with no shoes

Stone Me
And may you always have no shoes
And I would rather just for you
Be the devil, make you mine
And she, I know you say you hardly sleep
I make you cold I make you weak
I'll be the son of everything you hate
And come the day, I'll be the king
The king of all and everything
Your saint is coming thru
You know he's going to feed on you

I've been walking, with no shoes
Keep your mountain picnic blues
Today, I'm baptising you.

Stone me, and may you always have no shoes
And I would rather just for you
Be in a taxi driving miles from here
I've been walking, with no shoes
Fill my kidneys up with booze
Today, I'm killing you

The stars, who play with laughing sam goodnight
I know god is on your side
I'll be the devil make you, make you mine
and I
could always wait to shoot you down
I keep you underneath my crown
A side of beef should see you off to sleep
I've been walking
With no shoes
Kepp your mountain picnic blues
Today, I'm baptising you.
north country boy

Hey country boy, hey country boy
What are you sad about?
Everday you make the sun come out
Even in the pouring rain,
I'll come to see you
I'll save you, I'll save you
What do you care about, and she said "this and that"
What do I mean to you, I'll show you if you want
The truth
I can't remember, I don't know how to tell you
I love you
How many eyes must a young girl have,
I know she makes you cry I know she makes you laugh
I'll be good to you if I could I'd make you happy
If I had a son I'd be good to my daddy who loves you
but I bet it's not the same as your
North country boy.

Hey country boy, what are you sad about
I think we'll work it out
Even in the morning rain he'll come to see you
Hope your feelings are the same
How many ears must a young girl have
I know she hears you cry, I know she hears you laugh
Itchy and Scratchy come running up the alley
If you be good I'll be good to your daddy
Who loves you but I bet it's not the same as your
North country bou.

What do you care about if she says this and that
What do I mean to you I'll tell you if you want the truth
I threw it all away, don't remember where I put it
But I miss it all the same

How many eyes must a young girl have
I know she makes you cry I know she makes you laugh
I'll be good to you if I could I'd make you happy
If I had a son I'd be good to my daddy
Who loves you but I bet it's not the same as your
North country boy.
tellin' stories

I'll be there in the morning
Can't you see I'm tellin stories
My sweet angel's everlasting true love ways
I'll wait I sow the seed I set the scene
and I watch the world go by
See me go thru changes, revelations to
Blank pages
I'll find a brighter guide to see me through
And leaves fall to the ground turn to brown
Through the day just like you


Live for the day, I see your heart is empty
I got plenty
Joe, come ride with me,
I see your head is meant to be cemented its true
When the stories that you tell come back to haunt you

Come see me in the morning
Can't you see I'm telling stories
My sweet angel's everlasting true love ways
While others turn to others introduce you
and walk right on thru
It's just about know where you come from
being you and singing love songs can begin
to fill your day
I could lead you to the top don't stop I could
lead you there still.

Live for the day, I see your heart is empty
I got plenty
Joe, come ride with me
I see your head is meant to be cemented, it's true
When the stories that you tell come back to haunt you.
one to another

One to another, sister and a brother
And we're changing the way that you feel
Pleased to meet you, hope I never see you
I'd be at ease watchin' you sleep

Watchin' you smille
Love I adore you, always looking for you
And I'll be there whenever you need me
Be my spiderwoman I'll be your spiderman

I hear our day is comin', grows sweeter
Every year
Tomorrow could be too easy and today goin'
To be too near
Justice for believers
And love can keep the faith
I don't need you, I can't buy you I can't hurt you

One to another, peace to my brother
Always giving me his thing for free
It's sad to knock you, good to rock you
And I'll do it the best that I can

I hear our day is coming, gets sweeter every year
Tomorrow's gonna be too easy and today's gonna be
Too near
Trust is for believers, and love can keep the faith
I don't need you I can't buy you I can't hurt you

Stand by my accusations, I'll come clean
I don't need no vice. I know you want to
Keep me waiting, I think it's funny that you might
Love is hard to leave, and it's hard to never have
Can you please crawl out your window you and I'll give
you all I have yeah yeah yeah. Box up all our
records, a headfull of ideas, and a handfull of
Escape routes, they're gonna burn you.
you're a big girl now

All the people gather round and
See the sun set high leaders and your
Disused milk will quitely pass you by
What will it be my melody will set you free
I know you'd rather be with us than be with them
today. I could be alone with you while
All the pretty people watch the years go by.
And in your free world, you will sail on

Ooh... you're a big girl now (x2)

See through jet pilot eyes
Mysterioius and thin, like a raven
Breaking free from the towers they keep you in
What a scene it is to see you I would love to
Have you round. I will be alone with you
I will wait out on the streets watching wheels
Go by and with your new found freedom
You will sail on.

Ooh... you're a big girl now (x2)
how can you leave us

Darlin don't you cry, whatever is yours
is mine - all the pictures on your wall
I know you look up to them all. Usually
Love comes first, I watch as you twist and
turn. I could give you mouth to mouth
nd only the trust would come out.

Here I come how can you follow
It's only a gut feeling
I don't want to believe it.
How can you leave us? How can you bleed on us?

Darlin' you live to learn
Hanging on all our words. Promise me you'll
be home soon, I could rush thruough the city to you
Won't find you in this world catchin' dinosaurs
No saint will save you this time round
I only wish you were here with us.
Here I come how can you follow
It's only a gut feeling
I don't want to believe it.
How can you leave us? How can you bleed on us?
how high

How high, oh I can kiss the sun
Run a minute mile, while you hitchhike
Love shines a light, I'll be a winners cup
and I'm looking for the one who cut you up
You're not having me, you know the skies are mean
And I'm hoping for a way to free you, love
I'm fixing holes the ones you break up, come in from
your drive. And the hand that rocks you cuts you up
Like lyrics of your life.

I can't buy, what I've done before
I want to open up another door, gonna let you pass
I'm on another path, I want to be the king while
you zig zag on a holy road like Caine from Kung Fu
How high, oh I can kiss the sun

Hang on to your hopes my darling don't let them slip away
And the hand who holds you keeps you warm and helps
You live today
Love shines a light, and it takes and it hurts
I know I'm right, I can bend til I burst and love
shines a light and repays you with us, yeah too
Right I'm gonna pledge my time til the day I die

How high, oh I can kiss the sun run a minute mile
while you hitchhike, love shines a light, I'll be a
loving cup, I'll be down when you're down, I'll be up
when you're up you're not having me I know the skies are
mean and I'll be looking for a way to free you love

I'm fixing holes the ones you break up, come in from
your drive. And the hand that rocks you cuts you up
Like lyrics of your life.
Love shines a light, and it takes and it hurts
I know I'm right, I can bend til I burst and love
shines a light and repays you with us, yeah too
Right I'm gonna pledge my time til the day I die
only teethin'

I've been looking to save the city
Looks like the biggest thing
And it seems like you're not so real
as the songs you lgive
So you pack up your bags and leave
To what seems like a better dream
It's alright, we're only teethin, only young

Yeah since you came last week to say you're
On your way...
You don't have to say good luck cos I don't
Need it babe.

The occasional sin is like your music my friend
And the singer, he don't look me in the eye
Is there a soul in young things
Or in the people you meet
I know you're obviously misbelievin' what you're saying
Is only right

Yeah since you came last week to say you're
On your way...
You don't have to say good luck cos I don't
Need it babe.

Meanwhile, you're only dreaming
Me, I've got something to see in
A heartache's as good as you feeli it
And now you're on your own

I know I've been losing you
And it looks like I'll use you too
It broke into a million pieces overnight
I've been to the promised land
And I shook the almighty hand
He said it's alright, you're only teethin'
In my eyes.

Yeah since you came last week to say you're
On your way...
You don't have to say good luck cos I don't
Need it babe.
get on it

When you're and I'm feeling awry
And it's time to say goodnight
When you finally lay your soul to rest I'll
Be falling asleep on an empty street
No matter how you're feeling
You know you're never on your own

Hear the bells ring in the morning
As you crawl back from the church
All the builds go up to the sky
All the people goin' down to the ground
No matter how you're feeling
You know you're never on your own

And your boss is quietly hounding
As he creeps into your sleep
No voice or poet's pen can touch
What hits you in the morning
No matter how you're feeling
You know you're never on your own

You don't even have to answer the phone
Ain't nobody talking me down
I will destroy you
I've shown my soul come on
Ain't nobody listening to you
I'll be your eyes and ears
Get on it

title fight

Whatever helps you through the night
My paws keep going to turn on the satellite
Always look to the positive
I don't feel the pain while I'm watching
The title fight

How could I ever want to disown you?
I want to love and to have and to hold you
All the good in the world and you keep it
Under your thumb

Amphetamines will keep you thin
My heart beats faster and I'm climbing
The walls again
And I've been talking for miles on end or
Is it because every body is a friend

How could I ever want to disown you?
I want to love and to have and to hold you
All the good in the world and you keep it
Under your thumb

I have my freedom, and while I'm living
I know the world can't touch me
I could wait forever, love in vain, yeah
I will have you when your birthday comes

I am the sundance kid, coming to you
In the grooves with a positive
Is it because our talent's shining
Bound by the empire, follow the eskimo

How could I ever want to disown you?
I want to love and to have and to hold you
All the good in the world and you keep it
Under your thumb

I have my freedom, and while I'm living
I know the world can't touch me
I could wait forever, love in vain, yeah
I will have you when your birthday comes
two of us

When it's over it's last I don't mean good as in bad

There's two of us, outgrowin one another
Waiting for a subsitution. Yeah two of us who

Wonder where my sweet is at
Your eyes are smiling back
