Walls

Saturday, January 28th, 2012

You follow your feelings, you follow your dreams
You follow the leader into the trees
And what’s in there waiting, neither one of us knows
You gotta keep one eye open the further you go
You never dreamed you’d go down on one knee, but now
Who could have seen, you’d be so hard to please somehow
You feel like a poor...

COME ON DOWN TO MY HOUSE

Thursday, October 27th, 2011

Come on down to my house
Come on down to my house
I’ll bet your ass you have a real good time
Come on down to my house

Well bring your baby sister
Bring your baby sister
It’s ages since I kissed her
Come on down to my house

Bring your baby sister
Bring your baby sister
Ooh how I missed her
Come...

Time to Move On

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

It’s time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It’s time to move on, it’ s time to get going

Broken skyline, movin’ through the airport
She’s an honest defector
Conscientious objector
Now her own protector

Broken...

AIN’T LOVE STRANGE

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

Wel l, it can get you in the back boy
Or you can lie around in roses
Or maybe walk around wonderin’
You know, goin’ through the motions

Hey ain’t love strange?
Hey ain’t love strange?
Boy talk about changes
Ain’t love strange?

‘Cause it can make you string barb-wire
Around...

Counting on You

Thursday, February 10th, 2011

I want you to be my little lover
I want you to be my power glide
Oh, oh, oh, little girl, don’t misunderstand me
Cuz there’s a rumor going ’round
Somebody’s gonna let me down
And I don’t know what it’s all about
Or if it’s true
I’m counting...

HERE COMES MY GIRL

Thursday, January 20th, 2011

You know , sometimes, I don’t know why,
But this old town just seems so hopeless
I ain’t really sure, but it seems I remember the good times
Were just a little bit more in focus

But when she puts her arms around me,
I can, somehow, rise ab ove it
Yeah man, when I got that little girl standing right by my side,

Into the Great Wide Open

Friday, January 7th, 2011

Eddie waited till he finished high school
He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo
He met a girl out there with a tattoo too
The future was wide open

They moved into a place they both could afford
He found a nightclub he could work at the door
She had a guitar and she taught him some chords
The sky was the limit

Into...

FEEL A WHOLE LOT BETTER

Thursday, December 23rd, 2010

The reason why,
Oh I can’t say
I had to let you go babe,
And right away
After what you did,
I can’t stay on

And I’ll probably feel a whole lot better
When you’re gone

Baby for a long time,
You had me believe
That your love was all mine,
And that’s the way it would...

Rebels

Sunday, November 21st, 2010

Honey don’t walk out I’m too drunk to follow
You know you won’t feel this way tomorrow
Well, maybe I’m a little rough around the edges
Inside a little hollow
I get faced with some things sometimes
That are so hard to swallow
Hey hey hey!

I was born a rebel
Down in Dixie on a Sunday morning...

A ONE STORY TOWN

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

I’m for standin’ up, I’m for breakin’ free
I don’t want fate handed down to me
Yeah I’m for movin’ on, try another town
Time ain’t changin’ nothin’, take a look around

Oh, I’m lost in a one story town
Where everything’s close to the ground
Yeah the same...
