I can hold you In my mind And I'm gonna hold you 'til my Dyin' time If I could on Judgment day It's next to you girl that I would lay But I've Lost My Little Girl Hear me singin' til the Midnight comes Shake your hips in the Mornin' sun Keep your legs girl Til I come It's next to you that I was Born to run But I've Lost My Little Girl I can hold you In my mind And I'm gonna hold you til my Dyin' time But I've Lost My Little Girl

John Healey was a desperate little man He carried his gun everyday He shot a man when he looked him in the eye He shot him and he shot him dead Shot him and he shot him dead See John Healey start a runnin' Made it 'bout twenty miles away Up stepped a man, took him by the arm Sayin' Johnny come and go with me, Johnny come and go with me So he sent for his darlin' mother to come Sent for her to come and pay his bail But there ain't no bail for a murderin' man They threw John Healey in jail They threw John Healey in jail They hung him by his head With tears a rollin' down his cheeks There ain't no care for a murderin' man His mother couldn't help but weep His mother couldn't help but weep Now all you people take a warnin' From this here song and learn There's a Johnny in me, and a Johnny in you I didn't feel glad to watch him hang I didn't feel glad to watch him hang

Woke up last night I heard the thunder crack Well the rain's pourin' down round the old blues shack Well the shack could flood but I'll take the chance I wanna stick around for one last dance Storm's Comin' Mama Storm's Comin' Babe Well the lightnin' struck at the top of the hill And the fire spread so I say well well Well the hurricane's hear so the people leave But I hope to God that the storm starts easin' Storm's Comin' Mama Storm's Comin' Babe Well the fire went out and the shack is freezin' But I keep my girl sittin' next to me Well the roof has fallen but I don't mind I just wanna love you girl tonight Storm's Comin' Mama Storm's Comin' Babe

I've heard the wisdom of Cadillacs The way they fly down my mama's flat I could build my dynasty too I just wanna make love to you The finance of imagery is much too sweet My lover's skin lord, it makes me weep This lonesome boy feels so alone I just wanna make love to you Mama Don't Cry now It's only so long til we all got to die anyhow Abraham he's thinkin leave it all behind Prophets of old they were never too kind I could start my religion too I just wanna make love to you In the Sabines I hear whisper's too Of a Roman Cavalcade in future paperbacks for you I could end my empire too I just wanna make love to you Mama Don't Cry now It's only so long til we all got to die anyhow Well Jesus said bread falls so far He fed a million on his way to Caesar I could end that revolution too I just wanna make love to you Mama Don't Cry now It's only so long til we all got to die anyhow

Mother, I adore you Father, I'm gettin' old Darlin' I cant hear your words But I hear that rattlesnake moan Darlin' I hardly knew you But by the strength of your skin You said farewell to my achin' heart Your gonna hear my rattlesnake sing Hey hey hey, I'm a rattlesnake babe Well well well, won't you rattle me? Rider, oh rider I hope to be leavin' soon How I wish that I could ride the blinds That my rattlesnake holds on to Stranger, oh stranger How did I become like you Every time I see that mirror girl Well I see my rattlesnake too Hey hey hey, I'm a rattlesnake babe Well well well, won't you rattle me Mother, I love you Father, I'm doin' well Darlin' I cant hear your words Livin' in my rattlesnake hell

Yonder come my baby all dressed in red Tell you ma'am I was better off dead Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Yonder come my girl all dressed in blue Tell you woman there's nothin' I can do Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Hey babe won't you come here quick This old cocaine's makin' me sick Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Yonder come my girl all over that hill Tell you man she's livin' there still Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Every time my babe and me, we go to town Lord they come and they shoot us down Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Hey babe won't you come here quick This old cocaine's makin' me sick Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Yonder come my girl all dressed in red Tell you ma'am I was better off dead Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Yonder come my girl all dressed in white Told you woman you could stay all night Cocaine's runnin' round my brain Hey babe won't you come here quick This old cocaine's makin' me sick Cocaine's runnin' round my brain
