Sugar in her hand
I said "your awesome gal".. she said "I know"
I said "I know you know" ...'n I Guess that make it so?
Gal got sugar in her hand... man surely BE... satisfied
But If wishes were horses... then beggars would ride
Sweet country gal ... high top a chestnut steed
Make n ol' heart feel like a... lost ball in high weed
She got sugar in her hand.. man surely BE.. so satisfied
But if wishes were horses... then beggars would ride.
Fine ol' car... Maroon Cadillac
Sweet dancin' Moses ..gotta... whole world.. out the back
Oooh!! I'd like a car like that... I'd surely BE.. so satisfied
But if wishes were horses ... then beggars would ride
Solo
Fine 2 story house... finest estate
Some poor mans burden.. but that man choose his fate
Gal had sugar in her hand.. smarter man HE... might've known
Don't git too close to get bit.. when you, give that dawg a bone!!

I wanna Sweet flower child.. earth wind n fire in her hair
Gonna find that hippy woman.. In this great big world somewhere
Gonna find me a hippy woman .. Ima search all cross the town
Gonna find me a hippy woman .. Ima search all cross the town
From when that rooster crow... til that big Ol sun go down
Don't want no fancy image ..Don't want no fashion fool
Just wanna Hippie Woman.. ..a flower child (or 2?)
Coz I love those Hippy Women.. they all feminine n fine
Aint nother type o'women.. be playin on my mind
I cant find no hippie woman .. I searched the world high and low
I cant find no hippie woman .. I searched the world high and low

Sittin on river side ...n big ol sun goin down
Gonna find me a Hippy woman ..then Ima leave this town

Nothin' to lose

Nothin to lose
Standing at a crossroads don’t know which way to go
Left heads to the city right for me’s dead long ago
Ahead don’t promise nothing
But I can’t go back I know
Standing at a crossroads Lookin for an answer on the breeze
Left heads to the city right heads out to soulless seas
Ahead don’t promise nothing
Maybe put my soul at ease
While standing at a crossroads watch time it slipped away
Today turned to tomorrow said what’s become of yesterday?
I stood and watched my future
I watched her slowly drift away
I’m standing at a cross roads with one path left to choose
Left lost in a city right won’t ever get the blues
Ahead don’t promise nothing
But what I got’s nothing to lose

Some other mans girl
Thinkin bout you baby.. such a sad old lonely night
Thoughts spinnin in my head.. like a lost satellite
That look deep in your eyes ..burns like fire so bright
If I could have anything.. in this world.... I'd have you in my arms tonight
Maybe there's no reason.. maybe there's no rhyme in this world
Maybe you just meant to be.. some other mans girl
You surely cant be feelin.. what I feel.. when I met your eyes
Maybe you just playing.. feedin' a poor boy.. little white lies
For so many lifes so cold.. down in my chair I thought a while
I known such depths of sadness.. from some pretty smile
I'm over all this thinkin.. not 1 more thought.. I swear it's true
'cause I can't never be.. more than a ..passing thought to you
It really don't matter.. if you come or if you go
I don't care to see .. where bout's in this great big world you go
So I'll leave you to yourself girl... n I"ll keep on rollin too...
It's just a crying shame.. to only ever love.. the thought of you

RATTLIN BONES
Don't call a preacher honey I swear I love my wicked ways
Don't call a preacher honey I swear I love my wicked ways
Lets keep a rollin honey..till we six feet in the grave
Move along sweet baby.. move me on further down that line
Move along sweet baby.. move me on further down that line
I got a gal like bootleg liquor.. n you can dismiss your wine
Lets have a ball sweet baby.. lets go ballin all night long
Lets have a ball sweet baby.. lets go ballin all night long
That lil cats just right like dat... gets down to gnawin on a bone
You know how to work it baby.. knows how to work that sexy thing
You know how to work it baby.. knows how to work that sexy thing
My gal shes right like dat.. she got me tight like static cling
I aint churching Sunday morning.. gonna stay right here in bed
I aint churching Sunday morning.. gonna stay right here in bed
And enjoy thyne wicked ways.. soon enough be graveyard dead
Coz a man don't need nobody.. tellin him leave that cat alone
Coz a man don't need nobody.. tellin him leave that cat alone
Pussy cat just keep on purring.. keep right on working down that bone
You got me tired n ragged honey.. I'm headin up over the hill
You got me tired n ragged honey.. I'm headin up over the hill
Perhaps I 'mend my wicked way.. but baby I don't believe I will
Deep on down the other side honey.. my sands of time is good as gone
Deep on down the other side honey.. my sands of time is good as gone
You make me feel so good.. you still rock my rattlin bones

Palm Tree 2
One Mornin sat bone weak n weary…All in life so dark n dreary
Restless thoughts deep inside of me.. whispered so few will ever see..
On wisps of wind fell misty rain…cool touched my skin.. man it eased my pain
Said to me “you feelin’ whole again?”.. said “so few will ever see…
Like you do tonight... By that Ol' Palm tree (x3)
That shackle you so want it gone, pick it up man quit this carry on
You, me, we, he, she, they, all are one.. A single verse since time begun
Clouds grew thick til stars no more.. I sodden sat chilled to my core..
I smiled coz I were he no more…And with this new found clarity…
I looked way out past the fronds… of that ol palm tree (x3)
n this is what I saw...
The clouds dispersed revealed night skies.. all those stars living for my eyes
Inside I sought some kind alibi.. seems dreary rain her sorrows real
She’s lost her love to stars who’s mass appeal
You can see and hope but you can’t hope to feel.. dreary rain she nourished me
Taught me insight …by an old palm tree (x3)
She showed me whats right.. ..by that ol' palm tree (x3)

A Lonesome Churchyard Bell
Dark riders rollin...A lonely crow high in the sky
Met a preacher walkin... man had cold dead tombstone eyes
He met my eyes... he test my will
And far off in the distance ..a lonely churchyard bell
I paid no mind... to some old preachers stare
Every man find himself.. in a graveyard somewhere
Seem life it can be heaven...seem life it can be hell
Far off in the distance ..a lonely churchyard bell
Dark riders kept on rollin... the rain it keep on pourin down
Smiled and kept a movin.. my feet firm on the ground
Dark riders rollin hard.. runnin souls back into hell
Far off in the distance.. a lonesome churchyard bell
Lonely crow took shelter.. high up in the trees
Sound of thunderin' hooves.. put my soul deep in dis-ease
Only that birds eye saw.. as that Ol preacher man fell
Far off in the distance ..a lonesome churchyard bell
