00:10April Ann
00:30The fangled, jagged, faggot friend was dead
00:34And the wine you spilled, it stained her pillow red
00:40And the midnight cowboys came and quickly fled
00:45For the whole thing was bringing her down
00:51Lady Ann, we danced the fandango on your bed
00:57And the gypsy woman once said
01:03Let an easy rider share your bed
01:08But you chose the drunken gigolo instead
01:14How were you to know he was your bread
01:20And you sighed and cried, you hung your head and said
01:25That the whole thing was bringing you down
01:45But you knew exactly how the hell did you talk to me
01:48And I said it was a little bit
01:49Or the whole thing was bringing you down
01:49And you shared it with me
01:49To the girl and the told pieces of the dog
01:52And you still knew it was the trick
01:53And you still knew it was the flaw
01:58And you still moved and could you
01:59You still tried to know that
02:02April Ann with the red bandana around her hair
02:08Pretty Ann with the peacock-feathered fan's hair
02:13Left the sash around her waist and turned her hair
02:18And her jingle-jagged, faggot friend was dead
02:25And the midnight cowboys came and quickly fled
02:30Oh, the wine we spilled, it stained her pillow bed
02:35And she let an easy rider share her bed
02:42But she chose the drunken gigolo instead
02:52And I know
02:57Does the bandana go on your bed
03:01Still
03:04And she chose the drunken gigolo instead
03:34Sometimes I drive out to Topanga
03:39And I park my car in the sand
03:47Watching and waiting for a pickup from my man
03:56Then maybe down to Farmer's Market
04:01We need people, they're working in the sun
04:11Find and sell them for a profit
04:17To anyone
04:25Oh, Mary, I'm in the deep water
04:30And it's way, way over my head
04:39Everyone thought I was smarter
04:44Than to be, way over my head
04:53You've heard of train wrecks in the mountains
05:00Sometimes there's shipwrecks on the sea
05:07Mary, you've heard of train wrecks in the mountains
05:09Mary, you must always be careful
05:12Can't you see?
05:17Mary, you must always be careful
05:27Can't you see?
05:30I'm in the deep water
05:31Over my head
05:36You've heard of train wrecks in the mountains
05:38Everyone thought I was smarter
05:41Than to be, way over my head
06:00New Orleans
06:04Others are kept
06:07In Camarillo
06:09It can be
06:18Oh Mary I'm in
06:21Deep waters
06:24And it's way
06:27Over my head
06:33Everyone thought I was
06:37Smarter
06:39To be
06:40To be
06:42In Camarillo
06:51In Camarillo
06:53In Camarillo
07:28In Camarillo
07:31Playing in the sand
07:34With your best friend babe
07:39Malibu
07:40People really know how to live
07:45A castle in the sand
07:47And a lady
07:53And a lady
08:18A hole in her lot
08:20A hole in her lot

10:32To drop
10:38In Camarillo
10:40In Camarillo
10:51In Camarillo
10:52In Camarillo

11:01From Camarillo
11:03That's
11:03In Camarillo
11:03To be
11:03In Camarillo
11:08In Camarillo
11:14Tuck her beneath my cover
11:17Watch her face settle in my damp
11:22I suppose we were lovers
11:26She was good, good to have around
11:33Some things are for keeping the room
11:38Some things are too good and they go
11:44I remember the marketplace in Tangier
11:49Standing there with beggars all around her legs
11:52She looked like an angel from a second story window
11:56Caught a glimpse of someone's life and it was mine
12:00And my face was dark and dirty and I'd been crying
12:09Tuck her beneath your cover
12:13Got a love keeper there
12:15Make love all the time
12:17I suppose we all need lovers
12:22And you know everything comes in time
12:37She looked like an angel
12:53Remember the crearaints and hearts
12:54And thereảs all around her
13:01She flipped it
13:07And I thought she looked likepty
13:33Some robbers, they don't need no
13:37And I love the girls, baby
13:42They come and get you where you are
13:50Somebody's come and stole my black gold drums, baby
13:59You know they took them from my car
14:06Thirty dollar drums, you don't, you know
14:10Bad for me, mom
14:15No, no, only break your arms
14:23Those junky bums, they come steal my black gold drums
14:31Then they put them in their arms
14:38Oh, please be careful what you say
14:47Oh, the man will come and take you away
14:52Watch out, watch out for what you do
15:01I think that they are looking for you
15:07Yeah, yes they are
15:14Oh, the man will come and take you away
15:33Oh, the man will come and take you away
15:38Oh, the man will come and take you away
15:53Some robbers, they don't need no knives or guns, baby
16:02They come and take you away
16:05They come and get you where you are
16:09Those junky bums, they come and steal my black gold drums, baby
16:18Oh, you know, you took them from my car
16:22Oh, the man will come and steal my black gold
16:32Oh, the man will come and steal my black gold
16:39Oh, the man will come and steal my black gold
16:45We've got a little bit of that
17:20Sailing out
17:23One fast spring morn
17:28Sailing
17:29Far out of sight
17:31Of any land
17:34Da, da, da, da, da, da
17:37I spied a mermaid
17:40Sitting on the rock
17:43With a comb
17:45And a glass
17:47In her hand
17:48With a comb in her hand
17:50Just a mermaid
17:53She sprang into the deep
17:58You know to see
18:00Again to roam
18:07So, oh, sail a boy
18:10Struggling in the deep
18:13He was safe on the shore
18:18He was safe on the shore
18:20Well, the first on deck
18:22Yes, the first on deck
18:24The captain of the ship
18:27Good-looking, good-looking
18:32Good-looking man was here
18:36Said that we might sink
18:38Or we might scream
18:42Yeah, it would light me down
18:45To the bottom of the sea
18:49And I'll have a wine
18:53Three little babes

19:10Seas rise
19:12I'll be down
19:14To the bottom
19:16Of the sea
19:17The bottom of the sea
19:19Well, the next on deck

20:20Genevieve
20:22Laid bleeding in my basement
20:27Misconceiving life again
20:32Up on the side
20:34Water replacement
20:38Waiting to be skinned
20:43Bobby wants a lady
20:46From the lowlands
20:49And I'd like to have one too
20:55Oh, you said one in the bush
20:58Worth two in your hand
21:01Even then you'll find
21:03There are too few
21:07Genevieve lay dreaming
21:09On my ceiling
21:12I thought there came
21:14Rolling stones across
21:15Her mind
21:18Looking down
21:20With a great feeling
21:24I'll trade you yours
21:27For mine
21:30Kissed, tried to sing in choirs
21:32Hear the audience cry
21:36Upstairs they say
21:38There's too much noise
21:42I tell the lady
21:44We'll be quiet
21:47She knows
21:49She knows boys will be born
22:16Janet, Janet, Janet, Janet

22:24You'll get your weight
22:24Next time around
22:28Subtract the form
22:30Up from the ladder
22:33You're fatter than
22:35When you were found
22:39Genevieve, baby
23:01Somewhere down the beach
23:04She's sleeping
23:07Sleeping in the arms
23:10Sleeping in the arms
23:10An old friend
23:12Here in the city's heat
23:15I'm weeping
23:18Keeping the night
23:20What would you get
23:27Floating down the beach
23:29Her laughter
23:33Someone's laughing
23:34With the girl
23:36That I used to be after
23:38And it's me
23:40That I'm deceiving
23:43Believing that this
23:45Couldn't be the end
23:52Somewhere down the beach
23:54She has a house of her own
23:57Alone
24:03Out of reach
24:05Out of reach
24:06She won't even answer
24:08Her telephone
24:09Down alone

24:16Things are cooler
24:17In my castle
24:20Love and kisses
24:22All around here

32:24By the way.
