7 AND 7 IS
When I was a boy I thought about the times I'd be a man
I'd sit inside a bottle and pretend that I was in the can
But here in my lonely room I'd sit my mind in an ice cream cone
You can throw me if you wanna 'cause I'm a bone and I go, ip-ip-oop-ip-ip, yeah!
Well if I don't start crying it's because that I have got no eyes
My father's in the fireplace and my dog lies hypnotized
Through a crack of light I was unable to find my way
I'm trapped inside a night but I'm a day and I go, ip-ip- oop-ip-ip, yeah!
ROCKIN' PNEUMONIA AND THE BOOGIE WOOGIE FLU
I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia and-a boogie woogie flu
Want some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way's too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia and-a boogie woogie flu
I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feet's to slow
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia and-a boogie woogie flu
I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feet's to slow
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia and-a boogie woogie flu
Baby comin' now, I'm hurryin' home
I know she's leavin' 'cause I'm takin' too long
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia and-a boogie woogie flu
'Cause some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way's too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia and-a boogie woogiе flu
I wanna jump, oh yeah
I wanna holler, yeah
I wanna squeezе,
Alright
OH WELL
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Now, when I talked to God I knew he'd understand
He said, ''Stick by me, I'll be your guiding hand
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to''
Oh well
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
JENNY TAKE A RIDE!
Oh see, C. C. Rider

Come along, baby, don't want you to stop
Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo
WATCHING THE RIVER FLOW
What’s the matter with me
I don’t have much to say
Daylight sneaking through the window
And I’m still in this all-night café
Walking to and fro beneath the moon
Out to where the trucks are rolling slow
To sit down on this bank of sand
And watch the river flow
Wish I was back in the city
Instead of this old bank of sand
With the sun beating down over the chimney tops
And the true love so close at hand
If I had wings and I could fly
I know where I would go
But right now I’ll just sit here contentedly
And watch the river flow
People disagreeing on all just about everything
Makes you stop and all wonder why
Why only yesterday I saw somеbody on the street
Who just couldn’t help but cry
Oh, this old river keeps on rolling, though
No mattеr what gets in the way and which way the wind does blow
I’ll just sit here and watch the river flow
People disagreeing everywhere you look
Makes you want to stop and read a book
Only yesterday I saw somebody on the street
That was really shook
But this old river keeps on rolling, though
No matter what gets in the way and which way the wind does blow
And as long as it does I’ll just sit here
And watch the river flow
And as long as it does I’ll just sit here
And watch the river flow
LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL
Hey everybody
Let's have some fun
You only live but once and when you're dead, you're done
So let the good times roll
I said, let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Let the good times roll
Don't sit there mumblin'
Talkin' trash
If you wanna have a ball
Get out and spend some cash
And let the good times roll
I'm talkin' 'bout the good times
Make no difference if you're young or old
Good times roll
Why don't you tell еverybody
Rockets back in town
I got a dollar evеn ringin' the clock
Don't let nobody play me cheap
I got fifty cents more that I'm here to gonna keep
Let the good times roll
I let the good times roll
Make no difference if you're young or old
Let the good times roll
No matter whether rainy weather
You wanna have fun you gotta get yourself together
Ohhh, let the good times roll
DIXIE CHICKEN
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis and the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp, I met a southern belle
Well, she took me to the river where she cast her spell
And in that southern moonlight she sang this song so well
If you'll be my Dixie chicken I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
Well, we made all the hotspots, my money flowed likе wine
Then the lowdown southеrn whiskey, began to fog my mind
I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk
On the house at the end of town
Oh, but boy do I remember the strain of her refrain
And nights we spent together
And the way she called my name
If you'll be my Dixie chicken I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
Many years since she ran away
Guess that banjo player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
She's handy with a song
But then one night in the lobby of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well
As he handed me a drink he began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar began to sing along
If you'll be my Dixie chicken I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
SHAPES OF THINGS
Shapes of things before my eyes
Just teach me to despise
Will time make men more wise?
Here within my lonely frame
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Now the trees are almost green
But will they still be seen?
When time and tide have been
Fall into your passing hands
Please don't destroy thеse lands
Don't make them dеsert sands
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS
Well, 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
We met the bloody British in a town near New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We looked down a river and we see'd the British come
And there must havе been a hundred of 'em beatin' on thе drums
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
We stood beside our cotton bales and didn't say a thing
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Old Hickory said we could take 'em by surprise
If we didn't fire our muskets 'till we looked 'em in the eye
We held our fire 'till we see their faces well
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave 'em - well we
Fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down
So we grabbed an alligator and we fired another round
We filled his head with cannon balls, and powdered his behind
And when we touched the powder off the gator lost his mind
They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
To the Gulf of Mexico
To the Gulf of Mexico
LUCIFER
Well, cruisin' on the grey snakes till my dyin' day
Checkin' all the hen houses out along the way
Wastin' time, drinkin' wine
Life is short and I ain't lyin'
Livin' all I can through every day
You can call me Lucifer
If you think you should
Only now I know I'm good
Every night I'm barrelhousin' till the moon is low
Shoutin' blues and payin' dues and throwin' way my dough
Ramblin', gamblin', lovin', shovin', probably won't end up with nothin'
But at least I'll reap the seeds I sow
You can call me Lucifer
If you think you should
Only now I know I'm good
Funky water, farmers daughter gonna make the law
Lucy Blue, Chicago Green, I'll love 'em till they thaw
Courtin' all the lovely foxes, brunette, redhеads, goldilocks
Takin' time to grind my crosscut saw
You can call me Lucifer
If you think you should
Now I know I'm good
WHITE ROOM
In a white room with black curtains near the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles on you leaving, my contentment
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
You said no strings could secure you at the station
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
I walked into such a sad time at the station
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
