Joe Bonamassa Album

You sit in your big house baby
you drive your fancy car
you treat me like I'm not there
but I guess that's who you are
*I'm on the bridge to better days
better days are coming now
tired of asking all my friends
please help me once more
this old life that I'm leading
got me down the floor
*I'm on the bridge to better days
better days are coming now
better days are coming now
better days are coming now
gonna be a matter of time
you know the sun will rise
used to say it was in my head
I was led along instead
I'm on the bridge to better days
better days are coming now
better days are coming now
better days are coming now
ohhhhhhh

My throat is dry
My knees are weak
It's so damned hot
I can't even speak

Walk in my shadow
I can't take it anymore
When I get you in the shadows
I gonna show you what it's for

Yes, I know baby
That's a shady kind of deal
I just want to find out
How you feel

Walk in my shadow
I ain't gonna take it anymore, oh yes
When I get you in the shadows
I'm gonna give you what's in store, yes I am

Yes, I know you say, I'm stupid
It just wouldn't be cool
Well, I can tell you baby that I
I ain't no fool

Walk in my shadow
I can't take it anymore
When I get you in the shadows
I'm gonna lay you on the floor

When I get you in the shadows
I'm gonna give you what's in store
Yeah

So many roads
So many trains to ride

So many roads
So many trains to ride

I'm gonna find my baby
Before I'll be satisfied

I was standing at my window
When I heard that whistle blow

I was standing at my window
When I heard that whistle blow

I thought it was a straight line
But it was B & O

It was a mean old fireman
And a cruel engineer

It was a mean old fireman
And a cruel engineer

That took my baby
And left me standing here

So many roads
So many trains to ride

So many roads
So many trains to ride

I'm gonna find my baby
Before I'll be satisfied

West on 80 and it won't take too long,
‘Til the road starts climbing up to mountain time.

The girl I know there, she lives free and easy,
And she shows me wonders and she takes my mind.

Be like you baby,
I wanna be there
To settle on up about my life

And that girl is waiting, but she won't wait too long,
Drove all night to that clear blue sky.

And she's wild as eagles,
She's as sweet as honeysuckle,
Her life's flowing like a mountain stream.

And she takes me somewhere,
And it's good to be there,

And she pulls me into her bright golden wing.
Bright golden wing.

West on 80 and it won't take too long,
‘Til the road starts climbing up to mountain time.

The girl I know there, she lives free and easy,
And she shows me wonders and she takes my mind.

And she's wild as eagles,
She's as sweet as honeysuckle,
Her life's flowing like a mountain stream.

And she takes me somewhere,
And it's good to be there,
And she pulls me into her bright golden wing.

I can feel it in the wind blow
I can feel love flow
And Ill be there when the morning comes, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.

Another Kind of Woman , Another Kind of Love

Sloe Gin, sloe Gin
Tryin' to wash away the pain inside
Well I'm sick and I'm all done in
And I'm standing in the rain
And I feel like I'm gonna cry

I'm so damn lonely
And I ain't even high
I'm so damn lonely
And I feel like I'm gonna die

Mayday, mayday I've been shot down
Over the stormy sea
Well I feel that I'm drifting away
Can not seem to get a grip on me
Well. I can't even try

I'm so damn lonely
Ain't even high
I hate to go home alone,
But what else is new?
I'm so damn lonely

I hate to go home alone,
But what else is new?
I'm so damn lonely…

You stand and bleeding people pass me by
No matter if you live
No matter if you die

Sloe Gin, sloe Gin
Tryin' to wash away the pain inside
Well I'm sick and I'm all done in
I'm standing in the rain
And I feel like I'm gonna cry

I'm so damn lonely
Ain't even high
I'm so damn lonely…

One of these days boy , i'm gonna see my woman
I'm gonna see my children , children on their knee
Gonna run up to my woman , and hold her in my arms
With tears in her eyes , she said i'm glad you're free

She's coming down the road boy , i said she's coming down the road
She's got her Red dress on , yeah she's got her Red dress on
She's coming down the road boy , with her bags down low
Said she's coming down the road boy , she's got her bags down low , hey yeah

Oh One of these days , i'll be coming home soon girl , i'll be coming on home
One of these days boy , i'll be coming on home

One of these days boy , i'm gonna see my baby
Gonna see my baby , coming down the road
Gonna have my Pardon , Pardon in her Apron oh Lord
Wanna see The Governer , she said Release my Man

Hey One of these days , i'll be coming home soon girl , i'll be coming on home
I'll be coming down the road boy , with my bags down low
One of these days boy , i'll be coming on home

I wanna go there , I wanna climb
Now i don't know about no law , i don't see no crime
Ain't no reason , ain't no rest
I wanna get down to the woman and get undressed

And i can't stand it , i can't stand it
I can't wait to see them walls falling down

Tell me Jesus , why they run
Is it by the weight of the woman , the weight of the gun
Got 15 minutes now , and i just don't care
I'm gonna take this off and ready when i get there

And i can't stand it , and i can't stand it
I can't wait to see them walls falling down
And i can't stand it , i can't stand it
I can't wait to see them walls falling down

No where tomorrow , a sunday rhyme
You know all good things come in there due time
Put The Ball Peen Hammer , Right Thru That Door
And i don't pretend to understand no more

I can't stand it , and i can't stand it
I can't wait to see them walls falling down
I can't stand it , i can't stand it
I can't wait to see them walls falling down

I wish you could see me
All broken down this way
But even if you saw me, baby
I know I still couldn't make you stay
Couldn't make you stay

You know about the high cost of loving
But someday, someday
You're gonna have to pay
Gonna have to pay

Oh, a woman like you needs fine things
And I knew it from the start
And I don't have much to offer
Just this old broken heart, hey baby
Just this old broken heart
But if heartaches were nickels
I wouldn't be here crying in the dark

If wine and pills were hundred dollar
bills, I might keep you satisfied
And if broken dreams were limousines
I might take you for a ride

And all I can do is think of you
And wish you were here by my side
Yes, if heartaches were nickels
I'd be the richest fool alive

If wine and pills were hundred dollar
bills, I might keep you satisfied
Oh if broken dreams were limousines
I might take you for a ride

But all I can do is think of you
And wish you were here by my side
Oh, if heartaches were nickels
I'd be the richest fool alive
I'd be the richest fool alive

Woke up dreaming,
I was gonna die.
Woke up dreaming,
I was gonna die.
‘Cause my baby said her,
Said her last goodbyes.

Reached out for her,
And she was not there.
Reached out for her,
And she was not there.
Lord I miss her body,
And her long brown hair.

Heart rate fallin' - river flood,
Black cat bawlin' - moon drippin' blood.
Woke up dreamin', I was gonna die.
All my sins abound me,
It's my turn to cry.
Yeah...

(Pickin' Break)

Devil's risin',
You don't have a chance.
Devil's risin',
You don't have a chance.
Where there's fiddles playin',
Shake your bones and dance.

I just want to,
Live another day.
I just want to,
Live another day.
See that brown-haired woman,
Comin' back this way.
Oh Yeah...

I just got paid today,
got me a pocket full of change.
Said, I just got paid today,
got me a pocket full of change.
If you believe like workin' hard all day,
just step in my shoes and take my pay.

I was born my papa's son,
when I hit the ground I was on the run.
I had one glad hand and the other behind.
You can have yours, just give me mine.
When the houd dog barkin' in the black of the night,
stick my hand in my pocket, everything's all right.

I just got paid today,
got me a pocket full of change.
Said, black sheep, black, do you got some wool?
Yes, I do, man, my bag is full.
It's the root of evil and you know the rest
but it's way ahead of what's second best.

Well there's high water everywhere
Lord the river overflows
Well there's high water everywhere
Lord the river overflows

You go where its high boy
Down to hill country road
Still the water was rising
I been sinking down

Man, that water was rising
At all places around
Where the fifty men and children, come to sink and drown
Now we're looking at New Orleans, where the crest stood high

Nobody said it was rising, one more time silver lie
Should move up much higher, before I sink and die

If i get to heaven
the first thing i'll do
before I meet my maker
I'm gonna ask around for you

all of heaven gotta know
your beauty ever true
I'll tap an angel on the shoulder
and I'll be asking around for you

I'm sure you've found a place up there
where we all can sit and talk a while
play some cards and drink black coffee
How I'd love to see you smile

If I get to heaven
and I'm praying that I do
I'll be the first thing I do
I'll tap an angel on the shoulder
and I'll be asking around for you

I'm sure you found a place up there
where we all can sit and talk a while
play some cards and drink black coffee
I'd love to see you smile

If I get to heaven now
oh I'm praying that I do
I'll be the first thing I do
I'll tap an angel on the shoulder
and I'll be asking around for you
I'll tap an angel on the shoulder
and I'll be asking around for you
