30 DAYS IN THE HOLE
All right all right all right all right, yeah

Chicago Green, talkin' 'bout Black Lebanese
A dirty room and a silver coke spoon
Give me my release, come on
Black napalese, it's got you weak in your knees
Sneeze some dust that you got buzzed on
You know it's hard to believe

30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
That's what they give you
30 days in the hole
I know

Newcastle Brown, I'm tellin' you, it can sure smack you down
Take a greasy whore and a rollin' dance floor
It's got your head spinnin' round
If you live on the road, well there's a new highway code
You take the urban noise with some dirt with poison
It's gonna lessen your load

30 days in the hole
That's what they give you now
30 days in the hole
Oh, yeah
30 days in the hole
All right, all right
30 days in the hole

What you doin' boy?
You here for 30 days
Get, get, get your long hair cut
And cut out your ways

Black napalese, it got you weak in your knees
Gonna sneeze some dust that you got busted on
You know it's so hard to please
Newcastle Brown can sure smack you down
You take a greasy whore and a rollin' dance floor
You know you're jailhouse-bound

30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
Oh, yeah
30 days in the hole
30 days, 30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole

32-20 BLUES
If I send for my baby, and she don't come
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none

And if she gets unruly, thinks she don't want do
If she gets unruly, and thinks she don't want do
Take my 32-20, and cut her half in two

She got a thirty-eight special, but I believe it's most too light
She got a thirty-eight special, but I believe it's most too light
I got a 32-20, got to make the camps alright

If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
If I send for my baby, man, and she don't come
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can't help her none

I'm gonna shoot my pistol, gonna shoot my Gatlin' gun
I'm gonna shoot my pistol, gonna shoot my Gatlin' gun
You made me love you, now your man have come

Aw baby, where you stayed last night
Ah baby, where you stayed last night
You got your hair all tangled, and you ain't talkin' right

Got a thirty-eight special, boys, it do very well
Got a thirty-eight special, boys, it do very well
I got a 32-20 now, and it’s a burnin’

If I send for my baby, man and she don’t come
If I send for my baby, man and she don’t come
All the doctors in Wisconsin sure can’t help her none

Hey hey baby, where you stayed last night
Hey hey baby, where you stayed last night
You didn’t come home until the sun was shinin’ bright

Ah boys, I just can’t take my rest
Ah boys, I just can’t take my rest
With this 32-20 layin’ up and down my breast

CORTEZ THE KILLER
He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
And that palace in the sun.

On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wandered
With the secrets of the worlds.

And his subjects gathered 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see.

And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on.

Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones

They carried them to the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built up with their bare hands
What we still can't do today.

And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way.

He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer.

DON’T STEP ON THE GRASS, SAM
Staring at the boob tube
turning up the big nob
trying to find life in the wasteland
searching for a program
gonna deal with mary jane
ready for a trip to the head land

Obnoxious Joe comes on the screen
along with his guest self-rightous Sam
some old guy who doesn't count
his hair and clothes are much to out
pushin' back his glasses
SAM says
he was elected by the masses
with that in mind
he starts to unwind
a viscous attack upon the grasses

It's mean and evil, wicked and nasty
don't step on the grass, Sam
when we ruin our fair country
don't be such an ass, Sam
when we hook your sons and daughters
your so full of shit, Sam
all will pay who disagree with me

Disinformation Joe and Sam
feedin' it to the nation
but the one that didn't count
counted'em out
exposing all their false quotations
faced by an awkward situation
It's all they had to save the day

It's mean and evil, wicked and nasty
don't step on the grass, Sam
when we ruin our fair country
don't be such an ass, Sam
when we hook your sons and daughters
your so full of shit, Sam
all will pay who disagree with me
please give up you already lost the fight alright

You waste my coin, Sam all you can
to jail my fellow man
for smokin' of the noble weed
you need much more than him
youv'e been telling lies so long
some believe they're true
so they close there eyes to things
they have no right to do
just as soon as you are gone
hope will start to climb
please don't wait around to long
your wastin' prescious time

It's mean and evil, wicked and nasty
don't step on the grass, Sam
when we ruin our fair country
don't be such an ass, Sam
when we hook your sons and daughters
your so full of shit, Sam
all will pay who disagree with me
please give up you already lost the fight alright

DRIVIN’ RAIN
Do you know me I'm the drivin' rain
And my mama was a hurricane
Dear old daddy before he stormed out high on window pane
Said you're my one and only boy child
Call you the drivin' rain

Drivin' rain, drivin' rain
Tttalkin' ' bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
But they all want to know me
I'm the drivin' rain

It all started back in '69
I hit the ground running
Couldn't wait to hear those gears grind
Like my daddy I'm stone cold out of my mind
I've driven 'round this world one, two, three, four, five hundred times

Drivin' rain, drivin' rain
Tttalkin' ' bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
But they all want to know me
I'm the drivin' rain

Do you remember first time you heard the thunder call
Wind was moaning, creeping through your bedroom wall
Moonlight splashing enough to make a rich girl fall
Lightning crashing make a strong, strong woman crawl

Drivin' rain, drivin' rain
Tttalkin' ' bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
But they all want to know me
I'm the drivin' rain

Drivin' rain, drivin' rain
Tttalkin' ' bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
But they all want to know me
I'm the drivin' rain

GAMBLER’S ROLL
The dealer sits alone in the dark
A cigarette shines on his very last card
Everything he had - he watched it come and go
On a Gambler's roll

A cold wind blows a young girl's world apart
She bet it all on the jack of hearts
She gained her freedom - but she lost her soul
On a gambler's roll

The Gambler he rides - rides on a fool's train
Trading silver for gold
But his luck will change - time takes it toll
On a gambler's roll

The dealer knows - it's just about his last game
Not even she knows the sorrow and the shame
As the .45 deals a fatal blow
On a gambler's roll

The Gambler he rides - rides on a fool's train
Trading silver for gold
But his luck will change - time takes it toll
On a gambler's roll

PATCHWORK QUILT
I never knew you
But then who really did?
If you were at all like me
You managed to keep yourself hid
A patchwork quilt of a life
Memories embroidered
On your soul

So please forgive me
For putting you in my song
But the spirit she moves me
In fact she pushes me along
It's a patchwork quilt of a life
Can't stop the river
Just let it roll

We were at Jones Beach
When we got the word
Saddest sound that I ever heard
The bluest note that nobody could play
Ravens sang with us that night on the stage
Tears of sadness, tears of rage
But nobody spoke, we all felt old
And in the way

So walk beside me
Or above me, I don't know
These days it sure seems
I'm lost where ever I go

God, how could you, I heard someone say
And what do we do with our lives now anyway?
Now that our North Star can no longer be found

But there's a banjo moon in a tie-dyed sky
Hippies dance and babies cry
Church bells ring as a silver-haired angel look down
And the blood of his music runs through the veins of our guitars
Bright lights, Dark Star

I never knew you
But then who really did
If you were at all like me
You managed to keep yourself hid

SAD AND DEEP AS YOU
Lips that are as warm could be,
Lips that speak to soon.
Lips that tell a story,
Sad and deep as you.

Smile that’s warm as summer sun,
Smile that gets you through.
Smile that tells a story,
Sad and deep as you.

The eyes that are the window,
Eyes that are the view.
Eyes that tell a story,
Sad and deep as you.

Tears that are unspoken words,
The tears that are the truth.
Tears that tell a story,
Sad and deep as you.

The eyes that are the window,
Eyes that are the view.
Eyes that tell a story,
Sad and deep as you

Oh you, oh you, oh you sad

Smile that’s warm as summer sun,
Smile that gets you through.
Smile that tells a story,
Sad and deep as you.

As you oh you as you sad
As you as you

Lips that are as warm could be,
Lips that speak to soon.

SPANISH MOON
Well the night that was high, we got into town
Was the night of the rain, that froze on the ground
Down the street I heard such a sorrowful tune
Comin' from the place they call the Spanish Moon

Well I stepped inside, and slipped by the door
While a dark girl sang, and played the guitar
There was hookers, and hustlers, they filled up the room
I heard about this place they call the Spanish Moon

There's whiskey, and bad cocaine
Poison get you just the same
And if that -- that don't -- kill you soon
The women will down at the Spanish Moon

Well I pawned my watch, and sold my ring
Just to hear that girl singing, yeah, yeah
I don't care who, you can wake up ruined
You can lose it all down at the Spanish Moon

There's whiskey, and bad cocaine
Poison get you just the same
And if that -- that don't -- kill you soon
The women will down at the Spanish Moon

THE HUNTER
They call me the hunter, that's my name.
A pretty woman like you, is my only game.
I bought me a love gun, just the other day.
And I aim, to aim it your way.
Ain't no use to hide, ain't no use to run.
Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun.

The first time I saw you, standing on the street.
I says to myself, woo ain't she sweet.
I've got my love gun loaded, with hugs and kisses.
And when I pull the trigger, there will be no misses.
Ain't no need to hide, ain't no use to run.
Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun.

Ain't no need to hide, ain't no use to run.
Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun.

I'm the big bad hunter baby.

How can I miss when I've got dead aim.

VOODOO CHILE
Lord I'm a voodoo chile,
Lord I'm a voodoo chile

Well, the night I was born
Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red
The night I was born
I swear the moon turned a fire red
Well my poor mother cried out "lord, the gypsy was right!"
And I seen her fell down right dead
(Have mercy)

Well, mountain lions found me there waitin'
And set me on a eagles back
Well, mountain lions found me there,
And set me on a eagles wing
(It's the eagles wing, baby, what did I say)
He took me past to the outskirts of infinity,
And when he brought me back,
He gave me a Venus witch's ring
Hey!
And he said "Fly on, fly on"
Because I'm a voodoo chile, baby, voodoo chile
Hey!

Well, I make love to you,
And lord knows you'll feel no pain
Say, I make love to you in your sleep,
And lord knows you felt no pain
(Have mercy)
'Cause I'm a million miles away
And at the same time I'm right here in your picture frame
(Yeah! What did I say now)
'Cause I'm a voodoo chile
Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile Yeah!

(Yeah, but I say now yeah)

Well my arrows are made of desire
From far away as Jupiter's sulphur mines
Say my arrows are made of desire, desire
From far away as Jupiter's sulphur mines
(Way down by the Methane Sea, yeah)
I have a humming bird and it hums so loud,
You think you were losing your mind, hmmm...

Well I float in liquid gardens
And Arizona new red sand
(Yeah)
I float in liquid gardens
Way down in Arizona red sand

Well, I taste the honey from a flower named Blue,
Way down in California
And the New York drowns as we hold hands

'Cause I'm a voodoo chile
Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile
Yeah!

WAR PIGS
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds
Oh Lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight
They leave their role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'till their judgment day comes

Now in darkness world stops turning
Ashes where their bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of judgment God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan laughing spreads his wings
Oh Lord yeah!
