.45 Gun 03:35
lyrics
buy track
When I was high she was the sunshine, When she was low I hit the dirt. I found a brand new book of matches, If you play with fire you're gonna get burnt. So don't tell me 'bout no misfortunes, I ain't no fortunate son. I learned my lessons all the hard way, But oh goddamn we had some fun. I ain't trying to change who I am, I love who it is I've become. Running for the door and, I keep reaching back for all of my stuff. She's chasing after me and, She be brandishing a .45 gun. And all that I can do is, Keep my head down and my feet moving on. I ain't trying to change who I am, I love who it is I've become. Running for the door and, I keep reaching back for all of my stuff. She's chasing after me and, She be brandishing a .45 gun. And all that I can do is, Keep my head down and my feet moving on. When I was high she was the sunshine, When she was low I hit the dirt. I can not do this again girl, This is not how it's gonna work.

All Runs Out 03:23
lyrics

The heat of the summer, The stench of the sweat, On your brow, while we dance, Under moon, with a cigarette. And I just can't help myself. Where you gonna run when it all runs outs, Who you gonna call when it's all done now, Where you gonna run when it all runs out, Where you gonna go when your times up now. Clouds roll in and, cover the sky, Make it dark, black it out, While you scream in the night. And I just can't help myself. Where you gonna run when it all runs outs, Who you gonna call when it's all done now, Where you gonna run when it all runs out, Where you gonna go when your times up now. Where you gonna run when it all runs outs, Who you gonna call when it's all done now, Where you gonna run when it all runs out, Where you gonna go when your times up now.

The Truth 04:13
lyrics

Driving eyes closed, doing seventy on 63, Turning the speakers up to let it wash over me, And I don't know how I got so snowed by you. You dont believe in me and I don't believe in you, That's the truth, that's the truth. This place is not your home, Im better off alone, That's the truth, that's the truth. I know your looking for something that just isn't there, I don't owe you anything girl come on now get over it. I'm sorry for the way that I did it but it had to be done. Everything's been better now that you had to leave, I forgot about you girl come on now forget about me, Forget about me. You dont believe in me and I don't believe in you, That's the truth, that's the truth. This place is not your home, Im better off alone, That's the truth, that's the truth. You dont believe in me and I don't believe in you, That's the truth, that's the truth. This place is not your home, Im better off alone, That's the truth, that's the truth.

July Sunrise 03:06
lyrics

I've been sitting here just trying to think of what to say, But I can't find the words my mind just turns up blank. I wanna drop a line but I don't know if it's okay, I contemplate and contemplate cast one out there anyway. And I say hey, yeah, how are you? And she says hey, yeah, how you been? While I've been walking for so long and my feet are hurting don't you know? Feeling kinda high even though I should be low. Its better in the evenings with a six string and long neck beer, It honestly be better if you were standing right here. She said hey, yeah, probably. And I said hey, yeah, come on let's see. I bet you're just as pretty as you were when we were kids, Got them freckles on your face and skin so sun kissed, With your blonde hair flowing free as we watched a July sunrise, And all I want to do right now is get lost in those blue eyes. She said hey, yeah, I'd like that. And I said hey, yeah, how 'bout that, Now how 'bout that.

Without You 04:59
lyrics
buy track
I greet the morning with a pounding head, Fuzzy recollection of where I've been, I fight like hell to keep the contents of my stomache in, These hotel walls all feel like they're spinning again. Shaking off the night before, I get out of bed, I'm up and out the door by 10 am, Drive like crazy just to get the hell up outta this town, I can't promise you much, but I've been missing you around. I know this isn't perfect but nothing ever is, We do what we can about it. Traveling all these highways putting miles on my soul, And I have no doubts about it, I can't spend another night without you. I chase the dawn with a bottle of Jack, When I'm gone they'll be no turning back, She calls me in the evenings just to tell 'bout The day that she's had, I can't help it baby, I got it real bad. I know this isn't perfect but nothing ever is, We do what we can about it. Traveling all these highways putting miles on my soul, And I have no doubts about it, I can't spend another night without you.

Do What I Can 03:31
lyrics
buy track
She grabs my attention, And I can't look away. She might have a spell on me, 'Cause I got it real bad. If I was a gambling man, I'd put all money on her, Even though it's all spent. If I was a better man, I'd give her more than I have, But I can't. So I do what I can. I do what I can. And I'd drive all night, Just to meet you in the morning. And I, I'll try, To bring you the moon. And I'd give up everything, So I can be there when you wake. If I was a gambling man, I'd put all money on her, Even though it's all spent. If I was a better man, I'd give her more than I have, But I can't. So I do what I can. I do what I can. I do what I can. I do what I can.

Like A Glove 04:18
lyrics
buy track
In her town house, in the city. Where we tangled, in the bedsheets. Slept till noon, not a care in the world, Smoking cigarettes. On the bluffs, by the river. I still see her face when I close my eyes, You know I just don't mind. If I'm not careful I could follow her anywhere. To hell and back babe just so I can sit and stare. If I'm not careful then I might just fall in love. But that's okay baby 'cause we fit just like a glove. Laugh the day away, 'round the table. It's good to be alive, it's good to feel alive. God it's been awhile. We could stay like, this forever. Carefree in our ways on a Wednesday night, Or any other day. If I'm not careful I could follow her anywhere. To hell and back babe just so I can sit and stare. If I'm not careful then I might just fall in love. But that's okay baby 'cause we fit just like a glove. If I'm not careful I could follow her anywhere. To hell and back babe just so I can sit and stare. If I'm not careful then I might just fall in love. But that's okay baby 'cause we fit just like a glove. But that's okay baby 'cause we fit just like a glove.

Pear Tree 02:28

She's having nightmares again, I reach out and hold her hand. Brush the hair back from her face, Whisper everything will be okay. I know it's terrifying, to feel like this. You wear you heart on your sleeve, Promise I'll take care of it. We stand so vulnerable, under a wild pear tree. C'est la vie, mon amour. The whole world for you and me. She's having nightmares again, I reach out and hold her hand. Brush the hair back from her face, Whisper everything will be okay. She's having nightmares again, I reach out and hold her hand. Brush the hair back from her face, Whisper everything will be okay. Whisper everything will be okay.

Black Coffee 04:01
lyrics

Black coffee and whiskey, Great sex in the morning, Smudges on her glasses when we kiss. We are so good it hurts, Leave us barely walking, I feel everything I cough. From all these goddamn cigarettes, And all the miles we've yet to spend, Bridging all the spaces in between. Staring at the stars, hundreds of miles apart, Dreaming of each other. Black coffee and whiskey, Everything I'll ever need, Ripped straight from my dreams. It feels so right, it feels so good, Just like we know it should. This feels so right, it feels so good, Just like I know it should.

Sing For Me 04:55
lyrics
buy track
Follow me down the old dirt road, The trees have all bent under the heavy load of snow, We walk for a while just to lose ourselves, Unpacking all our love, taking it from the shelf. Sing for me, your favorite song, Sing it loud, so I can sing along. Lay with me for a little while longer, Laugh with me at all the bad jokes and blunders, 'Cause I'm not long for this world dear, So take my hand, let's get out of here. Sing for me, your favorite song, Sing it loud, so I can sing along. Sing for me, your favorite song, Sing it loud, so I can sing along. We dance together hand in hand running down the dream, We're doing drugs and fucking up and other crazy things, I can't ever do it without you here by my side, So hold me baby, hold me baby, walk me to the light. Sing for me, your favorite song, Sing it loud, so I can sing along.

Bird Dog 03:58

And it's been one hell of a year, I read it in the line on your face, And it's so hard to get back from here, When you're spinning in outer space. And my Father's old bird dog died, And we all move on with our lives. And my father's old bird dog died, But we're still here. And my Father's old bird dog died, And we all move on with our lives. And my father's old bird dog died, But we're still here. And it's been one hell of a year, I read it in the line on your face, And it's so hard to get back from here, When you're spinning in outer space. And my Father's old bird dog died, And we all move on with our lives. And my father's old bird dog died, But we're still here.

Coyotes 03:40
lyrics

There's coyotes in the front yard, Break the silence of the moon. There is murder in the hen house, There was nothing I could do. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Oh no. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Yeah. There's a sinner in the whore house, That no holy man can save. There's a junkie in the courtyard, Passed out and livng far away. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Oh no. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Yeah. Two lovers in the moonlight, Stealing kisses and their clothes. Unassuming in the twilight, Bold and naked in the snow. There's coyotes in the backyard, Hide in the shadows from the moon. Looking for the next one, It could be me, it could be you. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Oh no. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Yeah. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Oh no. Woohoohoohoo woohoohoohoo, Yeah.

Big White Bird 02:48
lyrics

The big white bird that I buried in the dirt, Behind the house up on the hill. Mud on my hands and the blood on my jeans, She's going down like a bitter pill. The summer sun sets and sky burns orange, With promise of the end of times. The storms roll in and the temperatures dip, And we all go back inside
