Only Good At Leaving
Im'a buy an old car
paint it blue or black
gonna break the rear view
to hell with looking back
don't know what they told you
or what you came here for
but I'm only good at leaving
not at letting go
On some lonesome highway
playing lonely songs
after all the sane ones
have come and gone
All you god damn good girls
are the hardest to leave
but if my hearts not in it
what could you get from me?
Wrapped around a finger
that's wrapped around a gun
fair's my favorite curse word
easy with the gloves
don't know what they told you
but truth ain't good or bad
it's hard letting go of
what you never had

Someones Side of Forever
Going south baby
I ain't stopping till the coast tonight
Like a storm chaser
I live to watch the lighting strike
We could play it careful
I think you know I'd rather fold
they're all angels coming
and devils when you let them go
But you were like my favorite one
Live to watch you come undone
dancing in the fading light
on someones side of forever I
I'm the dive bar neon
if it's all the same to you I shine
Like a punched out boxer
who still thinks he's in his prime
Love my dark horses
I'ma bet it right across the board
A single engine pilot
I'll get it right or die alone
But you were like my saving grace
my ticket right out of this place
the fight I really thought was gone
keep telling me I'm not alone
all these revelations
I hear your voice
stay with me on someones side
all these revelations
I hear your voice
you don't have a choice do I?

Lost and Lonely
02:27

Should have been a way to know
Cause I don’t say it so
Stay with me tonight
If only I could break your heart
Tear the string that pulls apart
Force the easy lie
Cause I’ve been lost and lonely
Baby I
I been waiting patient
Show no sign
Just a word before you
Up and roll
Learning all the ways to go
Spring and winter autumn too
I don’t want to play the blues
Heavy on my mind
Justice like a paramour
Here tonight and gone before
the break of morning light

Born To Be Outlaws
Whisper soft sweet and low
don't know where we could go
heard Carolina's pretty
along the coast
But I'm too drunk to tell
you still buy what I sell
setting fires just to watch
something burn
1 in 6 , 1 in 7
are we betting
or guessing
we were born to be outlaws
rolling stones
These four wheels are turning
the midnight is burning
we'll be a tough act to follow
when were gone
Whisper soft sweet and high
in the hotel tonight
pay in cash and give them fake names
so no one knows
That we might really mean it
is seeing believing
cause I can't get past your memory
or shake your ghost

When My Baby Plays the Blues
Close your eyes and memorize the heartbeat
Rise and fall like waves off in the night
If it ain’t ours it’s still there for the taking
Never do right
Desperado midnight sky and roll on
They can’t ask for what you never had
Shakedown kids with reckless left abandoned
Moments like this
And I ain’t ever been one for
Long goodbyes or dancing
I’m the kind that’s gonna smoke
Gonna drink it off my mind
When my baby plays the blues I shiver
Cause I’m not sure what ever makes it right
A town without a queen I know you’re lonesome
A violin sings songs like falling rain
Between the smoke rings double shots and whispers
I hear your name

Sweetheart Loaded Gun
03:26
|

Dollar too short
She never loved me
But we would dance like
Summers gone
With this eight ball
Rolling beside me
Corner pocket
Just like home
So hit the road boys
For guts and glory
Hold your mic
For fake applause
Dollar too short
The way you loved me
Oh my sweetheart
Loaded gun
It’s like thunder in the heartland
The less I know
And I’m betting on the bigger man
I never was
All these new boys
Out playing country
Fancy haircuts
No guitars
Mix the steel out
Put in the fake drums
Turn your mind off
Sing along
Cause the honest
It isn’t pretty
And the unsure
Won’t sell at all
Hit the road boys
No one listens
Hold your mic well
No one does

Summer Boys

Summer Boys
Hopped up on that rolling stone
when I was 17
tried to smoke it all that night
but we were way too green
had my head way up in those clouds
hands on that guitar
they said you'll give up one day
lord knows I won't
We were like summer boys
gone too soon
You think you don't ask for much
you always do
Buried in a shallow grave
under wild skies
Say what you came to say
just don't ask why
I hopped up on that northern rail
when I was 22
running from a broken heart
and the boys in blue
all the way from Louisville
to my head tonight
cause if your gonna do it wrong
better do it right

Young Broke and Stoned
03:37
|

Know a thing about the big wheel
100 proof
Like the walls that tired to hold me
down in Baton Rouge
When your messing with the wrong one
better take your time
When your messing with a wild one
your raising blinds
Oh I'll never go
full of regret wise and old
I wanna die young broke and stoned
one side of the law and both of the gun
call me midnight rider call her roadhouse queen
cause shes hot as Vegas and every bit as mean
We were great liars
slick talking with the rye
young broke and stoned
that's how I wanna die
Used to rob the freight trains
in Santa Fe
Bloody tracks and hard hearts
but we were paid
Living on cocaine
expensive girls
But it was all ours
this fallen world
Sit back down I'll let it slide
cause you don't want my fighting side

Goodnight Chicago

Goodnight Chicago
The talk is cheap as
the drinks were drinking
but were both thinking
the same thing
That were tired
of feeling borrowed
sold for less
given away
I need you
more than I want to
so I thank god
you feel the same
Leave this rundown bar
trade it for some stars
we pray won't fade
And its goodnight Chicago
better move on down the line
I'm headed west to Denver
and you know I'd make you mine
if it was any other time or any other place
you know I'd trade the road
for the look on your face
I can't wait
to wait my turn
to toss and turn
to feed the flame
But shes like cheap whiskey
high for tonight
tomorrow stings
I hate that
I almost love you
it kills me
how alive I feel
I'm pretty sure
their bluffing
but I'm too
broke to deal

Two Engines and a Plan

Two Engines and a Plan
We were in the mountains drinking
fire from her head to toe
smoking what they grew last summer
skiing when the tourists don't
She felt like moving on to Denver
I said you don't have to go
we're all on a road to nowhere
might as well take it slow
Its never gonna feel like you girl
it's never gonna burn that bright
can't forget the way your rocked me
rolling through the sweetest night
She was California dreaming
found her a producer man
never got to see the ocean
too busy making plans
I was still a desperado
four piece and on the road
head full of wild horses
never gonna tame them all
Time and time around sunset
think why we had to end
imagine where you are
If you hadn't slipped away
on that cold Denver
if I had seen that car
Up in gold rush Alaska
a man can still be a man
flying out across the brooks range
with two engines and plan

Whiskey and Smoke
03:32
|
|||
Echo in the night
reckless as they come
you're living life
like the west wasn't won
whiskey and the smoke
no closing time
a voice on the wind
thunder in the night
Remember when you said
I'm never gonna leave your side
did you really mean it
or was it the sweetest lie
a song could take you back
a song to make you shiver/shake
a song could bring life
when the world takes it all away
Remember when you said
you drew the lines just to cross
did you really mean it
or was it all for the naught
start where the world ends
a kiss up on your collarbone
start where the world ends
then Im going take it low

How Many Times

How many times my baby
Are you going let me know?
This town will drive you crazy
Steady as a centerfold
I don’t ever want to miss her
But I do all the time
This place was made for gamblers
Drifters and delta queens
Don’t want the way they want you
Don’t like the way they dream
How many times my baby
Are you gonna love like you lie?
Like New Orleans
On and on
Mind up made up on the fray
17
lost and gone
You been earning the name
Lay like a constellation
Scattered out across the sky
We got a thing for mercy
Those without a reason why
How many times my lady
Are you gonna call every bluff
This place was made for roughnecks
Jokers and Maybelline
Can’t take the way they hold you
Can’t take the way they bleed
How many times my baby
Are you gonna love out of spite?
