never to wander far
never to fall
never to be afraid
never be scared
to see your smiling eyes I
knew it was meant

it was never just a show
I only wanted you to be
I only wanted you to see

clean on over to Poplar Creek, swingin' on vines
Nobody knew her name, nobody knew his either
She always left flowers

what a Dead Man Holler sounded like
just a swingin' in the breeze

Took the streets from a single home
She's say: I'll love you like a mother

Met this guy, twice her age
Did I say she was undeniable
Yeh, he says, I really loved her, like a mother
I really loved you, just like your mother

I've travelled far and wide through many different time

I've travelled far and wide through prisons of the cross
 What did you see there
the power of glory and sin
 What did you see there
the blood of Christ on their skin
I've travelled far and wide through unknown halls of time

I've travelled far and wide through unknown halls of time
 What did you see there
I saw the one sided trials
 What did you see there
I saw the tears as they cried
they had tears in their eyes

No time was everytime
and space and nothing
is all there is             
                       
There's a thing        
Like light, that shines
even in dark spaces    
all the time           
                       
There was still time   
When there was no time 
and space and nothing
is all there is
                       
There's a thing        
Like light, that shines
even in dark spaces

 Feeding on the Leaves of Grass, drinking up the sunny rays
 Standing with my feet apart

 Eyes active everywhere
 do you know the hand signs here

I didn't cross two days,    to see the end of time

Mama was a Hooters Girl
     two step in C, vamps in G (Ray Stevens-y)
 
     Mama was a Hooters Girl
     "Well hello there boys, see something you like?
      I could get you a menu,but I think I know what you want"
     (chorus)

     That's right, Mama was a Hooters Girl, just not how you think
     see she was pushin 3 quarters give or take some change when
     she decided to pack up all her Conasta playing girlfriends
     and see what that hooters thing was about

     so she packed up the car with 6 little bitties, I don't know
     if there were 3 in the front and 3 in the back, but you wouldn't
     anything about bench seats anymore so maybe there were only 2 up front
     and one of the little bitties stayed home, so imagine this
     there's a half ton of bitties, well that's not nice, cause some little
     bitties aren't that big, so there's a quarter ton of bitties in the car
     and let's see...carry the 9, and there's how many... ok, so there's
     over a third of a millenium, and a quarter ton of bitties rolling down the
     road going for that Early Bird Special, 'cause you learn to take advantage
     of that Early Bird Special, and I apologize to Jimmy Castor, going:
     (vamp)
    "Goin to the Hooters,Goin to the Hooters,Goin to the Hooters,right on!"

     so they get to the hooters and of course the girls all love'em, set'em up
     right, get'em shirts, and they're thinkin "Well I don't see what the big
     deal is, this place is kinda nice"

     about the time my mom put on her hooters shirt, some young buckaroos
     show up at the door, now if you'll just imagine, these boys were probably
     driving over, and once again I apologize to Jimmy Castor and the
     Jimmy Castor Bunch, going:
     (vamp)
     "Goin to the Hooters,Goin to the Hooters,Goin to the Hooters,right on!"

     so they walk into that hooters, and my mom, with her hooters shirt on,
     my mom walks up to them, and what momma said

     (chorus)
     Mama was a Hooters Girl
     "Well hello there boys, see something you like?
      I could get you a menu,but I think I know what you want"
 
     Now I know what you're thinkin, you're wondering about, you want to know
     Did the Early Bird...
     
     (chorus)
     Mama was a Hooters Girl
     "Well hello there boys, see something you like?
      I could get you a menu,but I think I know what you want"

     not in any active way, mind you
     just lying on the couch wrapt in my own insecurities 
     the cost of living is too high

     Half a mile away, it was half a mile away
     she lives, wipe the blood from my face

     Hope is killing me
     We're all dying to live
     we're all living to die
     How could something so right go so wrong

     Half a mile away, it was half a mile away
     she lives, wipe the blood from my face

     there's a brain cloud from the East
     it's going West tailed by stem

     nonesuch lies on the horizon
     my possesions close around
     if you don't open your eyes
     you'll never see what's lost and what is found

     remember Volcano Joe,
     remember America's Sweetheart
     there's a brain cloud from the East,
