Charlie Robison - Barlight

Tekst :

Well when I was young my momma
Read the nursery rhymes beside my bed
And though they sounded mighty fine
They made no sense to me
But now that I am all grown up
It seems my life had changed as such
So I went out and made me up a nursery
rhyme for me

Chorus:
It goes barlight, bar bright
First bar that I see tonight
Wish I may, wish I might
Find someone to hold me tight
Hey diddle diddle a man with a fiddle and
The girls sing along with the tunes
Just one more dance till you turn
Out the lights and you can
Shut down this saloon

You know I never understood
How a big ol gal could raise
No kids in a shoe and any ol jack
Goes jumpin a candle needs
To find somethin better to do
And a rub-a-dub-dub three men in a tub
Sure sounds kinda funny to me
So I made up a honky tonk
Nursery rhyme and it s the only
one I ll sing

Chorus

Just one more dance till you turn
Out the lights and you can
Shut down this saloon

    Souvenirs

    I could let you slip away,
    just wait for rainy days,
    But wouldn t that be failing us,
    letting go too soon,
    when everything I am still holds on to you, and

    these souvenirs...keep you here
    You re really somewhere down the road,...

    Dust in the wind

    Dust in the wind
    All we are is dust in the wind
    Dust in the wind
    All we are is dust in the wind

    I close my eyes
    Only for a moment, then the moment s gone
    All my dreams
    Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
    Dust in the wind
    All we are is dust in the wind

    It s...

    Desperate times

    Jack he went to high school in a little Texas town
    He finished up and spent the most of next year
    bummin roound
    He couldn t find a job to hold, so on a Friday night
    He figured he could see the world and buy...

    Coolin down

    Take all the time that you need to be certain
    Say nothing til you can say what you mean
    Don t stay with me, just to save me from hurting
    I may be young, but I m not green
    I m in no hurry for the show, to hear...

    Criminal

    Look at me
    I’m happy as can be
    About the air in my lungs
    And the stories I’ve spun
    About being satisfied
    Most of the time
    Listening to the wind and the rain
    Always wondering

    Why does everybody run away
