Jim White piosenki

They tell me miracles abound now more than ever, but I don't care. They say it's better to be blessed than it is to be clever, but I don't care. 'Cause I got 10 miles to go on a 9 mile road, and it's a rocky rough road, but I don't care. For life's nothing if...

Way down south I know a girl who is blind. She walks alone along a lonely highway each day. She dreams that one day a man will pull up in a car. He'll open up the door, she'll climb in and he will say: "Hey babe, whatcha know? Hope you're ready to go, 'Cause t...

The days of our innocence and grace blow by. The smiles we wear upon our face blow by. Oh, the sweet wine of youth goes sour over time. Seems like the more that you lose, the more you ache to find... A town called Amen. Like a bright-eyed smile from some l...

Sunday I am young and wild, Monday I go lame. Tuesday I start twitching, Wednesday I'm insane. Thursday I lay dying, Friday I'm quite dead. Saturday I get carried away by things better left unsaid. But heaven ain't no place, brother, and love ain't no word sis...

I cannot be superman no more... I cannot walk upon the high wire in my mind. And now that I understand the extent of my mortal coil, Suddenly and somehow I have lost all my desire... To shine, to shine like the sun... To shine, to shine like the sun... On a su...

Sometimes you gotta take off your shoes, sit right down in the middle of the road, kick off the dust, and deal with the news that you are blind. These dreams are familiar. These are places we've been before. Somewhere in the wild blue yonder, lies the path wh...

Bluebird on a telephone line. How are you? I'm feeling fine. Sweetly do I whisper your name. Lonely solo taxi ride to a cheap motel on the wrong side of the tracks. The facts are tricky to explain. Cold front bearing down, blowing in from Birmingham. By dawn t...

Big ole car moving fast, Watch the world go spinning by Little wheels inside my brain, God I wonder where I'm going Where you going? Need a ride? We got time to see a movie It's all right, it's okay, I can tell you my big secret: Sho' is cool. Sho' is cool. I...

That night we drank wine from the crazy well. Shot a shotgun out the window of our automobile. We was young, we was wild and we sure had our fun. Until the sheriff caught up with us and we tried to run. Now we return to Earth on borrowed wings lifted from the...

Fools wind blowing up brown bible verses. Dust storm of memory. Truck stop reverie. 3 AM in my home town, not a soul stirring around. Mr. Trucker Man, don't slow down in this little town. 'Cause I'm traveling faster than the speed of regret. What I was born kn...

Door is locked, no one's home Frame is empty, picture's missing Throw that rock right through the window Hey, I know him, he's a singer Roam around, another town, looks like Phoenix, Arizona Borrow the car from it's owner That sleepy head, he's dreaming the dr...

Wonder if you know, what you see ain't what you get. Wonder have you learned a dirty word - did you forget? 'Cause there's talk on the street... say sugar taste sweet... but it'll tear you apart... when what's easy on the eyes... is hard on the heart... when y...

We drift along down rivers Past the times we were born Past broken smokestack factories Graveyards of lost loved ones We cast our dreams on waters dark We just watch them drift away We turn our eyes heavenward But feel no need to pray Chorus It’s that day upo...

Where in the world did you come from my dear? Did some mysterious voice tell you I'd still be here? I bought this ticket to Mobile, but I been stranded all day...p.a. said the bus broke down ten miles away from the station. So seldom a door...so seldom a key.....

I found a blue hair comb with a busted tooth gonna comb out my hair in this telephone booth gonna comb out love, gonna comb out hate gonna get me a new look and I can't wait. I took a lethal dosage of dope in my youth, bit the hook of Jesus - Oh! The terrible...

Sunlight in the weeds...I wish that I was blind...to the ghosts dancing in the breeze...blowing through my mind. Got a Corvair in my yard. It hasn't run in fifteen years. It's a home for the birds now. It's no longer a car. Last night I dreamed that I was swim...

How we get lost Going from here to there Counting numbers in the air Cheekbone to a cool stone wall See the fireflies in this mason jar Light my smile like a faded scar We used to wonder who we are These days we don't care How we get lost, how we get lost Go...

When too much beauty numbs the mind, when what you see ain't what you get, when digging deeper what you find, is skeletones best left behind... We go CRASH! into the sun. Ain't enough bullets in this here gun! We got cash! Now who's talking trash? Jumping up...

It's the twilight hour. As the sun goes down, I see a flatbed Ford with a scrapyard load rattle off through town. The railroad crossing lights flash on--- there ain't no train in sight. A crescent moon will soon ascend as day gives way to night. and I fe...

Out in the junkyard in the pines they're working over time hacking back them vines, that're eating up their their minds. Fruit of the vine... that old fruit of the vine... We're doing 30 in a 45--- disregarding highway signs. You learn to take your ti...
