The Driffter

I have crossed this land
Been to every town
Where people's heart still paved with gold
On every door and window they're putting up a sign
No room to stay here anymore.
So i walked alone to the railway tracks
With ghost of broken hearts crying in the rain
They called my name i was sure i was the one
Guess i still miss someone
Along the road i saw a preacher with a gun
Walking hand in hand with the Devil in the sun
They say the wind will never bring the seeds of hope
Guess i still miss someone
Where the winding roads
A drifter following to where the howling wolf will guide
Where the wild wind is blowing
This is where i want to be
This is where i'm gonna be
I found my way to the cursed Vally down below
Indian wizard warned me from the judgment rain
Sodom and Gomorrah is where I'm heading to
Guess i still miss someone
Where the winding roads
A drifter following to where the howling wolf will guide
Where the wild wind is blowing
This is where i want to be
This is where i'm gonna be

I'll be back

This is the end of the cycle
The end of my journey
And i drive into the rain
This battered heart staggered to a conclusion
And the output was your name
When the day will come and I'll be back
With an escort flock of Crows
When our burning eyes will meet again
Igniting this old flame
The scar tissue fades
I was following this crazy voice inside my head
Take it to the edge, soldier of destiny and broken hearts
When the day will come and I'll be back
With an escort flock of Crows
When our burning eyes will meet again
Igniting this old flame
The scar tissue fades

Like a shadow
04:44

She's playing games with here mind 'cause she's fast
And she knows she can always escape
Bot sometime she like to slow down
Just to feel how deep is the pain
Deadly songs can make here feel strong
'cause she don't care where she is going
She's in love with her self and she smiles
'cause she knows the taste of distraction
She is like a shadow of an angel
She likes is dark
She is like a razor
And she is gonna cut you
And she don't know why
She had a boyfriend, they stole a gun
They went down south
To get and burn some more money
When she looked into his eyes
She could see the end, the start and the middle
She loved to feel him deep inside
She liked it wild
He was the perfect wave in here ocean
I think I'm going to check out
I was lucky to survive
Defeated by here distraction
She is like a shadow of an angel
She likes is dark
She is like a razor
And she is gonna cut you
And she don't know why
The killer woke up at dawn
Walked along the old highway
Trying to get some life from the pieces

Carmelita
03:23

|

I hear Mariachi static on my radio
And the tubes they glow in the dark
And I'm there with her in Ensenada
And I'm here in Echo Park
Carmelita hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Well, I'm sittin' here playing solitaire
With my pearl-handled deck
The county won't give me no more methadone
And they cut off your welfare check
Carmelita hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Well, I pawned my Smith Corona
And I went to meet my man
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
By the Pioneer chicken stand
Carmelita hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Carmelita hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town

Gone With The Flood
03:48
|
|
||
I walked along the ruins of the city of sins
Through landscapes of destruction and the silence of death
It is all gone, gone with the flood
On the edge of a pavement near a dead monster from the deep
Seat an old man
With his cracked voice he said
It is all gone, gone with the flood
Please listen to my story
I have no one to tell
I once had a wife, a boy and a girl
Now it's all gone, gone with the flood
I was a slave for a pittance
I was vicious and mean
So i became an assassin
I took a lot of lives
It is all gone, gone with the flood
Let it bleed, let it shine
Let it burn wild and bright
The old man asked me to find his daughter
He handed me a letter and took his last breath
On top of the hill above the grey morgue city
She was waiting beyond shattered windows and doors
Hearts on hold activating each other
The dames are flooded
I knocked on the door
You are home
It is all gone, gone with the flood
Let it bleed, let it shine
Let it burn wild and bright

3 10 to yuma
03:38
|
|

There is a lonely train called the 3.10 to Yuma
The pounding of the wheels is more like a mournful sigh
There's a legend and there's a rumor
When you take the 3.10 to Yuma
You can see the ghosts of outlaws go ridin' by
In the sky, way up high
The buzzards keep circlin' the train
While below the cattle are thirstin' for rain
It's also true they say on the 3.10 to Yuma
A man may meet his fate
For fate travels ev'rywhere
Though you've got no reason to go there
And there ain't a soul that you know there
When the 3.10 to Yuma whistles its sad refrain
Take that train
Take that train
way up high
The buzzards keep circlin' the train
While below the cattle are thirstin' for rain
It's also true they say on the 3.10 to Yuma

Night Fever
03:40

Listen to the ground:
there is movement all around.
There is something goin' down
and I can feel it.
On the waves of the air,
there is dancin' out there.
If it's somethin' we can share,
we can steal it.
And that sweet city woman,
she moves through the light,
controlling my mind and my soul.
When you reach out for me
yeah, and the feelin' is bright,
then I get night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
Here I am,
prayin' for this moment to last,
livin' on the music so fine,
borne on the wind,
makin' it mine.
Night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
In the heat of our love,
don't need no help for us to make it.
Gimme just enough to take us to the mornin'.
I got fire in my mind.
I got higher in my walkin'.
And I'm glowin' in the dark;
I give you warnin'.
And that sweet city woman,
she moves through the light,
controlling my mind and my soul.
When you reach out for me
yeah, and the feelin' is bright,
then I get night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
Here I am,
prayin' for this moment to last,
livin' on the music so fine,
borne on the wind,
makin' it mine.
Night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
