was wearing thin Her eyes were like a […]
Get Rhythm!(live) (lyrics) Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues Get a rock ‘n’ roll feelin’ in your bones Put taps on your toes and get gone Get rhythm when you get the blues A Little shoeshine boy never gets low down But he’s got the dirtiest job in town Bendin’ low at the peoples’ feet On the windy corner of the dirty street Well, I asked him while he shined my […]
Hey, I want to give background on the song before you listen. I was walking up a steep hill yesterday, feeling bad about my music. Sighing to myself, “another day older..” Then boom, the lyric came to me. “and deeper in debt.” The tune was one I heard a lot growing up. Just as frequently as Row, Row, Row Your Boat. It is about working in a coal mine. I feel justified in singing it. My great grandfather, in probably around the […]
Apathy Song. (lyrics) Don’t matter if I sleep all day. Don’t matter if I have much to say. Don’t matter if the sky falls. Don’t matter for the love of it all. They don’t know, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t… Don’t matter if the sun don’t shine. Don’t matter if I’m mean or kind. Don’t matter if I know what to do. Don’t matter between me and you. They don’t know, I don’t , I don’t , I don’t… Don’t matter […]
