Head Down

Head Down – I’m gonna make my hammer, make my hammer ring
Let down by the radio playing a song I wouldn’t sing
Head down at rabid pace just to pay what I owe
Wrapped up in a sad man’s face and a poor man’s glow
Getting left out in the cold
Hard up big time and undersold
Breaking up hard rocks and I’m getting rolled
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Head Down - I’m gonna break my bones
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Head Down - on my way to the bottom, the bottom of the pile
And now I’m digging my grave with a nail and a crooked smile
Head down as I take my place up against the wall
Cuz I was taking up space when they made their call
What’s this I hear about the good old days?
Rockin' the blues in so many ways
Now three give an order, and one obeys
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Telling tall tales and spitting chrome
Another round in the Thunderdome
I don’t know when I’ll be getting home
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Head Down - I’m gonna break my bones
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Head Down - I’m gonna break my bones
Head Down - I’m gonna make no money
Head Down - I’m gonna break my bones
Head Down – I’ll make no money
Head Down - I’m a’ break my bones
Head Down - I’m a’ make no money

Goin' down on a Friday night
Sun's going down and I'm losing the light
I come from the land of the garbage bag trees
I stand on guard for thee
And I've had it up to here
No more empty thoughts it’s oh so clear
Well it might get heavy
So you better get ready
Well it might get heavy
So you better get ready
Alright
Never let your fears take hold
They'll swallow you up and eat you whole
It doesn’t matter if you're 38 years old
Or trapped in the back of an aqua truck
And I've had it up to here
No more empty thoughts it’s oh so clear
Well it might get heavy
So you better get ready
Well it might get heavy
So you better get ready
Well it might get heavy
So you better get ready
So you better get ready
Cuz it's gonna get heavy

Shake

Reimburse the universe
Incarcerate the interest rate
Iron clad for the rest of your life
Why's the pen always stronger than the knife?
Rebel, Rebel
Shake with the devil
Rebel, Rebel
Shake
Funny money rules the sky
Turn you over to see your white eyes
Lining up for your dividends
With your worn out dancing shoes
and your so called friends
Rebel, Rebel
Shake with the devil
Rebel, Rebel
Shake with the devil
Shake
Rebel, Rebel
Shake with the devil
Rebel, Rebel
Shake with the devil

Bad Thing

I did a Bad Thing
Mothers and priests - stay away from me
I did a Bad Thing
Mothers and priests - stay away from me
Maybe I’ll buy a boat and sail to sea.
I did a Bad Thing
Mothers and priests - stay away from me
I did a Bad Thing
Mothers and priests - stay away from me
Maybe I’ll buy a boat and I’ll sail to sea.
Met a string of heartless girls
and they line the winding road
Met a string of Dartmouth girls
and they line the winding road
When I’m on my boat, my heart won’t carry no load.
Got a post card from the devil
All it said was “See you soon
”Got a post card from the devil
All it said was “See you soon”
In the day the sun is my friend
In the night the light of the moon.

King of the Road

He said sit on down I'm the king of the road
Drove a thousand miles played a thousand shows
He had dark yellow teeth and blood shot eyes
Listen to me fella I'm one of a kind
He said I'm the king of the road
and I don't know when I was last home
and I'm always on the run
Loading up your gear from empty bars
Keep your nose clean or you won’t get far
Younger blood will come you wait and see
So don't forget your coffee and your hotdog tea
He said I'm the king of the road
and I don't know when I was last home
and I'm always on the run
He said I'm the king of the road
and I don't know when I was last home
and I'm always on the run

I Feel You
06:53

I seen a lady with a wounded step
That concealed a wreck
Extended hands, what’s your name, whats your plan?
Where does your shadow stand?
Broken dreams, your face shows hurt
Live through a child to get back your worth
Old fashion cycles that keep us around
Where will you be when your shadow’s down?
And I feel you (I feel you)
And I feel you movin’ on
(I keep moving, I keep moving)
And I watch you (I watch you)
And I watch you movin’ on
Met a man with a forced hand
Who had to sell all his land
Asked himself “Can it get any better?”
That’s what he wrote in his final letter
And I feel you (I feel you)
And I feel you movin’ on
(I keep moving, I keep moving)
And I watch you (I watch you)
And I watch you movin’ on
(I keep moving, I keep moving)
And I feel you (I feel you)
And I feel you movin’ on
(I keep moving, I keep moving)
And I watch you
And I watch you movin’ on
And I feel you
(I keep movin)
And I watch you
(I keep movin)
And I feel you
(I keep movin)
And I watch you
(I keep movin)
And I watch you
(I keep movin)
And I feel you
I see the light (soft)
I keep moving
I see the lie
I keep moving
I keep moving
I see the light
Running from the fight
Into the night
I see the lies
Running from the fight
Into the night
I see the night
Running for the light
Into the fight
I see the night
Running for the light
Into the fight
I keep moving
I keep moving on
