Happy Woman Blues

"Happy Woman Blues"
Tryin' hard to be a happy woman.
But sometimes life just overcomes me,
Everyday I'm workin' just to pay my dues.
Lay down at night, my mind is so confused.
Goin' down south with the New York City blues,
Gotta hit the road before I blow a fuse,
I might buy me a Cadillac or a Chevrolet.
I don't care what model as long as it takes me away
[SOLO]
I've been hiding my heart in a trunk.
Can you come see me when my ship has sunk
You can give me lovin, that I can't refuse,
And love is the one thing that's sure to cure my blues.
Goin' down the road with a heavy heart,
Tryin' to find lightness in the dark,
Tryin' to live my life, tryin' to get satisfied.
My mind is in the city but my heart is in the countryside.
[SOLO]
Tryin' hard to be a happy woman.
But sometimes life just overcomes me,
Everyday I'm workin' just to pay my dues.
Lay down at night, my mind is so confused.
Lay down at night, my mind is so confused.

"All Aboard"
I like to travel on the train
And see the life passing by the window
Let the City at the rithem of a heartbeat
And the clouds slide slow over the sky
I like to stop in every town
And see who is goin' up and down
What kind of shoes
High-heels or boots
Or wich kind of book is in your hand
So if you're thinking of going somewhere else
I tell you to pick up the traían
With the rhythm of a heartbeat
Streched on your seat
Lookin' trough the window
How the season changes
Once on the Amtrak to Memphis
I meet somebody on the train
Was a well dressed fellow
With his note book and his pen
When he asked me for my ticket
I could just escape
We ran til the last empty wagon
And put his hands under my dress
I closed my eyes eyes in Lousiana
And I was back in Texas
When I opened them again.
So if you're thinking of going somewhere else
I tell you to pick up the traían
With the rhythm of a heartbeat
Streched on your seat
Lookin' trough the window
How the season changes

"Wild Women Don´t Get The Blues"
I hear these women raving 'bout their monkey men
About their trifling1 husbands and their no good friends
These poor women sit around all day and moan
Wondering why their wandering papa's don't come home
But wild women don't worry, wild women don't have no blues
Now when you've got a man, don't never be on the square
'Cause if you do he'll have a woman everywhere
I never was known to treat no one man right
I keep 'em working hard both day and night
'Cause wild women don't worry, wild women don't have their blues
I've got a disposition and a way of my own
When my man starts kicking I let him find another home
I get full of good liquor, walk the streets all night
Go home and put my man out if he don't act right
Wild women don't worry, wild women don't have their blues
You never get nothing by being an angel child
You better change your ways and get real wild
I wanna tell you something, I wouldn't tell you a lie
Wild women are the only kind that really get by
'Cause wild women don't worry, wild women don't have their blues

"Railroad Blues"
1,2, , 1,2,3
Livin' and lovin'
That's how most folks make their way
I always look forward to goin' home everyday
Well I'd give a hundred dollars if I could be in their shoes
Lord I'm so damn lonesome, I got them low down blues
Everybody's got someone, yet I'm all alone
I got no phone number, no one to call my own
And every night that lonesome whistle lets me know when a train goin' by
Some times when I hear it I wanna lay down and die
Yodal lay ee, yodal oh, yodal eh.
A whole lotta memories, and I bottle of beer
Along with a lost love, and a jug fulla tears
Oh I can hear that whistle whinin' when the hour is
Lord the Union Pacific makin' it's way across the Lone Star state
Well this is my story, I ain't a playin' around (nah, I sure ain't)
I got an old trailer, on the outskirts of town
It's just me and this here guitar and a bottle of booze
Slappin' out a rhythm and singin' the blues
Yodal lay ee, oh Railroad Blues

"House Of The Blues"
Mmm....Sometimes, brother
When you feel like a motherless child
Your piston seems to burn no steam
And you're running out of gas
There's a hole in your boot, cause you've been ramblin
Ever since you pawned your car
And it feels like years since the last time
You held a dollar in your hand
(Chorus)
And it feels like the heavens are falling over you
And there ain't a joint in town where your credit stills good
But if you have a heart that keeps on beating
We have a place for you
Come and join us in the house of the blues
(Guitar Lead)
And it's been three nights that you've been seen
Begging for a friend to pay you company
But the only one who hears you
Is that bottle of JD
There's a light that shines down the avenue
And the door is never closed for a guy like you
You can buy a dream for a buck or two
And you'll be the hero no matter what you do
(Chorus)
So if it feels like the heavens are falling over you
And there ain't a joint in town where your credit stills good
But if you have a heart that keeps on beating
We have a place for you
Come and join us in the house of the blues
But if you have a heart that keeps on beating
We have a place for you
Come and join us in the house of the blues
Come and join us in the house of the blues
Come and join us in the house of the blues

"Rollin' And Tumblin'"
Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I woke up this mornin', didn't know right from wrong
Well, I told my baby, before I left that town
Well, I told my baby, before I left that town
Well, don't you let nobody, tear my barrelhouse down
Well, ahh, mmm-hmmm, owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh
Aaa, mmm-hmmm, oww, oh oh oh owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh
Well, if the river was whiskey, and I was a divin' duck
Well, if the river was whiskey, and I was a divin' duck
Well, I would dive to the bottom, never would I come up
Well, I could a had a religion, this bad old thing instead
Well, I could a had a religion, this bad old thing instead
Well, all whiskey and women, would not let me pray

Are You Gonna Wait?

ARE YOU GONNA WAIT?
Things have changed, there´s so much to do
or are you gonna wait for the lord to change the world?
The same lord that let us kill eachother
and the one who let our children drown.
Give me your hand and let me feel your power
or are you gonna wait for someone else to do your job?
It´s time to stand up, go to figth for what is yours
we have time, we are togheter, and we are more.
STOP teliing us how we have to live,
STOP telling us when we have to cry,
STOP telling us what we have to eat,
STOP telling us how we have to die.
Imagine there´s no countries, imagine there´s no pain
no hunger, no liers, no one to steal our bread.
This world is full of cheaters, and you all know who you are
and i tell you one thing for sure, none of you will touch the sky.
and we don´t need no Jesus, no Budda, or Alá
what we need to change the world is to trust what we have inside
