Yo Ho Ho! 03:26
lyrics
buy track
Grandpa came by yesterday Said he had something to say Told me this and then he left alone 'You can never go home, You can never go home' You can visit all the haunts you knew Do the things you used to do Call on all the friends that you have known But you can never go home You can never go home But let's sing the songs we used to sing Let the old crowd wander in Give 'em all a devil of a show Yo Ho Ho! You can move the chairs, buy an old settee Line it up like it used to be Sit and watch old programmes that were shown But you can never go home You can never go home But let's sing the songs we used to sing Bass, guitar, and mandolin Give 'em all a devil of a show Yo Ho Ho! You can try to relive yesterday Even blow the clouds away Chase after the little birds who've flown But you can never go home You can never go home You can never go home You can never go home

Borrowed Time 05:03
lyrics

Borrowed Time I find I think a lot these days Getting lost in all the ways our stars seemed to align And all we have is borrowed time Borrowed Time He's knocking on your old front door But you don't live there anymore And when you knocked on mine All we had was borrowed time And there's a lot of bad luck out there And honey, you'll see your share In the long way round So, start the car And we can ride along today You know I can't go all the way We're only riding blind And driving on on borrowed time So, help me, sir I loved a girl in Manchester And all the world belonged to her And everything was mine But all we had was borrowed time And there's a lot of bad luck out there And honey, you'll see your share In the long way round Borrowed time The days when I could see her face The loving and the sweet embrace The roses and the wine But all we had was borrowed time And there's a lot of bad luck out there And honey you'll see your share In the long way round

This Disease 03:41
lyrics

You're all used up now, honey You're all out of lives You better go home You better sharpen your knives Better close the window Don't go out the door And no one's coming back for you no more It's nothing you said though, honey It's nothing you've done This disease is killing everyone See the old soldier with the sunken eyes They're just old war wounds from some old war lies Even the kids round here are strung out and tired There's nothing to show round here with nothing inside And it don't matter where you're starting from This disease is killing everyone You don't get chances No, you don't get none Up on the catwalk they're all fast asleep Beauty makes promises it just don't keep Big fool says push on where the grass has grown I'm at the border where I'm not well known But even if I stop or keep on goin' This thing'll get me It gets everyone There's no excuses and there's no reason This disease is killing everyone

Let The Bad Times Roll 04:46
lyrics

Speak of the devil then out of the blue I saw you today Well, I thought it was you It must be a year, might even be two Maybe more I tried to 'do better' but it's well understood You'll only take perfect You won't take the good The dogs, they are waiting They'll sniff out the blood A soldier in search of a war But it's too late tonight And I don't wanna fight Over battles of so long ago But if that's how you feel And you're sure that it's real Come on, let the bad times roll I tried to write prose but you said it must rhyme You play all of the low notes all at the same time And there's no room to freestyle We all have to stick to the score 'Cause it's shot straight to hell or it's heavenly bright It's light as the daytime or dark as the night And there's no shades of grey here It's all black or white A solder in search of a war But it's too late tonight And I don't wanna fight Over battles of so long ago But if that's how you feel And you're sure that it's real Come on, let the bad times roll

She's Getting Married Tomorrow 02:44
lyrics
buy track
The news is out all over town That she'll be in her wedding gown And lord, it pierced me like an arrow I heard it from Mary, and old Joe McSharry That she's getting married tomorrow I tried and tried to make her mine And now my eyes can't keep from cryin' And all I see is touched with sorrow The love that I carried is all dead and buried And she's getting married tomorrow I got down on my knees and prayed And tried to be more like she sayed She took that boy and made him hers And left this boy right where he was She put him on the straight and narrow And left this boy where he can no longer tarry And she's getting married tomorrow I'll turn away and I'll be blue When she smiles and says 'I do' I really wish her all the best Now she's out of the wilderness Another road I'll have to follow And give up my quarry and say I'm not worried And she's getting married tomorrow

I just wanna go out tonight Tomorrow I'll be twenty-one I just wanna go out tonight Looking for a little more fun I just wanna go out tonight And show 'em how it should be done I just wanna go out tonight So put me on the 6호선 (yuk ho son) I'm getting off at Itaewon But, oh mama, come and take me home Oh mama, I'm all on my own Oh mama, what did I do wrong I'm standing in this crowd I've never felt so alone I just wanna go out tonight So go and put your makeup on I got my costume, it'll be just right Let's go out while the night's still young I'm not looking for a hassle or a fight Don't wanna mess with anyone I just wanna go out tonight So put me on the 6호선 (yuk ho son) I'm getting off at Itaewon But, oh mama, come and take me home Oh mama, I'm all on my own Oh mama, what did I do wrong I'm standing in this crowd I've never felt so alone
