Trouble
Trouble knocking on my door / Trouble knocking on my door
Keeps me heavy / Trouble keeps me low / Trouble on my door
When you come a rolling down my road / All the dogs will bark
and all the whistles go / O you pretty thing with that big smile
In a fancy car that I don’t recognize
Trouble knocking on my door / Trouble knocking on my door
Keeps me heavy / Trouble keeps me low / Trouble on my door
O the many bad mistakes I’ve made / The hands I should have held
and I should have played / And how I should have kept you like a blade
But I kept you like a bird now have you sang?
Sunshines easy on my mind / Sunshines easy on my mind
Keeps me willing / Keeps me fine / Sunshine on my mind
O patient love / Comes in beauty / She takes so long
O my wild mind / The bottom of a raging sea is fine
Trouble knocking on my door / Trouble knocking on my door
Keeps me heavy / Trouble keeps me low / Trouble on my door

Wild James
O no wild James / When you gonna change your no good ways?
Making crazy wine / you wont stop drinking / you wont stop lying
Lost all your money and your god damn mind
Mamma started crying when the telephone rang
At this hour it only means one thing
Daddy says he’ll accept the bill for a collect call
From the county jail / He’s not putting up bail
Like I said before you gotta change or don’t knock on my door
James / You say you’re on the street well your swinging a knife
I don’t want in between / O James
How you love the people that will fill your cup
You don't feel love when I say enough
You take my help you take my trust and you blame me
O James
Where’d you find a woman as bad as you
She gets tired she don’t get through
Don’t know what to do but get you out of jail / Get your name tattooed
Make a home for you
O no wild James / Are you happy? Are you in Pain?
I miss you when I hear your name / When you hear mine do you feel the same?
Do you burn with rage?

Learned From Right
When you were born / Daddy he was stuck out in a storm
Never made it back inside / Now you’ve gone out
To meet him with your storming mind
I will help you in any way you like / Taught you wrong baby
Have you learned from right?
Have you learned from right / Learned from right
Star crossed star eyed star written / Can you stop it will you try?
When you first left / Your eyes were wide in your little head
O your dreams were such a mess / Now you’ve gone ahead
And untangled them
I will help you in any way you like / Taught you wrong baby
Have you learned from right?
Have you learned from right / Learned from right
Star crossed star eyed star written / Can you stop it will you try?
Was there a past / Honest love that nothing could outlast
Everything feels paper thin / Every move feels like moving in
I will help you in any way you like / Taught you wrong baby
Have you learned from right?
Have you learned from right / Learned from right
Star crossed star eyed star written / Can you stop it will you try?

Copper & Steel
Copper steel aluminum paid for by the pound
Crushed into another life in another town
As the crow flies happiness aint far away / I walk these circles
Most of the night and the day
Do you know my name? Did you know my man?
Have you held a sweet thing and had it slip from your hand?
When I die I will go easy / For now I just do as I can
And this misery well it won’t always be / And I’m counting on that
I’m counting on that
Highway like a fur collar wrapped around the neck of my town
It gets hotter and hotter and the mink gets more tightly wound
I was your daughter in my 16th year / I had never known the blues
But thats what you wanted to hear
I sang in beauty and was praised by everyone
I sang it truthful like I knew what would come
When I’m done I will go easy / Right now I just do as I can
And this mysery well it wont always be / And I’m counting on that
I’m counting on that
And the scream of glass on glass
From the screaming of my name
Silver pearls diamond rings / To copper and steel what a shame
