Stay With Me 02:37
Sometimes I can't clear my mind Think about you baby all the time What I hope for, what you need Love you girl, stay with me Sometimes I can't hardly speak What I wanna say sounds incomplete What I hope for, what you need Love you girl, stay with me My, my, my, hey Here we go Female voice speaking: "You've taught me how to play dirty" "You've taught me how to break people's spirit" "I have a few things I'd like to say to you" Sometimes I can't understand Why you wanna be with another man I can't tell you you can't leave But I love you girl, stay with me

Showed Up 03:42
She got a long-haired kitty Got a cookie jar too I got a brand new bottle and Nothing else to do Come on and dance with me baby I'll shake you out of them shoes I'll put my hands on your hips and Drop a needle in a groove You smeared your lipstick You're kicking like a schoolgirl Slapping and you're yapping You're playing hard to get You're like a banshee, you're coming undone Well, I ain't even touched you yet You got a nice place baby And your man ain't home On such a fine night baby Don't wanna be alone You smeared your lipstick You're kicking like a schoolgirl Slapping and you're yapping Playing hard to get You're like a banshee, you're coming undone Well, I ain't even touched you yet

I spent the whole day drinking Never had an evil thought Sun beating down They say we got a record drought I got creeps in the kitchen that are baking up bread Barefoot kids Looking on the ground for pennies Wasps sleep in trees Waiting for the heat to break I'll undress you later when the moon comes up The driveway's cracking Better call the concrete man Butter's burning Better put the onions in the pan The Devil's turning Know he got a friend in man Loving you is easy baby Take out your bones I can't cool down mama I'm down on my bended knee I'll spritz you with wine Look at me baby Tell your Dad you'll marry me Tell your Dad, tell your Dad you'll marry me Loving you is easy baby

Black Cicada 02:59
I heard a black cicada By a dried up ditch And the moon rolled over like an icehouse bitch I got a bad feelin' Got a low down bad feeling Drove a flathead rat Said I was Mr. Pibb Want be your man so I can grease your lip I want to be your man Lord help me I want to be your man My mind went missing We got right down to that huggin and kissin' She was the devil's daughter That was my surprise I saw the road to madness in between her thighs That woman haunts my nights That woman haunts my nights My mind went missing We got right down to that huggin' and kissin' Well I walked this far just to get me here You know my feet are sore but my mind is clear That woman wrecked my life That woman wrecked my life Got to watch some women There’s fishin' holes where ya don’t go swimin’

Jesus he said love you brother Jesus he said you gotta love one another Walk with Jesus it’s not a long way Walk with Jesus you’ll arrive in heaven one day Jesus he said turn the other cheek Turn the other cheek and let the angels wash your feet If you get downhearted all ya do is pray Believe in Jesus he's coming again some day

Little Shoes 03:15
You know I had a dream about you You were flying on a plane You had packed up your affections You weren't coming back again You know I wanna lean on you But you're driving me away Well I try to hide my feelings You must see them anyway Ain't got no sugar for my coffee Ain't got no butter for my bread Well I really love you baby You love some other man instead

Dime Ballad 03:24
Tell me your crime And I'll let you burn Take off your dress And I'll pour the wine We're just a handful of dirt You get a few precious days Ain't no use in crying over what you can't change I got arms to hold you Lips to kiss your eyes Sleep till tomorrow, baby Everything will be alright You can chase your heart up a tree And the world looks so small All the leaves that hide you will fall upon the ground Open your hand And I'll twist the nail We can watch the candles flicker And wait till they die I'll lay here beside you Where I've always been Maybe tomorrow I'll love you again You can chase your heart up a tree And the world looks so small All the leaves that hide you will fall upon the ground

Alcatraz 03:19
She don't see the good in anything That grows any older Flipping through her magazines Inside where she meets her lovers She says we're like sister and brother Well I don't know what that means Well the days go by She speaks, but I can't hear her This room is like Alcatraz I stare out across the water She says she's gonna leave me someday Well I don't know what that means You cue up with all the shuteyes You pay to hear the future's waiting And I'm swinging like a hanged man Hoping someone cuts me down You got your new world friends I got my twisted ends And I wander through this world Hoping I'll find you again Hoping I'll find you again Outside the sun shines brighter When you drench it in alcohol She goes out and I wait for her Seeing faces on the kitchen wall She says I need her badly She don't know what that means

Tres Mendes 03:20
Mendes was a freak Tall with a weeping eye His sister’s name was Claudia and she’d give any boy a ride Six pm October 9th Most folks were having dinner Mendes put a rod in his mouth and then he pulled the trigger And then there was another Mendes was talking smack and taking names Down at the pool hall He said the 3 into the 9 into the side pocket and dropped it Four o'clock in the morning when most people were in bed There was a tussle behind the pool hall Nobody’s seen Mendes again The Gods love a fool You got to be cool Who you’re talking to, or even you could be Mendes On any Wednesday or pick another day You could be fighting for your life That’s slipping away Slipping away Mendes likes those Asian game shows broadcast overseas Well they're hard to tune in if you wanna see the yellow girls He gets an eight foot ladder and coil of forty foot snake Mendes tumbles off the roof and gets impaled on a garden rake The Gods love a fool You got to be cool Who you’re talking to, or even you could be Mendes On any Wednesday or pick another day You could be fighting for your life That’s slipping away Slipping away

Feed 03:46
White dog Cellophane treat A little Ketamine Put a pony to sleep Coltrane skipping The room is dripping I don’t want to be I don’t want to be I can smell what I hunger for See the light beneath my door I want to feed I want to feed Am I still breathing? Shattered glass Alleyway cheats Gasoline rainbows Under my feet My hands start itching My body starts twitching I don’t want to see I don’t want to see I can smell what I hunger for See the light beneath my door I want to feed I want to feed Train painters And boulevard queens The underpass set Won’t stir from their dreams I want you touch me Tell me you love me Through your broken teeth Through your broken teeth I can smell what I hunger for See the light beneath my door I want to feed I want to feed
