Moanin

I shoot better in the morning
My hands are steady in the morning
I aim truer in the morning
I got you moanin in the morning
You’re going to feel it through the floor
You’re going to hear it through the door
When I give it in the morning
I got you moanin in the morning
When I’m coming straight for you
There ain’t nothing you can do
As I come over the mountains
So strong and so true
And down to the valley
That makes one out of two
I got you moanin in the morning
I got you moanin in the morning
Beds are rolling in the morning
Yeah, I got you moanin in the morning
When the time is alright
You won’t remember last night’s fight
When I give it in the morning
I got you moanin in the morning
Yes it’s true
And I’m going to give it you
As I come over the mountains
Where younger men cry
I get lost in the beauty
So I close my eyes
And go down to the valley
With the softest of fields
I pause at the gates
But I am helpless to yield

Give It To It

I’m a clean living, hardworking man
I do what I can
I live alone with a bottle or two
I drive a Ford Econoline van
Now the years have been hard on the hands
Misunderstood
I live alone with a voice or two
And Lord knows that they good
But right now
I’ve gotta do it
Right now
I’m gonna give it to it
Right now
Three o’clock gets farther away
But it makes my day
Think of you just lying in bed
A little lamb that’s gone astray
Now your daddy’s been hard on you
And your momma, too
They’ve got no idea what I’m going to do
This little flower has got to bloom
So right now
You gotta do it
Right now
You gotta give it to it
Right now

I’ll sleep in my car for another night
When I awake it will be alright, I know
That I’m letting my temper show
I’m so screwed like my dear old dad
I used to hate him now he makes me sad, I know
That I’m letting the bad parts go
And that I’m teaching them to grow
I’m sorry doesn’t mean anything
Unless I’m willing to change, but I’m set in my ways
I love you doesn’t mean anything
Unless I’m holding my heart and you’re holding a ring
Just let it be known that I know I’m wrong
Just cause I can say it doesn’t mean I’m strong, I know
That there is no low I can’t go
So if I can think it, then why can’t I change?
It looks familiar but it feels so strange, I know
That this life is about to explode
You’re going to see it all over the road
I’m sorry doesn’t mean anything
Unless I’m willing to change, but I’m set in my ways
I love you doesn’t mean anything
Unless I’m holding my heart and you’re holding a ring
I told you from the very start
That if you give me your heart I will break it apart
I won’t leave because it’s not my way
I’ll just let you down every single day
Try and see the boy behind the man
Running the controls like the Son of Sam
Running it in place as fast as he can
But time is running out for the one-man band
And I’m letting my illness show
And it’s forcing you to go
I’ll sleep in my car for another night
When I awake it will be alright, I know
That I’m letting the bad parts go
And that I’m teaching them to grow

Summer Of Dudes

(Lyrics by Jason Gillis)
Summer sun and a Sunday lady
I got it always now on my mind
Can I see you tomorrow, baby?
I’ll bring you gold in a diamond mine
Come on down now, I’ll be waiting
Jump in my river and drink my wine
Get in my car now, get in my moment
What I can give you is so hard to find
Shine on sugar
Be my summer lover
I’ll be yours till the harvest moonrise
I wanna remember that I won’t forget you
No, no – sweet summer lover of mine
Come on woman, make up your mind now
Life is sweet if you just let it be
Move on over and drop your dress down
Let’s take a walk on this summer breeze
Shine on sugar
Be my summer lover
I’ll be yours till the harvest moonrise
I wanna remember that I won’t forget you
No, no – sweet summer lover of mine
