You can throw me in a corner
You can turn out my light
I won’t beg and I won’t holler, no, no
Though I know something ain’t right
Yeah I’m talking bout
Hey, hey, hey, hey, where did those good times go
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, where did those good times go now
I don’t know my own face no more
I don’t even recognise my own front door
Though I’ve roamed these streets a thousand times
Somehow I feel I’ve never been here before
Yeah I’m talking ‘bout now
Hey, hey, hey, hey, where did those good times go
Hey, hey, hey, hey, lord I need to know, tell me
Hey, hey, hey, hey, where did those good times go

The Ballad of Bobby Grey
04:41
|
|||
|
They ran out of daylight, the trail had gone cold
A hand on her shoulder was no comfort at all
Nobody knows what happened that day
Or what became of old ‘Bobby Grey’.
Down by the water, down by the sea
I hear her daughter calling to me
Somewhere in the darkness, oh where she lay
Down in the water lies old ‘Bobby Grey’.
Oh every year now, same place the same time
She goes to the pier where they said their goodbyes
Down by the harbour where the children play
She wrapped her arms ‘round him and he sailed away
Now some say they’ve seen her sail on the horizon
But I only see her when I close my eyes
Deep in my heart I think I’ve always known
That Bobby won’t every find her way back home
Down by the water, down by the sea
I hear her daughter calling to me
Somewhere in the darkness, oh where she lay
Down in the water lies old ‘Bobby Grey’.
Down by the water, down by the sea
I hear her daughter calling to me
Somewhere in the darkness, oh where she lay
Down in the water
Down in the water
Down in the water
Down in the water
Lies old ‘Bobby Grey’.

Love Sick

Lady you got my crying
On the floor like I’m dying
I can’t remember the last time
I felt so down and out
Lady you got me crawling
Like a baby I’m bawling
Every day is a lifetime
When there’s so much worry and doubt
Gave it all for free now I’m paying
A game I never knew we were playing
Oh how do I know
When it’s my turn to roll
If you want me come show me
If you need me come hold me
If you call me I’ll be there
You got me love sick, sick of the Blues
Every day is a burden
Like a fool yeah I’m yearning
For your love to come calling
Like it did some time ago
Gave it all for free now I’m paying
A game I never knew we were playing
Oh how do I know
If I come or I go
If you want me come show me
If you need me come hold me
If you call me I’ll be there
You got me love sick, sick of the Blues
If you want me come show me
If you need me come hold me
If you call me I’ll be there
You got me love sick, sick of the Blues

Something For Free
03:43
|
|||
|
Landlord knocking at my door saying son you can’t live here no more
He smiled and said I hope you understand
You see I live a life of luxury and if you can’t afford to pay me
I guess I’ll have to find somebody else who can
So I said won’t you give me something, don’t leave me here with nothing
Won’t you give me something for free
You see I’ve had a rough time lately, I’ve been kicked around, gone crazy
Won’t you give me something for free
Taxman knocking at my door saying son, you got to give me some more
He smiled at me and then held out his hand
You see this ain’t a free country you know, now it’s time to pay me what you owe
Now dig down deep and give me all you can
So I said won’t you give me something, don’t leave me here with nothing
Won’t you give me something for free
I’ve lost everything that I own and it’s through no fault of my own
So won’t you give me something for free
Taxman said son, no can do, my hands are tied, I don’t make the rules
Landlord turned his head and walked away
I tried to live my life an honest man, now the time has come to make my stand
So I’m gonna take back all I can today
So I said won’t you give me something, I ain’t leaving here with nothing
Won’t you give me something for free
I’ve been through breakups, I’ve had breakdowns, I’ve been shook up, I’ve been shot down
So won’t you give me something for free

Ticket Out of Here
04:07
|
|||
|
It’s been a long time coming, heading for the door
There ain’t nothing for me here no more
I’m leaving I’m leaving
And I’ve been dreaming for oh so long
This day would come and I’ll be gone
No grieving, no grieving
Once I’m on the road
It’s gonna be out with the old
Old
I’ll be gone in the morning
I’ll be gone my dear
Oh so long I’ll be leaving
Now I got my ticket out of here, here, here
It weren’t always bad don’t get me wrong
This was my home for oh so long
Remember, remember
But I done my time where the rich man preys
And I’m moving on to brighter days
Forever, forever
Once I’m on the bus
You know you won’t see me for dust
Dust
I’ll be gone in the morning
I’ll be gone my dear
Oh so long I’ll be leaving
Now I got my ticket out of here, here, here
Tomorrow I’ll be waiting on the one way train
To take me away from the pouring rain
Forever, forever
Just one last thing before I leave
I got a little biddy trick sitting up my sleeve,
I’ll show you, I’ll show you
I got a ticket going free
Won’t you come along with me?
With me
I’ll be gone in the morning
I’ll be gone my dear
Oh so long I’ll be leaving
Now I got my ticket out of here, here, here

My Time Again
03:02
|
|||
|
They say all good things must come to an end
That nothing lasts forever and time aint your friend
Oh if I knew all I know now
I'd take away all this sorrow and turn it around
And if I could do my time again
Oh baby I'd find a knew place to begin
I've made mistakes and I've only begun
You don't get long and I long to be young
I know I'm foolish I know I'm blind
There's always tomorrow but I'm stuck way behind
And if I could do my time again
Oh baby I'd find a knew place to begin
You turn your back and I'll turn mine too
This water is troubled but it's the only way through
I've had it easy right up 'til now
I don't know where I'm going but I'll get there somehow
And if I could do my time again
Oh baby I'd find a knew place to begin
Now tell me now tell me
Oh I'd find a new place to begin
Don't ever give it up no
Don't ever give it up no
Don't ever give it up no no

I woke up with a mouth as dry as sand
Last night’s faded bar stamp on my hand
Trying to recall the things I said
Shake my head and blame it all on the booze instead
But I don’t remember telling you I loved you
I don’t remember telling you at all
No I don’t remember telling you I loved you
I don’t remember knocking at your door
I don’t remember sleeping on your floor
And I don’t remember telling you I loved you
But baby that don’t mean that it ain’t true
You and me been friends for oh so long
I’d tell you ’bout the girls that do me wrong
You’d take my hand and tell me that you were there for me
But now it’s time for me to go set my love for you free
But I don’t remember telling you I loved you
I don’t remember telling you at all
No I don’t remember telling you I loved you
I don’t remember knocking at your door
I don’t remember sleeping on your floor
And I don’t remember telling you I loved you
But baby that don’t mean that it ain’t true
But baby that don’t mean that it ain’t true

Daze
03:15
|

|
Well I thought that I was going strong
So there must be something going on
There's a cage around my bed
Strange voice inside my head
Oh I'm in a daze Mama
Would you be amazed Mama
If I told you now that somehow
I have fallen in a daze Mama
No this aint no phase Mama
I cant understand how a man
Can just fall into a daze Mama
I've been for days Mama
Well I need a little helping hand
To get on my feet so I can stand
This world has made me weak
So much to say but I can't speak
Oh I'm in a daze Mama
Would you be amazed Mama
If I told you now that somehow
I have fallen in a daze Mama
No this aint no phase Mama
I cant understand how a man
Can just fall into a daze Mama
I've been for days Mama
Oh days mama I've been here for days Mama
Days mama oh no this aint no phase Mama
Days mama I've been here for days Mama

Rainey Street
04:25
|

|
I met her on a rainy street in Austin
I'm not there that often but I know when I found home
She was sitting at a table in a dive bar
Sipping on a Lonestar she was all alone
We walked down Rainey street in Austin
A place you can get lost in but somewhere you should know
Now I see her every time I'm in the city
Now I know she's nowhere near me
She's everywhere I go
Oh and I tried
To move on
But I can't help
Holding on
Oh and I tried oh I tried
To move on
But I can't help
Holding on
I met her on Rainey Street in Austin
I think about it often and I hope she does the same

Fool
04:41
|
|||
|
We said goodbye as I boarded the plane
But something inside told you it won't be the same
Somehow you knew that when I'd come home
I'd leave you all alone
I'm just a plateful of ungrateful
I'm just a heart full of disease
Now if you need a friend or a lover
I'll be the one to bring you down to your knees
Now I'm a fool to leave you
Now I'm a fool that's gonna make you cry
Oh but you'll be a fool for the rest of your life
You'll be a fool if you don't say goodbye
Yea I fool once shame on me
I fool twice yea now maybe there's some sympathy
But baby don't you blame me on that third go round
When you're crying on your own over me
I'm a fool to leave you
I'm a fool that's gonna make you cry
Oh but you'll be a fool for the rest of your life
You'll be a fool if you don't say goodbye
You can't hold me down
You can't hold hold me down
Oh no you can't hold me oh hold me hold me down
Oh no you can't hold me oh hold me hold me down
Now I'm a fool to leave you
Now I'm a fool that's gonna make you cry
Oh a fool's gonna do what a fool's gonna do
Yea so don't you be no fool too
