"a place in the sun"
i wanna go to portugal
spend money on
anything i want
i'm on vacation by the ocean
i'm sedated, but i'm wholesome
i'm on vacation by the ocean

walking home
yeah i walk alone
ain't got no phone, it dies when it gets cold
i put my raincoat on, shelter from the storm
not very pretty but it keeps me dry and varm
i'm a walk-on so i guess i'll walk some more
pass my house, keep walking on
i'm a walk-on so i guess i'll walk some more
it's getting late but i keep walking on

i still use the same chords
as i did when i was a boy
same old song with new words
i won't put in any effort
i still use the same chords
as i did five years ago
i should get a haircut
and clean my shirt up

|
i'm high and dry tonigh
you left me outside and i try
to rationalize the reasons why
you're having dinner with your friends
and i'm alone in your apartment
again
i'll stay inside tonight
i never want to leave the house
to go outside and waste my time
you're having dinner with your friends
and i'm alone in your apartment
again

reaching you is like talking by air mail
this is not what i imagined
no i don't care as long as you're happy
and you don't care about me
well yeah it's kinda funny
we only talk through one way air mail
it's easier now that you're having
the time of your life
rofl
maybe im just overreacting
usually always overreacting
late evenings & loud mornings
and your "don't feel like talking"'s
but it happens a lil bit too often
that's not an ashtray, you're sleepwalking
that's not a hand on your leg, it's a run in your stockings

goin' home
02:40
|
|
||
|
you sure do talk a lot
it's your biggest flaw
i'm always quiet when you ask me to speak my mind
i never have anything to say anymore!
i'm not even bored, i'm just tired
of people asking me to do what they want
i never want to do anything anymore!
you know i try
and i know i fail
all the time
yes sir i'm goin' home
i need to be alone, i'm tired of tomorrow
i'm not well and it shows, should i stay in some more?
"you can call me tomorrow"

yeah, i think that jacket suits you perfectly well
100 bucks well spent
you know sometimes you have to pay your dues
before you pay your rent

back 2 you
03:15
|
|
||
|
loosely knitted, paper thin
i can't go back to you again
fading in, forgiving
i can't go back to you again
let it be
easy & free
so i won't go back to you again
go for a walk and walk it all off
i can't go back to you again
try so hard to get back to where i was
before i went back to you again
let it be
easy & free
so i won't go back to you again
i'll go back to you again

john henry

when he was a baby
sitting on his papa's knees
he picked up a hammer and a little piece of steel
said "hammer's gonna be the death of me"
john henry hammered in the mountains
his hammer was striking fire
but he worked so hard, he broke his poor heart
he laid down his hammer and he died
they took john henry to the graveyard
laid him down in the sand
now every train come rolling by
holler "there lies a steel driving man"
john henry had a little baby
you could hold him in the palm of your hand
the last words i heard that poor boy say
was "my daddy was a steel driving man"
now every monday morning
when the bluebirds sing
you can hear john henry a mile or more
you can hear john henrys hammer ring
