Heading West
03:38

I've packed my suitcase and I'm heading west
Taking only what I need and I'm throwing away the rest
I've got my sights set on freedom in the great outdoors and beyond
And I don't need anything to tie me down
A young man from New England just lookin for some peace of mind
Heading out on the open road curious about what I might find
I've got my sights set on freedom in the great outdoors and beyond
And I don't need anything to tie me down
I left here with a pile of money and I spent it quite fast
There's a part of me that's infinite, but money ain't made to last
I've got my sights set on freedom in the great outdoors and beyond
And I don't need anything to tie me down
I don't need anything but I've got to keep on moving
and I'ver got these six strings to keep me grooving
I've got my sights set on freedom in the great outdoors and beyond
And I don't need anything to tie me down
I slept out on the rockies, and my car broke down on the plains
Spent ten months in the desert, it nearly drove me insane
I've got my sights set on freedom in the great outdoors and beyond
And I don't need anything to tie me down
And I don't need anything to tie me down

El Centro Blues
03:58
|

Jet planes are flying overhead
It's so hot I wish I was dead
I've got the El Centro Blues
Around here the way people drive
It's amazing that I'm still alive
I've got the El Centro Blues
Air so hot it hurts to talk
Ground so hot it hurts to walk
Down in Stark Field they find some shade
Take a rest, spend the night, and they've got it made
They've got the El Centro Blues
El Centro Azul
Cockroaches in the silverware drawer
Out of water gotta get some more
Cockroaches climbing up my wall
Keep a roach in my pocket to break my fall
I've got the El Centro Blues
Palm trees swaying in the breeze
It's the first of October still a hundred degrees
pastel sunsets pink and true
softens my El Centro Blues

Bandits on the Beltway
03:08

There's fire on the mountain
It's looking bad from where I stand
There's fire on the mountain
It's looking bad from where I stand
There's fire on the mountain
and all they got are guns in their hands
Something very strange
is happening on the hill
Something very strange
is happening on the hill
If I don't find out soon
I know in time I will
There's bandits on the beltway
and they're robbing us blind
There's bandits on the beltway
and oh good lord they're robbing us blind
If I dig a little deeper well
I'm afraid of what I might find

Movin' to the Country
04:35
|

Living in the city is like having a disease
It makes me sick, it makes me tired, it brings me to my knees
That's why I'm moving to the country
Moving to the country
Where I can find some peace of mind
Where I can find some peace of mind
I wanna live in a nice quiet place
Where I can be really far away from the rat race
That's why I'm moving to the country
Moving to the country
Where I can find some peace of mind
Where I can find some peace of mind
I wanna live in a nice small town
Where I know everybody that I see around
That's why I'm moving to the country
Moving to the country
Where I can find some peace of mind
Where I can find some peace of mind
I wanna be surrounded by the trees
In a nice quiet place where I can raise a family
That's why I'm moving to the country
Moving to the country
Where I can find some peace of mind
Where I can find some peace of mind
Where I can find some peace of mind
Where I can find a piece of land
And I can settle down and take my time

Up to No Good
06:18
|

|
This is not how it works
I don't go looking for trouble
It just finds me, It just finds me
and it usually lurks
among the weeds and the rubble
and it reminds me, and it reminds me
That being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
Take your dog for a walk
In your neighborhood
as long as you can keep him on a leash
Don't waste your time
Being prim and proper
Don't waste your time smoothing out every crease
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
You gotta get a little rough around the edges
You gotta be a little crass sometimes
You gotta use some unsavory language
When you just have to speak your mind
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
You gotta get a little high
If you've been feeling low
Sometimes you gotta sleep on the streets
If you've got no place to go
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad
Being up to no good, ain't all that bad
Being up to no good ain't so bad

Let Me Tell You

Let me tell you something
honest and sincere
We have been to hell and back
Haven't we my dear?
Let me tell you something
let me make it very clear
I am yours and yours alone
There should be nothing left to fear
Won't you come a little closer
So I can whisper in your ear
All the things that you want to know
and all the things that you need to hear?
Nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah
Let me tell you something
honest and sincere
We have been to hell and back
Haven't we my dear?
Let me tell you something
let me make it very clear
I am yours and yours alone
There should be nothing left to fear
We should be rejoicing
and overflowing with cheer
because we've found each other
and been together all these years
Nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah
Let me tell you something
honest and sincere
We have been to hell and back
Haven't we my dear?
Let me tell you something
let me make it very clear
I am yours and yours alone
There should be nothing left to fear
Won't you come a little closer
So I can whisper in your ear
All the things that you want to know
and all the things that you need to hear?
Nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah nah

Time
04:53
|

When I was hungry, you shared your food
When I was thirsty, you shared your wine
When I was in a dark and lonely mood
You were a true friend of mine
But time hasn't been so kind
No time hasn't been so kind
It's taken some good friends of mine
When I was homeless you shared your abode
When I was curious you spoke your mind
You said life is such a heavy load
But behind it all, your eyes just shined
But time hasn't been so kind
No time hasn't been so kind
It's taken some good friends of mine
I'm mourning the loss of a time and a place
but friends come and go with a life on the road
I'll remember you when I see a familiar face
and when a good story is told
But time hasn't been so kind
No time hasn't been so kind
It's taken some good friends of mine

Going Home
03:30
|

|
10,000 days, and one lonely night
was long enough for me to go blind
and then regain my sight
I'm going home
So many lovers
that all broke my heart
but it wouldn't have mattered none
'cause I was broken right from the start
I'm going home
As it is within, so it is without
Don't you give in to self pity
Be wary of your self doubt
And I will never, ever give up the fight
I will just keep on reaching
reaching for the light
I'm going home
