I live in the land of Family Dollar
Live in the land of fallen dreams
Living a life with constant strangers
Live in hope that's colored green
In rocks and streams
Looking out for all these things
I live in the land of Family Dollar
Keeping faith in others means
Watching as this once proud nation
Comes apart at broken seams
And fallen dreams
Calling out and making some noise
I'm calling out supporting a cause
Giving up on falling rains - Again
Live in the land of Family Dollar
Hoping we can make amends
Live in a land of disenchantment
Looking out for all my friends
It never ends
Living with carcinogens - Oh-oh-oh-oh
Calling out and making some noise
I'm calling out supporting a cause
Giving up on falling rains - Again
I live in the land of Family Dollar
Live in the land of fallen dreams
Living a life with constant strangers
Living the life of make-believe
Of rocks and streams
It comes apart at broken seams - Oh-oh-oh-oh

Never Never Never Know
Never Never Never Know
Never Never Never Know
Never Never Never Know
You wrote me a reminder
Of the hole in our sad story
Of questions left behind me
As I walked out the door
Never Never Never Know
No I'll never
Never Never Never Know
A simple situation
With romantic complications
Like why you couldn't hold me
How you held me before
Never Never Never Know
No I'll never
Never Never Never Know
You wrote back a letter
Cut a hole in my soul
You thought it was for better
as worse was staying home
Never Never Never Know
No I'll never
Will I ever
Tried to keep things together
But all I heard was you saying

Drinking And Lying
02:40
|
|||
Drinking and lying, and falling on down
I can't help myself
Drinking and lying, I'm falling, I'm dying
I'm crying out for help
I got lost in Louisiana, I was drowned in beer and wine
Oh but all ligging aside, I loved you alright
The goal was trying to stay upright
All in all, loving was just a game
Don't you know, I was loving you all the same
Drinking and lying, falling down
They are nothing but the same
Drinking and lying, consuming this guy
A kiss away from all the blame
But I know you're going to play a star
A name I know you've made
I'm going to stay in fashion
And it don't beat but the same
Don't you know, I was loving you all the same
All in all, loving was just a game
Drinking and lying, and falling on down
I can't help myself
Drinking and lying, I'm falling, I'm dying
I'm crying out for help
Drinking and lying, consuming this guy
A kiss away from all the blame
Don't you know, I was loving you all the same
Don't you know, I was loving you all the same

Distant Girl

Every sounds' a Distant Girl
I'm trying to hide my worries still
When I think of her name out loud
I know I hurt her, hurt her
Every night I need to know
Right after I finish another show
I'm thinking about her wondering oh
Do I still love her now
Don't let worry get you down Girl now Girl
Don't let it get so it surrounds you round you
Every minute means to me
The distance I make out to be
The constant name to who I see
A love kept underground
Don't let worry get you down Girl now Girl
Don't let it get too much around you round you
Here comes another day to spend
I'm trying again to be your friend
How can I ever make amends
To you, my Distant Girl

Alone
02:45
|
|||
I'm all alone, oh yes
I'm all alone and thinking of you
I got this feeling you never really think about me
I'm all alone, alone and sitting here in my home
Mountain blue sky living has come
For me, with my gratitude
Well I said I love you, I love you
But I had to move on and break free
I told you time and again I was a passionate heart
but you simply cut it out of me
So now I'm alone, living out here
All alone, with nothing to fear
Not a lot to say 'cos you really took it out on me, yeah, yeah
[Solo]
Closed fist or loving doll, oh you know you were doing it all
But my heart is broke, I can't understand why it took all this time to leave
But I'm alone, and feeling ok,
I'm alone, with nothing to say,
Except I'm reeling as I've still got funny feelings for you
Was it bad luck me falling for you
Or you falling for me
Or am I just a fool
(Oh, I'm all alone baby)

Love Changed Everything
02:22
|

While living in a dream
Believing I was thinking
My mind was made up. Nevertheless
It hit me hard in the head
Tumbled me right out of bed
Bled away my loneliness
Oh Yeah, Love Changed Everything
Everything came easy from the start
Oh oh, Love Changed Everything
Soothed away the blisters from my heart
Never dreaming of the day
When I needed to be to be certain that
I never thought I'd feel this way again
Hit me like a hurricane
Really tried hard to explain
It all, but I won't play the fool again
Oh Yeah, now Love Changed Everything
Everything felt easy from the start
Oh oh, Love Changed Everything
Soothed away the blisters from my heart
When nothings left of you
Every old is something new
There ain't no play book laying out the moves you need to do

I'm Never Going Back To Woodstock
I'll never relive the dream
I thought it brought a new tomorrow
A storybook kind of scene
Looking for the answer
To a consciousness's stream
But I'm Never Going Back, Never Going Back To Woodstock
I'm Never Going Back To Woodstock
Never felt I arrived
Thought the world was changing
A fairtale come alive
But all my friends told me
No use in hanging round
So I'm Never Going Back, Never Going Back To Woodstock
Looking back fifty years without tears
A united congregation
I'd never thought I'd get this far
But here I am
In this divided nation
And I'm Never Going Back, Never Going Back To Woodstock

Summertime in New Mexico
No-one's left behind
Summertime in New Mexico
Blue skies and the sun is shining
Go down the canyon
Down to Santa Fe
Cross to Las Vegas
And Santa Rosa
Gonna Be Alright
Summertime in New Mexico
Everything is good tonight
Summertime in New Mexico
Please take my advice
Go down Truth or Consequences
And up to Gallup
Grants and Soccoro
Deming and Las Cruces
No end in sight
Summertime in New Mexico
No-one's left behind
Summertime in New Mexico
It's gonna be alright
Cross to Mosquero
And Tucumcari
Fort Sumner
Clovis and Portales
Down to Silver City
Eat Hatch Chili
Back Bernalillo
And Albuquerque
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Summertime in New Mexico
Summertime in New Mexico
Visit Roswell
