Leavin’ On My Mind Dave Goodman

Headin’ For A Fall

Sweet Maybelline

Dave Goodman

Brother he was layin’ out on the lawn Deep in narcosis, the neighbors they looked on Clickin’ all their tongues in time with his swan song As he rode away into oblivion

Dave Goodman

Maybelline, Maybelline Come on by and bring morphine There’s a yellow moon on the rise On a cloud we’ll drift serene Like jasmine on the summer breeze Come on over come on Maybelline

I came down the 49 Headed south left my home behind Times were lean some unkind Always leavin’ on my mind ...

Maybelline, Maybelline Come on girl don’t be mean Daddy’s gone away left the key Open up that secret case He’s prescribing us a taste Listen to the doctor Maybelline

Sooner or later the axe is gonna fall With morbid attraction as your witness Sooner or later you’re gonna hit the wall No one will catch you when you’re headin’ for a fall

With a girl like a melody From Lahaina down to Tennessee Then she left me behind Always leavin’ on her mind ...

Caught in wreck, side of the road Headlights still burnin’ they were pointing up skyward Face in the window seen the eyes lookin’ on Hopin’ there to catch a glimpse of oblivion

Times I pray times I sin I would not trade the places I have been Roll and tumble bump and grind Always leavin’ on my mind ...

Out the door, down the lane You can take away my pain Don’t be afraid of me sweet Maybelline Bring one for you and one for me Down the hatch like two for tea Time’s a waistin’ way oh Maybelline

Sooner or later ...

There stood the king high on the wall Pullin’ strings for power, headin’ for a fall All of his horses and his men they all looked on As he tumbled down into oblivion

Like the wind time to blow Don’t look back on the open road Settlin’ dust shackles bind Always leavin’ on my mind ...

And She Said Dave Goodman

Well I took my things, moved to another town Roots couldn’t find the water, I could not settle down I drifted on streets that I can’t name When they don’t have a meaning they all look the same On the avenues and the alleys, in the still of the night I heard the words she whispered softly like a light Oh, and she said, better days on the road ahead Oh, and she said, better days ahead Oh, and she said, don’t look back, just look ahead Oh, and she said, better days ahead Well the years wore on, they wore on me too I could not find an answer, nothing I could do Step by step on the road I stayed I never once stopped hoping there would come a day On the avenues ...

Oh, and she said ...

To a town I came where she took me in The slow dive in Cotati, I don’t know where I’ve been As I stepped inside from the rainy street I could see the light now and I could feel the heat Oh, and she said ...

e Shack Dave Godman

He was cold, with a heart like a stone Out in the sticks in a shack The more time takes me further away The more I keep going back Dark old man with the heavy hand Hard words and whiskey on his tongue Was there for me to show me the way What should be said and be done On and on the old man raved As he drank himself to the grave I left that shack and I washed my hands But I can’t wash away the old man Years flew by in the wink of an eye Lines carved into stone With me now like sweat on my brow And through me down to the bone I hear him staggering up the steps In from out of the cold She’d whisper to him man you look grim And his hard words made her grow old

Goodbye Gary Dave Goodman

Checkin’ out checkin’ out, when the blues is doggin’ you Checkin’ out checkin’ out, when the blues is doggin’ you Gotta move gotta move, ‘fore the dust hits your shoes Checkin’ out when the blues is doggin’ you Gotta ride gotta ride, gotta ride right outa here Gotta ride gotta ride, gotta ride right outa here Rollin’ and tumblin’ , ain’t no time to shed no tears Gotta ride, gotta ride right outa here

On and on ...

Goodbye, goodbye, how I hate to see you go Goodbye, goodbye, how I hate to see you go Sun come up this mornin’, blue and green and gold How I hate to see you go

I hear his voice high in the pines I still feel the back of his hand High on the hill he’s lying still He tells me he’s still my old man

Leavin in the mornin’, leave the key right by the door Leavin in the mornin’, leave the key right by the door People know I’m gettin’ ready, catch that train I gotta go Leave the key right by the door 6

Leave It All Behind Dave Goodman

Thinkin’ ‘bout the years, how they’re passin’ by Spent so many wanderin’, always on the fly Now I’m hangin’ on by threads to dreams that will not die Slippin’ through my fingers gotta leave it a all behind Had a little angel, her name was Annie Jo We lived upon the Redhill where the wind did blow One day she left though I hadn’t been unkind She had to walk away, she had to leave it all behind In a changin’ world it’s hard to find the way Hangin’ onto dreams as they fade away Some you gotta keep, some ‘ll rob you blind Sometimes you gotta stop, you gotta leave it all behind I went to the river, I had to take a ride Though I always saw it I couldn’t reach the other side My boat was takin’ water, didn’t put me in a bind I jumped into another, had to leave it all behind 7

Maybe she’s afraid Dave Goodman

Hard, hard words, such a cold, cold heart And they cut right through me, tore me apart And she followed me, with the icy eyes No kind words, no surprise I wanted to meet half way, when the cheque arrived no one paid Maybe she’s afraid, maybe she’s afraid Behind a wall she made Maybe she’s afraid Man I been thinkin’, and I been wondering why Do I keep comin’ back here, do I still wanna try When the ship is goin’ down, down, down In the wine dark sea And she’s the only one, who can rescue me I’m on the deck, I’m outa’ time, man, I wish to God she’d throw me a line Maybe she’s afraid ...

I could be a fool, readin’ all the wrong signs She got so much hate by an ocean of love, in between a fine line And if there was no love, she’d be gone by now But man I’m freezin’ cold she could heat me up She just don’t know how We had a deal the plan was laid, did I let her down maybe she’s afraid Maybe she’s afraid ...

This one gonna fly, on the wind she gonna sail I just can’t hold on to a tiger by the tail Photo:

Well I held her in my arms, thinkin’ love was here to stay I never would believe I’d be hurtin’ like today Hurtin’ like today
