Song for Ruby-Ann

so let me eat when there is food at my table
let me drink when this old throat's a little dry
dollars i'll make while i am young and able
religion ain't for me babe, maybe when i die
maybe when i die, i'll see the gods up in the skies.
and livin' ain't a fickle, a fickle thing
it shakes and rattles ya like a ship at sea
lovin' is much the same - a ragin' war
oh no it ain't a game of that i'm sure
but we play it anyway, as we stare pleading to the skies.
when Ruby comes around i forget everything
oh yeah she climbs the mast and she makes me wanna sing
oh yeah she makes me sing to the gods i've never seen.
to the gods i've never seen.

(i still, i - oh yeah i think that's it)
i still see her fingering the keys
trying to work that pretty melody
i still see her fingering the keys
trying to put that troubled mind to ease
oh marie
you know i don't care where it is that you're going to
oh marie
you know i don't care where it is that you been
for so long, so long, so long marie
yeah marie
but honey knows i don't chase the fame
yeah she knows i don't chase no fame
and even if i did i'd still be calling her name
yeah even if i did i'd still be calling her name
and i still wake up in a cold hard sweat
from when my baby's eyes they filled with regrets
yeah i still wake up in a cold, hard sweat
from when my baby she up and left
oh marie
where was it exactly you were going to?
oh marie
why was it that you had to leave
so soon, so soon, so soon, Marie?
oh marie
but honey knows i ain't playing games
she knows that i don't play the game
and even if i did i'd still be calling her name
yeah even if i did i'd still be calling her name
but honey knows that i don't play the game
yeah she knows that i don't play no games
and even if i did i'd still be calling her name
yeah even if i did i'd still be calling her name.

Kinda Funny

it was just a short walk from your house to mine
remember honey how you used to wanna do it all the time?
and that suited me just fine
yeah i thought that that was fine
you cut a fine figure dancing 'round the bedroom in your dressing gown
kinda funny on the same day you said you couldn't stick around
and i know that you're not asking
but i suppose i've been doing fine
you always said it's how you frame your mind
but i know there's no changing mine
so if you get to asking babe
i guess i'll say i've been doing fine.

old train driver

i need to, need to, see my, my girl
old train driver man

my girl listens out for the pretty train sound
i wonder if she still wants her man around
her man around

old train driver man
just keep goin'
my girl said she needs, needs to
be alone
yeah old trainer driver man
just head on home
i now got no place to, a-to be goin'
my girl listens out for that dirty train sound
i wonder if another man she has found
