"Troubled Eyes" lyrics
"Troubled Eyes"
Trouble is you're going about it all wrong
If you wanna find love, you gotta know where to start
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
Now she might be pretty, she might have a nice smile
Might have money and she might be smart
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
Say you meet a little lover, you get all hot and bothered
You wanna take her home with you on a Friday night
Just take a moment before you really get going
Just to look that woman in her eyes
Out to lunch on a Tuesday, Sunday at church
Any day of the week out at the bar
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
Well, you gotta be careful when you come out at night
Beware of anything that you find in the dark
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
You can't be carrying on, can't be drinking too much
You gotta keep cool, yeah, you gotta stay sharp
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
Thinking back to the girl before last
Oh Lord, what was her name?
That long, long-legged blonde
That could come all undone blowing cheap cocaine
Ain't got nobody to blame but you, but yourself
Don't gotta make every little thing so hard
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
Well, I'm begging your pardon but I'm just getting started
And thinking maybe you ain't so bright
Oh, but I kinda like you, don't ask me why
Just listen up, I'll tell you one more time
Trouble is you're going about it all wrong
Wanna find love, you gotta know where to start
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart
Troubled eyes, troubled mind, troubled heart

John Moreland - "Gentle Violence" There's a gentle violence
Miles of silence
Separating
You and me
Crystal and covered
In the arms of a mother
I'm a child who cannot flutter myself free
Sons and daughters
Of rising waters
Hell is...
Hayes Carll - "Stay Here Awhile" Looking out my window
On this easy afternoon
Just daydreaming
And humming on a tune
Letting my mind
Go where it wants to go
I'm not in a hurry
No reason to worry
Nothing I gotta know
I spent so long...
Bill Callahan - "Drover" The real people went away
But I'll find a better word someday
Leaving only me and my dreams
My cattle
And a resonator
I drove all the beasts down
Right under your nose
The lumbering footloose power...
Chris Smither - "Time Stands Still" I've been blind, she's been kind
She knows at times I forget to see
Through a cold dark cloud
An imaginary shroud or a shadow settles over me
I once was smart, it was back at the start
I offered her...
The Felice Brothers - "Special Announcement" I'm saving up my money
To be president
I'm saving up my money
To be president
I can promise more berries

I can promise you this

I'll gather up...
