2000 Sunsets have fallen from the skies
Like tears on fire with love 2000 windows have watched Behind my lives and somewhere above Just needin' you and wondering why So many heartaches have risen from my soul Like lovers in need of each other So many tears have shone Behind my smile for love could only hold a key Just holdin' you and lovin' you with all I got Just holdin' you and lovin' you with all I got |

Face in the sun
Like a broken cloud 'Fore morning's come Squintin' eyes In the desert v waste Shouts his cause Its no disgrace Broken Cloud Standin' high Sees the sun And gives out his cry Light in his hair Mighty like the spear In hardened grip Gazing Over yonder plains Stalks the prey With fingertips Scars bear his chest Feathers surround his head Quick and light Ready for tight Loves his life But the warrior is forgot He may laugh at all The weathered storms Friendly with the sun That gives him warmth Alone but free He's a memory Past is the pride That's his company |

Thought I saw you on a train
Could be my imagination So I turned and looked again But you ????? Fooled again your heart to find Thought I saw you in a park Looking at an evening paper When it suddenly went dark Then a quickly as a rapier La paper you disappeared Try to find you, try to find you Ain’t so easy as it seems Like a needle in a haystack I see you in all my dreams Thought I saw you in a rain So turned and tried to follow Then I stopped and looked again And as graceful as a swallow Sorrow, you flew away Try to find you, try to find you Ain’t so easy as it seems Like a needle in a haystack I see you in all my dreams |

Soul hi others ridin In a big white limo Gonna take me where I w w wanna hide IThey was wearin shades Takin swills Of liquor strong and pure I poured out m'heart While they laughed with an art (' Smiling faces tell those lies) They wanted some leg But I shook mah head And offered dollar bills instead So they spun me round And drove me where No mouse could hear a sound And they said Gimme some leg cos there Ain't nothin you can do about it (Gimme some leg, man, there's Nothin you can do about it) Gimme ? Gimme ? If ya want some leg in gonna shake mah head If Y a offer dollar hills instead So don't spin me round And drive me where No mouse can hear a sound And don't say Gimme some leg cos there ain't nothin You can do about it' |

Ya makin up the time that ya lost on de record machine An scarin all the ladies half to death wi' ya new blue jeans
You got the cheek of old Nick you do Coz your daddies doing porridge in the scrubs now All on account of the job that ya pulled on a Halloween But you can fix it. It was a Halloween night and Jack was a seeking his prey He was stalking all the rooftops just a tryin to see the ladies at play An Jack was wearing his daddies clothes So the squealers would mistake him for his Pa now And the very same day his dad was copped for the dirty deed Jack-o-lantern, Jack-o-lantern change your evil ways Your window lovin your window lovin nineteen times a day You better raise your sights just a little bit higher To give your Mama just a little bit brighter day She needs a brighter day |

Those people who are darker than blue Are they gonna hang around this town
And let what others say conic true They're just good for nothing they all figure A boyish grownup shiftless jigger Now they can hardly stand for that Or is that really where it's at Those people who are darker than blue This ain't no time for segregation Talkin bout brown 'n' yellow too High yellow gal can't you tell You're just the surface of our deep dark well If your mind could really see You'd know the color same as me Pardon me brother as you stand in your glory I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story Now I know we have great respect For the sister and mother it's even better yet But there's the joker in the street Loving one brother and killing the other If your mind could really see You'd know the color same as me Pardon me brother as you stand in your glory I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story Pardon me brother I know we've conic a long way Let us stop being so satisfied For tomorrow can even be a brighter day. |

Jake ridin' shotgun the whole of his days
Headin' for the Mexican border Shotgun movin' to the rhythm of his range Just to help him keep law and order Sits right back just a-takin' it easy Drinks a shot a whisky and it makes him mighty wheezy He coughed hard once He coughed hard twice Neglecting keeping watch Don't mind the sheriff's advice Ridin' Shotgun Runnin' over land To the Rio Grande Now Shots rang down from the rocks up above And bore Jake to his feet His pants fell down and actin' like a clown The bullets had him dancin' to a rock 'n' roll beat Big Jake did the boogaloo too Got lucky, he cried like a drunk His operations ain't no ??? for you And that's the way it is Ridin' Shotgun Runnin' over land To the Rio Grande Now Stage gotten in to the centre of town And Jake gotta have himself a drink He got to the bar and what he saw Simple station folk would hate to think Ella-May was dancin' to the sound of the blues Her belly must be wobblin' right down to her shoes It's a-groovin' on the sidewalk, just don't get too near 'Cause you're gonna get knocked over by a belly full o' beer Ridin' Shotgun Runnin' over land To the Rio Grande Take the law in hand To the Rio Grande Now |
