I Will Go
02:45
|
|||
|
oh yes, I will go
on my own tomorrow
I won’t waste another day
I will show
my sons and daughters
I had something to say
if it goes too fast
I’ll hold the past for comfort
while still embracing today (hey)
if it starts to slow
I’ll be sure to know
there’s always some good on the way
maybe it will hurt
or feel like a burden
but it has to be this way
wear the ball and chain
just like my father
until I’m old and gray
and if it goes too fast
I’ll hold the past for comfort
while still embracing today (hey)
if it starts to slow
I’ll be sure to know
there’s always some good on the way

Rabbit on the Road
01:54
|

|
I'm walking down the road
with a long way to go
before I reach the next town
but I'm not walking alone
'cause out here bees are buzzin'
and hummingbirds are hummin'
out here deer are dancin'
and the catfish are jumpin' (yeah)
I'm out where the world's song is free to play
travelling on foot down the highway
bzz bzz, chirp chirp
glub glub, ribbit
bzz bzz, chirp chirp
glub glub, ribbit
out here bees are buzzin'
and hummingbirds are hummin'
out here deer are dancin'
and the catfish are jumpin' (yeah)
I'm out where the world's song is free to play
travelling on foot down the highway

welcome to Leon’s Happy Hour
we’ve got all your needs
we’ve got honey-barbecued chicken wings
we’ve got ladies
but please, sir, tread safely
you come over asking to dance on my floor
I said ‘no,’ and shut the door
hot as a pistol with no safety
hot like that shirt you got out of Macy’s
hot like your neighbor, her name Tracy, yeah
you come over asking to dance on my floor
I said ‘no,’ and shut the door

The Boss: that wrecking ball should’ve been here last week. Bill doesn’t want to do it clean? fine, we’ll go old school. I don’t mind getting dirty with a little dynamite.
Laborer: alright, boss. I'll tell him.
The Boss: guess what the wife packed me today, Jimmy?
Jimmy: uh, what boss?
The Boss: it’s hard to say… what does that look like to you?
Jimmy: uh...
The Boss: it looks like dog shit, Jimmy, and that’s a compliment compared to what it’s going to taste like.
Jimmy: (laughs)

drink ‘n fight
‘til daylight
then it’s back to the zone
back to hammers
and screaming sanders
need a pick-me-up?
meet me at the truck
a puff o’ this stuff
will perk you up, my friend
hike! hep!
hike! hep!
hike! hep!
hike! hep!
hike! hep!
look at John
dead ‘n gone
heard a brick broke his head
won’t be long before
I join John six feet deep
below this construction zone
my quick tombstone
the construction zone

Little Drops of Water

little drops of water
little grains of sand
make the might ocean
and the pleasant land
thus the little minutes
humble though they be
make the mighty ages of eternity

My Ruby is Dumb
02:05
|
|||
|
she is a blossom
she is a moonbeam
she is the sweet song
that all the birds sing together
my Ruby is dumb
my Ruby is dumb
but she has her fun
but she has her fun
she's a wind
with nowhere to blow
she's the bubbly foam
drifting on a sea all alone
my Ruby is dumb
my Ruby is dumb
but she has her fun
but she has her fun

Our Trip to the Zoo
02:52
|
|||
|
when we went to the zoo we saw a gnu
an elk and a whelk and a wild emu
we saw a hare and a bear in its lair
and a seal have a meal on a high-backed chair
we saw a snake that was hardly awake
and a lion eat meat they’d forgotten to bake
we saw a coon and a baby baboon
the giraffe made us laugh all afternoon
we saw a crab and a long-tailed dab
and we all went home in a taxi cab
