In the mornin' you go gunnin' for the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in but they catch you at the border And the mourners are all singin' as they drag you by your feet But the hangman isn't hangin' so they put you on the street *You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels turinin' 'round and 'round You go back, Jack, do it again When you know she's no high climber then you find your only friend In a room with your two timer, but you're sure you're near the end Then you love a little wild one, and she brings you only sorrow All the time you know she's smilin', you'll be on your knees tomorrow *Repeat Guitar Solo Keyboard Solo Now you swear and kick and beg us that yopu're not a gamblin' man Then you find you're back in Vegas with a handle in your hand Your black cards can bring you money so you hide them when you're able In the land of milk and honey you must put them on the table *Repeat |

Times are hard, you're afraid to pay the fee
So you find yourself somebody who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' 'cause your man is out of town That's the time you get me runnin' and you know I'll be around *I'm a fool to do your dirty work oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work no more I'm a fool to do your dirty work oh yeah Light the candle, put the lock upon the door You have sent the maid home early like a thousand times before Like the castle in his corner in a medieval game I foresee terrible trouble but I stay here just the same *Repeat Solo |

Now they lay his body down, Sad old men who run this town
I still recall the way he led the charge and saved the day Blue blood and rain, I can hear the bugle playin' *We've seen the last of good King Richard Ring out the past, his name lives on and on Roll out the bones and raise up the pitchers Raise up your glass to good King John Uh huh While they plundered far and wide, all his starving children cried And though we sung his fame we all went hungry just the same He meant to shine to the end of line *Repeat Raise up your glass to good King John Raise up your glass to good King John |

Felonius my old friend step on in and let me shake your hand
So glad that you're here again for one more time let your madness run with mine Streets still unseen we'll find somehow no time is better than now *Tell me where are drivin' midnight cruiser Where is your bounty of fortune and fame I am another gentle man loser Drive to Harlem or somewhere the same The world that we used to know people tell me it don't turn no more The places we used to go familiar faces that aint smilin' like before The time of our time has come and gone I fear we been waitin' too long *Repeat Solo *Repeat |

A world become one of salads and sun, only a fool would say that
A boy with a plan, a natural man wearin' a white Stetson hat Unhand that gun begone there's no one to fire upon If he's holding it high he's telling a lie I heard it was you talkin' bout a world where all is free It just couldn't be, and only a fool would say that The man in the street draggin' his feet, don't wanna hear the bad news Imagine your face there in his place standing inside his brown shoes You do his nine to five drag yourself home half alive And there on the screen a man with a dream Chorus |

Your everlasting summer, and you can see it fadin' fast
So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last But you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand The things you think are precious I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seveteen In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine I've spent a lot of money and I've spent a lot of time The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind After all the things we've done and seen you find another man The things you think are useless I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine |

I decline to walk the line they tell me that I'm lazy
Worldly wise I realise that everybody's crazy A womans voice reminds me to serve and not to speak Am I myself or just another freak You know there's fire in the hole and nothing left to burn I'd love to run out now there's nowhere left to turn With a cough I shake it off and work around my yellow stripe Should I hide or eat my pride or wait until it's good and ripe? My life is boiling over It's happened once before I wish someone would open up the door Don't you know there's fire in the hole and nothing left to burn I'd love to run out now there's nowhere left to turn Solo Chorus |

A race of angels
Bound with one another A dish of dollars Laid out for all to see A tower room at Eden Rock His golf at noon for freelyn owes the charmer Under meHis lady's aching To bring a body down She daily preaches On where she wants to be An evening with a movie queen A face we all have seenlyn owes the charmer Under meA case of aces Done up loose for dealing A piece of island cooling in the sea The whole of time we gain or lose And power enough to chooselyn owes the charmer Under me |

If you listen you can hear it it's the laughter in the street
It's the motion in the music, and the fire beneath your feet All the signs are right this time, you don't have to try so very hard If you live in this world, you're feelin' the change of the guard Na na na na, na na na na Na na na na, na na na na All you cowboys and your neighbours, can you swallow up your pride ? Take your guns off if you're willin', and you know we're on your side If you wanna get through the years, It's high time you played your card If you live in this world, you're feelin' the change of the guard Na na na na, na na na na Na na na na, na na na na Repeat [Na na na na, na na na na] to fade |

With stocking face I bought a gun, the plan was set, the plan was done
Looked at my watch and started for the door, Now the food here aint so good no more and they closed the package store Love your mama, love your brother, love 'em till they run for cover Turn the light off, keep your shirt on cry a jag on me Oh Michael, oh, Jesus, you know I'm not to blame You know my reputation for playing a ggod clean game Oh Michael, oh, Jesus, I'll keep my promise when You turn that heartbeat over again My poisons named, you know my brand, so please make mine a double, Sam Stir it up nice, I'll eat it right here Yeah, this highway runs from Paraguay and I've just come all the way Chorus We warned the corpse of William Wright not to cuss and drink all night Ticket in hand, we saw him laid to rest Oh, but zombie see and zombie do, he's here with me and you Chorus |
