You can't depend on anything really
There's no promises there's no point There's no good there's no bad In this dirty little joint No dope smoking no beer sold after 12 o'clock Rosedale Mississippi Magic City Juke Joint Mr Johnson sings over in a corner by the bar Sold his soul to the devil so he can play guitar Too cool to be forgotten Hey hey too cool to be for gotten Man running thru the grass outside Says he wants to take up serpents Says he will drink the deadly thing And it will not hurt him House rule no exceptions No bad language no gambling no fighting Sorry no credit don't ask Bathroom wall reads is God the answer YES Too cool to be forgotten Hey hey too cool to be forgotten June bug vs hurricane June bug vs hurricane Hey hey SOLO I had a lover I thought he was mine Thought I'd always be his valentine Leaning agianst the railing of a Lake Charles bridge Overlooking the river leaning over the edge He asked me baby would you jump into the water with me I told him no way baby that's your own death you see Too cool to be forgotten Hey hey too cool to be forgotten June bug vs hurricane June bug vs hurricane Hey hey |

Last time I saw you, you had dirt under your nails
Your eyes were glassy and you looked so pale You said my life has become a livin' hell Ain't got enough money to pay my bills Everything is wrong Everything is wrong Got a friend with a needle stuck in his arm He got hooked on heroin in Vietnam It used to help kill the pain some of the time Now I can't sleep at all since I got back home I worked in the strip mines off and on Now I can't seem to get rid of this cough Ain't been many jobs these last few months And the last one I had I got laid off I ain't got no hot water and they shut off the heat Can you loan me some money for something to eat Been out here on this corner for about a week Tryin hard to stand on my own two feet They want to try and tell me where I can live They kicked me off my land and told me they'd give me A nice little tract house with running water But how am I gonna explain that to my Navaho mother My American dream almost came true But the things they promised me never came through I believe in the American dream But things are never quite what they seem Everything is wrong Everything is wrong Everything is wrong Everything is wrong |

Lyrics for Song: Are You Alright? Lyrics for Album: West Are you alright? All the sudden you went away. Are you alright? I hope you come back around someday. Are you alright? I haven't seen you in a real long time. Are you alright? Could you give me some kind of sign. Are you alright? I looked around me and you were gone. Are you alright? I feel like there must be something wrong. Are you alright? 'Cause it seems like you disappeared. Are you alright? 'Cause I been feeling a little scared. Are you alright? Chorus: Are you sleeping through the night? Do you have someone to hold you tight? Do you have someone to hang out with? Do you have someone to hug and kiss you, Hug and kiss you,Hug and kiss you? Are you alright? Are you alright? Is there something been bothering you? Are you alright? I wish you'd give me a little clue. Are you alright? Is there something you wanna say? Are you alright? Just tell me that you're okay. Are you alright? 'Cause you took off without a word. Are you alright? You flew away like a little bird. Are you alright? Is there anything I can do? Are you alright? 'Cause I need to hear from you. Are you alright? Chorus Are you alright? Are you alright? Hey... |

I had to go back to that house one more time
To see if Camellias were in bloom For so many reasons it's been on my mind The house on Belmont Avenue Built up on cinderblocks off of the ground What with the rain and the soft swampy land By the sweet honeysuckle that grew all around Were switches when we were bad I took a bus to Baton Rouge....etc., All the front rooms were kept closed off I never liked to go in there much Sometimes the doors they'd be locked 'Cause there were precious things I couldn't touch The company couch covered in plastic Little books about being saved The dining room table nobody ate at And the piano nobody played There was this beautiful lamp I always loved A seashore was painted on the shade It would turn around when you switched on the bulb And gently rock the waves The driveway was covered with tiny white seashells A fig tree stood in the backyard there are other things I remember, as well But to tell them would be just too hard Ghosts in the wind that blow through my life Follow me wherever I go I'll never be free from these chains inside Hidden deep down in my soul |

You talk about the junk you did,
Like you talk about climbing trees. You look like a little kid, With bruises on your knees. You will never cop, To the damage that's been done. You will never stop, Cos it's too much fun. Now you want somebody to be your buttercup, Good luck finding your buttercup. You already suck me dry, Can't do it any more honey. You rough me up and make me cry, And you wanna borrow money. You say you feel like a failure, And wish you cold take it all back. Well honey I gotta tell you, It's a little too late for that. Now you want somebody to be your buttercup, Good luck finding your buttercup. Glory is an act of the other You're always feeling bad Maybe you couldn't talk to your mother, Or stand up to your dad. You want my forgiveness, That I'll give to you. But you got yourself in this mess, There's nothing I can do. Now you want somebody to be your buttercup, Good luck finding your buttercup. First time I saw you, You would make me melt. The last time I saw you, You hit below the belt. You might have a beautiful mouth, You might have beautiful eyes. But soon or later, it'll all go south, You tell too many lies. Now you want somebody to be your buttercup, Good luck finding your buttercup. Good luck finding your buttercup. Good luck finding your buttercup. |

I changed the lock on my front door so you can't see me anymore
And you can't come inside my house, and you can't lie down on my couch I changed the lock on my front door I changed the number on my phone so you can't call me up at home And you can't say those things to me that make me fall down on my knees I changed the number on my phone I changed the kind of car I drive so you can't see me when I go by And you can't chase me up the street, and you can't knock me off of my feet I changed the kind of car I drive I changed the kind of clothes I wear so you can't see me anywhere And you can't spot me in a crowd, and you can't call my name out loud I changed the kind of clothes I wear I changed the tracks underneath the train so you can't find me again And you can't trace my path, and you can't hear my laugh I changed the tracks underneath the train I changed the name of this town so you can't follow me down And you can't touch me like before, and you can't make me want you more I changed the name of this town I changed the lock on my front door, I changed the number on my phone I changed the kind of car I drive, I changed the kind of clothes I wear I changed the tracks underneath the train, I changed the name of this town I changed the name of this town I changed the name of this town |

When I look into your clear blue eyes,
I could cry, I could cry. When I think of what they?ve put you through, You know it tears me up inside. Left alone in your darkest night, By the one you trustiest most. How come they expect you to, Be such a gratuitous host When you look upon that heart of shame Now I have to face, All these accusations and questions that are ? your disgrace Now you are left in the darkest night By the ones you trust the most But now just follow blind ambition Like a promise of unknown costs When I look into your clear blue eyes I could cry, I could cry When I think of what they put you through You know it tears me up inside You know it tears me up inside You know it tears me up inside |

Dude I'm so over you
You don't even have a clue All you did was make me blue You didn't even make me, come on! You're so self-involved You're in some kind of fog You're hung up on your hog You didn't even make me, come on! You think you're in hot demand But you don't know where to put your hand Let me tell you where you stand You didn't even make me, come on! Dude you're so fire Shut up, I'm not inspired All I'm feeling now is tired You didn't even make me, come on! You weren't even worth it I'm sorry I ever flirted The effort wasn't even concerted You didn't even make me, come on! All you do is talk the talk You can't back it up with your walk You can't light my fire, so fuck off You didn't even make me, come on! |

This wall divides us, we're on two different sides
But this wall is not real; how can it be real? It's only made of concrete and barbed wire Concrete and barbed wire, concrete and barbed wire It's only made of concrete and barbed wire Back in Algiers, my darling broke my heart But he can't seem to break down this wall With two strong hands he couldn't move it at all And it's only made of concrete and barbed wire Concrete and barbed wire, concrete and barbed wire It's only made of concrete and barbed wire Down in Opelousas, dogs are at the gate, And they're mean, lord, they're mean There's a wall between us, but it's not what it seems It's only made of concrete and barbed wire Concrete and barbed wire, concrete and barbed wire It's only made of concrete and barbed wire Somewhere in Louisiana my sugar's doing time But he can't spend time with me If he could get over this wall he'd see That it's only made of concrete and barbed wire Concrete and barbed wire, concrete and barbed wire It's only made of concrete and barbed wire Concrete and barbed wire, concrete and barbed wire It's only made of concrete and barbed wire |

Some think a fancy funeral will be worth every cent
But every dime or nickel is money better spent Better spent on groceries or covering the bills Instead of little luxuries and unnecessary frills Lovely yellow daffodils and lacy pillow fringe Pretty little angels for everyone to see Lily of the valley and long black limousines It's three or four months' salaries just to pay for all those things So don't but a fancy funeral, it's not worth it in the end Goodbyes can still be beautiful without the money that you spend There's no amount of riches that will bring back what you've lost To satisfy your wishes, no way to justify the cost |

1.What a beautiful thought I am thinking
Con-cerning a great speckled bird Remember her name is re-corded On the pages of God's Holy Word. 2. All the other birds are flocking 'round her And she is despised by the squad But the great speckled bird in the Bible Is one with the great church of God. 3. All the other churches are against her They envy her glory and fame They hate her because she is chosen And has not denied Jesus' name. 4. Desiring to lower her standard They watch every move that she makes They long to find fault with her teachings But really they find no mistake. 5. She is spreading her wings for a journey She's going to leave by and by When the trumpet shall sound in the morning She'll rise and go up in the sky. 6. In the presence of all her despisers With a song never uttered before She will rise and be gone in a moment Till the great tribulation is o'er. 7. I am glad I have learned of her meekness I am proud that my name is on her book For I want to be one never fearing The face of my Savior to look. 8. When He cometh descending from heaven On the cloud that He writes in His Word I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him On the wings of that great speckled bird. |

written by Lucinda Williams
Lucinda Williams lead vocals and acoustic guitar Mickey White acoustic rhythm and lead guitars, harmony vocals Rex Bell electric bass and harmony vocals Andre Matthews electric rhythm, lead and slide guitars Ira Wilkes drums Mickey Moody pedal steel guitar Malcolm Smith fiddle and viola Tryin' hard to be a happy woman. But sometimes life just overcomes me, Everyday I'm workin' just to pay my dues. Lay down at night, my mind is so confused. Goin' down south with the New York City blues, Gotta hit the road before I blow a fuse, I might buy me a Cadillac or a Chevrolet. I don't care what model as long as it takes me away SOLO I've been hiding my heart in a trunk. Can you come see me when my ship has sunk You can give me lovin, that I can't refuse, And love is the one thing that's sure to cure my blues. Goin' down the road with a heavy heart, Tryin' to find lightness in the dark, Tryin' to live my life, tryin' to get satisfied. My mind is in the city but my heart is in the countryside. SOLO Tryin' hard to be a happy woman. But sometimes life just overcomes me, Everyday I'm workin' just to pay my dues. Lay down at night, my mind is so confused. Lay down at night, my mind is so confused. From Lucinda Williams "Happy Woman Blues" Folkways Records 1980 |

Howlin' at midnight, winter creepin' in
Feel like I've gone and lost my best friend My best friend, lost my best friend This car's headed down the wrong track again I ain't got nobody, I'm nobody's girl Gonna get in my Mercury and drive around the world Around the world, all around the world When I reach that mountain top I'll stand with flags unfurled She's up in New York City tryin' to make it big Wrote me a letter yesterday sayin' I ain't got no gigs Ain't got no gigs, I ain't got no gigs If you wanna send me somethin', make it a two dollar rig GUITAR SOLO She's up in New York City tryin' to be a star Told me you're wastin' your time where you are Where you are, where you are Gotta get yourself out of all those Texas bars Howlin' at midnight, winter creepin' in Feel like I've gone and lost my best friend My best friend, lost my best friend This car's headed down the wrong track again This car's headed down the wrong track again |

I Cared for you
Dared to do What I was never prepared to do I've talked you down Driven you around All but followed you underground I've defended you Commended you I've seen it through to the end with you I've supported you Encouraged you Comforted and consoled you I don't know how your livin' I don't know where you are And you may not be willing To open up the door If you should ever wonder You shouldn't have to ask Cos I hope you know brother I've always got your back I've paid for you I've borrowed for you I've planned all my tomorrows for you I've believed in you Grieved with you I've rolled my sleeves for you I've fed you I've clothed you I've loved you and stood up for you I've sided with you I cried for you I put my knees aside for you But I don't know how your livin' And I don't know where you are And you may not be willing To open up the door And If you should ever wonder Well you shouldn't have to ask Cos I hope you know brother I've always got your back I've always got your back |

I envy the wind
That whispers in your ear That howls through the winter That freezes your fingers That moves through your hair And cracks your lips And chills you to the bone I envy the wind I envy the rain That falls on your face That wets your eyelash |
