Candy, Jim & Uncle Red
02:31
|
|||
Hidin’ in the high plains, waiting for the first train
Marshall’s breath on his neck
He’s the most wanted outlaw, wily like a coyote, furtive as a rattlesnake
In the radio hears his name while in the background Red Stovall whispers
Crossing Mississippi River to the Show-Me State
In a small bar in Galena, dancing country music
Candy asks for more brewed beer
A dagger in her teeth, a pistol in her boot
She’s waiting for her man
Was a great scape, was a long wait
But he just needs a Candy’s kiss, a shot of Jim and an Uncle Red’s song
And to think there was a time, a distant lost time
When their voices rode across the land
When cowgirls, truckers, lovers and bikers, lived through the broadcast
Was a great scape, was a long wait
But he just needs a Candy’s kiss, a shot of Jim and an Uncle Red’s song

This is the story of Johnny Montana
Was born in the hills of Utah, maybe in Lousiana
But nobody doubt that his life was something real -Oh, no, no-
His legend’s still alive and it will never die
Cuz’ Johnny was the best songwriter of all time
Hey Johnny, Who were you? Is it all hearsay? Is it really all true?
Pretty girls were always in his car
With a bunch of bourbon bottles and his old red guitar
He played every night and spent all day on the road -driving so fast-
Some people say he was tall and blond
But others describe him with black hair and short
Hey Johnny, How were you? Is it all hearsay? Is it really all true?
Well, anyway he’s the best to me
Although I have never seen or heard him
I can see him with his cocky smile -under the lights of the stage-
Oh Johnny, how I wish I could’ve been there!
Hey Johnny, how did you do it?
How can you be so famous if you never had a hit?
I don’t know the mystery behind you
But every night I hear your voice from the stars
Bye, bye, Johnny, my dear friend
I don’t give a shit what people think of your success
I'll keep singing for you every night
And you’ll hear me from the stars…
And you’ll hear me from the stars…
And you…

I Can't Love You Anymore
04:19
|

I love my hometown, I love my little girl
I miss my daughter, she’s livin’ far away
I love my brothers, they’re livin’ out of town
But I can´t love you anymore if you treat me like a clown
And I don’t know where to hide, oh, where to hide
When the evil woman comes, when the evil woman comes...
As you treat me, I can´t love you anymore
The way you love me baby, I’m goin’ out the door
As you treat me, honey, I can´t love you anymore
The way you love me, baby, I can´t love you anymore
I lose my fears when I come to town
I know I’m so lucky, baby, ‘cause mama still comes around
Days go by, honey, and I don’t know what to do
But I can´t love you anymore cause you make me feel so blue

Don’t call me a friend, just call me amigo
After three glasses of wine, two pints of beer
One scotch and maybe something illegal
Let me tell you 'bout my girl, all that booze is for her treason
Well, I admit that when I'm drunk I maybe change the facts a little
But what are we doing here? In this trendy pub for cool crowds?
The big waitress look us badly
We don't seem nice in this fucking shithole
Don’t call me a friend, just call me amigo
After three glasses of wine, two pints of beer
One scotch and maybe something illegal
Don’t call me a friend, just call me amigo
Come on join me, raise your glass and say cheers
Not for Dylan, just for Seger
Let's go, get out of here to a bar for common people
Where sound good old music, hard guitars and some fiddles
Can talk 'bout classic movies, bounty hunters, forajidos
Where shirts and jeans are good enough
And you don’t need fancy dress codes
Let’s go, amigo!

Sad Song for Christmas
04:19
|
|||
Alone with your picture
This room, so dark and so cold
While the rain hits the window
Cheap gin casts out the devil from within my soul
And death come to take me on the back of a winged mare
And I beg the life another chance to become a good man
And I wrote this sad song for Christmas
And I wrote this sad song for her
Because nothing compares to Christmas
To call back to past
And I wrote this sad song for Christmas
While I drank thinking ‘bout her
Empty bottle helps me to remember
That I’m just a man

Nameless Belle
04:44
|
|||
Look how it goes down the avenue, lethal like that bullet I could chew
She’s a damage I can’t repair and that’s the truth
She wiggles in a kind of dance on the tightrope over hell
In her bed there is no place for fairy tales
She appeared bright in the dark with those black eyes of white shark
Showed no feelings, do it fast
I confess that I fell in love, don´t give a damn
Do your magic, nameless belle
I sip your moonshine, pay your game
But please free me from your spell, oh, nameless belle
You have to know, nameless belle
You have to know I’m forever in debt
With your cruel open-heartedness, oh nameless belle
Farewells that never end, same mistakes, I don’t care
I hide at the down of day, sky turns grey
I wish to find her again to tell me that she’s going away
Because she’s a habit I don't want to break

Tell Hag
03:38
|
|||
Wake up when the daylight goes, missing seeing the sun
Looking for cold coffee, thinking about last night
Making efforts to remember, making efforts to try
To find the man I used to be, when I didn’t used to cry
Listen to old honky tonk songs, sitting with Lefty, George and Hank
Sharing with them my worries, asking them how to restart
Travel again to Bakersfield, in a Greyhound with Dwight and Buck
To have a drink, then go tell Hag, that also my mama tried
Going out when night is born, facing the same storm
As all the empty yesterdays I can recall before
Making efforts to remember, making efforts to try
To go back when the bottle, stayed out of my path

Rock 'N' Rolled Me
03:39
|
|||
I can’t remember all the good old days with you, darling
My mind is fucked cleaned up since you gone
I can’t forget all the bad old days with you, honey
My heart was mislead like a blind docile dog
Now I don’t care about you, yeah
At what you think about me
But I confess that I still longing like
You Rock and Rolled me
I can’t complain for all the lose sad days with you, baby
Can save your silly lies for next unhappy jerk
And my best memory of you, yeah
The best thing you did for me
Was when in that dark parking lot
You Rock and Rolled me
Floating in my sea of memories, woman
Amassed all these things that I did for you
Let them drown, let them drown, let them… let them drown
For once in the hell and for all
You Rock and Rolled me… You Rock and Rolled me…
You Rock and Rolled me… You Rock and Rolled me…

Bleak Claudine
06:41
|
|||
Under a hard rain, after a long dry fall
I met a girl, and she stopped the storm
She dressed a red coat, a blue ribbon in dark hair
Her small shoes mixed the water with the air
Without realizing it, I had lost my zest
When spring came, we were just like the rest
Sweet bleak Claudine, we dreamed the paradise
But dreams are just dreams
Dear bleak Claudine, we climbed mountains
When my pieces sailed upstream
Sadly, Claudine, that warm winter was just as cold as any other one
Oh, wet summertime, witness rough and chill
This morning I saw you walking through the same park
Those kids keep your gaze and take me back to those
Years of youth when the clock hardly moved, no
I vowed to stop the time from touching you
To my eyes, at least that part came true
And I felt you so close as I walked away like I did so many years ago
I didn’t want you to see what time had done with us
And with all those years that will never come back
Sweet bleak Claudine, we dreamed the paradise
But dreams are just dreams
Dear bleak Claudine, we climbed mountains
When my pieces sailed upstream
Sweet bleak Claudine...
Dear bleak Claudine...
Sweet bleak Claudine...

Last Night
02:22
|

There’s no way I can tell you about last night
There’s no way I can tell you about last night
There’s no way I can tell you about last night
Oh, such a good night!
Wake up in the morning somewhere in town
Feelin’ like a knock-out fighter at the last round
I have flashes comin’ and goin’ in my brain
I need some pills and coffee or I’m go insane
There’s no way I can tell you about last night
There’s no way I can tell you about last night
There’s no way I can tell you about last night
Oh, such a good night! No way!
No way!
