Steel Crazy 03:18
lyrics
Oh, one two three four five six seven I’m walkin while I’m thinkin And my mind is set on you We always have the best of times when the sun is sinkin But now the sky is blue I remember last night when we stayed up late just talkin We both had other plans but nothing ever happened I’ve got a cold cup of coffee As I’m headed out the door And I’ve got myself a headache Left over from the night before And I’m still crazy Still crazy over you Oh and still there’s just one thought in all of this confusion Yeah my mind turns back to you I thought it funny how you’d never seen the ocean From the view above the dunes And I’m just still not sure where all this is going But I woke up with you in my mind this morning And so I don’t know where we’re going But there’s plenty to explore And I feel like time is wasting I only wish that we had more And I’m still crazy Still crazy over you

Party @ Stalin's 05:11
lyrics
A silver head served on a silver platter Exquisite rugs to cover all the blood splatter How fancy are the goblets from which we drink Oh, the guests are getting more than what they think The band is forced to play the red leader’s favourite tunes Simpler than the rising of the sun and moon They only played three chords in the progression Such was the comrade’s favourite obsession They never see it Until it’s too late And this is what we’ve gotta say How great is the comrade’s palace Oh the parties inside they just never end So grab a platter and a gold-encrusted chalice Come and be the leader’s friend All the peasants looking through the window Yeah they just want to be part of the dinner and show Kinda like the critters from Orwell’s Animal Farm Yeah they just wanna catch the leader with their charm But they never see it Until it’s too late And this is what they gotta say Oh that nobody ever leaves the leader’s party The guards ensure it ends quite bloodily And every party ends right in the same way But here’s what the leader wants you to say How great is the comrade’s palace Oh the parties inside they just never end So grab a platter and a gold-encrusted chalice Come and be the leader’s friend

Sleepless Nights 02:39
lyrics
I thought there could be something here But she knew how to get the prize I was the shy one with all those fears She was the one girl with fearless eyes Ooh girl, all these sleepless nights All I ever find is Tossing turning all night long with you on my mind I took you to the symphony I knew right then that this could last Our love grew stronger ‘tween you and me The time I’m with you goes by so fast Ooh girl, all these sleepless nights When you’re not by my side I’m Tossing turning all night long with you on my mind Seeing you like this it makes me sad Whatever happened to the time we had You push me from you, I want to help Put down these stresses and run with me Ooh girl, all these sleepless nights When you’re not by my side I’m Tossing turning all night long with you on my mind

Bayous 03:16
lyrics
Going down to Houston Going to my home There’s no sayin how I’ve been Away and on my own And I never knew it ‘Till I went away Just how much I missed it This hot and sweaty place Oh the bayous of Houston Doesn’t matter where I’ve been When I sit down under that old bridge downtown Then I know I’m coming home again I never knew somebody To feel the way I do But I’m sure there’s something That feels this way for you I’ve been to the edges Of the world I know When I see their waters I feel I’m back at home Oh the bayous of Houston Love your brackish waters brown Feel like no one loves you quite the way I do I won’t ever let them put you down Going to the bayou Got ourselves some wine There ain’t nothing we gotta do Got ourselves some time There’s a full moon rising up above the road Yeah I’ll take this with me everywhere I go Oh the bayous of Houston Lord I love waters brown Feel like no one loves you quite the way I do I won’t ever let them put you down Oh the bayous of Houston Doesn’t matter where I’ve been When I sit down under that old bridge downtown Then I know I’m coming home again credits

Buffalo Kids 03:42
lyrics
know they’re talking Bout all the things I’ve done But now I’m lookin For a place where I can run Cool breeze coming down slowly Round the canyon way I’m free, but barely No place where I can stay I’ve been out running So long I can’t say when I want someplace sunny Someone to call my friend Cool breeze coming down slowly Round the canyon way Someday I’ll stop runnin But not today

All Hail The Trashman 02:22
lyrics
(all hail the trashman) Riding down the street in a great big truck Every couple feet gotta pick stuff up Don’t know where my route leads me Trash as far as the eye can see You might call me a simple man But I work as hard as I can Doing all your dirty work for you All hail the trashman (all hail the trashman) Clean the streets from where I came Think I don’t care much for change Spend a day working in my boots Makes you see what we’ve got to lose You might call me a simple man But I work as hard as I can Doing all your dirty work for you All hail the trashman

Set Your Sails 06:40
lyrics
You’d better set your sails high You’d better hope that the wind is strong Pray to the moon for a shiftin tide Or else you won’t be sailing long The fleet’ll be here in the morning The greatest ships of the admiralty Sent here on the highest order To protect the trade company But the tides have turned against us As the royal fleet draws near Draw your swords and load your muskets We’ll make our final stand right here I guess this battle’s the first of many Better get used to the life at sea Cause I know that I’ll keep on runnin As long as they’ll keep on chasin me

Superman (R.E.M. Cover) 02:55
lyrics
I am, I am, I am superman And I know what's happening. I am, I am, I am superman And I can do anything. You don't really love that guy you make it with now do you? I know you don't love that guy 'cause I can see right through you. I am, I am, I am superman And I know what's happening. I am, I am, I am superman And I can do anything. If you go a million miles away I'll track you down girl. Trust me when I say I know the pathway to your heart. If you go a million miles away I'll track you down girl. Trust me when I say I know the pathway to your heart. I am, I am, I am superman And I know what's happening. I am, I am, I am superman And I can do anything. I am, I am, I am superman And I know what's happening. I am, I am, I am superman And I can do anything.

The High Heat (Live) 02:27
lyrics
In the high heat, in the gold fields We weather the calloused soil While our sweat drips, and our clothes stick We're beaten by the toil

Girl In A Purple Shirt 03:09
lyrics
You and I sit across from one another Talking about things that live within And we both care so deeply about each other Yet we find ourselves growing apart again And I'm sorry for what I've done and all the things I've said I didn't mean to ever hurt you at all I just hate it being separated You are my rock and strength whenever I fall This insanity's driving me crazy all the time Every time I think of you I fall in love all over again Please let me be your gentleman I want nothing more than to sit down next to you And reminisce about all the times of old However I need to learn to grow up too And live in what is now and not in things once told This insanity's driving me crazy all the time Every time I think of you I fall in love all over again Please let me be your gentleman
