It was a moonless night
Not a star in the sky
No one around
But you...and I
On the back porch
Bathed in candlelight
Neighbors fast asleep
Dreams in their eyes
Our bellies full
From all that cabbage stew
Than a'rumblin' began
From that devil’s brew
Oh ...
I used to wonder what it'd take to prove this truth
I used to wonder how to make a mark
But now I know now how simple that it really is
Nothing says I love you
like farting
in the dark
song
Cold Tequila
We drank
cold tequila
on a simmering summer night
We went
skinny dipping in the river
under stars a-shining bright
We lost
innocence and inexperience
just trying to get it right
Desperate youth
and cold tequila
on an endless summer night
I saw you in the parking lot
of the Town & Country store
Riding shotgun with your girlfriends
in a dusty, rusty Ford
Your hair was blowing out the window
Your smile an acre wide
I chased you down to invite you all
to go swimming with us that night
We drank
cold tequila
on a simmering summer night
We went
skinny dipping in the river
under stars a-shining bright
We lost
innocence and inexperience
just trying to get it right
Desperate youth
and cold tequila
On an endless summer night
You showed up close to twilight
with cold tequila and warm beer
We listened to No Fences
And we hollered and we cheered
Billy built a bonfire
Right on the pebbly shore
The reflection in your eyes
Left me hoping for a kiss or more
When you handed me the bottle
and said that you was having fun
I knew you’d be my only girl
Until our days were done
We drank
cold tequila
on a simmering summer night
We went
skinny dipping in the river
under stars a-shining bright
We lost
innocence and inexperience
just trying to get it right
Desperate youth
and cold tequila
on an endless summer night
The night it ended far too soon
It was time to get on home
As you piled into your pickup
Said I’d call you on the phone
Watched your taillights as they disappeared
down the dark two-laned highway
I could taste your lip gloss just a bit
And my memories replayed us
drinking
cold tequila
on a simmering summer night
skinny dipping in the river
under stars a-shining bright
losing
innocence and inexperience
just trying to get it right
Desperate youth
Cold tequila
Long gone summer nights
The Only Secret That I Know
I never knew a sweeter melody
Than the one that called me home
I never knew the mind of god
Except when I was stoned
I never knew the rain would fall
Until the drops darkened my coat
Now I’m telling you a secret
The only secret that I know
I never felt the rocky path
Underneath me when I roamed
I never thought to hold your hand
While you were standing close
I can’t forget the way you looked
Traveling down that road
So now I’m telling you a secret
The only secret that I know
I never had a single care
I never stopped, I never slowed
I never wanted anything
Except to hear you say, “Don’t go”
I never shed a single tear
Least that’s how the story goes
And now I’m telling you a secret
The only secret that I know
And the Gang
Zack Sang, I wanna wear your skin
Zack Sang, oh won’t you let me in
Zack Sang, don’t ya tell me no
Zack Sang, you’re on my radio-o-o
Late night, I hear your grating voice
Damn right, what I listen to’s my choice
But Zack Sang, I wanna make a man-suit outta you-oo-oo
Hoo-hoo
So Zack Sang, let me wear your skin
Oh, Zack Sang, now the bleedin’ begins
Zack Sang, you’re my only one
Zack Sang, don’t it sound like fuh-uh-un
At night, driving around town
Ain’t right, the goofy way you sound
Oh, Zack Sang, I’m gonna wear the hell outta you-oo-oo
Hoo-hoo
Yeah Zack Sang, I’m gonna wear the hell outta you
Oo oo oo
Zack Sang
Gonna wear-air you
Zack Sang
Oo oo oo
Zack Sang
Oo oo oo
Yeah, Zack Sang
Zack Sang Zack Sang Zack Sang
Roman’s Song
I don’t have feelings
I just have legs*
That carry me away from
Carry me away from
Carry me away from you
Cause I’m cold
And I’m hard,
And I’m afraid
And I’m told
I tear apart
Those in my wake
I do have something
Deep down inside
That I can never share with
Still can never share with
Can never ever share with you
Yes, I’m told
I tear apart
Those in my wake
‘Cause I’m cold
And I’m hard
And I’m afraid
I don’t have feelings
I just have legs
That always bring me back to
Always bring me back to
Always bring me back to you.
