AIN'T GOING DOWN THIS TIMEI've been laying low
Living in the shadows
Spending time alone
Conversations with the wall
Hanging on
I'm just trying to matter
And I remain
All Those TomorrowsI remember perfume in the darkness
???? girls in the room
I will never forget the way you danced for me
And the white gown underneath the moon
Promises made
Hard to keep
All those tomorrows
As The Crow Flies"As The Crow Flies"
As the crow flies baby
And I ain't so far from you
As the crow flies baby
And I ain't so far from you
Well I don't have wings
Backwoods Preacher ManWay down in the country
Back in the Arkansas woods
There's a man there working for Jesus
Tryin' to do some good
He don't have no fancy building
Just a big ol' raggin' tent
And the people who come to see him
Bi Yo RhythmThe moss hangs like witches hair from the big oak tree
And from across the swamp there comes riding on the breeze
The sound -- the sound -- Bi-Yo rhythm -- Bi-Yo rhythm
The rooster is born a fighter
Wears those surgeon blades on his legs
Hot blood, cold eyes
Headed for an early grave
He moves -- he moves with the sound
Cant Go Back HomePacking my suitcase, tan boots
Slip out the back door and nothing to loose
Full moon rising out on the road
Ain't carrying nothing but the heavy load
Turn in lose of the ties that bind
Feeling turmol in my mind
But I can't look back, these times are gone
Closer to the TruthA strong instinct for survival
Romantically insane
Moving soft along the edge of time
Like a panther in the rain
Manipulated rebels
With a total disregard for the rules
When pride comes tumbling off the great white stallion
Cold FingersI GOT COLD FINGERS
I got cold fingers.....and a guitar in my hand.....
A song down in my soul....I hope somebody understands....
Sometimes the heart is heavy and the courage gone...
Do You Have A Garter BeltLove the way you wear you hair down long
Like the way your voice sounds on the telephone
You know you're looking sexy in tight blue jeans
But there's one thing I got to ask you please
Do you have a garter belt
Would you wear stockings
Do you have a garter belt
Good In BluesThere's a cold wind blowing
Downtown tonight
Oh, I'm all done
Walking around, I don't feel right
I'm so used to feeling warm
Having you hanging on my arm
I can't believe you just cut me loose
High Sheriff Of Calhoun ParrishIt was said of the sheriff of Calhoun Parrish
Not to ever touch his daughter Annalee
For to look at her with a lustful eye were certain
To get you time in the penitentiary
It was true she was quite voluptious
And it was true she had eyes for me
Then one night at a dance she walked up to me
I Get Off On ItI GET OFF ON IT
(Tony Joe White and Le Ann White)
I met a pretty girl who really turned me on
But we didn't make it very far
It's hard to make love to a lady
When she's munching on a candy bar
And I couldn't help but say
I Just Walked AwayI walked out of your apartment
I left you sleeping on your bed
I won't have to look back over my shoulder
But I did not turn my head
We had a good arrangement, yes, we did
But now I felt the need to move
But things had not worked out like I planned
I Want To Be With YouYou light up a room the moment you walk in
You could break a heart without even knowin'
Just in the way you smile the way you move
You say hello I want to be with you
And when I feel your warm embrace you make it seem like yesterday
Touchin' in that special way lovers do
Just when I was gettin' use to goodbye you walk right back into my life
Main SqueezeWant to be your main squeeze, baby
Want to be your only love
Want to be your main squeeze, baby
Want to be your only love
When you close your eyes at night
Want to be the one you're dreaming of
Want to be your main squeeze, baby
Polk Salad AnnieIf some of ya'll never been down South too much...
I'm gonna tell you a little bit about this, so that you'll understand
What I'm talking about
Down there we have a plant that grows out in the
woods and the fields,
looks somethin' like a turnip green.
Everybody calls it Polk salad. Polk salad.
Used to know a girl that lived down there and
Rainy Night In Georgia Hoverin' by my suitcase
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
Heavy rain fallin'
Seems I hear your voice a callin', it's all right
Rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia
Oh, it is rainin' all over the world

Steamy Windows супер песняSteamy Windows
I WAS THINKING ABOUT PARKING THE OTHER NIGHT
WE WAS OUT ON THE BACK ROAD
ME AND MY WOMAN WAS JUST GETTIN' RIGHT
OUR SYSTEMS ON OVERLOAD
THE RADIO BLASTING IN THE FRONT SEAT
TURNING OUT THE MUSIC FINE
Swamp RapUngr, now I don't move too fast
And my talk is kind o' slow
I'm from the swamps and I like to stomp
To the Cotton-Eyed-Joe
Now I work hard all week
When it comes Saturday night
I go downtown and cruise around
Takin' the Midnight TrainTaking the midnight train
Taking the midnight train
I can't stand this pain
Just can't stand this pain
To have somebody hurt me for no reason
For no cause, for no cause
The Coldness Of The ChainI said goodbye to the cotton patches left my sack out in the field
Caught a midnight ride down to Natchez under the hill
Fell in with some bad companions with no regard for the law
We were under the impression we was above it all
There were high times but the truth was plain
We were one step from the coldness of the chain
My daddy was a quiet person he was a farmer all his life
The Guitar Don't LieHe sits all alone playing his guitar
Out in the back of a little cafe
And no one seems to hear so he closes his eyes
And just lets the music take him away
Singing songs of love, songs of broken hearts
And he’s worn out his luck and his last pair of jeans
But you keep going on when you’re living on dreams
Undercover Agent For The BluesShe was my lover, she was working undercover
The fellow knew all of the moves
She really had me romping, bare footing stomping
She just kept igniting my fuse
She was blinded by the blackness of my long silk stocking
She would rock me with an optical illusion
And this ain't how I thought it'd be
She just kept on keeping me in a state of total confusion
Way Down SouthI was born and raised on a little ol' farm
Shotgun house down by the swamp
Work was hard and times were kinda rough
But we just kept on scuffling and hanging tough
The one thing in our lives that kept our spirits high
We could let the music out
And it's alright baby, we boogie way down south
Who You Gonna Hoodoo NowCoffee skin, little bit of cream
Golden eyes with a touch of green
High cheekbone, kinda tall
You won't think twice if you think at all
She like a panther on the prowl
Who you gonna hoodoo now?
