SWEET COUNTRY LOVING Sweet country loving is good for me Baby it's mine oh mine. The taste of butter and a cup of tea The smell of a hot stove fire You rocked that city right out of me from the time the stars came out And I'll be waiting so patiently CHORUS I packed a suitcase filled with high heel shoes Silk tops that shimmer in the light But I haven't had the chance to wear them once out here Cos you've got bigger plans for me at night So we close the curtains, we shuf off the lights, sip on a hot whiskey Where it's you and it's me getting hot as we can be You rocked that city right out of me from the time the stars came out And I'll be waiting so patiently CHORUS I packed a suitcase filled with high heel shoes Silk tops that shimmer in the light But I haven't had the chance to wear them once out here Cos you've got bigger plans for me at night I packed a suitcase filled with high heel shoes Silk tops that shimmer in the light But I haven't had the chance to wear them once out here Cos you've got bigger plans for me at night Cos you've got bigger plans for me at night Cos you've got bigger plans for me at night

Mean Gun 03:03
MEAN GUN Sometimes I get the impression that you like feeling down Feeling bad inspires you it keeps ideas around Well if it's working for you, I guess there's nothing wrong But by the way you talk I'd say that it's not I liked it better when you took your life in stride Filled it up with friends instead of filling it with pride I guess it's not my business what you do with your time But the space you point your mean gun, just make sure it isn't mine CHORUS But I can't figure out how to talk you Out of thinking they're all out to get you Or that it's all about you I used to know you when you laughed out loud You talked me out of bad moods even when I was proud Well I'm not perfect as I know you recall But lightening up a little never hurt no-one at all CHORUS But I can't figure out how to talk you Out of thinking they're all out to get you Or that it's all about you

Dead To Me 03:52
DEAD TO ME I washed my hands in the water, my foot is on your grave My heart is in the future My mind dwells on the mistakes I made so long ago Help me let it go Some ask why did I leave him, why didn't I stay? I tell them that's because he was clinically insane And I'd be no better if I'd spent another day by his side Help me let it go CHORUS Cos I've got scars to prove it and not just on my skin Tore down my soul and left me all skeleton Now I sing you are dead to me, my foot rests proudly on your grave You killed a part of me, but I survived you just the same We should say goodbye now to all the madness we can't forget Cos I can't forget you But I can't promise I will forgive Help me let it go

Wild West 03:18
WILD WEST The old west ain't as wild as they promised it to be And the sun sets in the hills behind some buildings And no-one rides a horse There's no cowboys here, I haven't seen one anywhere And the sun sets in the hills behind some buildings And the traffics getting worse CHORUS Ooh Ooh there's no cowboys here There's no gold out here, I haven't seen it anywhere And the sun blinds the drivers on the freeway And no-one rides a horse CHORUS Ooh Ooh there's no cowboys here I was promised the land of milk and honey It was sworn to me I was never promised it would be easy But I do believe they lied to me Cos there's no cowboys here CHORUS Ooh Ooh Ooh there's no cowboys here
