The Highway
02:01
|
|||
This highway has a million paths each one could set me free
With just the clothes that are on my back I can hit the road and see
That my troubles are behind me
and now my thumb will guide me
and the open highway is my home
Now I will be sleepin'
underneath the stars and thinkin'
where's the next place I'm gonna go
Well, I've been across this country's map more than a few good times.
When I leave I won't come back I've done made up my mind
That my troubles are behind me
and now my thumb will guide me
and the open highway is my home
Now I will be sleepin'
underneath the stars and thinkin'
where's the next place I'm gonna go

Ode To The Homebum
01:34
|
|||
It's cold outside
and Igot no place to go
I'll sit here all day
'cuz I aint got no home
I just do my best
to kill all my time
and I'll roll myself a cigarette and walk on down that line
with a half fifth of Old Crow and the blues upon my back
I ain't got nobody to keep my life on track
If the morning frost don't kill me and I make it through the night
I'll thank the lord for giving me another day of life
It's hard out here
when you're living on the fray
but I like to sing
and get piss drunk all day
I don't want your ass
to buy me no damn food
'cuz I know where all the handouts are and where the gettin's good
with a half fifth of Old Crow and the blues upon my back
I ain't got nobody to keep my life on track
If the morning frost don't kill me and I make it through the night
I'll thank the lord for giving me another day of life

Fuck That Flag
02:16
|
|||
The symbol's just a sign that America has died
along with the values once sworn
I just hope I survive through their deceit and their lies and their maddening lust for this war
This flag that you wave's just a symbol of hate
Each star a sign of a growing death rate
That flag that you wave's just a symbol of fear
and as it burns the end grows more near
Fuck that flag you salute
It's just a symbol that we pollute
Fuck that flag and your sovereign repression
your red, white, and bull-shit!
So please open your eyes to their bullshit and lies
that have blatantly been shoved in your face
this country's full of shit and it's ran by hypocrites
and that banner's a fucking disgrace
That flag that you wave is just a symbol of hate
each star a sign of a growing death rate
That flag that you wave's just a gross perversity
and as it burns I'll show it no pity
Fuck that flag you salute
It's just a symbol that we pollute
Fuck that flag and your sovereign repression
your red, white, and bull-shit!

My woman throws me on my ass when she gets them urges that she has
and I don't think I can take it any more
This time I've leaving on my own I'm gonna pack my things and hit the road
I got my shit and I'm headed out that door
'Cuz I'm tired of that woman and I'm tired of her lies
I'm not the one who'll say sorry this time
I don't wanna hear your bullshit, and I don't wanna hear you whine
I'm leaving on my own this time
I yelled "fuck you" as I hit the door, about a quarter miledown it began to pour
so I went and tucked into my favorite bar
I was drunk off my ass when the rain finally stoppedI got butt naked and I punched a cop
now I'm sitting here in the back of a squad car
I'm still tired of that woman and I'm tired of her lies
I'm not the one who'll say sorry this time
I don't wanna hear your bullshit, and I don't wanna hear you whine
I'm leaving on my own this time
Now I'm sitting here behind bars with a couple of guys playing cards
and the guard comes in says "Jay, you've got a call."
It's my baby and she's so angry, says she bailed me out with the rest of our savings
Now I'm grinning and I'm walking out these halls
She tells me I'm tired of you stupid I'm tired of your lies
I'm not the one who'll say sorry this time
I don't wanna hear your bullshit, and I don't wanna hear you whine
but you're coming home with me this time

Scumbag
01:52
|
|||
Hey
I'm always surrounded by these stupid motherfuckers and I hate the world that I live in
There's so much pain and misery,so I'll say "Fuck you!" and I'll live in sin
'Cuz I don't care what you think about me 'cuz I probably think less of you
I'll sit and drink all night and day and I'll drown in a pile of my puke
Hey
I'm always complaining like a woman on the rag, yeah I'll bitch about anything
I'll stab you in the back for fifty cents and I probably haven't bathed in a week
'Cuz I don't care what you think about me 'cuz I probably think less of you
I'll sit and drink all night and day and I'll drown in a pile of my puke
Hey
So if you wanna hang with a dirty scumbag you can always count on me
but don't be suprised if I always fucking lie, and I steal your shit in your sleep
'Cuz I don't care what you think about me 'cuz I probably think less of you
I'll sit and drink all night and day and I'll drown in a pile of my puke
Hey

The Rails
01:46
|
|||
I'm headed out on them rails tonight and I'm on my way back home
I've been doing this for my whole life 'cuz baby it's all that I know
This time I know where I headed
but you don't know where I've been
I've done it once, I've done it twice, and I'll do it again and again
All my life I've been living so lonesome and free
it's caused so much heartache and god-damn misery
Now I sit here and fade away as I think about my past
and I take a shot, yeah one last drink as I feel the hellfire's grasp
and I'm headed out on them rails tonight and I'm on my way back home
I've been doing this for my whole life 'cuz baby it's all that I know
This time I know where I headed
and I sure as hell know where I've been
I'm going down in that long black train to finally pay for my sins

Meet Your End
02:30
|
|||
Fear has taken me
Moving my bones towards the bitter end
It is tearing and consuming me
now I feel its icy hand
Now I feel death's icy hand
You're going to meet your end
Would you like to die tonight 'cuz I can show you what it's like
how to die at the hands
of a sinister man, yeah, just like me
Would you like to die tonight?
You're going to meet your end

Son of Evil
02:00
|
|||
Laying on the floor in a pool of blood and cum
My demons lay beside me as I kiss them one by one
On that night I met aforce that nothing would compare
I was born the son of evil when I fucked the devil there
My daddy was a powerful soul back in '56
My mother was a virgin when she first felt his prick
and on August 29th thebaby Jesus Christ was born
an alien to this world he was set out to destroy
I'm the son of evil the god of fire and hell
I'm the son of evil the one you'll never know
As I look into your eyes you wanna cry for help
I want to paralyze you 'cuzI only love myself
When I was reborn from the day I fucked the devil
Nothing will come close to me because I am immortal
Many times I've lived and many times I've died
but my soul cannot be stopped as it's on an endless ride
So look into my eyes and you'll see that icy stare
I want to bring you to your knees destroy your life right there
So put your hand in mine and I'll take you for a ride
You'll see your life be stripped away 'cuz today you're gonna die

Whiskey
01:31
|
|||
There's whiskey on my breath and whiskey on my mind
Whiskey in my thoughts, yeah it's whiskey all the time
I've been out here drinking since a quarter past four and I'm gonna keep on drinking 'till I can't feel no more.
