Cowboy's Lament

She's singing all the saddest songs that she knows how to play along
In my head a voice rings out
All alone, who cares to shout
No one sees my cry
No one cares about her like I do since we were 17
She don't know me at all
And I don't what I'll do if she calls

He thinks that he has found an answer to all the problems that he starts
He thinks it's all his power flowing from in the garden with his name
He stands up to me open always
his hands up pointing, straight-up holy
And who does he see
And oh he don't see me
He sees his face in the clouds, for he has gone to that wooden house
That wooden house he built his way
In the clouds on the clearest of days
It's a one-room haven
His face unshaven
The wood stacked neatly
His mountain treaty
Coffee, flour, jars of sweet tea
Listen closely, birds are chirping
in the rafters nests bring laughter
To his bedside, under deerhides
He wakes up early, his eyes filled with dew
Those aren't tears though, they're promises he means to keep
One by one, they fall down his cheek
He wakes up early, his eyes filled with you
Those aren't tears though, they're promises he means to keep
One by one, they fall down his cheek
When they're empty he lays down
When they're empty he don't make a sound
He's the only man in his town
And you're the only woman he has ever found
With eyes that color brown

My Red Dog
06:19
|

I'm done waiting Lord, for my red dog
He ran away from me yesterday
He warms my red bones
Oh I'll be waiting the rest of my days
For that dog has gone away
That dog has gone away
I'm done praying Lord, for better luck
I pray every night and day
for good to come my way, but I just end up down
Oh i don't know
who
I am anymore
Since you left girl,
my days are a chore
I'm done picking Lord,
On my guitar, singing out my heart
I write songs about my car and driving out West real far
so I can keep my
head
quiet
till I am dead
Please sing with me and pick a key
I'll play for free
No, money don't bind me
I'm done driving Lord, my beat up truck
The one with the bad, bad luck
I find peace inside, when I go out for a ride
I'll pick you up in five
Somedays I'm driving across the land
I see my ending on the
Horizon
Ending on the horizon
Ending on the horizon
Ending on the horizon
Ending on the horizon

Blue Skies (up ahead)
03:24
|

Blue skies, up ahead
Blue skies, sun is read
Rain came, now it's gone
I got
Blue skies, up ahead
Rain washed down the valley
took me from my family
now I walk on and wonder when I'll feel my mother's arms holding me again
My girl she writes me letters
Says she loves me always and ever
Now I walk on and sing her name
She's my sweet tea, my Katie Mae
Warm breeze wakes me up early
sings me a mountain melody
Californ-i-a I wish you well
will I return-t-ya?
Only time will tell

Drunk and Hardly There
05:09

When you walk into my room all covered in red
Your eyes shoot me glances that hint to my bed
I put on a record, your favorite song
And we dance, and we dance to the fuse of this bomb
We walk and we sing about nothing at all
our minds are other places that no one can recall
the trees and the moonlight are our only company
but if you listen carefully you can hear the melody
and I know you won't be here in the morning when i wake
and i know you won't sleep here till the sunrise starts to breaks
and i know that you love me but the signs they point away
so i try and i try to live in yesterday
if i kiss you too softly when it rains
if i hold you too tightly through your games
and if i walk away slowly and you don't care if i'm gone
then i won't bother to care when you fall and done me wrong
what good is it to call you when i'm drunk and hardly there
you laugh and you amuse me like a play that can't be shared
but when you lie against me our bodies learned to rhyme
and i smile to the highest of the high
