Ain't No Grave

There ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna rise right out of the ground
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well, look way down the river, what do you think I see?
I see a band of angels and they're coming after me
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well, look down yonder Gabriel put your feet on the land and see
But Gabriel don't you blow your trumpet 'til you hear it from me
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well, meet me, Jesus, meet me, meet me in the middle of the air
And if these wings don't fail me I will meet you anywhere
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well, meet me mother and father, meet me down the river road
And momma you know that I'll be there when I check in my load
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down

Drinking Tea

I like drinking tea in the morning
I like drinking tea at night
I like drinking tea in the afternoon
I’ll drink it all the time!
I like going on walks in the morning
I like going on walks at night
I like walking in the afternoon
I’ll walk all the time!
I like going to sleep early
I don’t want to stay up at night
Cause I’m an early riser
Because I’m falling all the time
And I ain’t really into all that drinking
And I ain’t really into wine
Cause I don’t need to have that stuff to have fun
I’m doing fine
And if you need to breath
We can be fine together
If you want to feel free
We can be fine together
If you want be happy
We can be fine together
Come and see me and
We’ll be fine together!

Awww shit, I wish I had a job to quit
Awww shit, I wish I had a place to go
Awww shit, this town’s gonna kill me quick
So I’m riding this train alone
You know that this world’s full of hypocrites
Oh lord, you know that I am getting on that road
And sometimes what I see makes me feel sick
So I’m riding on this train alone
And grandpa didn’t fight the war for fascists
And this town is so corrupt, that I gotta go
I packing up my stuff I’ve had enough of this
So I’m riding on this train alone
I’m riding, lord I’m riding on this train alone

Well they’ll take me to that forest
Trying to bury me in the leaves
Well they’re trying to break my bones
They’re trying to break down me
I may be rooted, but I’ll always be free
Cause they caught me on that highway
With my suitcase in my hand
I’m robbing every bank I can see
Across this corrupt land
I may be rooted, but they won’t get a-hold on me
They take me to that river
Trying to bury me in the sea
They’re putting me six feet under
But that won’t stop me
I may be rooted, but I’ll always be free
Now they caught me on that highway
With a six shooter in my hand
They caught me with that suitcase
After robbing this land
But I’ll be back lord, these bars they won’t stop me
So they buried me in that dirt
They buried me in that hole
They buried me by the river
With a burden on my soul
Now I may be underground, but I’ll always be free
Because they caught me on that highway
They caught me on the run
and brought them down with me
before I gave up that gun
I may be free, but they caught me on the run

What Have I Done

They will take everything they can get from you
They will take everything
They will take everything they can get from you
There's no way you can win
They will take this food
They will take this place
They will take my money
They will take this space that i call my home
And they ain't gonna quit
They ain't gonna quit
This town is gonna kill me quick
And there's smoke in my lungs
And my fingers are worked down to the bone
My rent is due at the end of the month
My rent is due at the end of the month
Oh lord I'm out of luck
My rent is due at the end of the week
My rent is due at the end of the week
Now this town is killing me
My rent is due tomorrow
My rent is due tomorrow
And I still ain't got the dough
My rent is due this afternoon
My rent is due this afternoon
This town is killing me soon
There's a-knocking at my door
And I can't take no more
Had to feed my kids
Had to feed my wife
If we wanted to stay alive
What could I do
I thought I'd rob a bank
And I'll take my gun
But i never meant to hurt no-one
What could I do
So I load my gun and i head down town
I open the door
And scream "Get on the ground"
What could I do
But one man feels brave and I feel scared
And my gun goes off
In my hand
What have I become
I Killed a man, what have I done
I put up my hands
And drop down my gun
I hang my head
I took a life just to save mine
And I will face the
Hands of time
Lord Knows I deserve it all

What Have I Become

These four walls hold me
In this prison cell
There’s bars all around me
As far as I can tell
I lost, my mind today
As I watched my life waste away
There’s no hope for me now
And I know that I let myself down
INCARCERATED I MUST STAY
INCARCERATED
I still remember his stare
It was not my life to spare
If I could re-write everything then I would
I’d change everything if I could
And my soul, just wants, to be free
But my oppressors, keep oppressing me
But my brain, won’t let, me go
And my heart, it tells, me no
INCARCERATED I MUST STAY
INCARCERATED
I only got, one meal, today
But I guess, that’s just the price I pay
Well I did it all to feed my family
But the judge, he could never see
I, just want, to get away
But, incarcerated I must stay
I’m, so lonesome I could cry
And I’m, so hurt that I could die
INCARCERATED I MUST STAY
INCARCERATED
I sit, and look through the bars
My hands show my hurt through the scars
And I’ll always pay for what I’ve done
I should’ve never loaded that gun
INCARCERATED I MUST STAY
INCARCERATED
FOR WHAT I DONE I'LL ALWAYS PAY
INCARCERATED
I'LL BE HERE UNTIL MY DYING DAY
INCARCERATED
