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

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

Barefoot Kids

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’

Walk With Jesus
02:38
|

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

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

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

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

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
