Trouble 03:59
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 03:52
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
