Oh I'm afraid to open my eyes
I know she'll be there on his mind
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Oh Dani she is following me
She is tearing apart my sanity
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Oh I know you must be lonely
I know its hard to let go of all that you've known
But, you've had years together to work this through
All that happened is you both became unglued
Seems like you missed the pieces too
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Leave my man to me
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Oh Dani won't you leave my man
Leave my man to me
Oh are you coming or going, Dani, I need to know
Cause he's not strong enough to let you go
Oh are you coming or going, Dani, I need to know
Cause he's not strong enough to let you go
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Leave my man to me
Oh Dani won't you leave my man to me
Oh Dani won't you leave my man
Leave my man to me

Little Ruthie had a good run
Always elbow deep at the end of a trail of crumbs
Little Ruthie drew lines, time is all she took
If you can’t read between ‘em, you don’t play by her book
Little Ruthie where you hiding
Come on out there’s people dying
Misled by the tread of phoney facts
What they’re selling, I ain’t buying
Patriotic branded violence
She’s not found on a clearance rack
Until they’re toothless
Lying through their teeth, they’re ruthless
Last seen handcuffed eating pavement
Whispering names turned political statements
She’s been sneered at and tear gassed, fed gag orders
But the thing is Ruth don’t need us and we need more of her
Little Ruthie where you hiding
Come on out there’s people dying
Misled by the tread of phoney facts
What they’re selling, I ain’t buying
Patriotic branded violence
She’s not found on a clearance rack
Until they’re toothless
Lying through their teeth, they’re ruthless
Little Ruthie - where’d you run and hide, Ruth
Little Ruthie - they serving up some cooked proof
Little Ruthie - saying bon appetit
Little Ruthie - lying through their crooked teeth
Little Ruthie - where’d you run and hide, Ruth
Little Ruthie - you’re missing from the ballot booth
Little Ruthie - propaganda running loose
Little Ruthie - best tighten up and find Ruth
Little Ruthie where you hiding
Come on out there’s people dying
Misled by the tread of phoney facts
What they’re selling, I ain’t buying
Patriotic branded violence
She’s not sold
She’s not sold
She’s not sold on a clearance rack

There’s an old house in a river town
Will it remain when I return
It may wear down but likely sell for thousands
So I may as well watch it burn
Will my nephews know their uncle
Or will I just live in their mothers’ words
But with words afew I’ll teach them something
The unconditional is a ramble’s curse
Keep me rolled up in a poster or hang me on your wall
Write me in a folk song in your notebook, you can play me down the hall
Keep me locked up in your sock drawer or prop me on your desk
Take me walking in your pocket, change don’t pay without the past
There’s a new house on a hillside
I traded a river for an ocean bay
I have a garden now and a fulfilled eye
But that river still flows in my veins
It’s a new line in an old book
For these vagabond thoughts are just retold
But in due time after the long route
They are mine to find, mine to behold
Keep me rolled up in a poster or hang me on your wall
Write me in a folk song in your notebook, you can play me down the hall
Keep me locked up in your sock drawer or prop me on your desk
Take me walking in your pocket, change don’t pay without the past
Keep me rolled up in a poster or hang me on your wall
Write me in a folk song in your notebook, you can play me down the hall
Keep me locked up in your sock drawer or prop me on your desk
Take me walking in your pocket, change don’t pay without the past
