1. DOWN THE DUSTPIPE

Heading down the back turnpike, signposts are pointing west
Fell into the lonely dustpipe, hope my pick-up can stand the Test
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my Jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town Like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Guess I didn't make it in the city, but that's just the way That it goes
'Cos there's a lotta lunatics, crazy ghostmen, baby, don't Like the shape of my nose
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my Jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town l
Like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my Jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town Like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now.


2. RAILROAD

Railroad she left me standing on a line
Railroad she's really leaving me this time
Leaving on the midnight train
Leaving never gonna come back again

I'm living alone
A place of my own
A bed a chair and one back door
Something went wrong
With the words to my song
And now she ain't around no more
It was something she said
As she laid on my bed
Six or seven hours ago
I guess I was wrong
I really didn't think she would go

Railroad she left me standing on a line
Railroad she's really leaving me this time
Leaving on the midnight train
Leaving never gonna come back again

Her face was always smiling
Guess she was always laughing at me
I said her face was always smiling
Guess she was always laughing at me
If I'd realised
I'd be less suprised
To find that she was laughing at me


3. UMLEITUNG

I don't need you mama, I just need your love
I'm here for loving so take it while I'm good enough
I just need your love

Seems I've waited longer than I've ever done
My mind is getting evil and my body's numb
Woman can I come?
Woman can I come to you?
'Cos I need your love
Yes I need your love

I don't need you mama, I just need your love
I'm here for loving so take it while I'm good enough
I just need your love

Seems I've waited longer than I've ever done
My mind is getting evil and my body's numb
Woman can I come?
Woman can I come to you?
'Cos I need your love
Yes I need your love


4. LAKKY LADY

Ah well, I've got a woman and I love, love her so
She is big, fat and lazy but I want you all to know
That I love her and I need that woman so
She is my little lady and I'm glad that you all know

When she wakes in the morning and her figure tells no lies
My eyesight is broken when the light shines on her tights
But I love her and I need that woman so
Oh how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go

And I love her and I need that woman so
Oh well how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go

Ah well she is so lazy, how she moves I'll never know
She was so different eleven years ago
But I love her and I need that woman so
She's a big lakky lady but I love that woman so


5. DAUGHTER

You and I can see what's going wrong
We know we don't like it going wrong
Daughter can you have sons for yourself
Daughter can you have some for yourself

All your whiskered friends their wings and life
Who knows what 'o' ever reason why
Daughter can you have sons for yourself
Daughter can you have some for yourself

Listen to the sounds of lowry pride
Seen her in the truth within her life
Daughter can you have sons for yourself
Daughter can you have some for yourself


6. GERDUNDULA

Love it seems I just can't find
Love it seems I just can't find
Seems that I'm the one love
The one love left behind

I've searched it just won't come my way
I've searched it just won't come my way
It's love that I want now
So what more can I say

Women seem to pass me by
Women seem to pass me by
If I could find the reason
I'd know the answer why

Love it seems I just can't find
Love it seems I just can't find
Seems that I'm the one love
The one love left behind


7. IN MY CHAIR

I saw her talking, now
My ears were burning
Her feet startet walking, now
They started turning
My eyes were half open
But she didn't see me there
We ran along, walking 'cross the roof-tops
In my chair

Had a car in my pocket
And we started moving
A man in a helmet said
"What's that you're using"
My eyes were half open
But we didn't see him there
Put the car back in my pocket
And I'm still here in my chair

My teeth were laughing, now
We couldn't stop smiling
We danced to the Mystery Band
Without even trying
My eyes were half open
But we didn't see them there
We ran along, walking 'cross the roof-tops
In my chair


8. TUNE TO THE MUSIC

Excuse me crying
Can't you hear what I'm saying
I guess I'm going
Going on my way.
I know there's something
Something's going wrong now
There's no tune to the music

My eyes are burning
Can't anybody hear me
My head is turning
I need somebody near me
But since you wonder
Everything is so wrong
There's tune to the music

The sounds are ringing
The emptiness is all mine.
Nobody bringing
The thing to make me feel fine
I know there's something
Something's going wrong now
There's no tune to the music
No words to my song


9. APRIL,SPRING,SUMMER, AND WEDNESDAYS

I can't leave, but I won't stay here
If I stay, I still won't be here
I am the grass upon which she lays
April spring summer and Wednesdays
I am the hand which feeds her always
Iam the bed upon which she plays

Nah, na na nah, na na nah-ah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah-ah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah

I can't leave, but I won't stay here
If I stay, I still won't be here
I am the feathers in her pillow
Anywhere I hide, she knows, I know
I am the sunshine through her window
Anywhere I go, she goes, we go

Nah, na na nah, na na nah-ah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah-ah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah

I can't leave, but I won't stay here
If I stay, I still won't be here
I am the grass upon which she lays
April spring summer and Wednesdays
I am the hand which feeds her always
Iam the bed upon which she plays

Nah, na na nah, na na nah-ah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah-ah
Nah, na na nah, na na nah


10. MEAN GIRL

Now I'm a sad one, and she was a bad one
A mean, mean girl
I never had one as greedy as that one
A mean, mean girl

Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more

She was a big one, a met-at-a-gig once
A mean, mean girl
I felt a sick one, she was a quick one
A mean, mean girl

Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more

Now I'm a sad one, and she was a bad one
A mean, mean girl
I never had one as greedy as that one
A mean, mean girl

Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more

Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more


11. SPINNING WHEEL BLUES

Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night
Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night
Well, red twenty-seven didn't do me right

Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down
Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down
Well, now that I'm a poor man, I got no frends around

I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill
I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill
I need a whole lotta money so I can pay my bills

Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags And go
Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags And go
I had to leave my home town, 'cos they don't want me no more
