One More Go Round
Workin on a thing
Workin on a thing
Funny little thing I know
Sure got to like it
Only thing I got to show you
Running around the room
In my fruit o the loom
A cup of coffee from king tuts tomb
Save me, lumalammalu
Sure enough I must have been mocus
And so out of focus
To miss the first half of the show
Oh, it gets to the end
We get to run it again
Just like before
One more go round
Drank myself some wine
Back in 69
I was fooling around with my friends
In my spare time

Slap Leather
Take all the money that we need for school
And to keep the street people in out of the cold
Spend it on a weapon you can never use
Make the world an offer that they cant refuse
Open up the door and let the shark-men feed
Hoover of the future in the land of greed
Sell the ponderosa to the japanese
Slap leather, head for that line of trees, yeah
Slap leather
Go on ron
Just about to go myself
Turn the whole wide world into a tv show
So its just the same game wherever you go
You never meet a soul that you dont already know
One big advertisement for the status quo
As if these celebrities were your close friends
As if you knew how the story ends
As if you werent sitting in a room alone
And there was somebody real at the other end of the phone, yeah
Squibnocket

One Man Parade
Do believe Im gonna clap my hands
Think I might tap my feet
Put together a one man band
Take a walk on down the street
Have a one man parade
Nobody needs to know
cause Im right good of holding on to secrets
And dont believe they show
All I want is a little dog
To be walking at my right hand
Taking a breeze just as free as you please
Maybe checking out occasional garbage cans
Talking bout a one dog, yall
Nobodys friend but mine
Hey now, you can say hes looking kind of funky
But I do believe it suits me just fine
We were off road again
A was wondering what to do
Ah, but honalei,
It was pouring down rain

(I've Got To) Stop Thinkin' 'bout That
I like to think about the time I met you
Living with your people down in New Orleans
Mad at your mama cause she'd never let you
Ride in no nasty limousine
Later on the levee with the moon up above
I lost my heart and confessed my love
Oh Lucy, God have mercy
I've got to stop thinkin' 'bout that
One Summer night in a field of wheat
God's sweet lanterns hanging in the sky
Moving light on your tiny feet
I knew I had to love you till the day I die
They talk about Amazing Grace
It meant something when I saw your face
Oh Lucy, God have mercy
I've got to stop thinkin' 'bout that
I think of all the little things that I never told you
I think I may get to hold you someday
It's my brain just like a man possessed
I can't do me no work, I can't get me no rest

Night Owl
A catfish he tends to groove on the water
Its just where hes bound to be
And a monkey kinds of flashes on fruits and bananas
So he lives in the top of a tree
But my eyes are made for darkness
And so the nighttime is right for me
Said Im a night owl, honey
Sleep all day long
Now most folks they like the good day time
They like to see the shining sun
Theyre up in the morning
Off and running
till theyre too tired for having fun
But when the sun goes down
And them bright light shine
My daytime has just begun
Im a night owl, honey
Sleep all day long
Said turn off that bright light, baby
Youre just about to drive me blind

You Make It Easy
Gosh almighty baby
Yes, indeed
You supply the satisfy and Ill supply the need
I cant help the way I feel though I know just where it leads
You make it easy ( yes, you do)
For a man to fall, for a man to fall
Heaven knows I love my woman
Just bound to fuss and fight
Now I wind up on the barroom stool
Buying drinks and keeping tight
But you know Ive never done
Whats come in my mind tonight
You make it easy just sitting there looking good
For a man to fall, for a man to fall
Now me and my wife
Weve got the rest of our life
To make this thing right
But you and me will only see tonight
So baby, wont you turn me down and point me out the door
Ill head home and sleep it off just like every time before

Sugar Trade
Now back when this earth was a silver blue jewel
And back when your grandfathers father was young
Men of these shores made and gave up their lives
Pulling up fish from the sea
While down in the african slavery trade
Stealing young men to cut sugar cane
Rum to new bedford and codfish from maine
They were building a wall that will always remain
Oh, the crown and the cross the musket and chain
The white mans religion, the family name
Two hundred years later and who is to blame?
The captain or the cargo or the juice of the sugar cane
The doryman he knows when the riptides will run
He sets out his nets and he sits in the sun
He thinks of his family and drinks of his rum
And he waits for the codfish to come
Its the same god-damned ocean that keeps them alive
It will swallow you up, it will let you survive
It will heal you and steal you and take you away
Like a note in a bottle with nothing to say

Back On The Street Again
I don't care if I got no money, I don't care if I got a dime.
All I want to do is to dance with you honey, please tell me that you have the time.
Cause I gotta get back on my feet again, gotta get back on the street again.
La, la, la, la la la la la la la la la.
I don't care if I got no fame, all I want to do is to hold your hand.
Don't care if nobody knows my name cause I just want to try the best I can, yes I do.
Gotta get back on my feet again, gotta get back on the street again.
La, la, la, la la la la la la la la la. La, la, la, la la la la la la la la la.
Well, I don't know just what the world is coming to.
And I don't know just what is going on, and momma do you?
Well, all I really know is I gotta get back on my feet again. Help me up now.
I don't care if I got no money, I don't care if I got a dime.
All I want to do is to dance with you honey, please tell me that you have the time.
Cause I gotta get back on my feet again, gotta get back on the street again.
La, la, la, la la la la la la la la la. La, la, la, la la la la la la la la la. Stand it up for me now.

Family Man
Woah jocko, dont expect me
To come out drinking, messin around
Spending my time
With a bunch of crazy people
Yes, I been there before
I dont need to go back no more
Im just a family man
Like it or not
I am a family man
Im a-holding onto what Ive got
Im a family man
Right by damn
Finally, find out what I am
Is a family man
And dont expect me
To hit the road
At a moments notice
Without my suitcase
With some crazy bunch of strangers
In some unknown car
