Gates Of Heaven
Automatic copiers crank social warriors
They kill they maim they figure it’s reason enough to live
Reason enough to die
I see them on the merry go round in an endless vicious circle
Pointy shoes country club dues
It doesn’t add up it doesn’t really matter
Under a big old canapy little sister is leading the band
They’re playing for free in Market Square
C’mon lets’ give a hand
Papa’s got a jug with him and he’s looking for a fight
You know he’s gonna find it on the Midway tonight
Everytime he talks to her it turns into a war of words
Neither side could ever hope to win
It’s true she could forgive him it’s true he’d let her try
It reminded me of you and I and our own little gilt paradise
It’s a matter of fact we took each to task and it ain’t nobody’s turn to cry
I’m pulling pins I’m moving nuts and bolts
But the show is over there ain’t no more
C’mon let’s go home folks
Rita won’t you wait up for me this ain’t gonna take all night
We only got one more chance to set things right tonight
Reflection on a friend of mine I can see him in the mirrors
Walking through department stores seeing myself in another time
Seeing myself right now
I’m walking on a median lane feeding a white line fever
Stuck standing on my head gotta get soon I gotta out right now
Jamming on a Big Beat some use to call it Rock’n’Roll
You can stomp your feet shake you ass
C’mon you ain’t never too old
Big Mama says you might kill yourself and know she’s sure she’s right
But tell Big Mama I just wanna see the bright lights tonight

Tonight I'm Alright

Tonight I’m alright
I never had much money
Could not afford to buy no friends
I paid with my loyalty my honour to defend
A strong constitution more than gets me by
Some people pay for disappointment
Don’t even ask me why
You don’t have to say that you love me
It’s better if you say nothing at all
You can stay or you can leave
Tonight I’m alright
I use to stare out at the wilderness
And tell myself lies
Of pretty girls and gallant young hearts
The wherefore and the whys
But now I got my feet on the ground
I broke all the ties that bind
Ain’t gonna court disaster no more
Good loving is too hard to find
I think I’m gonna live my life
The way I drive my car gonna go as fast as I can
And every bit as far
So don’t you worry about me none
It shouldn’t come as no surprise
You know I’ve got a wreckless heart
Can’t you see it in my eyes

Carney’s Lament
I remember when we first met
You standing there your hair all wet
You thought that bus was never going to come
I was the ride you didn’t want to bum
Think of me I’ll remember you
Alone at night wondering what to do
Speak of me be careful what you say
The carnival is leaving and I’ll be on my way
When you left home you thought it be forever
I kept telling never to say never
Now you’re gone and the midway is down
Trucks are leaving for the next town
Think of me I’ll remember you
Alone at night wondering what to do
Speak of me be careful what you say
The carnival is leaving and I’ll be on my way
I’ve been asking around about you
Everybody tells me haven’t got a clue
Ask myself am I wasting my time
Carrying a torch ain’t no crime
Think of me I’ll remember you
Alone at night wondering what to do
Speak of me be careful what you say
The carnival is leaving and I’ll be on my way
