Nothin' Civil
03:50
|
|||
Verse:
Baby's got a badge of honor
Right across her pretty cheek
Baby got it from her lover
The drink it made him weak
When he kisses her he leaves his poison
Lingering upon her lips
It makes her leavin' legs go frozen
All the way up to her hips
PreChorus:
And they wake up in the mornin' with an echoed voice in the wind
Beggin' for mercy as the day brings battle again
Chorus:
'Cause there ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Broken bottles on the kitchen floor
And fightin' and fightin' and fightin' only makes it worse
'Cause the talkin' turns to fightin' when their ears are closed
They'll go blind before they ever see the truth unfold
And sooner or later they're gonna need a hearse
'Cause there ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Verse:
The neighbors hear the china shatter
But they don't wanna get involved
They don't think it really matters
'Til the police have been called
PreChorus:
And they wake up in the mornin' with an echoed voice in the wind
Go about their business 'cause it's not their battle to end
Chorus:
'Cause there ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Broken bottles on the kitchen floor
And fightin' and fightin' and fightin' only makes it worse
'Cause the talkin' turns to fightin' when their ears are closed
They'll go blind before they ever see the truth unfold
And sooner or later they're gonna need a hearse
'Cause there ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Bridge:
Silence falls like a flag on the ground
As they carry her body through that quiet town
Chorus:
'Cause there ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Broken bottles on the kitchen floor
And fightin' and fightin' and fightin' only makes it worse
'Cause the talkin' turns to fightin' when their ears are closed
They'll go blind before they ever see the truth unfold
And sooner or later they're gonna need a hearse
'Cause there ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war
Ain't nothin' civil 'bout a civil war

Number One Fan
03:20
|
|||
Verse:
Hush stay where you are
Oh, it just breaks my heart
To see you like this
I can tell you're in pain,
But don't fear, I'm here
I'm here
I've watched you for so long
Ducked in shadows from the start
Guess I've always been shy
You don't know me at all
But I've known you for so long
So long
Chorus:
And I won't let go 'til you understand
I can make you more of a man
I'll be your lover, your savior, your number one fan
And if I can't have you no one can
Verse:
They don't know you like me
They can be what you need
Like I can
Don't look at me that way
I'm not crazy can't you see?
You were made for only me
Chorus:
And I won't let go 'til you understand
I can make you more of a man
I'll be your lover, your savior, your number one fan
And if I can't have you no one can
Bridge:
Hear you...
No one knows you're here but me
No one will find you
'Til we're both out of our Misery
Don't say you love me
I know it's not true
You'll never know the fear of losing you
Chorus:
And I won't let go 'til you understand
I can make you more of a man
I'll be your lover, your savior, your mother
I'll be your lover, your savior, your mother
I'll be your lover, your savior, your number one fan
And if I can't have you no one can

In the Field
02:58
|
|||
Verse:
In the field where you died
Blooms a rare black rose
And our children play where she grows
Where once the ground was soaked in red
And the boys with their muskets
Fought and fled in the field
Where you died
Refrain:
In the field, in the field, in the field where you died
In the field, in the field, in the field where you died
Verse:
I can hear the vibrations of cannons past
And the thunder shakes my bones
As I lay my head down
On the ground in the field
Where you died
Refrain:
In the field, in the field, in the field where you died
In the field, in the field, in the field where you died
(instrumental)
Refrain:
In the field, in the field, in the field where you died
In the field, in the field, in the field where you died
Tag:
In the field where you died
Blooms a rare black rose
And our children play where she grows

Lady About Town
03:21
|
|||
Verse:
She likes her coffee light and sweet
She takes her Grey Goose nice and neat
She wears bright red stiletto shoes
And in the morning when she wakes up
Lights a cigarette puts makeup on
To cover up her blues
Pre-Chorus:
And people take one look
and think they know what she's about
But they don't have a clue
Chorus:
She's got a pistol in her purse
All to artfully she flirts
With death on a daily basis
Seduce you with a smile
Make you go the extra mile
To please her and appease her
She's a lady about town
And she knows her way around
Verse:
She chooses oh so carefully
The company she never
Keeps around for too long
Upstairs she knows that she can't lose
She slips narcotics in his booze
Empties his wallet and she's gone
(PreChorus) (Chorus)
Bridge:
She's got a house but not a home
Prefers to sleep alone
Or so she says
But deep down she wants somebody there
Pretends she doesn't care
Ahhhh
(Chorus)

Murder Ballad Blues
03:27
|
|||
Verse:
They arrested me on Tuesday, but I ain't done nothin' wrong
They arrested me on Tuesday, but I ain't done nothin' wrong
When I asked them what I'm in for, they just sing me a murder song
They sing
Chorus:
Tie you up on the train tracks
Leave you there 'til your blood runs cold
Tie you up on the train tracks
Leave you there 'til the reaper comes
Verse:
Well I recognize those lyrics, I wrote 'em after all
But I swear it's just a story, that tale couldn't get more tall
He asked me did you know him, with a picture in his hand
Well how could I deny it, when he used to be my man
Somebody
Chorus:
Tied him up on the train tracks
Left him there 'til his blood ran cold
Tied him up on the train tracks
Left him there 'til the reaper come
