Somebody breathin’ down my neck
While I’m tryin’ to roll the bones
I don’t care I’ll just float a check
Cause I’m feelin’ my gamblin’ Jones
Here come seven, gimme eleven come again
Love to hideout where I am my own best friend
There’s crazy little Linda Lou
With the long and lanky legs
Nobody do it like Linda do
At these backwoods lone star dregs
Like I told you, head out FM 92
Roll in slowly, you’ll be safer if you do
If you don’t know what I’m talkin’ about
Let me ease your worried mind
It’s the place to go without a doubt
But it’s a little bit hard to find
Back in the timber, once you’re there
You’ll wanna stay
Get loose and limber anytime night or day
Just remember, ask for the Avalon hideaway

Old 61’s my number on the highway
I’m turning up the V’s on the airways
I’m tuned into some bad-ass transactions
It’s the only way to get my satisfaction
Yeah antenna head, yeah antenna head
Antenna waves be burnin’ up my radio
Mister Deejay say it’s the only way to go
Cranked up all the way my tube is turning read
Got a pocket full off cornbread just call it
Antenna head
Yeah antenna head
Yeah antenna head
Yeah yeah yeah antenna head
Yeah antenna head

Dear Tiffany,
You’ve mad me nauseous for the last time
Everything I’ve said to you….I will form a spike (to drive through my throat)
In order to stop my words
This time I’ll put them in the ground along with my memories and my feelings
I’ll burn it down and walk away
Let the fire warm my back
I wish you would say you hate me
It would make it so much easier
Burn it down and walk away…………….
Love Daniel

from the album Recycler
A hundred thousand dollars
wouldn’t touch the price I paid
of the hundred thousand moments
of the times I wish I’d stayed.
But even if I had all the time and money,
it’s still the same old news.
Nothin’ does you any good
when you got 2000 blues.
Ten thousand clouds
on a rainy rainy day
couldn’t wash away
all the dust and the haze.
But I tried and I tried
to search for all the clues,
why I can’t wash away
these 2000 blues.
If I had an airplane
with a co-pilot too,
I’d fly to a planet
that was closest to you.
I’d set the tracking system
with your safety fuse,
and set the countdown
for 2000 blues.

from the album One Foot in the Blues
Is it you again outside,
Just banging on the front door?
You say you had enough,
Now you’re coming’ back for more,
But that’s alright.
I said that that’s alright.
I may not want to admit it,
I’m just a fool for your stockings I believe.
Now I don’t mind when you send money
and bring your girlfriends with you,
But how could one be so thoughtless to try
and handle less than two?
But that’s alright.
I said that that’s alright, baby.
I may not want to admit it,
I’m just a fool for your stockings I believe.
Now I’m tellin’ everybody
It seems too good to be true:
Sweet things can always get sweeter.
I know mine did, how about you?
Yes, it’s alright.
I said, yes it is, that’s alright.
I may not want to admit it,
I’m just a fool for your stockings I believe.

from the album All Else Failed
Why,
for what do we strive that will bring,
bring us closer
No human deed will show us approved
For two thousand years we’ve chocked on our efforts
Only to lay down and die
Things change
And things stay the same
Through all these trials
I cannot compose myself
Till there is a time
That no heaviness
Fills my heart
I cannot compose myself
So in all this there must arise a plan
A strategy to subdue the schemes
For generation upon generation God retained a silence
That shattered the hears of men
And for a season, all else, all else failed
Because I’m different
There is no other name
Given among men whereby
They might be saved in all these years
When men crawled the earth
Choking on his tears
No composure nor completion reigned
No self-righteous cleansing
Leaning on the strength of self or another man
No human effort can bring holiness
Or even the strength to stand
There is no explanation for this reasoning
The only thing in life that is constant is Jesus.

from the album ZZ Top’s First Album
Well, I’m tryin’, yes I’m tryin just to get a line on you
Where you been?
But I’m havin’ trouble puttin’ a find on you
I’m wearin’ thin
Somebody else been shaking your tree.
Supposed to saving all that stuff for me.
You been hidin’, yes your’re hidin’, you been stayin’ out on me.
Sneakin’ ’round.
Me and you ain’t workin’ out just like we oughta be.
You’ve got me down.
Somebody else been shaking your tree.
Supposed to be saving all that stuff for me.
I’m tired of foolin’ around with you, and sittin’ here alone.
It’s on my mind.
I think it’s time for me to find a new tree of my own.
It’s plantin’ time.
Anything you wanna do is cool with me.
I don’t care who shakes your tree.

When you’re driving down the highway at night
And you’re feelin’ that wild turkey’s bite
Don’t give Johnny Walker a ride
Cause Jack Black is right by your side
You might get taken to the jailhouse and find
You’ve been arrested for driving while blind
Now just the other night with nothin’ to do
We broke a case of proof 102
And started itchin’ for that wonderful feel
Of rollin’ in an automobile
You could say we was out of our mind
And let me tell you we were flyin’ while blind
Then they had us up against the wall
Hey it’s only blood grain alcohol
And there ain’t no cause for alarm
We ain’t out to do nobody no harm
How could anyone be so unkind
To arrest a man for drivin’ while blind

from the album Parade Of Chaos
Marekd to be alone.
And my eyes are closed.
Drown and separate.
For sakes of discernment.
Walk with the broken pieces.
They do not say a word.
They speak not a word to the broken sea.
Not burnt by fire.
Or pulled by the flood.
They come to rest in crimson pools of blood.
Guided by the wind.
Not burnt by the fire.
Not pulled by the flood.
They come to rest (alone, alone).
But they. they go, so we ride.
But the candle burns alone.
It guides us safely home.
