Chrs: It's the Worst Low Down Feeling that I know It's the Worst Low Down Feeling that I know I'ts like your whole world is going somewhere and you ain't invited with it It's the Worst Lowdown Feeling that I know. We were down in Lubbock when she told me she couldn't take it anymore, my gypsy kind of ways She had her suitcase packed up, with all of her possessions and it was bulging in an explosive kind of way I said to her "Hey Baby What about those kisses don't tell me that they don't mean a thing." She said to me " Hey BAby? Don't you give me no hey babies! as far as I'm concerned those kisses hopped a train!" Chrs My plans fell through in Phoenix, then again in Memphis and a dozen or more towns along the road and sometimes I'd write her letters to places she might've gone but no replies ever came my way. Chrs So I went Back to Lubbock 'cause I just couldn't take it anymore, needed closure some bad way. And I rented our old apartment and painted a mural on the wall of things we could be if we could try again today. And I made us Dolphin trainers Lord and deep sea divers and other dreams a child might wish his way And I kept thinking you might come back, Lord, when you didn't On the door out I painted you walking away Chrs......

You wake to miss the morning you never got to see thinking you were happier than you had a right to be How come it comes easy, easy, easy, for a while Had you stone blind Caught you on the Blindside Never saw it coming On your Blindside look up and it's gone On your Blindside never saw it coming now it's gone Oh you come to curse the rivers for the changing that they do saying damn the Mississippi, damn the Colorado Too They just take it all away, carving a new route Around you. That's what they do. Chrs: Catch you on the Blindside.... gone gone gone gone gone You pick yourself back up From face down in your room Saying I will not forget this Maybe even learn a thing or two. But looking over your shoulder still leaves you wide open on the other side got you paralyzed

Third-Grade Outsider / Right there on the Cusp Navigating society / at least the Best I Could When a kid with all the Power / Circled ‘round me with his friends, and said If I ate a booger, I could / Hang around with them Well I wish I could report to you / I told ‘em go jump a fence
 But then and there I ate that booger and I’ve been / Eating boogers since My life did not turn out so Bad them guys, they kept their word And I grew up in their world / of the unkind and the absurd Knowing I’d never be the hero,/ surviving’s more my thing Does it make me less a man or knowing my damned place? Cause it’s boogers when you pay the rent/ Boogers when you vote Boogers with your coffee and that /Paper boogers wrote Boogers for the overtime / That you have to work
When you want a promotion, then you find it’s / boogers for dessert. Least I’m not like Pee Boy / Nobody had it any badder than him Yes he Pissed his pants Right in class / Age Ten But his Life did not turn out so bad / that Guy he runs a Bank
 And his Third Wife, she’s Hot as Hell and he keeps/ Gas in her Caddy tank But I heard she’s stepping out / Man, It’s more booger than you think And it’s boogers when you pay the rent/ Boogers when you vote Boogers in your coffee and that / Paper boogers wrote Boogers for the overtime / That you have to work
When You want a Promotion, then you find it’s/ boogers for dessert. You Say You Never Ate a Booger.... / Who You Talking Too? I ain’t met a Person yet / what’s Boogerproof. Cause it’s Boogers for your phone bill / The Month Nobody Called Boogers on Your Internet Just’a / Trollin’ up your wall I ain’t met a person yet what’s Boogerproof. I ain’t met a person yet what’s Boogerproof. And I ain’t met
 a person yet What’s Boogerproof?

Wyoming I have Loved you / like a baby with its first tooth It's a sweet tooth aint it baby / I have stood beside your rivers in the morning after rolling from a sweet dream / of my loving baby's arms before the alarm / Before the alarm. Oh and I have come to know you like and old friend to lean upon when I look up at your mountains, purple majesty ain't wrong and I'm gonna love you like my first broken heart there at the start of knowing love Time moves on, get born get gone like a turkey through the tall corn Time moves on, get born get gone like a turkey through the tall corn Taking that second step away, just like a clumsy toddler'd do hoping I don't fall down on unfamiliar ground ahead far from the arms I know would pick me up and push me how I'd need to go Oh and I have come to know you like and old friend to lean upon when I look up at your mountains, purple majesty ain't wrong and I'm gonna love you like my first broken heart there at the start of knowing love Time moves on, get born get gone like a turkey through the tall corn Time moves on, get born get gone like a turkey through the tall corn This is where I met ole Johnboy, and laughed with Trampas too. and me and ole Brad Watson was singing them Bulldog blues as we stared at the lights of Laramie Shining like diamonds full of vice as the Geese take flight and the rivers turn to ice as the Geese take flight and the rivers turn to ice Wyoming I have loved you....

Here comes another sea change tide... Again I wasn't ready this time Should've seen it coming too busy running these games I play Baby got blessed, baby got gone To the bottom of the world alone Can't hold her on the phone when things go wrong or leave these things I've got left to do undone Chorus: She's got me sweating in the snow, working overtime Trying not to lose my mind or get left behind Working overtime, working overtime Spend my money, blood, and mind And either end up with nothing or leave nothing behind Oh lord, Sweating in the snow, sweating in the snow She got me sweating in the snow, sweating in the snow, sweating in the snow Opposites attract that's so damned true, she had a day-planner filled out and real life goals Me, I was a monkey swinging through the trees instead of swinging this hammer at the chains on me Chorus Bridge: So Look into my yard I'm as frantic as a flea I'm the steaming pile of flesh you see as the sun goes down and the snow falls round won't you be a friend and turn my porch light on? And I'll keep sweating in the snow...

Chorus: I thought I saw you out last night with Abraham Sipping wine and sitting by a fire There was a twinkle in your eye that said them old rules don't apply like they did back when we were friends Me and Abraham, we were more like brothers. Funny now how my killer was my kin He used to tell me: "Bro, what do you need with that ho' when you can have your pick of any girl in 10?" Chorus And You... you never cared too much for Abraham. Said "He acts just like he's in the damned 3rd grade." Looks like he's grown up now. The way he's fingering your blouse and by the way you can't take your eyes off him. Chorus I never thought I'd see you in no Irish Pub. Or see the things I've seen with my own eyes. But, that's my name on that marquee which means you wanted me to see just how wrong a man can be in life. I thought I saw you out last night with Abraham...

I was a man of certain vanity combing up my curls believing just by breathing I should exist here in the world And I had an orange Camaro / and a jacket that was jean and a date with Bobby Smith's big sister Everyone knows what that means... But she was loved by a big ole fool / and how it made him mean When she had taken back those kisses / and it'd only been two weeks And I saw as he pulled around the corner the only Dodge Charger lights in town And he got right there on my bumper and he wasn't backing down And I thought I'd try to shake him Pushed Bobby's sister to her seat. She'd been riding in the middle just'a loving up on me and I said "Buckle up there Sister." But I did not make the curve It was raining and that Camaro only knew how to make those back wheels turn, son. Well, that Big ole fool...He pulled me from the car And he didn't hit me once Though I'd broken his Sweet Love's arm He took Bobby's Sister to the hospital as I watched my Camaro burn And waited for the Sheriff all alone Thinking: Unbuckle up there sister but I did not make the curve. They were crying and a'driving as I watched my Camaro burn I was a man of certain vanity combing tears all through my curls I was a big ole fool and the Sheriff drove me, the Sheriff drove me Home, Home, Big ole fool Home, Home Big ole fool Drove me home, home. big ole fool, he drove me home Still Thinking: Unbuckle up there Sister How I'm taken by her curves we know exactly where we're driving to as the fire inside me burns. I was a man of certain Vanity She was combing up my curls I was a big ole fool And the Sheriff drove me, the Sheriff drove me Home home...

Never Have I evr Been a Possum in a tree but I migh'tve played dead a time or three Lord, Never. Never Have I Ever Never have I ever been who I am where I am right now. Never Have I ever Been so Far South That Orion's Belt hung upside Down Lord Never. Never Have I ever Never Have I ever been who I am where I am right now. Chrs: Never have I danced like a broke-back mule just bucking and jiving like a Gosh darned fool Spitting out the bit Slipping out the saddle braying sideways at the slack jawed cattle Never have I ever been who I am, where I am right now. Never have I ever sung a song to the moon s neighbors shushed me out the window not a time or two Lord Never. Never have I ever Never have I ever been who I am Where I am right now. Chrs: Never have I danced like a broke-back mule just bucking and jiving like a Gosh darned fool Spitting out the bit Slipping out the saddle braying sideways at the slack jawed cattle Lord Never.

Baby bought me an orange Raincoat to keep me from getting soaked While I don't look cool, man, I'm drier than you And they'll see me when I'm crossing the road See, she don't like me getting run over If you don't like me you've got her to blame So, just bag up that bottle of wine young man I'm walking up to see her again Chrs: She's got me in fine condition, fine condition, She's got me in fine condition Keeps me in fine condition, fine condition She's got me in fine condition. She'd got me in fine condition. Someone told me years ago, "The Secret to staying alive is just find someone who'll look out for you better than you've ever tried." See, if this was snake country You could bet that she'd buy me boots. Because I never look where I'm going. And I'm dumb too. Still.... Chrs. Bridge: She bought me some nicotine gum, and got me off that old fast food. What's a stone cold pimp to do? So if you don't like me you've only got her to blame For Keeping me around this place. In such Fine Condition Into Chrs.

Chorus: Well, the End of the Beginning is the Beginning of the End, my friends. When you think about your life it's a set of goodbyes and then.... You have a couple good conversations with a stranger to think over And you've always had a secret love for four leaf clovers and the end of the beginning's the beginning of the end my friends. You know plateaus come short or long and it's not really that "something's wrong" see life graph's funny when your time is never constant Can Happiness and Comfort always be the same thing? or outside your yard is the world just greener? you can never catch no end chasing rainbows Chrs--For.... Now the toilet seat's up and their libido's down talking bout another job they "Might've found." Said, "Things was looking up," while you were looking down at the carpet Maybe Y'all should try a weekend getaway but you got a couple bills you haven't paid and you are wondering: Who ate the last of the Ice Cream? Chrs-- Oh, right foot left foot get 'em down You can march through life, or dance around and there's a hot band blowing through your old hometown tonight. Or take your baby dancing in the kitchen after dishes, Barefoot soles is what's best for dancing as you laugh, and look 'em in the eye first time in a long time Chrs--
