Number 10

Low-light moonlight comes through my window
But these steel bars spoil the view
You know that jailer thinks i'm guilty
He don't know that i'm passing through
Ain't no service in this prison
Ain't no women i can see
Doin' my time now, i been waiting
For that jailer, set me free
Lord that jailer, walks around here
Like he owns my very soul
You know that jailer's got the key
Be so easy, let me go

Whatever happened to ole what's-her-name
She used to be the big part of my game
Now she's gone, but her passion is still in me
I still remember the way she wore her hair
Man, we used to go most everywhere
Now she's gone, but her passion still lies in me
Some call her a shady lady, others around her
All i know, is i'm sure glad i found her
Even though she's gone, her passion still is in me
They say she drifted on to another place
You know i just can't forget her face
Even though she's gone, her passion still lies in me

Down the road, and up the hill
Round the bend, and behind the mill
When just a kid i used to go
To a place called shady grove
That is where i first met her
She changed my life with one just one word
She called it love but i don't know
I call it goin' down to shady grove
Shady grove, shady grove
In the middle of shady grove
Sometimes we'd steal away at night
All the same the feel was right
There was no city, there was no town
'cause shady grove was all around
We'd just lay down look up and see
The vast expanse of the old, old tree
When our love had turned to lust
Shady grove would cover us
Shady grove, shady grove
In the middle of shady grove
No one would ever come by
We were young and very shy
It seemed to wrap around us both
The place we called shady grove
Not long ago to my surprise
I seemed to have to go back
I went back to that same old spot
The trees were gone - it's a parking lot
Shady grove, shady grove
In the middle of shady grove

She hangs around with another guy
I met only yesterday
He's a hard cold cooker, a fine looker
He took that woman away
He took my woman away
She's in love, she's in love with another man
That's the way it goes
She's in love, she's in love with another man
A hard cold cooker, he really shook her
If you see her, it really shows
He drives a fine set of wheels, let me tell you
He's got diamonds in his ears
He's a real jim-dandy, with her he's so handy
Such a scene, make you break out in tears
Such a scene, make you break out in tears
She's in love, she's in love with another man
That's the way it goes
She's in love, she's in love with another man
A hard cold cooker, he really shook her
If you see her, it really shows
If you see her, tell her i still love her
No matter what, no matter when
It will be a good day when he goes away
And she comes back round again
And she comes back round again
She's in love, she's in love with some other man
That's the way it goes
She's in love, she's in love with another man
A hard cold cooker, he really shook her
If you see her, it really shows

I got the digital blues, my soul is just another number
I got the digital blues, my soul is just another number
You check it out, we're all the same
You check it out, we're one again
I got the digital blues, my soul is just another number
Three forty-four point six, is that really me
Three forty-four point six, you're kidding me
How did we get into the shape we're in
I check it out, i'm one again
I got the digital blues, my soul is just another number
In the year thirty-two thirty-two, how will they remember me
In the year thirty-two thirty-two, how will they remember me
My appetite will be a digital code
Information in the new code
I got the digital blues, my soul is just another number
I got the digital blues, my soul is just another number

A man knocked upon my door said
"don't you know you're gonna die some day
And i got a plan for you man, for when you pass away
We'll give to your mother, your kids and your wife
And all you have to give in return is your life"
Take out some insurance, insurance today
For tomorrow will come and take us away
Two men were gamblin' in a parlour one night
When a woman walked in with her dress up so tight
She asked the two gentlemen would they fight for her name
They got up and shot her and went back to their game
Take out some insurance, insurance today
For tomorrow will come and take us away
This ain't no sad song, don't cry in your beer
For one day will come and we won't be here
Somebody else will take up our game
Different place, different name
Take out some insurance, insurance today
For tomorrow will come and take us away
For tomorrow will come and take us away
