I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
I'm runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin’down a dream
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

Ooh, you know I
I found the simple life ain't so simple
When I jumped out, on that road
I got no love, no love you'd call real
Ain't got nobody, waitin' at home
Runnin' with the Devil
(Hold on, hold on I'm runnin' ah yeah)
Runnin' with the Devil

Devil thought he had won the final round
Devil thought he could keep you 6 feet down
You could hear hell singing that victory song
But a funny thing happened, the devil thought wrong
The devil thought wrong, thought wrong
You came rising right out of that grave
My sin went running and my soul got saved
Son of God's always been a bit of a rebel
You brought life to me and death to the devil
Holy Ghost has got a hold on me
I was blind but now I can see
Freedom gone got me on another level
You brought life to me and death to the devil
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

I know it's wrong, the things I do
The way that I mistreated you
But I know, oh-oh, it's a sin
It's a sin
My baby watched me from the side
Then she hung her head and cried
But I know, oh-oh, it's a sin
It's a sin
My baby told me from the start
She said darling, you're breaking my heart
And I know, oh-oh, it's a sin
It's a sin
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

Only you know and I know
All the loving we've got to show
So don't refuse to believe it
By reading too many meanings

Been away, haven't seen you in a while
How've you been, have you changed your style?
And do you think that we've grown up differently?
Don't seem the same, seems you've lost your feel for me
So let's leave it alone, 'cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guy, there ain't no bad guy
There's only you and me and we just disagree
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

It might be twelve o'clock and it might be three
Time doesn't mean that much to me
Ain't felt this way since I don't know when
Might not feel this way again

Get in the groove and let the good times roll
We're gonna stay here till we soothe our soul
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

Old King Cole was a merry old soul
And a merry old soul was he
So he called for his pipe
And he called for his bowl
And he called for his fiddlers three
But the clock, tick-tock
On the mantelpiece
I want, and I feel, and I know
I touch her warmth
She is a lady, she's got time
Brush back your hair
And let me get to know your face
She is a lady, she is mine!
Oh, brush back your hair
And let me get to know your flesh
I've been waiting here for so long
And all this time has passed me by
It doesn't seem to matter now
You stand there with your fixed expression
Casting doubt on all I have to say
Why don't you touch me, touch me?
Why don't you touch me, touch me?
Touch me now, now, now, now, now!
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

Old man lying by the side of the road
With the lorries rolling by
Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load
And the buildings scrape the sky
Cold wind ripping down the alley at dawn
And the morning paper flies
Dead man lying by the side of the road
With the daylight in his eyes
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

When the wagons leave the city for the forest and further on
Painted wagon of the morning, dusty roads, well, they have gone
Sometimes traveling through the darkness made the summer coming home
Fallen faces by the wayside looked as if they might have known
Oh, the sun was in their eyes and the desert that dried
In the country town where the laughter sounds
Oh, the dancing and the singing, oh, the music when they played
Oh, the fires that they started, oh, the girl with no regret
Sometime they found it, sometime they kept it, often lost it on the way
Fought each other to possess it, sometimes died in sight of day
Oh, the sun was in their eyes and the desert that dried
In the country town where the laughter sounds
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

Up, down, anywhere but in the middle
Off the wagon, under the wheel again
All or nothing - never could do just a little
Never could leave it alone

I've had too much to drink tonight
And I know it's sad, but this is what I think about
And I wake up in the middle of the night
It's like I can feel time moving
How can a person know everything at eighteen
But nothin' at twenty-two?
And will you still want me when I'm nothin' new?
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a Valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

The older I get
The more I think
You only get a minute
Better live while you're in it
'Cause it's gone in a blink
And the older I get
The truer it is
It's the people you love
Not the money and stuff
That makes you rich
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

Until I'm six feet under
Baby, I don't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
'Til they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

I could have loved you, Girl, like a planet
I could have chained your heart to a star
But it really doesn't matter at all
No it really doesn't matter at all
Life's a gas
I could have built a house on the ocean
I could have placed our love in the sky
But it really doesn't matter at all
No it really doesn't matter at all
Life's a gas
I could have turned you into a priestess
I could have burned your fate in the sand
But it really doesn't matter at all
No it really doesn't matter at all, life's a gas
But it really doesn't matter at all
No it really doesn't matter at all
Life's a gas
I hope it's going to last
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /

Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
She said, "I dig you, baby, but I got to keep movin' on, keep movin' on"
Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again
Dodging lions and a-wasting time

I just can't fit
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
When we meet again
Introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world
Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes you do
You make love just like a woman, yes you do
Then you ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl.

Woah Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you said so
I'd have to pack my things and go
Now baby, listen baby, don't ya treat me this-a way
Cause I'll be back on my feet some day
Well, I guess if you say so
I'd have to pack my things and go
