Sugar 03:53
Oh, oh, long river flow, take some cane way my ol' mind Oh, oh, long river flow, take your time and I'll take mine I can't believe that we forgot to blame ourselves For putting all that sugar in your veins Brothers, sister, mama, we're all the same We're all just fight'n' to keep the sugar from our veins We drown the difference, burn it, that's our name Nothing's changed Ooo We broke your skin to rake the past away Too many roots for us to bend and change Uranium and crude to say it straight On land where brothers used to graze Sixty thousand working hands to blame And damned to tame the way she ebbs and wanes I can't see you from All the heights that we have claimed Pulpits, podiums and pills With walls and falls and rules And rules for making change We all raged Like the fire 'neath a falling winter's rain That came to drown the sounding of our names In tainted tales and seeds for shady change Alone at night, the whispers keep you sane Histories like symphonies in a presently deranged Wet and wine and burn in holy names 'Til we all look the same

Vagabond 01:57
Train go wahoo, train go wahoo Train go wahoo, train go wahoo Out of this town, out of this town She's gotta get outta this town Twenty-four years old with nothing on her back She's got nowhere to go, she's not coming back She longs to be a vagabond, she longs to be a vagabond Train go wahoo, train go wahoo Train go wahoo, train go wahoo Out of this town, out of this town She's gotta get outta this town

You were bound to a man who was bound to his bed With a mouth full of hands and regrets made of lead A litany of thoughts, not a leak of my lips 'Cause I buried your mum and I buried your pops But I buried you first like the source of all crops Rang a fast, rendered poem You should hear the low godless growl You should hear the low godless growl The year you were born the year that you died Relief on the face of stone when it shown That dash is all we have known When it shown, when it shown Like the hymn of our minds Let it shine let it shine Our feet in the sand and the emerald tide Some things you swallow them whole The hymn of our minds Let us shine let us shine The miners they mine with the Gem of a soul But this here’s a mine for coal So I’m told Some things they’ll swallow you whole Some things you swallow them whole

Walking Cane 01:44
Hand me down my walking cane Hand me down my walking cane Hand me down my walking cane I'm going to leave on the midnight train 'Cause all my sins are taken away I got drunk and I got in jail I got drunk and I got in jail I got drunk and I got in jail But I had no one to pay my bail 'Cause all my sins are taken away Beans was tough and the meat was fat Beans was tough and the meat was fat Beans was tough and the meat was fat Oh my Lord I couldn't eat that 'Cause all my sins are taken away If I'd listened to what my mamma said If I'd listened to what my mamma said Oh if I'd listened to what my mamma said I'd be sleeping on a feathered bed 'Cause all my sins are taken away

Scatter the rain, water the dark It's easy for us to be apart Glow in the day, roast in the night All I know is all that's in sight Baby on time, young hope expires Bending over a bed of coals Linen the train, cripple the cane Break your candy trails home Frosting the flower, restless for hours Fall on the boat, and float away Sad in the day, warm in the night You know I'll never grow old You had it all before You let it fall, let it fall We're a smear through time Poignant when we shine

This is the day Patrick Swazy died Oh this is the day, Patrick Swazy died Low to your mama, by and by Oh this is the day that Patrick Swazy died Go tell your sister, dry your eyes No more lifting baby in the sky Swazy and Jackson catching fire flies Cause these are days of Patrick Swazy’s eyes
7.
First sight of you when I awake in the morn', could not be better Touch on my skin never wanting it to end, feeling the comfort Morning to midnight whether here or there always on my mind Looking in your eyes not a black hole but a sea, calming and wondrous Silence we embrace true testament of us, comfort we share Morning to midnight whether here or there always on my mind Never a goodbye always see you later, hopeful future Only a dream hauntingly realistic to be forgotten
8.
Some broken, stay broken Some shocks come real slow What’s there to really do for you, If it ain’t sharing, one can’t take no giving to On a path turning woe Sleeping in arcades with unholy ghosts, Should have’s and gone Combing molasses with a babies breath, On a path turning woe Just a shadow, if’n we push through Looks like hell when you can’t move We can name all the children, call-in the clouds Never knew how much or for who. Tuck in forever, tussle playful hair And that’s the deal breaker Oh, how I couldn’t bare I can make you quit this God I know how A monument to labor and we ain’t working And that’s a deal breaker
9.
To the wards of past time I implore A request from captain's chair The final Inquiry As to the space ship of my desire For this I have sought your council I am the great captain famed of cape And laser pistol My hour, a thousand hours My utterance a volume Like all good captain's I bare the alms of a storied life My song a cadence like mud and lightening Not the first, but the first for each More mud than lightning Great gravity calls Requesting captain's chair My hour, a thousand hours My utterance a volume Like all, good captains I bare the alms of a storied life My song a cadence Like mud and lighting

No Sympathy 02:58
Mamma doesn't need our sympathy Mamma doesn't need our sympathy She sweeps she sweeps she cleans She drifts she drifts she dreams Her children all asleep She cleans she cleans she cleans Mamma doesn't need our sympathy Mamma doesn't need our sympathy She grows she grows she feeds Her children are all pleased She's taking none to eat She feeds she feeds she feeds Mamma doesn't need our sympathy Mamma doesn't need our sympathy Everything we throw in the river floats down stream Straight into our mamma's mouth And through her liver and spleen She's filtering filtering She cleans she clean she cleans Mamma doesn't need our sympathy Mamma doesn't need our sympathy

Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How the hell will love find us here? Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How will we make another year? Tossing away all the old mystery Collecting and keeping all the things we can see Everything is real The magic’s worn thin You taught me to fight But I learned how to win Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How the hell will love find us here? Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How will we make another year? There’s a million gone heroes just a waving at me Like the wind-licken grass in the soft summer’s breeze We pushed till it broke, she’d laid us right down Like the words in your head when there’s no one around Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How the hell will love find us here? Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How will we make another year? Labor of love our muscles sure heave I’d swear there were rocks in the hem of our dreams I’d swear there were stones in the hem of our years Singing oh my darling oh my dear Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How the hell will love find us here? Singing oh my darling, oh my dear How will we make another year? There’s a million gone heroes just a look’n and wave’n at me Like a land locked pirate forced to sail without the sea
