Fine
Line
There's
a curve in the highway
Just south of town
Where a man has pulled over
To figure life out
With only his conscience
And a lonesome sound
Of diesels whinin’ upgrade
Got a wife and two kids
They love him so
Got a woman down in Charleston
She's
startin’ to show
He's damned if he leaves
And he's sure damned if he don't
And he wonders how life got this way
‘Cause it's a fine line in between right and wrong
Yeah he’s been crossin’ over that border
Way too long
He
shoulda seen it comin’ at him right from the start
Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart
Now the call of the highway is a powerful thing
Like the pull of a lover
Or a child in a swing
Gave his heart to two women
Only one wears his ring
They're both gonna have his babies now
So how do you confess
What words won't explain
He never intended causin’ so much pain
Now he feels like a farmer
Went prayin’ for rain
Got more than he bargained from the clouds
‘Cause it's a fine line in between right and wrong
Yeah he's been crossin’ over that border
Way too long
He
shoulda seen it comin’ at him
Right from the start
Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart
He'll turn his car around tonight
Go home and try to face the truth
Everyone involved gettin’ hurt
And there ain't nothin’ he can do no no no
He shoulda seen it comin’ at him right from the start
Now
there ain't no
Now
there ain't no escape
From a fine line in between right and wrong
Yeah
he's been crossin’ over that border
Way too long
He
shoulda seen it comin’ at him right from the start
Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart
Now there ain't no escapin’ from a broken heart
Yeah
they’re all gonna wind up with a broken heart
Nobody's gettin' out without a broken heart
I
Go Blind
Every
time I look at you I go blind
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Every time I look at you I go blind
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
In the mornin’ I get up
And I try to feel alive but I can't
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
I don't know what it is
Somethin’ in me just won't give me a chance
I think it's that I feel more confused by the deal
Love has shown me
Little child did you know that there's a light
(And it's gonna to shine right through your eyes)
What do you think that life looks like
(Every time I look at you)
I go blind
I go blind
Well, somewhere over there
There’s a purpose, there's a care for free
In me there's nobody
No one plan, no one stand to be free
I think it's that because
I have seen all the fuss
And it's no big deal, no big deal
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Every
time I look at you I go blind
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Every time I look at you I go blind
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
In the mornin’ I get up
And I try to feel alive but I can't
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
I don't know what it is
Somethin’ in me just won't give me a chance
I think it's that I feel more confused by the deal
Love has shown me
Little child did you know that there's a light
(And it's gonna to shine right through your eyes)
What do you think that life looks like
(Every time I look at you)
I go blind
I go blind
Well, somewhere over there
There’s a purpose, there's a care for free
In me there's nobody
No one plan, no one stand to be free
I think it's that because
I have seen all the fuss
And it's no big deal, no big deal
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
Hold me hold me
‘Cause I wanna get higher and higher
(Every time I look at you I go blind)
In
life
Almost
Home
Walkin’
on the water in a van
Tryin’ to think of everythin’ I can
Well its gettin’ very late
And these tapes don't sound no good
And my body just don't feel the way I wish it would
I was drivin’ when I heard you call my name
It was not like before
Not quite the same
It’s too late to be much good
And I might as well confess
That I have not got the nerve to borrow cigarettes
When I'm almost with you music tries to play
When I'm almost home
I almost hear you say
It'll be alright if we could run away
Decidin’ things for all my life
No one ever tells me when or why
But my heart can't seem to tell me
Would satisfy my mind
So I jump into that van just one more time
When I'm almost with you music tries to play
When I'm almost home
I almost hear you say
It'll be alright if we could run away
I was drivin’ when I heard you call my name
It was not like before
Not quite the same
Ooooooo but my heart can't seem to tell me
Would satisfy my mind
So I jump into that van just one more time
When I'm almost with you music tries to play
When I'm almost home
I almost hear you say
It'll be alright if we could run away
Ooooooo run away
Hey,
Hey What Can I Do
Wanna
tell you 'bout this girl I love
Oh my she looks so fine
She's the only one that I been dreamin' of
Maybe someday she’ll be all mine
I wanna tell her that I love her soul
And thrill with her my every touch
I need to tell her she's the only one I really love
I got a woman wanna ball all day
I got a woman and she won't be true
I got a woman stays drunk all the time
I got a woman and she won't be tr
Sunday morning when we go down to church
See the menfolks they’re standin' in line
They say they come to pray to the Lord
But with my little girl she looks so fine
And in the evenin’ when the sun is sinkin' low
Everybody's with the one they love
I walk the town
Keep a-searchin' all around
Lookin' for my street corner girl
I got a woman wanna ball all day
I got a woman and she won't be true no no
I got a woman stays drunk all the time
Said I got a little woman and she won't be true
In the bars with the men who play guitars
Singin', drinkin' and remember the times
My little lover does the midnight shift
Fool around all the time
I guess there's just one thing left for me to do
When pack my bags and move on my way
‘Cause I got a worried mind
Sharin' what I thought was mine
Gonna leave her where the guitars play
I got a woman stays drunk all the time
Yeah I got a woman and she won’t be true no no
I got a woman wanna ball all day
Whoa I got a little woman and she won't be true
(Hey, hey what can I do)
I got a woman stays drunk all the time
(Hey, hey what can I say)
Said I got a little woman and she won't be true
No no
(Hey, hey what
can I do)
I got a woman like to ball all day
(Hey, hey what can I say)
I got a woman stays drunk all the time
(Hey, hey what can I do)
All the time, all the time
Yeah
(Hey, hey what can I say)
Hey, hey what can I say
(Hey, hey what can I do)
Said I got a little woman and she won't be true no
(Hey, hey what can I say)
I got a woman stays drunk all the time
(Hey, hey what can I do)
Hey, hey what can I do
(Hey, hey what can I say)
I got a woman like to ball all day
(Hey, hey what can I do)
I got a woman and she won't be true
Renaissance
Eyes
Are you alone
Renaissance
eyes
I once had my family stolen from me
Renaissance eyes
Is that your car
Renaissance eyes yeah
Have you ever taken dancin’ lessons
Renaissance
eyes
Dress you in a fashion
Undress you with a passion
Though the vision haunts you
I’m the one that wants you
To love me with those eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes
Oooo is that your car
Renaissance eyes
I once had a car but it was stolen
Renaissance eyes
Tell me your name
Renaissance eyes
Do you ever think about the future
Renaissance eyes
Dress you in a fashion
Undress you with a passion
Though the vision haunts you, you
I’m the one that wants you
To love me with those eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes
Oooo spend my days
With a carpet bag collecting
All my nights, all my nights with the silver screen
Nothing’s wrong with the way that I respect her
She’s
more than a, more than an ordinary Queen
Dress
her in a fashion
Undress her with a passion
Though
the vision haunts you
I’m
the one that wants you
To love me with those eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes
When the days are short
And the nights are long
And I wait for Jean Harlow
To love me with those eyes, eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes, eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes, eyes
Love me with those eyes
Oohh
No
no no no no
Before
The Heartache Rolls In
There's
a chill in your kiss
And a thrill I've been missin' too long
This love is deceavin'
Babe I believe there's things goin’ wrong
‘Cause your eyes betray your heart and soul
And your love for me is growin’ old
And I think maybe I better head outa here and
Roll like the wind
I'm gonna roll 'till the highway ends
I'm gonna roll on out of here
Before the heartache rolls in
There's a lonesome sound keeps rollin’ around
inside me
Those wheels on the highway windin’ on by baby
I gotta leave
‘Cause if I don't get out while my mind's in control
I may never be able to ever let go
And I think maybe I better head outa here and
Roll like the wind
I'm gonna roll 'till the highway ends
I'm gonna roll on out of here
If I don't get out while my mind's in control
I may never be able to ever let go
And I know that I gotta head outa here and
Roll like the wind
I'm gonna roll 'till the highway ends
I'm gonna roll on out of here
Before the heartache rolls in
Araby
It's
worth the admission
When my love falls up to the glass
And it's gone through the window
And my love falls up to the glass
Oh many days I wonder what's behind the veil
And I feel my breath upon your mouth
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
Is it true what they're saying
And there's nothin’ that you want
And it's gone through the window
Is there nothin’ that you want
Oh many days I wonder what's behind the veil
And I feel my breath upon your mouth
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
Is it gone through the window
Is there nothin’ that you want
Well it all comes down to what you say
And then nothin’ that you want
Oh many days I wonder what's behind the veil
And I know that love will kill my pride
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
And I press my heart into your hand
As my gift from Araby
And I press my heart into your hand now
I'm
Over You
The stars are shining brighter
Than the night that I remember
The
stars are like a river
Reflecting in all directions
I'm gonna phone her
But not today
I'm gonna write her
But not today
Today I'm gonna be
Driving down Highway 441
With the windows down
Beer in one hand and the radio blasting
My old needs I won't recognize
‘Cause I'm over you
Hold on to the evening
Hold on to the morn
All night long
The sun shines bright and underneath and
I'm gonna phone her
But not today
I'm gonna write her
But not today
Today I'm gonna be
Driving down Highway 441
With the windows down
Beer in one hand and the radio blasting
My old needs I won't recognize
‘Cause I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
(I'm over you)
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
(I'm over you)
I'm,
I'm over you
(I'm over you)
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you
I’m
(I'm over you)
I’m
(I'm over you)
I'm over you
(I'm over you)
(I'm
over you)
Gravity
Of The Situation
Well
we blew past the army motorcade
And it's abnormal load haulage
The gravity of the situation
Came on us like a bit of new knowledge
Well the bubbliest of bubble baths
Broke down on the bank
The gravity of the situation
Is why our old thought bubbles sank
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Gravity of the situation
Well a fat hungry english crow
Is pickin’ at a carcass
The gravity of the situation
Is hard to focus and harness
Well we met Bill Lowery
At the Queen's Hall
The gravity of the situation
Became apparent to us all
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
Humble and gracious
The gravity of the situation
The
gravity of the situation
I
Hope That I Don’t Fall In Love With You
Well
I hope that I don't fall in love with you
Falling in love just makes me blue
Well the music plays and you display a part for me to see
Had a beer and now I hear you
calling out on me
And
I hope that I don't fall in love with you
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand
Well I turn around to look at you
You light a cigarette
Wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
I can see that you are lonesome just like me
And indeed would you like some company
Well I turn around to look at you
You look back at me
The guy you're with he’s up and split
The chair next to you's free
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me
Well it's closing time
Music's fading out
Last call for drinks
Think I'll have another stout
Well I turn around to look at you
You’re nowhere to be found
I search the place for your lost face
Guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in
love with you
Dream Baby

Driver
8
The
walls are built up
Stone by stone
Fields divided one by one
And the train conductor says
Take a break Driver 8
Driver 8 take a break
We've been on the shift too long
And the train conductor says
Take a break Driver 8
Driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination
It's still a ways away
(But it’s still a ways away)
Saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm
Power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get trapped
Bells are ringing through the town again
Children look up all they hear is sky-blue bells ringing
And the train conductor says
Take a break Driver 8
Driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination
It’s still a ways away
(But it’s still a ways away)
But it’s still a ways away
(But it’s still a ways away)
The way you shook your head me
The way you to put myself to sleep
The way you singing then you teach
The way you put myself right down
Just speak
The apology’s a song in a plane like that one
She is selling based on the good that were saved
Locomotive
train of impressive
Hear the bells ring again
Feel
the moon thick and thin
And
the train conductor says
Take a break Driver 8
Driver 8 take a break
We've been on this shift too long
And the train conductor says
Take a break Driver 8
Driver 8 take a break
We
can reach our destination
Still a ways away
(But it’s still a ways away)
But it's still a ways away
(But it’s still a ways away)
Let
Me Be Your Man
I’ve been waiting for you
I
wish you could too
Held you too long to lay back now
First time you caught my eye
I knew I wanted to spend my life
Making you feel like you should
I’m not trying to make you do
Nothing you don’t want to but
Said I love you
I can’t change that
My love depends on you
It grows
It flows
It goes by you
Won’t you let me be your man
So if you’d only tell me
(If you’d only tell me)
Tell me that you love me
(Tell me that you love me)
I’d be the luckiest man alive
I just keep on wanting
Anticipating till the day you say you’re mine
I’m not trying to make you do
Nothing you don’t want to but
I said I love you
I can’t change that
(No I can’t)
My love depends on you
It grows
It flows
It goes by you
Won’t you let me be your man
Won’t you let me be your man
Let me be your man
Won’t
you let me be your man
Please,
Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want
The time’s for change
See
the luck I’ve had
Make a good man turn bad
So please, please, please
Let me, let me, let me
Let me get what I want this time
I haven’t dreamed in a long time
See the life I’ve had
Could make a good man bad
So for once in my life
Let
me get what I want
Lord knows it will be the first time
Lord
knows it will be the first time
