I was born in the desert
I been down for years
Jesus, come closer
I think my time is near
And I've travelled over
Dry earth and floods
Hell and high water
To bring you my love
Climbed over mountains
Travelled the sea
Cast down off heaven
Cast down on my knees
I've lain with the devil
Cursed god above
Forsaken heaven
To bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love
I know he's gonna be here
You know he's gonna be here
Yeah alright
Forsaking heaven
Curse god above
Lay with the devil
Bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love

Working For The Man
In the night I look for love
Get my strength from the man above
God of piston, god of steel
God is here behind the wheel
I'm just working
For the man
Pretty things get in my car
Take them flying, it's not far
Take in handsome, take in me
Look good in my steel machine
I'm just working
For the man
Don't you know yet who I am?
Working harder for the man
Go around I'm doing good
Get my strength from the man above
I'm just working
For the man
I'm just doing
What I can
Go around I'm doing good
Go around I'm doing good
C'mon Billy
C'mon Billy
Come to me
You know I'm waiting
I love you endlessly
C'mon Billy
You're the only one
Don't you think it's time now
You met your only son

Lover's play
The corn was gold and
We lay in it for days
I remember
The things you said
My little Billy,
Come to your lover's bed
Come home
Is my plea
Your home now is
Here with me
Come home
To your son
Tomorrow might never come

Damn thing went crazy
But I swear you're the only one
Come along, Billy, come to me
Come along, Billy, come to me

Down By The Water
I lost my heart
Under the bridge
To that little girl
So much to me
And now I moan
And now I holler
She'll never know
Just what I found
That blue eyed girl
She said "no more"
That blue eyed girl
Became blue eyed whore
Down by the water
I took her hand
Just like my daughter
I'll see her again
Oh help me Jesus
Come through this storm
I had to lose her
To do her harm
I heard her holler
I heard her moan
My lovely daughter
I took her home
Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water.
Come back here, man, gimme my daughter.
Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water.
Come back here, man, gimme my daughter.
I Think I'm A Mother
You think you'll come over
I gave you my number
You lover, supporter
Then give me a mother
You come take me home and
Take me to your doctor
You think you'll come over?
I think I'm a mother
Roll over, roll over
And roll me a man-a
You lover, my lover
You just roll me over
You give me a mother
A man if I love her
I love her, I'll keep her
I'll let her just keep her
Come on and support her
I said to the mother
She said you come over
She said she's a boulder
I love her, I kept her
And then she just left and
Alone, I implore ya
I think I'm a mother
Mother
More than ever
Need you mother
Send His Love To Me
Lover had to leave me
Cross the desert plain
Turned to me, his lady
Tells me "lover wait"
Calling Jesus, please
Send his love to me
Oh, wind and rain may haunt me
Look to the north and pray
Send me, please, his kisses
Send them home today
I'm begging Jesus, please
Send his love to me
Left alone in desert
This house becomes a hell
This love becomes a tether
This room becomes a cell
Mummy, Daddy, please
Send him back to me
How long must I suffer?
Dear god, I've served my time
This love becomes my torture
This love, my only crime
Lover please release me
My arms too weak to grip
My eyes to dry for weeping
My lips too dry to kiss
Calling Jesus, please
Send his love to me
I'm begging Jesus, please
Send his love to me
The Dancer
He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
He came bathed in light and the splendour and glory
I can't believe what the lord has finally sent me
He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh a while, I can make your heart feel
He said fly with me, touch the face of the true god
And then cry with joy at the depth of my love
Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
For the lord just to send me home some sign
I've looked long, I've looked far
To bring peace to my black and empty heart
My love will stay till the riverbed run dry
And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
I love him longer as each damn day goes
The man is gone and heaven only knows
Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights
For the lord just to send me up some sign
Is he near? Is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
So long day, so long night
Good lord, be near me tonight
Is he near? Is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
