Life's ride down the river
Everyday getting clearer
All the while getting nearer
We all belong
This place we've been delivered
Take the good with the bitter
Some may dismiss you
We all belong
When you and I
Were so far
We were so far
Away from here
All my life been gambling times
Been evading mines
Away from here
And the roads they'll take you down
And the winds will sweep your feet off the ground
And the wheels they won't turn around
On that road that leads outta town
I've found
When you and I were so far away
We were so far
Away from here
Jericho lyrics - Citizen Cope
Bobbi pins are in her hair
The slip is huggin's her rear
I'm starin' at her life's real clear
Washing her face in the mirror
That's how I like to remember
The saints and the sinners
Nobody could deter her
Nobody could prevent it
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
The woman that I love is so abandoned and alone
And all I have to console me
Is that Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
She's got a country slide a city style
A smile to last a country mile
She's got a light that makes most of us feel alive
She's cries
A grown woman child
That's how I like to remember
The saints and the sinners
Itried to defend her
The jury didn't resemble her.
The slip is huggin's her rear
I'm starin' at her life's real clear
Washing her face in the mirror
That's how I like to remember
The saints and the sinners
Nobody could deter her
Nobody could prevent it
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho
The woman that I love is so abandoned and alone
And all I have to console me
Is that Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
She's got a country slide a city style
A smile to last a country mile
She's got a light that makes most of us feel alive
She's cries
A grown woman child
That's how I like to remember
The saints and the sinners
Itried to defend her
The jury didn't resemble her.
The Newspaper lyrics - Citizen Cope
The newspaper got some more people killed here
The magazine watched them shoot em' in the field there
The radio they turned another deaf ear
The institutions stole everything near
Segeant Manny's workin' on a lead
From his funky at the doubletree
Five cannon's outside the door
Five badges and a labrador
Born to chase after that dollar bill
Not to race up that forgotten hill
They don't want you but you're still here
And God knows that's a miracle
The newspaper got some more people killed here
The magazine watched them shoot em' in the field here
The radio they turned another deaf ear
The institution stole everything near
They pulled them over on the interstate
In her apartment threw a stun grenade
Found the pistol put the house in flames
And that's was happened in their world today
Born to chase after that dollar bill
Not to race up that forgotten hill
They don't want you but you're still here
God knows that's a miracle
The magazine watched them shoot em' in the field there
The radio they turned another deaf ear
The institutions stole everything near
Segeant Manny's workin' on a lead
From his funky at the doubletree
Five cannon's outside the door
Five badges and a labrador
Born to chase after that dollar bill
Not to race up that forgotten hill
They don't want you but you're still here
And God knows that's a miracle
The newspaper got some more people killed here
The magazine watched them shoot em' in the field here
The radio they turned another deaf ear
The institution stole everything near
They pulled them over on the interstate
In her apartment threw a stun grenade
Found the pistol put the house in flames
And that's was happened in their world today
Born to chase after that dollar bill
Not to race up that forgotten hill
They don't want you but you're still here
God knows that's a miracle
A Father's Son lyrics - Citizen Cope
Look look what you've done
Not to become your father's son
Before that day, day, day is done
You'll get your day, day, day in the sun
In this time we've got here
Between heaven and hell
You'd prefer a motor craft
But your prepared to set sail
The city wants details
The state wants you nailed
The people got they laws
But the lord's got the calls
Since there's cash in the lots
You did what they said you could not
write that song like its all that you got
Look look what you've done
not to become your father's son
Before that day, day, day is done
You'll get your day, day, day in the sun
Do you mind livin' day to day?
you mind livin' day to day
You was found now you're lost
you've got to make up what you cost
That boulder on your shoulder
is that bear that you cross
That stare that you plot
That will that you got
Could never have been bought
In China or New York
Look look what you've done
Not to become your father's son
Before that day, day, day is done
You'll get your day, day. day in the sun
Do you mind livin' day to day?
you mind livin' day to day
Not to become your father's son
Before that day, day, day is done
You'll get your day, day, day in the sun
In this time we've got here
Between heaven and hell
You'd prefer a motor craft
But your prepared to set sail
The city wants details
The state wants you nailed
The people got they laws
But the lord's got the calls
Since there's cash in the lots
You did what they said you could not
write that song like its all that you got
Look look what you've done
not to become your father's son
Before that day, day, day is done
You'll get your day, day, day in the sun
Do you mind livin' day to day?

You was found now you're lost

Back Together lyrics - Citizen Cope
Been stuck in the middle of a
Vendetta between
Me and myself
I sure could use a witness
But I just ain't found one yet
I sent a message in a bottle
Took another swallow
I heard it didn't get there
I heard that it had missed ya
Well, this is what it said
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Yeah, yeah
Cheap women, and cheap wine,
Cheap money, cheap time
These things do not exist
But what makes that temptation
Just so hard to resist?
That stolen Picasso,
The mess above your head
I wish that you could hear me
This is what I said
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Yeah, yeah
Vendetta between
Me and myself
I sure could use a witness
But I just ain't found one yet
I sent a message in a bottle
Took another swallow
I heard it didn't get there
I heard that it had missed ya
Well, this is what it said
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Yeah, yeah
Cheap women, and cheap wine,
Cheap money, cheap time
These things do not exist
But what makes that temptation
Just so hard to resist?
That stolen Picasso,
The mess above your head
I wish that you could hear me
This is what I said
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Yeah, yeah
Every Waking Moment lyrics - Citizen Cope
I watched the country move slow
I watched a city for a dollar get sold
I watched a bella take off her clothes
I watched the miles from the car window
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Whether i know it or not
Or whather i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Whether i know it
Or whether i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
I've been to Paris
I've been to Rome
Never been to Laos
But i'll lie and say i've gone
I've been touched by a woman that i lust
I've been real high
I've been real low
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Or whether i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Whether i know it
Or whether i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
Every waking moment i'm alive..
I watched a city for a dollar get sold
I watched a bella take off her clothes
I watched the miles from the car window
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Whether i know it or not
Or whather i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Whether i know it
Or whether i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
I've been to Paris
I've been to Rome
Never been to Laos
But i'll lie and say i've gone
I've been touched by a woman that i lust
I've been real high
I've been real low
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Or whether i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
I'm searching for you
Whether i know it
Or whether i realize
Every waking moment i'm alive
Every waking moment i'm alive..
Friendly Fire lyrics - Citizen Cope
They say help is coming
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
They run for cover
They got no answer
Why they left him for dead
They say help is coming
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
Help is coming
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
They run for cover
They got no answer
Why they left him for dead
Help is coming
They say help is on its way
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
They run for cover
They got no answer
Why they left him for dead
They say help is coming
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
Help is coming
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
They run for cover
They got no answer
Why they left him for dead
Help is coming
They say help is on its way

Brother Lee lyrics - Citizen Cope
On the highway
On the freeway
In the airport
In the airplane
In the airtrain
In Brooklyn U.S.A.
To a Tinsel Town
Where now
What the Dodgers play
And where they fired it
Where they tried it
Where they doubled it
Where they tripled it
Where they flippin' it
And where the car's parked
Where the girls dance naked
Where they know when you're fakin' it
And where the rubber meets the road yea
Where the hot meets the cold
Poor meet the soul
Where the young meet the old
Truth be told
I got somethin' on my mind
Y'all gotta know
I got a brother named Lee
Look just like me
He gotta lotta enemies
Got a brother named Lee
Look just like me
Both sides of the Mississippi [x2]
On the highway
On the freeway
In the airport
On the airtrain
In the airplane
In Brooklyn U.S.A.
To the Tinsel Town
Where now
What the Dodgers play
And when they're searchin' for something
That you will never find
When they lookin' at her and say 'so fine'
When they keep saying it was suicide
When they never seen that look in her father's eye
Where the rubber meet the road
Where the hot meet the cold
The spirit meet the soul
The young meet the old
I say truth be told
I got somethin' on my mind
Y'all gotta know
I got a brother named Lee
Look just like me
He gotta lotta enemies
Got a brother named Lee
Looks just like me
Both sides of the Mississippi [x2]
Both sides of the Mississippi yea
Both sides of the Mississippi yea
Both sides
Both sides
Both sides of the Mississippi yea
On the freeway
In the airport
In the airplane
In the airtrain
In Brooklyn U.S.A.
To a Tinsel Town
Where now
What the Dodgers play
And where they fired it
Where they tried it
Where they doubled it
Where they tripled it
Where they flippin' it
And where the car's parked
Where the girls dance naked
Where they know when you're fakin' it
And where the rubber meets the road yea
Where the hot meets the cold
Poor meet the soul
Where the young meet the old

John Lennon lyrics - Citizen Cope
(La la la) (La la la) (La la la) Without you I'd be all alone

I keep hearin'
That the end is nearin'
Every other week there's another villain
John Lennon tried to help stop the killin'
The sorry thing is that nobody listened
The city and country they divided
They pointin' their fingers
Their callin' each other liar
And it's ashame
Traded on Jesus' name
And since the ages of Abel and Cain
Pleasure and pain
Heroin and cocaine
The father's insane
The son is kinda strange
Self-inflicted shotgun blast to the face
These croked politicians
They ordering the killin' of
Of innocent civilians
They build another prison
For the children to fill them
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone

All Dressed Up lyrics - Citizen Cope
She's weighin' on my mind and it won't let up
I couldn't get enough of her
She's out on the town and she's all dressed up
I couldn't get enough of her
She walked into the room and the place lit up
I couldn't get enough of her
Distance is lifting me up
I couldn't get enough of her love
I couldn't get enough of her
Here's a song for you I play
From all of my life, from all of my days
Life is short but the summer is long
And we could get together a lot before the fall
And when you get near, close enough to hear, my mind just settles
The thoughts just clear
And I could touch you right
And I could rush you right and
Them walls gonna fall like the full moon-light
Yeah Yeah
She's weighin' on my mind and it won't let up
I couldn't get enough of her
She's out on the town and she's all dressed up

Left For Dead lyrics - Citizen Cope
Been left for dead
I know it's in the back of your head
Been left for dead
Sister you're better than that
Been sold downstream
Sold down river to the cousin of the king
Been left for dead
Sister you're better than that
A e i o u
A e i o u
A e i o u
Gonna beat him instead
Beat all the odds that you got up ahead
You gonna beat him instead
Cause sister you better than that
A e i o u
A e i o u
A e i o u
I know it's in the back of your head
Been left for dead
Sister you're better than that
Been sold downstream
Sold down river to the cousin of the king
Been left for dead
Sister you're better than that
A e i o u
A e i o u
A e i o u
Gonna beat him instead
Beat all the odds that you got up ahead
You gonna beat him instead
Cause sister you better than that
A e i o u
A e i o u
A e i o u
