02. Chartreuse

Chartreuse
You got the color that turns me loose
Chartreuse
That color just turns me loose
Better than Magenta
Better than Fuse
You got a shade that gets rid of the blues.

Chartreuse
Don't you know I like big Caboose
Chartreuse
You know I like that big Caboose
Its sure sweet,
Lights my fuse
Its sure sweet,
Lights my fuse

Chartreuse
That color just turns me loose

You got the blues baby

03. Consumption

Consumption
Ain't gonna find me here
Consumption
Ain't gonna find me here
I'm gonna find me a place where there ain't no nothing no feel

Consumption
I get down on me knees
Consumption
I get down on that knee
I seem to be mistreatin' killin' me by degrees

Consumption
Pour me one you please
Consumption
Pour me one you please
A run on the honkey tonk makes that one for free

Have another bottle
Make me who I wanna be
Have another bottle
Make me who I wanna be
Have another bottle
Make me who I wanna be

Consumption
Consumption
Consumption
Consumption

04. Over You

A chili wind is blowing
And I'm all covered up
With despair and desperation
And it just won't let me up
It's come in time to face the truth
And somehow I got to find the strength to move
I gotta get up and get over you

Another dawn it breaking
And the people pass me by
And they don't know how hard I'm making
And there ain't no place to hide
I've got to find some resistance, forgetting your existence
I've got to get up and get over you

If I could have one more chance
With you by my side
You know I would take back that moment
When we said goodbye oh yeah...

A chili wind is still blowing
And the sun it going down
And the streets are all in tears
And there not a soul around
It's coming time to face the truth
And it's so hard to say I I gotta to do
Somehow I got to get up and get over you
Ooh man ooo hey get over you hey get over you
I gotta get over you I gotta get over you ohhh...

05. Heartache In Blue

Yeah
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Cmon
I got it bad
Yeah so bad
I don't never want it no more
Baby
If it were me
You left me layin down on the floor

Only you (only you)
Yeah yeah you (yeah yeah you)
You left me left my heartache in blue

Well when you're good
Don't mean no good
Leavin my mind in a tangle
And that's the way
That's what I say
I'm crumblin all around and a wrangle

Sweet you (sweet you)
Sweet sweet you (sweet sweet you)
You left me left my heartache in blue

Oh well
You demon hair?
Slitherin down a blue red door
Chang chang
It's just a thang
Tie me up then keep me just until I'm gone
Only you (only you)
Sweet sweet you (sweet sweet you)
You left me left my heartache in blue

06. I Don't Wanna Lose, Lose, You

Sometimes it's hard to make things clear
Or know when to face the truth
And I know that the moment is here
I'll open my heart and show you inside
My love has no pride

I feel with you I've got nothing to hide
So open your eyes and see who I am
And not who you want for me to be
I am only myself, myself

I don't wanna lose you now
We're gonna get through somehow
I don't wanna lose you now or ever

Baby I've finally found
The Courage to stand my ground
But if you want me
I'll be around, forever

We all make mistakes, we all lose our way
But we stood the test of time and I hope
That's the way it will stay
It's all up to you, to tell me to go
'Cause it won't be me to walk away
When you're all that I know
And I know that

I don't wanna lose you now
We're gonna get through somehow
I don't wanna lose you now or ever and ever
Baby I've finally found
The courage to stand my ground

But if you want me
I'll be around, forever, forever, yeah , yeah

Don't wanna lose you , lose you now
We're gonna get through somehow
Don't wanna lose you now
Don't wanna lose you
Don't wanna lose you

07. Flyin' High

Well she likes the truck
I guess I'm in luck
She wears high heel cowboy boots
She'll slam a shot
Whatever you got
She walks the line makes no excuse

Fly high
I'm never satisfied
Fly high
I'm takin one last ride
Fly high
I'm bone dry and I'm waiting to die
Fly high
Don't you know its hard to signify

She likes to smoke
And she likes to toke
Axe her no questions and she won't have to lie
She likes to charge
Long as it's large
Make no mistake she got the evil eye

Fly high
I'm never satisfied
Fly high
I'm takin one last ride
Fly high
I'm bone dry and I'm waiting to die
Fly high
Don't know you its hard to signify

Fly high
I'm never satisfied
Fly high
I'm takin one last ride
Fly high
Jimi said I'm gonna kiss the sky
Fly high
You bad bad bad remission why

08. It's Too Easy Mañana

Just a one room country shack,
Lyin' here on my rack.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.
Bootleg whiskey, feeling fine.
It's good reason out of mind.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.
Oh this life is such a scene,
Ain't no worry mo manana.

I don't care maybe if I could.
Deal the shuffle in the cards,
Don't have to work that hard.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.

Now if I sleep out in the rain
I would call my ball and chain.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.
Will you miss me? I'm all wrong,
You hardly know I'm gone.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.
I spent bad luck times in jail,
I've been blowing out spitting nails.

I pack my sack and vanish when I could.
From my one room funky shack,
Better roll with me jack.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.
It's too easy, it's too easy to feel good.

09. Big Shiny Nine

Big shiny nine she's mine all mine
Flowin down the front of my old blue jeans
Big shiny nine she'll fall so fine
Waitin to impress my hippie queen

It's all right now
I'm fingering my big black shiny nine
Sticks and stones
Skeleton bones
Enough to make the dead jump and run
Encyclopedia ain't got what I need
Cause I'm waiting my to undress my hippie queen

It's all right now
I'm fingering my big black shiny nine
Nuts and bolts
Smith and wesson and colts
It's down to luger can't make a selection
Stealin steeds and film
Scrapin bottom again

Oh lord I'm headed in a direction
It's all right now
My shiny nine I have my shiny nine
It's all right now
I'm fingering my big black shiny nine

10. Have A Little Mercy

Have a little mercy
I want my baby back
Have a little mercy
Or give me cadialine
Have mercy miss Percy
Give me pa dozza back

Have mercy
Love me like a Big Rolls Royce
Have mercy
Love me like there ain't no choice
Have mercy miss Percy
Shucks, I'm gonna just cook somethin' for ya.

Have a little mercy
I feel like diamonds and pearls
Have a little mercy
I feel like diamonds and pearls
Have mercy miss Percy
You're driving me out of this world

Well if you will have a little mercy
You have the time.
Have a little mercy
Have mercy
'Coz you're mine all mine
