"Be With You"

Crossin' the river in a big old boat,
With a dollar bill in my hand.
Gonna go fishin' in the afternoon,
Got a simple plan.
Oh yeah, baby.

I got to hold on,
I got to be strong,
I got to live long,
And be with you.

Lonely nights and lonely days,
When I'm not with you.
Learned to trust and I learned to give,
Found a love that's true.
Oh yeah, baby.

I got to hold on,
I got to be strong,
I got to live long,
And be with you.

Girl it shouldn't be too hard,
To live with you.
It's really not complicated,
Until I get the blues.

Come on over and sit right down,
Let me take your hand,
I got a love gonna fill you up,
Take you to the promised land.
Oh yeah, baby, oh yeah.

I got to hold on,
I got to be strong,
I got to live long,
And be with you.

Be with you baby,
Be with you baby,
I got to be with you babe.
Be with you baby, oh alright.

Lonely nights, lonely days,
When I'm not with you babe.
Learned to trust and I learned to give,
Found a love that's true, babe.
Oh yeah, baby.

I got to hold on now,
Got to be strong now,
To be with you.
Be with you baby,
Be with you baby.

"Beautiful Bluebird"

One mornin' when I was ridin'
In my old pickup truck
A beautiful bluebird
came flyin' down
My eyes caught the color
As it lead me down the road
Dippin' and bobbin' in the sun
I've never seen that blue before
'cept in one place
And she's not
here with me right now
So I followed all the way
To the top of the hill
That's where she
kept on climbin' Lord
Someday I will

Beautiful bluebird
See how she flies
Looks like she's
always goin' home
If heaven had a window
Where the sun
came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird
I'd come flyin' back to you

Well it kind of struck me funny
Sort of made me smile
After all these years
on this old road
How God could show me somethin'
Never say a word
There's so much
that I don't know
I've never seen that blue before
Except in one place
And she's not
here with me right now
I followed all the way
to the top of the hill
That's where she
kept on climbin' Lord
And someday I will

Beautiful bluebird
See how she flies
Looks like she's
always goin' home
If heaven had a window
Where the sun
came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird
I'd come flyin' back to you

Beautiful bluebird
See how she flies
Looks like she's
always goin' home
If heaven had a window
Where the sun
came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird
I'd come flyin' back to you

"Better Than Silver And Gold"

Workin' hard every day
Never notice how
the time slips away
People come, seasons go
We got something
that'll never grow old.

I don't care
if the sun don't shine
And the rain keeps pouring
down on me and mine
'Cause our kind of love
never seems to get old
It's better than silver and gold.

I used to have a treasure chest
Got so heavy that I had to rest
I let it slip away from me
Didn't need it anyway
so I let it slip away.

I don't care
if the sun don't shine
And the rain keeps pouring
down on me and mine
'Cause our kind of love
never seems to get old
It's better than silver and gold.

I don't care
if the sun don't shine
And the rain keeps pouring
down on me and mine
'Cause our kind of love
never seems to get old
It's better than silver and gold.

"Big Parade"

I don't wanna get personal
Why have you put me on the spot?
I don't know how you feel
But for me it's getting hard
Swimming in the deep blue sea
Marching in the big parade

All I need is a little shade
Standing in the light of love
Standing in the light of love

Doesn't matter who you are
Or who you're not
All it takes is a little love
To make a handout worth a lot
Swimming in the deep blue sea
Marching in the big parade

All I need is a little shade
Standing in the light of your love
Standing in the light of love

Drowning in the deep blue sea
Drudging in the long parade

All I need is a little shade
Standing in the light of your love
Standing in the light of love

Standing in the light of love
Standing in the light of love

"Big Room"

Welcome to the big room
Everything's alright.
People, welcome to the big room
'Cause everything's alright.
It's alright,
It's alright, It's alright.

Don't have no cameras in the big room
Too much for one lens to see.
Don't allow no cameras in the big room.
Too much for one lens to see.

There's always tellers in the big room.
Every day and every night.

"Born To Run"

I see the light
of a thousand lamps
burning in your eyes
Still I have to turn away
for you to stay alive

'Cause I was born to run
I was born to run
I was born to run
I was born to run run run

Security had a hold on me
I had a thousand friends
But reality wasn't told to me
And I found out in the end

'Cause I was born to run
I was born to run
I was born to run
I was born to run run run

"Box Car"

I'm just a passenger
on this old freight train
I ride the boxcar
through the night
I doesn't matter
where I might get off
I doesn't matter where I lie.

I've been to cities,
I've been to countries
I've left a lover in many towns
I don't care if
I ever get back to
Where I'd already been around.

I'm like an eagle,
I like to fly high
I'm like a snake,
I like to lay low
I'm like a black man,
I'm like a white man
Maybe a red man, I don't know.

I'm just a passenger
on this old freight train
I ride the boxcar
through the night
I doesn't matter
where I might get off
I doesn't matter where I lie.

"Bright Sunny Day"

If you wake up in the morning light
Something doesn't seem
or know is right
Lay back and let your feeling show
Come on and let the people know
Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

Just ?? money
Your baby ??
??
Now come on boys,??
Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

Bad news is just an excuse
Get down and
let yourself keep loose
Go on and live for tomorrow
So much spent today in sorrow
Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

"Broken Arrow"

The lights turned on
and the curtain fell down,
And when it was over
it felt like a dream,
They stood at the stage door
and begged for a scream,
The agents had paid
for the black limousine
That waited outside in the rain.
Did you see them,
did you see them?
Did you see them in the river?
They were there to wave to you.
Could you tell that
the empty quivered,
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
That were crowded and narrow,
Held a broken arrow?

Eighteen years of American dream,
He saw that his brother
had sworn on the wall.
He hung up his eyelids
and ran down the hall,
His mother had told him
a trip was a fall,
And don't mention babies at all.
Did you see him, did you see him?
Did you see him in the river?
He were there to wave to you.
Could you tell that
the empty quivered,
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
That were crowded and narrow,
Held a broken arrow?

The streets were lined
for the wedding parade,
The Queen wore the white gloves,
the county of song,
The black covered caisson
her horses had drawn
Protected her King
from the sun rays of dawn.
They married for peace
and were gone.
Did you see them,
did you see them?
Did you see them in the river?
They were there to wave to you.
Could you tell that
the empty quivered,
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
That were crowded and narrow,
Held a broken arrow?

"Burned"

Been burned
and with both feet
on the ground,
I've learned
that it's painful
comin' down.
No use runnin' away,
and there's no time
left to stay.
Now I'm finding out
that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

Flashed
and I think
I'm fallin' down,
Crashed,
and my ears
can't hear a sound.
No use runnin' away,
and there's no time
left to stay.
Now I'm finding out
that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

Now I'm finding out
that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

Burned
