Jezebel

I was taking a ride across the water on the river Styx,
Saw a tempting little green-eyed creature. She looked about twenty-six.
She said, “How’d you like to you and I jump ship? I know these waters well.”
I said, “What the hell do they call you?” She said, “’Round there I’m Jezebel.”
Jezebel, Jezebel,
Pretty little demon from Hell,
She’ll steal your heart and your soul for to sell,
Keep away from that girl, Jezebel
We jumped clear into the water, icy, black, and still,
Rippling reflections of the moonlight, soaking up that Sin.
Now one of them souls overtook me, I grabbed a-hold of Jezebel,
And we made love on the shores of the river while the waves jumped up and fell.
Jezebel, Jezebel,
Pretty little demon from Hell,
She’ll steal your heart and your soul for to sell,
Keep away from that girl, Jezebel
Night turned into day, days turned into weeks,
I breathed her in like hot smoke and I held her in my sleep.
Fell to every order that my Jezebel did speak,
And I gave myself to her for a chance to feel her heat.
Jezebel, Jezebel,
Pretty little demon from Hell,
She’ll steal your heart and your soul for to sell,
Keep away from that girl,
Keep away from that woman,
Keep away from my woman,
Keep away

Girls of the City

The pink skies of Montana give a cowboy a lonely heart,
And the starlight in Wyoming makes him wish his lady weren't so far.
It’s lonely driving cattle from Missouri east to Tennessee,
But every outlaw knows just where to go when he needs a little company.
Pour yourself another shot of booze. Relax, sit back and watch our dandy demimonde revue,
I think we got it, ooh I think we got it, a charming little partner just right for you.
Girls of the city, doves far as you can see,
Painted and frilly, but love here don’t come for free.
Josie, she’s a jester. She’ll make you laugh until you cry,
And Clarabelle, she’s slow as hell, then she’s done before you blink an eye.
Lucy, she’s a floozy, she’ll shake her hips into the night,
But when Mary-Anne strikes up the band you know everybody’s feeling right.
Strike a match and light the kerosene. Education, hesitation, don’t you know that they can smell your fear?
I think you got it, ooh I think you got it. We always love to see a new face ‘round here.
Girls of the city, doves far as you can see,
Painted and frilly, but love here don’t come for free.
Blood on the table, screams in the room next door,
She’s willing and able, leave the cash in the bureau drawer.

Tired of It

Rise to the morning, start to breathe,
Remember again that you threatened to leave.
Got a woman I’m crazy for,
I come to find that you expected more.
And I’m getting really tired of it, I’m getting really tired of it,
I’m getting really tired, baby.
I’m getting really tired of it, I’m getting really tired of it,
I’m getting really tired, baby.
I’ve got a sickness, woman, that you gave to me.
Just gotta face it, we can’t agree.
Spit your poison, you’ve got jagged words.
Despite my defenses, you remain undeterred.
And I’m getting really tired of it, I’m getting really tired of it,
I’m getting really tired, baby.
I’m getting really tired of it, I’m getting really tired of it,
I’m getting really tired, baby.
You put me down for the last time baby,
Made me feel like a part-time slave.
Made me feel like a god damn fool.
I must admit, I was ashamed of you.
Think it’s time that I set me free,
Find a woman who’ll be good to me.
Oh, don’t you try to make me feel.
Gonna get rid of this frustration and find something real.
‘Cause you’re gonna make me sleep for a whole damn year.
And I’m getting really tired of it, I’m getting really tired of it,
I’m getting really tired, baby.
I’m getting really tired of it, I’m getting really tired of it,
I’m getting really tired, baby.
Tired of being your fool.

I have seen you from afar, I only know your name,
We had spoken from a distance, now I’ll never be the same.
Take a chance on this life, never know what you’ll gain
Wisdom I search for, dreams and light within,
Sunrise on the horizon, crisp breeze bights the skin
Time is not your friend, the day will never end,
Close your eyes, hours gone.
Who collects the seconds? Who fills the months passed
Step outside, minutes lost.
Minutes lost.
I have seen you from afar, I only know your name,
We had spoken from a distance, now I’ll never be the same.
Never be the same,
Never be the same,
Never be the same,
Never be the same.
Well I’ve spent too much time dreaming, I’ve been wishing my life away,
Time to start on chasing, making these memories remain.
Keep writing, singing, and loving, no time to fool around,
Dancing, living, and learning, I know my way downtown.
I found you, I found myself,
And I’ll never be the same,
I’ve dreamt, dreamt of this day,
When passion changed the game.
It’s all in the vibe of the song,
It’s not too hard to sing along.
My eyes are now open,
I see you crystal clear.
I found you, I found myself,
And I’ll never be the same,
I’ve dreamt, dreamt of this day,
When passion changed the game.

Satan Woman

Hey there, I know where you’ve been,
I even know what you’ve been up to.
Listening to the words that you speak,
And I sure as hell know that they ain’t true.
Satan woman, look at me.
I’m moving out, I’m going to be free.
Satan woman, keep lying to me.
I don’t mind, I’ll just leave my key.
Broken spirit, where’s your morale?
Got an evil mind, full of lies.
Live the big life in your city.
I don’t mind, I’m fine at home.
Satan woman, look at me.
I’m moving out, I’m going to be free.
Satan woman, keep lying to me.
I don’t mind, I’ll just leave my key.
Keep telling your lies, your evil lies,
I don’t believe you and it’s no surprise.
Keep telling your lies, your evil lies,
Keep lying, keep lying, keep lying, keep lying.
Satan woman, look at me.
I’m moving out, I’m going to be free.
Satan woman, keep lying to me.
I don’t mind, I’ll just leave my key.
