Throw My Body
04:11

|||
Said I’m sorry
Didn’t want to go away
But my love was not true
There was no way I could stay
Tell me deep water
How many lies have you told?
Broken fools are just like me
And the lives you’ve floated out to sea
So, throw my body in the river
Somebody baptize me
Throw my body in the river
Let the water wash me clean
So, throw my body in the river
Won’t the devil let me be?
Cause when my body’s gone
You can sing my songs
Just don’t forget about me
I’m singin’
Ooh, ooh, ahh
Ooh, ooh
Now I went walkin’
Late the other night
With no direction
Nothing left for me to fight
So, baby, tell me
Where does it all end
Soon as the sun comes up
We start all over again
So, throw my body in the river
Somebody baptize me
Throw my body in the river
Let the water wash me clean
So throw my body in the river
Won’t the devil let me be?
Cause when my body’s gone
You can sing my songs
Just don’t forget about me
I’m singin’
I don’t know where this went all wrong
I said my head is aching
And I’ve waited for far too long
So baby tell me
How does our story end?
The mistakes we make, you know
They get worse when we get
Closer to the end
Throw my body in the river
Somebody baptize me
Throw my body in the river
Let the water wash me clean
So, throw my body in the river
Release me from this crazy dream
Cause when my body’s gone
You can sing my songs
Just don’t forget about me
Throw my body in the river, ooh
Throw my body in the river, yeah
Throw my body in the river, yeah
Throw my body in the river, ooh

Good Day
04:30
|
|||
Well, I take what I can get
But I can’t do it alone
The long run was a stone’s throw away
I guess I got this all wrong
Then the good ole days
Now I guess they weren’t so great
But I got caught up
And I got to the party late
Cause it’s a good day to stop this lyin’
Yeah, it’s a good day to say goodbye
Now it’s a good day to keep from dyin’
Oh, hell, it’s a good day to be alive
Oh, alive
Those answers brought us so close to the end
Every conversation ended like it began
Well, the good, the bad, they got so damned mixed up
I guess the light in the dark, sugar, just wasn’t enough
And all those times
That we tried to turn around
Drove us further away
And deep into the ground
But it’s a good day to stop this lyin’
Yeah, it’s a good day to say goodbye
Now it’s a good day to keep from dyin’
Oh, hell, it’s a good day to be alive
Oh, alive
The lyin’
The cheatin’
Lost love
The disbelievin’
The silence that was deafenin’ and defeatin’
Oh, the loss of touch, the thoughts that were misleadin’
I was misleaded
I was misleaded
I was misleaded
I was misleaded
I was misleaded
I was misleaded
But it’s a long dark road
Yeah, it’s a long dark road
Yeah, it’s a long dark road
Yeah, it’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road
Yeah, it’s a long dark road
Yeah, it’s a long dark road
Yeah, it’s a long dark road
It’s a long dark road

Just The Way It Goes
03:51
|
|||
Woke up late again all alone last night
Waitin’ for some love to keep me warm and tight
But you didn’t show
Yeah, I guess that’s just the way it goes
So come down easy on me, baby
Won’t you let me know
If you’re gonna put me down
Won’t you do it soft and slow?
Don’t be cold
Cause I guess that’s just the way it goes, and
I don’t ask questions I don’t need answers to, and
I don’t give no reason to look like a fool
Cause you’re gone like a ghost
Don’t bother leaving a note
I’ll get better, yeah
Cause I guess that’s just the way it goes
Oh, that’s just the way it goes
If ya don’t play nice, child, you’ll be alone in the end
What goes around goes around again
So I’m told
Cause I guess that’s just the way it goes
So now I’m moving through these clouds of gold
Cause you can’t hold me anymore down below
Just let go
Cause I guess that’s just the way it goes, and
I don’t ask questions, I don’t need answers to, and
I don’t give no reason to look like a fool
Cause you’re gone like a ghost
Don’t bother leaving a note
I’ll get better, yeah
Moving on never felt so easy, ooh
When I know, when I know
I can do, I can do
So much better, so much better
Than ya, baby
I don’t ask questions I don’t need answers to, and
I don’t give no reason to look like a fool
Cause you’re gone like a ghost
Don’t bother leaving a note
I’ll get better, yeah
Cause I guess that’s just the way it goes
Oh, that’s just the way it goes
Ooh, that’s just the way it goes, baby
Oh, that’s just the way it goes, and
Ooh

Burn These Blues
03:55
|
|||
Bills due, old shoes
Repo took my Chevy too
White walls, Grey Goose
Empty pockets, case of blues
That’s all, I’m spent
Can’t use love to pay the rent
Went all in playing hearts
Shoulda called misdeal from the start
I just wanna burn it away
I just wanna burn it away
Deviate, war ‘n hate
But all I do is medicate
Two shots, one glass
Three sheets hauling ass
Strike a match, light the flame
I’ve got no one left to blame
But me and that’s ok
Told you so, ain’t cutting it today
I just wanna burn it away
I just wanna burn it away
Light a smoke, clear my head
Fade to black but seeing red
And burn these blues away
It’s such a hollow feeling
Hatin’ the love you’re missing
Does anybody make it out alive?
We tried to compromise
But it’s just more white lies
I think it’s time to say goodbye
I just wanna burn it away
I just wanna burn it away
Light a smoke, clear my head
Fade to black but seeing red
And burn these blues away
Burn these blues away
Oh, burn these blues and
Light a smoke, clear my head
I can’t erase the things we said
But I can burn these blues away

Murphy, he cried while he drank up his wine
Told me about how he found some other guy
With his wife
Janet, she sat next to me at the bar
Told me about her life and how far
To push my heart
Woah, this life, this life ain't easy
Might be your turn this time
Or next life
Frankie, he called me a sweetheart tonight
Maybe tomorrow he’ll find some other dime
It gets him high
Woah, this life, this life ain't easy
Might be your turn this time
Or next life
Ooh, California, didn’t they warn ya?
Makes you come alive
Oh, daisies wilt in the garden
Ladies and gentlemen, losing light

Drinkin’

Sellin’ your soul to the night

Took a Chance
03:48

Fall for me
Though I’m not the man that you thought I’d be
No, don’t you run from me
Home only means something if you’re close to me
So come on home, darlin’
Cause all I got is time
Whoa
You took a chance on me, don’t regret it
You took a chance on me when you fell
You took a chance on me, don’t regret it
You took a chance on me when you
Fell
Fell
Fell
Now, baby, I may not have the heart you saw in me
But, baby, I’m second guessing all of my securities
Oh, the reasons for staying
Are getting harder to find
You took a chance on me, don’t regret it
You took a chance on me when you fell
You took a chance on me, don’t regret it
You took a chance on me when you fell
Oh, yeah, baby
Yeah, when you fell
Now we both know what we’re doin’
Because we put in our time
You took a chance on me, don’t forget it
You took a chance on me when you fell
You took a chance on me, don’t regret it
You took a chance on me when you

Dancin'
04:46
|
|||
Do you remember that day?
Saint Patrick called us to play
The boulevard was a green-colored warzone
Of chaos, desperate souls in disguise
The way you moved caught my eye
Like someone lit up the sky
I couldn’t stop myself walkin’ up to you
The music wrote our story that night
Then you and me we were dancin’
With no one else on the floor
Everybody was watchin’
So we just kept dancing more
Cause they wish they were you
And they wish they were me, yeah
We had our own little party ‘til last call
And somebody asked us to leave
I swear I must’ve been dreamin’
When we woke up on a beach
The waves were singin’ a chorus, for us
So I dared you to join them
You told me right after you
What else was I supposed to do?
I jumped in without hesitation, clothes on
Ran on the sand
Then you and me were dancin’
With no one else on the shore
The stars and moon they were watchin’
So we just kept dancing more
Cause they wish they were you
And they wish they were me, yeah
We made our own little movie ‘til lifeguards
Drove up and asked us to leave
Yeah, you and me we were dancin’
Yeah, you and me we were dancin’
Yeah, you and me we were dancin’
Yeah, you and me we were dancin’
Dancin’
Dancin’
And I never want to stop
Let’s dance like this forever
The music never stops
As long as we’re together
So I’ll dress you up in white
And tell everyone we know
We’ll go dancin’
We’ll go dancin’
With no one else on the floor, dancin’
Everyone will be watchin’, dancin’
So we’ll just keep dancin’ more, dancin’
Cause they wish they were you
And they wish they were me, yeah
We write our own little story and nobody else
That’s the way it should be
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’
Yeah, you and me we’ll go dancin’

King
02:54
|

Well, I got this little girl
And she’s driving me crazy, crazy, outta my mind
When she tells me
“Sugar, I just want it to be you that I’m a lovin’ all the time”
Now I’m wrapped up in her world
And she’s calling me baby, baby, sweet honey pie
I love the way she walks
The way she smiles when she says that she’s mine
Hey, losing my mind now
Sun’s always shining down
Buckling at the sound
The way she says that she wants me to be her king
And I’m goin’ ‘round
With that trumpet sound
Cause I’ve got the crown
Yes, she says that she wants me
To forever reign and always be her king
Mmmm, her king
You can bring her diamond rings and pearls
But her love it ain’t easy
She’ll make you put up a fight
By the time I think I’ve won her
She’s already had me dancing on a line
Now I’m beggin’ on my knee
And I ask her to save me, save me, from myself
I know if I can’t have her then I wouldn’t want anyone else
Losing my mind now
Sun’s always shining down
Buckling at the sound
The way she says that she wants me to be her king
And I’m goin ‘round
With that trumpet sound
Cause I’ve got the crown
Yes, she says that she wants me
To forever reign and always be her king
Oh, her king
Ooh, her king
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you need me too
Or admit me, baby
Because I’m losing my mind now
Sun’s always shining down
Buckling at the sound
The way she says that she wants me to be her king
And I’m goin’ ‘round
With that trumpet sound
Cause I’ve got the crown
Yes, she says that she wants me
To forever reign and always be her king
Oh, her king
Ooh, her king
Yeah, her king
Ooh, her king
Yes, her king
Ooh, her king

Wait now, baby, don't you go away
I'm not moving till you look my way
You got me frozen from so far away, sugar
So far away, now now
And time is on our side
While we ride a wave of love goodbye
Yeah, we’ll wave goodbye
Cause this time
This time it's alright
You know it's not like that shit before me
Ain't causing no pain
Not playing those games
Like you must've seen
This time it's alright
This time just feels right
Said I hope you can see
Damn, baby, I said I hope you can see, yeah, that
We can wake up in the morning, and we’ll take it slow
We’ll go out in the evening, let that freedom flow
I can take you where you need to go, sugar
Where you need to go, go, go, yeah
They say do or die
I say fortify
Oh, I've come to realize, I’ll never say goodbye to you
No, no, I never wanna say goodbye
This time it's alright
You know it's not like that shit before me
Ain't causing no pain
Not playing those games
Like you must've seen
This time it's alright
This time just feels right
Said I hope you can see, damn, baby
Said I hope you can see, yeah
So let me be one that feeds you, yeah, woah
With my daily grind
I wanna shower you with sunshine
I think that you were meant to be mine
This time it's alright
You know it's not like that shit before me
Ain't causing no pain
Not playing those games
Like you must've seen
This time it's alright
This time just feels right

Miles to burn

Cause I’m so far away
I’m leaving it all
If you need me don’t call
Cause I’m so far away, yeah
But they don’t teach you love in those love songs
They don’t talk about it
They don’t give you all that you need
They don’t talk about it
Hearts can only take it for so long
They don’t talk about it
‘fore you’re falling down on your knees
Hey, now, so 90 miles an hour I’m gone
You thought that I was weak but you’re wrong
But I won’t be found crying today
Cause I’m so far away
I’m takin’ this train
Drivin’ my pain
So far away
And I tried to hold on, baby
But you slipped behind
So far away
Now, now, now, now I said my
My lovin’ got tired
From running with fire
So far away, yeah, and now
I’m feelin’ this burn
Oh, when will I learn?
I guess I’m so far away, hey
But they don’t teach you love in those love songs
They don’t talk about it
They don’t give you all that you need
They don’t talk about it
Hearts can only take it for so long
They don’t talk about it
‘fore you’re falling down on your knees
Hey, now, so 90 miles an hour I’m gone
You thought that I was weak but you’re wrong
But I won’t be found crying today, yeah

I Don't Know Why
04:10
|

I don’t know why you made me cry
Oh, but you did
I don’t know why you told me lies
Oh, but you did
Now these days they are feeling so long
What started right is feeling so wrong
Oh, oh
And I just can’t see
What you’ve done to me
Must be losing my mind
You came back to me
With a promise that we’d be
Better in time
Time has gone by
We’ve lived this lie for too long
Oh God, we tried
To see each other’s side
But it’s the same sad old song
I keep holding these dreams in my mind
How did we end up being so blind?
Oh, oh
And I just can’t see
What you’ve done to me
Must be losing my mind
You came back to me
With a promise that we’d be
Better in time
I don’t know why
I don’t know why
You made me cry
You made me
Oh, but you did
I keep holding these dreams in my mind
How did we end up being so blind?
Oh, oh
And I just can’t see
What you’ve done to me
Must be losing my mind
And you came back to me
With a promise that we’d be
Better in time
Oh Lord, I don’t know why
Honey, I don’t know why
Darlin’, I don’t know
Why
Oh, oh

Little Angel
04:09

Little angel, why you fly so low?
Tell of all the things
That your mama didn’t want you to know
Lies and love lost
Broken hearts
Turned to dust
Little angel, tell me who can you trust?
Little angel, why you holding back?
Got your wings tied up
Stopped you in your tracks
Tell me when you plan on coming back
The darkness inside your soul
Was never meant to last
And it’s you, ‘lone against the world
And it’s you, ‘lone against the world
And it’s you, ‘lone against the world
And it’s you alone
You’ve been
Running, trying to catch the sunrise
You got what you need
Stop living through other’s eyes
So long since you’ve seen your own lies
Oh, little angel
It’s time for you to fly
Little angel
With a secret deep inside
I see your head turned down
There’s nowhere left to hide
Well, you’ve been
Running, trying to catch the sunrise
You got what you need
Come and fly now
Stop living through other’s eyes
Come and fly now
So long since you’ve seen your own lies
Oh, little angel
It’s time for you to fly
It’s time for you to fly
Time for you to fly
Time for you to fly
Oh, little angel
It’s time for you to fly

Enough
03:37
|

Been a long, long day
In a long, long week
I’ve been spending life alone
Tryin’ to make my way back to where you are
Tryin’ to make my way back home
Been 40 days since I’ve seen your face
Well, I think I’m losing touch
Livin’ in and out of these hotel rooms
Where the days roll into months
Now I sleep alone without you close
And you know I miss your touch
But if it’s only in our dreams, my love
Well, I hope it’ll be enough
Well, the miles roll by
Towns come, they go
Though I long for days at home
Yeah, but the stage is set and the people wait
For the band to save their souls
Now I sleep alone without you close
And you know I miss your touch
But if it’s only in our dreams, my love
Well, I hope it’ll be enough
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Now I sleep alone without you close
And you know I miss your touch
But if it’s only in our dreams, my love
Well, I hope it’ll be enough

There’s something about the way she loves me
Now I can’t help remember when
There was something about the way she tells me
“Oh, I don’t ever want it to end”
Yeah, there’s something about the way she leaves me
On those cloudy afternoons
Yeah, there’s something about the way she tells me
“You know that it’s me
No, not you”
So mama
Just fly high on into the night
When you hold me
And tell me it’s alright
So mama just fly high on into the night
Cause all that we got
Is just fight or flight
Is just fight or flight
Yeah, there’s something about the way she scolds me
And I can see it in her eyes
Yeah, there’s something about the way she tells me
“Oh, you know that I love you
But baby, goodbye”
So mama
Just fly high on into the night
When you hold me
And tell me it’s alright
I don’t know if what we’re doin’ is wrong or right
Cause all that we got
Is just fight or flight
Oh, is just fight or flight
I said Ooh
Now she sits there
And she tells me the story
Of how it ain’t ever gonna last
But now I stand here
Dumbfounded
Astounded
Maybe this time she ain’t
Ever comin’ back
So mama
Just fly high on into the night
When you leave me
And tell me it’s alright
I don’t know if what we’re doing is wrong or right
Cause all that we got
Is just fight or flight
Oh, is just fight or flight
Yeah, is just fight or flight
Is just fight or flight

Wasn't It Good
03:41
|
|||
Hey, mama don’t be sad
Your little boy ain’t bad
I’ll be back again someday
Yes, I am doing fine but
Just takes a little time
When I’m back again I’ll say
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
I guess it was
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
I guess it was
I guess it was
And now I’m all alone
Sitting far from home
In this God-forsaken place
Yes, I miss all of you
But this is the life I choose
Maybe one day we can say
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
I guess it was
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
I guess it was
I guess it was
Woah, yeah
I wish this world could see, I wish this world could see
What’s in front of me, what’s in front of me
So they can put their swords away
And oh, what this world could be
If you could sing with me, yeah
And maybe we can say
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
Wasn’t it good?
