When Mama's Happy

When mama's happy
I used to chase women but now it aint no fun
I love women gather them by the ton
I quit that game now they won’t run
When I first met my wife she was still a child
Schoolbooks and mischief, fiery eyes
My nights were numbered nevermore wild
(chorus)
Be good to one woman one time is the name of this tune
Sweet Georgia peach of mine I know she hung the moon
Love chunky enough for a fork but I use a spoon
Collard greens, black-eyed peas
Pork chops piled high
Keep it clean; Keep her pleased
Ice box lemon pie
When mama's happy the whole house is happy too When mommas glad you’ll be smiling too
When mama's mad because you’ve been bad
You’ve got some work to do

CALAMITY JANE
High on the Hog Ranch, raising Cain
I crossed a bullwhackin’ woman courtin’ no restrain
A wide-open country girl born on the dusty plain
6 feet tall, standing like a wreck of a train
Leather skin brown as the arid terrain
I long to persuade Miss Martha Jane
With a bottle of Rye I started my campaign
“You are courting Calamity,” she explained
“Since I was knee-high, I could out ride, out shoot, out drink any man”
She was dissolute, devilish, with a touch of insane
“I’ve got wanderlust honey and I can’t be tamed”
From Bottle Bottoms we caught that midnight train
Roosters crowed in morning rain
Down the muddy trail I did forfeit my claim
But my heart remains with Calamity Jane

Falling
My tireless mouth has nothing to say
The words I choose to use only fail and fall in the way
I keep falling over you
Seas darkly now turn blue
Falling over you
Tumbling quickly and going nowhere
Reach out and find me I’m all over
Catch - me with your
Smile / you're my calm calama -tease
I where your horizon on my knees
Lessons in silk and flesh
Spinning in absence
Spinning in abstinence [chorus]
My tireless mouth has nothing to say
The words I choose to use only fail and fall in the way
I keep falling over you
A thousand years and it’s still true
Falling over you
My feet are useless in these boots
When I fly over you
Reach out and catch me I’m all over/ catch me
My tireless mouth has nothing to say

Spitting in the eye
I live to see your smile
My heart beats for your embrace
Only angels in heaven
Could measure your grace
When we kissed I was convinced
I never had a kiss before
When we loved
I know I never really loved before
Spitting in the eye of the devil
Don’t care if we ever win
Time never fades
She comes swinging around again
Spitting in the eye of the devil
Don’t care because we never win
Hope don’t fade
She comes swinging around again

Gone

Gone Peaches
Gone too long
Lips too far
From your hips by far
Breathe heat
Desire and devotion
Keep in motion
Hear your voice
Shake your tree
Shake your peaches free
C B7 Shake your peaches free

San Antone

In a little cantina by the river in San Antone
Walked in the only seniorita who could offer this heart a home
I had prayed for respite
When I thought it would not come at all
She took my hand and asked if I was alone
Somehow tequila proceeded before my eyes open
My mind rolled again
To a little cafe between Lake Mead and the Altar run
Dusty circles we spun in the new Neon
With your hand in mine
I’m free of this time
She took my name before the desert sun
Somehow tequila proceeded before my eyes open
My mind rolled again
RED dust RED dust RED dust
In a little bodega I made her when the water rushed her to my door
A white cotton dress was all she wore
I had prayed for respite
When I thought it would not come at all
She came took my love and gave me more
Soon the blossom proceeded to open
My mind rolled again

Commodicide
It’s all in the way, you. Commodicide.
I’m getting up in the morning
I believe I’ll dust my broom
Getting up in the morning so my friends can have my
Room
Child in a sweatshop
Coal in a mountain top
All has a price to me
Revised History
Chain Universities
A mind is a commodity
When hands can work no more
They can shake ‘em at my Superstore
Tiger Tiger fracking blight
I shall never see the sight
Of a tree
I see a commodity
Land of TV
Home of the slaves
Every Grain
Of the Amber waves
Tucked away from empathy
Cloned cattle seas
Feed
On monster seed
See the forest and the trees
Are in the way of progress and factories
And a landfill
So you can dump your junk and refill
On commodities
Old McDonald was a junkie
He went on a nitrate spree
He killed all the fish in river
Down to the deep blue sea
EE II OH!
It’s all in the way you live your Life

All Ways
Today your fiery sun touched softly
Breeze aloft and hardly
From darkness, you brought day
Your love is all ways
There is something we’ve got to say and we throw our arms down
Take the fingers from ears taste the bitter tears
Am/ C/ G/ D Am/ C / E
We long to know you
Embrace adore you
Sorrow hangs our souls in debt
We cast away pulling nothing in our net
Precious seed has not sprouted yet
Thunderous deeds have got us far as we can get
We make war on all living things
Sing empty verses and keep our hands clean
We have failed to keep our brother from harm
Or carry our sister in true loving arms
So let your tempest rain let it storm our life
May you wash us from high and blow away our lies
