SUNDAY SHINING
Sunday shining
Was late in arriving
But for you I’d go to the edge of the world
And take you back home again
Sunday shining
Was late in arriving
But for you I’d go where the north winds blow
So cold down the lane
Caught in a Galveston rain.
We’ll meet again
Waves crashing in
It’s seven o’clock
And you wanna rock
You sailed to me
On the edge of a breeze
Gotta give what you got
If you want a lot
Say this lie so you’ll be mine
You get to me all the time
Sunday shining
Was late in arriving
But for you I’d fly way high in the sky
And take you back home again
It was Sunday shining
Was late in arriving
But for you I’d go where the north winds blow
So cold down the lane
Caught in a Galveston rain.
Make no amends
Cos we’ll be again
Well it’s seven o’clock
And you wanna rock
You sailed to me
On the edge of a breeze
You gotta give what you got
If you want a lot
Say this lie so you’ll be mine
You get to me all the time
Sunday shining
Was late in arriving
But for you I’d fly way high in the sky
And take you back home again
It was Sunday shining
Was late in arriving
But for you I’d go where the north winds blow
So cold down the lane
Caught in a Galveston rain.

KOREATOWN
You know that I
Was born to cry
And the things I do
Were never meant to hurt you
The sun goes down
On Koreatown
And I’m on my own
With no one to guide me home
I was never down too long
But I can feel you when I’m gone
When the light comes shining
Your soul is mine to keep
Your soul is mine to keep
Your soul is mine
Your soul is mine to keep
It’s mine to keep
You left your mark
In MacArthurs Park
Kingsley and Third
But your voice could not be heard
Not be heard
I saw you down
In Koreatown
You were in my room
Never thought goodbye was soon
I was never down too long
But I can feel you when you’re gone
When the night comes shining
Your soul is mine to keep
Your soul is mine to keep
Your soul is mine
Your soul is mine to keep
It’s mine to keep
It’s safe to say
That I’ll miss you
Either way
Away
The sun goes down
On Koreatown
And you’re on your own
With nowhere to go

Fading

FADING
You’re only fading
Eyes dilating
So blue
You’re watching reruns
Of all that you’ve done
Been through
You’re only waiting
Time’s hesitating
Without you
How you bruise
So blue
You’re soul relaxing
Veins collapsing
So blue
Your skin is thinning
Your eyes are dimming
It’s true
How you bruise
But it’s true
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning
It’s too late to go to bed
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning
Could you be your only friend
You must be somewhere
That’s in-between here and there
You don’t care
You don’t care
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning
It’s too late to go to bed
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning
You can sleep until you’re dead
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning
Don’t believe a word I said
It’s only seven o’clock in the morning
You could you be your only friend

Falling Down

FALLING DOWN
I can’t stand up
For falling down
You broke my trust
And there ain’t none now
I can’t give up
It’s too far down
You will help me up
When I reach the ground
Into your heart
The sweetest refrain
As close as you are
So far we remain
You gave me so much
It made me cry
There’s treasures locked in trunks
Buried in your eyes
Some have got to go
Down so far
Before they even know
Just how precious we are
Into your heart
The sweetest refrain
As close as you are
So far I remain
Into your heart
The sweetest refrain
As close as you are
So far we remain
So far we remain

ANTHRAX BLUES
You can’t run from anthrax
Ebola’s got your tail
Them Russian doctors got you
Like a fish inside a barrel
And there’s no use in runnin’
Son you’re really done in
It’s true
It’s too late for your gas mask
You’ve got the anthrax blues
Chemicals and acids
And gasses that kill
If those three don’t get you
Well you know the smallpox will
And there’s no use in hiding
Son there’s no denyin’
Bid adieu
Well it’s too late for your gas mask
You’ve got the smallpox blues
Well it’s too late for your gas mask
You’ve got the anthrax blues
All this fighting
We can’t get along
Them germs are spreadin’
From here to kingdom come
You can’t run from anthrax
Las Vegas got some mail
Sent up by militias
Get their orders straight from hell
Then there’s no use denyin’
Son you’re really dyin’
Bid adieu
Well it’s too late for your gas mask
You’ve got the anthrax blues

Save Yer Love For Me

Save yer love for me
When you're young and all your life's a dream
And everything's exactly as it seems
And all the places we went
Drunk afternoons spent walking alone
Y'know that sometimes I
Still wish that somehow time could fly me home
Save yer love for me
Back in '83
The world was you and me
Back to Houston my mind always goes
The thick-aired breezes of the Montrose
And all the places we went
Drunk afternoons spent walking alone
You know that sometimes I
Still wish that somehow time could fly me home
Save yer love for
Back in '83
The world was you and me
La la la
La la la
You know that sometimes I
Still have to dry and eye when I see home
Save yer love for me
I'll be what you need
Back in '83
The world was you and me
Save yer love for me
Save yer love for me
Save yer love for me

NEEDLE IN THE HAY
I got needle in the hay
I gotta find who you are
Don’t you know
Everything must fall
I got fading roots
I got nothing to prove
Every time
The lie becomes the truth
I got sin on my skin
I don’t know where to begin
Everything
Gets broken down again
Fall
When I find out what it is you really need from me
Everytime you’re exactly what you need me to be
What you’re trying to say
It always seems to slip away
It’s like a needle in the hay
You gotta follow your heart
All the way
Back to where it all starts
Starts
When I find out what it is you really need from me
Everytime you’re exactly what you need me to be
What you’re trying to say
It always seems to slip away

I'll Miss These Days

I'll Miss These Days
(from the CD "Good Luck Stranger")
I'll miss these days
Spent with you time can't erase
You'll never know all the ways
but I'll miss these days
Share a dream
You never know what it brings
This is the price it seems for us
Live and learn
Broken hearts always yearn
For a past that can't return to them
When the feeling leave you dry
Seems love's on loan from days gone by
Or not yet arrived from the days so far away
That always come but don't stay
As long as you and I remain
That's when I'll wanna say
I'll miss these days
Spent with you time can't erase
You'll never know all the ways
But I'll miss these days
Share a dream
What a lovers kiss may bring
The other half of all the things you need
But when you wake
To the sound your own doubts make
You can almost hear hearts break in two
When the feelings pass you by
Seems love's on loan from days gone by
Or not yet arrived from the days so far away
That always come but don't stay
As long as you and I remain
That's when I'll wanna say
I'll miss these days

Drunk With You
Words & Music by Brady Harris
All I wanna do is get drunk with you
Cos drinkin’ on my own
Don’t do what it used to do
I can feel me lose my power
I’ve got to get to happy hour
I’ve chased these blues all day
They come and then they slip away
With each sip I take
I’ll buy the first round for you, my love
I’ll buy the second round, cos 3 ain’t enough
I don’t wanna stay out late
Baby don’t make me wait
When all I wanna do is get next to you
Cos bein’ on my own
Always leads to darkened moods
You take up all my time
I might as well make you mine
Or you can rest assured
My vision’s gonna end up blurred
Speech slurred
I’ll buy another round for you, my drunk
I’ll buy another round, cos 4 ain’t enough
Why do you have to always say
That love is something I can’t make
When all I wanna do is is get next to you
Cos being on my own
Always leads to self abuse
You take up all my time
Not in reality but in my mind
I’ve chased these blues all day
Won’t you help me come and drink ‘em away
Say you’ll stay

FEELING STRANGELY FINE
I’m feeling strangely fine
How low did you think I would have to go
Until you believe
You said you’ll go
You said you’ll go away
The evening starts to fall
You said you’ll go away
Til the evening starts to fall
With our backs against the wall
Never to get that far
The words that you said to me
Left me feeling strangely fine
How low did you think I would have to go
Until you believe
Until you believe in me
You said you’ll know
You said you’ll know the way
The evening starts to fall
Time goes so slow
When you feel low and gray
And the blues they start to call
With our backs against the wall
Never to get that far
The words that you said to me
Left me feeling strangely fine
How low did you think I would have to go
Until you believe
Until you believe in me

Houston

HOUSTON
Well there’s nobody left in old Houston town
Everyone it seems is just leaving town
Worked hard all my life
Just to get what I need
It seems this ol’ Texas town
Has buried my dreams
Well nobody goes to the ol’ Montrose
Not a face that I see is one that I know
I spent my youth drunk here
Threw up on these streets
Westheimer Road is closing in now on me
Well there’s no one around the old downtown
Ol’ Market Square has just been tore down
They put up a parking lot
Called it Allright
I see my soul disappear on the Houston skyline
I sweat my ass off each summertime
March til November’s a mighty long time
The heatstroke can kill you
The roaches they fly, so high
Well BJ Thomas lives in Vegas now
Ol’ Lightning Hopkins been put in the ground
Roky Erickson lives in South Austin now
Houston’s musical heroes
Just can’t hang around
Well ZZ Top’s so boring now
They’re the only ones who should’ve left town
Clint Black’s records sound so homogenized
He sounded so much better
When he was just killing time
I freeze my ass off each wintertime
Tomball to Clear Lake’s a mighty long drive
It’s too cold for Yankees
And Texans can’t drive, on ice
Ol’ Dean Martin sang about Houston town
Everyone it seems was putting him down
Now they’ve all left
For places unknown
For 31 years I’ve called this my home
For 31 more years I’ll make this my home
Ol’ Houston town
