Bad Intentions (updated lyrics)

I threw her into high and let the engine run hot
A four barreled carburetor is what I've got
All horsepower and four on the floor
Hit the line screaming and leave me wanting for more
I got my pedal to the metal and I'm headin' on down the road

I pulled into Tulsa looking for the brighter sites
But the only lights I saw came from another ride
The cops came around and were lookin' for me
They couldn't catch a Charger doin' 1-0-3
So I said "hey now mama, gotta say goodbye."

Drop that hammer down and give it hell
I got just enough money to pay my bail
With a crazed look in my eyes
You can watch me wave goodbye
Cause bad intentions have got me on the rails

I pass a flat bed like it was standin' still
Caught a groove down low and you could feel that engine reel
The right rear tire is about to go
Still, the car is screamin' and ready for more
She's a bad lil' mama with a heart made out of steel

Drop that hammer down and give it hell
I got just enough money to pay my bail
With a crazed look in my eyes
You can watch me wave goodbye
Cause bad intentions have got me on the rails

Hey now babe, it's a long way from Tennessee
And my bad reputation has finally caught up with me
If I can make it to LA
The cops can wait another day
Red tail lights are all they'll ever see of me

Drop that hammer down and give it hell
I got just enough money to pay my bail
With a crazed look in my eyes
You can watch me wave goodbye
Cause bad intentions have got me on the rails

Cause bad intentions have got me on the rails

Cause bad intentions have got me by the tail

Bad Intentions

Duck

Put out my hand, near his beak.
I had corn and grains and things I thought he'd eat.
He was white and soft, and could flap and quack.
Put out my had to feed him, and pulled it back.

Been bit by a duck.
Been bit by a duck.
That crazy foul done bit me now.
I've been bit by a duck.

He had big webbed feet and big dark eyes.
Stick out your hand with food, for a big surprise.
Count your fingers and make sure they're all there.
Cause a hungry duck on the farm just don't care.

Been bit by a duck.
Been bit by a duck.
That crazy foul done bit me now.
I've been bit by a duck.

(Crazed duck solo)

I learned my lesson about that crazy bird.
Tastes better barbecued is what I've heard.

Been bit by a duck.
Been bit by a duck.
That crazy foul done bit me now.
I've been bit by a duck.

Been bit by a duck.
Been bit by a duck.
That crazy foul done bit me now.
I've been bit by a duck.

Been bit, ben bit, oww oww oww oww
quack, quack, quack.
Quackie, stop it...

Sad Songs

There ain't enough sad songs to go around,
To heal every broken heart that's fallen down.
No more playing blues songs,
Or crying over you songs.
There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

Where do you go when your world starts caving in?
And the words that you hear justify a means to an end.
Where do you go when it all starts to fade away?
And you can lose your soul in the music that you play.
There ain't enough sad songs to go around,
To heal every broken heart that's fallen down.
No more playing blues songs,
Or crying over you songs.
There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

There's songs about the street lights in the rain.
And every little step you take along the way.
You can feel the rhythm beating in your veins.
But the world just seems to never go  your way.
There ain't enough sad songs to go around,
To heal every broken heart that's fallen down.
No more playing blues songs,
Or crying over you songs.
There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

No more playing blues songs,
Or crying over you songs.
There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

There just ain't enough sad songs to go around.

Rock Song Instr. - unfinished demo

Reminded

I took the long way down a road I've never known
And late at night, the blinding rain has kept me cold
Over the years, I may have let my hair grow
But it's only a means to see into my soul

Foolishly sometimes, I've kept my eyes closed
And at times, I've not been able to see the middle of the road
The road I took goes through some bitter and jagged lines
All the twists and turns have kept me far behind

I've seen highways take off to the sky
Winding away, until they fade into the night
Tattooed and branded, to show where I've been
To keep a strong hold on the things I've did
They keep me reminded of who I am

Each day takes me to a place I've never turned
Each day is another chance to get burned
Your decisions are the keys to whereever you may roam
So use them wisely down which ever road you go

I've seen highways take off to the sky
Winding away, until they fade into the night
Tattooed and branded, to show where I've been
To keep a strong hold on the things I've did
They keep me reminded of who I am
