Oh, Amarillo 02:46
Hey, hey baby don’t you treat me right Darkness is only the absence of light How can I believe in a god above When he’s nowhere to be found when push comes to shove Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo The morning star is overhead Some days I think I’m better off dead When your past your prime they’ll throw you out All the men around here know what I’m talking about Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Going downtown gonna burn it down I found myself a brand new sound I can play this thing like a ringing bell I’m on my way to the gates of hell Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo Oh Amarillo

Daddy worked his days away In tall buildings, so far away The money came, and the money went Got burned up in the light of the morning Fancy cars and fancy shoes Blood-shot eyes and the mortgage overdue His heart gave out like they often do Burned out in the light of the morning Empty road and a lonely soul Bought and sold for silver and gold Heed this songs warning Beware the light of the morning Deep in my heart, I feel a pull Toward the darkness, the unfulfilled Whatever you get, better give it away Or else get burned up by the light in the morning Empty road and a lonely soul Bought and sold for silver and gold Heed this songs warning Beware the light of the morning

The Garden 02:58
I kicked you out of the Garden I had no choice my little darling Believe Me, Believe Me Believe Me, Believe Me There’s no returning, unending unfurling The dawning of day, and coming of Evening I kicked you out of the Garden It was for the best, my little darling Believe Me, Believe Me Believe Me, Believe Me I hear you crying, your well has run dry and The river will take you, Further than your eyes can see I kicked you out of the Garden I had no choice my little darling Believe Me, Believe Me Believe Me, Believe Me
