I'm your girl
Step right up, boy You're the winner I know you've been going For a long, long time But I'll make you feel like a beginner The night will be our canopy We can walk down the street It don't matter to me I got left, I got right Some girls are sweet You know I'd rather fight I bet you take a hand I bet you hop a train Los Angeles went crazy San Francisco went insane Step right up, boy Count to three We can walk down the street It don't matter to me I'm your girl I see the light I'm gonna walk you through The Tenderloin tonight I bet you know a man can run I bet you wrap us up, baby I bet we come undone The moonlight shines down Through the trees We can walk down the street It don't matter to me |

He's older than the hills, boys, winking the night away, Jack
He's a punk, rat, cat guts, your tongue, my man your time is up No good, rotten, I told him get lost! For bragging 'bout the tricks that he used to tie knots Just another good reason that he used to get sauced See the city laid out flat on it's back Hear the night winds moan There'll be good luck for one of us Wishbone He's just a child, you twist his arm, he's always guilty, man He'll never fix what he did wrong He hides beneath his hat I've seen him half a dozen times before Dirty, filthy, looking for Some empty arms that he could fall into See the city laid out flat on it's back, man She's all alone There'll be good luck for one of us Wishbone I say I'll meet you in the alley where I heard the woman screaming "Somebody, please, help me" The lights may flicker engine blue I tell you that our love is true Now, this could be the real thing See the city laid out flat on it's back Hear the night winds moan There'll be good luck for one of us Wishbone |

When the river runs wild
And the big fish quarrel I know he will see me He calls me by name When the water is high That's where I will follow And I know he can see me He calls me by name Sylvia For certain Yes, I see he wrote it down Sylvia For certain Her eyes were wild and her hair was brown Will we wash away Well, I never was sorry And I know he can see me He calls me by name Sylvia For certain Yes, I see he wrote it down Sylvia For certain Her eyes were wild and her hair was brown |

Tristeza, Tristeza
When will you marry Your wild and foot stomping To your smile, arbitrary? And over the threshold His child you will carry You may walk, he will drive We will ride Montessori She's a doll, she's a steal You must catch her if you will We will dance and be merry Then Tristeza we'll bury At dawn through the den He will dance with the lions You will hear when he goes He will ride, he will Triumph Tristeza, Tristeza, ooh, ooh, ooh Tristeza, ooooh! Tristeza, Tristeza When will you marry? He is wild, he will fly You will smile so contrary He will see your reflection In the chrome BSA He will notice you scheming He will dream, he will pray Tristeza, Tristeza, ooh, ooh, ooh Tristeza, oooh, aaaaah! |

We were meant to be lovers
I know the truth Just one more kiss for me Another kiss for you We were meant to be strangers I'll never tell You may just look away But I know you so well I know my husband cares for me I know my darling does But when I bear his son He'll look like you because We were meant to be in love We were meant to be lovers We were meant to be close And when you're lying with another girl I know you love me the most We were meant to be lonely Yes, this I know It's always you and me I'll never let you go I know my husband cares for me I know my darling does But when I bear his son He'll look like you because We were meant to be in love. |

I'd rather Normandie
I'll take the hill This salt and pepper tree To set up on my window sill He's sure to call on me We'll Alameda down Our way to Chinatown Oh, wish me luck I'm gonna take the train It must be South bound He's sure to call on me I'll climb all the way up To the tops of the palms And go barrelling down 'til I'm caught in your arms I'd rather Normandie I'll take the hill See from the tallest tree That falling down is such a thrill He's sure to call on me |

He lied when he laid
With a down trodden babe He lied, oh, he lied to me He lied when he tripped When he broke, when he ran With the shirt on his back and the money in his hand He went down on his belly And he slithered 'round the floor Should've known better Always done it before And he laughed Always do it some more He lied when he kissed a poor, lonely miss He lied, oh, he lied to me He lied when he kicked When he broke with a shout Then he took me by the hand and he dragged me all about He went down on his belly And he slithered like a creep Through the alleys and the gutters Down the cold, hard streets He said I should've known better Said I, yes, I, oh, I should've known He lied from the start when he stole my heart He lied, oh, he lied to me He lied when he switched When he broke with his teeth Then he brought this fruit and he laid it at my feet He went down on his belly And he slithered up a tree He wiggled and he hissed When he kissed my cheek He said I should've known better What a feral beast |

Close your eyes
What she wore What she wondered about a boy Who would it be? He'll never know and always wonder why Sarah never said goodbye Would she ride? If you see her passing Don't forget to ask her Would she remember, Believe he's waiting for her To arrive? Sarah never said goodbye When hearts are young and tender When the night is cold and he can't defend her He swears to God that he'll never surrender Hope to see her again Close your eyes To dream of Sarah What she wondered about the stars in the sky What she wanted He'll never know and always wonder why Sarah never said goodbye |

I'm blind
I'm blinded I cannot see I want to sleep all day And wile away the hours I don't need to prove myself I am a careless driver I'll run I'm running Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow I don't need to prove myself I am a careless driver Maybe you don't notice me Shrinking 'neath your fearless tree I'm reckless, I'm reckless, I'm reckless I'll cry all night Oh, Lordy my tears never dry I'm drowning I don't need to prove myself I am a careless driver |

Hack Jimmy, he would know
Just read his long expression Here in the neighborhood He watches his reflection Somehow I never knew Just what to make of him But if he asked me to I'd let him take me for a spin Hack Jimmy, he would know Just how you pose the question Tough in his leather boots He watches his reflection Somehow I understood Just was his foolish pride But if he asked me to I'd let him take me for a ride Hack Jimmy, he would know Just kiss me pure confection Still says that he's no good He watches his reflection Somehow I never knew Just drifted out of sight But if he asked me to I'd let him take me home tonight |

With a lousy, little grand he'd pay off everyone he owed
Drive the fleet-side; take the stake-bed; cafe handlebars My brushed chrome Wrap his ring around my finger with a tire iron There's too much money in the world for my Nickel Plated Man I love him Now stop going 'round with those sleazy little pigeons Hanging from a slack wire, but sweet my little dove Looking for a good time, a bite to eat, And strutting 'round on those pigeon feet There's too much money in the world for my Nickel Plated Man I love him I hear them coming for the bottles in the late night/early morn I never even read the paper 'cause they took it from my door And I hardly took the trash out, now they're coming back for more Oh, there's too much money in the world There's too much money in the world There's too much money in the world for my Nickel Plated Man I love him, I love him, I love him. |
