Jesus Sandals

My jesus sandals are missing
I think I left them at the back of the stage
With the angry divorcee who’s trying to help me get away
They were like slides made of gentle leather
They would always carry me safely through
Don’t wanna put back on my boots
I don't wanna but I’m gonna put on my boots
This really is no joke my toenails are buried and not breathing yellow and coarse
Don’t wanna put back on my boots
I don't wanna but I’m gonna put on my boots
Jesus sandals are missing and what am I supposed to do
A guru with no sandals stuck in Houston talking to ????

Valentine
03:31

Inside her feeble mind
She is spinning out of time
Like a hunter who’s gone blind
My valentine
Beside her velvet nest she humiliates the best
Couldn’t take no more I guess of my valentine
Valentine I killed my valentine
And I laughed until I cried for my valentine
Valentine I killed my valentine
And I shall gladly do the time for my valentine
Beneath the rugged skirt she does most of her work
Laughing while you hurt for my valentine
In the middle of every dream is a lie that holds you the key
To free you from what you think you need
Like my valentine
Valentine I killed my valentine
And I laughed until I cried for my valentine
Valentine I killed my valentine
And I shall gladly do the time for my valentine

Visit Me in Music City
03:57
|
|||
I was born at the Ryman Auditorium
During the Martha White portion of the Grand Ole Opry
Roy Acuff cut off my umbilical
And tied me off with his yo yo string
It was easy growing up for me in Nashville
Music City has always been good to me
There’s room for you and your cowboy boots
We’ll even get you a rhinestone suit
You don’t even have to sing on key
Producers with computers can fix it all in Nashville, Tennessee
So come and visit me in Music City
We’ll drink all night and write songs no one will sing
In pickup bars the country stars play Japanese guitars
Come and visit me in Nashville, Tennessee
The hills are filled with naked hee haw honeys
Who all sing along in perfect harmony
The world's greatest giving guitar pickers
Can deliver you a pizza or sell you weed
Guitars strings grow on shrubs and maple trees
Guitar picks dump a lot of gumball machines
Record deals fly in and out like happy bumble bees
The cops carry capos in case you wanna change your key
In Nashville, Tennessee
So come and visit me in Music City
We’ll drink all night and write songs no one will sing
In pickup bars the country stars play Japanese guitars
Come and visit me in Nashville, Tennessee

Terrible Sunrise
06:05
|

If you talk any faster with food in your teeth
I swear to god I’m gonna call the police
The sunrise ain’t pretty when you ain’t been to bed
Tomorrow is today instead
And I know where you wanna go
The devil has crawled inside your nose
I’ve run with you as far as I can go
Completely out of control
There’s another motherfucker knockin on your door
With four drunk girls who want to score
There’s a dangerous dollar rollin up in your hand
While your newlywed waits in bed
And I know where you wanna go
The devil has crawled inside your nose
I’ve run with you as far as I can go
Completely out of control

Sad Smile
03:19
|

Last night I got busted
For acting just like myself
While wishing I was somebody else
And everybody knows
Just who I am
I’m the chewing gum
Stuck in your hand
And what’s making you smile
Is making me sad
I know it feels good but this is gonna be bad
And all of my blessins just make you mad
What’s makin you smile is makin me sad
And you said goodbye
I heard hello where are you gonna go
The only fool you know
We found the place
Between love and hate
Where nothing feels that good
But nothing feels that great
And what’s making you smile
Is making me sad
I know it feels good but this is gonna be bad
And all of my blessins just make you mad
What’s makin you smile is makin me sad

Borrow Your Cape
05:55
|

Hey wait can I borrow your cape
Your leader has fallen down
And if he don’t get up this time
Who’s gonna save this clown
Brace your face for a moderate phase where the scoundrels ??? the fools
At the moment when all common sense becomes ??????
Hey wait can I borrow your cape
The crowd is beginning to turn
And the bandages they are so tight
They are beginning to burn
Brace your face for a moderate disgrace the siblings have taken control
And they think the allies are the ones who are buying all the bull
Hey wait can I borrow your cape
The leader’s nowhere to be found
And if you wake up his fans you will not hear a sound
Brace your face with a grin to win the media’s singing your tune
And the wolves have all run out of food
As the schools are teaching something new

Don't Go to Chattanooga
03:29
|

I don’t wanna go to Chattanooga
I just wanna lay here with you
I don’t wanna go to Chattanooga
The judge says it’s what I got to do
Laying here with you
Will you wait for weeks for me
Will you wait for weeks for me
The moon is shinin on the water
And the water is all over you
Love me one last time in the water
To Manchester I will walk with you
Going home with you
Will you wait for weeks for me
Will you wait for weeks for me
Will you wait for weeks for me
Will you wait for weeks for me
Will you wait for weeks for me

One of Us Has Got to Go
02:17
|
|||
I saw you and your handsome new dude
Kissing and smiley last night
I would rather have poison beaked sparrows pluck out my drying eyes
One of us has got to go babe
One of us has got to go
It would please me to tell you babe
One of us has got to go
One of us has got to go
I climbed to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge
But I forgot I’m afraid of heights
Put bullets in the pistol but the pistol in my mouth
But that barrel just didn’t taste right
One of us has got to go babe
One of us has got to go
It would please me to tell you so babe
One of us has got to go
One of us has got to go
There’s no suicide for the courage of a coward
But one of us has got to go
Standing outside your window I’m thinkin
One of us has got to go
You can’t see me but I can see you and
One of us has got to go
With a hammer pulled back my finger shakes on the trigger and
One of us has got to go
You smile so true as he’s rubbing on you and
One of us has got to go
One’s not enough and three is too many
One of us has got to go
