QUIT IT
Quit it give it up, ring that bell
You climb the walls, you might as well
Like golden roses fallin' down
Ringing out all over town
Somewhere in the ballroom
Rain begins to fall
The dancers twisted on
Through the thunder and the walls
There is a hare out on the field
There is a fender over the wheel
A string of crows flyin' out the hare
Settles on the fender, will not go away
Backwards to the sunset on a horse without a brain
Met the moon one evening as I stood out in the rain
Quit it give it up, ring that bell
Quit it give it up, might as well
Dynamite lyin' 'round
Blowin' up, blowin' down
Peckin up, diving in
Rosie ribbon howls let's do it again
Feeling too for sideways
Flashing in the pan
Dove in through the window
Stumbled to a stand
Baby give it up, ring that bell
Give it up give it up, might as well
CONFUSION FOG
I lost my mind a couple of gals ago
I left behind, never saw it go
Just a little bit of snow out on the leaves
Confusion fog drifting swirling to my knees
Blue wind drift on
Blow through till the dust is gone
Gone, confusion fog
I drove too fast, hit the brakes too soon
I broke my wheels, blew my afternoon
There's just a little bit of snow out on the leaves
Confusion fog drifting swirling to my knees
Blue wind drift on
Blow through till the dust is gone
Gone, confusion fog
I took the time, they never saw it go
Left behind the only thing I know
Just a little bit of snow out on the leaves
Confusion fog drifting swirling to my knees
Blue wind drift on
Blow through till the dust is gone
Gone, confusion fog
THE WIND AND THE RAIN
Doesn't it blow so cold and lonely
Oh, and it's blowing your way
Thunder roars the clouds are reeling
A thousand shades of grey
And if falls you see it all
All that you see comes from nowhere
Can't be explained
No one can buy
The wind and the rain
Whisting wind the stars are shooting
Night is falling somewhere
Gimme a door, I feel like walking
Putting the wind in my hair
As it falls the thunder calls
Calls its own name
Can't be controlled, can't be contained
No one can buy
The wind and the rain
Throughout the years
Some things remain
No one can buy
The wind and the rain
THE MIGHTY ZERO
Four sides of curves
You call it round
It's saying nothing
Doesn't make a sound
Doesn't lift a finger
But it's working all the time
Got to know it well
Cause it's always on my mind
Hidden between the lines
The unsung hero
Taking the time to find
The mighty zero
It's just a number
You can count it on your hand
But I still don't seem to get it
There's nothing to understand
Woke up this morning
Pulled on my shoes
Nothing goin on
But I got no time to lose
Can't seem to see it
Don't seem to care
How you supposed to take it
There's nothing there
Nothing there at all
The invisible hero
But you can write it on the wall
The mighty zero
It's just a number
You can count it on your hand
But I still dont' seem to get it
There's nothing to understand
Nothing there to show
No big deal, no
How would you like to know
The mighty zero
GET ON DOWN
Way off down the road
There comes wagon red
Found himself a nickel
Went straight to his head
Get on down
I looked out my window
I saw medium Joe
Lighting both ends of his candle
Glowing from head to toe
Get on down
New car cherry tomato
Pulled off all the doors
Pulled off the steering wheel
Got the pedal taped to the floor
Get on down
LEAVES
One day as dusk was nearing
I saw something I thought was worth hearing
Something I knew all along
Now listen to my New Year's song
Who ever made up the calendar was wrong
It's New Year's all year long
Each year is a minute
Only full of the leaves in it
Now daddy said this to his son
I know for sure this can be done
Well cover up our tracks and then
Walk back the other way again
One day in a forest clearing
I saw different thing appearing
And now it's been around so long
Now listen to my New Year's song
I AM A MACHINE
I went outside, what did I see
I saw the sky, I saw some trees
I saw a girl, a beauty queen
I knew that I was a machine
There is a button that makes me go
She turned it on and let me know
That she could be my gasoline
She knew that I was a machine
The wildest thing she's ever seen
I am a machine
There is a motor behind my eyes
She kicks it hard, I start to fly
I fly around electrified
I dont' slow down till something fries
I'm telling you this ain't no dream
I am a machine
Now look at her, she quite a thing
She makes me feel just like a king
The finest lines you ever seen
You know my baby is a machine
I'll satisfy your crazy dreams
I am a machine
Build down low and mean
I am a machine
BEAUTY
I know a place where the visitor always stays
Beauty runs 'em down when they chance to cross that way
Out on that plain it's anybody's fault
Open up your heart in pours the salt
Throught the night I hear that strain
Beauty's on my trail again
Try to run but my legs are lame
Throught the night I hear the strain
Open up your heart in pours the trash
Opne up your mouth and the lightning starts to flash
Through the night I hear that strain
Beauty's on my trail again
Try to run by legs are lame
Through the night I feel the strain
A HUNDRED MILES
I've got a question, I got to know
I know right what I'm looking for
I got no hurry, I've got no fight
I know it's all in the hidden light
I can't see it with my eyes
But I can feel it
And it might just be a hundred miles away
I've got no business, I got no right
And I know that's not very nice
I can't see it with my eyes
But I can feel it
And Iit might just be a hundred miles away
LOVE OUR CHILDREN FOREVER
Some come away with an armload of hay
One sails to markey on her sea
Some like to say they'll do it yesterday
One starts his car without a key
Some come to play
And they blow it all away
Love our children forever
Some cut the trees and stack them in the sand
One looks up into the sky
Some do what they please
The world's at their command
Some come to nothing by and by
Some come to play and they blow it all away
Love our children forever
