Pearl River
Pearl river, pearl river
If you could talk
What would you say
Pearl River, pearl river
If you could talk
What would you say
Would you tell how many strange fruit
Your dark waters wash away
Pearl river, pearl river
In your water
Dark secrets linger still
Pearl river, pearl river
In you, what dark secrets
Linger still
I’m gonna render you for refuge
I’m gonna have your witness killed
Water moccasins glide
Hungry alligators hide
Deep inside your waters
Many shrimp and crab wait
Of the dreadful fate
Of the ones thrown to you
After the slaughter
Pearl river, pearl river
Will your dark secrets
Ever be revealed
Pearl river, pearl river
Will your dark secrets
Ever be revealed
I wanna know now
Stay locked in the minds of man
Forever to be concealed
Yeah concealed
Big Mouth
It's been rough here before
But this time I'm moving out
It's been rough here before
But this time I'm moving out
Well I've had enough of you
And more than enough of your big mouth
Now I've got a headache
From listening to you whine
I've got a headache
From listening to you whine
Well if you'd just shut your big mouth
I believe that I'd be fine
So whats it gonna take
For you to let me out that door
So whats it gonna take baby
For you to let me out that door
Well I can't hear a word you say darling
Cause your big mouth is in the way
It's been rough here before
But this time I'm moving out
It's been rough here before
But this time I'm moving out
Well I've had enough of you
And more than enough of your big mouth yeah
Your big mouth, big mouth
Change My Ways
Say you look at me
Like I put the hurt on you
You just shake your head
You can’t believe all these lies are true
All the ghosts of the past
They are still haunting you
Now youre asking me why
Why I wanna break your heart
Why are you asking me why
Why would I break your heart
And I don’t know why you’re asking me
Cause you knew the answer from the start
You see I gotta change
Change my ways
That’s what you want from me
Change my ways
That’s what you want from me
How can I change
Something that I just don’t see
How can I change my ways
Now give me one more chance
I got to prove my love
Girl I wanna be your man

I’m gonna shed this skin
I’m gonna rise above
You see, I’m gonna change
Change my ways
That’s what you want from me
Change my ways
That’s what you want from me
How can I change
Something that I just don’t see
How can I change my ways
Eyesight to the Blind
You talkin' about your woman,
I wish you could see mine
You talkin' about your woman,
I wish you could see mine
Every time she starts to lovin'
She bring eye sight to the bloom
You know her daddy got some money
I can tell by the way she walk
You know her daddy got some money
I can tell by the way she walk
Every time she start to shakin'
Deaf and dumb begin to talk
Well early one morning she was lyin' on the bed
Mel next door was dyin' and raised up his head
And said, "Ain't she pretty?
Uh don't you know she fine?"
One look at that woman
Bring eyesight to the blind
I declare she pretty
And the whole state know she fine
I declare she pretty
And the whole state know she fine
Every time she start lovin'
She bring eye sight to the blind
One Step At A Time
One step at a time
I wanted too much
And never worked hard enough
I was blaming God
For not being there
I thought I was the only one
And never got anything done
I was hiding in anger and fear
On that high and lonesome road
One step at a time
I trust this feeling of mine
To carry me home where I belong
I will lay my worries down
Down on that solid ground
Maybe one day I'll know
How to quiet down this crazy soul
One step at a time
I was living too hard
Breaking every one's heart
But loosing my friends
Again and again
Looking back
I wish I had known
I didn't have to walk alone
But I got lucky
Got a chance to make a mends
On that High and lonesome road
One step at a time.... 2X
39 Days
Been 39 days
Since you walked out on me
Been 39 days
Since you said goodbye

Since I lost the girl I love
You know all I do baby
All I do is cry
Been 39 days
Since you said you had enough
Been 39 days baby
Since you told me no more lies

Since I lost the girl I love
You know all I do baby

And I’m still under your spell
Been 39 days baby
Since you said I could go to hell
It’s been 39 days
Since I lost the girl I love
You know all I do baby
All I do baby
It’s been 39 days
Since I lost the woman I love
You know all I do baby
All I do is cry
Shoes Blues
Woke up this morning
Lord I couldn’t find my shoes
Woke up this morning
I couldn’t find my shoes
I could tell right away
I was gonna have a day full of blues
When to see my girl
Oh, she started talking back to me
Went to see my baby
Oh he started talking back to me
A day full of blues
Oh that’s what this is gonna be
Well I went to see my father
He said, son you have to pay your dues
Well I went to see my daddy
He said baby you got to pay your dues
He said everybody has a day full of blues
Well I woke up this morning baby
I couldn’t find my shoes
Well I woke up this morning baby
I couldn’t find my shoes
I could tell right away
I was gonna have a day full of blues
I got the blues
The Dead Of Night
It was late at night
When I saw her eyes
Out on the beach
Under the Moonlight
And when she spoke to me
I could not understand
All of the words
But I could feel her pain
She took me by the hand
And brought me to her place
Where people danced
In tight embrace
So we held each other close
And never said a word
But I believe I could
I could see right through her
Everyone around me smiled in fright
Dancing on the beach
With the dead of night
When she kissed my lips
I could taste her soul
She gave me a wink
Through her fishbowl
I got dizzy man
Weak at the knees
All the dancers waved
In a sleepy breeze
When I woke up
In the morning fog
The tide was low
My pillow was lost
Scratched in the crystal beach
The words read in the light
Come dance again
With the dead of night
Everyone around me
Smiled in fright
Dancing on the beach
With the dead of night
Dancing on the beach baby
With the dead of night
Sugar Sweet
I'm gonna tell you about my baby
I speak of her with pride
She go all the way to make me satisfied
Oh she's my baby, she's my baby, don't you see
I can't call her sugar 'cause sugar never was so sweet
She manicure my nails, scratch dandruff from my head
She's my baby, she's my baby, don't you see
I can't call her sugar 'cause sugar never was so sweet
When I say what I want, that's the way it's gonna be
She fall over backwards to go right on pleasin' me
Oh she's my baby, she's my baby, can't you see
I can't call her sugar 'cause sugar never was so sweet

All Last Night
All last night
I laid in my bedroom alone
All last night
I laid in my bedroom
My landlady, she tried to call me
I was too evil to answer the phone
Sometimes I wonder
Where can my baby be
Sometimes sometimes
I wonder, where can my baby be
I know one thing for sure
She sure ain’t here with me
C’mon Baby
C’mon on baby
One more time
With your love
For me
C’mon baby
One more time
With your love
For me
You know you hurt me baby
You hurt me deep inside
I always got a sweet spot for your love
Now you’re coming back
And you’re asking me to forgive
All the times
That you ran away
C’mon baby
One more time
With your love
For me
C’mon baby
One more time
With your love
For me
I never expected to see your face again
Now you’re here and looking fine
I wanna fall back baby
Back into that love
But I’m so scared
So scared inside
Come on baby
One more time
With your love
for me
C’mon baby
One more time
With your love
For me
No you got my eyes
But I’m holding on to my heart
I don’t know it
But I can let go
But the way your lips are moving girl
It’s turning me on fire
I don’t wanna
Don’t wanna lose it all
C’mon baby
One more time
With your love
For me
C’mon baby
One more time
With your love
For me
