Empty bottle was half empty, tide was low, and I was thirsty
I saw her sitting at the bar, well you know how some girls are Always making eyes, well she wasn't making eyes So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted, "Hi there" My name's Stewart Ransom Miller, I'm a serial lady-killer" She said, "I'm already dead," that's exactly what she said So we tripped the lights fantastic, we was both made of elastic Midnight came and midnight went and I though I was the President She said, "Do you have a car?" and I said, "Do I have a car?"

In a hotel room just off Times Square it's like a closet
I can watch the dancing class go round. In a hotel room that costs as much as my apartment I can watch the working class go down. And it's enough to make a crooked man go straight - Broadway, Broadway. In a hotel room just off Times Square they made a monster He was unaware of what went down. Fattening him up just like a calf before a slaughter He'd had his fill of hollow town. And it's enough to make a stupid man think straight Broadway, Broadway And it's enough to make a crooked man go straight Broadway, Broadway, Broadway, Broadway. |

Well the road maps of West Texas never gave me good advice
The trains all roll where the roads don't go, now I lay awake at night Just wondering where the rest is so I hit that iron gate And I yelled good-bye to that wife of mine, I may be running late I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home I made my bed, so here I lie I'm rolling West Texas teardrops in my eye Though I felt a lonesome feeling in Dulce, New Mexico I was happier than I'd ever been in my El Paso home But I thought about the woman whom I left to roam the land And I cried so much it dug a rut they call the Rio Grande I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home I made my bed, so here I lie I'm rolling West Texas teardrops in my eye And my destination is written upon my feet And the stars above are about the only company I keep So raise my pass and take my seat I'm rolling fast with a teardrop on my cheek So I guess there'll be no family, so I guess there'll be no wife Gonna roll away on an old steel dray, it's gonna be my life And the road maps I been reading, I never came to figure out All I know is I'd explode by any other route I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home I made my bed, so here I lie I'm rolling West Texas teardrops in my eye I'm a-rolling on, I'm a-rolling on Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home I made my bed, so here I lie I'm rolling West Texas teardrops in my eye And I'm rolling West Texas teardrops in my eye And I'm rolling West Texas teardrops in my eye |

In the front row at the Melt show
I fell in love with you and that was three weeks ago. We fooled around, you let me have it for free. Yeah it worked out real nice I showed you how to and you showed me paradise. Now you're killing time, and it's killing me. Is this more than some old summer fling? And this thing we have, will it mean anything? When October rolls around will you sober up and let me down? Will you sober up and let me? There's a schoolyard out the back door. I used to love it but I don't believe in school no more. You don't learn anything, you're just waitin' around. With your big brains and your know-how, If there's a reason you'd have figured it out by now. A little gettin' some's good, while you're waitin' around. Is this more than some old summer fling? And this thing we have, will it mean anything? When October rolls around will you sober up and let me down? Will you sober up and let me? Now my bad dream is my best friend, You were here last night but now you're gone again. I'm getting tired of you getting tired of me. Is this more than some old summer fling?

Like a number on a scorecard. They're gonna wrap you up in corn silk They're gonna cry like you were spilled milk. You'd better take another Quaalude And get yourself corkscrewed. I understand that you got cold feet But why'd you have to take 'em down a side street? I must be dumber than a spit curl cause I got hung up on a showgirl Now I look like I'm a scarecrow I might as well go on a talk show CHORUS And this ain't home anymore Its just four walls and a floor Home is where you get the goods for free This is just the house that used to be Yeah the house that used to be You're gonna wind up in a graveyard Like another girl who co-starred They're gonna wrap you up in corn silks They're gonna cry like you were spilled milk And in the far off wail of freight trains And in the lonely howl of Great Danes I hear the girl I lost forever I hear the girl I lost forever CHORUS |

I watch, as it stops for a girl,
A moment, elaborate and weak. I am easy in her midst, Why elaborate, when there's no need to? But I do, all night, My words ring like money off a bar. But she's here, asleep now, One can only go alone so far. One can only go alone so far. I dream of a deep dark grave, Seven feet below Saint Augustine. And she's so easy in her breathing, Why fall in love, when there's no need to? But we do all night, Sleep like spoons, forget whom we are. But she's here, and she's wound down now. One can only go alone so far. One can only go alone so far. |

How can you have everything and nothing to lose You and nobody see eye to eye You're gonna wake up with a ghost instead of a guy Bulletin board on the wall of a church Soaking up the city from a top-step perch You're gonna break down on a midnight date Gonna curse this town, you're gonna run late You're pretty as a penny, roller-skate skinny Pretty as a penny, roller-skate skinny Do you want to meet up at the Pickwood Bowl We could knock nine down and leave one in the hole Wouldn't be here if the Athenia hadn't sunk Or if Dear ol Dad hadn't got so drunk Every other day is a kick in the shins Every other day it's like the day just wins But you make it all right, you make it OK You make me sorta glad that I waited till today You're pretty as a penny, roller-skate skinny Pretty as a penny, roller-skate skinny (guitar break) Roller-skate skinny and the terrible twos Two years in and it's time to choose Love feels good when it sits right down, puts its feet up on the table it Sends a bowl around Ain't nobody gonna see eye to eye With a girl who's only gonna stand collarbone high Rain's gonna come in fair-sized drips And we're gonna go to heaven wearing paper-hat ships You're pretty as a penny, roller-skate skinny Pretty as a penny, roller-skate skinny I believe in love, but it don't believe in.... I believe in love, but it don't believe in me I believe in love, but it don't believe in me (repeat) |

Do you wanna mess around?
Do you wanna spend the night? I've known both kinds of love But i want to get it right this time I don't wanna settle down I don't want to make no plans Exept for what i'm gonna do With a pair of idle hands Chorus: They're tearing the buick city complex down I think we're the only people left in town Where are you gonna move, where are you gonna move? Do you wanna mess around? Do you wanna be my girl Do you wanna be my friend Do you wanna start it off Just to see how it will end Do you wanna mess around? I mean deep down in your bones In hotel swimming pools On public telephones They're tearing the buick city complex down I think we're the only people left in town Where are you gonna move, where are you gonna move? Do you wanna mess around? Repeat chorus |

I left you last night on the left coast
I'm writin' you a letter right now The things that you do are rendering you Something I can't live without Maybe maybe I've got a pulse now Maybe my heart's on fire A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire Left you last night on the left side The land of the free to be burned Well the heat of your touch is makin' it such That I've forgotten everything I've learned Maybe maybe I've got a problem Maybe my heart's a liar A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire And I may be a bird in a cage But it least it's your cage And I may be a bird in a cage But it least it's your cage Left you last night on the left half Of the bed, the half that used to be mine The way that you sleep is the image I'll keep Always on the edge of my mind Maybe maybe I've got a reason For livin' even though I'm so tired A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire And I may be a bird in a cage But it least it's your cage And I may be a bird in a cage But it least it's your cage Maybe maybe you are the only One my heart's desired A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is worth a bird on a telephone wire A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage Is w |

I'm gonna tend a bad fire until you come around
I'd sing you real live love songs If I could get the feeling down I want to make you happy but the devil's out my way So I'll just pack up everything Roll it out and up the devil's pay I want to cause a bad scene but I gotta change my ways I want to hear your sound again I want to see you 'round someday I want to make you happy but the devil's out my way So I'll just pack up everything Roll it out and up the devil's pay And it seems no one can comfort me To take me from this station where I'm at 'cause the things I love are leaving me and it's taking every single piece it's a grade-A mess and it's cutting teeth it's a big black wind that's blowing back of me I'm gonna roll up everything into a big red sun boil til the room's insane wave my rattles on and on I want to make you happy but the devil's out my way So I'll just pack up everything Roll it out and up the devil's pay |

She woke from a dream
Her head was on fire Why was he so nervous? He took her to the park She crossed her arms And lowered her eyelids Someday, somebody's gonna ask you A question that you should say |

When you were just a little girl in Pine Bluff,
Daddy disappeared without a trace. Now there's no more little girls in Pine Bluff, They all ran like tears out of this place. (Chorus) Am I too late Am I too late Tell you that I love you Now they've carried you away (repeat) Never thought that you would see a sickbed, Never thought that you'd stop bein' 'round. Now I hear you're lost and gone forever, Just like all the other girls in town. (Chorus) Now I hear that you have gone to Heaven, And if there's one, I'm sure that's where you are. Maybe you're the new star in the night sky, Just outside the moonroof on my car. (2x Chorus) Tell you that I love you Now they've carried you away Tell you that I love you Now they've carried you away Tell you that I love you Now they've carried you away |

Standin' on the corner of 6th and how to forget
Tryin' to do right by you all night, Annette. You can go ahead and get married And this'll be our secret thing. I won't tell a soul except the people in the nightclub where I sing. I don't wanna get you all worked up, Except secretly I do. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. Standin' on the corner of 6th and where do I go The parade shut down now the rain is runnin' the show. Where did all these people come from And how soon can they leave? Normally I'd be headin' to it But I need to get some sleep Though I do wish you'd come over but I'm warning you if you do I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. Standin on the corner of 6th and where do I get Tryin' to do right by you all night, Annette. This would only be an experiment In things that could have been And you can go ahead and get married And it'll probably never happen again I don't mean to make you excited except secretly I do. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you. I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have designs on you |

In the court of our friends' opinion,
In the right cut eyes of all our friends, In the way the phone goes dead, In the way you lose your head, I can see how this thing is gonna end. In the darkest hours of my depression, In the tumbling rocks it takes to mend, In the way you cross your legs, In the way my right hand shakes, I can see how this thing is gonna end. Goodbye, Goodbye! From a nervous guy Goodbye, Goodbye! From a nervous guy From a nervous guy When the smoke pours into the bedroom, When the man comes 'round collectin' all our friends, When the loved one finally learns that the fire no longer burns, I can see how this thing is gonna end. Goodbye, Goodbye! From a nervous guy Goodbye, Goodbye! From a nervous guy From a nervous guy From a nervous guy |
