Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
So I dont even make a sound
Cause its gunna sting me when I leave this town
All the people in the street
That i'll never get to meet
If these dont bend somehow
And I got no time
That I got to get to
Where I dont need to be
"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more
In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me whats in store,
My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
And I cant take no more, no, no
Now I just wanna get close to you
An taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat...
Peace

Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
I am more afraid of living
Than I am scared to die
I am more afraid of falling
Than I am of flying hight
But every moral has a story
And every story has an end
"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
Open your eyes and look within:
Are you satisfied with the life you're living? Huh!
We know where we're going;
We know where we're from.
We're leaving Babylon, y'all!
We're going to our Father's land.
Peace

This one goes out to you and yours
worldwide
I say hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see
the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I’ve been a lot of places all around the way
I’ve seen a lot joy and I’ve seen a lot of pain
but I don’t want to write a love song for the world,
I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl
Junkies on the corner always calling my name
And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games
When I saw you getting down well I hoped it was you
And when I looked into your eyes I knew it was true
I say Hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see
the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
Now I’m not a highly metaphysical man
But I know when the stars are aligned you can
bump into person in the middle of the road
look into their eyes and you suddenly know
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
Dancing in the night in the middle of June
My momma told me don’t lose you
‘cause the best luck I had was you
I said Hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
And I said rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said Hey momma hey momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said hey papa, hey papa close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said Hey Momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you I said
hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
what you gonna do?
My momma told me don’t lose you
Cause the best luck I had was you
And I know one thing that I love you
I said I'll be gone today
but I’ll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
I said I'll be gone today
but I’ll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you
I love you (3x)
I love you (3x)
I love you (3x)
Peace

A lotta people wont get no supper tonight
A lotta people going to suffer tonight
Cause the battle, is getting hotter
In this iration
Its Armagideon
A lotta people wont get no justice tonight
So a lotta people going to have to stand up and fight
But remember, to praise Jehovah
And He will guide you
In this iration
Its Armagideon
Hey...A lotta people will be running and hiding tonight
Said a lotta one going run and hide tonight
Cause its your action
You must get your fraction
In this iration
Its Armagideon

About a thing
Cause every little thing
Is gonna be all right'
Lives in this yellow house
Yestreday she passed me by
She doesn't want to know me now
- THE WHO
Don't need a raincoat, I'm already wet
Don't need a bandage, there's too much...blood..."
song of the moment... lyrics of the moment
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Cause its gunna sting me when I leave this town
All the people in the street
That i'll never get to meet
If these dont bend somehow
And I got no time
That I got to get to
Where I dont need to be
it's christmas time in the city....
i swear to god, i was in such a bad place i put on xmas caroles to get me outta the funk.
works every time.
In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more
In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me whats in store,
My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
And I cant take no more, no, no
Now I just wanna get close to you
An taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you

Can you feel it in the rain?

Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad
Night or day
The shadow never seems
To fade away
And the Sun won't shine anymore
And the rains fall down on my door...
Than I am scared to die
I am more afraid of falling
Than I am of flying hight
But every moral has a story
And every story has an end
Are you satisfied with the life you're living? Huh!
We know where we're going;
We know where we're from.
We're leaving Babylon, y'all!
We're going to our Father's land.

She's out and fancy free
Flirting with the boys with all her charms....
go ahead and flunk my ass!
Scared and runnin
But I'm still waitin for
The second comin
You just tremble inside
Then I know how much you want me
That, you can't hide....
In your arms again
And I will not remember
That I ever felt the pain
You're a decision I never make
A lotta people wont get no supper tonight
A lotta people going to suffer tonight
Cause the battle, is getting hotter
In this iration
Its Armagideon
A lotta people wont get no justice tonight
So a lotta people going to have to stand up and fight
But remember, to praise Jehovah
And He will guide you

Funk me down
Funk me sideways
Funk me always
Bring the funk
Gotta bring the funk
And I don't know where you've gone
