Bloody 98:

Well I ride 400 horses trough a tunnel in the pines,
Dead dogs, patchy fog it's hard to see the lines
There's a cross at every curve to commorate.

Drivin back from Mobile on bloody 98.

I got a wife in Hattiesburg and a lover in Mobile.
God knows I'm spending half my life behind the wheel.
My pontiac is a panting horse, but I'm a running late.

Drivin back from Mobile on bloody 98.

Jackknife in the highway, 18 wheels up in the air. 
To late to hit my brakes, I'm already there.
So now I'm just another restless haint who lost his way.

Myrna Lee:

Well She's the only one I get up for
Go down to the station, she's a waiting there.
Myrna Lee, I'm alone in this city.

I saw a vision of Myra Lee, 
In a foggy dark window
Myrna Lee, Like it used to be.

Chorus: 
Your the only one I've waited for all this time. 
Myrna Lee, we're together, you and me.

Pretty Please:

Way back down the river road 
where the squitos breed.
A redhawk rides the high wind,
high above the trees.
Lazy Dog sleeps the day away, lougin in the shaaade.

No other place I rather be, 
and there ain't no other pretty faces I'd rather see. 
I'm down on my knees crying pretty please.

It's winter and the wind today is blowin round my ears.
I been hangin around for so long now, I'm the last leaf on the tree.
I'm not in the headlines
I gave it all there is
It's like I'm waiting in the wings...

Chorus:
Feels like I wadin in the weeds. 
Searching the sky until my eyes begin to bleed. 
I'm down on my knees cryin pretty please.

Black Dog:

I got a black dog by the name of Bill
We lives in a shack on the top of the hill
Sleeping all day, Howling all night
Don't you monky with the puppy or you'll get youself a dog fight

WellI don't know what I've been told
Got a big black dog, got a whole lot of soul
Running through a feild, lookin for a meal
You better run and ride from the beagle and Big Bill

A young rebel by the name of Frank
Got himself a bottle and took a little drank
Took a little drank, got a little drunk
Got bit by the black dog, had to blow a big chunk

A pretty young thing by the name of Katy
Said it ain't no fun being Franky's old lady
When he gets to drunk, acted like a punk
Can't get it up and give her that sweet funk

Generic America:

Some people want to tell me its fine.
Spend your whole life waiting in a line.
Well go ahead, join the living dead.
I've got a different plan for mine.

When the sun comes over the sea.
I'll tell ya where I'm gonna be
Ridin in the van with the rest of my band.
The wheels singing in my dreams.

Chorus:
Please fogive me if I can't learn to live in Generic America
Where the wavy fields got paved.
The kids are out looking for a rave, 
and the rest of us sat on our big fat ass,
watching the rose bowl parade.
Oh why can't you see, I can't be me in your Generic America, 
don't want to live vicariously, in a virutal reality.
Shopping malls and prison walls all look the same to me.

So don't try to tell me its fine.
don't try to tell me I'm wasting my time.
Everybody line up, piss in a cup,
you got to be out of your mind
Cause I'll do it any way I choose
All over your desginer shoes.
Beware of the ruffian who ain't got nothing
he ain't got nothing to loose.

Last words of Midnight Clyde:

Well the barber shops a buzz all heads are waggin
The girls upstairs peakin through the blinds
The boys inspect the blood stains on the wagon

Chorus:
The last words of midight clyde, on the day the died
So long boys, I'm a gonna make some noise, and if I take a dive,
catch ya on the flipside.

Ole' Swifty stands bewildered in the stable.
The boys just spit and wittle all day long.
His momma still lays a place at the dinner table.

Chorus

Ooohh, when the moon comes round, yeah.
Still see it, reflected in his eyes.
Deep and dark like the space around it.

Chorus

Babe:

I like the way you smile kinda shy and a little wild
I come runnin from a country mile to see your smilin face
And I like to hear you laugh spashing like a duck in you bubble bath
Move it on over and let me get in the tub, and I scrub all you troubles away.

Remember the night we met.
As I recall we where both pretty lit
You reached out and you plucked my string
and it ringin still
7 years and its still a gas
Alot of tears and alot of laughs
Lets stay together for ever and ever, 
come on and say you will.
Babe, Baaaabe

I like the way you look 
and I like the things you cook
Honey take the telephone of the hook
We got other fish to fry
Unplug the guitar turn off the amp
and lets plug up the lava lamp
Come over here and let me strach you back
and sing you a lulubye

And when your hair turns blue
I wanna rock on the porch with you
look athe kids they're wizzin bye
lookin for a thrill
god knows were not perfect yet
one things for sure, I got no regrets
Lets stay together for ever and ever, 
come on and say you will
Babe, Baaaabe
