Your Gold Teeth II
Who are these children
Who scheme and run wild
Who speak with their wings
And the way that they smile
What are the secrets
They trace in the sky
And why do you tremble
Each time they ride by
CHORUS:
Throw out your gold teeth
And see how they roll
The answer they reveal
Life is unreal
Who are these strangers
Who pass through the door
Who cover your action
And go you one more
If you're feeling lucky
You best not refuse
It's your game the rules

Kings
Now they lay his body down
Sad old men who run this town
I still recall the way
He led the charge and saved the day
Blue blood and rain
I can hear the bugle playin
Chorus:
We seen the last of good king richard
Ring out the past his name lives on
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher
Raise up your glass to good king john
While he plundered far and wide
All his starving children cried
And though we sung his fame
We all went hungry just the same
He meant to shine
To the end of the line
Chorus

Ruby Baby
I got a girl and ruby is her name
She dont love me, but I love her just the same
Ruby baby how I want you
Like a ghost Im gonna haunt you
Ruby baby when will you be mine
Each time I see you baby my heart cries
Im gonna steal you away from all those guys
From the sunny day I met you
Made a bet that I would get you
Ruby baby when will you be mine
I got a girl and ruby is her name
Id give the world just to set her heart aflame
Got some lovin money too
Gonna give it all to you
Ruby baby when will you be mine

The Boston Rag
Any news was good news
And the feeling was bad at home
I was out of mind and you
Were on the phone
Lonnie was the kingpin
Back in nineteen sixty-five
I was singing this song
When lonnie came alive
Chorus:
Bring back the boston rag
Tell all your buddies
That it aint no drag
Bring back the boston rag
You were lady bayside
There was nothing that I could do
So I pointed my car down
Seventh avenue
Lonnie swept the playroom
And he swallowed up all he found
It was forty-eight hours til

Change Of The Guard
If you listen you can hear it
Its the laughter in the street
Its the motion in the music
And the fire beneath your feet
All the signs are right this time
You dont have to try so very hard
If you live in this world
Youre feelin the change of the guard
All the cowboys and your neighbors
Can you swallow up your pride
Take your guns off it youre willin
And you know were on your side
If you wanna get thru the years
Its high time you played your card
If you live in this world
Youre feelin the change of the guard

Brooklyn
A race of angels
Bound with one another
A dish of dollars
Laid out for all to see
A tower room at eden rock
His golf at noon for free
Brooklyn owes the charmer
Under me
His ladys aching
To bring a body down
She daily preaches
On where she wants to be
An evening with a movie queen
A face we all have seen
Brooklyn owes the charmer
Under me
A case of aces
Done up loose for dealing
A piece of island cooling in the sea
The whole of time we gain or lose

Aja
Up on the hill
People never stare
They just dont care
Chinese music under banyan trees
Here at the dude ranch above the sea
Aja
When all my dime dancin is through
I run to you
Up on the hill
Theyve got time to burn
Theres no return
Double helix in the sky tonight
Throw out the hardware
Lets do it right
Aja
When all my dime dancin is through
I run to you
Up on the hill
They think Im okay
Or so they say

Any Major Dude Will Tell You
I never seen you looking so bad my funky one
You tell me that your superfine mind has come undone
Chorus:
Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it wont be there no more
Any major dude will tell you
Have you ever seen a squonks tears? well, look at mine
The people on the street have all seen better times
Chorus
I can tell you all I know, the where to go, the what to do
You can try to run but you cant hide from whats inside of you

Dirty Work
Times are hard
Youre afraid to pay the fee
So you find yourself somebody
Who can do the job for free
When you need a bit of lovin
Cause your man is out of town
Thats the time you get me runnin
And you know Ill be around
Chorus:
Im a fool to do your dirty work
Oh yeah
I dont wanna do your dirty work
No more
Im a fool to do your dirty work
Oh yeah
Light the candle
Put the lock upon the door
You have sent the maid home early
Like a thousand times before
Like the castle in its corner
