1. HORSE NATION

And they come
And they come

See them prancing
They come neighing, they come
A horse nation
See them prancing, they neighing come
See them prancing
They come neighing and they neighing come

The whole world is coming
From the four directions
Scream and shout

See them prancing
They come neighing and they come
A horse nation
See them prancing, they neighing came
See them prancing
Proudly they came

The whole world is coming
From the four directions
And I scream and shout

The whole world is coming
From the four directions
Scream and shout

Let it be beautiful when I sing the last song
I will give you even my body

Let all the children kiss the sun before they sing their last song
I will give you even my body

Let the sun shine on me when I sing the last song
I will give you even my body

Let all the children kiss the stars before they sing their last song
I will give you even my body
Spiritwalker

Spiritwalker

Let all the children kiss the sun before they sing their last song
Let all the children kiss the sun before they sing their last song

I will have the whole world to make music with me

3. 83RD DREAM

Four crows nailed to a wooden post
Bleed upon a barren field
An old way that I don't understand
It kinda touched me for a day

Four crows nailed to a wooden post
Bleed upon a barren field
An old way that I don't understand
You know, it kinda touched me for a day

There are no bright skies
Where the eagle flies
Suddenly, inside me, inside me
I don't need
I am alive
I am alive
Hey, hey

So psychedelic, driving over the sun
Past the still sky trees and fields
To the place the great relics have kissed you know
It kinda touched me for a day

There are no bright skies
Where the eagle flies
Suddenly, inside me, inside me
I don't need
I am alive
I am alive


4. BUTTERFLIES

The wild wide eye with her painted wing
She crushed the gray boy
Don't you know my selfishness was my suicide
Her painted wing became my suicide, suicide

The whole world did not start to cry
They just got inside me
And now they walk behind me
They walk behind me
They walk behind me
Oh lord
Like little dogs
Like stony dogs, you know
Stony dogs
Stony dogs

They walk behind me, oh lord
They walk
Behind me
Behind me, oh lord


5. GO WEST

Go west young man
And break bread in the new lands
And my life is over
While yours just beginning

Go west young man
And break bread in the new lands
And my life is over
While yours just beginning

We can offer you everything

The crazy spinning circle's going round and round
The crazy spinning circle's going round and round
The crazy spinning circle's going round and round
Around and round
Around and round

Go west young man
Are your dreams in the new lands
And my life is over
While yours just beginning

Say hey
Go west young man
Go west young man
And spread your wings in the new, new, new, new, new lands
And my life is over while yours just beginning
Say hey

We can offer you everything

Go west young man
And break those heads in the new lands
And my life is over
While yours just beginning

Say hey
We can offer you everything

The crazy spinning circle's going round and round
The crazy spinning circle's going round and round
The crazy spinning circle's going round and round
Around and round
Around and round

Crazy
The world is crazy
Around and round
Crazy


6. GIMMICK

There's a whisper in the wires, no love
Of a black train-a-coming, no love
From the heart of the desert, no love
And the rhythms of my hometown

My eyes are open, no love
Watching for the train, no love, no love
Just a breath across the ocean
Feel no love
If it flies, it dies

Flags into a pocket, no love
We're standing on a platform
Feel no love
In everyone a hook line, no love, no love
Against me making time
Feel no love

Whisper in the wires, no love
Of a black train-a-coming, no love, no love
From the heart of the desert, no love
And the rhythms of my hometown
And the rhythms of my hometown
Feel no love
And the rhythms of my hometown


7. A FLOWER IN THE DESERT

Wait a minute, my friend
Don't pass me up for dead
As Babylon crumbles to sand
A sweet flower blossoms in my hand
Another day is ending for you
Another day

While I'm alive, you see my rivers flowing
Don't wanna be like you
There are no wild beasts in here, I know
There are no wild beasts in here, we know

And a voice of the people cries
As it drones on in monotone
Here is the news, it's all so sad, sad
Ooh, and those black and whites
But thy knew it
Took a few and those panties in acquainted ways
Come on
Come on
Come on away, yeah

Wait a minute, my friend
Don't pass me up for dead
As Babylon crumbles to sand
A sweet flower blossoms in my hand
Another day is ending for you
Another day, another day

I'm alive
You see my body burning
Burning up in here
There are no others in here, I know
There are no others in here, oh no
Burning up in here
You know, you know

Step a little closer
I wonder if you can
Remember me in this way


8. DREAMTIME

Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Oh the dream, dreamtime

I will have my dreamtime
My dreamtime, my dreamtime
The only thing untouched that's mine
I will have my dreamtime

Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Oh the dream, dreamtime

I will wear my hair long
My hair long, my hair long
An extension of my heart
I will wear my hair long

Dream
Dream

Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Oh the dream, dreamtime

I will have my dreamtime
My dreamtime, my dreamtime
The only thing untouched that's mine
I will have my dreamtime

Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Dreamtime, dreamtime
Oh the dream, dreamtime

Dream
Dreamtime


9. RIDER IN THE SNOW

Reaching for a reason
A rider in the snow
Has not far to go
Has not far to go

Bomb unite the land
I call deep inside
Where no barriers hide
There's no mistake
The time of change

Blow my body, blow
The four winds in the snow

Meanwhile back in town
Behind a paper frown
There's no mistake
The time of change
The stars sigh as they look down
His horse is broken now
On his knees
Gray hair tumbled down
His gray hair tumbled down

Blow my body, blow
The four winds in the snow


10. BAD MEDICINE WALTZ

It's funny how people stare
When your back's against the wall
It's funny how people stare
When your back's against the wall

I reach my hand
I reach my hand
For that bad medicine

The crowds are full of heroes
Propping up the mark with their empty goals
It's starting and it's raining
And the porno burns my eyes
Wipe away the tear
With the skin from my hide

Don't you give into that bad medicine
Keep on smiling

It's funny how people stare
When your back's against the wall
Oh, it's funny how people stare
When your back's against the wall

I've heard about this new world you're building
But will there be room for me?
It's starting and it's raining
And the porno burns my eyes
Wipe away the tear
With the skin from my hide

Reach out for that bad medicine
Ooh, feel your skin burn
Feel your soul turn

Don't you give into
Don't you give into that bad medicine
Bad medicine

Smile, it may take a while
But it's better than being nailed to the floor
Spit in their face if they stare while you're down
Don't reach out for that bad medicine
Don't reach out for that bad medicine

Try smiling or smile or smile
Bad medicine get hold of
Bad medicine get hold of you
Wipe away the tears
With the skin from my hide
Wipe away the tears
With the skin from my hide

It's funny how people stare
When your back's against the wall
It's funny how people stare
When your back's against the wall

I reach out my hand
I reach out my hand for that bad medicine
Don't you give into
Don't you give into that bad medicine
That bad medicine
Bad medicine
Bad medicine


11. BONEBAG

The strangeness that I feel
Rattles my bones
It rattles my bones

Ain't no bonebag
I'm tired and sagging
Only 21 but feel like 99 sometimes

Just sittin' here
In my lazy chair
Watching all the young ones
With their grey hair

Ain't no bonebag
I'm tired and sagging
You know I feel like 99 sometimes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, bonebag
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, bonebag

Ain't no bonebag
I'm tired and sagging
Only 21 but I feel like 99 sometimes
Makes me feel like 99

Feel like 99
And I feel, feel, feel
Feel like 99
Only 21 sometimes

Feel like
Feel like
Bonebag
Bonebag
Bonebag
Ain't no bonebag

Bonebag
Ain't no bonebag
Ain't no bonebag

And I feel like 99 sometimes
Ain't no bonebag
I'm tired and sagging
I ain't no bonebag
I'm tired anymore

Only 21
Like 99 sometimes


12. SEA AND SKY

The boats have sailed away
I stand here on the shore
Can't see them anymore
Can't see them anymore

Waving from afar
To the land called home
Can you come back soon
We wish we could
We think we've gone too far
On this ship of fools
We think we've gone too far
On this ship of fools

And now I walk the shore
Searching for my soul
Born in sea and sky
I was born in sea and sky

Cast afloat the sea
Is the ship of fools
And cast afloat the sea
Is the ship of fools

Heaven's know why
They went away
They're all aboard
Except for me
Can you come back soon
We wish we could
We think we've gone too far
On this ship of fools
On this ship of fools
On this ship of fools

And now I walk the shore
Searching for my soul
And born in sea and sky
I was born in sea and sky

In this ship of fools
In this ship of fools
Cast afloat the sea
Is this ship of fools

We think we've gone too far


13. RESURRECTION JOE

I said hep cats, sinners, brats
Suck on this for sunshine
This is the resurrection, yeah, of all the good times
I said hep cats, sinners, brats, sunshine
This is the resurrection, yeah, yeah, of the good times

I said hep cats, sinners, brats
Suck on me for sunshine

Two soldiers went marching
Well, down an open road
With a guilty load
One turned the other, said
I am dead
This is my calling
On to you
My resurrection for you, yeah

Suck on this for sunshine
Resurrection Joe

I said hep
Suck on this for the sunshine

Resurrection Joe
Resurrection Joe
