An Odd Bet

An Odd Bet

 

Harley Davidson black leather jacket hot blonde holding tight                    

Cruising down the freeway on the way to the bar or a fight                          

My Mustang motor roared I was feeling well under my age                        

Put the pedal to the floor and passed the biker in a rage                               

 

At best it was an odd bet

Life is a chance sometimes you regret

Trick of the thing is to get better yet

At best it was an odd bet

 

I flipped the biker the finger disregarding the danger

The day was already strange and it was just getting stranger

I yelled out the window loud as I could “How does my dust taste!!??!”

I had put down all of my cards the last one a dirty ace

 

At best it was an odd bet

Life is a chance sometimes you regret

Trick of the thing is to get better yet

At best it was an odd bet

 

Ever since the Neanderthal survival was the primary game

A man can always turn the other cheek but that carries shame

The biker was coming up quickly sickly out of his mind

Anger mixed with ample hatred made both of the dude’s eyes blind

 

At best it was an odd bet

Life is a chance sometimes you regret

Trick of the thing is to get better yet

At best it was an odd bet

 

In the great prairies the coyote hunts the sacred buffalo

Life is for the living but please enjoy the show

If things always made sense then logic would be king

I turned up the radio and let Buddy Holly sing

 

So he pulled up next to me cursing some foul words full of jive

I blew him a kiss and proceeded to pull out my forty-five

There is a moment of deepest reason when peace conquers war

In a flash as if in a mad crash I saw the man no more

 

At best it was an odd bet

Life is a chance sometimes you regret

Trick of the thing is to get better yet

At best it was an odd bet

I’m Coming Home

I’m Coming Home

 

Goodbyes are sad so Grace silently slipped away

Searching for dreams of eternal sunny days

Somewhere out there in this crazy world of ours

Grace would find her place among heaven’s stars

 

And in guarded moments all alone

A voice whispered I’m coming home

Those were the best times I’ve ever known

Maybe someday I’m coming home

 

Hustling bustling serving cold beers to old men

Lost in the daze of do you remember when

Honest work always comes with an honest price

So unhappy inside came the same advice

 

And in guarded moments all alone

A voice whispered I’m coming home

Those were the best times I’ve ever known

Maybe someday I’m coming home

 

Another town another year chasing those shadows

If she had wings she’d have gone where the wind blows

One day she looked in the mirror in surprise

It was finally time to face those wicked lies

 

And in guarded moments all alone

A voice whispered I’m coming home

Those were the best times I’ve ever known

Maybe someday I’m coming home

 

She had read the story of the prodigal son

But it wasn’t the same thing that’s she’d done

Forgiveness truth be told takes a life time

And some words well sadly they never rhyme

 

What would she say would she scream or maybe cry

Could she confront the evil behind the lie

The taxi was driving down familiar roads

Grace had an iron cross such a heavy load

 

And in guarded moments all alone

A voice whispered I’m coming home

Those were the best times I’ve ever known

Maybe someday I’m coming home

Grace

 Grace

 

You blessed me with the day I’m living                    

Saying son try to be forgiving                                    

Once I walked the winding road                                

The burden of sin a heavy load                                  

 

Grace is free

Grace and mercy

You’ll never desert me

Grace is free

 

Some songs they will never end my friend

There’s another verse around each bend

The wind whistles words of fire

Each note takes us a little higher

 

Grace is free

Grace and mercy

You’ll never desert me

Grace is free

 

Darling it’s almost time to put on your angel wings

The earth of our birth is not what the future brings

Heaven is our home hanging with the King of Kings

In every rhyme there is a crime oh how it stings

 

Faith is just the courage to walk on

One day all we know will be gone

Save the love that we did share

Tomorrow beckons I’ll meet you there

 

Grace is free

Grace and mercy

You’ll never desert me

Grace is free

 

Streets of gold or at least I am told

We’ll be happy never growing old

Time and space lose all meaning

Where every moment is a beginning

 

Grace is free

Grace and mercy

You’ll never desert me

Grace is free
