YEAHRIGHT

And So It Goes...

They’re buying up hollow point shells on Christmas eve.
For the life of me I can’t tell you why.
These days, more dangerous folk been coming round here.
And I can see them all out there lined up ruining the view.
And there’s so damn many of them now there’s nothing left that we can do.

Used to be you got your ass kicked, now you get your head blown off.
Sarah Vaughan is singing I don’t get around much any more.
Spare change is a way of life, but I don’t call that living,
And I guess some people got all their faith in a gun.
Well they ought to rest easy because we got enough guns for everyone.

Chorus:

Over and over and so it goes,
Over and over until we can’t do a thing about it.
Over and over and so it goes, on and on...
Everybody’s trigger happy now, what you gonna do?
And if there is an enemy, did you ever think it might be you?

Let It Out

I’m just sittin on a fence here, no place to go,
Can’t say they love me. Won’t say they don’t.
And then it comes to me all to quickly, can’t let it go,
You think I’m crazy, I’ll let you know.

Bridge:

Was it just a place that I really wanted to see?
Was it just a world that I wanted to call my own?
And if I had the chance to do it all over, would I go back again?
Well, I think I might do it better this time.

Chorus:
Let it out...

Once upon a time back there somewhere, I don’t really know,
Some voices haunt me, on with the show.
And then it comes to me all too quickly, can’t let it go.

Bridge:

Was it just a place that I really wanted to see?
Was it just a world that I wanted to call my own?
And if I had the chance to do it all over, would I go back again?
Well, I think I might do it better this time.

Chorus:
Let it out...

How Will They Take Me Now?

You know I don’t like to waste time,
Because I don’t have the time to waste, I know.
But then I sure seem to wanna walk the fine line,
And then I don’t have the time to waste, I know.

Bridge:

(and they say)
I can’t do this, I can’t do that,
I can’t do anything.
They won’t see this, they don’t see that,
They don’t see anything.

Chorus:

So think it over, how will they take me now?
Can’t get over, not when they weigh things,
Not when they weigh things down.

And I wait such a long time,
But then I hate to have to compromise.
Sometimes I think about what’s on the lifeline,
Because I don’t have the time to waste, I know.

Bridge:

(and they say)
I can’t do this, I can’t do that,
I can’t do anything.
They won’t see this, they don’t see that,
They don’t see anything.

Chorus:

So think it over, how will they take me now?
Can’t get over, not when they weigh things,
Not when they weigh things down.

And I lost myself one night,
And I couldn’t find me anywhere.
Then I stared into the dream,
And the wind came around the corner.

Bridge:

(and they say)
They don’t hear this, they won’t hear that,
Hell, they are not listening.
They won’t see this, they don’t see that,
They don’t see anything.

Chorus:

So think it over, how will they take me now?
Can’t get over, not when they weigh things,
Not when they weigh things down.

Halfway ‘Round The World

All that we wanted,
Was everything that we could gain,
And all that we asked for,
Was just the chance to stay the same.

All that we borrowed,
Was some of the days and all the nights,
And after tomorrow,
We would set the stars alight.

Hope is the answer.
A hand of comfort down a lonely road,
And that’s what we came for,
Tried to hide, but our feelings showed.

Chorus:

We were halfway ‘round the world,
We was different.
We were halfway ‘round the world,
We was different.

Out of the morning,
Came the call that we would take,
After the warning,
Came the promises we’d make.

How did we get here?
Gave our all to make our way,
And that’s what we wanted,
To run like hell from yesterday.

Chorus:

We were halfway ‘round the world,
We was different.
We were halfway ‘round the world,
We was different

Danielle

I could not write you a letter,
I could not tell you to your face,
The way I feel inside,
Some things you just can’t hide.
And though I never seem to win in the end,
I know I did right by you, girl.

Chorus:

Where do you come from,
Danielle?
Little piece of heaven that I know so well.
The thing with dreams is that you never can tell,
Can you, baby?

I wish that I could have been the one,
To see the sunlight warm your beautiful face.
One thing you’ve got to know,
No matter where you go,
My heart will hold a sacred place.
And though I never seem to win in the end,
I know I never was a loser.

Chorus:

Where do you come from,
Danielle?
Little piece of heaven that I know so well.
The thing with dreams is that you never can tell,
Can you, baby?

Bridge:

I was always the dreamer,
Who never could see.
What I’ve taken for granted,
Has been taken from me.
But dreams come true,
And one of mine lives on in you,
Dani

Chorus:

Where do you come from,
Danielle?
Little piece of heaven that I know so well.
The thing with dreams is that you never can tell,
Can you, baby?

And though it hurts to have to love you this way,
I know that it’s love.

Chorus:

Where do you come from,
Danielle?
Little piece of heaven that I know so well.
The thing with dreams is that you never can tell,
Can you, baby?

Raga

Freed the one star when I prayed,
And helped to find my way,
And handed me
A letter on that day.
Chance the fallen, so they say,
Once the wonder runs away,
We can never
Ever see our way.

Here’s some writing on a wall
I cannot make it all,
But it seems to say
We take the roundabout and find our way
So I listen and I pray,
Chance to put you on that day,
I’ll send a message,
And this is what it will say-

Chorus:

I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know,
Where I’m going, But I’ll get us there.

Steal the thunder from the rain,
Relocate the pain,
Change the moment,
It can never stay the same.
Send your soul out on a string,
It won’t mean a thing.
We close our eyes and wonder why
We can’t see a thing.

Here we are, so we say,
We chase the moon to play,
But it hangs suspended
In the air, anyway.
So we dance on the way,
Unafraid to say,
We are here and know we fear
Nothing, anyway.

Seize the moment, steal away,
Bring us to this day.
We can find our peace of mind,
And take the time to say
Free the one star when you pray,
Lead us to this day
And somehow
We will find our way.

Chorus:

I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know,
Where I’m going, But I’ll get us there.

Mowing Albert’s Lawn

I’ve been mowing Albert’s lawn,
Just so’s I could peek through the blinds.

I’ve been mowing Albert’s lawn,
Just so’s I could peek through the blinds.

Just a lick, maybe some tone,
I’ll take anything I can find.

Bridge:

Well, I never been to Memphis,
But I sure do miss the King.
I got all of Albert’s records,
And I never learned a thing.

But it’s alright, it’s alright,
I’ll be mowing Albert’s lawn till the day I die.

I went around to the backyard,
Goin’ through his garbage can.

I went around to the backyard,
Goin’ through his garbage can.

And if you’ve ever loved Lucy,
I’m sure you can understand.

Bridge:

Well I tip my hat to Billy,
And I sure love Stevie Ray,
But I got to hear that live 3Blues Power2
Every single day.

But it’s alright, it’s alright,
I’ll be mowing Albert’s lawn till the day I die.

The Old Grey Mare

Playtime is over, the wild one is out in the yard.
Daytime is over, the nightmare still blackens stars.

Wade out on the water before you drown.
Everything’s changing without my permission.
Running around like a man with a mission.

Wade out on the water.
Sink or swim, because I’ve been around and I tell you.

Chorus:

The Old Grey Mare
Just ain’t what she used to be,
And oh those eyes, they hold no guarantees.
You can hold your breath,
Until the end of time.
Wasted words. Whatever. Never mind.

Oceans Away
