Track #1 Paint the Town Red (with My Blue Heart)
So this time I know just what to do
And I might not act like you would want me too
You won’t find me hanging round
‘Cause this girl’s going out
Yeah this time I’ll paint the town red with my blue heart
So this time you don’t have to say it twice
But I’m sure I paid much more than your asking price
It’s a sad and simple waste I gotta drown you from my taste
So this time I’ll paint the town red with my blue heart
Cause my blue heart has cried enough for you
And it’s a shame what you have put us through
So don’t wonder where I’ll be found
I’ve gone to burn the whole world down
Yeah this time I’ll paint the town red with my blue heart
Red were your roses now spent ‘cause we’re through
Red is my lipstick I once wore for you
Blue is my new dress I’m wearing tonight
Blue are your tear drops, it’s your turn to cry
So this time you don’t have to scream and shout
That old door won’t hit my ass on the way out
But remember I love and when you’ve nothing left to d0
You can go and paint the town red with my blue heart
‘Cause my blue heart has cried enough for you
And it’s a shame what you have put us through
So don’t wonder where I’ll be found
I’ve gone to burn the whole world down
Yeah this time I’ll paint the town red with my blue heart

Album: Let’s Go Together
Track #2 Let’s Go Together
The days grow longer and the nights are worse
I’m oh so thread bare with an empty purse
Wicked on Monday woeful on Tuesday
Wasted on Wednesday, could it get any worse?
I broke a mirror what more can I say?
It rains on my house each and very day
Bad luck has found me bent down on one knee
Busted and broken there’s no hoping for me
So let’s go together and drink our selves sick
Let’s face the stormy weather by taking a trip
It’s wonderful it’s wild on cyanide
Let’s fiddle with the breaks and take a drive
So don’t say you won’t, don’t say you might
I don’t care if it’s wrong
Cause when I’m with you it’s right
We might come back you know so make a toast
It could be fun to wind up as a ghost
Dreaming of dying no harm in trying
We could be dancing dressed in nothing but bones
So let’s go together and jump off a bridge
Let’s write a suicide letter and then slit our wrists
Lets walk along the freeways at night
Let’s open up the stove and snuff the light
So let’s go together, Baby let’s go
So let’s go together, Baby let’s go
So let’s go together, Baby let’s go

Track 3 Paper Dragon
My heart is lonely, my soul is weak
My little bed with tangled sheets where sorrow sleeps
Your lies still stinging, your touch still sweet
Your love a quiet dying dream that’s not for me
I’ll take your pictures to the shore
And I’ll set them in the sea
I’ll take my hopes of what was once to be
There I’ll set them free
So down down down
Down down down down down down
My paper dragon drown with me
Under the waves in silent peace
Sinking away no one will see
Sunlight is fading, the sky it bleeds
Your smile like glass under gold sand that cuts my feet
I’ll take your pictures to the shore
And I’ll set them in the sea
I’ll take my prayers of what was once to be
And there I’ll set them free
So down down down
Down down down down down down
My paper dragon drown with me

Track 4 Clemency
He wears an ankle chain his life he’ll spend in pain
His back it breaks the stones inside a prisoners home
I know this man is good, he’s been misunderstood
Hey justice hear my plea, I say set him free
Away my heart goes to him upon the evening breeze
And I know I might lose him
So I pray for clemency
The time he’ll do is long because to kill is wrong
He saved me from disgrace, wish I could take his place
Now life he’ll have to serve because of one mans word
What else was he to do?
I ask wouldn’t you?
Away my heart goes to him upon the evening breeze
And I know I might lose him
So I prey for clemency
The night it comes to soothe him, day just comes too soon
I send my prayers to greet him, and warm his lonely room
My endless nights of weeping as I lay in our bed
Our sorrows just increasing for that jail will be our end
His cell is dark and cold, in there he will grow old
But through the bars he sees the moon light up the trees
His sorrow fills my soul my heart a beggars bowl
His fate I can’t believe, I say set him free
Away my heart goes to him upon the evening breeze
And I know I might lose him
So I prey for clemency

Track 5 Diamond Jack’s
Well the first thing I do when I’m down with blues
I grab a couple of girls with some trouble to brew
We go to Diamonds, the Diamond Jack saloon
And if your there to pick the tab up I might just sing for you
Bring me all the whiskey bring the red wine too
Put away the shot glass the bottle will do
Oh at Diamonds, The Diamond Jack saloon
Yeah Diamond’s, The Diamond Jack saloon
Rye, rocks, gin and vermouth
I like my rum scotch ninety-nine proof
Oh at Diamonds at Diamond Jack saloon
Yeah Diamond’s, The Diamond Jack saloon
If your day has been gray you can wash it away
Come and sit with your friends we know just what to say
Were down at Diamond’s at Diamond Jack’s saloon
And when you start to feeling better I’d like to dance with you
Bring me all the whiskey bring the red wine too
Put away the shot glass the bottle will do
Oh at Diamonds, The Diamond Jack saloon
Yeah Diamond’s, The Diamond Jack saloon

Track 6 No More Tears
The light in the window is a crack in the sky
A stairway to darkness in the blink of an eye
A levy of tears to learn she’ll never be coming back
The man in the dark will bring another attack
Your mama told you that your not supposed to talk to strangers
Look in the mirror tell me
Do you think your life’s in danger here
No more tears
Another day passes as the night closes in
The red light goes on to say it’s time to begin
I see the man around the corner waiting, dose he see me?
I close my eyes and wait to hear the sound of someone screaming here
No More Tears
So now that it’s over can we just say goodbye
I’d like to move on and make the most of the night
Maybe a kiss before I leave you this way
Your lips are so cold I don’t know what else to say
I never wanted it to end like this my love my darling
Believe me when I say to you in love I thin I’m falling here
No more tears

Album: Let’s Go Together
Track #7 You Are the Stars
You are the stars I find in heaven
The lucky number seven
The night in which the gypsy sings her tune
You make my little world complete
The smell of roses sweet
And everything is new
You are the stars, you are the moon
You are a silent wish come true
You are the day, you are the night
You are my one and only light
You are a quiet canyon path
A figurehead and mast
Upon a ship that sales a lovers sea
You are Great Plains under a sky
Alive with fire flies
And everything is new
You are the stars, you are the moon
You are a silent wish come true
You are the day, you are the night
You are my one and only light
You vision clear and real
Just like a lilly field
A summer breeze I’d like to call my own
So won’t you stay with me tonight
And we can reach a height
That some can only dream
You are the stars, you are the moon
You are a silent wish come true
You are the day, you are the night
You are my one and only light
You are my one and only light
You are my one and only light

Track 8 High Roller
High roller man, what cha’ tryin’ to do to me?
High roller man , you’ve been hanging round
I see right through, you know it’s plain
That you’re trouble by the score
Now I don’t care that you live up on the hill
And I don’t care that you drive a big car
I don’t care that you wear those fancy suits
And I don’t want you to make me a star
Mama gave me something special I know
It’s a lesson everyone has been told
Every man on this earth
Has to measure his worth by his good deeds
And not by his dough
High roller man, what cha’ tryin’ to do to me?
High roller man ,you’ve been hanging round
I see right through, you know it’s plain
That you’re trouble by the score
So you see that riches don’t impress me
I’m old fashioned even simple you see
Other girls in the world may want diamonds and pearls
But love has no price tag to me
Don’t misconstrue that I might like you
It’s of no use pick pocket smile
To bust this lock you would have to blow it
With more than what you’ve got
With more than what you’ve got
High roller man, what cha’ tryin’ to do to me?
High roller man ,you’ve been hanging round
I see right through, you know it’s plain
That you’re trouble by the score
High roller man, what cha’ tryin’ to do to me?
High roller man ,you’ve been hanging round
I see right through, you know it’s plain
That you’re trouble by the score

Track 9 Rain is All Around
Now when the clouds start coming
Don’t let it get you down
No need to fret and worry
No need to pout or frown
No reason for your sadness
No reason to be blue
Just listen to me singing
I’ll tell you what to do
You see rain was made for playing hooky
Rain is for sleeping in late
Take your time now don’t you hurry
It’s coming down to wash your blues away
Rain is falling all around and I can’t help but smile
Rain cleans the skies and streets for tomorrow’s sunny day
Thunder was made for sitting close and hugging by the fire
Lightening is just another way that nature can show off her style
And the cold cold winds and darkened skies
May look disastrous to you
But I think that storms so big and wondrous
Will chase all your darkness and gloom
Rain is falling all around and I can’t help but smile
Rain cleans the skies and streets for tomorrow’s sunny day
Rain falling all around
Rain hear that happy sound
Rain is falling all around and I can’t help but smile
Rain cleans the skies and streets for tomorrow’s sunny day

Track 10 How Many Nights?
How many nights have I laid in someone’s arms
Dreaming of you
How many days have I made my secret plans
One day we’d be two
How many nights I lay lying
How many days I dream of trying
How many times have I tried to turn my back
On a love I know is wrong
How many nights
How many nights haunt you
In some strangers arms
Why waste all your charms
When we could pull the blinds
And turn the lights down low
The lights are low, the lights are low
And times goes slow
How many smiles have I made across the room
Thinking I’d seen you
How many times have called your name instead
Loving someone new
How many wrongs I keep from rightin’
How many tears I keep from cryin’
How many times have I tried to turn my back
On a love I know is wrong
How many nights
How many nights haunt you?

Track 11 Not the Marrying Kind
Well I went to the gypsy woman
To see what her cards held for me
And as she laid each one out
She said with a shout
You won’t believe what I see
Girl he’s not the marring kind
So just put him right out of your mind
If you listen I’ll say
Your man likes to play
And he’s not the marring kind
I just had to go see my mother
‘Cause she always knows what’s best
With a tear in her eye
She nodded and sighed
My girl don’t you settle for less
Dear he’s not the marrying kind
So just put him right out of your mind
It’s right you should know
‘Cause he’ll hurt you so
And he’s not the marrying kind
He’s not the marring kind, ooo Lord
He’s not the marrying kind
You better take your sweet time
You’ve got the rest of your life
So next time that I saw my lover
While we sat one night hand in hand
So sweetly I spoke as I reached for my coat
I think there’s a change in the plans
See I’m not the marrying kind
So just put me right out of your mind
I’m sorry to say it’s just not your day
Cause I’m not the marrying kind
No I’m not the marrying kind
No I’m not the marrying kind

Out Of My Mind

Track 10 Out of My Mind
He bought a one way ticket on the northern line
He gonna ride that rail to the end this time
He’s wearing high white spats and patent shoes
He’s gunning for that girl with the devil’s own blues
He says, “I’m out of your arms and out of my mind
You can’t leave me behind
I’m out of your arms and out of my mind
Love like this should be a crime”
He loves her long sharp nails and fishnets too
He had to have that girl with the walk so cool
He held her close one time that much is true
But with a love like that one time just won’t do
He says, “I’m out of your arms and out of my mind
You can’t leave me behind
I’m out of your arms and out of my mind
Love like this should be a crime”
A burning down in his soul
A fire deep down below
A fire that when it grows you know
Nothing compares or comes close
He’s gone away to find her
But here’s the scoop
He’s not the only one looking for the truth
He swore he’d go stark mad if she weren’t his
When he found that note with a red lipstick kiss
It said “Your out of my arms and out of my mind
Please don’t think me unkind
You’re out of my arms and out of my mind
So many so little time, so many so little time
So many so little time”

Track 13 Black Wings
Out on my open windowsill
Comes a shadow cold and still
Leaning in to sing his song
In this world I won’t be long
Black wings are sweeping my soul away
Their feathers reaching here as I lay
I see his coal eyes they’re dark as night
His arms are reaching to take my life
So black wings fly, black wings fly
Oh turn him round
Far from my sight and keep me warm
All through the night
I don’t want to hear his song
Out on my open windowsill
Preening there with sharpened bill
God’s right hand has come for me
Why Lord now, how could it be?
Black wings are sweeping my soul away
Their feathers rustling here as I lay
I see his coal eyes they’re dark as night
His arms are reaching to take my life
So black wings fly, black wings fly

Track 14 Armageddon
Pull up a chair, we’re watching the world burn down
It’s just not fair the party should end quite so soon
Yeah it’s true
You had your vote now foxes are running the hen house
And up in smoke the whole world will dance to the tune
Just like you
Staring four horsemen in black business suits
And as they’re riding it occurs to you
That love is what we all were needing
Thought you’d heard it once before
Underneath the drummers beating for war
Armageddon
Brought to you by coke (caine that is)
Armageddon
Brought to you by oil and greed
Armageddon
Much better than soap
Armageddon will wash us all clean
Don’t touch that dial your in for the show of a life time
Death done in style the ratings will go through the roof
Here’s the proof
Staring four horsemen in black business suits
And as they’re riding it occurs to you
That love is what we all were needing
Thought you’d heard it said before
Underneath the drummers beating for war
Armageddon
Brought to you by hate
Armageddon
Brought to you by disparity
Armageddon
You don’t have to wait (there not twisting your arm)
Armageddon it’s practically free!
