Here I am with dust in my pants
I don't know what to do Been on the road for almost a week I just wanna be with you Makes no difference where I am Feeling hard to breathe If I thought you felt the same Wouldn't be so bad for me Thought I know all about it from the start Took a short cut to nowhere To make it feel alright Got to cut this travelling out I hate sayin' goodbye We leave the day we arrive Or I'll wanna know why Crowing closer, comin' in out of the dark Here I am with dust in my pants I don't know what to do Been on the road for almost a week I just wanna be with you |

Can I face tomorrow
With the news you bring me My soul feels cold like ice A pinprick makes no pain Hear me, listen, help me I felt our thing change From love to something else How can it plague my mind A pinprick makes no pain Hear me, listen, help me I shall find myuself But I must have the time To sow the seeds of something new Farmer plough the field Harvest all you can A corn field smells so sweet A pinprick makes no pain Hear me, listen, help me But to follow the weaver of dreams Behind the sun that knows, it seems that I am foresworn - a naked troubadour I sit at court and I sing To the Princess of Beauty and Light She favours me though I'm merely A minstrel of the night There on my right Sits the King with his clowns He pays to laugh While his queen lives on downs And the smile on his brow is the crown Morning bird sing, fill my ears With the joy of our sorrow unmasked Lend me your wings for the sunrays of dawn Are here to last I take my leave, as I leave I must take All I have seen in my dream - then I wake And it is as safe as yesterday is |

Here's your news report
I'm your straight face for today Sorry if it's short But I have to get away And be sick First the powers that be Line their pockets with your bread And it's not too hard to see That you're worth more to them dead Don't you know the taxman Mourns you to the nearest bank You're news report You're news report And it's short, short, short I want to know why people die Because they've been forgotten It's you callin' fallin' And if you're young, son, you're the one To lead us into Hades And if you're shot dead, then you're called brave As they shove you down your grave And nothing is saved While you're growing fat Wiping gravy off your sleeve There's a child who like a rat Would cry and beg for what you leave Oh but you won't be deceived by what you fear And you can't be diseased by what you fear You're news report You're news report And it's short, short, short |

You smell like a field
Cow-shirt in midsummer sun I must have been mad But I gave you all the bread that I had Your mother's a freak She made me weak in my knees You're under her thumb Why don't you pack your bags and run Isn't it sad I pity you now I'm not there I hope you pull through But you're locked in your social zoo I tried to re-arrange your head And show you where you were But you were too sick Then your mother bust her guf And tried to make me think like her But I was too quick You thought I was hooked Showing me off to your friends Wearing me like a badge Was the only kick you ever had Please shave your legs Put down that horse and behave I seen it before I ain't never gonna see it no more You whole domestick scene And the way your life was run Made me so sick That a nifty little number like you Could show anyone a few tricks |

Thinking of the past I feel my life
Is slipping by at such a speed Things I knew have gone and those I loved I look for granted and deceived Call me anything you will I'll hide behind a purple pill And though it seems I'm laughing still I'm crying Looking from my window I see winter Almost too bare to believe People change with seasons And I wonder if it's my turn to receive But they avoid the things I ask Or quickly change their style of mask The faith I had is fading fast I'm dying Seems to me the only way to be Is like a business man And have bad colours round my head Getting drunk to find some peace of mind and consolation But there's still the problem of what happens when I'm dead |

When I was just a kid back in Abeline
I had to use a gun, well for my own sake I shot a man down when I was just eighteen And from that day they call me Shaky Jake. Shaky Jake, boy, what you gonna do ? Texas Rangers coming after you Here's the price you pay for one mistake So get off the streets, it's Shaky Jake. Ma says I was born under bad sign I was lookin' for the chance to make or break I cut my teeth on a brandin' iron I'm the devil's own son, I'm Shaky Jake. Shaky Jake, boy, what you gonna do ? Texas Rangers coming after you Here's the price you pay for one mistake So get off the streets, it's Shaky Jake. I keep on the run now I travel by night I don't need anyone But someone, one day, somewhere's gonna see me right. Dig a hole about six foot deep Pray the Lord my soul to take I don't want flowers and nobody's gonna weep Here lies that outlaw, Shaky Jake. Oh Shaky Jake, boy, what you gonna do ? Texas Rangers coming after you Here's the price you pay for one mistake So get off the streets, it's Shaky Jake. Shakey Jake Shakey Jake Shakey Jake Shakey Jake Shakey Jake Shakey Jake. Oh Shaky Jake, boy, what you gonna do ? Texas Rangers coming after you Here's the price you pay for one mistake So get off the streets, it's Shaky Jake. |

1, 2, 3, 4
The last time I saw her, she was waving me goodbye She swore no other boy would take my place I took a Mississippi Queen through New Orleans and down the Bayou I hoped to find my destiny, my fortune and my face. Please tell her that I said hello Explain to her I didn't want to go But a message from her daddy said : 'He's gonna see me dead' And if I can get out now, she'll never know She'll never know, never know. I stayed around, I played around with all those Southern belles But they took away my money and my pride I had no place to go and the rest you know darn well Living out the gutter ain't so easy to describe. But I still had my guitar, so I joined a dirty band Working in a smoky downtown bar When comes along this big wheel with a contract in his hand Said : 'Put your mark along here boy, I'm gonna make you a rock'n'roll star'. Please tell her that I said hello Explain to her I didn't want to go But a message from her daddy said : 'He's gonna see me dead' And if I can get out now, she'll never know Never know, never know. Well the years have come and gone and I was passing through to find That my home town was still the same to see Well, the memory I had of her had crumbled from my mind I really didn't think she'd still be waiting here for me. Please tell her that I said hello Explain to her I didn't want to go But a message from her daddy said : 'He's gonna see me dead' And if I can get out now, she'll never know She'll never know, never know. Mmm ... If I can get out now, she'll never know Never know, never know Never know, never know Never know. |
