1.Cry Like A Baby
Well i never lived through the great depression
Somethimes i feel as though i did
And i don't have answers for every single question
But that's ok 'cos i'm just a kid
Well i've seen pictures of my mother
When she looked exactly like me
And i've seen all my friends running for cover
Running from something they can't see
And it's not easy to get handle on my life
But i have tried it time and time again
But i still cry just like a baby
And i answer back to feel a little free
And i still fly even though i'm gonna fall
But i'm too far to let it get to me
Well i'm not much like my generation
Their music only hurts my ears
And i don't hide my pain to save my reputation
It's too hard to keep up with these years
And it's not easy to a habit disappear
But i have tried it time and time again
2.The Captain
Well i don't have as many friends because
I'm not as pretty as i was
I've kicked myself at times because i've lied
So i will have to learn to stand my ground
I'll tell 'em i won't be around
I'll move on over to your town and hide
And you be the captain
And i'll be no-one
And you can carry me away if you want to
And you can lay low
Just like your father and if
I tread upon your feet you just say so
'cos you're the captain, i am no-one,
I tend to feel as though i owe one to you
Well i have handed all my efforts in
I searched here for my second wind
Is there somewhere here to let me in i asked
So i slammed the doors they slammed at me
I found the place i'm meant to be
I figured out my destiny at last
Did i forget to thank you for the ride
I hadn't tried i tend to runaway and hide
3.The Flower
Well this flower is my soul
But it's not half of what i owe
I should give you every rose that i ever grew
But take this one here for a start
And you can keep it in your heart
I have everything i need because of you
Well if my life was long enough
To pack up everything i love
I would do just that and give it all to you
But it's impossible to pay
All the things that you gave away
Si this flower i give will have to do
All the flowers growing wild
For ten thousand lonely miles
It's not near enough to give you what i should
So i will owe you for a while
Maybe longer than my life
I would give you all the world if i could
4.You Got The Car
The last time i held you
You held the cards and i was
Asking for anything you had
You saw it coming but you
Didn't tell me and next
Thing everything turned bad
You got the car and i got the break
I've had as much as i can take
And my heart can't handle anyomre
And all the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put me back together again
So i laid in broken pieces on the floor
So don't come back for more
The last time i saw you
You didn't see me from
The sdiewalk the south side of town
I called your name in a whisper so
You wouldn't hear me and turn around
The last time i thought of you
Was in this song and i
Can't get you out of my head
But i'm not stupid i can
Just walk away and
I'll break my own heart instead
5.These Pines
These pines are not the ones that i'm used to
They won't carry me home when i cry
Am i too far gone to recover
Or can i turn if i try
Should i trade my soul for another
Should i stay and pretend that i'm happy
Like so many times before
Yeah these pines
Are not mine
They don't smell so sweet
Like the ones in my mind
And i search the needles
'til i run out of time
But i don't see you in these pines.
Di i stumble or falter my words
When i'm saying everything is all right
I'm not one to release my depression
But these trees bring it out every night
Well i don't talk 'cos i'm trying to listen
To the wind take me home through these leaves
But it's quiet and don't hear nothing
Cos the wind doesn't blow through these trees
6.Don't Talk Back
Well it's half my heart and a little bit of soul
That makes me feel i've gotta ride this road
I wouldn't change it if i could
And me and this road you
You know we've got an understanding
It won't leave me at home and i am
Too tired to do just what i should
And last night i asked if i could
Take comfort in the rosewood
The road said nothing at all
Well cos it don't talk back unless the wind blows hard
I drive it all night with the wheel of my car
It won't leave me running for the door
And if the paints still wet i can just slow down
And it all goes away on the other side of town
And nothing is that easy anymore
Well the hurt won't leave with the sight of white line
But it eases up my pain for a while
The only habit that i keep
And miles take time but the time is mine
And always moving suits me fine
I'll catch my breath when i sleep
And after all that i've done
I'm not half what i'd hope that i'd become
There's still along way to go
Well cos it don't talk back unless the wind blows hard
I drive it all night with the wheel of my car
It won't leave me running for the door
And if the paints still wet i can just slow down
And it all goes away on the other side of town
And nothing is that easy anymore
And last night i asked if i could
Take comfort in the rosewood
The road said nothing at all
Well cos it don't talk back unless the wind blows hard
I drive it all night with the wheel of my car
It won't leave me running for the door
And if the paints still wet i can just slow down
And it all goes away on the other side of town
And nothing is that easy anymore
Yeah cos it don't talk back unless the wind blows hard
I drive it all night with the wheel of my car
It won't leave me running for the door
And if the paints still wet i can just slow down
And it all goes away on the other side of town
And nothing is that easy anymore
7.Southern Kind Of Life
I grew up along way from here
I slept with the lights on for fifteen years
And sabbath kept me home on friday nights
And daddy sang me rodgers
Just to make everything alright
My town wasn't even on the map
You could pass right through it in twenty seconds flat
But the south was like the whole world to me
It wasn't easy to stay but it was harder to leave
Yeah i was a south bound child
Yeah i had a small town life
But i turned out alright in the north
Livin' that southern kind of life
Old friends and bibles filled the house
No room for money and no money anyhow
Deprived was something we always heard
But to me and my brother it was just another word
I use to think the north was the end
Cause people go there and they don't come back again
But my father's father was a man of the sea
He lived a southern life two blocks away from me
Yeah i was a south bound child
Yeah i had a small town life
But i turned out alright in the north
Livin' that southern kind of life
Yeah i was a south bound child
Yeah i had a small town life
But i turned out alright in the north
Livin' that southern kind of life
8.Mr Baylis
Put it into gear we've got a long way to go
You can play your dylan
When we have to take it slow
And everytime you lose your mind
From driving in your bed
There's another world just waiting up ahead
So you just drive mr baylis
Don't you worry 'bout the weather
I asked the rain to hold off
And so far it looks just fine
We're only half way through our journey
But i think we're gonna make it
And you can sleep when darkness comes around
Cos this roads the only thing that holds you down
Well clear your mind we don't have time to plan
You can leave your worries
We'll out run them if we can
And when your blind from white lines
And your eyes are turning red
There's another world just waiting up ahead
So you just drive mr baylis
Don't you worry 'bout the weather
I asked the rain to hold off
And so far it looks just fine
We're only half way through our journey
But i think we're gonna make it
And you can sleep when darkness comes around
Cos this roads the only thing that holds you down
And even my weakness says we're gonna be just fine
And staying is the last thing on my mind
So you just drive mr baylis
Don't you worry 'bout the weather
I asked the rain to hold off
And so far it looks just fine
We're only half way through our journey
But i think we're gonna make it
And you can sleep when darkness comes around
Cos this roads the only thing that holds you down
9.The Hard Way
If i could do it all again
I wouldn't change a thing
I'd have you back the way i had you then
But one thing that i know
This time i wouldn't make you go
I'd have you back i wouldn't lose you again
But i learnt the hard way
I can't have it back what i had then
Yes i learnt the hard way
And i know i won't have that chance again
Some nights i sit on my own
With a feeling of alone
Wondering if your ever coming home
But i know why your gone
I'll be the first to say i'm wrong
But it's hard to spend another night alone
Cause i learnt the hard way
I can't have it back what i had then
Yes i learnt the hard way
And i know i won't have that chance again
Yes i learnt the hard way
I can't have it back what i had then
Yes i learnt the hard way
And i know i won't have that chance again
Cause i learnt the hard way
10.Last Hard Bible
I sold my last hard bible
Just to pay my bills
I called my mother
To reserve me in her will
And the pay i'm getting every thursday night
Well it just don't seem enough
Well money can buy me a hell of a lot
But it sure won't buy me love
Well i brought me a car
And i brought me a roadtrain
Car won't go
Trains to slow
So i found me a mansion
On the highest hillside
Bigger then this town
But it don't feel like home
I sold my last hard bible
Just to pay my bills
I called my mother
To reserve me in her will
And the pay i'm getting every thursday night
Well it just don't seem enough
Well money can buy me a hell of a lot
But it sure won't buy me love
I spent my cash
On a brand new heartache
I spent my time
Trying to make it back
He took my heart
And he took my savings
He took the train
And left me on the track
I sold my last hard bible
Just to pay my bills
I called my mother
To reserve me in her will
And the pay i'm getting every thursday night
Well it just don't seem enough
Well money can buy me a hell of a lot
But it sure won't buy me love
11.Don't Go
As your disappearing i'm hearing
All i wanted you to say
I should focus more on the thought of
Letting you just slip away
But i get this strange feeling your not revealing
Everything you wanted to say
So it's just a little harder for me to play the part of
Watching you walk away
So before you disappear again
Just think of what you're feeling and don't go
There's more to what your telling me
I'm not buy what your selling me don't go
Don't you understand that i'm stranded
In a feeling i can't shake
Don't you realise that i'm frightened
Of all the things your gonna to take
And now you seem so distant so much more resistant
To ever let the feeling show
So it's hard for me to face it
Even less replace it
Everything your letting go
So before you disappear again
Just think of what you're feeling and don't go
There's more to what your telling me
I'm not buy what your selling me don't go
