Do you read me, well won't you tell me?
If you read me, then please believe me, when I say, Yes I've been waiting, seems like forever. I've been waiting, my situation ain't got much better, Well I've been waiting, the situation don't get much better. You don't do unto others as you do unto me, Well, why am I the only one that treats you this way? Well, you got that something and it's hard to specify, I can't diagnose that look in your eyes. You don't do unto me, like I know you could, Why am I the only one who's misunderstood? Ashes to ashes, and it's dust to dust, Well, if you won't take me then I guess the devil must. I've been hurting, my hearts been burning, I've been hurting, but I've been learning, just the same. Well, I've been waiting, seems like forever, While I've been waiting, My situation ain't got much better, While I've been waiting, The situation ain't got much better, I've been waiting, The situation don't get much better. |

Well I was born on the side of a road
A gap in the hedge Did you hear what I said? Born in a house with no slates But I wouldn't switch I didn't have a stitch Always been out on a limb I've been hard to mend Like a kick in the shins You'll only see me smile When I eat up a country mile Born on the green light, a mission to move Something to prove, an itch in my shoes I heard then wail of a train From a burnin' stack and I jumped on the back Well the engineer threw the switch And it got to my brain, I've never been the same You'll only see me smile When I eat up a country mile Gotta make tracks, gotta raise the dust Grease my heels Out race the bus Don't blink your eyes Or you won't see me again Born a spoke of the wheel Not a part of the set and I'm running yet I ran before I could walk The price of the fare was hardly ever there Saw an eight wheeler move And I couldn't choose I just had to cruise You'll only see me smile When I eat up a country mile Well I was born on the side of a road A gap in the hedge Did you hear what I said Born in a house with no slates But I wouldn't switch I didn't have a stitch Always been out on a limb I've been hard to mend Like a kick in the shins You'll only see me smile When I eat up a country mile Gotta make tracks, gotta raise the dust Grease my heels Out race the bus Don't blink your eyes Or you won't see me again |

Well, the rain ain't fussy about where it lands,
It'll find you hiding no matter where you stand. It's gonna rain brother, and it's gonna rain hard, When the blues comes calling with it's calling card. It ain't too funny when you'd rather die, Ain't no pleasure when that girl don't reply. To your love sick letter that you wrote in tears, About feeling so bad for a million years. Watch out brother, be alert, But whatever you do, don't show that hurt, Don't show that hurt, show that hurt. I've been subjected, I've been so distressed, Come back baby, to clean up this mess, Clean up this mess. It ain't so funny when you'd rather die, Ain't no pleasure when that girl don't reply. To your lovesick letter that you wrote in tears, About feeling so bad for a million years. Yeah, the rain ain't fussy about where it falls, It rains on one like it rains on all. But when it falls brother, it's gonna rain hard, When the blues comes calling with it's calling card. Watch out brother, be alert, Whatever you do, don't show that hurt, Don't show that hurt. |

I'll admit you're gone - when I think I'm able,
Just like in that song, you turned all the tables, Now I know I'm wrong, life is hard to shoulder, I won't last too long, each day is getting colder. Falling constantly, shadows haunting me, Moving silently, day by day, Watching hopefully, waiting anxiously, That you might hear me, someday. That's what I pray, That's all I pray, I'm gonna be ok, it's gonna be okay. Looking ahead, there's nothing but blue days, But somehow I keep hanging on. I should spend time looking for new ways, 'Cos blue days have taken quite a toll. The journey we were on - can't believe it's over, I can feel the storm, but I can't run for cover. Where do I belong I just keep on searchin'? I want to see the dawn of the day when stop hurting. Falling constantly, shadows haunting me, Moving silently, day by day. Watching hopefully, anxiously, That you might hear me, someday. That's what I pray, That's all I pray, It's gonna be ok, I'm gonna be okay. |

My baby`s got a secret agent,
To watch me like a hawk, Well, my baby`s got a secret agent, To watch me like a hawk. He knows each time I leave my house, He knows each time I move around. Ow.... Secret agent, won`t you please take my advice? Secret agent, secret agent, Won`t you please heed my advice? You crossed me once, don`t cross me twice, I`m gonna cut you down to size. I`ll make that man, Turn in his badge in the morning, I slip around, But I`m too quick to catch in the morning, I`ll make that man turn in his badge, I`ll slip around him, I`m too quick to catch, No jealous woman is gonna keep tabs on me. Well, she`s got that secret agent, And he`s breathing down my spine, Yea, she`s got that secret agent, And he`s breathing down my spine, He must like working overtime, I think I`m always hard to find. Oh, secret agent, secret agent, Gonna have a showdown before long, Won`t you listen, secret agent, We`re gonna have a showdown before long. I know you pack a forty-four, I hope you know just what it`s for, I know you pack a forty-four, I hope you know just what it`s for, Just keep your shadow from my door. Oww.......... |

I've cried enough tears to fill up an ocean,
Surely you see that my world's been broken? Here I am, where are you? Help me please, pull me through. Here I am, where are you? All my days are edged in blue. You made up your mind and nothing can change it, You want to be free but I can't rearrange it. Here I am, where are you? Tell me please, what to do, Here I am, broken into, All my days are edged in blue. I'd go anywhere, if I thought you'd be there, 'Cos I've made up my mind that's where I belong. I've traveled the world 'cos I couldn't be told, Told by my heart that you really had gone. I'd go anywhere, if I thought you'd be there, 'Cos I've made up my mind that's where I belong. I've traveled the world 'cos I couldn't be told, Told by my heart that you really had gone. Yeah.... Our lines got crossed through all things unspoken. A tangle of knots not easily opened, Here I am, where are you? Help me please, pull me through. Here I am, where are you? All my days are edged in blue. Here I am, where are you? Help me please, pull me through, Here I am, where are you? Can't you see I'm edged in blue. Ohhh....... Ohhh....... |

You seemed to be like a real good idea,
At the time, at the time. You lifted me up to some higher ground, Then you knocked me down on the ground. But I rue that day like I don't know how. You picked me up right out of the tide, My eyes weren't open wide. I was blind, But I see much better, much better now. Well, I roll with the punches, I sway with the curves, I walked on a tightrope, didn't lose my nerve. Stayed on the canvas, couldn't count me out, Never threw in the towel, yeah, I saw the fight out and how. All fifty rounds. Well, I roll with the punches, I sway with the curves, I walked on a tightrope, didn't lose my nerve. Stayed on the canvas, couldn't count me out. Never threw in the towel, yeah, I saw the fight out and how. You lifted me up to some higher ground, Then you knocked me down on the ground. You lifted me up right out of the tide, My eyes weren't open wide. I was blind, But I see much better, much better now. You seemed to be like a real good idea, At the time, don't know why. But I rue that day like I don't know how, I rue that day as of now. I rue that day like I don't know how. |
