Driftwood - Doomsday Outlaw

Everything is open Nothing is set in stone Rivers turn to ocean Oceans tide you home Home is where the heart is But your heart had to roam Drifting over bridges Never to return Watching bridges burn You're driftwood, floating underwater Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces Just driftwood, hollow and of no use Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you Nobody is an island Everyone has to go Pillars turn to butter Butterflying low Low is where your heart is But your heart has to grow Drifting under bridges Never with the flow And you really didn't think it would happen But it really is the end of the line So I'm sorry that you turned to driftwood But you've been drifting for a long, long time Everywhere there's trouble Nowhere's safe to go Pushes turn to shovels Shoveling the snow Frozen, you have chosen The path you wish to go Drifting now forever And forever more Until you reach your shore You're driftwood, floating underwater Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces Just driftwood, hollow and of no use Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you And you really didn't think it would happen But it really is the end of the line So I'm sorry that you turned to driftwood But you've been drifting for a long, long time You've been drifting for a long, long time You've been drifting for a long, long Drifting for a long, long time

The Big Bang The ultimate hero of low frequency The divine intergalactical bass drum Connecting the tribes of our solar systems If we could communicate from our tiny piece Of solar driftwood into another galaxy What would we say? We can send out pictures, symbols Chemical formulas or language The magic of music is a sign of consciousness That could be understood on far-flung worlds Millions of light years from our horizon Music is an interstellar language From a highly insignificant planet One of nine in our system Which sails through time and space 'Til the next one The next inevitable Big Bang (Bang) (Bang) (Bang) (Bang)

The war was over and the spirit was broken The hills were smokin' as the men withdrew We stood on the cliffs Oh, and watched the ships Slowly sinking to their rendezvous They signed a treaty and our homes were taken Loved ones forsaken They didn't give a damn Try'n' to raise a family End up the enemy Over what went down on the plains of Abraham Acadian driftwood Gypsy tail wind They call my home the land of snow Canadian cold front movin' in What a way to ride Oh, what a way to go Then some returned to the motherland The high command had them cast away And some stayed on to finish what they started They never parted They're just built that way We had kin livin' south of the border They're a little older and they've been around They wrote a letter life is a whole lot better So pull up your stakes, children and come on down Acadian driftwood Gypsy tail wind They call my home, the land of snow Canadian coldfront, movin' in What a way to ride, oh what a way to go Fifteen under zero when the day became a threat My clothes were wet and I was drenched to the bone Been out ice fishing, too much repetition Make a man wanna leave the only home he's known Sailed out of the gulf headin' for Saint Pierre Nothin' to declare All we had was gone Broke down along the coast But what hurt the most When the people there said "You better keep movin' on" Acadian driftwood Gypsy tail wind They call my home, the land of snow Canadian coldfront, movin' in What a way to ride, oh what a way to go Everlasting summer filled with ill-content This government had us walkin' in chains This isn't my turf This ain't my season Can't think of one good reason to remain We worked in the sugar fields up from New Orleans It was ever green up until the floods You could call it an omen Points ya where you're goin' Set my compass north I got winter in my blood Acadian driftwood Gypsy tail wind They call my home the land of snow Canadian cold front movin' in What a way to ride Ah, what a way to go

"Driftwood" Just like the driftwood of a dream Left of the seashore of sleep Just like the words that wouldn't rhyme Lost in the desert of time Time waits for no one at all No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I don't remember what was said In the confusion that night I only know what's on my mind What's in the future we will decide Time waits for no one at all No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I've shattered the illusion Of fortune and of fame But darling now I know you Life could never be the same Oh no... don't leave me driftwood On the shore Time waits for no one my love No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I've shattered the illusion Of forture and of fame I'm waking up I'm reaching up I'm getting up from this game Oh no... don't leave me driftwood On the shore Oh no... don't, don't leave me driftwood On the shore...

I am an outlaw, I was born an outlaw's son The highway is my legacy On the highway I will run In one hand I've a Bible In the other I've got a gun Well, don' you know me I'm the man who won Woman don't try to love me Don't try to understand A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man First left my woman, it was down in Santa Fe Headed for Oklahoma, I was ridin' night and day All of my friends are strangers They quickly come and go And all my love's in danger 'Cause I steal hearts and souls Woman, don't try to love me Don't try to understand A life upon The road is the life of an outlaw man Oo... Woman, don't try to love me Don't try to understand A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man Some me call me Abel Some men call me Cain Some men call me sinner, Lord Some men call me saint Some say there's a Jesus Some men say there ain't When you got no life to lose Then there's nothin' left to gain Outlaw man Outlaw man
