You’re so good
You’re so fine
I want you
To be mine
I just want you to stay, by my side
You’re so hot
You’re so cold
I’ll keep you
Till I’m old darling
The best thing I ever had, in the world
First time I met you some years ago
I wasn’t sure that it’s what I needed
But then I learnt to get used to you my dear
Your taste on my mouth is sour
I just want you even more
Wake up in the morning, leave bed in the afternoon
My days are blurry and few
I just want some time with you
When I’m feeling high you seem to go on running dry
You’re so good
You’re so fine
I want you
To be mine baby
I just want you to stay, by my side
You’re so fine lookin’
You’re so mind bogglin’
When I smell you darlin’
Well life is just cookin’
Well now who’s get up to say I ain’t deservin’
You know I crave that fancy taste
To keep your love I just can’t stop buyin’
But I don’t care ‘cause my love is strong since I found
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, don’t you ever leave me
Whiskey, I love what you do to me, make me feel so dangerous and free.

Waste Of My Time
02:53

Let me tell you ‘bout a thing or two that I picked up in school
The more you learn the less you can think that’s just the way it works
This is a waste of my time
Everyone is just the same
Can't find anything that is real
I'm sinking in loneliness
I have learned how to cook and how to feel so cheap
I know which bus to take and I know all the shortcuts, just a beggar's glee
This is a waste of my time
Everyone is just the same
Can't find anything that is real
I'm sinking in loneliness
I have learned that it's good to have friends who can get you anywhere
And I have learned that when you finish school you get that nothing's changed
This is a waste of my time
Everyone is just the same
Can't find anything that is real
I'm sinking in loneliness
So let me tell you ‘bout a thing or two that I picked up in school
The more you learn the less you can think that’s just the way it works

Deep Depression

Deep depression deep depression
No fun
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
Can't escape it can't forsake it
Can't time it anticipate it
I'm reluctant to possess it
Oh
I sleep with it wake in it
I wear it and inhale it
It's my number one talent with a guaranteed commitment
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
I thought I would marry
I would make a lot of money
But nothing of that came true
I believed I was special
All I got was a hammer
Blow to my life
Deep depression
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
Oh take me away far from here
Oh sink me in the sea so I can't be found
No fun
No fun
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
That's where I come from
That is who I've become
Deep depression deep depression
No fun
No fun

How come I can never
Say what I truly mean
Every time the words they stumble
When I’m in company
Something is wrong with me
Wish I could make it stop
If someone would find a cure I’d gladly take it
This feeling I can’t shake it
I can see all the
Smiling faces
They look so happy in their
Secured places
Something is wrong with me
Wish I could make it stop
If someone would find a cure I’d gladly take it
This feeling I can’t shake it
Every night it feels like
There’s something I missed
Another day gone by
Without me fixing it
Something is wrong with me
Wish I could make it stop
If someone would find a cure I’d gladly take it
This feeling I can’t shake it
If someone would find a cure I’d madly drink it
This feeling I can’t shake it

Written by Hank Williams
---
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night so long
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud
To hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die?
Like me he's lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry

Monkey Tour Paranoia
03:17
|
|||
|
Hey there kid, you play hardcore
Get your kit, an' join me for a tour
The city lights increase severe sleeplessness
Thomas Edison has made us sleep less
The city lights make me restless
And I feel…
Like a monkey
Never been to Tennessee
But in Texas I dropped LSD
The motel receptionist is callous
An idle pussycat stray from Dallas
With sullen eyes of shiftlessness
And I feel…
Like a monkey
Just put me in a tree
And throw bananas at me
Albuquerque to San Francisco Bay
But eastward to my sweet home I pray
Inside the van the band mates grow reckless
Time to end this monkey touring business
Inside the van in the mirror
I can see…
A full grown monkey
Just put me in a cage
An' end my manic phase

Love Season Blues
04:10
|

|
I’m searching for my love she is hiding somewhere
Searching for my baby, summer’s on its way
But here comes the winter the fall’s gone away
And I ain’t got no love
Blackbirds singing, stars shining bright
Night is cool and people outside
But in comes the cold and into their homes they go
And I ain’t got no love
The sun is high waves hitting on the shore
Girls in white dresses not waiting anymore
Cause sky’s getting dark and the leaves a-fallin’ down
And I ain’t got no love
Irises spring pines howl in the wind
Thunderbolts tap dance in wild refrain
Seasons may change yet my blues still remains
Cause I ain’t got no love
There is no love that is waiting for me
There is no love that is waiting for me…
Cause I don’t have anyone
And I ain’t got someone

Up and down this lonesome town
No one with to walk around
Nothing to do but sing and shout
Like my old man just hang about
The rooster crows at the break of dawn
In my dreams I gun it off to Kingdome Come
When I finally get up I take off my sheets
A glass of bourbon 'fore I'm back asleep
My days go slow I just ramble by
Pass judgments around like a hobo spy
My friends are all weird, comment on my beard
What's it to you, just, just go away
My neighbors don't like me I make too much noise
But I don't care I got a lotta poise
My colleagues aren't cute please press on the mute
Can't a brute with a suit ship 'em all to Beirut?
Sometimes the reserves they pick my name
I wish they would go back from whence they came
You see I had one woman she was mighty fine
But they called me down to the desert line
When I came back up I was tired as a bull
But my woman was gone she would not hold
Me I was all red and tan
She was all happy because she was with another man
A woman here an' a woman there
Sorry ladies you don't fit the bill
You're trying so hard to put a good impression
But nothing will help you you're a big depression
My one girl lives in some far off land
I can't go back there it's where I'm banned
I wonder if she remembers me at all
But it don't matter I'm here and that is all
I need to go out on the road
Before darling I'm gonna get too old
I don't know what I'm going to find
But it sure as damn gonna be all mine
Nowhere to go an' nowhere to hide
Just me and my guitar right by my side
Trying to find a better use of my time
Just writing songs and makin' a dime
Got no money in my pockets got nowhere to go
I'm stuck here darlin' that's all I know
Can't find no job I'm losing my mind
I'm too kind might as well go blind
My confidence is shakin' an' I feel like I'm a-breakin'
I'm not faking my mind is now achin'
Up and down this lonesome town
Trying to say goodbye, so-long, I'm gone.

Waiting And Despair
02:52

My heart was beating fast
It ain’t doing that anymore
It stopped not too long ago
Cause I’m not feeling nothing no more
There’s no place for being bold
I tried reaching out for a hold
It just broke as fast as it could
The wheel’s a-turning as I’m always told
Dancing all through the night
The day came with a brand new fight
Excitement turned to delight
I keep losing my way to the light
I can’t even draw the lines of her face
I just remember that nonchalant grace
Am I the Jack or the Ace?
No time for some chess-mate
Now I just have to wait
Like those many times before
Hoping for maybe something new
I’m back to being out in the blue
Just come back and take me for a ride
There is no reason to hide
The dawn released from a bow
I don’t want you to go.

Ronnie Lane

All my life I looked for a song
Be it in the stars or across the ocean
Record stores they’re dying
No more faces to be showing
When you show kindness you’ll be let down
If you’re trustful, turn you around
And now you’re threadbare
To your bones
Oh Ronnie Lane
How could you be so plain
With the beautiful songs that you sang
A rock and roll star
A gypsy hill man
Always with a friend
And a woman on his side
If you want to learn now
Don’t hesitate to take that road
Always stay young
So lively full of dreams
Oh Ronnie Lane
How could you be so plain
With the beautiful songs that you sang
