You make up your mind, you choose the chance you take
You ride to where the highway ends and the desert breaks
Out on to an open road you ride until the day
You learn to sleep at night with the price you pay
Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies
And in one last breath they built the roads they’d ride to their death
Driving on through the night, unable to break away
From the restless pull of the price you pay
We’re walking in the air
We’re floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles flight
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry?
Don’t blame this sleeping satellite
When I left they were sleeping, I hope you run into them soon
Don’t turn on the lights, you can read their address by the moon
And you won’t make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night
We weren’t lovers like that and besides, it would still be all right
We weren’t lovers like that and besides, it would still be all right
This is the wildest party that there ever could be
Oh, don’t turn on the light 'cause I don’t want to see
Mama told me not to come
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window
I’ll be home soon
I saw a rain dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon…
Well we danced by the light of the moon. The band kept on playing that tune.
You asked me to carry you home, we were alone.
And then I saw moonlight dance in your hair. Now I’ll never, never, never see it again.
No I’ll never, ever, ever have it again. It’s gone, just like the song that lives on.
And I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
Ooh now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet, oh
I got no reason to doubt you baby
It’s all a terrible mess
And I’ll run in the rain till I’m breathless
When I’m breathless I’ll run 'til I drop, hey!
And the thoughts of a fool’s kind of careless
I’m just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah
He’ll make this December, the one you’ll remember
The best and the merriest you ever did have
Everybody’s waitin’ for the man with the bag
Christmas is here again
We’re drinking our way through the holidays
Trimming trees and slurring our words
Grab a fifth of gin and join right in.
Christmas lights are awesome when your vision’s blurred.
When Santa shows up for the holidays
And you know he’s in on the gag.
He’s up on the roof full of 90 proof.
He’s always half in the bag.
I bust through the doors and all eyes on me
I knock the lights out of Santa and burn up his tree
She falls in love all over, and says she wants me
Santa is bad, but not badder than me
Baby did a bad bad thing
Baby did a bad bad thing
You ever love someone so much you thought your little heart was gonna break in two
I didn’t think so
They tell me I was born to lose
But I made a good good thing out of bad bad news
Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
There’ll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can’t bind your heart
And there’s no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I’m old enough to face the dawn
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
I’m a prisonerof the highway
driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah…
It’s a long dark road that I call my home
It a long dark road that I’m cursed to roam
These many nights I’ve been banished here
My companion is the stars
With a bed roll and a blanket
And just the the rocks to lay my bones
