Hi folks...These personal pages are a place for Tim and I to say exactly what's on our minds in any way we choose. It will be the only places on this website where we might relate personal and political views and our opinions about anything that strikes our fancy. It will not be all moaning and groaning political stuff. I'll opine as I wish and I will also write very interesting personal pieces and stories. I also will use this page as a daily journal when we're on tour so that I can share with you what's going on etc....It will be interesting to watch these Personal Pages develop over the coming months. Please come back often and feel free to leave a blog about anything I might have to say...no blogs will be deleted just because we may not agree. One thing I can assure you.....it won't be boring in here...!
;) Danny

"Lyrics......Black As Love"
"Lyrics....Black As Love"
You know I'm gonna need you
In the mornin' when I rise
You know I'm never gonna leave you
Your sweet caress will open my eyes
.. ..
chorus:
Black as the Devil
Hot as hell
Pure as an angel
Sweet as love
Your dark embrace is all I need
To set me free
.. ..
I feel you hover 'round my bed tonight
Like some siren from the eastern sky
If I don't have you soon I'll go insane
Your black venom runnin' through my veins
.. ..
repeat choruses:

“Green River ”
Sometimes I forget to see
Life’s bein’ real good to me
Breathin’ easy is comin’ naturally
Like takin’ candy from a baby
Walkin’ down the street
Try to smile at everyone I meet
Then I saw her standin’ on the corner that day
Like a kitty in the gutter makes another man pay
I think of the times that we spent by the river
We shined in the light of the silvery moon
The days were slow and the nights were longer
Little did I know that it would be over soon
Now she finds her way into another mans pocket
Gotta buy the fuel so she can fly all alone
I hate to let her go but I sure do miss her
The little girl inside of her won’t be back soon
chorus:
I miss the Green River
Shining in the light of a silvery moon
I miss the Green River
I hate to see her leavin’ but that’s the way it goes
I hate to see her leavin’ but that’s the way it goes

“ Shelby Street ”
If I take you to my house, you would not be impressed
The bathroom smells of late last night and the kitchen is a mess
If I don’t make my bed up, it’s not that I don’t care
There just may be some action on that fine old bridge down there
I don’t pay the IRS , I really know I should
But right now I’m a hundred-aire and it’s feelin’ mighty good
And if I take you for a ride, across that river deep
You might think I’m crazy ‘cause it’s all the world to me
Chorus:
Guess I’ll go around and round
‘til I can’t stop my feet
Sometimes the world goes upside down
There on Shelby Street , down there on Shelby Steet
I really hate to go downtown
At all you know these days
And be turned down by some pretty girl
In a stinkin’ barroom haze
I may not be a modern man
But that’s alright with me
We’ll fire our rockets with the wind
And go swingin’ through the trees

“Voice of an Angel”
You, let me love you tonight
Let me hold you in my dreams
And I, as I watch you sleep
I hear the voice of an angel callin’ me
Come to me, come to me
I, as I walk alone
And I take your hand in mine
And I would fly, to the moon for you
But it ain’t time for me to leave this place
I miss your face, come back to me
And you, as you slip away
As you rise above I fall
Down, to this earthly place
I hang my hat alone when I get home
And you’re gone……….
You, let me love you tonight
Let me hold you in my dreams
And I, as I watch you sleep
I hear the voice of an angel callin’ me
Come to me, come to me

“Hillbilly Hollywood ”
Leaving California like a buffalo runnin’
The stars don’t shine so bright no more
Hollywood and Vine just ain’t the place it used to be
Ten million faces on the cutting room floor
Lookin’ out the window at the concrete jungle
New York streets ain’t no place for me
The fishin’ really sucks on the Staten Island ferry
Take me back to a Tennessee stream
Chorus:
Hillbilly Hollywood
Where the dreamers come and go
It’s the land of milk and honey
Hillbilly Hollywood
Way down yonder in the bayou country
They mix their liquor with crawfish tails
Dancin’ in the light of a silvery moon
The squeezebox laughs the fiddle it wails
Mr. Bill standin’ on bluegrass mountain
Listen to his songs and the storys they told
Watchin’ people come and go from Music City
The streets he left are paved with gold

“My Baby Thinks I’m Great”
My baby loves me, my baby thinks I’m great
My baby loves me, my baby thinks I’m great
When she wakes up in the mornin’
The newspaper’s at her feet
Hair like a raven, skin so pale and sweet
She got hair like a raven, skin so pale and sweet
Lips that taste like honey
Those big brown eyes they bring me to my knees
I’m crazy ‘bout my baby
My baby’s crazy ‘bout me
My baby thinks I’m crazy
My baby’s crazy ‘bout me
Baby drives me crazy when she throws the scent on me
She moves like molasses, when she dances for me
She moves like molasses, when she dances for me
When she slides across the hardwood
Girl is gonna set me free
I called my baby, on her telephone
I called my baby, asked her when she’s comin’ home
She said I’m kinda tied up now
But I’ll be movin’ along
My baby loves me, my baby thinks I’m great
My baby loves me, my baby thinks I’m great
When she wakes up in the mornin’
The newspaper’s at her feet

“ Shacktown Road ”
There’s a dirty little corner on the south end of town
Where the people are getting’ ready, gonna tear it all down
The air is hot but your blood will run cold
If your mama ever catch ya down on Shacktown Road
Chorus:
Shacktown Road , lord that’s where I wanna go
Everybody wants to go, down there to Shacktown Road
Wendy’s on the corner sellin’ love at first site
Jackie will take you to the parkin’ lot, gonna make you feel right
Bubba’s on the pulpit, gonna play ya some blues
Down on Shacktown Road , ya gonna hear all of the news
My mama told me son you better stay away from there
There ain’t nothin’ but trouble on that street of despair
All the trouble I’ve seen around this whole wide world
Can’t compare to the business down there on Shacktown Road

“The Fire”
How do you feel in the middle of the night
When I’m not there to hold you tight
I can tell ‘ya for a fact that I’m feelin’ rather lonely
I need so much my soul is burnin’
I want, I need you, you know that gotta have ‘ya
And I’ll be there when the time is needed
All I feel is a very warm desire
I’m getting’ closer to home I can feel your fire
Chorus:
Oooo…..
Oooo…..
Oooo…..
Without you……..
I never knew that I could feel like this
And I don’t wanna know if any others ever exist
I love the way you dance around my fire
I need you inside my soul right now it’s wired
I’m gonna take you all night long my baby
I wantcha right now girl your’re drivin’ me crazy
Please c’mon back into my fold my darlin’
I can’t wait no more to feel your guns a-firing
I can’t sleep
With out you………

“We Got Work To Do”
Chorus:
We got work to do, we got work to do
Sweet Jesus take me by the hand
Goanna spread the word all across the land
We got work to do, yeah we got work to do
In this world of war and hate
We gonna need your strength just to open up the gate
And let your love come pourin’ through
I feel the light shine on me and you
Yeah I know that Jesus when you tell me
We gotta love one another if we wanna be free
I think of the children when they sleep at night
I know your gonna make everything alright
Every child every woman every natural born man
We gotta walk with Jesus at his right hand
When the whole world listens to what you say
Tomorrow’s gonna be the glory day
