She'd grown up hungry, she'd grown up poor She left her home in Arkansas She wanted to see the deep blue sea She traveled across Tennessee She met a man along the way He introduced himself as Richard Slade Poor Mary thought that she might die When she saw the ocean for the first time She checked into a cheap little place Richard Slade carried in her old suitcase O poor Mary Bellows "I'm a good girl, sir", she said to him I couldn't possibly permit you in Slade tipped his hat and winked his eye And turned away without goodbye She sat on her bed and thought of home With the sea breeze whistling all alone In hope and loneliness she crossed the floor And undid the latch on her front door They found her the next day cuffed to the bed A rag in her mouth and a bullet in her head O poor Mary Bellows So mothers keep your girls at home Don't let them journey all alone Tell them this world is full of danger And to shun the company of strangers O poor Mary Bellows O poor Mary Bellows

Out of time Out of time, out of money Out of time, out of money Honey Out of lust Out of lust, out of trust Out of lust, out of trust For the sky above my head Sun came up through my hands Sun came up with no plan Sun came up Strike up the band Out of grace Out of grace, out of style Out of grace, out of style Can you sit a little while? Out of dreams So it seems The nightmares Will greet me at my bed Shut me up, if you can Shut me up, take my hand Shut me up, be a friend Through a random act of kindness Out of town Out of town for a moment Out of town for a moment I'll be back tomorrow Out of sight, out of nowhere Out of sorrow, out of thin air Out of touch, out of spite Out of loneliness Out of soldiеrs in the moonlight Casting shadows, twirling dancers Across their bodiеs, across the water Across the universe Lift me up by my hand Lift me up if you can Lift me up, be my friend Through a random act of kindness One that's done from blindness Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up Sun came up

So many nights looking to find The good that's buried in this heart of mine Lost in a mirror, caught in a bind Seeing myself in them every time Talk too much or not enough Everything tender always comes out rough Someday I'll find the answer somehow But I'm just working on getting in right now Thought that I saw something in you A glimpse of a story that could've come true Playing my part in an ugly disguise And acting like someone I don't recognize You know I talk too much or not enough Everything tender always comes out rough Someday I'll find the answer somehow But I'm just working on getting in right now Call it bad timing Call it whatever you want But I won't spend another lifetime Getting it wrong Talk too much or not enough Everything tender always comes out rough Someday I'll find the answer somehow But I'm just working on getting in right now You know I talk too much or not enough Everything tender always comes out rough Someday I'll find the answer somehow But I'm just working on getting in right now

Table for one I've got no one I'm waiting on I just pulled into town an hour ago From the straights of Houston To this diner in Ohio I'm just waiting for the bar to open 'Cause I'm a little bit lonely A little bit stoned And I'm ready to go home You don't want to be like me This life it ain't free Always chained to when I leave Been dancing with strangers Sleeping in the van when the shows over I've been driving until I get tired Found peace in the redwoods Lost it 20 miles later There is no telling which way this road bends Been wondering how you've been Hoping things have gotten better Hope you finally settle down in Washington 'Cause I'm a little bit lonely A little bit stoned And I'm ready to go home You don't want to be like me This life it ain't free Always chained to when I leave 'Cause I'm a little bit lonely A little bit stoned And I'm ready to go home You don't want to be like me This life it ain't free Always chained to when I leave

Empty promises and a broken heart Hiding in the bathroom of this bar Crossing out your name in my mind I'll cross out yours now that you've crossed out mine I can't believe I got all made up Put on this dress that you love Only for you to go and pretend like All those years meant nothing So go on and forget Act like we've never met Leave with your new friends How quickly your heart mends The jukebox is playing a sad country song For all the ugly Americans Now I feel like one of them Dancing alone and broken by the freedom Now I'm all dolled up for any drunken fool Who thinks he can replace you Lucky I haven't lost my self-respect Despite all you've done and all that you've said So go on and forget Act like we've never met Leave with your new friends How quickly your heart mends How quickly your heart mends How quickly your heart mends So go on and forget Act like we've never met Leave with your new friends How quickly your heart mends How quickly your heart mends How quickly your heart mends

In the backseat of his car Head out the window, eyes towards the stars Big pink moon through the cypress trees Tells me he loves me and I wanna believe him He's in a Queen t-shirt and baggy jeans When he speaks he says what he means Holds my hand, kisses my cheek Sharing a bottle of something sweet These are the good old days Don't let time slip away These are the good old days Don't let time slip away People like me think feelings are facts Falling in love gives us a heart attack One foot in the future, one in the past Wanna know for sure if it's gonna last These are the good old days Don't let time slip away These are the good old days Don't let time slip away These are the good old days These are the good old days

Here I remind myself what You said over me Here I remind my soul who You are You said You won't relent Won't let go, won't forget Every promise You have whispered to my heart As I wait, as I wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint Rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar This desert holds a song I will sing, on and on You're a river when the ground I walk is dry And You will set the crooked straight Clear my path, make a way You will lead me from the valley to the heights As I wait (as I wait) As I wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint Rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar Creator, keeper Lifebreather Your name is greater than anything I've faced Sustainer, saviour Stronghold breaker Your name is greater than anything I've faced As I wait, as I wait on You I will wait, God, I will wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint I'll rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar To soar I will soar
