I see a fence grow across the sea
I see her face and she looks like me
Will you hear my guilty plea?
Or have you come to set me free?
Find myself a city to live in
Find myself a shotgun shack
Find myself a new way of thinkin'
Then I ain't never comin' back
Find myself a new banker
Find myself an old medicine show
I'll find enemy I can be proud of
I'll plant a great big lawn to mow.
American Dream
What does it mean?

Happy Songs Come
Happy Songs Go
There ain't no happy songs in
my radio
Where have they gone?
Its been so long.
I just need to find a song that
Ain't done me wrong.
It must be broken
There must be something wrong
You must be joking
This can't go on
Happy Songs Come
Happy Songs Go
Can't find no happy songs in
my radio
I looked inside,
And I cried.
I looked around the corner
For a place to hide
Happy songs must be somewhere
In the air.
They must be up there
Only God knows where
Happy Songs Come
Happy Songs Go
There ain't no happy songs inside
my radio
No there ain't no happy songs
inside my radio

Winter in New Orleans
Winter in New Orleans, worst week of the year.
All the people on the block they somehow disappear
Old lady next door, just keeps dyin’
And everybody else, just quit tryin’
Winter in New Orleans, all the neighbors live in fear.
What if that old sun don’t never reappear
At least up in Muskegon, no illusions about the season
About the reasons for suffering months on end
Down here on this river, we’re holdin’ hard to our sliver
Looks like we’ll break here on this bend.
[Solo]
Winter in New Orleans, worst week of the year.
All the neighbors on the block they somehow disappear
Old lady got the cancer, you know she tells me every day
Ain’t nothin’ nobody can do to make it go away.
That’s how I feel babe, in the end
Ain’t nothin’ left of me or this bottle of gin.
Winter in New Orleans, all the neighbors live in fear.
What if that old sun don’t never reappear
