"Look The Other Way" lyrics
"Look The Other Way"
Mama I'm hurting, in the worst way
I got no money in my pocket no place to stay
And when I see you out in the streets
Never know what to say
Aw but it doesn't matter mama
If you always look the other way
Mama I'm searching every night and day oh
I'm looking for the means to pay
For all the wrongs that I've done
For the nights I've let you long awake
Aw but I'm always gonna owe you
If you always look the other way
I've been a fool I know
I'm trying to find a way to show you
That you're the only one that
The only one I'll ever want
So I'm learning, learning to be a better man
I'm not certain but I think I can now
Oh but if I fall short just know
I've done all I can do to change
But you're never gonna notice
If you always look the other way
Mama you're never gonna notice
If you always look the other way

Through the shadows...

In the Chili Parlor Bar
Drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas
And not carin' where you are
But here I sit in Dublin, mmm
Just rollin' cigarettes
Holdin' back and chokin'...

From California to the New York island
From the red wood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and Me

The Jayhawks - "Blue" Where have all my friends gone
They've all disappeared
Turned around maybe one day
You're all that was there
Stood by unbelievin'
Stood by on my own
Always thought I was someone
Turned out I was...
Jakob Dylan - "Will It Grow" I made a promise to not let go
Our tug of war has only made me want you more
Now steeped in hard luck and doomed to roam
My love is braver than you know
My forefathers they worked this land
And I was...
