Goin' To Brownsville
(John Estes, adapted by Ry Cooder)
I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road
Well, I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road
And I ain't gonna stop walking till I get in sweet mama's door
The girl I'm loving she's got great long curly hair
The girl I'm loving she's got great long curly hair
And her mama and her papa well, they sure don't allow me there
If you catch my jumper (?), babe, hanging upside your wall
Well, if you catch my jumper (?), babe, hanging upside your wall
Well, you know by that I need my ashes hauled
I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road
I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road
And I ain't gonna stop walking till I get in sweet mama's door

Whiskeyn Mama
Im so tired, you on my head.
Whiskeyn mama, you shouldnt have said
You wanted me to be your lover true,
Then turn around and treats me just likes you do.
I should have known better than to fool with a whiskeyn mama.
Now I could be right and could be wrong,
You been layin out all night long.
You telephoned this mornin, said youd be home soon.
The doorman said he seen you at the club blue lagoon.
I should have known better than to fool with a whiskeyn mama.
Whiskeyn mama, you standin there
With your curly hair
Just to have you do me good.
I know you could if you only would.
Whiskeyn mama, you standin there

Just to have you do me good.

Is Your Mama Gonna Miss Ya?
I might as well bin blind
Thought I owned this world and all its time
Made up my mind not to love again
Live my life a single man
Lady luck she came my way
Turned my night into day
She went huff and blew my little house down
She went puff ya she spun me around
She played rough ya she took me to town
All I did was fool around
And my whole world came tumblin' down
Is your mama gonna miss ya now you're gone?
Is your mama gonna miss her little rollin' stone?
Is mama gonna cry now she's alone?
Cause mama's little girl ain't goin' home!
Ya-she's goin' with me
I couldn't be found - couldn't be heard
You couldn't trap this free bird
I loved to fly shoulda heard me sing
You came along and flapped your wings
Had my eyes on the road foot on the floor
Tell me "hey who's that knockin' at my door?"
She went huff and blew my little house down
She went puff ya she spun me around
She played rough ya she took me to town
All I did was fool around
And my whole world came crumblin' down
Is your mama gonna miss ya now you're gone?
Is your mama gonna miss her little rollin' stone?
Is mama gonna cry now she's alone?
Cause mama's little girl ain't goin' home!
I said stop and she said go
Looks so good I can't say no
Now we've gone and lost control.

Mama, Dont Treat Your Daughter Mean
(ry cooder)
Hey, mama, dont you treat your daughter mean
Hey, mama, dont you treat your daughter mean
cause you treat her so mean and shes only sweet sixteen
It was late last friday evening, when everything was still
I heard somebody calling my name outside my window sill
I got up and I looked outside strainin my eyes to see
And my heart went wild when I realized just who was calling me
I hollered
Hey, mama, dont you treat your daughter mean
Hey, mama, dont you treat your daughter mean
cause you treat her so mean and shes only sweet sixteen
Now, her eyes were blazing up at me
Her hair was black as night
And her naked skin shone like gold
Out in the pale moonlight
She took my hand and she pulled me down
Where the grass had grown up tall
The she moved her body all around
Just like a cannon ball
Hey, mama, dont you treat your daughter mean
Hey, mama, dont you treat your daughter mean
cause you treat her so mean and shes only sweet sixteen
Yonder comes your mama, girl, cross the field
Runnin and a-shakin like an automobile
Daddys got a shotgun in his hand
They just dont understand
The first time I seen that sweet girl
She was runnin home from sunday school
And the next time I seen that sweet little girl
Was when she broke her mamas rule
But the last time I seen that sweet little girl
She was filled with a strange desire
Rollin and tumblin out on the cold wet ground
Her skin burnin up just like a cane fire
She called my name a thousand ways
The tears came streaming down her face
But just when I was bout to blow my stack
Her daddy came a-creepin and a-crawlin up behind
And he shot me in the back

Catfish John (studio Outtake)
Mama said, "Don't go near that river,
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John."
Come in the morning I'd always be there,
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn.
Take me back to another morning, to a time so long ago,
When the sweet magnolia blossomed, cotton fields as white as snow.
Catfish John was a river hobo who lived and died by the river's bed,
Looking back I still remember I was proud to be his friend.
Mama said, "Don't go near that river,
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John."
Come in the morning I'd always be there,
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn.
Born a slave in the town of Vicksburg, traded for a chestnut mare,
Lord her never spoke in anger though his load was hard to bear.
Mama said, "Don't go near that river,
Come in the morning I'd always be there,
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn.
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn

If I had money
Tell you what I'd do
I'd go downtown
Buy a Mercury or two
I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury
Ohh I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
Cruise it up and down the road
Well, I had me a girl
Stole her from a friend
Friend got lucky
Stole her back again
Cause she thought he had a Mercury
Ohh she thought he had a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
Cruise it up and down the road

Well, hey now mama
Lookin' so fine
Cruisin' round

Ooo, I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

Cruise it up and down the road
My girl went out
Didn't stay long
Bought herself a Mercury
And Cruised it on home
Cause she know I have a Mercury
Ohh she know I have a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
Cruise it up and down the road

Well, hey now mama
Lookin' so fine

Mama Is A Crazy Girl
Mama is a crazy girl,
my children sometimes sing;
when Mama dances on the table
snakes hanging from her head.
When Mama's friends wear business suits,
her Mama is the rage
of teenage girls who want her clothes,
tie-dyed, faux fur, and mesh.
Mama is a crazy girl
when she says what's in her heart;
when others only whisper,
Mama can't hold back a shout.
At cocktail parties, mama smiles
and politely chits and chats,
while seeking an accomplice
to make a secret pact -
to have some fun wherever she is,
to not let boredom swell,
no silly rules, or performing fools,
her Mama is herself.
Mama is a crazy girl,
a crazy girl,
a crazy girl.
Mama is a crazy girl,
and there's no denying that.
(1989)

Sweet Lucy
I can hear those bedsprings a’squeakin’
From halfway down the block
And how come it gets so quiet, lil’ mama,
When my key rattles in the lock
“You say you ain’t misbehaving” sweet Lucie
But that ain’t the answer I want
Who’s that going out the back door lil’ mama
Whenever I come in the front?
How come your hair’s so pretty
How come you got gloss on your lips
How come’s your eyes are all mascarey
Why’s there sweaty fingerprints on your hips?
I beginning to suspect you might be cheatin’
Imma beginning’ to have my doubt
Imma beginning’ to wonder who’s comin’ in Sweet mamma
The minute I’m goin’ out
I know this ol’ dog shouldn’t be out wagging his tail
Getting’ drunk til’ three in the A.M
But when I come home and you ain’t alone
All I wanta say is DAYUM!
Woman why can’t you understand
That you all on this earth to please us
Don’t wanna cause a ruckus or have to raise my hand
Imma religious man, “Sweet Jesus”
Sweet Lucie, I know Imma a little man
And sometimes I’m not so hot
But what’s just a little bit to you, lil’ Mama
To another could be a whole lot
So let’s both of us stop misbehaving’ Lil’ Mama
Maybe that’s what we both of us want
So there won’t be anybody sneakin’ out the back door
Whenever I’m comin’ in the front!

Mans Road
Written by jimmy webb, 1982
Found on the last unicorn soundtrack and your move (french import only).
Horizon rising up to meet the purple dawn
Dust demon screaming, bring an eagle to lead me on
For in my heart I carry such a heavy load
Here I am on mans road, walking mans road, walking mans road
Im hungry, weary, but I cannot lay me down
The rain comes, dreary, but theres no shelter I have found
It will be a long time till I find my abode
Here I am on mans road, walking mans road
Moon rising, disguising lonely streets in gay displays
The stars fade, the night shade falls and makes the world afraid
It waits in silence for the sky to explode
Here I am on mans road, walking mans road, walking mans road
Walking mans road, walking mans road, walking mans road

Brownsville Girl
Well, there was this movie I seen one time,
About a man riding cross the desert and it starred gregory peck.
He was shot down by a hungry kid trying to make a name for himself.
The townspeople wanted to crush that kid down and string him up by the neck.
Well, the marshal, now he beat that kid to a bloody pulp
As the dying gunfighter lay in the sun and gasped for his last breath.
Turn him loose, let him go, let him say he outdrew me fair and square,
I want him to feel what its like to every moment face his death.
Well, I keep seeing this stuff and it just comes a-rolling in
And you know it blows right through me like a ball and chain.
You know I cant believe weve lived so long and are still so far apart.
The memory of you keeps callin after me like a rollin train.
I can still see the day that you came to me on the painted desert
In your busted down ford and your platform heels
I could never figure out why you chose that particular place to meet
Ah, but you were right. it was perfect as I got in behind the wheel.
Well, we drove that car all night into san anton
And we slept near the alamo, your skin was so tender and soft.
Way down in mexico you went out to find a doctor and you never came back.
I would have gone on after you but I didnt feel like letting my head get blown off.
Well, were drivin this car and the sun is comin up over the rockies,
Now I know she aint you but shes here and shes got that dark rhythm in her soul.
But Im too over the edge and I aint in the mood anymore to remember the times when I was your only man
And she dont want to remind me. she knows this car would go out of control.
Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, youre my honey love.
Well, we crossed the panhandle and then we headed towards amarillo
We pulled up where henry porter used to live. he owned a wreckin lot outside of town about a mile.
Ruby was in the backyard hanging clothes, she had her red hair tied back. she saw us come rolling up in a trail of dust.
She said, henry aint here but you can come on in, hell be back in a little while.
Then she told us how times were tough and about how she was thinkin of bummin a ride back to where she started.
But ya know, she changed the subject every time money came up.
She said, welcome to the land of the living dead. you could tell she was so broken-hearted.
She said, even the swap meets around here are getting pretty corrupt.
How far are yall going? ruby asked us with a sigh.
Were going all the way til the wheels fall off and burn,
til the sun peels the paint and the seat covers fade and the water moccasin dies.
Ruby just smiled and said, ah, you know some babies never learn.
Something about that movie though, well I just cant get it out of my head
But I cant remember why I was in it or what part I was supposed to play.
All I remember about it was gregory peck and the way people moved
And a lot of them seemed to be lookin my way.
Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, youre my honey love.
Well, they were looking for somebody with a pompadour.
I was crossin the street when shots rang out.
I didnt know whether to duck or to run, so I ran.
We got him cornered in the churchyard, I heard somebody shout.
Well, you saw my picture in the corpus christi tribune. underneath it, it said, a man with no alibi.
You went out on a limb to testify for me, you said I was with you.
Then when I saw you break down in front of the judge and cry real tears,
It was the best acting I saw anybody do.
Now Ive always been the kind of person that doesnt like to trespass but sometimes you just find yourself over the line.
Oh if theres an original thought out there, I could use it right now.
You know, I feel pretty good, but that aint sayin much. I could feel a whole lot better,
If you were just here by my side to show me how.
Well, Im standin in line in the rain to see a movie starring gregory peck,
Yeah, but you know its not the one that I had in mind.
Hes got a new one out now, I dont even know what its about
But Ill see him in anything so Ill stand in line.
Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, youre my honey love.
You know, its funny how things never turn out the way you had em planned.
The only thing we knew for sure about henry porter is that his name wasnt henry porter.
And you know there was somethin about you baby that I liked that was always too good for this world
Just like you always said there was something about me you liked that I left behind in the french quarter.
Strange how people who suffer together have stronger connections than people who are most content.
I dont have any regrets, they can talk about me plenty when Im gone.
You always said people dont do what they believe in, they just do whats most convenient, then they repent.
And I always said, hang on to me, baby, and lets hope that the roof stays on.
There was a movie I seen one time, I think I sat through it twice.
I dont remember who I was or where I was bound.
All I remember about it was it starred gregory peck, he wore a gun and he was shot in the back.
Seems like a long time ago, long before the stars were torn down.
Brownsville girl with your brownsville curls, teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world, brownsville girl, youre my honey love.

To get my dinner hot
Went to the door
But the door was locked
Jump through the window
And believe me or not
She hadn't even
Put my dinner into the pot

Yeah, never been evil
And I've never been shy
Every down a champ
And I'm a time by
Down un winner
With my apple in bed
Look out pretty mama

On The Road Again (1966)
Why I married me a bad girl, tell you the reason why
Bad girls will even do things on the sly
Look for your supper to be good and hot
She never even put a stew bone in the pot
She's on the road again, sure as you're born
Natural born easy on the road again
Friend come by, say looking for his hat
Wants to know where your husband's at
I don't know, he's on his way to the pen
Come on pretty mama, let's get on the road again
Went to my house the front door was locked
Went 'round to my window, but my window was locked
Jumped right back, shook my head,
Big old rounder in my folding bed
Jumped into the window, broke the glass
Never seen that little rounder run so fast
Come on pretty mama, let's get on the road again

Two Young Lovers
It was the last day of summer
It was the first of a new romance
He walked into her on the corner
She said, i dont dance
He said, baby let me teach you
She said, o.k., when?
He said, how can I reach you baby
Id really like to see you again
He picked her up on a friday night
He took her for a bite to eat
His heart was beating and his hands were shaking
She thought he was sweet
And he stood on her shoes on the dance floor
Well, they were doing it cheek to cheek
And he walked her home and he kissed her
He was walking on air all week
Well, they couldnt stand to be apart
They couldnt leave one another alone
Her mama used to say, its getting late sweetheart
Its time that boy went home
And upstairs papa kissed mama
And she gave him a sweet caress
He said, heres to the two young lovers
Lets wish em every happiness
It was the last day of summer
They came walking home hand in hand
They went and told her mama
They showed her the wedding band
Mama cried and poured the wine
Papa just said God bless
Now, heres to the two young lovers
Lets wish em every happiness

Lonely Old Road
I went down a lonely old road,
They said was keeping me home,
One day I will know about,
Down that lonely old road I was to be told,
How come no one told me to go down this lonely old road?
I felt that I didn't know anything beyond this lonely old road,
Come to think of it,
I don't because this lonely old road,
Is all I know,
No one told me about this darn lonely old road,
I tried to keep my head held high,
Gravity pressed my head down,
I was walking around,
Saying I'm walking down this lonely old road,
If you should ever see me,
All you have to do is wave that hand of yours,
Telling me to go down this lonely old road,
I might smirk at first,
Because you told me to go down this lonely old road,
But you also heard me out,
Before I went on this journey,
On this lonely old road,
Just know that one day,
I'll get off this lonely old road,
I'll have something to show,
About this lonely old road.
