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, 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 02:16
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)

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
