Me and my uncle went riding down South Colorado, West Texas bound We stopped over in Santa Fe That being the point just about half way And you know it was the hottest part of the day I took the horses up to the stall Went to the bar-room, ordered drinks for all Three days in the saddle, you know my body hurt It being summer, I took off my shirt And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt West Texas cowboys, they's all around With liquor and money, they're loaded down So soon after pay day, you know it seemed a shame You know my uncle, he starts a friendly game High-Low Jacks and the winner take the hand My uncle starts winning, cowboys got sore One of them called him, and then two more Accused him of cheating, well no it couldn't be I know my uncle, he's as honest as me And I'm as honest as a Denver man can be One of them cowboys, he starts to draw Well I shot him down, Lord, he never saw Shot me another, hot damn he won't grow old In the confusion my uncle grabbed the gold And we high-tailed it down to Mexico Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold I love my uncle, God rest his soul Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know Taught me so well, I grabbed that gold And I left his dead ass there by the side of the road

You know I lost a friend The other day She said, she'd like to stay But she's on her way And I can't believe That she's leaving me And it's been so long goin' on Just can't be Well, it's happened before Well, I never dreamed It could happen with her All the same old scenes And it can't be true What's she trying to do Be the death of me Can't you see, just can't be What went wrong, well, you know I don't understand But it's done and you know I've done all I can So I'll say goodbye To these tears I've cried I will carry on, get along I won't ask why So I'll say goodbye To these tears, I've cried I will carry on, get along I won't ask why

Childhood living is easy to do The things you wanted, I bought them for you Graceless lady, you know who I am You know I can't let you slide through my hands Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away I watched you suffer a dull, aching pain Now you've decided to show me the same No sweeping exits or off-stage lights Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie I had my freedom, but I don't have much time Faith has been broken, tears must be cried Let's do some living after we die Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

Ramona come closer Shut softly your watery eyes The pangs of your sadness Shall pass as your senses will rise But the flowers of the city Thou breath like yet Death like thee at times There's no use in trying To deal with the dying Though I can not explain that in rhymes Your cracked country lips I still wish to kiss Have to be by the touch of your skin Your magnetic movements Still capture the moments I'm in It grieves my heart, love To see you trying To be a part of a world That just don't exist It's all just a scheme, babe A vaccum of dreams That sucks you into Feeling like this I've heard you say many times That your better than no one And no one is better than you If you really believe that You know you have nothing to win And nothing to lose From fixtures and forces and friends Your sorrow does stem They'll hype you and type A make you feel That you got to be just like them I'd forever talk to you But soon my words would turn Into a meaningless ring For deep in my heart There's no help I can bring Everything passes everything changes Just do what you think you should do Then someday maybe Who knows, baby I'll come and be crying to you

It's ten PM and I should have made the road tonight The moon was out and the clouds came in and took it's light My suitcase is over there somehow I just don't care Cause I don't want to be anywhere but right here tonight The rains came down and I should have made an early plane Where I'd rather be if it can't be seen then I can't explain It's so warm in here and I want to hold you near And there is no pain or fear right here tonight With tomorrows dawn I will carry on what I've set aside It's not a matter of my faith or of my pride It just seems so insane to strike out in the rain When it's so easy to remain right here tonight

R. Gibbs-B. Gibbs There's a light, a certain kind of light that never shone on me I want my life to be lived with you, lived with you. There's a way, everybody say, to do each and every little thing But what does it bring if I ain't got you, ain't got? Baby, you don't know what it's like Baby, you don't know what it's like To love somebody, to love somebody the way I love you. In my brain, I see your face again, I know my frame of mind You ain't got to be so blind and I'm blind, so so so very blind. I'm a man, can't you see what I am? I live and breathe for you But what good does it do if I ain't got you, ain't got? Baby, you don't know what it's like Baby, you don't know what it's like To love somebody, to love somebody the way I love you. You don't know what it's like Baby, you don't know what it's like To love somebody, to love somebody the way I love you. You don't know what it's like You don't know what it's like To love somebody ...
