Down The River Blues
03:29
|

I'm Goin' Down to the river,
To see if I can be baptised,
I'm goin down to the river girl,
To see my body rise
So Give me whiskey, when I'm thirsty
Religion, when I'm dry
Long legs when I'm lonely
And morphine so I can die
Tell you there ain't no heaven
There ain't no burnin' hell
Where you go when it ends little girl
Can't nobody tell
So Give me whiskey, when I'm thirsty
Religion, when I'm dry
Long legs when I'm lonely
And morphine so I can die
I'm Goin' down to the river
To see if I can drown
I'm Goin' down to the river girl
My body won't be found

Cover me in roses babe
Cover me in spades
Every kind of love that you could
Give me I would take
I need your kind of lovin'
Girl you set me free
Just make sure when you call me
You wear a white dress girl
Cover me in perfume girl
I need you all the time
Every kind of poem you could
Sing me I would write
Can't you hear my lonesome voice
Girl you drive me wild
Just make sure when you call me
You wear a white dress girl
Shake me baby, I'll be your rattlesnake man
Shake me baby, be my rattlesnake girl
Just make sure when you call me
You wear a white dress girl

Angels Call my Name
02:34

Here she comes
The midnight train
When I'm lyin' in bed
In honest pain
Thought I heard,
Thought I heard,
Thought I heard a whistle blow
There's no way I
Can tranquilize
My achin' mind
I don't mind dyin'
Thought I may
Thought I may
Thought I may kiss you ma'am
Well, yeah
Angels call
Angels call
Angels call my name
Woman I
Can hear you now
Your pretty eyes
Your soft howl
Thought I may
Thought I may
Thought I may be your man
Morning dew
Is a lot to ask
Of a pretty face
Awake at dawn
Thought I may
Thought I may
Thought I may be your love
Well, yeah
Angels call
Angels call
Angels call my name

Snake Eyed Woman
02:46
|
|||
She's an evil woman
Gonna cause you pain
When you're all alone
She will slander your name
Snake eyed woman
Yes, I'm her man
When you're all alone you will
Scream her name
She's an evil woman
Evil work of art
If you're not careful
She will tear heart apart
Snake eyed woman
Yes I'm her man
When you're all alone you will
Scream her name
She's an evil woman
Red headed bombshell
If you're not careful she will
Drag you through hell
Snake eyed woman
Yes I'm her man
When you're all alone you will
Scream her name
Snake eyes, Snake eyes

Pretty Polly
04:48
|
|||
Oh come around girl
Pretty Polly will sing a song
Said some around girl
Pretty Polly will sing a song
About a South American nation
In 1954
Guatemala's born a new
In the last ten years
Guatemala's born a new
In the last ten years
The common man his own master
No longer in fear
Pretty Polly will sing a lonesome song
Pretty Polly will sing no one will listen at all
Slave labour's cut
For the last ten years
Slave labour's cut
For the last ten years
US profits
Have been fallin' every year
Lobby man to the CIA says
Don't you owe me one
Lobby man to the CIA says
Don't you owe me too?
Overthrow their president in a military coup
Pretty Polly will sing a lonesome song
Pretty Polly will sing no one will listen at all
The General says to his president
I will drink your blood like wine
The General says to his president
I will drink your blood like wine
Twenty thousand people
Will be on borrowed time
In the streets you hear dogs bark
They got somethin' on their minds
In the streets you hear dogs bark
They got somethin' on their minds
But the men sit still they cannot go out of line
Pretty Polly will sing a lonesome song
Pretty Polly will sing no one will listen at all
Democracy's a failin'
And I wish somebody cared
Democracy's a failin'
And I wish somebody cared
Propaganda drives that money
And corruption takes her there
Capitol Hill not a word
The boys in blue never weep
Capitol Hill not a word
The boys in blue never weep
They've swallowed the lies
On their tongues that help them sleep
Communism they said was the only evil here

The Woman I love
03:34
|
|||
The Woman I love
Has long wavy hair
She drives me wild
She's a faithless affair
The Woman I love
Is a force untold
She's a gust of wind
Drives straight through my soul
She don't love me any more
The Woman I love
She don't hear me speak
I don't get no lovin'
And I'm restless for weeks
The Woman I love
Is a glass of wine
She got red rosey cheeks
They come straight off the vine
She don't love me any more
The Woman I love,
The Woman I love
