From Hillbilly Heaven, To Honky Tonk Hell
(michael huffman/woody mullis/mike geiger)
On a hillside in hazzard
Sets a new double-wide
Gods little acre
Your paradise
A poor boy found heaven
With a good country girl
He had all he wanted
She was his whole world
But working the coal mine
Can wear a man down
He started spending
Too much time in town
He found temptation
Fell under its spell
And hillbilly heaven
Went to honky tonk hell
From hillbilly heaven
To honky tonk hell
From a warm home fire burning

Ordinary Man
Try to understand
Im not your ordinary man, still I cant deny
You go with me everywhere
When Im dreamin you still share my lonely nights
Try to see my side
Its not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin me on
Its that lonesome, restless feelin that you feel under the gun
And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm
And as I wander to the cities and the towns
I get so lonesome knowin you could be around
And when the show is over, theres a holiday motel
Another empty bottle and another tale to tell
Try to comprehend
Im not your ordinary friend at the end of my life
I would pray that I could be
Returning to the shelter of your love
Try to see my side
Its not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin me on
Its that lonesome, restless feelin that you feel under the gun
And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm

He Forgot That It Was Sunday
The motel lights were blinkin
On my chartreuse four door lincoln
On the dock the fish were stinkin
I simply didnt have a care
And the old men sit round the cracker barrels
The children hum their christmas carols
The train tracks all run parallel
But theyll all meet up one day
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
Sits the devil playing pocket pool
Hes waiting for the next poor fool
Who forgot that it was sunday
We used to tell each other lies
With our orange plastic button eyes
In a former life on a motel chair
I was charlie parkers teddy bear
Yeah, me and bird wed stay up late
I used to watch him contemplate
While his horn would sit by the window and
Wait till it was time for him to blow it

Low Life
Ive been on my best behaviour
My conscience is a little too clean
My halos just a little too tight now
Im tired of the old routine
So baby lets get down and dirty
Forget about right from wrong
I wanna sleep in a cheap motel room
With nothing but the tv on
We need a little of the low life
To keep our feet on the ground
Just a little of the low life
Sooner or later we gotta get down to the low life
Yeah !
Well I dont wanna talk religion
Dont wanna talk politics
I dont wanna talk at all babe
I just wanna get my kicks
So cmon baby let your hair down
You can chuck your pearls out the door
Just a little black lace and a smile on your face

Blue Motel Room
Ive got a blue motel room
With a blue bedspread
Ive got the blues inside and outside my head
Will you still love me
When I call you up when Im down
Here in savannah its pouring rain
Palm trees in the porch light like slick black cellophane
Will you still love me
When I call you up when I get back to town
I know that youve got all those pretty girls coming on
Hanging on your boom-boom-pachyderm
Will you tell those girls that youve got german measles
Honey, tell them youve got germs
I hope youll be thinking of me
Because Ill be thinking of you
While Im traveling home alone
Tell those girls that youve got joni
Shes coming back home
Ive got road maps
From two dozen states

To All The Girls
Intro:
Yo, wyclef, its time that I confess (refugee camp) to all the girls
(dont do it, dont do it)
*singing* to all the girls I loved before
*rapping* to all the girls I cheated on before
*singing* to all the girls I loved before
* verse 1
To all the girls I cheated on before, I tip my hat like willie nelson
You got pressure, take a sip of this molson
Heres what happened, it wasnt my intentions
To fall into seduction while playing a temptation
I thought I had it figured out, but games dont last
The hourglass ran out, I got sprayed with the tear gas
Big men dont cry, hold my feelings inside
Stress brings me ? , I gotta hold my pride
When I see you with another guy, jealous thoughts of homicide
Call me selfish when I say abraham has many wives
You say this is the 90s, either its gonna be me or her
I found myself in a blur
Lookin into the clouds thinkin out loud

Charles Bukowski is a poet who "sings" in his poems the voices of all travelers around the world. It's a cigarette lit over the years, millions bottles with beer, miles and hundreds of romances with motel lovers. It is one of the most emotioning voices you can read.
