Something's In The Water
I know a man for all seasons, he's out there on the street
He's got a hunger in his, dead on his feet
He talks in riddles, he talks in rhyme
What a story he could tell
If the good Lord gives him time
Life was easy, now he lives on hope
Hung up on drinking and all kinds of dope
Drifting on the clouds, rolling on the sea
There's something in the water
And it troubles me
Something's in the water
Another day over, the seabird folds her wings
The songbird sleeps while the nightbird sings
It's up there in the clouds and deep down in the sea
Well I know something's in the water
And it's playing games with me
A man for any season, he's out there on the street
Wisdom in his eyes, the world at his feet
He speaks in riddles, he talks in rhymes, sometimes
Could be a higher truth is written
Somewhere between the lines

Take It Or Leave It
Take it or leave it,this is all I've got for sale
Take it leave it, I know it's not much of a deal
Right now it's the only one I can offer you
So take it or leave it but you better believe it's true
Maybe tomorrow there'll be something else
And maybe we'll borrow a little time to ourselves
Who knows where the road is leading to
So take it or leave it but you better believe it's true
You came to me with your eyes open wide
Now anyone can see you're not satisfied
Nobody told you this would be an easy ride
And nobody sold you any false alibis
Some things just don't go like you want them to
Take it or leave it but you'd better believe it's true

Fruit On The Vine
There were good days, and there were bad days
All the things we left behind
So many strange encounters
In an uncertain time
But I got you and you got me
And we're doing fine
We've got a harvest coming home
And fruit on the vine
Let me know what I can do
Maybe share a time with you
Making something out of nothing
When there's nothing more to do
Sometimes the good times can be hard to find
But we got a harvest coming home
And fruit on the vine
Call me if you need me and I'll be around
I'll meet you in the twilight when the sun goes down
When the wells running dry and the sun won't shine
We'll see the harvest coming home
And fruit on the vine.

Just Let It Roll
Sometimes all you need
Is a little, Jimmy Reed
To get you through the night
Sometimes, all it takes
Is the music that he makes
To make you feel alright
Let it roll, anyway you want to
Let it roll
And your troubles start slipping out of sight
And sometimes all you need
Is a little Jimmy Reed
