Well, I got a fire in me
Don’t come from up above
Yeah I got debts to pay
But not the ones you’re thinkin’ of
And all of that fame and fortune
Bought me a hell of a lot to lose
But you ain’t gonna hear my cryin’
‘Cause I got that Soulsucker Blues
Well, I met a man ‘bout town
Smile as white as death
eyes like rollin’ dice
and easy bargains on his breath
He said you don’t need that pain, child
But how ‘bout somethin’ you could really use?
Yeah you ain’t gonna want for nothin’
When you get that Soulsucker Blues
Now I got a crater in my chest
This hole ain’t gonna heal
And the sting of guitar strings
is ‘bout the only thing I feel
And if there were second chances
I don’t know which way I would choose
Yeah the thing about “down and out” is
I need this Soulsucker Blues

Well, I’m gonna scrawl my name
On the bare bones of the earth
I’m gonna dig my heels
Into the ground
‘Cause when that ferryman comes
For to tally up my worth
I won’t leave much to find
That can be found
Well, I’m gonna heft my spade
Up upon my wearied back
I’m gonna keep last rites
Tucked in my soul
‘Cause when my coals burn low
And my train’s run outta track
Won’t be no one else
To dig my hole
Well, I
Got no companion
‘Cept the wind
And the sea
And when I’m
Cold and empty
They’re the ones
Who’ll bury me
Well, I’m gonna cast my stones
O’er the waters of this land
And by and by,
I’ll see them far and long
And when the night come down
For to take me hand in hand
This will be my tale
My Vagrant Song
Yeah, this will be my tale

Goin’ down to the river
Gonna cleanse my soul
Goin’ down to the river
Gonna cleanse my soul
That current gonna take firm hold of me
That water gonna make me whole
Goin’ down to the river
I’m gonna cleanse my soul
Won’t heed temptation
I just walk on by
Won’t heed temptation
I just walk on by
Yeah the devil gonna lay his snare for me
But his power I will deny
Won’t heed temptation
Just walk on by
And when they try to throw a wall up
We gonna tear it down
Yeah they try to throw a wall up
We gonna tear it down
We gonna drive the hurt and heartache out
With a wild and righteous sound
And when they try to throw a wall up
We gonna tear it down

Pues voy a rayar mi nombre
En los huesos de la tierra
Clavare mis tacones
Entre el suelo
Porque cuando la calaca regrese
A medir mi valor
No habrá mucho por hallar
Dejado hallado
Pues voy a cargar mi pala
En mi espalda agotada
Voy a guardar mi ruego
Entre mi suela
Pues cuando mi llama llegue hasta abajo
Y a mí tren se le acabe guía
No va a ver nadie más
Quien cave mi oyó
Pues yo
No tengo amigo
Más que el viento
Y el mar
I cuando este
Frio y falta
Estos son
Los que me enterraran
¡Que me entierran!
Pues, voy a tirar estas piedras
Sobre las aguas de esta tierra
Y más tardar llegaran fuera de aquí
Porque cuando caiga la noche
Llega por mí y me toma con el
Este será mi cuento
Mi Canción del Vago

White Rider
04:23
|

I was three days’ ride from Tulsa
En route to Santa Fe
And there beneath the blazing sun
My horse began to sway
Was then I heard a thunderous sound
Come risin’ up behind
The hoofbeats of twelve horsemen
Their course locked on to mine
White Rider
White Rider
Ain’t fixin’ for to join your fated line
White Rider
White Rider
Don’t come to claim me ‘fore I had my time
Was four days’ ride from Tulsa
The Riders still in tow
They were dressed in white from toe to tip
Pale horses trod below
And last among their number
A chilling sight to see
The thirteenth horse lay empty
with a saddle meant for me
White Rider
White Rider
Ain’t fixin’ for to join your fated line
White Rider
White Rider
Don’t come to claim me ‘fore I had my time
Was five day’s ride from Tulsa
When I pitched into the sand
My legs gave out, my body lacked
the strength enough to stand
The Horsemen moved upon me then
Their leader to my side
Said “Son, I think the time has come
To saddle up and Ride.”
White Rider
White Rider
Well, day will come we all will join that line
White Rider
White Rider
They come to claim me now I had my time
Now I had my time

Heavy Hands
05:16

If I turn my eyes
From these cold blue skies
Won’t stay my worry
Won’t calm or quell
I can say my piece
I can barter my tale
Won’t ease my burden
But I might as well
There’s a Heavy Hand
Laid across this land
And it steers my journey
And it guides my pen
Press on, head high
‘Til the ink has run dry
‘Cause my story ain’t like
To wind home again
Well, I’ll beat my drum
‘Til my last day come
Or the mountain meets the sea
Yeah, the earth will shake
But the boughs she break
Won’t put no fear in me
‘Cause I see a land on high
So I pen my final line
Sky will shimmer and sun will shine
Where the water tastes like wine
Well, I’ve wandered ‘round
And there’s a code I found
Says a gentle manner
And a righteous way
This pair you’ll need
If you follow this creed
She’ll see you through
Until the judgement day
But there ain’t no law
Under tooth and claw
In the nest of vipers
Or the lion’s den
You can holler and wail
‘Til the echo goes stale
Ain’t way nor manner
Gonna save you then
But I’ll beat my drum
‘Til my last day come
Or the mountain meets the sea
Yeah, the earth will shake
But the boughs she break
Won’t put no fear in me
‘Cause I see a land on high
So I pen my final line
Well, stories end and I’m closin’ mine
Where the water tastes like wine
So when the waters still
And you feel that thrill
For the open trail
Has slipped away
When the words won’t flow
When your fingers run slow
And the song you carry
Goes dull and gray.
Well, there’s a place I seen
Where the soul burns clean
And the verse it’s singin’
Rings pure and true
So cry no more
You just open that door
These shores of plenty
Gonna welcome you
And I beat my drum
‘Til my last day come
Or the mountain meets the sea
Yeah, the earth will shake
But the boughs she break
Won’t put no fear in me
‘Cause I see a land on high
So I pen my final line
I’ve said my fill and I’m feelin’ fine
Where the water tastes like wine
