What Else Would You Have Me Be? - Lucero
Gave you everything I stole
And you stole your heart away from me
And thieves don't you know
That's the way that we will always be
You used to love me
Running wild, sleeping with the thieves
C'mon baby, what else would you have me be?
And I'd take you out at night
Buy you cigarettes and whiskey drinks
Always end up in some fight
Ain't that the way good love has gotta be?
You used to love me
A drunkard running wild out in the streets
C'mon baby, what else would you have me be?
C'mon baby won't you dance
Make good use out of these drunken feet
And I won't mention that other man
Don't you whisper no girls names to me
You used to love me
Running wild, sleeping with the thieves
C'mon baby, what else would you have me be?
Oh, what else would you have me be? [x6]

I Don't Wanna Be The One - Lucero
I don't wanna be the one
who misses you at night
I don't wanna be the one
who's always left behind
I don't wanna be the one
who's getting in your way
I don't wanna be the one
who loses everything
When I wake up
I wonder where you are
Late at night
I been taking it way too far
It's too much to take
Can't be the one
I don't wanna be the one
to walk this endless street
I don't wanna be the one
who's nowhere else to be
I don't wanna be the one
that wants you so damn much
I don't wanna be the one
that's running outta luck
When I wake up
I wonder where you are
Late at night
I been taking it way too far
It's too much to take
Can't be the one
♬~
When I wake up
I wonder where you are
Late at night
I been taking it way too far
It's too much to take
Can't be the one
When I wake up
I wonder where you are
Late at night
I been taking it way too far
It's too much to take
Can't be the one
I don't wanna be the one
who misses you at night
I don't wanna be the one
who's always left behind
I don't wanna be the one
who's getting in your way
I don't wanna be the one
who loses everything
I don't wanna be the one

San Francisco - Lucero
First time I saw it
Half asleep and broken hearted
They strapped half stacks to roof racks
And drove to the party
There's nothing like home
With the cold summer nights
They played songs for the girls
And they drank till daylight
Ah sunk my heart at
The bottom of the bay
It's gonna wash up on the black rocks one day
Like unlucky sailors
Just swept out to sea
I think all the girls I've loved
Walked through your streets
But the waves and the fog
Always took 'em from me
Yes! Eh C'mon, eh C'mon
Eh C'mon, eh C'mon!
The Oakland apartments with the bars underneath 'em
The girlfriends and sweethearts
And the bay in between 'em
I buried my heart
At the bottom of the hill
If the girlfriends don't get you the
Sweethearts sure will
Ah sunk my heart at the
Bottom of the bay
It's gonna wash up on the
Black rocks one day
Like unlucky sailors
Just swept out to sea
I think all the girls I've loved
Walked through your streets
But the waves and the fog
Always took 'em from me
Yes! Eh C'mon, eh C'mon
Eh C'mon, eh C'mon!
♬~
Eh C'mon, eh C'mon
Eh C'mon, eh C'mon!
Only nineteen, so easy to forget
Do you wake up every morning
Thank god for those legs
There's North to Santa Rosa
And South to Santa Cruz
There's the Humboldt House, The Boardwalk
And the homemade tattoos
Ah sunk my heart
At the bottom of the bay
It's gonna wash up on the
Black rocks one day
Like unlucky sailors
Just swept out to sea
I think all the girls I've loved
Walked through your streets
But the waves and the fog
Always took 'em from me
Yeah! Eh C'mon, eh C'mon
Eh C'mon, eh C'mon!
C'mon, C'mon, C'mon
Eh C'mon, eh C'mon!

I Can Get Us Out Of Here - Lucero
Jenny lights her cigarette
Wonders how she got in this mess
Saturday night - wrong side of town
C'mon babe don't look so sad
You know it ain't half that bad
Just set 'em up, and knock 'em down
C'mon babe if you don't say goodbye
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
Come on, along, come on
Along, come on, along
Long legs use 'em and run
Blue eyes that blind like the sun
I might not be the one
But that's alright
I can get us outta here tonight
Don't look back don't hesitate
Car's outside and we can't wait
Sunday morning is coming down
I can take you away from this
You got your life, he's got his
Just set him up, knock him down
C'mon babe if you don't say goodbye
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
Come on, along, come on
Along, come on, along
Long legs use 'em and run
Blue eyes that blind like the sun
I might not be the one
But that's alright
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight
I can get us outta here tonight

Nineteen Seventy Nine - Lucero
You were mine
Nineteen seventy nine
Just skin and bones
Your favorite dress
Motorcycle boots
Raised on Rock & Roll
Now don't
Don't give up on me,
Not quite yet
Leaving me,
With only letters that
I said I never kept
Nights, nights so long
They can kill a man
Years, years so fast
It's all the same
Now why, don't you leave
Another day
♬~
Tell me why, just why
You have to go
Cause I'm, I'm no good
Out here on my own
Nights, nights so long
They can kill a man
Years, years so fast
It's all the same
Now why, don't you leave
Another day
♬~
You were mine

Cass - Lucero
Five sisters and she's the one
More beauty than the setting sun
She was much more than she showed
Something her form could not hold
She'd dance and flirt with all the boys
But all her beauty she would sooner destroy
The anchor of a soul cut loose to drift
The anchor of a soul cut loose to drift
The difference between what was and what is
I ain't exactly sure
Think how young our fathers were
Indian and Irish blood
Long dark hair and an angels touch
A beauty no man could control
And something her form could not hold
She'd dance and flirt with all the boys
But all her beauty she would sooner destroy
The anchor of a soul cut loose to drift
The anchor of a soul cut loose to drift
The difference between what was and what is
I ain't exactly sure
Think how young our fathers were
And that same night sky
Offers no answers why
Think how young our fathers were
♬~
She'd dance and flirt with all the boys
But all her beauty she would sooner destroy
The anchor of a soul cut loose to drift
The anchor of a soul cut loose to drift
The difference between what was and what is
I ain't exactly sure
Think how young our fathers were

The Mountain - Lucero
Her daddy lost most everything
On horses, whiskey, and wedding rings
A little work and luck my friend
I'm gonna buy that mountain back again
That California to Tennessee
Fortune has not yet found me
Empty hands and leather skin
Won't buy that mountain back again
Endless nights, Longer roads
None of which have yet led home
C'mon darlin' keep your promise true
Another drink, Another job
And then it's home to you my love
Gonna buy that mountain back for you
Oh back for you...
Cause if I don't you're an awful lot to lose
Now when my home again I see
Gonna buy that mountain for you and me
Up hill I'll make the rivers climb
You can swim with the stars in the fading light
Sleep by the river on that mountain high
Endless nights, Longer roads
None of which have yet led home
C'mon darlin' keep your promise true
Another drink, Another job
Then it's home to you my love
Gonna buy that mountain back for you
Oh back for you...
Cause if I don't it's an awful lot
If I don't it's an awful lot
If I don't you're an awful lot to lose
Gonna buy that mountain back for you
Work these roads until I do

Sing Me No Hymns - Lucero
The rain'll wash away the piss and blood
But the water's not enough
To wash away the things that I've done
So I keep on moving, just the same
The mountains they ain't far
And up there they don't know my name
Sing me no more
Hymns when I come home
Leave them with God
Leave me alone
Sing me no
Hymns when I come home
Leave them with God
Leave me alone
♬~
I will do as I feel need be done
To pay back what I owe
For all the blood and all the lost ones
Until I feel the proper time has come
Leave me be and let me drink
I need none of your good intentions
Sing me no more
Hymns when I come home
Leave them with God
Leave me alone
Sing me no
Hymns when I come home
Leave them with God
Leave me alone
♬~

The Weight Of Guilt - Lucero
The weight of guilt son's gonna drag you down
You better let it go else you're gonna drown
You're gonna sink wearing that heart of gold
You're holding fast boy better let it go
A heavy cross'll make a brighter crown
Carried the burden now just set it down
The weight of guilt and a tired soul
Too great a weight to carry on your own
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
The weight of guilt son's gonna drag you down
You better let it go else you're gonna drown
You're gonna sink wearing that heart of gold
You're holding fast boy you better let it go
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown
If you can't bear no crosses you can't wear no crown

She's Just That Kind Of Girl - Lucero
Running down a busy street
She was drunk when she kissed me
I know better than to be
Falling in love so easily
She's just that kinda girl
That kind of girl
Kind of girl, kind of girl
That kind of girl
I think one day she'll be my wife
I think I have to ask a hundred times
Asked the first night that we met
A hundred and one and she'll say yes
She's just that kinda girl
That kind of girl
Kind of girl, kind of girl
That kind of girl
You can't wait around
You can't wait around
I'll come clean
I want you to wait for me
We'll just have to wait and see
About the things between her and me
I know better than to be
Falling for her kisses in the street
She's just that kinda girl
That kind of girl
Kind of girl, kind of girl
That kind of girl
You can't wait around
You can't wait around
I'll come clean
I want you to wait for me
♬~
She's just that kinda girl
That kind of girl
Kind of girl, kind of girl
That kind of girl
-End-
On The Way Back Home - Lucero
So young and so hungry
So unqualified
Don't want the jobs anyway
No settled life
To get outta here
Two options one chance
You joined the army
I started a band
We'll meet at the bar
We'll buy us a round
We'll toast that we're back home
We'll toast this damn town
Annie's still working
Behind the bar
You can buy her a drink
I'll sleep in the car
Oh let's go
It's on the way back home
It's on the way back home
It's on the way back home
We'll be there soon
We'll be there soon
One of two choices
I guess I've made mine
I drink in a different town
Nearly every night
And now you don't drink
For months at a time
I owe you a couple of rounds
We're back home tonight
We'll meet at the bar
We'll drink to old times
We'll toast that we're back home
And those left behind
Annie's still working
Behind the bar
You can buy her a drink
And I'll sleep in the car
Let's go
It's on the way back home
It's on the way back home tonight
It's on the way back home
We'll be there soon
We'll be there soon
We'll be there soon

She Wakes When She Dreams - Lucero
She's crying herself to sleep every night
'til her eyes shut and find better times
She wakes when she dreams
Sleeps when she wakes
Now sleep my sweet girl
And dream of better days
Nothing it seems went according to plan
Who are we kidding, there was never a plan
We followed our instincts
In the worst kind of ways
Now sleep my sweet girl
And dream of better days
She sits at the bar, she smiles and she drinks
She talks the whole night
Never says what she means
She'll fight when she's drunk
We stay outta the way
Now sleep my sweet girl
And dream of better days
She wears a sorrow beauty can't hide
I pray she sheds it and sleep the whole night
She wakes when she dreams
And she sleeps when she wakes
Now sleep my sweet girl
And dream of better days
Now sleep my sweet girl
And dream of better days
