Her Eyes 04:18
Across the room just out of reach from me, you put on quite the show Long hair lipstick and faded jeans hugging, tight places down below You move and shake just to get your way and you, know what it does to me I will fall for you every time cause I’m, cursed by this spell on me She can dance and she can wrap you ‘round her mind She controls you with the romance in her eyes She can trap you in a trance and lose your mind She controls you with the romance in her eyes Catch a glimpse of her vicious hips shaking god knows she’s looking fine Make a move and you play her game that she’s, won from the starting line Black magic and her wicked ways makes it, impossible to break Tangled up in her spider’s web and you, don’t care if you escape She can dance and she can wrap you ‘round her mind She controls you with the romance in her eyes She can trap you in a trance and lose your mind She controls you with the romance in her eyes She can dance and she can wrap you ‘round her mind She controls you with the romance in her eyes She can trap you in a trance and lose your mind She controls you with the romance in her eyes

Swamp Daddy 06:15
Take a trip down the road, with me into the past Daisy come waking me, gotta make it fast Grab the hooks and the lines, pack ‘em in the skiff It’s a thrill shoot to kill, steady bang stick Down the Bayou Sorrel, swamp daddy on the lam Muddy grave where she lay, taken from my hand Black and plain ornery, 57 stone yeah Sink my sweet Daisy, into the jaw’s hollows I’m taking eye for an eye, I’m taking your life tonight Swamp Daddy dragging the line I’m taking eye for an eye, I’m taking your life tonight Swamp Daddy dragging the line Toss it back getting late, moonlight on the water Take a sip lose my grip, swamp daddy holler Yellow eyes closing in, Daisy I’m coming home yeah Guess it’s me or the beast, heavy death roll I’m taking eye for an eye, I’m taking your life tonight Swamp Daddy dragging the line I’m taking eye for an eye, I’m taking your life tonight Swamp Daddy dragging the line
7.
Climb aboard this starship to the sky Twenty lightyears in the blink of an eye Laid to waste and leaving earth behind us Strap in, countdown, liftoff, vibration, and thrust It’s a race out in space to the rock It’s a race out in space to the rock Take us, break us, make us Out there, somewhere, please be there Tearing through the vast infinity Clutching second chances longing for the dream Approaching nigh the fated savior nation Anticipating she could be a salvation It’s a race out in space to the rock It’s a race out in space to the rock Take us, break us, make us Out there, somewhere, please be there Racing, chasing, replacing
8.
Hell and high water coming, gonna break on through my door Radio siren humming, nothing we ain’t seen before Gonna take me down, gonna take the town Take to your fancy high ground, I’m pushing through this storm High water taking the town Take this town, yeah Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh Hold tight upon your horses, no need to break a sweat Afraid up to my ankles, nothing wrong with getting wet Gonna take me down yeah, gonna take the town Don’t need your ugly face around, filling me with your regret High water taking the town Take this town, yeah Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
9.
Blue-eyed baby staring through the window Going through the motion once again Papa ain’t no rolling stone Short and sweet really did him in Where my daddy gone Cursing a blessing looking for solutions Stuffing sorries deep in a paper sack Silver lining lost its luster Making believe you’re coming back Where my daddy gone Screaming into the sky, whoa Begging to justify, yeah Time drags slowly filling up a big hole New pair ‘o shoes don’t fit so well Stashing all this time I’m stealing Bit too big as far as I can tell Where my daddy gone Screaming into the sky, whoa Begging to justify, yeah Taking the best piece, keep it to myself Pie in the sky I’ll eat somehow Breaking down those expectations Whoa daddy if you could see me now Where my daddy gone Screaming into the sky, whoa Begging to justify, yeah
10.
Salt stains on the carpet, burnt smoke in air There’s a lady on the line, lawmen hot on the trail Police suspicion, wrest-a-ling right through the door It ain’t the first time, she’s been dead wrong before, woo hoo A little unsound, a little unwound, she don’t know her up from down Pleasure and pain, one and the same, nothing is new she’s got skin in the game Tell you she’s a victim, blind faith it’s just because Murder is her directive, defines how crazy she was Don’t know any better, obsessed deep in a hole Bad for her aching heart, still feels good on the soul, woo hoo A little unsound, a little unwound, she don’t know her up from down Pleasure and pain, one and the same, nothing is new she’s got skin in the game Whoa Whoa
