SONG of LAMENT All I want to sing are sad songs It’s just the way I feel inside
I do my best to keep on movin’
But without you in my life
I feel so empty, so alone Can’t get it right now you’re gone No place I go feels like home And there’s nothing to be done
All I want to hear are heart things
It’s all that matters much to me
The day to day stuff doesn’t get it
It’s not where you would be
I feel so lonely, so brokenhearted Not what I thought life would be How could I know it when I started
The pain of love could kill me
All I want to feel is your love
It’s my only hope right now
They say that Love is eternal
Help me find the way somehow
My precious one, my son, my man You meant so much in my life Can’t fill it up with all that I know Ah, ah, ah to have you by my side
by my side
JUMPIN' THE WARNERS
Oh Luke, it's the truth, part of us left with you
Away, gone away, so sad but oh so true
Such a lovely man, doing all he can
To get us ready for rock n' roll
Kept it sweet and mean with spirit so genuine
To Live Like Luke is all heart and soul
CHORUS
Jumpin' the Warners His Soul to fly
Jumpin' the Warners The heart of Luke's life
Jumpin' the Warners Make it sweet and sad
Jumpin' the Warners FUCK YEA !!!
Our Bro', where'd you go, we need you more today
I'm gone on wind and song, forever to play on play
When you think of me remember to keep it real
Keep on dancing your life away
Work it hard and long, what matters is to get it done
To Love Like Luke is the only way
CHORUS
Never to die an unlived life
Never to be afraid to fly
What will we do without your smile
Jumping it down on a pale ride
Ridin' it hard is his only style
How will we ever say goodbye
CHORUS
FUCK YEA !!! FUCK YEA !!!
THE BALLAD of PALE RIDER
He started out so young and strong
A mission on his mind
Worked his way up dusty trails
Doin’ hard time on the fire line
Came down here to RDD and rookied
In “09. All could tell he worked hard as hell to start a long pale ride.
Thinking on that rookie year, he had to pay his dues. When the man called out his name, there’s nothing left to lose. Lightning crash thru western skies, the horn blasts twice today. He’s going to some mountain high, the Alps or to AK CHORUS
Pale Rider, his spirit and his smile
Pale Rider, he’s now forever free
Floating down under a canopy of blue and white. Flying is his destiny.
“Jinete Palido” as he was known down south.
The words of awe and praise flow freely from their mouths.
They asked themselves what does he have that most can’t seem to find.
An iron will to get it done and leave the rest behind.
He rides so fast, his pulse beats slow, he hears White Lightning loud.
He drifts to places most don’t go with
Wild Turkeys proud.
A tree explodes, with a flash it wears a yellow Royal Crown.
From high above, a helpful shove, down through Black Velvet clouds,
CHORUS
He left that day on Mother Sherp, a fire to engage.
Lightning strike in Warners south, drift smoke across wet sage.
Glidin’ easy, droppin’ smooth, fell hard down to his knees.
Breathing deep the wildflowers and a lonely burning tree.
There he was, the JIC, with two rooks by his side. No greater place to meet his God and leave this world behind.
With him in the mystery is the love of his Bros. Gliding thru eternal skies to the next place that he goes
CHORUS
TAKE ME HOME
I hear the train whistle blow
And I know it's time to go
For the wolves draw heavy on my heels
The wind it beats at my door
No one will come here no more
No need to see what I've become
And I lost you in the summer
And I will never recover
My Love
I've never felt this kind of cold
Out on this godforsaken road
It seeps right down to my bones
The trail seems to have no end
And it's getting dark once again
And there is no direction for me to go
I just know I can't be here anymore
Because I lost you in the summer
And I will never recover
My Brother
Take me home
Take me home,
Won't you let me please go home
My Brother
My Beloved Brother
JUMPIN' SMOKE
Lately I've been driftin' when I'm all alone
Just want to call you on the telephone
Say come on over, I made way too much to eat
But I can't do that
and the tears roll down my cheeks
CHORUS
I've been cryin' cuz my heart's so broke
Finished off the whiskey and the fire is stoked
The midnight breeze blows such a cold, cold air
Out here on the front lines I know you'll be there
Jumpin' Smoke Jumpin' Smoke
They say it gets easier, so far I just can't tell
Since you left us buddy well it hurts like hell
Sometimes in the evening,
me and the boys will grab a beer
In the midst of the laughter feels just like you're still here
CHORUS
Jumpin' Smoke Jumpin' Smoke
