Don't Let The Bastards
They're killing babies in the name of freedom
We've been down that sorry road before
They let us hang around a little longer than they should have
And it's too late to fool us anymore
We've seen the ones who killed the ones with vision
Cold-blooded murder right before your eyes
Today they hold the power and the money and the guns
It's getting hard to listen to their lies.
Chorus:
And i've just got to wonder what my daddy would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around
I've got to go by what he told me, try to tell the truth
And stand your ground
Don't let the bastards get you down
Mining roads
Killing farmers
Burning down schools full of children
Fighting communism
Chorus:
And i've just got to wonder what my daddy would've done

Once More With Feeling
Were just goin through the motions
Of the parts weve learned to play
Never quite together like before
But somehow darlin something good
Got lost along the way
And our song aint nothing
Special anymore
Lets try it one more time
With feeling darlin, take it from the top
Let me feel those tears a fallin babe
I dont want to miss a single drop
Darlin make believe your makin
Me believe each word you say
Try it once more with feeling
And well call it a day
Ah youre reachin out to touch me
Darlin just the way you used to do
An youre lookin everywhere but
In my eyes
Well thats an oldy but its a goody babe

The Last Time
Darling, the seasons are changing
See now, the leaves, how they die
Love needs no reason for ending
Come kiss your baby goodbye.
Darling, the last time you lied, was it really the last time
Have all the tears that you cried simply dried up and gone
All in the world you can hurt anymore is my feelings
What ever love ever was, never lasted too long.
Maybe the best of our life was the beautiful dreamin
That conscience was destined to crumble like castles of sand
All there is left of our love is a little girls laughter
Let her keep making believing as long as she can.
Now and again I still hear some old song, I dont want to
Is it the same over there where you found your new friends
Sometimes at night I still wake up and feel something missing
Maybe Ill never believe in forever again.
Darling, the seasons are changing
See now, the leaves, how they die
Love needs no reason for ending
Come kiss your baby goodbye.

Rain
Rain falling always falling pain hurting never ending
Tear come off tears of sorrow fear after day tomorrow
Cry when there's no use crying goodbye there's no use trying
It all runs together when your love once are gone
And your head spins in circles you're lyin' with your face down and you're afraid
Salvation army band playin' in their all night stand
Rain pourin' from the sky blind people passin' by
No one will help 'em now no one will even try
It all runs together...
This is his time at last (this is his time) his life is fading fast
His faith is fled away (his faith is gone) he tries but cannot break
This is the way we live (this is the way) we take and never give
It all runs together...
Rain falling always falling...
Someone could have helped him but no one would try
Cause their pride wouldn't let them and now he's gonna die there in the rain
Shall we gather at the rain (shall we gather at the river)

They Killed Him
There was a man named mahatma ghandi
He would not bow down, he would not fight
He knew the deal was down and dirty
And nothing wrong could make it right away
But he knew his duty, and the price he had to pay
Just another holy man who tried to make a stand
My god, they killed him !
Another man from atlanta, georgia
By the name of martin luther king
He shook the land like rolling thunder
And made the bells of freedom ring today
With a dream of beauty that they could not burn away
Just another holy man who dared to be a friend
My god, they killed him !
The only son of God almighty
The holy one called jesus christ
Healed the lame and fed the hungry
And for his love they took his life away
On the road to glory where the story never ends
Just the holy son of man well never understand

New Game Now
The moment I entered the world of your vision
I swear that I started to shine
You feel like an angel descending from glory
To come like a dream into mine
Trembling and holding your breath at the wonder
Of hunger so holy and pure
Wild as the freedom I feel in my spirit
So tightly entangled in yours.
Chorus:
Its a new game now
I cast my fortunes with you
I see the dream comin true
Ive got that feelin inside
When it all came down
Did you think Id be tried and be true?
Did you know I was waiting for you
To love you the rest of my life?
Standing alone with your soul to the darkness
Deep as the stars in the sky
Are you the one they have chosen to lead me?

Sugar Man
There are shadows on the sidewalks
Of the city streets at night,
And the alleyways and ugly things
Are hidden from the light.
And somewhere, son, my babys
Gonna sell her soul again,
For a custom tailored lady-killer
They call sugar man.
I searched the backstreet barrooms,
And every cheap hotel,
Asking for my baby; they all knew her well.
Well, they said, shes out there working
For the wages of her sin,
And if you want to find your baby, baby,
Look for sugar man.
Well, tonight I found her
On the sorry side of town
Lying cold upon the bed
Where she had laid her body down.
I picked up the needle that had fallen from her hand

If You Dont Like Hank Williams
I dig bobby dylan and I dig johnny cash
And I think waylon jennings is a table thumpin smash
And hearin joni mitchell feels as good as smokin grass
And if you dont like hank williams, honey, you can kiss my ass
Chorus:
cause I think what theyve done is well worth doin
And theyre doin it the best way that they can
Youre the only one that you are screwin
When you put down what you dont understand
I said, I dig roger miller, merle haggard; george jones
Shotgun willie nelson and them rockin rollin stones
And jerry lees still gotta be the coolest in the class
And if you dont like hank williams, honey, you can kiss my ass.
Chorus:
cause I think what theyve done is well worth doin
And theyre doin it the best way that they can
Youre the only one that you are screwin
When you put down what you dont understand
Forgot to say john prine, neil young, lyle lovett (God bless him), chris
Gantry, jerry jeff walker, and david allen coe...
