Dusty Six Shooter

Trade in that dusty six shooter
For a rusted set of strings
Blow into that harmonica boy
Until your soul disconnects from the screams
Ive been waiting oh so long
To hear your voice again
Ive been waiting oh so many years
To see where my story begins
So trade in that wallet of cash
For some free time out in the woods
With a few logs for the campfire and gas
We’ll have all we need and all we should
I wish you were here
So you could experience these things with me
But you’re gone for good, its been 3 long years
I just wish you could see what has become of me
But Its too late
to take things back
and I would have said things differently
It’s too late to have
Thoughts like that because I know
That you’re gone you’re gone from me
Trade in that dusty six shooter
for a rusted set of strings
trade in that old angry attitude
For some peace
And some love
And harmony

Oh I’ve been walking down that dirty road for days
Oh I’ve been walking down that dirty road for days
My baby’s beside me and thats the way its gonna stay Lord knows I ain’t seen the sun for days
Lord knows I ain’t seen the sun for days
I wait for the full moon so I can go out to play
Lord knows I need to change
Lord knows I need to change
I got the devil inside me
Thats why I get on my knees and pray Oh woah get on my knees and pray Oh woah get on my knees and pray
I Pray to the Lord to take these devilish blues away
Oh Lord knows I need to change
Oh Lord knows I need to change
Ive got the devil inside me
That's why I get on knees and pray
Oh woah get on my knees and pray
Oh woah get on my knees and pray
Pray to the Lord take these devilish blues
Pray to the lord take these devilish blues
Pray to the Lord take these devilish blues away

Doctor doctor I think I’m sick
Well I, I need another cigarette
Well these pills
I’m taking just won’t do the trick so Hurry doctor, hurry quickly now
Doctor doctor I need the news
Well I’ve got a case of them smoking blues Well I can
Hardly breath and well, I’ve lost my youth Hope it sucked away the truth, the truth now
Doctor doctor i’m going fast
Well I’m only trying to make this life last But the melancholy from the past
It only keeps me hanging back, back now
Doctor doctor I think I’m sick
Well I, I need another cigarette
Well these pills
I’m taking just won’t do the trick so Hurry doctor, hurry quickly now

Black Hearted Lady

Let me tell you about a girl I know
She’ll leave with furrowed brow
And heart so low
She’ll take everything you have
She’ll steal your lover she’ll steal your friends
She’s a black hearted lady
Black hearted lady don’t you know
Give her a drink she’ll leave you dry Give her a smoke she’ll keep you high Show you things not of this world
For she’s a beast and not a girl
She’s a black hearted lady
Black hearted lady don’t you know
Took all my whisky
Drank all my wine
Seduced my lover
Now I’m still trying to find
That black heart of mine
Black heart of mine oh hey, hey, hey
Let me tell you about that night time tramp
She’ll steal your wallet if you take her for a dance She’ll steal your mind if you take her for a whirl You give her diamonds you give her pearls
She’s a black hearted lady
Black hearted lady don’t you know
Took all all my whisky
Drank all my wine
Seduced my brother now I’m still trying to find That black heart of mine
Black heart of mine
Hey hey hey
Black heart of mine
Black heart of mine
Oh hey hey hey

Cast Me Out

I fell asleep in the sand
thinking of things that drive me crazy baby,
wouldn’t you like to know
I laid awake in your arms
watching my thoughts just drip like rain and softly slowly disappear
I’ve got a pistol to my head but its keeping me well fed I’ve got knife up to my back but its helping me relax
I’ve got 10 problems you ain’t one my lifes a mess but its still fun
at least for today
I need a fix I need it soon
so beat me with your broom and cast me out
I sat and stared at the stars watching the web that binds us closely, folding
you know I wouldn’t hold my breath
I took a walk through your mind Lift back the the veil
see what lies behind
but I wouldn’t like what I find
I’ve got a pistol to my head but its keeping me well fed I’ve got knife up to my back but its helping me relax
I’ve got 10 problems you ain’t one my lifes a mess but its still fun
at least for today
I need a fix I need it soon
so beat me with your broom and cast me out (cats meow)
I need a fix i need it soon
so beat me with your broom and cats meow

Lonesome Traveler

I’m a lonesome traveler just living by myself Take my worries lightly I put em' on shelf Well I
Ain’t got no place to go
Guess i’ll take it slow
Ain’t got no place to be
Living easy and free
I once crossed a great ocean to find a better home
When my ship landed I knew that I was bound to roam
Your possessions mean nothing to me in time they too will fade So let this lonesome traveler be on his way
There’s no turning back now my fate is sealed
Can’t fight the current while the water wets my weary heals
That ocean is far away but I can feel that salty breeze
From the bottom of my heart and in my darkest of dreams
A new dawn is coming a new light to light my way
That old ship is sinking
And with it the dark that lead me astray
Gotta find my bearings north or south or east or west
Gotta walk that solid ground and try my very best
I’m a lonesome traveler just living by myself
Take my worries lightly I put em on shelf
Well I ain’t got no place to go
Guess I’ll take it slow
Ain’t got no place to be Living easy and free

Sorry

You can say your sorry but that won’t help
Talk about your worries or put em' on a shelf
But I can see straight through your crooked ways
Cause you know that level is level and straight is straight
So why do you wait around for something to lift You off the ground
And turn you into something you can’t feel
Get behind the wheel
Now tonights the last time you’ll make a mistake
The ashtrays running off with your heart
She don’t need your bullshit boy
She’s already gone
She don’t need your bullshit boy
She’s already long gone
So why do you wait
For that liquid
To turn you into Something
you can’t feel
While I’m I’m waiting
On my knees for a release
Or A better pill
You can’t say you’re sorry that won’t help
You can’t say you're sorry that won’t help
Been sick for days I’m shakin' now
It’s the same damned cycle you can’t get out
I can say I’ve seen much better days
And all the while you recommend this state
So why do you wait
for that liquid
to turn you into something
you can’t feel
While I’m waiting on my knees for a release
Or a Better pill
You can’t say your sorry that won’t help
You can’t say your sorry that help
