Arnie's Daddy said he'd take him fishin'. If he'd just dig the bait. He said, "Get lost, Dad, I'm watchin' mud wrestling. Go jump in the lake. . Why don't you take that neighbor girl?.
Well the last thing I need, is a lazy housewife. If your gonna lay around and sleep all day. You better work third shift a night. In a carpet mill or a truck stop, even if it's for minimum wage.
Please help me I'm falling in love with you. Close the door to temptation don't let me walk thru. For I should't want you. But darling I do. Please help me I'm falling in love with you.
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso. I fell in love with a Mexican girl.. Night-time would find me in Rosa's cantina;. Music would play and Felina would whirl..
Meet me in the garden where the weeds grow tall. Down by the gate. I got a secret that I might tell. It'll give me away. . Ooo whatever you do. Ooo keep it with you.
You only know what I want you to. I know everything you don't want me to. Your mouth is poison, your mouth is wine. You think your dreams are the same as mine.
I'm just a punchy bareback rider in the rodeo I climb the gate grab my rig and go. The horse explodes from the chute kickin' at the sky. I fall back kick his neck pull on my arm and try.
There's a full moon risin' in the prairie sky tonight. Lord it's good to be on my way home. Over that horizon, she keeps the home fires burnin' bright.
At seven this morning I got on the phone. And said to hold my Bronc as long as you can. My car broke down in Billings and they just got it back together.
She was painting a picture of slum life. When the cowboy came limping by. Wearing tattered old boots with one sole gone. And a far away look in his eye.
Well I've been sitting here just thinking. Dealing with my feelings about leaving. Trying to keep from drinking. And every day I pray that I make it through one more day.
Hey, hey turn up that song. I think about you when it comes on. And I get lifted off the ground. And when you're in my arms. I feel the beat down in my heart.
(Vic Chesnutt). I was shaking with laugther. scared the bratty children. did I destroy the ambience. I'm sure for that hoity-toity patron. it wasn't pretty when I looked into the face.
(Vic Chesnutt). where did you go after the parade. I wandered, searching for about an hour. then I parked it on a bench. shifting and sulking. those pesky little mosquitoes.
Honestly, I can't believe the magic you do. Never seen anything as lovely as you. I was so afraid, I was so alone an' blue. I took you in my arms, now I'm goin' home with you.
Well, I got a picture. It's glued in a book. Of most of my family. That somebody took. . Well, grandpa died early. Before I could know. The man that they tell me.
Deep in the silence of the misty night. Broken by the lazy drone of an airplane in flight. Layin here beside you and the whole world's right. Got that lovely little thing called peace of mind.
I met a man at the airport. Going home cause his brother had died. I tried to soften his sorrow. He smiled at me and replied. . We're all passin through.
Life is leading us to different places. When you're gone I don't know what I'll do. I will learn to smile at other faces. But part of me will always be in love with you..
Oh that proof is in the kissing in the kissing in the kissing. And lately you ain't proving much to me. You tell me that you'd rather die before you let me go.
