MILE DOWN THE ROAD
Something's causing a flicker in my driver's side headlamp
Something's making an awful sound -- sounds like a broken Marshall amp
Something's in my transmission sounds like an electrocuted toad
And something's just a mile down the road
Chorus:
A mile down the road, oh, a mile down the road
It'll all be better just a mile down the road
Gonna pull this car right over gonna see my love unload
When I pull up to your porch just a mile down the road
Something's in my battery makes the truck feel like it's on acid
Something's cracked the windshield makes me feel like asking Fionn
Something's in my bloodstream and I think it rhymes with "frisky"
And something's just a mile down the road
Chorus:
A mile down the road, oh, a mile down the road
It'll all be better just a mile down the road
Gonna pull this car right over gonna see my love unload
When I pull up to your porch just a mile down the road
Something's between you and me as hard as a jersey wall
Something's in the way, my dear, I'm seeing double yellow lines and all
Something's in my rear-view mirror flashing red-and-blue flash lights
Looks like I might be spending the night in the county jail tonight
Chorus:
A mile down the road, oh, a mile down the road
It'll all be better just a mile down the road
Gonna pull this car right over gonna see my love unload
When I pull up to your porch just a mile down the road

MAY THE GOOD LAND
This life, it ain't no garden
Tended by the hired hands
It's a dirty knuckle dug by the roots, friend
It's a fall upon a feral loving land
Got possums blind that bite yr face off
Got snakes wiggle through your toes
Got kids running down to the river over yonder
Bare their innocence in a trail of hand-me down clothes
There's a worldly tree that grows in the forest
Untended by human hands
It rises in the rain in branches shaped like smiles
Brings the wisdom of the pain
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain be strong and wicked
May the waters see the old trees blessed
May the ground soak equally water and blood
So be it, good land behest

HEAVY DRINKING LADY
First time I met you I was drunk as a skunk
Second time I met you, you threw up in my trunk
We was made for one another (made for one another)
We was made for one another (made for one another)
Heavy drinking lady, meet your heavy drinking beau
Stopped in to buy just a bottle of rum,
Didn't even see when you pulled your gun
We was made for one another (made for one another)
We was made for one another (made for one another)
Heavy drinking lady, I'm your heavy drinking beau
The cops blockaded the parking lot
The clerk woulda called 'em off if the clerk weren't shot
We was made for one another (made for one another)
We was made for one another (made for one another)
Heavy drinking lady, I'm your heavy drinking beau
All barricaded in a liquor store
Some folks seek a fortune, but I couldn't want much more
We was made for one another (made for one another)
We was made for one another (made for one another)
Heavy drinking lady, I'm your heavy drinking beau
Pretty sure it was bout quarter of two
Too drunk to see when the cops put the bullets in you
We was made for one another (made for one another)
We was made for one another (made for one another)
Heavy drinking lady, I'm your heavy drinking beau
