Last train from New York, he hangs his head Shoes they're done worn through But those dogs'll chase him til he's dead He bows his head, only thing left to do Oh bow his head Though he knows God don't listen to fools She calls out at midnight to a silent moon She made herself forget him But in dreams and he breaks back through Says I know I ain't been a perfect woman No, I know I done my share But if anyone's still on my side, well Listen to my prayer She bows her head Only thing she hasn't done Oh bow her head Though she knows it won't bring him home Banks of the river Hear them howlin' hounds Know he can't run no further But in that water he knows he'll drown Says I know I lived a life of sin And I can't go back to what I had again But if this be my last stand 'Least I die a free man Oh bow my head, no reason but what I done Bow my head, though I know my chances are done

Mother mother mine, I lost my way Got caught by a lovers bite, but he sent me away Told me to grow towards the light Tunnel to my heart, it's a long way down Find the missing part, been long gone now Funny I been tryin' to steal it away From another person's loving But it never seemed to stay Told me to grow towards the light And now I sing to myself 'cause it's good to be alone 'Cause this here blood and bone, is all I can ever really own Just gonna grow towards the light

Lovely Ghost 04:27
Pity me and take me up to higher ground Can't help what I'm drinking up And I don't want to drown Oh I held it in the palm of my hand So it don't get too close Then loose it 'fore I take a chance Now I'm staring at a Ghost Oh don't mind me, I'm just living with a lovely ghost Don't know how to tell you this But I don't want you to stay I know that what you feel for me is real But I still gotta go my own way Don't hate me 'cause I can't give you more Don't hate me 'cause I'm letting this go I only know how to me alone When I lie with this ghost Oh don't mind me, I'm just living with a lovely ghost I just want to sleep, won't you let me sleep? Oh don't mind me, I'm just living with a lovely ghost

Siren Song 03:50
Way, way out on the water That's where I'll lay my bones Sink them down to the bottom 'Til I don't need so stars, to find my way home I been blessed by the devil Made this siren sing Made every man I ever loved bleed for me No I don't need no stars, to find my way home Tell me I'm catching fire Burning all to black But I don't see the way I come or the way back No I don't need so stars to find my way home So take away your healing hands There ain't no way I'm going back And if you try, might turn yourself black Oh I don't need no stars on my way home

There is a house in New Orleans They call the rising sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl And God, I know I'm one Oh my mother was a tailor She sewed them blue blue jeans My husband he's a gamblin' man And he drinks down in New Orleans Well the only thing a gambler needs Is to roam from town to town The only way he's satisfied Is when his liquor is down Oh I'm going back to New Orleans The race is almost done I'm gonna spend the rest of my life Beneath that rising sun
