MANY MOONS AGO IN THE FUTURE
Many moons ago in the future
When the womenfolk had rightfully just about given up on us
A mangy group of outlaws hid out by a precious water source
While the real bad guide quietly stole the seas of life
Thankfully music still helped our spirits fly.

SHOW ME
Show me
Show me
Show me
Show me

Do you see people's lives being lost on the sacred land
And the battle over water being fought for the baby's hand

Show me
Show me
Show me
Show me

When the women of the world are free to stand up for themselves
And the promises made stop gathering dust on the shelf

Show me
Show me

PARADOX PASSAGE 1
(Instrumental)

HEY
(Instrumental)

PARADOX PASSAGE 2
(Instrumental)

DIGGIN' IN THE DIRT (CHORUS)
Diggin’ in the dirt
That’s our way of life
Diggin’ through the day and through the night
Diggin’ for the things that’ll make us feel alright
Diggin’ in the dirt


PARADOX PASSAGE 3
Looks like a full corn moon
Yep, or a barley moon
Magic time


PEACE TRAIL

Up in the rainbow, teepee sky
No one's looking down on you or I
That's just a mirror in your eye
Ain't taken my last hit yet
I know that things are different now
(I see the same old signs
But something new is growing)
Don't think I'll cash it in yet
Don't think I'll put down my last bet
(I'm gonna keep my hand in
Because something new is growing)

Think I'll hit the Peace Trail
Take a trip back home to my old town
'Cause everyone back there says
Something new is growing

Up in the rainbow, teepee sky
No one's looking down on you or I
It's just a mirror in our eye
If I believe in someone
I have to believe in myself
(I have to take good care
When something new is growing)
The world is full of changes
Sometimes all these changes make me sad
(But I keep planting seeds
Till something new is growing)

I think I'll hit the Peace Trail
I know that treasure takes its time
(I have to take good care
When something new is growing)
I think I'll hit the Peace Trail
I think I like my chances now
(I have to take good care
When something new is growing)
I think I'll hit the Peace Trail
I think I'll hit the Peace Trail now
Because something new is growing


POCAHONTAS
Aurora borealis
The icy sky at night
Paddles cut the water
In a long and hurried flight
From the white man to the fields of green
And the homeland we've never seen.

They killed us in our tepee
And they cut our women down
They might have left some babies
Cryin' on the ground
But the firesticks and the wagons come
And the night falls on the setting sun.

They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have turned to blanks
In my little box at the top of the stairs
With my Indian rug and a pipe to share.

I wish a was a trapper
I would give thousand pelts
To sleep with Pocahontas
And find out how she felt
In the mornin' on the fields of green
In the homeland we've never seen.
Pocahontas


COWGIRL JAM
(Instrumental)

ANGEL FLYING TOO CLOSE TO THE GROUND
(That was good
Yeah, it was
We’ll relax and smoke a beer over here
Smoke a beer
Sip a joint
Hell of a fire
It’s a nice fire, it’s good)

If you had not have fallen
I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
I patched up your broken wing
And hung around a while
Tryin’ to keep your spirits up and your fever down

I knew someday that you would fly away
Love is the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

So fly on, fly on past, the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up than see you down
So leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

Leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground


PARADOX PASSAGE 4
(Instrumental)

DIGGIN' IN THE DIRT
There’s a bunch of boulders down in the valley
Under every one there’s a jewel
Maybe I should go down there
Find out for myself
Maybe I’m somebody’s fool

There’s a bunch of boulders down in the valley
And under every one there’s a jewel
Maybe I should go down there
Find out for myself
Maybe I’m somebody’s fool

Diggin’ in the dirt
That’s our way of life
Diggin’ through the day and through the night
Diggin’ for the things that’ll make us feel alright
Diggin’ in the dirt

Well the moon’s so big and round
It’s hard to keep our feet on the ground
‘Cause every time we play
They start to fly
We’re floatin’ around in space
But we can’t forget our place
We keep diggin’ in the dirt

Diggin’ in the dirt
That’s our way of life
Diggin’ through the day and through the night
Diggin’ for the things that’ll make us feel alright
Diggin’ in the dirt


PARADOX PASSAGE 5
I think he’s out there takin’ a leak
I think I heard the call of the silver Eagle


RUNNING TO THE SILVER EAGLE
(Instrumental)

BABY WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO?
You got me peeping, got me hiding
You got me hiding, peeping, hiding, where you want me
Let it roll, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got me doing what you want me
Baby when you wanna let go?


PARADOX PASSAGE 6
(Instrumental)

OFFERINGS
(Instrumental)

HOW LONG?
How long?
Baby, how long?
Further on up the road
Somebody’s gonna hurt you
Like you hurt me

Further on up the road
Somebody’s gonna hurt you
Like you hurt me
Further on up the road
Just you wait and see

Now you’re laughing pretty baby
Someday you gonna be cryin’
I went down to the station
Well, I saw there was no train

How long?
How long?
How long?
How long?

HAPPY TOGETHER
No matter how they toss the dice, it had to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
I can't see me lovin' nobody but you, ba-ba-ba-ba

TUMBLEWEED
Tumbleweed
Your inner’s beauty
Is a peace sign to me
Life is full of little tricks and
We can always pick up sticks and build again
That’s what we do

Harmony
The way we hold on
When we tumble
Through the night
Life is full of strange delights and
In the darkness we find lights to make our way
Back home again

Tumbleweed I’m barin’ my soul
To you
Tumbleweed It’s all that I’ve got
That’s true

Bite me now
With your confusion
Your happiness
And delight
It will only hurt a moment
Then it’s gone and you can see there’s nothing left
To leave a mark

Animal
Care for your kind
In the way you always do
When the flower moon is shining
It’s eclipse and your lips smilin’ comfort me
And I comfort you

Tumbleweed
Your inner’s beauty
Is a peace sign to me
