Your Gold Dress (March 2024 Mix)

don’t know what I’m doing but I’m doing OK

don’t know how i got here you must have led me astray

don’t know why i'm living but
i sure am living it up

don’t know why i'm always
drinking from your loving cup


thanks to you i’m doing things i’ve never ever done before
thanks to you i'm traveling
on a worldwide tour
and i solemnly pledge:
ain't never gonna lose this war


thanks to you i’m doing things i’ve never ever done before
thanks to you i'm traveling
on a worldwide tour
and i solemnly pledge:
ain't never gonna lose this war


The devil in you always
wears an angel’s clothes

and when the danger seems to fade
is when i fear it most

the ones who come here bearing gifts
always rob me blind

and what i'm always looking for
is never what i find 


thanks to you i’m doing things
i’ve never ever done before
thanks to you i'm getting rich
after always being poor
and i solemnly pledge:
I ain't gonna lose this war

i solemnly pledge
i’m never gonna lose this war

never gonna lose this war
never gonna lose this war (never gonna lose)
never gonna lose this war (never gonna lose)
never gonna lose
this
war

This War

Woke up to the sunlight streaming in
words cannot describe the state I'm in
burst through the door and out into the light
the golden glow kisses everything in sight

all around me's vibrantly alive
my senses ringing bells, oh yes all five
the ecstatic joy of living i just cannot forget
beyond even song, there are no words to set

don't let the dark advancing years take hold
hold the warming day as night grows cold
if life becomes a prison, remember being free
never let go the hand
of the child you used to be

all around me's vibrantly alive
my senses ringing bells, oh yes all five
the ecstatic joy of living i just cannot forget
beyond even song, there are no words to set

don't let the dark advancing years take hold
hold the warming day as night grows cold
if life becomes a prison, remember being free
never let go the hand
of the child you used to be

of the child you used to be
keep holding on
to the child you used to be
keep holding on
keep holding on
keep holding on
never let go
never let go

The Child You Used to Be

From the badlands of Dakota
to the Outer Banks back east
we’re settin' here and starvin'
there was supposed to be a feast
never wanted to be a ranger
a maverick? not in the least

dirt mountain won’t you just give us some peace?
dirt mountain what’s the number of my beast?

from Ithaca to Trumansburg,
took the Black Diamond trail
and down in Big Bend Texas
ya know I spent some time in jail
now i ain’t no gladiator
never crossed no Rubicon

dirt mountain why must you lead me on?
dirt mountain where’s my First Edition?

Now posters are delightful
and rodeos they’re fine
but i need to climb dirt mountain
and nirvana will be mine!

now Moses went to Sinai
Ed Hillary climbed his step
Hans Mayer had Kilimanjaro
to solidify his rep
me, I’m heading out to Dearborn
i’m taking all my gear

dirt mountain this is my model year
dirt mountain you can’t make me live in fear
dirt mountain I’ll no longer stand in line
dirt mountain I have come to take what’s mine

Dirt Mountain
Oh Dirt Mountain
I ain't afraid of you

Oh Dirt Mountain
Oh Dirt Mountain
Oh Dirt Mountain

The Child You Used To Be (Alt 1)

The Child You Used To Be (Alt 2)

If I Fell

you know those lizards that flare their gills
these degenerate zombies get up in your grille
the red, the green, the white, the black
never seen an innocent they wouldn’t attack

we tried talkin, talkin don’t work
its useless to be fair when you’re dealing with jerks
let’s just be real, a fanatic doesn’t deal
you can’t compromise with those crazy, rabid eyes

train their spawn to stab and kill
the beheading thrill when the blood is spilled
they ejaculate when we detonate
their only trait, pathological hate

looks like we’ll have to shoot our way out
been watching these losers and there aint no doubt
the only way left is the way of the gun
ain’t no time for phasers on stun
looks like we gotta shoot our way out

the unbelievers are growing ever fewer
and i think the ayn rand quote has never been truer
good men assist their own demise
through their bona fides and compromise

train their spawn to stab and kill
the beheading thrill when the blood is spilled
they ejaculate when we detonate
their only trait, pathological hate

looks like we’ll have to shoot our way out
been watching these losers and there aint no doubt
the only way left is the way of the gun
ain’t no time for phasers on stun
looks like we gotta shoot our way out

shoot our way out
no options left, no other route
shoot our way out
no sentiment or grace about
shoot our way out
shoot our way out
looks like we’ll have to shoot our way out

Shoot Our Way Out (AR-15 Mix)

Nobody tries to land on the sun
Nobody pets a porcupine
But I'll never stop tryin'
To make you mine

they warned me about you
told me maybe steer clear
said there's plenty of fish
said there's always next year

but i want what i want
and i know i want you
last thought i have at night
first in the morning too

Nobody tries to land on the sun
Nobody pets a porcupine
But I'll never stop tryin'
To make you mine

have you ever been burned?
scarred and cut up so bad?
put through the ringer, spit on and spurned?
blocked and ghosted and driven mad?

wanted the one single thing
knew you could never be
the one song i picked to sing
needs lost chord harmony

Nobody tries to land on the sun
Nobody pets a porcupine
But I'll never stop tryin'
To make you mine

Nobody tries to land on the sun
Nobody pets a porcupine
But I'll never stop tryin'
To make you mine
