ExiledInIllinois Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river, with a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the rail I think you'd better call John 'cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail And it's less than a mile away I hope they didn't come to stay It's got numbers on the side and a gun, and it's making big waves Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy Lou So the powers that be left me here to do all the thinking And I just turned twenty-two I was wondering what to do And the closer they got, The more those feelings grew Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring He told me, 'Red means run, Son, numbers add up to nothing' But when that first shot hit the dock, I saw it coming Raised the rifle to my eye Never stopped to wonder why Then I saw black and my face flash in the sky Shelter me from the powder and the finger Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger Just think of me as one you never figured, to fade away so young with so much left undone Remember me to my love I know I'll miss her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Yeah every time it seems like there ain't nothin' left no more I find myself having to reach out and grab hold of somethin' Yeah, I just catch myself wonderin', an' waitin', an' worryin' About some silly little thing that don't add up to nothin' And then she looks me in the eye, and says We're gonna last forever and ever And you know I can't begin to doubt it No, 'cause it just feels so good and so free and so right I know we ain't never gonna' change our minds about it, hey Here comes my girl Here comes my girl Yeah, and she looks so right She is all I need tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Sweet cream ladies, forward march The world owes you a living Sweet cream ladies, do your part, Think of what you're giving To the lost and lonely people of the night Out of need, they seek direction for their life They will love you in the darkness, Take advantage of your starkness, And refuse to recognize you in the light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheelThere's a voice in my head that drives my heelIt's my baby callin', says "I need you here"And it's a half past four and I'm shiftin' gear When she is lonely and the longing gets too muchShe sends a cable comin' in from aboveDon't need no phone at all We've got a thing that's called radar loveWe've got a wave in the air, radar love Edited June 19, 2019 by WhoTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
