Gotta Go Anyway
Sun comes up in the morning and shakes me in my bed
There`s an ache in my body, cloud in my head
Don`t want to get up, face another day
But I know I`m gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I`m gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I´m gonna go anyway

Drag myself up and slap some water on my face
Feel like I´m running last in the human race
They say life´s a game, well I don`t wanna play
But I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I'm gonna go anyway

Slop down some caffeine and I walk out to my truck
Is it gonna start today? Or will it just give up?
Don`t say nothin' to no one, I got nothin' to say
And I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I`m gonna go anyway

Drive down to work thinkin' 'bout what the future's gonna bring
I'm lookin ahead, Don't see anything
I'd buy my way outta here but I don't know who to pay
But I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I`m gonna go anyway

If had a middle name, I think it woud be ''Strife''
I'm tired of livin' Too chicken to give up life
Well they say everything's gonna come to end some day
And I know I'm gonna go anyway.
Yeah I know I'm gonna go anyway
Yeah I know I`m gonna go anyway

Tantas Maldades

A veces quiero romper a cantar
Otras veces tengo que llorar
Es difícil cantar en un mundo tan mala
Tantas maldades

A veces me asombra la bella naturaleza
Otras veces me sobrecoge la tristeza
Es dificil gozar en un mundo tan mala
Tantas maldades

No me diga que su politica es la solución
Con tanta guerra y la destrucción
Tantas maldades

Una madre manda su hijo comprar pan y leche
Hay soldados , gritos....no regrese
Es dificil cantar en un mundo tan mala
Tantas maldades

Dos novios caminando .. su amor florece
Hay trueno, balazos...
Su amor desaparece
Es dificil gozar en un mundo tan mala
Tantas maldades

No me diga que la respuesta es su religión
Con tantas mentiras y desilusiòn
Tantas maldades
(cambio de melodia pero en mismo ritmo
con convicción)
Pero seguiré cantando
Porque sigo esperando
Mi deseo por paz arde
Y Sigo a pesar de
Tantas maldades

THAT´S WHY TOMORROW

I won your gold ribbons in your golden town
It was a pretty big party untill it died down
But I had a purpose and I will carry it on
That´s why tomorrow people I´ll be gone

You sold your freedom to pay off your fear
That´s why i´m not cryin´ not one little tear
I have a purpose and I will carry it on
You can be here tomorrow but I´ll be gone

The truth swirls around you like a river in flood
You´re stuck to your lies like the rocks in the mud
Now I have a purpose and I will carry it on
Thats why tomorrow people I´ll be gone

Now you want to tell me everything that I aint
Well I am a sinner and I´m not a saint
But I have a purpose and I will carry on
That´s why tomorrow people I´ll be gone

Its been a struggle to keep free from the mess
And I have to keep fighting to conquer my flesh
Now I have a purpose and I will carry it on
Thats why tomorrow people Ill be gone

You sold your freedom to pay off your fear
That´s why tomorrow people you´ll still be here
But I have a purpose and I will carry on
That´s why tomorrow , .....I´ll be gone

The Last Time You Say, ¨Oh My God¨

You wake up in the morning and somethings not right
It´s the middle of the morning and it´s dark as night
You look out the window to see what´s so odd.
And it´s the last time you say, "Oh My God"

Outside your house in the darkened dawn
Neighbors lying dead out on the lawn
People hugging together like peas in a pod
And it´s the last time you say, "Oh My God"

What was it they said when they came to your door?
Something ´bout Jesus coming in some final war
You put your hands together and as your head starts to nod
It´s the last time you say, "Oh My God"

You look out the window and shake your head
The moon is still out and the sun is blood red
Buildings are smashed like with an iron rod
And it´s the last time you say "Oh My God"

You telephones dead your cell doesnt connect
Sitting there by the window you have to reflect
You think maybe it´s a good time to pray
But "Oh My God" is all you can say

What was it they said when they came to your door?
Something ´bout Jesus coming in some final war
You put your hands together and as your head starts to nod
It´ll be the last time you say, "Oh My God"

THE BACKOO BOYS
Me and my little brother Joe
Decided it was time to go
We had enough of life out on the farm

We got our best friends Bill and Cy
Kissed our moms and dads goodbye
We left and never meant to do no harm

But now we're runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
They`re following for sure
And we'll be runnin' and runnin` and runnin'
Til we just can't run anymore

On the road we laughed and sang
Called ourselves the Backoo gang
Cause Backoo was the place where we came from

We hit Tombstone on the fly
Braggin' 'bout the things we'd buy
We got wine an' whiskey and we got guns

But now we're runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
They`re followin for sure
And we'll be runnin' and runnin` and runnin'
Til we just can't run anymore

We spent our money makin' noise
'' All for one'' the ''Backoo Boys''
Decided to rob a bank , see how we'd fare
The sherrif shot my brother down
Before we hit the edge of town
I kept ridin' I was just too scared.

And then we were runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
They were followin' for sure
And we'll be runnin' and runnin` and runnin'
Til we just can't run anymore

When we got a ways ahead
I could see Cy's shirt was red
And he was holdin' to his side
We could see that he'd been hit
We tried to get him down to sit
Soon as he touched the ground he died

And then we were runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
They were followin' for sure
And we'll be runnin' and runnin` and runnin'
Til we just can't run anymore

Bill said he was going home
That I'd have to ride alone
He was gonna see his folks before he died
I watched him ride on outta sight
My heart was numb my throat was tight
I just got off my horse and cried

Then I was runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
They're followin' for sure
And I'll be runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
Til I just can't run anymore

(change in tempo for dramatic emphasis)
So listen all you hardheaded children
With your name and your gang and your gun(pause)
You better learn how to hate (pause)
You better learn to shoot straight (pause)
And then you better learn how to run

(optional )
'Cause you'll be Runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
They'll be followin' for sure
And you'll be be runnin' and runnin' and runnin'
Til you just can't run anymore

Where the passion howls like a storm in me
and I love you when the storm is gone
Always love you my dear one

Clouds are golden and the day is done
The sea is calm and my heart is too
Everything beauriful makes me think of you

How much I love you, your heart knows
And I will love you til this life is done
Always love you my dear one

I´m The Kind Of Guy
guitar backup med temp
vocals medium tempo

(open with chorus)
I´m the kind of guy that likes to speak his mind
I´ve got something to say almost all the time
But sometimes I´ll act deaf, dumb amd blind
´Cause I´d rather seem a fool than be unkind

I´m tired of hearing about these people that kill
Men, women and children and tell me it´s God´s will
But you can´t argue with a madman, no baby it´s not cool
They just keep on killing truth and melting down the golden rule

chorus

Yeah I´m thinking about moving, moving far, far away from here
Far from the train wrecks the plane wrecks, car wrecks, whiskey, drugs and beer
Yeah you can run, yeah run as far as you can
But you´ll never get away from your fellow man

chorus

They say in this world all our speech should be free
But tell it like it is and you´re the enemy
So don´t sing about the truth what you know and what you fear
The board of directors will put an end to your career

chorus

(more intense)
Now theres something I want to tell you, I´ve wanted to tell you for a long ,long time
play verse .......................................................................................................................
well nevermind.....

AINT NO RABBITS ´ROUND (SILVER LIE)

It´s a cold... cold... winter, snow is falling down
I´m hunting for my dinner on this reservation ground
They took my gun when they took my son 3 long years ago
And they left me here without a spear no arrows and no bow

They put my son in a white man´s school Put him in a suit and a tie
They say they´re gonna teach him a golden rule
But they´re teachin him a silver lie

I´m going up to whitey´s store buy me a bottle and a cup
Of that white man whiskey water only thing that warms me up
Hey whitey won´t you trade me for this beautiful beaded hide
Last thing my wife and daughter made for me on the trail where they both died

Thay put my son in a white man´s school
Teachin him to read and write
But they don´t let him write to me
And I can´t sleep at night

They tell my son forget where you came from and whitey gonna take you in
He can´t forget where he came from any more than he can change his skin
They tell my son forget where you came from ..you forget where you came from
They can´t see his heart still beats to the rythm of his grandfather´s drum

We´ll never forget where we came from never in a million years
And if you wanna see where we came from
Just follow my trail of tears

It´s a cold,.. cold winter white flakes fallin down
I´m out hunting for my dinner but there aint no rabbits ´round
