Church This Time

Take me to the church this time
I need to find that sound
Take me to the church this time
I need to find that sound
I know it’s a fine line
between high noon
and after midnight
moving north in my 64 Galaxie
I want to be with the stars
down 24th to Skidmore street
hoping to sneak in the back doors
JJ and the boys
are coming through
we can get there
you believe in me
cuz i believe in you
Please send me the spirit
I’m a sensitive kind
I know I can still hear it
though I’m past my prime
Theres a song
that’s always played
and I’m a man that’s never prayed
til now
Take me to the church this time
I need to find that sound
Take me to the church this time
I need to find that sound
I know it’s a fine line
between high noon
and after midnight

Cut Loose
04:14
|
|||
|
I’d run down pathways
Playing hide and seek
You’d throw stones
And then hide from me
You were a cool boy with a perfect smile
I was a fencepost watching mile after mile
You are California
Deep southern style ways
I’m Oregon evergreen
On misty days
You are California
Deep southern style ways
I’m Oregon evergreen
On misty days
CHORUS
So cut loose, woohoo
la la la la la
Cut loose, woohoo
Sha na na na na na
These roots are strong like bone
and moss covered stone
So cut loose
Because we’re not alone
We’d play like enemies
And fight like friends
You were my family
When I was your loose ends
You acted out your dreams
In the dark
I reacted to screams
Balling at the park
You are California
Deep southern style ways
I’m Oregon evergreen
On misty days
You are California
Deep southern style ways
I’m Oregon evergreen
On misty days
Wooooo
Back then we were beats of boys
Running in the rain for fun
Now we are men of melodies
Walking right into the sun
You are California
Deep southern style ways
I’m Oregon evergreen
On misty days
You are California
Deep southern style ways
I’m Oregon evergreen
On misty days

It Takes Three
03:45
|
|||
|
It takes three
on bended knees
to kill a man
just trying to breathe
It takes three
a no-knock entry
to kill a woman
just trying to sleep
Listen to the sound, sound, sound, sound, sound
of what's on the ground
Look around and see
It takes you, them,
and me
to kill the people
just trying to be
just trying to breathe
just trying to sleep
just trying to be

Tule Fog
03:55
|
|||
|
lost you in the Tule Fog
I lost you in the Tule Fog
A boy skipped along
Free unbound
As the dust valley
Song played
And the fog rolled on
His heart
pulses slow
It falls and floats
But his grey dreams
didn’t grow
I lost you in the Tule Fog
I lost you in the Tule Fog
A man looked and left
To rain soaked ground
As the blood valley
Voice cried
And the fog Followed on
His mind pulses fast
It shifts and shakes
But the boys pain
didn’t slow
I lost you in the Tule Fog
I can still hear that voice cry
in the Tule Fog

Franklin Roller
03:51
|
|||
|
the sidewalk is his open road
with passing cars his grey hair blows
finally focused on what’s ahead
and not behind
Franklin roller, roll on, roll on, roll on
he leaped over grape vines
but was tripped up by time
time grounded him in a chair
but not his pride
Franklin roller, roll on, roll on, roll on
So In the rain he rolls
and in this sun he just goes
he’s by himself, but not alone
as I drive by
Franklin roller, roll on, roll on, roll on

Polaroid

When I was young
And still had time with you
Driving slow down these state roads
Humming along to a Beatles tune
We stopped on the roadside
Looked over the canyon’s edge
I smiled with my child eyes
You saw yourself in the camera lens
Well you though it you could drive
You’d catch the wind
And I thought if I tried
Well you’d let me ink
Hey Jude on the tape deck
Hey dad are we there yet
CHORUS
You snapped on the spot
With every fight
You looked back at your boy
But sped past warning signs
You captured all of the lies
Framing the good times
And then wondered How it could be
I never saw what you could see
CHORUS
And set myself free
You took a thousand pictures
I have a thousand whys
Why did you have so many colors
But only show me your black and white?
CHORUS
And set myself free
Na Na Na Na Na Na

She's Driving Down
04:21
|
|||
|
She’s driving down
all the way
she’s driving down
all the way
South on 31
With empty arms
Where she held her son
In those loving arms
Now she’s driving down
all the way
Her head held high
But her heart is low
She’s saying goodbye
To all she’s known
Ooo all the way
She’s driving down
All the way
She’s driving down
south on 31
She’s driving down
She’s driving down
all the way
Looking in her rearview
Trying to leave it behind
Looking in her rearview
The fog is blinding white
All the way
We are getting through
We gonna get on through
She said I believe in you
And that little boy too
And this love we all share
Will get us all through
Get us all though
She’s driving down
All the way
She’s driving down
All the way
All the way

I Want More
05:14
|
|||
|
This might be a little outdated
But we gotta lay it down
I want what you’ve cultivated
And get these feet
right back on the ground
I hope you know you're appreciated
I see you and hear your heart
We are about to get more separated
But baby, you know you know
I want more
It’s getting more complicated
But we gotta keep pushing through
It’s not what we anticipated
I want this to be right and true
We've got something to be investigated
there’s a beat bouncing in my core
And I’m needing to be satiated
And, baby, you know you know
I want more
Gimme gimme
I need more than a taste
I need to see your face
Gimme gimme
Can you see me know?
Can you feel it now?
Gimme gimme
We all want to be satisfied
I need more than a taste
I want more
