Lucky Stars
Little wing
when this world hits you hard
no matter where you are
count your lucky stars
Little tree
when it seems like you just can’t grow
dig a little farther down
and count your lucky stars
You know they’re
sparkling
twinkling
glimmering
shimmering
glistening
up there listening
you just count
count your lucky stars
Good times an dbad times
Happy and sad times
They’re up there shining
They’ll see you through
Little wing
when this world hits you hard
no matter where you are
count your lucky stars
Little tree
when it seems like you just can’t grow
dig a little farther down
and count your lucky stars
You know they’re
sparkling
twinkling
glimmering
shimmering
glistening
up there listening
you just count
count your lucky stars

Barb Wire World
Barb wire world
barb wire world
Your bricks are climbing higher
and your buildings scrape the sky
will an eye for an eye
make your whole country blind
Barb wire world
barb wire world
There’s a young girl she’s with child
and she’s walking so defiant
will the tiny life inside
really help her to survive
Wound around
your nation’s streets
the shanties and the mansions
the razor knows no end
a defense of desperation
Barb wire world
barb wire world
There’s plenty of clothes for all
and there’s a hole in the wall
where the orphan babies fall
into Momma Rosie’s open arms
Wound around
your nation’s streets
the shanties and the mansions
the razor knows no end
a defense of desperation
Barb wire world …

Lady of Saint Rose

Lady of Saint Rose
How many days
How many ways
How crazed must I remain
To break through the wall ?
Lying awake
Counting mistakes
Frame by frame waiting
To break through the wall
Sweet Lady of Saint Rose
Leave your light on for me
I’ve been lost out on your roads
Trying to set myself free
With the wind at your back
And a natural knack
Still you can’t run past
All the shit you’ve been through
With little reflection
You changed direction
Your inflection was all
I needed to hear
Sweet Lady of Saint Rose
Leave your light on for me
I’ve been lost out on your roads
Trying to set myself free

Imogene
I’ve been waiting all these years
Holding back these tears
This road I’m wandering
It’s a twisty winding trail
Ive been dusting off my prayers
Peeling back the layers
of the wouldas and the couldas
and the what I might have done
Imogene
Imogene
Won’t you
Let me back in
I need your
blessed medicine
Imogene
I’ve been moving in slow motion
since I swam in your blue ocean
Some days I’d like to stay
down on your sandy bottom
I’ve been tilting at the windmills
Scrubbing grubby windowsills
Dreaming of a world you and I may never know
Imogene
Imogene
Won’t you
Let me back in
I need your
blessed medicine
Imogene
I’ve been searching for direction
it’s nowhere to be found
the sun my trusty compass
is trapped behind the clouds
I’ve been spending so much time
Hoping we might find
Our way back to the place
with the sunshine on your face
Imogene
Imogene
Won’t you
Let me back in
I need your
blessed medicine
take my breath away
I need your
blessed medicine
Imogene

Hell or High Water
Come Hell or High Water
Solid or shake ground
Come Hell or high water
Solid or shake ground
Ooh what a beautiful morning
Oh what a good day to die
Can’t you feel the glory
Rising in the tide
Hell or High water solid or shaky ground
Weather man says
you better pile those sand bags high
Weather woman says you better
Pile your sandbags high
Ooh what a beautiful morning
Oh what a good day to die
Can’t you feel the glory
Rising in the tide
Hell or High water solid or shaky ground
Prepare to meet your maker
Watch your life flash before your eyes
Prepare to meet your maker
Watch your life flash before your eyes
Ooh what a beautiful morning
Oh what a good day to die
Can’t you feel the glory
Rising in the tide
Hell or High water
Gospel call and response outro
Hell or High Water
I will stand my ground
Hell or High Water
I will not back down
Hell or High Water
Gather your people around
Hell or High Water
I will be homeward bound
Hell or High Water
The lost will soon be found

Impossible Me
Impossible me
improbable you
Where in the world
did I find you
I live in the clouds
you walk on the ground
who would I be without you
We walk in the country air
we raised our family there
the winds of changes blow
our two birds have flown
Impossible me
Improbable you
where in the world
did the time go
Impossible me
Improbable you
I know today is your birthday
I want to say happy birthday
We walk in the country air
we raised our family there
the winds of changes blow
our two birds have flown

Wasted Time
You’re sitting there watching the blades of grass grow
itchy leaves between your toes
contemplating the crime
of wasted time
You’re watching the cubes in your glass melt
remember how his icy stair felt
regurgitating the crime
of wasted time
and you want
to be sure
it was all meant to be
i the end it was more than a notion of love
and the days
go by
somedays there’s something to show
some days you can never get enough
The blur of the world from your train car
mind games only take you so far
participating in the crime
of wasted time
and you want to be sure
it was all meant to be
i the end it was more than a notion of love
and the days go by
somedays there’s something to show
some days you can never get enough

Heaven is the Place (Emma Stone)
from Dan Imhoff’s ‘Lucky Stars” album
Heaven is the place where the trees stand tall
the roots grow deep and the days go long
Rivers flow free like children running on the beach
and lovers under covers have a reason to believe
you know in your bones
and you taste it on your lips
ignorance is the opposite of this
slip into the wrinkle of the invisible wall
slide into the moment and your mind gets lost
the sun is shining but it’s raining and we’re bouncing in the clouds
all the girls are funny
all the girls are funny
all the girls are as funny as Emma Stone
home is the place with that sparkle in your eye
and the smile on your face when you see me walking by
the wind dries your clothes and the dog licks your toes
there’s a cat on your lap and some flour in a sack
you forgot to go to work
cause you were having so much fun
now the clocks are turning backwards
so you won’t come undone
slip into the wrinkle of the invisible wall
slide into the moment and your mind gets lost
the sun is shining but it’s raining and we’re bouncing in the clouds
all the girls are funny
all the girls are funny
all the girls are as funny as Emma Stone
Love is a blessing in its messiness
a noble blend of mysteriousness
Standing on the altar in your birthday dress
I can almost sense my religiousness
Take me down to the water
and sanctify my soul
anything to make mind and body whole

Evening Train

Evening Train
I hear you’re leaving on the evening train
I hear you’re leaving on the evening train
You’ve gone and packed your bags now
You’re standing on the platform
The station master calls your train
I see you pull away now
Our yesterdays are fading
I hear you’re leaving on the evening train
Your search for greener pasture
Can’t get there any faster
What could I do or say to make you stay
Outside the rain is falling
I wish I never saw your face
I hear you’re leaving on the evening train
I hear you’re leaving on the evening train
I hear you’re leaving
I hear you’re leaving
