EVENING COCONUT
The Statue of Liberty is breathing in the air
Atlantis is waiting down below.
Late at night, flashing lights are sighted in the air.
It's no secret, what everybody knows.
It really don't matter much, which way I go.
But remember to pull over in the storm.
Have you seen the evening coconut
Bobbing on the bay?
Standing on the water's edge of stone
Someone there besides you
To hear the words you say
To show you things your eyes have never known.
Evening coconut, evening coconut
Evening coconut, evening coconut
Evening coconut, evening coconut
Evening coconut, evening coconut
Evening coconut, evening coconut
The Statue of Liberty is breathing in the air
While Atlantis is waiting down below.
Late at night, flashing lights are sighted in the air.
It's no secret, what everybody knows.
Evening coconut, evening coconut

EVERYBODY’S ALONE
If you're looking for me
You'll find me resting in the shade
Of the mountains and trees
Beneath the cool summer breeze
And I don't mind if you stay
Everybody's alone
Everybody's alone
People talking to me
Someone saying that I'm not the same
That's not so easy to be
But when I'll learn to be free
I wonder if I'll miss the pain
Everybody's alone
Everybody's alone
All I want you to know
Is that I love you so much
I can hardly stand it
When everybody's alone
Everybody's alone
Everybody's alone
Everybody's alone
EXTRA, EXTRA
Selling papers on the corner,
I saw a man yesterday.
I asked him if he'd wanna
Tell me what made him this way.
He said, when it's born, it's warm,
Then it gathers strength in lies,
When it falls, it falls all over you.
FIND ANOTHER SHOULDER
I told you babe once before
Don't want you hangin' around my door
You better find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
'Cause honey, I don't love you anymore.
I told you babe, you're no good,
Don't want you messin' up my neighborhood.
You better find another shoulder
Find another shoulder, babe
Find another shoulder
'Cause honey, I don't love you anymore.
Ah, here's your ticket for the coast, start light,
Leave here baby, stay out of sight.
You better find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
'Cause honey, I don't love you anymore.
Find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
You better find another shoulder
'Cause honey, I don't love you anymore.
I told you baby, once before
Don't want you messin' outside my door
You better find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
Find another shoulder
'Cause honey, I don't love you anymore

FLYING ON THE GROUND IS WRONG
Is my world not falling down
I'm in pieces on the ground
And my eyes aren't open
And I'm standing on my knees
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down,
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you.
Turn me up or turn me down
Turn me up or turn me down
Turn me off or turn me round
I wish I could have met you in a place
Where we both belong
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down,
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you.
Sometimes I feel like I'm just a helpless child
Sometimes I feel like I'm just a helpless child
Sometimes I feel like a kid.
But baby, since I have changed
I can't take nothing home.
City lights at a country fair
City lights at a country fair
Never shine but always glare
If I'm bright enough to see you,
You're just to dark to care.
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down,
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you
FONTAINEBLEAU
Who put the palm over my blonde?
Who put all the tar on the morning sand?
Who took everything from where it once was
And put it where it was last seen?
Fontainebleau, they painted it green
Fontainebleau, for the well-to-do
At the Fontainebleau.
There's a palace in the gravy
That's holding on and on and on
Even after all the blue-haired ladies
And the wheelchairs are gone.
I guess the reason I'm so scared of it
Is I stayed there once and I almost fit
I left before I got out of it
People were drownin' in their own
Fontainebleau
Fontainebleau, was that me?
Fontainebleau, well I guess I'll see
Fontainebleau.
Fontainebleau, where the surfer works
Fontainebleau, 'til the break of day
Fontainebleau, 'cause it takes a shark
Fontainebleau, to catch a wave at the Fontainebleau
FOOL FOR YOUR LOVE
All through the lonesome night I tossed and I turned
Lost in these dreams of you since the day I learned
How could you give yourself to another man
A fool for your love, fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
Look how your eyes have changed, all the love has gone
Where did I lose you babe, what did I do wrong
How could you give yourself to another man
I'm a fool for your love, fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
Now you won't say goodbye,
But you don't want to stay
I never thought that I
Would lose you this way.
A fool for your love.
All through the lonesome night I tossed and I turned
Lost in these dreams of you since the day I learned
How could you give yourself to another man
A fool for your love, fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
A fool for your love, I hold on your love.
I'm just a fool in love with you.
I'm a fool, fool for your love
I'm just a fool for your love
I'm a fool for you.
GET GONE
When I was a young boy, it weren't too late
I had me a Buick, was a '48
Yeah, tons and tons of rollin' steel
With a long black hoad and four big wheels.
Well, I worked so hard I flunked out of school
And everybody said I was a teenage fool
Meanwhile I wrote me a new set of rules
'Bout how to get gone and how to be cool.
Well, we hit the road like a ton o' bricks
With an old guitar and a few hot licks
We were rockin' in the city and rockin' in the sticks
Didn't make much money but we had a lotta kicks.
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone.
Well, then one day a city slicker walked up
Said, Son, I'm gonna make you a million bucks
Gonna fly around the country in a big ol' plane
Gonna get a lotta drugs, gonna feel no pain.
Well, I knew we were breakin' that highway rule
When we pulled outta town a little low on fuel
That big ol' plane fell from the sky
Me and the boys kissed the world goodbye
Yeah, me and the boys kissed the world goodbye.
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone.
GIVE ME STRENGTH

GIVE ME STRENGTH
Lonely man I've made myself to be
Is not as bad as some things I have seen.
The picture painted here is not a dream
The only reality is the way it seems.
The happier you fly
The happier you fly
The sadder you fall
The laughter in your eyes
Is never all.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to leave my sweetheart.
I'm riding down swept roads in my old car
I'm riding down swept roads in my old car
The moon is almost full except for star-shine.
The party ended long before the night
She made me feel alive and that's all right.
The happier you fly
The happier you fly
The sadder you fall
The laughter in your eyes
Is never all.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to leave while she's gone.
The happier you fly
The happier you fly
The sadder you fall
The laughter in your eyes
Is never all.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to move along.
Give me strength to move along
GOODBYE DICK
Goodbye Dick, goodbye Dick.
But I saw you walkin the White House lawn.
Goodbye Dick, goodbye Dick.
Goodbye Rosemary, goodbye Rosemary.
I saw you take your typewriter out of the White House door
No one wants you to type here anymore
Goodbye Rosemary, goodbye Rosemary
GOOD PHONE
Back in the days of covered wagons
A man had his own way
Whether talkin' to a woman
Or crossing the U.S.A.
No telephones were ringing
No angry words exchanged.
I wish I was back in the saddle now
Riding on the range.
Let your fingers do the walking
Call me up some time
I'm listed under Broken Hearts
Looking for a good time.
I can't reach out and touch you
You're hung up on the line
I'm your disconnected number now
And you're a private line.
Well, I used to be so happy,
When you gave good 'phone.
I could call you up from anywhere
For a little bit of home
But now my heart is aching
After every call
By the way you talk you'd think
You never gave good 'phone at all.
Let your fingers do the walking
Call me up some time
I'm listed under Broken Hearts
Looking for a good time.
I can't reach out and touch you
You're hung up on the line

GREY RIDERS
The night was cold
And the wind was howling
I was awaken by the sound
Of hoof beats pounding.
Outside the window, on the ground
Our hound dog was growling
Grey Riders flew across my lawn
I looked again and they all were gone.
That voice was calling
And it cut through the night
Come on boys, let her go.
Up on a hill
They rode in one long column
They were freezing with the chills
Of the new day dawning.
Their hair long and grey
They heard just one voice calling
Grey Riders on the morning sky,
The sun made diamonds of their road-weary eyes.
That voice is calling
And it cut through the night
Come on boys, let her go.
The night was cold

HAWAIIAN SUNRISE
Pretty Maui Mama
Lying over the water
With my sun in your eyes
When you hear the melody play
It changes every day
Oh, Hawaiian sunrise
Once when we were there
We had relaxing times,
Thought we might settle down.
But the music called me
And my friends have much to spread around,
We moved from town to town.
Hawaiian sunrise.
And in the morning when you rise,
Will you look in my son's eyes?
I know you do.
Pretty Maui Mama
Lying over the water
With my moon in your eyes
From my hotel window in the clouds
I love you right out loud.
Ohm Hawaiian sunrise.
And in the morning when you rise,
Will you look in my son's eyes?
I know you do.
HELLO LONELY WOMAN
Well, hello lonely woman
Won't you take a walk with me.
I know a place where we can go
Grab a bite to eat.
Hello lonely woman.
Are you feelin' all right?
Well, you look just like heaven
On a clear clear night.
Well, I know you're a lonely woman
And I know what's on your mind
I won't ask you any favors
I'm familiar with your kind.
I know you need me
Like a river needs rain
I won't ask you any favors
Until I pass this way again.

HIGH HEELS
Now, New York City on a Friday night
A lot of things happenin', a lot of bright lights.
Saw a pretty woman all dressed in red
She turned to me and this is what she said
She said, Honey I got the blues
I got the blues from ridin' all night in these high heel shoes.
Well, she took me to the corner that she called her home
Turned around and we were all alone.
Come on in, she said with a smile
Come on in and we can rest a while.
Well, Honey I got the blues
I got the blues from ridin' all night in these high heel shoes.
I said, Listen here, honey, I been around
You ain't foolin' me, 'cause I know what you've found.
She bent kinda low and then she tickled my lips.
She said, Listen here, son. I'm gonna give you a tip
Honey I got the blues
I got the blues from ridin' all night in these high heel shoes.
HILLBILLY BAND
There was an ill wind blowing
Through my hair last night
That froze me in my blue jeans.
I couldn't find a light
I know that something's coming
I can feel it in my bones
Thank God for those old country boys,
I ain't out here alone.
My friends all tell me
I got daggers in my eyes
There's an anger in my heart
That they don't realize
I'm mad as hell at something
That I don't understand
Thank God I'm on the road tonight
With this old hillbilly band.
Thank God I'm on the road tonight
With this old hillbilly band.
We may not be good looking
But we sure get outta hand
Was that The Devil's stagecoach
Flying over the Rio Grande?
Thank God I'm on the road tonight
With this old hillbilly band.
I swear that The Devil
Came visiting me last night
Surrounded my old stagecoach
With his eerie light
He was pounding on my windows
Rattling my wheels
I may not be The Devil
But I know just how he feels.
Thank God I'm on the road tonight
With this old hillbilly band.

HOMEFIRES
I'm not the same man
I was a while ago
I've learned some new things,
I hope that it shows.
I'm free to give my love,
I'm free to give my love,
But you're not the one I'm thinking of,
So for me the wheels are turning
Got to keep the homefires burning.
I'll walk these borders
I'll walk these borders
In search of a line,
Between young lovers
Who live separate lives.
How long can this go on?
How long can this go on?
I can hear another song,
Late at night when I've been drinking
Substitute comes at me winking.
