Grocery Store

I'd never go
To the grocery store
If I could buy
My whiskey online
I'd never drive
Or stand in any lines
The mailman'd bring it
Straight to my door
You can buy most anything
Lawn mowers and wedding rings
And you'll have em
In three business days
And if your lawn goes brown
And your women turns you down
Just return them
You won't have to pay
The future ain't here
Till they deliver beer
Im awful thirsty
But I can't drive anywhere.

My Baby Don't Love Me
04:11
|

She left one day without any sound
I didn't see it coming
My hearts in shambles Nothing left but debris
And my baby she don't love me
My baby she don't love me
My baby don't love me anymore
She said thank you for the good times I'm sorry but were through
I never should have got this tattoo
I should have just gotten you flowers
Like any normal guy would do
If I only guessed, if only I'd foreseen
My baby she don't love me
I should have put a ring on your finger
Like you been asking me to
I was planning on it eventually
But now my baby she don't love me
Got her name on my body I wont tell you where
I thought it would be a nice gesture
Telling the whole world I was her property
Now my baby she don't love me
I never should have got this tattoo
Oh Lord, if I only knew
It's an awful pain to
Get these damn things removed
I never should have got this tattoo

You always were such a good dog
Since that day you came to me
Up there at the pack station
Around 9,000 feet
The smallest of the litter
But that wasn't stopping you
Fearless as a wolf
And smarter than some people that I knew
You never caused me any trouble
Never chewed up my shoes
Always told me when you had to go outside
Only barked when you needed to
You knew you were always coming with
Across the country or to the grocery store
All road trips count
If you can put your head out the window
Now my faithful old pal
We've put some years behind
We're getting older every day
And now we're running out of time
I see that limp's getting worse
And your muzzle is going gray
Your hearing is shot
You'd rather sleep now than play
But you still follow me around
Even though it hurts to walk
I'll always take you with me
Don't mind helping you into the truck
I'll always love a dog named Jo
I hate to think our time is coming to an end
It won't be the same without you
Man has never known a better friend

*Chorus*
Don't let it get you down
The future is looking awful bleak
Even a dumpster fire
Provides a little bit of heat
Scientists say we'll soon be under water
Under that dark encroaching sea
May the waves stop at your house though
And have yourself some beachfront property
*Chorus*
A con man says windmills cause cancer
Where does wind come from anyway
Just muddying up the water
So they can't believe nothin' these days.
*Chorus*
Every morning when I put it on
I feel a little more of my self is gone
This old world has got me down
Please don't let me die with my work shirt on

The Canary

A little yellow bird lookin through my window
But I didn't hear nothin hed say
Well the sun still shines despite all we done
And the world don't need us here anyway
Well have you seen the canals in venice
They turned clear in just a few days
Someone even saw a few dolphins
The world don't need us here anyway
Well what was it like before we got here
Before we wore out our stay
How did we get so damn greedy
The world dont need us here anyway
Can't you see the worlds been on fire?
And its us that is causing it to decay
Maybe this is a final warning
The world dont need us here anyway
Forget all about the stock market
The dead dont need a 401K
We could all be gone tomorrow
the world dont need us here anyway

There aint no need to panic
Please stay in a single file line
Just stay calm and do what they say
And everything will be just fine
They say its for the best
But I'm not so sure
What this whole mess is for
Smile and wave you're on TV
And trust your corporate overlords
There aint no need to panic
But your country needs you
They said that god is on your side
Turns out he's on the other side too
One of thems a lying
But I don't know who
They'll gladley make your decisions for you
So smile and wave you're on TV
And trust your corporate overlords
There aint no need to panic
They don't give a damn about you
just smart enough to run the machines
Any old monkey'll do
They have no use
for independent thought
You're lucky they gave you what you got
So smile and wave you're on TV
And trust your corporate overlords
There aint no need to panic
Leave your money in the bank
Dont think about that sinking ship
That ship already done sank
Don't you worry, and don't you cry
Just sit back and enjoy the ride
So smile and wave you're on TV
And trust your corporate overlords
There aint no need to panic
They got everything under control
Make no mistake things'll go their way
They got the house and the senate paid for
They make all the rules
and they call all the shots
They've screwed you before and you done forgot
So smile and wave you're on TV
And trust your corporate overlords.
Smile and wave you're on TV
And trust your corporate overlords

Conspiracy Blues
04:15
|

***CHORUS***
---------------------------------------
I got the conspiracy blues
I got the conspiracy blues
No one believes me, beliving ain't easy
You'll be sorry when the aliens come.
---------------------------------------
They got you contimplatin'
About your education
They got you shakin in your bones
There's alien abductions, and moonlight obstructions
and the government is tapping your phone
***CHORUS***
They're poisoning the water
Making the temperature hotter
Causing all the earthquakes too
Black helicopters and Loch Ness monsters
Who am I to say it aint all true
***CHORUS***
You got your bigfoot sightings
Hes awful good at hiding
Till some guy saw him running through a field
All gangly and hairy, and frightfully scarey
No way it was some dude in a monkey suit
***CHORUS***
Sometime after dawn
When the aliens come around
Every night when you go to bed
They're comin through the window, hide under your pillow
And hope they don't mess with your head.
***CHORUS***
So whats a poor man to do
When the world is out to get you
Stockpile guns and ammunition
When the new world order, takes everything over
And validates my suspicions

A Gambling Man's Lament
03:59
|
|||
He had good luck and a little bit of money
But it run out a couple days ago
At some blackjack table in Reno
Where they cleaned him out of all his dough
It was a cold dark night in the desert
Under a haloed moon
He's got no place left to go back to
Can't afford no hotel room
So he's sleeping in the streets tonight
Cant tell her where all the money went
She was an awful patient woman
But every month he gambled away all the rent
Weren't too long 'for he took to drinkin'
To chase them blues away
Ever since his woman left him
He ain't never been the same
*BRIDGE*
She left feeling lonesome
Ten years ago
If he died in the morning
No one would know
A gamblin' man's lament
He died alone one morning
Figured no reason left to live
One foot was on the platform
But the other just stepped right off the bridge

Cowboy Dan, Cowboy Dan
He's coming down from Portland
With a latte in his hand
Oh oh Cowboy Dan
Cowboy Dan oh he's coming down
Coming down here to
Sing you his songs
Oh oh oh Cowboy Dan
Cowboy Dan he looks the part
the audience applauds
Before he even starts
Oh oh cowboy Dan
Cowboy Dan Cowboy Dan
Wears an old denim jacket,
worn out boots and a hat
Oh oh Cowboy Dan
Cowboy Dan, He bought em that way
At a boutique store in Nashville
He got em right off the display
Oh oh Cowboy Dan
Cowboy Dan dont own a gun
Never seen a horse
And avoids the sun
Oh oh oh Cowboy Dan
Cowboy Dan working on his drawl
He aint never been to Texas
But he can't wait to show y'all
Oh oh, Cowboy Dan
