Hellbound Train

Hellbound Train I'm on it's track
Too late now to turn my back
Conductor coming ticket in his hand
Come to claim my soul
Take me to his land

Hellbound Train I been so wrong
Too late now I'm moving on
Conductor standing watch in his hand
Got to get aboard take you to his land

I'm going down the road on the Hellbound Train
Take a long look lady 'cause you won't see me again
Take a last look lady, yes hard and long
'Cause I'm going down the road on the Hellbound Train
Hellbound Train driving slow
Move on down to the Hell below
Conductor please won't you lend a hand?
Got to get on board take me to your land

Yes I know I've been so wrong
Too late now I'm moving on
Hellbound Train I'm on it's track
Moving down I can't look back

I'm going down the road on the Hellbound Train
Take a long look lady 'cause you won't see me again
Take a last look lady, yes hard and long
'Cause I'm going down the road on the Hellbound Train

I'm going down the road on the Hellbound Train
Take a long look lady 'cause you won't see me again
Take a last look lady, yes hard and long
'Cause I'm going down the road on the Hellbound Train

Lost and flying down the road on the Hellbound Train
Lost and flying down the road on the Hellbound Train
Hand and hand with the devil

A Hard way to go

Ain't got time for doubts or fears
Ain't got time for shallow tears
Ain't got time to bare my soul
Because I still got a hard way to go

Said that you got a losing hand
Ain't no point in you raising sand
Ain't got time to bare your soul
Because I still got a hard way to go

And it's a crying shame
That you can't lay the blame
On anybody else but yourself

Wish that you had my sympathy
You ain't got no hold on me
And my heart is getting cold
And I still got a hard way to go

And it's a crying shame
That you can't lay the blame
On anybody else but yourself

And I still got a hard way to go

Big City Lights

I've been a long way from home and I can't sleep at
night I've go a funny feeling something just ain't
right I'll just stand here watching the big city
lights

I keep thinking 'bout my baby, bound to go away
Well she gone and leave me yes, she's gone to stay
Now I'll get even baby some sweet day

I've been a long way from home and I can't sleep
at night I've go a funny feeling something just
ain't right I'll just stand here watching the big
city lights

I've been a long way from home and I can't sleep
at night I've go a funny feeling something just
ain't right Got a long way from home and the big
city lights

Boogie Brothers

Sometime I feel like a smoke without a light
Sometimes I fell like a ghost that's died of fright
But the Boogie Brothers got to be in town tonight
The Boogie Brothers got to be in town tonight

Streets signs and lights are fading, fading into
one Came down from the moon and up with the light
of the sun Yes the Boogie Brothers got to be in
town tonight The Boogie Brothers got to be in town
tonight

Sometimes I feel like a joke without a laugh Most
times I feel like a whole that's dropped in half
But the Boogie Brothers got to be in town tonight
The Boogie Brothers got to be in town tonight

Hero to Zero

I went from Hero To Zero
And I'm still sinking down
Money in the bank
Would lift me straight
off the ground
Oh, high down to low ain't much fun
When your time is over
and your day is done
Hero to Zero
Hero to Zero
Oh, Hero to Zero

I had a high time of my time
Now look where I am
Yes I'm down on my luck
Doing the best that I can
No way out but, I ain't gonna cry
Guess I'll kiss the
high life goodbye
Hero to Zero
Hero to Zero
Oh, Hero to Zero

Oh well the high life was my life
But everything has to end
I was once at the top
But I died with my trend
No way out but, I ain't gonna cry
Guess I'll kiss the
high life goodbye
Hero to Zero
Hero to Zero
I can't go on

Lost and Lonely Child

Lost and lonely child, living in a world of fear
Lose yourself in another day
Find out there's another way
Lost and lonely child, living in a world of fear
Lose yourself in another day
Find out there's another way

My oh my, you look so blue
Just turn and look my way, a smile will do
Catch it now, has to be soon
Or lonely hours will be your doom

Lost and lonely child won't you
realize we're all the same
Realize it's just a game
Left in our rooms we're all the same

When your sad, feeling blue
Don't feel sorry 'cause it's up to you
Every man and boy spends a night alone
All the same alone in our rooms

My oh my, you look so blue
Just turn and look my way, a smile will do
Catch it now, has to be soon
Or lonely hours will be your doom

Lost and lonely child, living in a world of fear
Lose yourself in another day
Find out there's another way
Lost and lonely child, living in a world of fear
Lose yourself in another day
Find out there's another way

Lost and lonely child
Your a lost and lonely child
Look my way, and a smile will do
And I'll help you pull through
Lost and lonely child

Doin' Fine

Sometimes I think about the way my life is supposed to be
That I am what I am and that's enough for me
I'm doin' fine, I'm doin' alright
Gonna be with my baby tonight

You can make it, you can break it,and
you can be what you wanna be
I'm happy with the world around, it's good enough for me
'Cause I'm doin' fine, I'm doin' alright
Gonna be with my baby tonight

No worries, feeling fine
When she's by my side
No worries, that girl is mine
And she'll be by my side

You can make it, you can break it,and
you can be what you wanna be
I'm happy with the world around, it's good enough for me
'Cause I'm doin' fine, I'm doin' alright
Gonna be with my baby tonight

You can make it, you can break it,and
you can be what you wanna be
I'm happy with the world around, it's good enough for me
'Cause I'm doin' fine, I'm doin' alright
Gonna be with my baby tonight
Gonna be with my baby tonight
I wanna be with my baby tonight

Jack the Toad

Jerimiah said his peace and fell back in the road
He was shot by Coulee Reese
Who they nick-named Jack The Toad
Just across his shoulder just a little to the right
He heard the click of a 45 hammer
So he throws himself down and he hits the ground
Rolls right over and spins 'round
And with one good shot, just one good shot
He brings that villain right down
In true "Hour Western" manner

Bad, bad news, he was bad, bad news
I knew Coulee, Coulee never lost his cool

A legend grew and Jack The Toad knew
To back up all the talk
One day soon, preferably noon
He's going to have to take the long walk
A poker game and a fast stake
Of these Jack was the master
But a man called Pete
At the end of a dusty dusty street
He's just about six feet
Now he just might, you know he just might
He might be a lttle faster

Bad, bad news, he was bad, bad news
I knew Coulee, Coulee never lost his cool

I'll be blowed, I'll be blowed, I'll be blowed
It's Jack The Toad

I'll be blowed, I'll be blowed, I'll be blowed
It's Jack The Toad

Well it had to happen on a summers' day
When Jack was feeling good
But a friend of a friend,
promised a friend of a friend
Promised a friend of a friend he would
But many brave men have said the same thing
Again and again and again
Now Jack, when he went out to face Pete
For the final showdown
He was just a little bit high
He'd been drinking and smoking
And he thought he was so fast
He made the last move
And that was the last move he made

Bad, bad news, he was bad, bad news
I knew Coulee, Coulee never lost his cool

Well now he's gone but his memory lives on
In the mind of every comic strip reader
Some say weren't Jack, some say was camphor
Some say he was just a bleeder
One fact, one fact remain, always be the same
Now on your way through life
Sometimes you just got to be a little bad
I knew Jack and, my goodness, he was bad
He was bad, bad news
You just got to be a little bad
because, if you ain't
The great gun fighter in the sky
Ain't got no one to save
And if you're just a little bad
Just a little bad
Nobody forgets your name

Bad, bad news, he was bad, bad news
Bad, oh my goodness, Jack was bad news

Mr. Downchild

Well I'm a downchild baby,
And I've been down since I was born,
Well I'm a downchild baby,
And I was down the day I was born, ohhh,
Won't somebody please, Help the downchild.

I've been walking the streets woman,
You know since I were quite young,
And I've been walking the streets woman,
Well ya know since I were
quite young, quite young,
Won't somebody please, oh help the downchild.
Help me now.

Oh. help me baby,
Well you know the shape I'm in,
Oh won't somebody please help me baby,
When you know the shape I'm in,
Won't somebody please help the downchild.

Oh you know the downchild baby,
And I"ve been down since I was born,
And I'm a downchild baby,
And I've been down since I was born,
Won't somebody please, help the downchild.

And I cried baby,
And I cried the whole night long,
And I cried,
Til the tears coming rolling down,
You know I cired.
And I know I cried,
Oh I'm a downchild baby, tell my mother.

Time Does Tell

Time Does Tell
Can see it in your eyes
Grow a little older now
Tell me who is wise
Take a look around you
Tell me what do you see
People growing older
Just like you and me
We have come a long way
From our 1st Street Hello
Spend our time looking for
The key to the door
My mind is made up
I know where I'm headed to
When your days are over
The world is through with you
Chorus
I can't tell you what I know
We are all seeking for more
I can't tell you what I know
We are all seeking for more

Time does tell
It's sad but still it's true
Things you may have said and done
Come back home to you
Look into the future
See the clock upon the wall
The hand of time will move on

When we're dead and gone
Listen to my reason
Forget about your dream
Don't look back in anger
What you could have been

My mind is made up
I know where I'm headed to
When your days are over
The world is through with you
Chorus
I can't tell you what I know
We are all seeking for more
I can't tell you what I know
We are all seeking for more

Time Does Tell
Can see it in your eyes
Grow a little older now
Tell me who is wise
Take a look around you
Tell me what do you see
People growing older
Just like you and me
We have come a long way
From our 1st Street Hello
Spend our time looking for
The key to the door
My mind is made up
I know where I'm headed to
When your days are over
The world is through with you
Chorus
I can't tell you what I know
We are all seeking for more
I can't tell you what I know
