The stars twinkle, oh how they shine – In the sky tonight To see them with the one you love – makes everything alright Venus shines just like a diamond – in the Milky Way The moon is full and glowing bright – then she hears you say Chorus There's poop on the moon – Don't mean to be rude but there's poop on the moon – I know it kills the mood but there's poop on the moon Only twelve men ever stepped down – On the lunar dust After they were there a while – they did what they must Maximum absorbency garments – is what they wore They call them MAGS, we call them diapers – you know what they're for Poop on the moon – NASA said to leave it Poop on the moon – I know, I can't believe it but there's poop on the moon Neil Armstong, Alan Bean – even Pete Conrad They all got dirty space diapers – in a zip lock bag Stacked and tagged in little piles – at the lunar stations But not Buzz Aldrin he had – traveler's constipation Poop on the moon – their morning constitution Poop on the moon – for weight distribution yeah there's poop on the moon

Cryin' Train 03:00
Windows rolled down in my Oldsmobile Funny how that train whistle makes me feel It's rolling down the tracks, for someplace new And the sky spill shades of red and grey While the sun goes down to close the day I wonder if that ole train is tryin' to tell me What to do... Chorus Cuz this sleepy ole town, it can get me down Make my soul want to roam But I always stick around, cuz it turns out that sound Is just that train crying to go home And then that nightime sky comes rollin in sometimes if feels like a dear old friend The kind that's always there, come what may And that city sometimes can get so cold And the same ole skyline can get so old Makes me wonder, why the hell I stay Chorus Cuz this sleepy ole town, it can get me down Make my soul want to roam But I always stick around, cuz it turns out that sound Is just that train crying to go home

Never was popular – when I was a kid Never had a whole lotta friends But I found out – that bein' a kid Ain't where the story ends Some of them kids – thought they knew it all They never had a clue I wonder if they look back – at the things that they did I bet they never do Now when I was in school – if you could pass a ball They might have a parade But they never hung banners – up on the wall If you got a passing grade See, some of them kids – man, they could - throw a ball Better than me and you But these days I find – that's something that I'm Not really required to do Chorus- When you're a kid – you're just a kid No way you could have known That some of that stuff – that mattered back then Don't matter after you've grown Ya know, growing up – can seem kinda hard It's harder than it looks Cuz some of that stuff – that you need learn Ain't written your books So if you're a kid – and you're trying to find What it's all about Just be yourself – try to be kind I bet you figure it out Chorus and outro

I'm getting older, more concerned about my health Just like they say it's more important than your wealth I'm in my fifties so it's time to be a man I called the doctor for a physical exam He checked my nose and he looked inside my ears Asked if I smoked or if I drank a lot of beers He checked my lungs and he listened to my heart It was going great but then it all fell apart Chorus He stuck his finger in my butt He greased it up boy, and I'll tell ya what I would've bet, that I'd never let Some guy stick his finger in my butt I gotta tell ya, it came as a surprise It took my breath away and bugged out my eyes It didn't hurt that much and I'm not really sore I just assumed I might resist a little more When he.... Chorus Modern medicine, can cause my thoughts to linger All these advancements but they still use a finger I'm not mad, I won't even shed a tear Just kinda sad I gotta wait another year He'll stick his...... Chorus Outro

Once upon a time, I went everywhere with you You said that you loved me from the day we met And the first night we spent apart You cried the whole night through And it's a good thing you don't love me anymore Things were different, not so long ago And I knew things had to change, I understand And I knew the day was comin', When you'd have to let me go And it's a good thing you don't love me anymore Chorus It's a good thing you don't love me anymore I don't mind that you left me layin' on the floor And the best thing you could have done Was to walk right out that door And it's a good thing you don't love me anymore Well, I've grown old, I've lost a lot of hair My shirt is torn and dirty, I've only got one eye And now you're a full grown man I'm just a tattered old teddy bear And it's a good thing you don't love me anymore Chorus It's a good thing you don't love me anymore I don't mind that you left me layin' on the floor And the best thing you could have done Was to walk right out that door And it's a good thing you don't love me anymore It's a good thing you don't love me anymore

Summer Rain 03:18
I don't really have a lot of money But I just paid off my double wide Never had much time for a honey But I always wished I had one by my side Lately there's this girl that's caught my fancy Livin' in the trailer next to mine She told me that her name is Nancy I think she know I think she's really fine Chorus And summer rain keeps coming through my window But it's too hot to keep it closed at night I know that some day, I'll have to find a way To try to keep that window locked up tight I found out Nancy has a boyfriend Biker type, they call him Savage Stu He works as a bouncer at the strip club Turns out that's where Nancy's working too And Nancy had to get herself a stage name And Stu he drinks too much to ease his head And when she's on the pole, they call her Summer Rain Then she goes home and puts drunk Stu to bed Chorus And Summer Rain keeps coming through my window But it's too hot to keep it closed at night I know that some day, I'll have to find a way To try to keep that window locked up tight Repeat Chorus

Gather 'round me children, I've got a tale to tell Gather 'round me closely, so you can hear me well You only get one childhood, enjoy it while you can And try to stay away, from the man in the windowless van Now he might have a puppy, or a great big candy bar He might offer you a ride so you don't have to walk so far He might say he's a dear old friend of your mom and dad You might think he's a real nice guy but he's not, he bad Chorus He's the bad, bad man in the windowless van, Hangin' out a the park Better beware, if you can, Especially after dark You can be nice to everyone you meet I really think you should But the bad, bad man in the windowless van Is up to no good Now I'm not trying to scare you, not trying to cause alarm I'm just looking out for you, trying to keep you away from harm Better safe than sorry, cuz you just never know But it looks like everything's ok, let's get in my van and go Chorus He's the bad, bad man in the windowless van, Hangin' out a the park Better beware, if you can, Especially after dark You can be nice to everyone you meet I really think you should But the bad, bad man in the windowless van Is up to no good Yeah, the bad, bad man in the windowless van Is up to no good

The Diner 04:56
Sometimes she loses track, - She can't remember when She started working at Harry's Diner, - Seems like she's always been And when she adds it up, - that's when it all sinks in See, she was 17, - And he was 23 He said “dont you worry baby - Cuz you can count on me I'll do the right thing – We'll be a family” But he couldn't hold a job – He's out drinking every night And when he did come home – He'd always start a fight So when he left for good – She thought everything would be alright And that diner job came in handy – Cuz jobs were hard to find And if you're a single mom needing money – Then you're the hiring kind She raised her boy in that corner booth, and Harry – He didn't mind Chorus Sometimes life it ain't so easy – You just do the best that you can do You might be making plans for the future – But the future might have other plans for you She's a pretty gal with a worried look – Not as old as she appears And he's a good kid, smart enough to know – she's trying to hide her fears So he hugs her and he holds on tight – Trying to keep away all her tears He works around the diner – Tryin' to help his mama out And when he got old enough – He got a paper route And when he turned 17 he said, - “Hey Ma, I got it all figured out” He came up with this idea – After the fourth of July parade He said “I'll join the service Mama – And they'll teach me a trade Then when I get out, I can get a job and then – We'll have it made” His squad was in a chopper – that got hit by an RPG Now his picture hangs by that corner booth – For everyone to see And she clocks in for another double shift – Cuz she's got nowhere else to be Chorus – Instrumental break Repeat first verse and end on “sinks in.......”

Oh Jee 03:12
Growing up my best friend's name was Jee He grew up in the house next door to me They said Jesus was his Christian name, but to me it's all the same He was Jee to his friends and family Me and Jee, we hung out on the street Runnin' round in robes and sandels on our feet His folks were really nice, that Joe and Mary Christ They were always really very sweet Me and Jee, we were thick as theives He always had somethin' up his sleeve I remember that one time, he turned water into wine We got so drunk, man I could barely see Chorus Oh Jee, Oh Jee Oh where in the hell can you be Been a while since he left town, I bet he's out there hangin' round I hear he's coming back again, we'll see Jee's old man, he worked construction My old man worked for the government They told us 'one of the days, you boys will take our place' Back then, that's just the way it went But Jee, he wasn't diggin' woodwork He said he heard voices from above He said 'I'm thinkin' bout skippin' town, And just go runnin' round Tellin' all the people about love' They say he's been hangin' with some longhairs And some gal that used to walk the streets at night Me, I'm workin' with my pops, and the boredom never stops I miss ole Jee, I hope he's alright Chorus & out

Got the blues for you baby, but not bad enough to play 'em on my guitar Got the blues for you baby, but not bad enough to play 'em on my guitar We never really talked that much, and all we did was hang out at the bar I thought we had a lot in common, girl you know just what I mean I thought we had a lot in common, baby you know just what I mean We both had a taste for Miller High Life, and we both like drinking about 9:15 Chorus The thought of life without you, it kinda made me sad But since you left me baby, it hasn't been all that bad I got the blues for you baby, not bad enough to play em on my guitar We never really talked that much, and all we did was hang out at the bar Got the blues for you baby, but not bad enough to play 'em on my guitar Got the blues for you baby, but not bad enough to play 'em on my guitar We never really talked that much, and all we did was hang out at the bar
