- Ain't No Use in Tryin'
Well I got years of livin'
By and how I choose
Ain't never been a gambler
'Cause I's always bound to lose
My buddies, they drink liquor
Sometimes I'll go along
I got a girl who don't like that at all
- Bloodshot Eyes
It's empty where you were
Just a big gaping hole
now I tried every bottle
every pill that I know
but time baby time
works better than wine
and bloodshot eyes
- Drinkin' in the Morning
Well I work all day
Little darlin'
Work the night time too
And all the money I make
It's in my pocket
It's comin' home to you
But still you're gone
When I get home
- Empire
It's all that I remember a sober night alone
And it took all I had not to call you on the phone
Know that I was made for you
There is nothing I can do about it
I ran outside the bar
Ringing in my ears
And I don't understand
- Never Again
I'll never write another song again
'Cause they all sound the same
And I should be ashamed
And I'm breaking my guitar
As soon as I get home
I'll never have another drink again
Because I woke up on the floor
- Our Town
And you know the sun's settin' fast
And just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye but hold on to your lover
'Cause your heart's bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town
Goodnight
- The Outskirts
Well I turned around in time to see the clouds fade,
running back could only make them stay.
Forward now I run down a winding road,
try to pay back everything that I have ever owed.
And when your money runs, will you buy a friend?
And when your guns don't fire, will that be the end?
With no land left to burn, and nowhere left to run,
- Wait So Long
i could never pretend i don't love you
you could never pretend that i'm your man
thats exactly the way that i want it
thats exactly the way that i am
and you'll call me in the mornin with your troubles
takin it downtown every night
i could never place the stars at night above ya
got my hands on the ground cuz you know i'm right
- Whiskey
Whiskey, won't you come and take my troubles
'Cause I can't seem to do it on my own.
In the morning there is hours and infinity
The starlit evening's come to take me home.
I ain't got a dime in my pocket
And I just stepped on my last cigarette
But there's a bar downtown that'll give me credit
