Rocka my brain. Rocka my soul
Rocka my body in a six foot hole
Don't leave me here to face this night alone
Rock me in the evening. Rock me at night
Rock my body in the broad day light
But don't leave me here to face my life alone
You…

GRUMBLE RUMBLE

Grumble rumble goes the sky
Spitting water in my eye
Whhhhhhhhhhh goes the wind
Time to call the children in
That's no rumble from the sky
Those are guns with barrels that glow
And the freezing…

INFATUATION UNREQUITED
They say it's just infatuation
I only wish that it was true
Infatuation unrequited
feels like love to me for you
And then they say, "Silence is golden,"
and I don't know what to do
The Autumn leaves the branches…

BAND - FOOTBALL SEASON
Well, it must be football season
The band is on the field
The music trembles in the tree tops
as it tumbles down the hill
It echoes off the black top
as the drummers do their drill
I feel your breath on my shoulder…

I KEEP MY RADIO ON
I keep my radio on
From sunset to dawn
Keeps the spooks at bay
Scares them all away
I keep my radio on
I guess some folks got no problems
Some folks got no regrets
Don’t know how they do it
I’m not there yet…

EVERYTHING
Everything you know or think you know
Everything you know is wrong
Life ain't no hootenanny
and you don't have to sing along
You can laugh and you can mumble
You can hold your breath
Take a little piece of my heart now honey…

Down the gutter I float
It's not clear

ULTRA VIOLET
Maybe I could fill the tank
Head on down. What do you think?
I could be there in about three hours...
You could talk and I could listen
Walk you outta Depression Prison
Turn that thunder storm into an April Shower

THE LESSON
I saw her in a music store in Fort Worth, Texas
I'd driven in to buy some strings
It was like getting hit by a little fist in my solar plexis
when she said, “Can you help me tune this thing?”
She had a smile. A thin disguise…

Where the river is up
I'm goin' catfish fishin'
I'm goin' catfish fishin'
Catfish I'm fishin'

BEANSPILLER
I'm a beanspiller
I'm a squeaky wheel
I'm the guy that speaks up
and ruins the deal
and when you get hurt
I say,"Ouch!"
I'm the change
you loose in your couch
I'm a leaky faucet
I'm a tree that weeps
I'm a tattle tale…
