DAYS OF DEPRESSION
By Shawn Amos
In my days of depression
I could take my hands off the wheel
Let me go where the wind blows
Let me go with the Lord
In my days of depression
With my dark side doublin’ down
Let me go where the wind blows
Let me go with the Lord
May there be no misconception
‘Bout my time with my brother man
Let him know where my heart was
Let him know about my plan
In my days of depression
I could take my hands off the wheel
Let me go where the wind blows
Let me go with the Lord
Let me go where the wind blows
Let me go with the Lord
Let me go where the wind blows
Let me go with the Lord
Let me go where the wind blows
Let me go with the Lord

C’mon and boogie
C’mon and boogie
I ain’t got all night
Keep this thing locked tight

Pour yourself another beer

We’re all sharing the same blues
Now what we gonna do

Be our brothers’ keeper
We’re gonna lead with our hearts
Open our hands from the start

YOUR’RE GONNA MISS ME (WHEN I GET HOME)
By Shawn Amos
You’re gonna miss me when I get home
You’re gonna wish you had thrown that dog a different bone
You just itching for me to stay out late
While you be creeping around eatin’ off a his plate
You’re gonna miss me
You’re gonna miss me
When I get home
I work all damn day and night for you
You take all of my money choke them credit cards blue
I’m gonna take my good thing back
You gonna feel a cold chill at night in the sack
You’re gonna miss me
You’re gonna miss me
When I get home

WILL YOU BE MINE
By Shawn Amos
I’ve been driving
Now I’m here
Baby, can you here me
Loud and clear
You’ve been runnin’ with the wrong me
Let me get you on the right plan
And we’ll go driving
Away from here
Will you be mine
Will you be mine
Will you be mine when my time has come
I’ve been dying
Four long years
I’ve been hiding
All your tears
You’ve been runnin’ with the wrong me
Let me get you on the right plan
And we’re gonna ride, honey
Away from here
Will you be mine
Will you be mine
Will you be mine when my time has come

THE OUTLAW
By Shawn Amos
I looked her up
Yeah, they call me the Outlaw
I was born for raising hell
They call me the Outlaw
I was born for raising hell
Give me six shots of tequila
And that one señorita over there
The good lord may be your savior
But never was no friend of mine
The good lord may be your savior
But never was no friend of mine
I preach the god book of “El Paso”
Keep your boots and your pistol shined
I put one foot in front the other
Ain’t got time for holding hands
Just one foot in front the other
Ain’t got time for holding hands
Yeah, they call me the Outlaw
Save your prayers for another man

HOLLYWOOD BLUES
By Shawn Amos & Mindi Abair
I looked her up
She sat me down
She said you gonna need a friend
If you expect to stick around
So I got my hat
Bought me new shoes
I’m feeling like a million bucks
In my twenty dollar suit
I got the Hollywood Blues
We all wanna be a star
But don’t forget who you are
The Hollywood Blues
This town is it
But is sure is tough
You know you’ll never get it all
But they’ll give you just enough
These folks got gold
At their fingertips
While I’m in my piece of shit
Driving down the Sunset Strip
I got the Hollywood Blues
We all wanna be a star
But don’t forget who you are
The Hollywood Blues
I see that sign
Up on the hill
I’m gonna move myself on up
You know one day I will
I got the looks
I got the fight
You suckas all will be knocked out
When you see my name in lights
I got the Hollywood Blues
We all wanna be a star
But don’t forget who you are
The Hollywood Blues

PUT TOGETHER
By Shawn Amos
With your do rag
Honey, you’re all right
Baby, you’re put together
The way you shay shay
Making me crazy
Baby, you’re put together
I just wanna come home
Baby, can you let me come home
I won’t stay too long if you can just let me get it
The way you’re groovin’
Keepin’ me movin’
Baby, you’re put together
The way you’re back slides
Hurtin’ my insides
Baby, you’re put together
I just wanna come home
Baby, can you let me come home
I won’t stay too long if you can just let me get it

THE LAST DAY I’M LOVING YOU
By Shawn Amos
I’ve paid all the cost and the expense
I’ve stayed past the time of it making sense
But I’ll say one thing in my defense
This is the last day I’m loving you
You got the mojo and the moves to make it hard
To keep my right mind in front and keep me strong
You got them ten dollar words you know how to use
But this is the last day I’m loving you
Oh, the little things of beauty
Are what I’ll take with me
I’ll keep a possibility
That there’s room in your mind, in your heart, and in your soul
We’ve gone past the pint of safe return
And you left me with one to many burns
Still you taught me one thing I needed to learn
That this is the last day I’m loving you
