Greg Brown - No place away
Tekst :
Words like notes,
are strokes along the thigh--
a long slow seduction,
on an Autumn night--
when Autumn, was still Autumn.
Wait a minute now,
everybody just hold it.
Let s think about this.
Whoa, whoa now.
Ain t there no place away?
And I tryed to hide--
live there like I used to.
But the sadness sent me,
letters every day,
sayin there s--
there s no place away.
Tell me where the hope lies,
to bear the world,
to bear the destruction,
in which we all participate.
Tell me where the hope lies,
to bear the world,
to bear the destruction,
in which we all participate.
Oh I wanna hear--
words like notes,
are strokes along the thigh--
a long slow seduction,
on an Autumn night--
when Autumn, was still Autumn.
Pour me out some hot tea,
and build up the fire.
We ll sit here and listen,
to the ancient choir,
singin , singin , singin , singin , hallelujah.
Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
Greg Brown - Pound it on down
Tekst :
Catfish ain t bitin , water ain t flowin ,
River s so low you can walk clean across.
I m all through travelin , home s where your hat is,
I ain t got no hat, and I ain t got no boss.
Pound it on down, pound it on down,
Pound it on down, deep in the ground.
I loved some women more than I should have,
I loved some others less than was right.
Some loved me madly, and some done me badly,
I m drinkin one drink for each one tonight.
Pound it on down, pound it on down,
Pound it on down, deep in the ground.
I got an old boat sets low in the water,
I built it myself out of riverbank junk.
When I am gone, throw my old bones in,
Cut the rope, kick the boat, buddy, I m sunk.
Pound it on down, pound it on down,
Pound it on down, deep in the ground.
Pound it on down, pound it on down,
Pound it on down, deep in the ground.
Greg Brown - Nice when it rains
Tekst :
Oh it s nice when it rains,
and were apart.
It s nice when it rains.
You re in my heart--
with all my joys and pains
and it s nice when it rains.
Oh it s nice when it rains.
life is sad.
It ain t all good,
but it ain t all bad.
And you re the best that I ever had,
and it s nice when it rains.
Oh it s nice when it rains,
and I m thinking of you.
I get so happy
and I get so blue.
And I don t know what we re gonna do,
and it s nice when it rains.
Inne utwory
Losowe utwory
Well I threw myself a party
It was just the other day
Well my wife wasn t there
But my old buddies were
Cause somebody was going away
Well I ve lived in this town for a lifetime
And I ve sinned from...
The time
The time has come
And here, i m seen as one
Whose words can not be true
Whose lies are worthless too
And i look into my decision
Should i say my indecision s my life
And i know nothing ever changes
But how many time s i ve changed my mind
And i can say that...
I ll be in my room alone
every post meridian
and I ll read my diary
and that book by Mister Gideon.
Bye Bye Baby
remember you re my baby
when they give you the eye.
And just to show that I...
And the tears fall like rain
Down my face again
Oh the words you wouldn t say
And the games you played
With my unfoolish heart
Oh i should have known this from the start
Oh the winter and spring
Going in hand in hand
Just like my love and pain
How the thought of you cuts deep within...
You think you re on my ass girl but that ain t you
It s the only thing that reminds me of you
All fat and ugly and covered with zits
When you open your mouth out comes shit
[chorus:]
Assface honey that s what you got
Sisyphus baby you can suck my cock
Assface (yeah!) that...
