John Wayne Was a Nazi - MDC

It was a moonless night It was an empty sky It was a bad excuse I was the only fool in sight It was a crazy thought A mad man's walk it was It was a moonless night It was an empty sky It was a bad excuse I was the only fool in sight It was a crazy thought A mad man's walk it was I had a wandering' eye She was a better time One twisted heart A black cat's walkin' by She was a crazy thought A mad man's walk she was Oh, no she was She was a long way home Walking broken bone It wasn't wrong or right How deep that knife could go It was crazy thought A mad man's walk it was It was a crazy thought A mad man's walk it was She was a hangman's noose I was the fool I was Oh, I was Yeah baby I was

Sometimes I wish I was a Blue Job, up in the sky. I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly. But, I'll be a Brown Job until I die. With ten years to go in the RLI. The Sergeant that signed me up, Had a face like the back of a truck. A tatoo on each knee, And legs like a Mugla tree. And the Medic that did my test, He left me standing in my vest, And then when I didn't see. He stamped me with a TAP. Sometimes I wish I was a Blue Job, up in the sky. I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly. But, I'll be a Brown Job until I die. With ten years to go in the RLI.

I got a song in my heart Let me start with I'm over you Still it can't hurt me to say very plain . . . I think about you And the laughs and the jokes and the times that I shared with you. I got this feeling for reminiscing Wanted to take that trip down memory lane But what is missing, is that you're not here to sit down with me So I'm thinking these beautiful things all by myself. And what's on my mind is... Back when it was Simple as breathing Just the two of us We were happy together it was Easy to be in Our relationship You remember when You used to say you loved me so Promised one time to never go away And now you're gone The smile that you left me with, is the same smile I've kept on wearing The smile's not so much tied to you More tied to what we spent sharing Simple little things But it was all those simple little things that pleased me the most... Need I remind you 'bout the good times baby There were good times from the start Good times in my heart A heart that never lied Remember back in '99. When we snuck into the neighbor's pool and went for a dip There were good times in the rain Good times everyday Good times Heaven knows Remember that dirty little joke Made us laugh all night long. Back when it was Simple as breathing Just the two of us We were happy together it was Easy to be in Our relationship You remember when You used to say you loved me so Promised one time to never go away And now you're gone Bridge The joy you left me with, nothing stronger since What we did together I ain't felt nothing better since that time Those were the days The nights The hours The minutes The seconds That you were mine Back when it was Simple as breathing Just the two of us We were happy together it was Easy to be in Our relationship You remember when You used to say you loved me so Promised one time to never go away And now you're gone

My grandpa had a rifle that he took from a Vietcong But he pawned it on a guitar when he got back from Saigon Ever now and then I think about him when I set down to play Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Amazing Grace So let the beat roll on, I'm 'bout to get in the zone I've been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own I burn it till it's gone like there ain't nothing wrong I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames (Up in flames) I was born from barbwire, I been stuck out in the fray I'ma shed this mortal coil like a canebrake rattlesnake I'm gonna feast among the righteous, gonna see my friends again I'ma dance outside the gates, hoping like hell they let me in So let the beat roll on, I'm 'bout to get in the zone I've been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own I burn it till it's gone like there ain't nothing wrong I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames (Up in flames) (Oh, yeah) (Oh, yeah) (Oh, yeah) California's burning, it's snowing in the pines They say the world is ending, well, maybe it's about time Have we forgotten about the children? Forgot about love? Have we forgotten about forgiveness from the good Lord up above? So let the beat roll on, I'm 'bout to get in the zone I've been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own I burn it till it's gone like there ain't nothing wrong I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames (Up in flames) Watching the world go up in flames Watching the world go up in flames (Oh, yeah) (Oh, yeah) (Oh, yeah) (Oh, yeah)
