Blind Walker G

Way down in El Paso The home of cowboy tunes A honky-tonk fiesta Mariachis got the blues Guitars in the cantina The rhythm starts to groove Cowboy boots and cowgirls Mariachis got the blues A sombrero on a cowboy hat Banjos play and castanets Mariachis got the blues Mariachis got the blues Some folks never heard it Some folks never knew Sombreros and Stetsons Mariachis got the blues A sombrero on...

I never had money and I never had cash I never had diamonds and I never had gold The only treasure that I ever did own I gave it away when I sold my soul This is the testament of a poor girl With one foot in the grave and one in the can One last will for my funeral Don't cry for me Just sell my soul The other day I went to my priest And I asked him if he could pray for me He told me that it wouldn...

They had their beads on they had their booze There were tourists from Oklahoma and Baton Rouge They had a tour guide and some baby blues They went sightseeing voodoo We started our journey at Saint Louis Mama's grandpa he was a spooky dude And just as we reached Marie Laveau's tomb We heard somebody say voodoo The tourist group was led astray By a man who went by Rufus Ray But I couldn't quite hea...

Track from the album "Vodoo Rendezvous", a meeting with the legends of New Orleans and the Bayou.

Well I was hangin' on for dear life And I was lookin' for some help from above I found a voodoo priestess by the river She gave me a little gris-gris Oh I once was lost but now I'm found Oh it happened just in time Yeah the clouds they opened and the angels sang The day that gris-gris saved my life I saw a flash of lightning and a black cat And I knew something good was gonna come And now the lady...

Drill a hole in the Arctic and make some cash Burn a hole in the ozone and fill your stash Fill the rivers with oil A barrel a day Let the people with money take it away Well I'm not for sale And my life's not for lease My soul is mine Not for hire At least But if you've got the cash and you can cover the cost You can have all three and all that you've lost I hear it's a seller's market these days...

Track from the ToneBoneMachine album "Rain In Death Valley".

The sun cracked the earth It left its mark A land of dust A world so stark The air hangs heavy It burns the sky A place where rain forgets to cry But whispers crawl through the canyon deep A storm’s faint echo begins to creep The sky It trembles The ground takes note A single drop The desert’s throat Rain in Death Valley It’s a fleeting ghost A fragile blessing where life seems lost It falls like...

Track from the ToneBoneMachine album "Rain In Death Valley".

Wings once stretched to touch the sky A shadow cast so broad and high The symbol strong a nation's pride But every rise meets time's cruel tide Feathers bright like golden flame A predator with a mighty name Through valleys deep and mountains steep The eagle soared where dreams could leap Oh eagle bold oh eagle free What happened to your majesty From heights you fell a story told Of power lost and...

On a night in Tijuana In a bar with no name With some good-time mariachi And some boys with no shame With the moon on the ocean And a tequila glow Like two dirty dogs On the run from the snow Yeah we stayed up late Till the first light of dawn We were shootin' Cuervo And sangin' our song There's an old border lady Who sees into the soul She just nodded and grinned When she seen my ol' pole And the...

If I knew then what I know now I would've left the circus sooner Is it Sunset Strip or Comic Strip You decide It doesn't take a crystal ball To see the place is going under And I could walk away but I think I'll Stay and watch They are everywhere All these circus clowns Hiding in the bleachers Smiling upside down Riding roller coasters Waving up at me Look at them down there What a tragedy The onl...

The river's gone Dried up and moved on Beneath the sun With nothing left to run Was once so wide And deep down inside Was swept away By time and decay And you Too Were swept away like a river The land is dry Not a cloud in the sky Nothing left to give And no place left to live Nowhere to hide And nowhere to lie On this hard ground It's all barren now And you Too Were swept away like a river Track...

Track from the album "Devil In The Detail" Back to my roots, Alt Country and Indie Americana with influences from Tom Waits to Mazzy Star.

Holliday was born in Georgia in eighteen fifty-one His parents called him Johnny but he was better known As a sharp shootin' gambler Doc Holliday A whiskey-drinkin' Woman-lovin' man Doc Holliday was a bad man One of the baddest in the land Runnin' with the Earp brothers If you see him You better run for cover Doc Holliday was a bad man He was raised up by his mama to be a southern gentleman But a...
