LYRICS:
05 -- BEST OF ALL POSSBIBLE WORLDS
I was running through the summer rain waiting for the evening train
To kill that old familiar pain weaving through my tangled brain
When I tipped my bottle back, smacked into a cop I didn't see
That police man said, Mister Cool
If you ain't drunk, then you're a fool
I said, if that's against the law
Tell me why I never saw
No man locked in this jail of yours
Who wasn't just low down poor as me
And that's when someone turned out the lights
Yes, and I wound up in jail to spend the night
And I dreamed of all the wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds
Next mornin' woke up feelin' like my head was really gone
And like my thick old tongue was licking something sick and wrong
I said, I'd sell my soul for something about as wet and cold as this old cell
That kindly jailer looked at me all eaten up with sympathy
Then poured himself another beer, came and whispered in my ear
Booze was just a dime a bottle
Boy, you couldn't even buy the smell
I said, I knew there's something I liked about this town
Oh, but it'll take more than that to bring me down
Cause there's still a lot of wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds
Well, they finally came and told me they was gonna set me free
And I'd be leaving town if I knew what was good for me
I said, it's nice to learn that everybody's so concerned about my health
But I won't be leaving no more quicker than I can
And I've enjoyed about as much of this as I can stand
And I don't need this town of yours
No more than I ever needed nothing else
Cause there's still a lot of drinks that I ain't drunk
Yes, and lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thunk, oh, yeah
There's still a lot of wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds
In this best of all possible worlds
In this best of all possible worlds

Lyrics:
Well, you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kinda mad
I had lot's of luck, but it's all been bad
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand
My woman run away with another man
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
A distant uncle passed away and left me quite a batch
And yes I was livin'g high until that fatal day
A lawyer proved I wasn't born
I was only hatched.
Ev'rything's agin' me and it's got me down
If I jumped in the river I would prob'ly drown
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all
Are full of holes and nails
And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails.
I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright now
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
I could buy a Sunday suit and it would leave me broke
If it had two pair of pants I would burn the coat
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
If it was rainin' gold I wouldn't stand a chance
I wouldn't have a pocket in my patched up pants
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

LYRICS:
09 -- STREETS OF BALTIMORE
Well, I sold the farm and took my woman where she wanted to be
We left our friends and all our kin back there in Tennessee
And I bought those one way tickets, she'd often begged me for
And they took us to the streets of Baltimore
Well, her heart was filled with gladness when she saw those city lights
She said the prettiest place on earth was Baltimore at night
Well, the man feels proud to give his woman what she's longing for
And I kinda like the streets of Baltimore
Well, I got myself a factory job, I ran an old machine
And I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood serene
Yes, and every night when I came home with every muscle sore
She'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore
Well, I tried my best to bring her back to what she used to be
But, I soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved me
So, I'm going back on that same train that brought me here before
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore

10 -- EASY AS THE RAIN
Lost in the conversation, it was hard to say goodnight
Standing at the station, tossing it all around
Easy as the rain came down
Both of us were used to losing, guess we had some tales to tell
Suddenly they seem amusing to recount
Easy as the rain came down
And when the train pulled in, I knew right then
You weren't going anywhere
And when the train pulled out there was no doubt left in our minds
That was many years ago, dear, though they haven't all been kind
They take on a certain glow when I hear the sound
Of rain falling on the ground, easy as the rain came down
Lost in the conversation, it was hard to say goodnight
Standing at the station, tossing it all around
Easy as the rain came down
Easy as the rain came down
