Rainy Season

Can you hear the rain coming?
Can you smell it on the wind?
Purple, gray and orange colors flashing
Everybody's goin' in
It's the rainy season
It's the rainy season
Let it rain, let it pour, let it dribble down my door
It's the rainy season
Feel the cold in the wind
Let's hunker down and begin
The pressure's building the bond's are stretchin'
We're all just tryin' to hold it in
It's the rainy season
It's the rainy season
Let it rain, let it pour, let it dribble down my door
It's the rainy season
Feel it pouring all around you
Let it wash yourself away
Let go of all your dirty wants and reasons
Walk clean into a new day
It's the rainy season
It's the rainy season
Let it rain, let it pour, let it dribble down my door
It's the rainy season

Whiskey Dreams

Pendleton lullabies
My loves lie waiting for me upstairs
I sit and wonder in the dark
Black velvet lining on the chairs
Shots are firing in my mind
Three fingers drummin' on the ledge
I close my eyes and feel myself drift towards the edge
Dreams, whiskey dreams
Folding me down to sleep
Dreams, whiskey dreams
Folding me down to sleep
Amber pastures, golden grains
Crinkled laughter, sodden pain
Faces surround me in the glow
Come crawling in out of the rain
Door swings in time after time
It's not you coming to see me
Another whiskey in my hand
Nothing's as bad as it could be
Dreams, whiskey dreams
Folding me down to sleep
Dreams, whiskey dreams
Holding me, down to sleep

Pet Lover

Got a pet lover sitting next to me
Got them crazy little creatures, with their crazy little feet
Scurry scurry down the hall, dancin' to the beat
Furry little faces singing songs for me
Ooo-oo-ooo life's a zoo
Living with these creatures you drag around with you
Ooo-oo-ooo Life's a mess,
Nothing's ever easy with a bitch I guess
Got a pet lover, coming in my door
Don't know why I bother to shut it anymore
Oooo pet lover, always under my feet
Furry little faces making music for me
Ooo-oo-ooo Life's a zoo
Living with these creatures you drag around with you
Ooo-oo-ooo Life's a mess,
Oh nothing's ever easy with a bitch I guess
Late at night when I want you to come in
For some itty bitty loving from my pretty little friend
I go up to pet you, you just walk away
But when I cannot stand you, you just won't go
Ooo-oo-ooo Life's a zoo
Living with these creatures you drag around with you
Ooo-oo-ooo Life's a mess,
Nothing's ever easy with a bitch I guess

Easy

I should be able to know what's right
Secret voices and flashes of light
I should be able to take care of myself
Just as good as I take care of everybody else
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
As it used to be
I should be able to write my story
Up in flames with flashes of glory
Still I know it would all be the same
We're all stuck as pieces in a losing game
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
As it used to be
Complainin' ain't gonna change a thing
Singin' sadness ain't no way to sing
I'm gonna turn around and sing a new song
And it won't take me long
Gonna go to the beach today
I'm gonna stare at the sky and run from the waves
I'm gonna take a deep breath of the air
And remember just why I'm here
Take it easy
Take it easy
Take it easy
Like it used to be

Road Song 2

Been out here for a while
Not sure if I'll be goin' back
I've met some good folks and I don't want to leave them
I fade my pictures to black
Sometimes you don't know your way
You let it go you let it be
This world is full and rich, the colors flow deeply
It's a big place to not see
And I'll be wandering here a while
Until the road leads to a home
My roots are shallow and my ship is tied loosely
I wander wander I roam
Waves of beasts roaming by
The holy spirit in a stone
I see the streets lined with all of the hopeful
I see them all from the road
And I'll be wandering here a while
Until the road leads to a home
My roots are shallow and my ship is tied loosely
I wander wander I roam
And I'll be wandering here a while
Until the road leads to a home
My roots are shallow and my ship is tied loosely
I wander wander I roam
