[Intro]
Ooh yeah,
Oh yeah
Down low (Down low, Down low)

[Verse 1]
Only darkest evenin's
Only darkest nights
Secretive reaction
To all the fussin fights
Keep a strong appearance
In the light of day
Blinded in the darkroom
Reachin for a way

[Chorus]
Keepin it hush
(keep it hush keep it hush)
Nobody gotta know
(No one need to know)
In the shadowed moments
Never let it show
(never let it show)
In the secret places
Hands know where to go
Never seein faces
On the Down low (Down low)

[Verse 2]
Catch a boi jus lookin
Shawty ain't concerned
Ignorance won't hurt her
Where my head gets turned
He is jus a shadow
It don't mean a thing
Jus a bit o playin
Shawty got my ring

[Chorus]
Keepin it hush
(keep it hush keep it hush)
Nobody gotta know
(No one need to know)
In the shadowed moments
Never let it show

In the secret places

Never seein faces
On the Down low (Down low

[Bridge]

[verse 1]
(Look at me now)
I was invisible when I was your girl
(Look at me now)
Why you still tryna get me back in your world

[Chorus]
My heart ain’t broken
But I have learned
To see the signs, and go,
‘fore I get burned
And to the next guy
Who wants to try
I’ve seen it all befo’
Don’t waste my time

[verse 2]
(Look at me now)
I’m livin like a superstar
(Look at me now)
I ain’t thinkin ‘bout you or where you are

[chorus]
My heart ain’t broken
But I have learned
To see the signs, and go,
‘fore I get burned
And to the next guy
Who wants to try
I’ve seen it all befo’
Don’t waste my time

[instrumental with Spanish guitar]

[bridge]
These boys all on me
They want me bad
I see you watchin, thinkin
all ‘bout what you had
All o’ your lies
The truth still hurts
I can’t go back this time
I’m gonna put me first

[chorus]
My heart ain’t broken
But I have learned
To see the signs, and go,
‘fore I get burned
And to the next guy
Who wants to try

Don’t waste my time

[chorus]
My heart ain’t broken
But I have learned
To see the signs, and go,
‘fore I get burned
And to the next guy
Who wants to try
I’ve seen it all befo’
Don’t waste my time

[Spoken words in Southern female voice]
"Well, hey there, honey! Why don't you let me tell y'all a lil story...."

[Catchy musical intro]

[Verse 1]
Well Mr Right Now, he was older than me, Spontaneous as hell, like my phillosophy
One night in the club, he was a-grabbin my
friends
And when we went home, he was at it again
The back room was bolted, somethin' must have been wrong
I found him half-naked with my best friend's Mom!

[Chorus]
Puttin on my best dress,
A wink and a smile.
I'm goin' honky-tonkin, I ain't been in a while!
I'm only window shoppin, ain’t no harm in it.
Need me a new man cos, Lord! this guy's the limit!

[Spoken words in southern female voice]
"Well, y'all might think that wasn't exactly an auspicious start to our relationship, but listen up, Honey! It gets way worse!"

[Verse 2]
I took him out to Momma's, to meet the family
Caught him with my cousin and I asked him to leave
But when I ran outside to have a little cry
I caught him in the backyard with some random passer by!

[Verse 3]
I figured it was time for us to have a little chat
Told him I don't 'preciate him treatin' me like that
Chasin all the girls, he’s hotter than a skillet,
But I don't need that in my life!, This guy's the limit!

[Chorus]
Puttin on my best dress,
A wink and a smile.
I'm goin' honky-tonkin, I ain't been in a while!
I'm only window shoppin, ain’t no harm in it.
Need me a new man cos, Lord! this guy's the limit!

[Spoken words in southern female voice]
"Anyways, I couldn't get him to see sense, so I kicked his sorry butt to the curb. But then yesterday, outta the blue, he turned up on my front porch!"

[Verse 4]
Beggin' and a-pleadin' me to take him in,
Told me he was sorry, feelin' guilty as sin
But when I took him back, within a hot minute,
He was messaging some blonde! This guy's the limit!

[Bridge]
This guy's the limit
And the limit's been breached
I've been so very patient
But the end has been reached
Now it’s the final straw, the one
That broke the camel's back
This guy's the limit alright
So I'm helpin him pack! (Lord yes!)

[Chorus]
Puttin on my best dress,
A wink and a smile.
I'm goin' honky-tonkin, I ain't been in a while!
I'm only window shoppin, ain’t no harm in it.
Need me a new man cos, Lord! this guy's the limit!

[Music stops]

[Spoken words in southern female accent]
"This guy's the limit, alright. And he's gone!"

"This guy's the limit, alright. And he's gone!"

Sometimes after nightfall I sneak quietly out the house.
And walk on over to our swimmin' pool.
And in the dim green light there are no other eyes to see,
How two once - lovin' arms became so cruel.

There's reasons why I can't bathe like most folks by light of day.
And each of them is written on my skin.
The bruises come in many shades, from indigo to gray.
There's never been a fight that I could win.

[With backing singers]
He used to love me, yes I'm sure, he said the sweetest things,
Our love was true, but withered on the vine.
And then those two once-lovin' arms, well they became so cruel.
And now I'm like a shadow most the time.

[Softly]
I try to just be quiet and to stay out of his way,
It doesn't take a lot to make him mad.
Sometimes I think I have the strength to up 'n' run away.
But then remember happy times we had.

[With backing singers]
The little whirlpools growin' outward from my fingertips,
As through the ripples I draw back my hand.
Remind me how he'd spin me round an' kiss me on the lips
And how our married life was once so very grand.

[Musical Break]

And so I'm gonna change things now, I finally saw the light ,
That love should never leave you black and blue .
I'm gonna step outside and walk right past the pool tonight,
And climb into a cab and start anew.

[With backing singers]
He used to love me, yes I'm sure, he said the sweetest things.
Our love was true, somehow it lost its way.
And so those two once lovin' arms, well they became so cruel.
And now I'm livin' somewhere far away.

[Softly, with emotion]
I wonder if he misses me, or thinks of me at all?
Regrets the many times he raised his hand?
He's just an ugly bully, insignificant and small.
I'm glad I got the strength to leave that man.

He didn't love me, now I'm sure, although he said sweet things,
To think I stayed so long, I was a fool.
I think he must have always been that way, he didn't change.
Those arms were never lovin', they were cruel.

[outro]

[Verse 1]
Ellen worked at Dollar Point,
A waitress, in a burger joint,
Her nails were done to match her scarlet smile.
Her name embroidered on her dress,
She worked all day until I guess,
She thought she might as well go out in style.

[Verse 2]
She strode out to the front of store,
And threw her apron on the floor,
I swear that this is what I heard her say,
You know there's more to life than Truckee,
And right now I'm feeling lucky.
She climbed into her car, and drove away.

[Verse 3]
Now Ellen always was the kind,
To have no plan, and pay no mind,
We wondered at the life that she had made.
She didn't have the husband or,
The babies crawling on the floor,
The house on Ponderosa Palisades.

[Verse 4]
But Truckee had become a cage,
And for a single girl her age,
Escaping was the only thing to do.
And so that was the last we saw,
Of Ellen for a year or more,
But then we got a letter out the blue.

[Verse 5]
Well, she wrote that she was doin' fine,
Jus' livin' life an' passin' time,
An' meetin' folks, an' drivin' shore to shore,
Her home’s a purple Microbus
She says she often thinks of us,
But couldn’t stay in this old town no more.

[Bridge]
Some folks say she up n ran
Escapin' life, the kids, the man,
The big ol' house to which we all aspired
But Ellen made the perfect choice
To up n leave, to find her voice
This small town Truckee livin' gets you tired.

[Verse 6]
And though it pains me yet to say,
I feel some envy every day,
I'm jealous of the freedom Ellen found.
'Cause there's more to life than Truckee,
And I wish I was that lucky,
But I'm never gonna bust out of this town.

[Verse 7]
You see, I thought that I was doing good,
To find a fancy neighbourhood,
And make a home, and raise a kid or two.
We had the car, we had the life,
The perfect husband, lovely wife,
The bills, the debts, the money worries too.

[Verse 8]
We built our cage, and I believe,
That now there is no way to leave,
This Truckee life, well it'll have to do.
So girl, you had the right idea, to get the hell away from here,
But stop along next time you’re passing through.

[Pause]

[Outro]
Some folks say she up n ran
Escapin' life, the kids, the man,
The big ol' house to which we all aspired
But Ellen made the perfect choice
To up n leave, to find her voice
This small town Truckee livin' gets you tired.
[Fade to Silence]

Dyin' of the flame
Drops of silver rain
Brings an achin' pain
Summer's on the wane.

[Verse 1]
Seasons drawing to a close,
We're blowing like a breeze.
Headed for the winds of change,
And floatin' 'cross the seas.

[Verse 2]
Summer held a lifetime's love,
Within her golden trance,
Ridin' on the clouds above,
In never ending dance.

[Verse 3]
It carries us so far away,
To leave the sun behind.
Autumn with her bright display,
Will help you ease your mind.

[Chorus]
Summer held the truest love,
It seeped in like the sun.
Streakin' light from up above,
The summer isn't done.

[Verse 4]
Pouring in like honey through
The windows and the doors.
Rushing of the warmest winds,
Regenerates our cores.

[Verse 5]
Summer drawing to a close,
We're blowing like a breeze.
Headin for the winds of change,
And floatin' 'cross the seas.

[Verse 6]
Summer held a lifetimes' love,
Within her golden trance.
Ridin' on the clouds above,
In never ending dance.

[Verse 7]
It carries us so far away,
And leaves the sun behind.
Autumn an' her bright display,
Will help you ease your mind.

[Bridge]
Rollin' summer seas
Fallin' autumn leaves
How this heart just grieves
Blowin' like a breeze.

[Chorus]
Summer held the truest love,
It seeped in like the sun.
Streakin' ight from up above,
The summer isn't done.

[Bridge/Outro]
Rollin' summer seas
Fallin' autumn leaves
How this heart just grieves
Blowin' like a breeze.
[Fade to silence]
