Her Face in My Place
04:10

Took a train, a runaway, to go where I could go
To blow away the memories of smoke
Took a train, a runaway, to go where I could go
To blow away, before I choke
Then I saw her face, in my place
Yeah I saw her face, in my place
Went downtown to look around, to see what I could see
To go the places other souls do go
Went downtown to look around, to see what I could see
To trace the path of what normal would be
Then I saw her face, in my place
Yeah I saw her face, in my place
It was not a nice way to see what I had to see,
It was not a nice way to see
Then I saw her face, in my place
Yeah I saw her face, in my place
It was not a nice way to see what I had to see,
It was not a nice way to see
It was a nice way
Not a nice way to see

Personal Watermelon

(Only one, only one personal item can be carried on)
I have a personal problem, can I carry it on
I have a personal friend, but he’s taking it wrong
I have a person watermelon, got it on the seat
Don’t start saying that the overhead is only meant for smaller bags and stuff that means nothing to me
(Only one, only one personal item can be carried on)
You read an advice column advising a move
You flew farther and farther, said the airplane’s smooth
Now I’m paying a visit but it’s hard to speak
Don’t start saying that the overhead is only meant for smaller bags and stuff that means nothing to me
(The overhead is only meant for smaller…)
Don’t start saying that the overhead is only meant for smaller bags and stuff that means nothing to me
Finally landing and the seat belt sign is almost off and the overheads are open and we’re standing and I hope you're out there waiting so I can hand you this fruit that traveled with me
(eerie walking)

Cowboy Woman
03:23
|

Well can you find someone to take care of my children
There’s really no one else just like me
I’d like to stick around but I’m not staying in this town
I just can’t seem to fill their every need
Grab me beer, point me to the steer
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
The land is open wide, gonna take me some hide
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
Move over Jack, I’ve been and back.
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
I’ve handled the rope, this is not a joke
I’m a cowboy woman
Well can you find someone to end this helpless feeling
There’s really no one else there for me
I’d like to rest awhile but that’s really not my style
I don’t want you to get ahead of me
Grab me beer, point me to the steer
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
The land is open wide, gonna tear me some hide
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
Move over Jack, I’ve been and back.
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
Gonna handle the rope, this is not a joke
Cuz I’m a cowboy woman
I’m a cowboy, I’m a cowboy …
Now I find myself without this love I’m needing
There’s really no one else left for me
Just to have the time, to get back what was mine
But there’s no going back, now I see
No going back, now I see
I’m a cowboy

Piece of My Heart
02:06

I’m in search of a piece of my heart,
the one you took on Sunday
I’m in search of a piece of my heart,
the part you stole in one day
It’s goin' round and round and round
and round in my head
That’s right a piece went missing,
that night I saw you kissing her
I need the part and some glue,
need it back from you
I’m in search of the piece of my heart,
to put it back together
I’m in search of the piece of my heart,
the part you’ll keep forever
It’s goin' over and over
and over again
That night I saw you kissing her
I knew you weren’t a missin' me
I need the part and some glue,
need it back from you

Muscovy Mine

In Russia we ate only bread and salt
In Russia it wasn’t our fault
In Russia all we do
In Russia hold our dreams a little longer
Only the warmth of strangers keeps you here
(Muscoy mine)
Feels like heart beat harder when they’re near
(Muscoy mine)
In Russia with every river is black
In Russia nothing, no choice
In Russia hold your breath a little longer
I hope the warmth of strangers keep you here
(Muscoy mine)
I feel my heart beat harder when you’re here
(Muscoy mine)
And did the warmth of strangers keep you here?
I feel your heart beat harder when I’m here

Billy Indian (Redux)
04:19
|

A faded anorak half hanging on a door
Sliding over tiles that mended up a floor
And under a saucer, a picture of daughter
Holding a memory of all, all that you taught her
Someone hear a creaking twig on a window pane
Someone walked the path that led down a lonely lane
Sister and brother, arm in another
Kicking a stone into a hole and calling for mother
Billy Indian they carry you away
Billy Indian yesterday
Yellow rose, yellow rose by the telephone
Billy Indian they never left you alone
Oh no
She sent you a letter, that said to forget her
Only the memories, will make you feel better
Billy Indian they carried you away
Billy Indian yesterday
Yellow rose, yellow rose by the telephone
Billy Indian they never left you alone
(traditional)
She’s a good old worker and good old pal
15 miles on the Erie Canal
I’ve got a mule, her name is Sal
15 miles on the Erie Canal
Down the river, oh down the river, oh down the river we go
Down the river, oh down the river, oh down the Ohio
