As I sit right here right under this tree I'ma tell you a story bout me I was a young lad not quite a man Met a lady named Ann Marie She had blonde curls and bright blue eyes With a smile that was built for lies She told em well really put me through hell Guess it really wasn't a surprise She met her demise Through my cold blooded eyes Well she crossed me once she done crossed me twice Said I wasn't gonna let it happen again I had to dig deep down where's it dark To create this plan of sin Mix a couple bottles and a couple of pills Then I waited til she fell asleep Went of to the hill and I dug a hole Now my plan is almost complete She'd meet her demise Through my cold blooded eyes She met her demise Through my cold blooded eyes Well I planted that bitch down six feet deep She laid there and would forever be Forever mine and she'd grow with time On the hill of Maple Creek Every now then I when she's on my mind I walk out to where I planted that seed And rest my bones on that cold ground Under the tree named Ann Marie Where she met her demise Through my cold blooded eyes She met her demise Through my cold blooded eyes

I found the blues down in that old bottle Found the blues down in that old song I found the blues down in that old bottle Lord when its gone, yeah when its gone I found the blues with my old lady Found the blues on that old highway side Found the blues with my old lady Lord when we died yeah when we died But now there's one thing i want to know Tell me when lord are these blues gonna go I found the blues in the south side of Texas Found them blues by that old river bank Found them blues in the south side of Texas And they threw me in the clank But now there's one thing i want to know Tell me when lord are these blues gonna go I found the blues when the sky it was cryin Found the blues when i had nowhere to lay my head I found the blues when the sky it was cryin And I'd rather be dead, rather be dead

Goin' Home 01:41
Rushin through the snow My hands are tremblin There's no more leaves a changin They've all just fallen from the trees The cold wind is blowin It chills me to the bone I'm sure I don't like livin here Just can't call it home I'm goin home See myself in Texas or maybe Tennessee All I know is these winters well boy they ain't for me So I'll hop of a freighter headin down the Mississippi to a place that"s warm and friendly and I'll get somethin good to eat I'm goin home If I ever make it there The first thing I'll do Is find me a western store and Some cowboy boots I'll call all my buddies And start to raise some hell Cause that's the kind of thing That we do so well I'm goin home Find myself day dreamin of whiskey and moonshine Days spent six shootin and walkin that line But I'm stuck in Minnesota man tryin to get out Don't you expect me to stick around

Well way back long long ago Something in his head had gone and broke Charlie's mamma paid him no mind And dad got put away when his boy was five So he left home at the age of twelve Out there hoppin frieght trains riding the rails He got passed a jug and chugged away And that's how he got the name rot gut Charlie Charlie grew up like any kid Just a sucker for a women or a fix And like any fool he fell in love With a woman on 94 where he hung his thumb Sweet little lady took him all the way She had beautiful brown hair and a place to stay She maid him a bed in the place she called home Where Charlie stayed while the whiskey soaked his bones Charlie and Jane were a perfect match On everything cept the swill and the cash It was now time for Charlie to choose Tween the love of his life and his beloved bottle of booze And Jane cried if I swore I'd love you forever Charlie baby could you ever get better He turned around with a tear in his eye Then thumbed it westbound down on 35 40 years later down the line Jane's all that's left in Charlies sour mash mind Sweet little lady gave him a ride Ain't nothing but faded photos behind his eyes in the alley where he now resides charlie lays down in that bottle to die

It's Fine 03:17
Well he grew up In a small town That laid next to the river He was a regular 9-5 guy Then one day I guess you could say that He lost his way He committed murder but didn’t know why I am the reaper that sleeps in your bed I am the voice that lurks in your head You can close your eyes But I’ll still get in I am the one that commits the sin I am the one that tells you its fine While she stood there With her sad frown Her spine began to quiver Her mind remembered a different time See one day I guess you could say that She lost her way She was a prostitute but didn’t know why I am the reaper that sleeps in your bed I am the voice that lurks in your head You can close your eyes But I’ll still get in I am the one that commits the sin I am the one that tells you its fine As he sat there With his head down His blood filled up with liquor Needle scars up and down his arms See one day I guess you could say that He lost his way He was a junkie but didn’t know why I am the reaper that sleeps in your bed I am the voice that lurks in your head You can close your eyes But I’ll still get in I am the one that commits the sin I am the one that tells you its fine

My Rose Moon 04:57
It has been a cold December Not like the ones i used to know So I'm sittin by the river so my family will not shiver But there ain't much work to be had here with all the snow And I hope things will be all right But the body counts been risin and hell I'm next in line And if things don't get better soon I'll be down in Mississippi with my rose moon The liquor only keeps ya warm until the bottle is gone The cold has now claimed my wife's life and soon will take my sons Now the fire is dead there's no more food and we cant buy any wood But I would trade my life to save my wife and only begotten son And I hope things will be alight But the body counts been rising and hell I'm next in line And if things don't get better soon I'll be down in Mississippi with my rose moon Now the sun will not shine Down here in Saint Paul It hasn't since September I would say And men like me probably die alone With a bottle in hand and eyes holding a liquor glaze And I hope things will be alright But the body counts been climbin and hell I'm next in line And if things don't get better soon I'll be down in Mississippi with my rose moon

Half the Man 03:07
If I could ever figure out all the riddles of the wind Or how come when she falls out of love you seem to fall right in So tell me now wheres' a good old boy begin to begin When the walls tick and the clock is closing in Made it back to Saint Paul in about a day or two When they put on their Sundays best I grabbed my travelin shoes Now these days I sit and drink and sing them sad old tunes About makin it out alive and a lost boys blues So if you're ever feelin lonesome Remember that you're better off then me Cause I ain't nothing now no But half the man that I used to be Built ourselves a bonfire down by the sandstone bluffs I was flyin high for a little while but soon ran out of luck And it took three weeks of my bein gone for her to start feelin stuck So I was on my own again by one o'clock I went on down to the east side of town to get back on my feet Found a nice little place to stay off Maria and Mclean Met myself a new girl to love livin over on fifth street And when she closes her eyes she only dreams of me So if you're ever feelin lonesome Remember that you're better off then me Cause I ain't nothing now no But half the man that I used to be Now these days I like to sit and smoke my cigarettes Drink that robot down till there ain't a drop left And I'm always shakin hands yeah its a good way to forget But it opens the door real early to all regrets So if you're ever feelin lonesome Remember that you're better off then me Cause I ain't nothing now no But half the man that I used to be
