Hey
Have you seen
A very ugly girl
Well, I’m with her
Hey
Do you know me
Well, I’m kind of white
I’m kind of bitter
I’m really just kind of misunderstood
I love your sister but
I know she’d never treat me good
[Repeat Chorus]
Well we danced in the moonlight
When she told me goodbye
Such an evil mind
Oh yeah
And the world just spits on you like a dog
And if you want something from it
You better hold on to that hog
[Repeat Chorus]
And the world just spits on you like a dog
If you want something from it
You better hold on to that hog
[Repeat Chorus]

Daylight
No one
Sittin’ with a gun
And I’m broke down
Breaking
Breaking in the sun
Hold tight, Virginia
A mile from our home
And it’s Comstock to Norfolk
A mile from our home
Prison held me
Held me through the years
And I’m sorry to ya
For the lies and for the tears
How’s our little one
How’s our precious son
Does he call your man daddy
Does he see him as the one
[Chorus]
I am too small
For you now
I am too small
For you now
Will I find you
Home and not alone
As a new train rides in
On the broken backs of bone
Take my memories
Throw ‘em in the road
Yesterday’s memories
Are tomorrow’s heavy load
[Repeat Chorus]
I am too small
For you in your world
I am too small
For you now

Cold Rain

Cold rain falling
All is dark but storming
The trees split, they scream and crack
And the thunder’s wail breaks their backs
And the cats all hide in mothers’ barn
The sleeping ghosts can still do harm
And you run out to the night
Soaked in the rain yet dressed all white
You fall to your knees and moan
Your always screaming when you’re alone
But baby, I was your lover
Baby, I was your soul
Please don’t find another
It’s just I’ve love you so long
All that glass you held in your hand
Tight as you did, I don’t understand
You let it fall to the cliffs down below
And I watched it shatter and I watched it go
But baby, I was your lover
I held you closer than me
And I can’t remember
How to lose what I can’t even see
Baby, I was your lover
Baby, I was your song
Please don’t find another
It’s just I’ve loved you so long

Moonlight
03:48
|

|
I decided to live forever
Or die trying
As long as I held you
In my arms close you’d stay
At peace with the world
And the love inside you dying
One more dance you’d say
The devil comes today
Only in your life
Do you find peace and quiet
When I’m not around
Around to make you pay
And all you ever wanted
Was life beyond the lie
My thoughts drift away
To you and me someday
When you were alone
The world seemed so quiet
Now your in my arms
And the drums begin to play
The old man in the rain
Stands wrecked beside his bottle
His crutch is whiskey pain
To him it’s all the same
You fell for a long time
The peace inside you dying
You fell for a long time
The roaring in your veins
And I fell for a long time
I don’t want to take you down
And I made you play the game
You are not to blame
