Holy Man, now don't feel bad You spread your love across the land Nobody listens to holy man Your congregations gone to waste You feel that slap across your face Nobody listens to Holy Man   Now do ya Hallelujah You get that voodoo in your bones its going to move ya Fine, so fine, so fine   Do you believe in all you see in all you see The masquerades for you and me    Do you believe in those you please                         Your congregations gone to waste You feel that slap across your face Nobody listens to Holy Man

The joy she brings, she brings to me Our time alone sweet misery And who am I to disagree I just sit her in the dark until she brings that joy to me The joy she brings she brings to me The joy she brings she brings to me She steals from the poor man then she dances like a thief I just sit her in the dark until she brings that joy to me Now monkey do, now monkey see When the joy she brings, she brings to me And it doesn't matter much it seems When the joy she brings, she brings to me

Turn your insides out now baby That's what you should do Share your troubles with another maybe It could be good for you I know you're hurting deep inside The type that mother nature just won't hide So come on over warm yourself in side Let's see what we can do I've got some Lovin for you I've got some Lovin for you I've got some lovin, got some good old fashion lovin its true You're not expecting what I know my lovin's going to do I've found myself in a fine haze lately Since when I met you Anesthetize with a slow wind daily A special dance for two I want to ask you if you feel all right Then be that drum that keeps you up all night So come on on over warm yourself in side Lets get a message through

Forgive Me 03:12
Won't you forgive me, I know you will Won't you forgive me, I love you still Wash me down, like only you know how, just to forgive me Talk to me in any way that's kind and open up a little of that good moon shine The way you left it turns a good eye blind and i still see you in the faces of a passerby Won't you forgive me, I know you will Won't you forgive me, I love you still Won't you forgive me, I know you will Won't you forgive me, I love you still Wash me down, like only you know how, just to forgive me Talk to me and give me peace of mind, To turn your back is not a peace I find Because i'm here and when you do decide well i'll still keep you in the faces of a passer by Won't you forgive me, I know you will Won't you forgive me, i love you still

My Doctor told me, not to worry And that the stealing of hearts was just a story But you've got blood on your hands And I don't quite understand How I keep loving you The drugs they've got me on, just make me worse Too tired to sleep at night, I ask my nurse If she's has my heart in her hands Then I don't quite understand How I keep loving her Maybe they gave me another's heart Transplanted and beating regardless of The way that I feel Maybe the surgeon had drunk too much And didn't replace the important stuff And now it won't heal My doctor told me, that I was fine And that the pieces of me no longer mine That I'm insured with some plan But I still don't understand How I keep loving you

The Day I Go 03:36
The day I go, there will be a show And everyone that's ever heard my songs will know I always wore my dancing and always curled my hair And when the band began to play i was the fist one there Oh, the day I go, I want them all to know I fought the fight I thought was right - and now I'm going home Now I'm going home The day I go i'll face the open road For what it's worth one final verse I'll state my boast They may have been a better man to wear this heavy crown But should I meet that better man - I'll tear that bastard down Oh, the day I go, I want them all to know I fought the fight I thought was right - and now I'm going home Now I'm going home

The hours of your broken sleep Your bodies runied Your eyes don't blink Come on and prove me wrong if you don't think It was the money in your pocket made you do it Such time to waste on pretty lies Your aggravated guilt The catholic priest between your thighs Come on and prove me wrong if you don't think It was the money in your pocket made you do it It was the money in your pocket though you really tried to stop it That burns a hole so deep inside of you And though you really tried to hide it - it corrodes behind the eye lid And invests itself in all you ever knew You talk to me as if I'm cheap When all you make is paper and then question your receipts If you could pay someone to help you fit A little extra in your pockets then you'd do it It was the money in your pocket though you really tried to stop it That burns a hole so deep inside of you And though you really tried to hide it, it corrodes behind the eye lid And invests itself in all you ever knew And as you feel the wealth commit you To the darkest growth residual Each day is more expensively annewed Come on and prove me wrong if you don't think It was the money in your pocket made you do it

This thing I've found, I just can't put down I just can't put down this thing I've found And I've been waiting for so long for you to come around And I've been waiting so long to hear that sound
