"Sweet Honey Brown" lyrics
"Sweet Honey Brown"
The show is over
And the monkey is dead
Turn that music down
Put that cold rag on my head
Nothing for me to do
I'm played out in this town
I'm just sitting here waiting
For Sweet Honey Brown
Sweet Honey Brown
Show me your smile
Haven't seen your tracks
For a long long while
I'm thinking about quitting on you
Sweet Honey Brown
Well the roar of this living
Fills up my ears
We all think to ourselves
How did we get here
In this upside-down world
Where nothing is clear
I'm just sitting here waiting
For Sweet Honey Brown
Sweet Honey Brown
Show me your smile
Haven't tasted your kiss
For a long long while
I'm thinking about quitting on you
Sweet Honey Brown
Simply a one-eyed Jack
I think that's pretty clear
I always play to win
But I always end up here
There's no telling
If I will ever see you again
As long night turns to day, I'm still waiting
For Sweet Honey Brown
As long night turns to day, I'm still waiting
For Sweet Honey Brown
Sweet Honey Brown
Show me your smile
Kiss me on the lips
You haven't done that for a while
I'm thinking about quitting on, quitting on you
Sweet Honey Brown

Sweetest...
The Wallflowers - "Roots And Wings" You're such a heavy bird
You'd never get far on your own
You'll never have a use for your feathers
While you're hopping down the road
Yeah, you were born to walk the earth
Yeah, with your back...
John Hiatt - "The Tiki Bar Is Open" Thank God the tiki bar is open
Thank God the tiki torch still shines

Come on in and open up your mind

From any resemblance to reality...
Counting Crows - "Rain King" When I think of Heaven, deliver me in a black-winged bird
I think of flying down in your sea of pens and feathers
And all other instruments of faith and sex and God
In the belly of a black-winged...
Pete Townshend - "Face The Face" Face the face, got to face the face
Face the face, got to face the face
You must have heard the cautionary tales
The dangers hidden on the cul-de-sac trails
From wiser folk who have been through it...
