"Lola" lyrics
"Lola"
Lookin' for my Lola
She's drinkin' rum and Coca Cola
Smokes big cigars
And she drives big cars around
Folks say she's gonna reach the top
But she says that's just her first stop
I know she ain't a good 'un
Whatcha bet she wouldn't
Lose much sleep if I should die today?
She says the love ain't cheap, but the pain is free
And I say, "But that sounds good to me!"
She's got hooks to make a fish think twice
But I ain't no fish
I'll pay any price
If I think at all, I think, "This feels nice!"
Lookin' for my Lola
What if I'd 'a told you
She don't even know she hurts me so?
She says, "I don't hate you, it ain't that big a deal
You know, you don't even figure in the way I feel"
But don't think she feels too much at all
I said, "Have a heart," she told me to my face
"What little heart I got is in the wrong place"
Lookin' for my Lola
She's a little rock 'n roller
Party down, paint the town again
She drinks too much, she keeps it hid
Everybody says she's a hell of a kid
But she ain't no kid when she's cuttin' me apart
That's okay, I told her from the start
"Don't stop 'fore you get my heart"
Lookin' for my Lola
I barely got to know ya
For all I know, there ain't a lot to know
Either I gave up or she let me go
How I got away I'll never know
My life should be better, and it's not
I know you think that she was pretty bad
I wouldn't know, she was all I had
Lookin' for my Lola
Ooh, my Lola
Come on, girl, where d'you get to?
Ooh, my
Yes, yes, yes
I don't care what y'all say
I miss her
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, don't tell me what's good for me
I know what's good for me
I still miss her

Joe Purdy - "Kristine" Well I left this mornin' early
Tryin' to beat the snow
Me and ol' dog Charlie
In the rain
And we drove through Oklahoma
It's a long long way to go
Wonderin' how we got this far
And why we came this...
The Be Good Tanyas - "Only In The Past" Run away to the seashore
It doesn't matter anymore
It doesn't matter anymore
Words dry up and fly away
With the passing of the days
Eventually you just let the stone fall
I dreamed that I saw you...
Rodney Crowell - "It Ain't Over Yet" It's like I'm sitting at a bus stop waiting for a train
Exactly how I got here is hard to explain
My heart's in the right place, what's left of it I guess
My heart ain't the problem, it's my mind...
Mary Gauthier - "Got Your Six" Six o'clock's always behind you
Six o'clock on the battlefield
Six o'clock is black as gun smoke
At six o'clock our deal is sealed
No need to talk, or testify
Just keep your story tucked inside
No...
