Mexico 04:56
Sick and tired of this mean old city I'm going down to Mexico It's getting deep dark and I'm feeling greedy I'm going down to Mexico There's money to be made and girls are mean but pretty only one place you can go When the tables have turned and the crows have gathered you gotta go down to Mexico bridges have burned and dreams are shuttered you take the long way to Mexico Dirty money to be made and girls are dressed uncovered only one place you can go Standing on the border in my leather jacket cigarette burns and radio when they won't let you talk you gotta growl and bark it gotta take it down to Mexico There's money to be made and old dues to be paid only one place you can go

I wanna see you baby I wanna see you on your knees I wanna hear you honey I wanna hear you begging please Cause I'm going solo yes I'm going solo yes I'm going just for you

I lost my baby I’m going down low She’s gone to heaven cause I loved her so It was a cold black night I can’t remember well The sky was red and black The moon had gone to hell I lost my baby cause I loved her so I lost my money playing cards Blame the jack of diamonds blame the queen of hearts Well I lost it all And I’m going down Feel I hate this world And I hate this town I lost my baby cause I loved her so I’ve got a knife I’ve got a loaded gun Gonna find my baby gonna find her man When the bullets fly And my time is up Gonna pray to god She ain’t coming back I shot my baby cause I loved her so

Boys keep drinking all the gasoline girls are posing for the magazine the wheels keep turning and the engine's hot birds are flying but there's not a lot Cats are scratching when the dogs are gone little sister's hanging on telephone strip joints opening for the night to come I say we start rolling gotta get me some We're coming through Papa keeps smiling for the photograph mama says "son I want your autograph" daughter keeps twitching in her bed at night might as well join her make her see the light We're coming through
5.
I'm gonna hurt you when I go I'm gonna leave you all alone you're gonna watch me while I'm going down We had a thing but now it's done you left your promises undone I gotta call it, I can hear the sound Blues calling I thought you loved me but you don't I thought we had some secret bond now it's time I pack my things and go And when you come down on your knees and you start begging "baby please" ain't gonna buy it, I can hear the sound Blues calling Blues calling Blues calling I hear the blues calling on me

Fall down like rain get up and walk there is no shame when you talk the talk I have no soul, I have no name I ain't your man ain't your man I play the blues I don't know why I heal your wounds break down and cry I lost my faith but I got a plan I ain't your man ain't your man No church bells ring no angels sing no peace of mind no ties that bind I'm sick and tired of all your lyin' Cause I ain't your man Now it's time to pray and shut the door just stop and lay down on the floor if god is up and hell below I ain't your man ain't your man So do your best to hold those tears now it's too late to turn back the years I rest in peace under this land I ain't your man ain't your man No church bells ring no angels sing no peace of mind no ties that bind I'm sick and tired of all your lyin' Cause I ain't your man
7.
It keeps on raining everywhere I go It keeps on raining everywhere I go there's a big black cloud that keeps following my poor soul And it's chasing all the birds away and it's asking all those questions I don't know Well I left my home and I'm heading down the road left my home and I'm heading down the road there's a river flood and I'm carrying overload And it's chasing all the birds away and it's asking all those questions I don't know They got those big black eyes and they're staring at my heart they got those big black eyes and are staring at my heart but I keep my heart down under and that's tearing them apart And they're chasing all the birds away and they're asking all those questions I don't know

700 Lives 04:06
Baby baby won't you throw me the line feels like I'm drowning in this sorrow of mine but don't you worry cause I'm feeling all right I got seven hundred lives Baby baby you got me all tied up feels like I'm dreaming and I cannot wake up but don't you worry cause I'm feeling just fine I got seven hundred lives All this time that I've been missing you someone else was busy kissing you I talk about you when there's no one around I'm like a king without a crown Baby baby I've told you before I'm not the man you used to know anymore I got a silver coin dollar and I'm taking what's mine I got seven hundred lives All this time that I've been missing you someone else was busy kissing you I talk about you when there's no one around I'm like a king without a crown

Black heart black soul cold ground they know I'm coming Scarred face hard case done bad and now I'm running All day all night no sleep no grace of heaven Gone mad so sad done wrong bearing my burden Bad place bad time slow fall all mine I'm ringing on the bell at the gates of hell but there ain't no place I can rest my bones Dark sky bye bye death's close I couldn't care less babe My time flatline gunfire it's written in stone babe Slowhand bad man lost soul the hounds is coming Cut deep blood slip gun sound but I'm still laughing Last call eight ball feeling better on alcohol I'm ringing on the bell at the gates of hell but there ain't no place I can rest my bones
