Simply Belong To You

Love becomes more than it is
Honey & salt
Oh, sparks & fizz
Love is helium, not the balloon
We've become more than
We thought we'd be
Ain't it crazy baby, just you and me
Drunk on the perfume of these blooms
The very thing that lifts the wing
And makes the meadow cling to the dew
Gifts to bring, songs to sing
Side by side until death do
In a world so opposed to
Simply belonging
I simply belong to you
The very thing that makes a ring
Need a knuckle to slide onto
The very thing that lifts the wing
Side by side until death do
In a world so opposed to
Simply belonging
I simply belong to you
In a world so opposed to
Simply belonging
I simply belong to you
I simply belong to you
I simply belong to you

Pink Turns To Blue

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Going out each day to score
She was no whore but for me
Celebrating every day
The way she thought it should be
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
She was always by my side and never tried to leave
Standing up for me and like a tree for what she believed
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
Turned to blue
Turned to blue
Turned to blue
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
There's no more rope and too much dope
She's lying on the bed
Angels pacing, gently placing
Roses 'round her head
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
I don't know what to do now pink has turned to blue
Turned to blue
Turned to blue
Turned to blue
Turned to blue
Turned to blue
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

All the best things (all the best things)
All the best things (all the best things)
Yeah, yeah all the best things (all the best things)
They're there for you
You can have a full agenda and never compromise
You can be a fake pretender and never know why
You can incorporate a thoughtful strategy
But that will never be enough to make you see
All the best things (all the best things)
All the best things (all the best things)
Yeah, yeah all the best things (all the best things)
Are there for you
It's always best to be grateful
And seek humility (uh huh)
That's why people spend a lifetime
Just trying to be like
Teachers (shut yo mouth) learn by example
But please don't preach
Because we are all the same
When we weep
For the best things (for the best things)
Yeah for the best things (for the best things)
Yeah, yeah for the best things (for the best things)
Are there for you
All the best things (all the best things)
All the best things (all the best things)
Yeah, yeah all the best things (all the best things)
Are there for you
The best things aren't always the things we want
Sometimes the best things are
What we don't
See or feel then they disappear
We didn't even think they were real
Now in the worst way they haunt
Haunt (haunt)
They Haunt (ooh they haunt)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Best things are right in front of you (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Best things are right in front of you
Best things are right in front of you
Best things are right in front of you
Best things are right in front of you
Best things are right in front of you

Transit Damage
04:25
|

|
I take it you shut your gate
Don't have nothing to do with anyone anymore
You put aside your worldly affairs
To arouse only yourself forevermore
It's not worth so much hassle
To follow the lines that they define
Oh it's not worth the aggravation
To always see deception in their design
Well, the book that you wrote it sounded familiar
From the start, dim and dull
You betrayed your cultivation with a mind too tempted
Tangled and full
You mistook the moment as meaningless
Abject failure for a lull
Instant enlightenment can look like genius
It's always cheap and plentiful
So don't go around feeling inferior
Thinking you're less of a man
People's wisdom is meager
And they're always eager to tell you they don't give a damn
For all you knew you had nothing to prove
Just a move and a groove and a new feeling
Oh, experience teaches the heart and
It preaches from the start of a mind that's
Grown uneasy
Your soul is slow from the things you know
But these people all just think your sleazy
If you don't still your thoughts
You will always be confused
So far ahead falling behind
Torn and faded, rare and used
If you could simply laugh and leave
Then I'd say hey baby, just walk away
Walk away
See it in your rearview mirror
And never think about what if you'd have stayed
So don't go around feeling inferior
Thinking you're less of a man
People's wisdom is meager
And they're always eager to tell you they don't give a damn
They say
La, la, la, la, la, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la
We don't give a damn
They say
La, la, la, la, la, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la
We don't give a damn
They say
La, la, la, la, la, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la
We don't give a damn

Reconsider It
03:55
|

|
Every change is a form of liberation
Liberty is a kind of alteration
Emancipation is a shift
It's new path off the cliff
Bird in the hand
Hand in glove (hand in the glove)
Two in the bush
Push comes to shove (push comes to shove)
I'm not trying to take anything away from you
But I wish you would just
Reconsider it
Reconsider it
Oh, reconsider it oh
Reconsider it (reconsider it)
Reconsider me
Ooh change is the great decider
Nothing changes without the wire
Redemption is a gift
A new kind of uplift
Trouble is in the mind of the beholder (mind of the beholder)
And every day I can feel it getting colder (it's getting colder)
If this is your war baby
I don't wanna be your soldier
Oh, I wish you would just
Reconsider it
Reconsider it
Uh huh, reconsider it oh
Hey now, reconsider it (reconsider it)
Reconsider me
But I wish you would just
Reconsider it
Reconsider it
Uh, reconsider it oh
Come on reconsider it (reconsider it)
Reconsider me
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah

Alphabeta let ya letter hang down
Let your C see the jewel in her crown
If a B don't buzz ya know
It's because there ain't no butter for her bowl
Alphabeta let a letter hang low
Let ya F get together with a K
Let your H hang out with J
Let your Z zig zag some more
But don't your D hit ya G in the door
Alphabeta let a letter get away
I'm not talking about rain in Spain
High score on a scrabble game
I'm talking bout the alphabet
Curly Q's on the line
Writing letters to a friend of mine
Alphabeta you better you bet
Uh, come on
If a W comes in with U don't ask why
Tell'em you can't spell alimony without an I
LMNOP Sippin' that Texas T
Alphabeta you better put on a sweater for me

Little Drops of Summer

These little drops of summer soon to fade away
The evening's coming early and the shortening of the day
Autumn is calling for Halloween parades
Turkey's getting nervous about the elves and the sleigh
Hurricanes are dying
Oceans growing cold
The sun is changing places
The leaves are glowing gold
The shadows they seem different to the tears in my eyes
The lifeguards have gone home to the whistles in their minds
The cotton and the corn (cotton and the corn)
Are ready to be torn (are ready to be torn)
From the fields of September (fields of September)
From the arms of the farms (arms of the farms)
Hurricanes are dying (dying)
Oceans growing cold (oceans growing cold)
The sun is changing places (sun is changing places)
The leaves are glowing gold (leaves are gold)
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Sha, la, la, la, la
These little drops of summer
Are waving as they fade (little drops of summer)
The popsicle sticks have all been thrown away (little drops of summer)
These little drops of summer soon to fade away (soon fade away)
Little drops of summer they all fade away (summer fade away)

If Love Is Earned
04:13
|
|||
|
I would sell my car just to buy you some water
I would resist temptation even from the devil's daughter
I would go without sleep and never ever think about it
I'd live my whole life with you and never even doubt it
I would suffer misery if I thought you didn't know
How I feel about you, it's growing more and more
I'd do anything in this god awful world
Just to make you love me would you be my girl
I carry it all day and never complain
Just to get to your loving baby I ain't ashamed
If that makes me a fool girl oh I can't complain
If love is earned I'm working everyday (everyday)
Got me workin'
I'm a lazy man and I don't like to work
But when I see you girl I tuck in my shirt
I would wash all the windows
I'd rake all the leaves
I'd mow every yard just to make you see
I'd wash all the dishes, I'd learn to fly
I'd run for office, Id even wear a tie
I got such a feeling about you
I never wrote a love song
But look what ya done
I carry it all day and never complain
Just to get to your loving baby I ain't ashamed
If that makes me a fool girl oh what can I say
If love is earned I'm working everyday (everyday)
I carry it all day and never complain
Just to get to your loving baby I ain't ashamed
If that makes me a fool girl oh what can I say
If love is earned I'm working everyday (everyday)
You got me workin' (you got me workin')
You got me workin'

Kind
03:34

Lend a hand before you start pointing fingers
Don't thumb your nose before you open your arms
Chastise not those who have lost, but never cheated
Stretch out your hands before the stretchers are needed
Relax your mind
I am your kind
We all are kin somewhere down the line
Read what they wrote
Before you go looking for a goat
Don't waste your needle and thread on scarlet Letters
False sanctimony slices just like bologna
And if you would, sir please slice it right down the middle
Relax your mind
I am your kind
We both like the sound of a fiddle
Let the fiddle play all night long
Tip the player to keep playing that song
The one about tulips, bullets and moons
The one that my mama would just as soon
Prefer her Daddy to croon
Relax your mind
I am your kind
We all are kin somewhere down the line
Relax your mind
I am your kind
We all are kin somewhere down the line
We all are kin, I am your kind
We all are kin somewhere down the line
We all are kin somewhere down the line

J.T.
by Steve Earle & The Dukes
supported by 9 fans who also own “Transit Damage”
The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'. Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was.
