Tough Mama Meat shakin´ on your bones I´m gonna go down to the river and get some stones. Sister´s on the highway with that steel-drivin´ crew,
Papa´s in the big house, his workin´ days are through. Tough Mama Can I blow a little smoke on you?
Dark Beauty Won´t you move it on over and make some room? It´s my duty to bring you down to the field where the flowers bloom. Ashes in the furnace, dust on the rise, You came through it all the way, flyin´ through the skies. Dark Beauty With that long night´s journey in your eyes.
Sweet Goddess Born of a blinding light and a changing wind, Now, don´t be modest, you know who you are and where you´ve been.
Jack the Cowboy went up north He´s buried in your past. The Lone Wolf went out drinking That was over pretty fast. Sweet Goddess Your perfect stranger´s comin´ in at last.
Silver Angel With the badge of the lonesome road sewed in your sleeve, I´d be grateful if this golden ring you would receive. Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch, I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch. Sweet Goddess It must be time to carve another notch.
I´m crestfallen The world of illusion is at my door, I ain´t a-haulin´ any of my lambs to the marketplace anymore. The prison walls are crumblin´, there is no end in sight, I´ve gained some recognition but I lost my appetite. Dark Beauty Meet me at the border late tonight.
