"Sixgun" (Willy Braun)

Sadie got a six gun
She ain’t afraid to use it
The banker took us straight down
to the safe and I blew it
The sheriff heard a big bang
In the broad daylight
And by the time the smoke cleared
We were nowhere in sight

Sadie got an Mustang
An old '64
Sadie got the top down
And her foot to the floor
Lights in the rearview
Got the fuzz on our tail
Better give me that scattergun, baby
I ain’t goin’ back to jail

Sadie got a hideout
Off of 71
We'll count up all the money
Ditch the car and the guns
Sadie says she loves me
I'll always be her man,
"And I’ll see you in Rio honey
We gotta stick to the plan"

I woke up in the hayloft
To the rooster's crow
No sign of Sadie
No sign of the dough
I’m heading to the airport
I got a little brass key
I got a ticket and a passport
Locker 32-B

Open up the blue box
There ain’t nothing inside
I been played like a fiddle
I’ve been taken for a ride
Sadie made a phone call
In the middle of the night
They’ve got the place surrounded
With the black and white

I got myself a hostage
In a Delta skirt
"Do as I tell you
And nobody gets hurt
Show me where your car's parked
You’re gonna have to drive
Because I’ll be hiding in the backseat
With a .45"

"Get me through the roadblock
Better drive real slow
Better play your cards right
And I’ll let you go"
And I hear my heart a pounding
As fast as it can
I hear the copper askin’
“Have you seen this man?”

Delta kept her mouth shut
Like a good girl should
"And you’re free to go now
'cuz you done real good"

Now I got a suitcase
And a thumb in the air
I don’t know where I’m goin’
And I don’t really care

Bubba’s got a big rig
And an empty seat
We’re headin’ to Laredo
It’s alright with me

I’ll check into a hotel
In old Mexico
I gotta wait until it cools down
I’m gonna lay a little low

Well I don’t miss the money
I don’t miss the guns
Well I sure miss Sadie
Even after all she’s done

Yea, Sadie left me hanging
And she told a lotta lies
Well it’s true what they say boys
True love never dies

True true love
True true love

"Castanets" (Alejandro Escovedo)

She plays castanets
She works without a net
I like her better when she walks away

She said she was mine
She told me twice
I like her better when she walks away

I like her better when she walks away
I like her better when she’s here to stay
I like her better when she danced my way
I like her better when she walks away yeah

I love the sun as it silhouettes
I like her better when she walks away
I love her hair as it falls across my face
I like her better when she walks away

I like her better when she walks away
I like her better when she’s here to stay
I like her better when she danced my way
You know I like it better when she walks away yeah

She plays castanets
She works without a net
I like her better when she walks away

She turns me on like a pickup truck
I like her better when she walks away
I like the sun shining through her dress
I like her better when she walks away
I like her hair in a tangled mess
I like her better when she walks away

I like her better when she walks away unh huh
I like her better when she’s here to stay
I like her better when she danced my way
You know I like it better when she walks away yeah

"Motel Cowboy Show" (Willy Braun, Cody Braun, David Abeyta)

Hey Ol’ Lady let’s go
To the Motel Cowboy Show
We’ll drink and dance
There’s no place else to go
We’ll stay out all night long
We’ll toast the break of dawn
Hey Ol’ Lady let’s go
To the Motel Cowboy Show

Well they rolled one for the road
Put on the same dirty ol’ clothes
Down the trail they rode
To the Motel Cowboy Show
Well they parked at the end of the line
Underneath the cold beer sign
It’s a long long way to ride
Without your whiskey and your wine
Something stronger would be fine
Something stronger would be fine

I said Hey Ol’ Lady lets go
To the Motel Cowboy Show
We’ll drink and dance
There’s no place else to go
We’ll hang out all night long
We’ll toast the break of dawn
Hey Ol’ Lady let’s go
To the Motel Cowboy Show

Well they walked through the swingin’ doors
Through the sawdust on the floor
Everybody was ready to go
At the Motel Cowboy Show

Well they’ve been all over the land
Not bad for a honky tonk band
Well it’s a long hard hill to climb
When you’re so far ahead of time
And you’ve never seen a dime
You’re so far ahead of your time

Hey Ol’ Lady lets go
To the Motel Cowboy Show
It’s late but there ain’t nowhere else to go
We’ll hang out all night long
We’ll toast the break of dawn
Hey Ol’ Lady let’s go
To the Motel Cowboy Show

Well the doses soon kicked in
And the fun would soon begin
The fun would soon begin

And the world did a great big spin
Ooooh baby it’s fun
It ain’t no sin

I know you well
You don’t remember
We partied way back in November
Of ’72 or was it ‘73
I know you well
You don’t remember me

All the faces changed
And the room went round
What a mystic place
What a mystic sound

Well they rolled one for the road
And they candied up their nose
Down the trail they rode
To the Motel Cowboy Show

Hey Ol’ Lady let’s go
To the Motel Cowboy Show
We’ll drink and dance
There’s no place else to go
The boys are in their prime
We’ll see ‘em one more time

Hey Ol’ Lady let’s go
To the Motel Cowboy Show

"I Still Do" (Willy Braun)

She said, Boy why don't you love me like you used to
You never want to hold me anymore
And I said, Girl now don't you go start talkin' crazy
'Cause I love you more than I ever have before

But if I don't show it lately
It's just 'cause I'm a little bit crazy
Don't think my days of lovin' you are through
'Cause I still do
I still do

Well I guess I must've slipped and let my guard down
'Cause you know you're always going to be my girl
Then I get turned around and lose direction
'Cause sometimes I forget you're my whole world

But if I don't show it lately
It's just 'cause I'm a little bit crazy
Don't think my days of lovin' you are through
'Cause I still do

I still do (Yeah!)
Hey if I don't show it lately
It's just 'cause I'm a little bit lazy
Don't think my days of lovin' you are through
'Cause I still do
I still do

I still do, darlin', I still do

"1952 Vincent Black Lightning" (Richard Thompson)

Well says Red Molly to James, that's a fine motorbike
A girl could feel special on any such like
Says James to Red Molly, my hat's off to you
That’s a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952
And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems
Red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme
And he pulled her on behind
And down to The Box Hill they did ride

Says James to Red Molly, here's a ring for your right hand
But I'll tell you in earnest I'm a dangerous man
For I've fought with the law since I was seventeen
I robbed many a man to get my Vincent machine
Now I'm 21, I might not make 22
But I don't mind dying, but for the love of you
And if fate should break my stride
Then I'll give you my Vincent to ride

Come down, come down, Red Molly, called Sergeant McRae
For they've taken young James Adie for armed robbery
Shotgun blast hit his chest, left nothing inside
Oh, come down, Red Molly to his dying bedside
When she came to the hospital, there wasn't much left
He was running out of road, he was running out of breath
But he smiled to see her cry
And said I'll give you my Vincent to ride

Well says young James, in my opinion, there's nothing in this world
Beats a 52 Vincent and a red headed girl
Now Nortons and Indians and Greeveses won't do
They don't have a soul like a Vincent 52
He reached for her hand and he slipped her the keys
He said I've got no further use for these
I see angels on Ariels in leathers and chrome
Swooping down from heaven to carry me home
And he gave her one last kiss and died
And he gave her his Vincent to ride

"Seven Nights In Eire" (Willy Braun, Muzzie Braun, Pinto Bennett)

The first pub we could stagger to was twelve steps from the plane
A Virgin flight to Shannontown the day it didn’t rain
The laughing eyes of Ireland sparkling blue and green
With hair as black as Guinness stout and barely seventeen

We’re back out on the cobblestones
Whiskey drunk and high again
Liquored up and gearing up for seven nights in Ireland

The corner booth is waiting for the session to begin
It’s quiet as a mother’s prayer ‘till we all stumble in
And it’s fifty happy voices mixed with whistles made of tin
And a piper man is blowing like the North Atlantic wind

And an Aran island beauty is sawing on the violin
I wonder will she miss me after seven nights in Ireland

It’s Ladies’ Day in Galway and we watched the ponies run
Fifty pounds against the odds and came in six to one
McSwiggin heard the race report, he invited us on in
So we drank Catholic whiskey with all our newfound friends

They raised a glass to all of us and we all toasted them
Here’s to Michael, Tom and Pat and seven nights in Ireland

Well we kissed all the girls goodbye and gathered in our gear
And when she walked me to the gate I swear I saw a tear
But then she looked into my eyes I knew she felt my pain
And only then I realized we were standing in the rain

So save our places at the pub and when the eyes are dry again
We’ll come back another day for seven nights in Ireland

"Break My Heart Tonight" (Willy Braun)

I got empty bottles and legal papers
Wrinkled up all over the floor
My pen won’t write
And my guitar doesn’t have a song in it anymore

I could write another love song
Yeah but first your gotta find someone to love
I could write another fight song
Yeah but there’s gotta be some thing to be proud of

And they say
Misery loves company
But it damn sure ain’t looking for me
I’ll be alright
I just gotta find someone to break my heart tonight

Goin’ out walkin’ on Avenue B
And I ain’t coming back until dawn
I’m gonna find some stranger in a Greenwich bar
To shower my affection upon

And maybe she’ll stay ‘til one fateful day
When we realize we got nothin’ left
And maybe I’ll find she’s messed up my mind
And I can get back to doing what I do best

And they say
Misery loves company
But lately it ain’t looking for me
I’ll be alright
I just gotta find someone to break my heart tonight

But all these A&R guys they’ve been knockin’ on my door
I guess the last batch wasn’t good enough
‘Cause they keep on wanting more and more

And they say
Write what you know
And it just goes to show
You gotta write your own destiny
I’ll be alright
I just gotta find someone to break my heart tonight

And they say
Misery loves company
But it damn sure ain’t looking for me
I’ll be alright
I just gotta find someone to break my heart tonight

"Nobody's Girl" (Willy Braun & Micky Braun)

The first man that you ever loved
Left your mama and never said goodbye to anyone
And you were raised with your head held high
But any fool can see it’s just a clever disguise

You’re nobody’s baby
You’re nobody’s darlin’
You’re nobody’s girl

You’ve always been a little scared to open your heart
And you never let anybody take it too far
You never let ‘em on the inside
'Cause you’re always scared you’ll be taken for a ride

You’re nobody’s baby
You’re nobody’s darlin’
You’re nobody’s girl

Everybody wants you but you don’t want to care
So you keep ‘em at a distance with the frown you wear
You spend your time trying to even the score
And you’ve got it in your head you deserve a lot more

The first one was a true disaster
So was the second one and every one after
But when you’re breaking in a broken home
You’re gonna be sure to spend some nights on your own

When you’re nobody’s baby
You’re nobody’s darlin’
You’re nobody’s girl

You’re nobody’s baby
You’re nobody’s darlin’
You’re nobody’s girl

You’re nobody’s girl

"Hey Say May/Guacamole" ("Hey Say May" by Chris Schelske, Willy Braun "Guacamole" by Freddie Fender, Paige Levy & Augie Meyers)

I got a phone call today
from a girl who walked away
But I hung it up before I heard what it was she had to say

Hey say may
Well I drank all day
Damnit I told her
I'm doin' alright

I found a letter buried in my drawer
what it said I'm not quite sure
But it's been so long since you walked out my door, I just don't care anymore

I don't care
Fallin' drunk down the stairs
Damnit I told her
I'm doin' alright

I'm doin' alright
I'm doin' alright, yeah
And nobody's changin' the way that I'm feelin' tonight
'cause I'm doin' alright

Well it must've been twelve months ago
when I found it slipped under my door
But I never read it, I guess I was sore, I don't even know now what for

For the girl next door
Twenty years before
There's cookie crumbs on my floor
I'm doin' alright

And then a moment of weakness it came
then as I looked at her name
I shook my head as I struck a match and I watched it all go up in flames

Up in flames
As I smoke my mary jane
Goddamnit I told her
I'm doin' alright

I'm doin' alright
I'm doin' alright, yeah
and nobody's changin' the way that I'm feelin' tonight
'cause I'm doin' alright

Except for my multiple personalities.....

Met her at the Mercado
She was buying avacados
Man, she really turned me on

She reached for my pepper
I grabbed her tomatoes
I knew it wouldn’t be very long

She went to the mesa
I grabbed my cerveza
I got the onions & lemon

And the way she looked at me
Man, I could clearly see
It wouldn’t be very long

Guacamole!
Guacamole!
We’d me making Guacamole all night long

Guacamole!
Guacamole!
We’d be making Guacamole all night long

She headed for the light
I fell in right behind
Man, she sure looked good to me

She reached for her money
I said wait a minute honey
I believe this one is on me

So we got in my pickup
We started to back up
Headed on down the road

We went to her casa
Tortillas de masa
And made guacamole all night long

Guacamole!
Guacamole!
We’d be making guacamole all night long

Guacamole!
Guacamole!
We’d be making guacamole all night long
We’d be making guacamole all night long
Guacamole!

We're doin' alright!

"Vancouver" (Willy Braun)

When the sun went down
You were sitting under someone else’s sunset
And I wasn’t around
And you were wishing that I was a guy that you'd just met

And I was probably stumbling down some back street alley in Amsterdam
While you were making excuses and breaking another heart
Or maybe I was drinking wine with the pigeons in a square in Venice
And I was wondering what you’re doing
And wondering where you are

When the stars came out
I was sitting in a studio on Sunset
And the lights were down
And I was wishing the time we had wasn’t over yet

And you were probably sitting in the airport waiting on a plane to Vegas
While I was packing a suitcase staring at a waiting car
Or maybe you were heading out to some house party on Lake Austin
And I was wondering what you’re doing
And wondering where you are

When my luck ran out
I was sitting on a concrete block in Little Rock
We didn’t scream or shout
We just said good-bye
And I waited for the click
And the lights went out

And now I’m packing it up and I’m rollin' on out to Vancouver
For some wasted youth and a fresh set of lonely stars
And I’m wondering baby, if you ever saw the best of us
And I’m wondering what you’re doing
And wondering where you are

I still wonder what you’re doing
And wonder where you are

"Wiggles & Ritalin" (Willy Braun & Micky Braun)

Let’s put on the Wiggles & pop a couple Ritalin
Don’t blame mama or tell her how lazy she’s been
It’s been prescribed by a doctor
And the doctor said it ain’t no sin
So let’s put on the Wiggles & pop a couple Ritalin

Let’s put on MacGyver & chow a couple Xanax bars
I don’t need no college counselor to tell me how lucky I are
I lay the blame on the clinic and man it’s got me this far
Yeah, Let’s put on MacGyver & chow a couple Xanax bars

If only Dad would have spanked me instead
Of dopin’ me up and messing with my head
I might have turned out to be a regular guy
But it’s all that I know and I gotta get high

So let’s put on some Soul Train and snort a little cocaine
I’ll chop some lines maybe one at a time ‘till we’re feeling no pain
I’ll bite my tongue till it’s numb and I’ll talk ‘till I drive you insane
Yeah, let’s put on some Soul Train and snort a little cocaine

If only Dad would have spanked me instead
Of dopin’ me up and messing with my head
I might have turned out to be a regular guy
But it’s all that I know and I gotta get high

So let’s put on some Scooby Doo & smoke a couple doobie doos
I’ve been high since I was just a little guy in my Underoos
I sit around on my ass smokin’ grass and watchin’ classic cartoons
Yeah, let’s put on some Scooby Doo & smoke a couple doobie doos

Yeah, Let’s put on some Scooby Doo & smoke a couple doobie doos

"Baby's Gone Blues" (Willy Braun)

My baby says she's goin',
gonna go
gonna leave me on my own
Yeah my baby says she's goin',
gonna go,
gonna leave me on my own
Yeah but she's been talkin' like she's gonna be walkin'

Boo Hoo Hoo

Can't believe she's gone,
baby said goodbye,
And tore apart our happy home
Can't believe she's gone,
baby said goodbye,

fallin’ from my eyes all alone
You know I can't believe she's gone,

she tore apart our happy little home

Yeah my baby says she's goin',
gonna go,
gonna leave me on my own
Yeah my baby says she's goin',

My baby says she's goin',
gonna go,
gonna leave me on my own

On my own
On my own
Yeah Baby's gone. . .

She’s long gone y’all!

"Wicked Twisted Road" (Willy Braun)

My first love was a wicked twisted road
I hit the million mile mark at seventeen years old
I never saw the rainbow, much less a pot of gold
Yeah, my first love was a wicked twisted road

My first love was a castle in the sky
I never thought I’d make it till I had the guts to try
Then I sat up in my tower while the whole world passed me by
Yeah, my first love was a castle in the sky

My first love was a fearless driving rain
Scared to death I thought I’d never see her face again
They say God was crying so I guess he felt my pain
My first love was a fearless driving rain

My first love was a wild sinful night
I ran out with the big dogs
Guess I had more bark than bite
I know I won the battle but in the end I lost the fight
Yeah, my first love was a wild sinful night

My first love was an angry painful song
I wanted one so bad I went and did everything wrong
A lesson in reality would come before too long
Yeah, my first love was an angry painful song

My first love was a wicked twisted road
I hit the million mile mark at seventeen years old
I never saw the rainbow, much less a pot of gold
Yeah, my first love was a wicked twisted road

My first love was a wicked twisted road

"Crazy Eddie's Last Hurrah" (Willy Braun)

Well it sure didn't take too long
I woke up one mornin', she was gone
And the note that she wrote didn't say "Dear John"
It said, "Goodbye, fucker, I'm gone!"

She was a home-grown mountain girl
Raised in a different world
I was a wanna-be rocker, she was more into Merle
And I couldn't see it just wouldn't work

And now I'm double fisting longnecks
and grapefruit and Stoli
But I'm never gettin' over Jolie

Well I pulled myself in my car
I drove it on down to the bar
But they wouldn't let me in, 'cause I ain't a movie star
So I went to the Horseshoe on Lamar

The bouncer threw me out at two
And I didn't know what to do
So I picked up the phone and I called guess who
But the call block wouldn't let me through

And now I'm wishin' for some drugs
Or a shrink to console me
But I'm never gettin' over Jolie

BAND INTRODUCTIONS

Well I gathered up all of my guns
And a pipe bomb just for fun
And I drove to her house and parked on the lawn
She's right, I always was a crazy one

Well her boyfriend was sure nice to me
He said, Calm down, would you like a drink?
And then I shot him full of holes from his nose to his knees
And I polished off my little sweet pea

And now I'm cryin' on my knees, feelin' dirty and unholy
But I'm never gettin' over Jolie
Now I'll prob'ly get life and serve at least forty
But I'm never gettin' over Jolie

Hey ….. I’m feelin’ like a chip left with no Guacamole
And I’m never getting’ over Jolie
