- Bed of Roses
She had a drive-by childhood
A plastic Jesus on her chest
A mean mean girl
With a certain snake allure
A heart like 16 midnights
And a surgical voice
Keepin' strange for some change
- Dixie Chicken
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp, I met a Southern belle
Well, she took me to the river, where she cast her spell
And in that southern moonlight, she sang a song so well
If you'll be my Dixie chicken, I'll be your Tenessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
- One Love Stand
It's been a one man show that I been runnin'
On a two way street for love
And I see no end to the dead end (dead end)
'Til you come back home
I tried everything to keep remembering
One good woman, one good man
Two shots of happiness in one life span
It takes a one good woman
- Roll Um Easy
Whoa I am just a vagabond, a drifter on the run
the eloquent profanity, it rolls right off my tongue
And I have dined in palaces, drunk wine with kings and queens
But darlin', oh darlin', you're the best thing I ever seen
Won't you roll me easy, oh slow and easy
Take my independence, with no apprehension, no tension
You're a walkin', talkin' paradise, sweet paradise
- Texas Twister
The siren song is strong sometimes on this Texas radio...
They sure do play it hard and fast
While they sell it soft and low
A silky voice she spoke to me from down in San Antone
"It's Ladies Night in Italy, you gentlemen should know"
When I saw that neon sign
Knew just where to go
Her shoulders soft so I pulled off
- Two Trains
In 1966 I found my love
In 1967 I had all there was
And as my time went by, I was satisfied
Until that situation took me by surprise
Now there's two trains runnin' - on that line
One train is me, and the other is a friend of mine
You know it would be all right, be just fine
