"The West" 03:42
I'm innocent and on the lam I'm a dying breed A posse made of horse and man Has been chasing me "Alive or dead- cash reward," Says the wanted sign All evidence has been ignored Injustice is their crime Hey I don't know what the hell I've done Hey now I now how the West was won In a flash they've surrounded me On every side No escape and no retreat Still I won't abide

"Got it Bad" 03:55
Whisper a prayer softly in my ear Your breath us quick "Drink of this potion; all will be splendid" So we take a sip Hair brushes my skin; temperatures rising So the legend goes And then she said, "I've got it bad for you" Thwarted by a star maligned against us The feeling flows Bodies draw nearer, lips start to quiver We are in the throes Shudder, shiver– a tinge of blush And then I said, "Seems I've got it bad for you too" There's a mess in here Where I find my mind And it's caught between you And what is good for me Darling, I'll be damned But oh God, it feels so true Like Tristan and Isolde

Mama, take rest today Mama, you have no need to worry anymore Charon was paid his obolus Mama, take rest today Mama, take rest today I'm safely aboard the ferry
