♫ Come down low
♫ To the ground
♫ Let the mother breathe you down
♫ All these spirits swirling away
♫ Hard to tell the form that they
♫ Take up your arms
♫ Find your heart
♫ Does it know what you'll do
♫ Come and stand side by side
♫ Woman man and the battles at night
♫ Boil that bark
♫ Braid my hair
♫ See that smoke hell if I care
♫ To write all of my lost brothers
♫ Only to burn the letters
♫ So they reach you somewhere
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Said the little one to the bad ways
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Let the fight be for another day
♫ Dare to write all my lost brothers
♫ Only to burn the letters
♫ So they reach you somewhere
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Said the little one to the bad ways
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Let the fight be for another day
♫ And I though that my mind was folding in
♫ And I hoped that it wasn't the rain but just the wind
♫ And he spoke of holy rollers
♫ How they glide across the hall
♫ And he pictured them in carousels
♫ When they were two feet tall
♫ And he wakes up in the eye of a watchmakers dirty glass
♫ And he swims for all the decoys
♫ And the lives that they pass
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Said the little one to the bad ways
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Let the fight be for
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Said the little one to the bad ways
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Let the fight be for
♫ Be gone be gone be gone
♫ Said the little one to the bad ways
♫ Be gone for long til you riddle my throne
♫ Let the fight be for another day
♫ Long hair and longer stride
♫ Skateboard affair with a primal tribe
♫ And your cut off painter pants
♫ Chargin' down the craggy mountains
♫ With our thrift store friends
♫ Who you find so so in love with the falling earth
♫ Who you wake in the middle of the falling night
♫ With the summer playing coy
♫ In the attics of the city night
♫ We talked Corso and the MC5
♫ And you could dance like
♫ We were all alright
♫ And only the wild ones give you something
♫ And never want it back
♫ Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
♫ Only the wild ones are the ones you can never catch
♫ Stars are up now no place to go but everywhere
♫ One I met in the green mountain state
♫ I dropped out and he moved away
♫ Heard he got some land down south
♫ Changed his name to a name the birds could pronounce
♫ And only the wild ones give you something
♫ And never want it back
♫ Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
♫ Only the wild ones are the ones you can never catch
♫ Stars are up now no place to go but everywhere
♫ No place to go but everywhere
♫ And in the city the mayor said
♫ Those who dance are all misled
♫ So you packed your things and moved to the other coast
♫ Said you gonna be like Charlie Rose
♫ And only the wild ones give you something
♫ And never want it back
♫ Oh the riot and rush of the warm night air
♫ Only the wild ones are the ones you can never catch
♫ Stars are up now no place to go but everywhere
♫ Only the wild ones give you something
♫ And never want it back
♫ Oh the riot and rush of the warm night air
♫ Only the wild ones
♫ Are the ones you can never catch stars are up now
♫ No place to go but anywhere
♫ We try to understand
♫ The right to life like fire to the arson
♫ You got it right at last but then the world
♫ Had a different plan and it took it all away
♫ Years and years you fought
♫ To try to light your darkness with a reason
♫ Maybe a woman someday maybe even a child
♫ To hold and help and start over again
♫ And we run and we gun and we die young
♫ And we curse and we crush and we hide
♫ And we fight and we fuck and we make up
♫ And we love and we shove it aside
♫ Years and years you fought
♫ To try to light your darkness with a reason
♫ Maybe a woman someday maybe even a child
♫ To hold and help and start over again
♫ And we run and we gun and we die young
♫ And we curse and we crush and we hide
♫ And we fight and we fuck and we make up
♫ And we love and we shove it aside
♫ Your eyes they shine they shine from somewhere else
♫ I'm going in and out I gotta lie down
♫ Never seen a light like that myself
♫ And we run and we gun and we die young
♫ And we curse and we crush and we hide
♫ And we fight and we fuck and we make up

♫ Aw it's dark outside
♫ I've been trying to get a ride
♫ While my body waits my body waits
♫ America warm my face
♫ I've been trying to turn the page
♫ Once I was a little boy staring at my shoes
♫ You came along and found me in the chicken coop
♫ But time takes over I can't say when
♫ Time takes over may we do it again
♫ Take me to the beachhead let's go over
♫ All of those rocks at the end of the road
♫ And take me down to main street with no clothes on
♫ With our bare feet on the
♫ Painted yellow lines with our shadows far behind us
♫ Broke into that summer school
♫ And fooled around on the infirmary cot
♫ And we can be like all those fairies
♫ Making their rain angels in the eddies
♫ And I have no expectation just an adolescent heart
♫ Ah it's dark outside
♫ I've been trying to get a ride
♫ While my body waits my body waits
♫ America warm my face
♫ I've been trying to turn the page
♫ Once I was a little boy staring at my shoes
♫ You came along and found me in the chicken coop
♫ But time takes over I can't say when
♫ Time takes over may we do it again
♫ Take me to the beachhead let's go over
♫ All of those rocks at the end of the road
♫ Help me down the seawall let's find Marci
♫ See if she got that
♫ Invitation to the movie
♫ The one where the kids break out of juvie
♫ And then by their own admission they go
♫ And turn themselves all in
♫ Just as they get there to the station
♫ The young one wheels and begs the pavement
♫ For brother speed to make arrangements
♫ With the spirits of the night
♫ Take me to the race track let's go bet on
♫ Aw the one that no one expects to win and
♫ Let's bet on the skinny horse
♫ He will surely try the hardest to come in first
♫ I bet you for the winner
♫ They put on some kind of fancy dinner
♫ Let's be like those Philadelphia sisters
♫ That have prayed straight for a hundred years
♫ And I have no expectation just to be here in the present
♫ And behold you for a second before it all goes away
♫ Ahh
♫ Before it all goes away
♫ Ahh
♫ And those painted yellow lines with our shadows far behind
♫ Broke into that summer school
♫ And fooled around on the infirmary cot
♫ And we can be like all those fairies
♫ Making their rain angels in the eddies
♫ And I have no expectation just an adolescent heart
♫ Aw we recognize see it in your eyes
♫ See it in your eyes all the lies of the megaphone
♫ We know who you are we're not very far
♫ We're not very far we're the cop and the criminal
♫ Aw we recognize aw we recognize
♫ See it in your eyes all the lies of the megaphone
♫ We know who you are we know who you are
♫ We're not very far we're the cop and the criminal
♫ Skin the rabbit skin skin the rabbit
♫ There's a lot of people saying that we're grieving
♫ About the track that we're on
♫ Skin the rabbit skin skin the rabbit
♫ Makes you wonder about the faces
♫ And the aces that have crawled up the arm
♫ Skin the rabbit can you turn my gold to wine
♫ Stone to stone the needle and the eye
♫ Oil in the sand gun in every hand
♫ A gun in every hand and we die like the buffalo
♫ Feel it in the dawn won't be very long
♫ Won't be very long in the age of the methadone
♫ Oil in the sand oil in the sand
♫ A gun in every hand and we die like the buffalo

♫ I walk down the road looking for my tribunal
♫ Like Tom and Huck stumbling down
♫ The aisle of their own funeral
♫ Please goddess of the road get me on my way
♫ You see my love just left me so I'm on my own
♫ And my heart's banged up looking for a foster home
♫ The highway moon is getting me dizzy
♫ I see a mirage of Medusa
♫ A top of an Appaloosa what I wouldn't do
♫ To be with you and your caboosa
♫ Whispering to Mr. Beck now who's the real loser
♫ Here come again the midnight Lorry
♫ I think I might be moving along
♫ There's a lot of places I got to get to
♫ I know you're out there but I never even met you
♫ Take me to the land of no worry
♫ And then I'll just keep playing this song
♫ Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
♫ Will you throw me a ride
♫ A pretty young thing ushers me back to the rear
♫ I haven't been many places
♫ And I definitely haven't been here
♫ To think I was just a lonely soul in the cold
♫ With my thumb out now I'm rolling a smoke
♫ And being told to stick my tongue out
♫ We bounced and blared and so did the Lorry
♫ She teased my hair and held me close with a story
♫ Of rag tag visions as the moonlight poured in
♫ Second star to the right and straight on til' morning
♫ Here come again the midnight Lorry
♫ I think I might be moving along
♫ There's a lot of places I got to get to
♫ I know you're out there but I never even met you
♫ Take me to the land of no worry and then
♫ I'll just keep playing this song
♫ Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
♫ Will you throw me a ride
♫ Looking at her face was like looking at the sun
♫ She said you can't ask of everybody
♫ What you don't ask of one
♫ Either way we got today and that's all we may be allowed
♫ I know that if we hold it together
♫ There's real love we can bring about
♫ Here come again the midnight Lorry
♫ I think I might be moving along
♫ There's a lot of places I got to get to
♫ I know you're out there but I never even met you
♫ Take me to the land of no worry
♫ And then I'll just keep playing this song
♫ Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
♫ Will you throw me a ride
♫ Here comes
♫ Here comes
♫ Here comes
♫ Here come again the midnight Lorry
♫ I think I might be moving along
♫ There's a lot of places I got to get to
♫ I know you're out there but I never even met you
♫ Take me to the land of no worry and then
♫ I'll just keep playing this song
♫ Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
♫ Will you throw me a ride
♫ Here come
♫ Here come
♫ Here come
♫ Here come
♫ Here come
♫ Here come
♫ Night after night with the sound and the light
♫ That comes from down below
♫ The street sweepers clean St Augustine
♫ And tired they head for home
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ Holding it all with her hat and her shawl
♫ She sways in the hall above
♫ Combing the room for a piece of the moon
♫ She braces against the wall
♫ Night after night with the sound and the light
♫ She sings and whispers please
♫ Day after day he lies in the way
♫ Of his life that was meant to be
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ She breaks into his dreams
♫ And finds his colors on the floor
♫ Says don't you disappear
♫ Stay awake my dear
♫ 'Cause you can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ You can begin again
♫ Hone you can begin again
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again
♫ You can begin again
♫ Honey you can begin again

♫ It's time to wake up
♫ We're already underway
♫ See the moon in the river chases the train so close
♫ To where we want to be
♫ But keep it tight
♫ Hold your head in
♫ There are eyes on the road that'll do us in
♫ And I can't go back again
♫ 'Cause we don't even need rice like we don't need water
♫ We don't even need eyes we don't even need God
♫ We don't even need peace like we don't need laughter
♫ We don't even need guns we don't even need war
♫ Are you okay
♫ That was a rough one you had the other day
♫ Do you care for a cup of tea
♫ It'll get you high
♫ And where you want to be
♫ But keep it tight
♫ Hold your head in
♫ There are eyes on the road that'll do us in
♫ Keep it tight
♫ Hold your head in
♫ There are eyes on the road that'll do us in
♫ And I can't go back again

♫ We don't even need eyes we don't even need God
♫ We don't even need peace like we don't need laughter
♫ We don't even need guns but they love their war
♫ Pull me up hard like
♫ Like I was your last friend in the world
♫ Let me down easy hurt my arm trying to save that girl
♫ You think that she's alright
♫ You think someone grabbed her knees
♫ You think she gonna make it
♫ Two days to go 'til the river please
♫ Keep it tight
♫ Hold your head in
♫ There are eyes on the road that'll do us in
♫ Keep it tight

♫ We don't even need peace like we don't need laughter
♫ We don't even need guns but they love their war
♫ We don't even need flags like we don't need color
♫ We don't even need lies but the lie's alright
♫ We don't even need roads
♫ I'll see you there after
♫ Faster than the highest wall they'll build
♫ Do you care for a cup of tea
♫ It'll get you high
- [Man] No rice, no water, no lies, no God, no peace,
no laughter.
(chattering)
♫ You'll never believe what I heard just now
♫ Carried by the rain
♫ It was the wind from where all the willows grow
♫ She was yelling your name
♫ Like a bird caught in a curtain
♫ This temporary entanglement may lead to an open sky
♫ Oh you're looking for the perfect pardon
♫ But there ain't gonna be any man anymore
♫ 'Cause if it's windy like in the morning
♫ And we are all just lost at sea
♫ We're gonna fight
♫ For in the end our only right
♫ Is to live and love and work and be
♫ Tell me once again
♫ Said the wind to the fleeing boy
♫ She told him a tale of a man gone wrong
♫ Said keep on running child
♫ Keep on running boy
♫ Like a bird caught in a curtain
♫ Like a bird caught in a curtain
♫ She was always more than certain
♫ That this temporary entanglement may lead to an open sky
♫ Oh you're looking for the perfect pardon
♫ But there ain't gonna be any man anymore
♫ 'Cause if it's windy like in the morning
♫ And we are all just lost at sea
♫ We're gonna fight
♫ For in the end our only right
♫ Is to live and love and work and be
♫ But if it's all the same
♫ I'd Like to go on
♫ And leave the missing mountains to themselves
♫ All the cards that you opened up
♫ Will only tell you which way to not go
♫ Oh you're looking for the perfect pardon
♫ That man that told you that the man he done died
♫ And there ain't gonna be any man anymore
♫ 'Cause if it's windy like in the morning
♫ And we are all just lost at sea
♫ We're gonna fight
♫ For in the end our only right
♫ Is to live and love and work and be
♫ Live and love and work and be
♫ Live and love and work and
♫ Hard times wages gone with the ages
♫ See factory walls are crumbling now
♫ All the coins missing from the fountain
♫ Old brick old pine hewed from trees from another time
♫ Used to hang out at the depot when they came in
♫ Freight trains full of lumber from the mountain
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town see
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town see see see see
♫ My dad since 18 steel plant near main street
♫ Savin' money so he can ask the young waitress
♫ The one with the red hair who's always anxious
♫ Clocked in four kids piled up on the horse hair mattress
♫ 30 years at the forgery working
♫ Got a notice that the factory was closing
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town see
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town
♫ See the money all but left now
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town see see see see
♫ But I'm still here most of us are
♫ There's no happiness here
♫ Except for the kind you can score
♫ Now folks my age dropping like flies
♫ Can't stop once they get a hit of the good life
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town see see see see
♫ Now we're living in a ghost town
♫ See the money all but left now

♫ I never been to London
♫ You never been to Spain
♫ I never been to war you never been to prison
♫ But we never been the same
♫ And after all is said and done
♫ There was so much more to relate
♫ Now the world will never know just what it lost that day
♫ Give me some hot damn give me some birdman
♫ Give me some Proud Mary
♫ The one with Claudia Lennear
♫ Give me that mix tape give me those school days
♫ Give me some hard cider the one we did not mean to make
♫ I was never beaten down like you were
♫ I got to grow up in your wake

♫ Give me some hard cider the one we did not mean to make
♫ In prison there was more drugs than I ever seen
♫ And they let me stay out all night
♫ And trip the starlight til my soul was clean
♫ And when I got out I began my journey to the east
♫ As they were filling you up with pills
♫ Give me some hot damn give me some birdman
♫ Give me some Proud Mary
♫ The one with Claudia Lennear
♫ Give me that mix tape give me those school days
♫ Give me some hard cider the one we did not mean to make
♫ Give me that long skate give me that heartache
♫ Give me some Proud Mary the one with Claudia Lennear
♫ Give me that penalty kill give me some big chill
♫ You be Dignan Redding I'll be Atticus Cobain
