When I was a child seven years old, seven years old
I wouldn’t dare do as I’m told, do as I’m told
Now six and twenty years guess that I’m grown, guess that i’m grown
I walk in line with strangers, not knowing where I’m going
Ahhh... Ahhh…
Born to a girl a singer of songs, singer of songs
And father of course but he didn’t stay long, didn’t stay long
She took me to her side taught me what’s right, taught me what’s wrong
Now I walk the world knowing, I’ll never be alone
Ahhh… Ahhh…

Lonely Girl
03:44

I’m a lonely girl, dressed in red with lonely curls
Fill my bed with lonely boys, cuz I’m a lonely girl
It’s been six and twenty years, that I’ve cried my lonely tears
For my string of darling dears, it’s been six and twenty years
When I fall it’s like a love song
Before long they all fade out
So I try to convince myself I’m gonna make this count
But I know how the story folds
And this is where my heart breaks down
This is where my heart breaks down
Where the ocean meets the stream took a whaler from the east
With his heart he buried me where the ocean meets the stream
I’m a lonely girl dressed in red with lonely curls
Fill my head with sorry tale, cuz I’m a lonely girl
When I fall it’s like a love song
Before long they all fade out
So I try to convince myself I’m gonna make this count
But I know how the story folds
And this is where my heart breaks down
This is where my heart breaks down

Fool's Gold
02:42

If only I could see right through you
Sleeping dogs would lie
If only I could take what’s given
And just be satisfied
I know, I know it was just a fool’s gold
I know, I know I should fold
I know, I know it was just a fool’s gold
I know, I know I should fold
I’ll daisy chain my scatter brain
To put me back in place
And sand me down against the grain
Until you’ve been erased
I know, I know it was just a fool’s gold
I know, I know I should fold
I know, I know it was just a fool’s gold
I know, I know I should fold
If only I could see right through you
Sleeping dogs would lie
If only I could take what’s given
And just be satisfied
I know, I know it was just a fool’s gold
I know, I know I should fold
I know, I know it was just a fool’s gold
I know, I know I should fold

Anything Worth Saving
02:50

I’m a little girl up to no good, I’m no good
I just can’t seem to do what I should
I’m a little girl dressed up in white
But I’m covered in mud
And I wanna go where the birds fly away
Somewhere over the rainbow
I wanna see if there’s anything worth saving inside of me
I’m a little girl up to no good, I’m no good
I would change if I thought that I could
I was playing with imaginary friends
Oh I treated you like a game of pretend
And I wanna go where the birds fly away
Somewhere over the rainbow
I wanna see if there’s anything worth saving inside of me

Rush
03:26
|

|
Rush of blood to my head
I spilled the wine but left a thousand things unsaid
A silent shade of red
I walk the beat, empty streets
The moon is rising staring daggers back at me
And why shouldn’t he be
And I’m still, coming down
And I’m still, coming down
I play is safe a steady pace
Lines and numbers written neatly on a page
But you wash them all away
Your bittersweet nicotine
Winding through me and I’m caught between your sheets
And shaking at the knees
And I’m still, coming down
And I’m still, coming down

Six Bottles of Wine
03:25

Six bottles of wine
Six bottle of wine I’m gonna walk the line
You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine
I’m gonna break you this time
Heart pinned to my sleeve
Heart pinned to my sleeve it’s blacker than the sea
Are we only what we believe
I shed thoughts like the falling leaves
Baby I know you
Like a trick coin always set to lose
Lower than the Delta Blues
Hands up baby before I shoot
Six bottles of wine
Six bottle of wine I’m gonna walk the line
You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine
I’m gonna break you this time
I’m gonna break you this time
I’m gonna break you this time

Little Halo
02:48
|

|
You’re my, little halo
I can’t see much past your light
Swing low, by my window
Carry me far from this cold, cold night
Thrill me my love
I can’t get enough
Your hand my heart tied up
Thrill me my love
Fortune fell upon me
Like a boulder in a steep ravine
Baby, I’m no daisy
I’m drunk, I’m lazy
But I'll make you sing
Thrill me my love
I can’t get enough
Your hand my heart tied up
Thrill me my love

Out of sight, out of mind
So don’t look me straight in the eye
Out of sight, out of mind
Too hard not to cross the line
I’m too old to be running around
Too young to settle down
So out of sight, out of mind
Don’t look me in the eye
I dreamt that I followed you last night
I watched you kiss your babies as you turned out your lights
Oh mama, I never thought I was the kind
To turn a man from his beautiful wife
I’m too old to be running around
Too young to settle down
So out of sight, out of mind
Don’t look me in the eye
I’m too old to be running around
Too young to settle down
So out of sight, out of mind
Don’t look me in the eye

Toyota Song
01:55
|

|
I know you
You’re the one with the red shades on
You know me
I’m the girl with crooked teeth
Remember, all the times when we ran away
Those funny songs we used to play
Remember, picking fights in South Dakota
And making up in your Toyota.... Oh….
I’ve seen you
Shaky knees between the sheet
You’ve seen me
From my flat chest to my flat feet
Remember, bundled up in our winter coats
We followed footprints in the snow
Remember, picking fights in Pensacola
And making up in my Carolla…. Oh…
Dudududududududu
Dududududu
Dudududududududu

Don't Want to Die Alone
02:47
|

|
I don’t want to die alone
With a crippled tongue or a heart of stone
With a rifle that will fumble from my hands
They shake when I try to hold the sand
I don’t want to die alone
A repeat offense or a vagabond
I will serve my time and then I’ll come for you
I will make you mine in time I always do
Let them wonder just who’s lying
I’ll let them wonder if the hero is dying
I don’t want to die alone
A last resort or a bag of bone
A paradise a bet that I love to lose
With nothing more than a pair of worn out shoes
Let them wonder just who’s lying
I’ll let them wonder if the hero is dying
I don’t want to die alone
A repeat offense or a vagabond
I will serve my time and then I’ll come for you
I will make you mine in time I always do
Yo-de-yo-le-ee-ee
Yo-de-le-ee-oo
Yo-de-le-eeee

Dreamcatcher

I was frozen by a mighty cold wind
I got taken by the storm
Ain’t no reason to give me no pity
Cuz I got what I asked him for
Those warm nights they seem so far away
From this Siberian bed
He sister tell me how’d you get to the place where you hear
One voice in your head
I got a little dream catcher feathers so white
Sings me a sweet lullaby
Got a little dream catcher feathers so white
And it’s gonna keep me alive
I was frozen by a mighty cold wind
I got taken by the storm
Ain’t no reason to give me no pity
Cuz I got what I asked him for
You see God in curious places
In each locked step that you take
You say he moves in mysterious ways honey
But it ain’t no reason to hate
I got a little dream catcher eases my mind
Sings me a sweet lullaby
Got a little dream catcher feathers so white
And it’s gonna keep me alive
I was frozen by a mighty cold wind
I got taken by the storm
Ain’t no reason to give me no pity
Cuz I got what I asked him for
Got a little dream catcher feathers so white
And it’s gonna keep me alive

Even if it takes all night, even if it takes all night
I’m gonna find a reason, gonna find a reason
Try to tell me this isn’t right, tell me this isn’t right
I’m gonna make you feel it, gonna make you feel it
Oh, even if it takes all night
Even if it takes all my life, some days I think it might
It’s always raining on me, always raining on me
You know you can cut like a knife, you cut like a knife
And I’m just a puddle baby, just a puddle baby
Oh, even if it takes all my
Life is always easy when it’s black and white
But we could never keep the color inside the lines
Something ‘bout the way you make me feel it’s like
I can hardly breathe, if you’re not by my side
Even when I walk away, I walked away
I’m never gone to stay, never gone to stay
Cuz I’m just a boomerang, a boomerang
You’re waiting to catch me baby, catch me baby
Oh, you’re gonna catch me maybe
