Have you seen my little baby
seen her knocking at my door
tell me true it isn't funny
is she dancing on the floor ?
Have you seen the way she kissed me
I was knocked out of my socks
that was for we had a his'try
and she put me in a box
Have you seen my little Cojo
what you are I do not care
you don't have to work your mojo
work that magic anywhere
* Baby... She made her move
have you seen my little honey
Dude.. gimme thenews
cause I gave her all my money
Have you seen my little crazy
heard she's spending all my cash
oh I hope my upsy-daisy
isn't doing something rash
Now I'm looking for my sweetie
she run off I don't know where
saw her name writ in graffiti
left me hanging in midair
* Baby... She made her move
have you seen my little honey
Dude.. gimme thenews
cause she ran with all my money

Woke up this morning,
Razor blades (in) my head.
Blood shot eyes were cryin,
My poor feet filled with lead.
Crawled out of my warm warm bed.
Someone please, please shoot me
Or give me a (whiskey) drink instead.
Last time was the last time,
I'll never do that again.
My pockets are always empty,
Not a nickel left to spend.
And no rules (were) left to bend.
My eyes can't focus baby,
My head damn how it spins.
Friday night's for drinkin,
(But) my bar tab's outta sight.
Like always I started thinkin,
Tonight might be the night.
While the stars all shinin' bright.
But my heart can't focus baby,
I can't end this wicked blight.
You told me that you loved me,
But that didn't mean a thing.
(You) left my heart beat and bruised after,
bought you that big, big (fuckin') ring.
And I still feel that sharp sting.
But I'm gonna forget you baby,
(un)'Less you wanna come by for a drink.

Moneymaker Blues

I come back with shame
And guilt on my brain
But once in awhile
I need a dirty smile
‘Cause I don’t want to wreck my home
So I throw the little dog a bone
I come back with shame
And guilt on my brain
When times get tough
And life has shot me down
Roll all the windows up
And take a trip downtown
When times get tough
And I’m feelin’ rough ,
I come back with shame
And guilt on my brain
Moneymaker - Makin’ money on her back
Moneymaker - In the seat or in the sack
On the corner in the breeze
And she knows just what I need
What a dirty little treat
Yes, she sure knows how to please
When push comes to shove
It ain’t about love
Or a tender sweet kiss
in heavenly bliss
I can get those from my wife
But I crave the seedy side of life
I come back with shame
And guilt on my brain

Lost My Head in Battle
03:46

I kissed her then I missed her went off with someone else
I should've let it go I should've blamed myself
instead I picked a fight with someone that was, twice my size
I woke up in the gutter with blood in both my eyes
I went to see her mamma I argued with her pa
(I) threw rocks at her window her cousin called the law
they said why did you do it, could you please explain
but I said something stupid so they put me on a train
lost my head in battle, in battle lost my head
I'm lucky to get outta there when everything went red
my nerves got shot and rattled I saved my life instead
lost my head in battle I'm lucky I aint dead
I got to Licking County and there I registered
I was not a sex offender, I only wanted her
but she had changed her number and she had changed her name
and when I got back home again nothing was the same
lost my head in battle...
so let me tell you brother, don't do what I did
my only explanation is that I was just a kid
but now that I am older, I ought to better know
but every time they stop me I say I gotta go
lost my head in battle...

Blues for Betty

So you see, Betty
I turned a century, with no friends to see
They'd all passed away, Passed before me
It is my funeral and it just ain’t fair
I know no one but they... don't fuckin care.
They loaded the hearse and started to move
I don't like their moaning, sing me some blues
it was a cold day for one last final show
I could hear their voices, like icy grains of snow.
They stood forever next to my hole
and I thought soon, tears are gonna fall
But they talked about strangers I've never even seen
Why can't they realize this is all about me?
I waited for the light at the end of this cold road
I waited and waited this drill was getting old
I lay there and wondered what's an old corpse to do
I lay there and wondered In my best patent leather shoes
I lay there with no friends at this funeral of mine
They left without saying that I was so divine
And as they walked away under these old willow trees
I could swear I felt the cold rise with the afternoon breeze
So you see, Betty, why I cannot marry you
You see, Betty, I need a real young girl with real young friends too
Cause when that day comes, I don’t wanna be alone
Cause when that day comes, I don’t wanna be on my own
And then at my funeral There will have to be
A lot of friends around, and a sweet girl to cry over me
I turned a century, with no friends to see
All passed away, Passed before me

Monday morning, rain falling down
Rolling out of bed, looking all around
I want my coffee, nice and black
Lord knows, I really like it like that
I've got the rollover get out of bed blues
I need my java like a dog needs a bone
That's the secret, to a happy home
Don't serve me decafe or I'll make you pay
I need my expresso every single day
I've got the rollover get out of bed blues
Oh baby, why didn't you make me any coffee?
That's not the way to treat your daddy
Honey you need to keep me happy
So serve me that hot cup of steaming Joe
Put it in my hands, I'll never let go
Ah come on, give it to me now!
Don't you want to see your big man smile?
And nothing makes me happier than a cup of home brew
Ah yea baby! You better give me some now!
I've got the rollover get out of bed blues
If you don't want to see me cry
Do as I say, make me some coffee, every day
Honey you need to keep me happy
So serve me that hot cup of steaming Joe
Put it in my hands, I'll never let go
Ah come on, give it to me now!
I want my coffee, nice and black
Lord knows, I really like it like that
Ah yea baby! You better give me some now!

Middle of the night, sheets soaked with sweat
My woman is asleep, she don't know yet
But what's done in the dark must come to light
I know it's wrong, I just can't do what's right
She's a devil in disguise, promises paradise
I know I can't stop , but it's plain to see
She's sure gonna wreck my life
She's a devil in disguise, promises paradise
I know I can't stop , but it's plain to see
She's sure gonna wreck my life
I keep telling myself to look the other way
Just ignore the games that she plays
That woman ain't worth the trouble she brings
I know that I'm doomed when that siren starts to sing

I saw her dancing on top of the bar
my buddies all said she's gonna go far
she took the stage and started to sing
that's when I knew she could do anything
Lord lordy, doggone my soul
Deep Eddy was almost too deep for me
the Rooster got Dizzy as could be
Coyote Ugly was the last saloon
she rode it on a Horse by the light of the moon
Lord lordy, doggone my soul
Play rockabilly or just plain rock
play some country till the crow starts to cock
I'd follow that girl to the end of the earth
straight out of Austin and into the dirt
Lord, lordy,
I chased her around all through the night,
Lord, lordy,
I had to put up some kind of fight.
Lord lordy, doggone my soul
lord lordy, she's outta control
look at the meat shaking on dem bones!
ohh good lordy, listen to them moan
