Temporary Saint
(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

you ask me when I'm gonna return
I ask you "why so much concern?"
the same snakes that drive you from my bed
turn to voices and drive me out of my head
for fourteen days since you been back around
trying to keep my spirits high and my demons down
but, can't you see
you got to save me or set me free

'cause I'm falling in deeper - darkness, my old friend
I'm in deeper - stay with me till the end
deeper - you know I got no restraint
I'm in deeper
and lucky you
you get to be my saint
temporary saint

cleaning up one more time is sure getting old
why don't you bury me like the dirt that's in my soul
what makes you think you could love me, anyway?
ain't nobody told you about the way I operate
ain't nobody told you, baby?
well, I guess that makes you the only one

'cause I'm falling in deeper - darkness, my old friend
I'm in deeper - stay with me till the end
deeper - you know I got no restraint
I'm in deeper
and lucky you, yeh, lucky you
you get to be my saint
temporary saint

angel of mercy, set me free
do you really give a damn for me?

'cause I'm falling in deeper - darkness, my old friend
I'm in deeper - stay with me till the end
deeper - you know I got no restraint
I'm in deeper


Painted Silver Light
(Warren Haynes)
Buzzard Rock Music (BMI)

in the painted silver light
I watched you gently move
now, in the cold early dawn
I long to have that vision in my head again
conjure, as I may, my guilt won't let me sleep
now I know what it means
to have and to hold
to let go and to lose

CHORUS
in the screaming silence
I try to lose myself
but there is no hiding place
no hiding place

here they come again
those voices, they'll be with me till the end
maybe it helps the pain
how would I know?
I never slow down long enough
but, ain't life funny
I don't know if I will ever see you again
but, in the painted silver light
I watched you
and I'll keep on watching you

CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS

seven days I watched the sun come rising
no sleep for the wicked
seven nights I lie awake
while my mind drifted across valley and streams
shadows everywhere
still I search for some kind of sign
but, in the painted silver light
I'll come running
running

CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS

Say you try
But you just can't help your self
Say you wanna feel special
Man wanna make you feel like everybody else
Take away your freedom
Strip away your pride
Say you know you weren't born
With the blue blood son
So take your place in line

Where's my mule?
Where's my forty acres
Where's my dream
Mr Emancipator
To live this way
I might as well meet my maker
Where's my mule?
Where's my mule?

I say trust me
But you say it's too much bother
Yeah, the way the man try to beat you down
Make you wanna kill your brother
So go on and bust me
For what's in my mason jar
Yeah, I owes my soul
To the company store
How I'm doing so far?

Where's my mule?
Where's my forty acres
Where's my dream
Mr Emancipator
Live this way
Might as well meet my maker
Where's my mule?
Where's my mule?

Where's my mule?
Where's my forty acres
Where's my dream
Mr Emancipator
Live this way
Might as well meet my maker
Where's my, my, my, my, my, my mule?
