I'm staring down a mile of disappearing track
Is this the best that we could do
I'm leaning through the rain but you ain't...
Soon the pines will be falling everywhere
Village children fight each other for a share
And the 6:09 goes roaring past the...
I'll catch the tramline in the morning
With your leave Van Bushell said
He had further heard the cock crow
As he...
From this day on I own my father's gun
We dug his shallow grave beneath the sun
I laid his broken body down below the southern...
Rolling over trying to sleep
And understanding women
Thinking of you out there somewhere
Looking for a new beginning
I took myself a blue canoe
And I floated like a leaf
Dazzling, dancing
Half enchanted
In my Merlin sleep...
Whenever I hear good-bye
Reminds me, baby, of you
I break down and cry
The next time I'll be true, yeah

Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak
Living like a lusty...
Holding all the pictures that my life's drawn
I never find I'm missing love

Some punk with a shotgun killed young Danny Bailey
In cold blood, in the lobby of a downtown motel
Killed him in anger, a force he couldn't handle
Helped pull the trigger that cut short his life
And there's not many knew him the way that we did
Sure enough he was a wild one, but then aren't most hungry kids
Now it's all over Danny Bailey
And the harvest is in
Dillinger's dead
I guess the cops won again
Now it's all over Danny Bailey
And the harvest is in
We're running short of heroes back up here in the hills
Without Danny Bailey we're gonna have to break up our stills
So mark his grave well `cause Kentucky loved him
Born and raised a proper, I guess life just bugged him
And he found faith in danger, a lifestyle he lived by
A running gun youngster in a sad restless age
