Troubled, the man, that spins uncontrolled,
settle down your soul, settle down your soul
ole’ dust devil, won’t be consoled
settle down your soul, settle down your soul
Troubled, the man, that wrestle with the wind
settle down your soul, settle down your soul
ole’ dust devil, never will give in
settle down your soul, settle down your soul
Troubled, the man who don’t look back
settle down your soul, settle down your soul
ole’ dust devil, sweepin’ up his track
settle down your soul, settle down your soul

Pilgrim

The pilgrim came from far away
Down by the river’s side
Taking a look around he sees
His illusion in the breeze
The water deep and the water wide
Down by the riverside
He swore, by God, he’d make a stand
In the country of endless sand
The pilgrim cursed the water ways
Down by the riverside
Made him a plan to build a barge
One dollar was the crossing charge
There’s not much trade on this desert trail
Down by the river’s side
The sun shines hot and the days drag on
And he hums a spiteful song
When angry men meet angry men
Down by the rivers side
Denied his silver, got paid in lead
The rivers now streaked in red
A long time now he’s turned to soap
Down by the river side
An angry life, There’s no repeats
What’s carried is what you keep

War

Already started carrying on, war is what they want
Set their ships to sailin’, get everybody on
Already they’ve started carrying on, and War is in the air
Somebody’s got a plan now somebody’s gonna’ pay
Beat the drums now loudly, so everyone can hear
Somebody’s got a plan now and somebody’s gonna’ pay
Already their talking vengeance, vengeance what they want
Already their talking waring now and waring will be done
They really don’t mind to sacrifice, everything that you’ve got
Everybody’s talking waring, and waring’s goin’ on
Already their talking vengeance, vengeance what they want
Already their talking waring now and waring will be done

Faith
03:53
|

One more prank at the county fair,
One more toast to the friends we all cherish,
One more song from your favorite country singer
Saying, “I hear that train a coming”
One more ride in your Cadillac,
One more night that you would never give back
One more day I would ask you to stay
But I know you must be going
You wanna just think, that the good times will just never end
You wanna have faith, that it’s all is comin’ round again
But you can’t believe that the life of the party has past
Just like that, so fast, so fast
One more plan to change the world now
One more pair of high heeled shoes for you to wear now
One more kiss as the camp fire blazes on us now
You’re the one to try anything now,
Your’re the one to say, don’t stop your dreamin’
Got to hit the road now, you can hear that train a callin’
You wanna just think, that the good times will just never end
You wanna have faith, that its all is comin’ round again
But you can’t believe that the life of the party has passed,
Just like that, so fast, so fast,
You never feel safe that you’ve given it all that you’ve got
If you’re lookin’ for faith, go get it from someone who’s got it
And you can’t believe the life of the party has past,
Just like that, so fast, so fast, so fast, so fast.

Wastelands of Yesterday
03:32
|
|||
|
Down the longest trail to heartache
Squandered youth along the way
The Buzzards pick my joy-bones clean
In a wasteland of yesterday—
In a wasteland of yesterday.
I go to bed just out of habit
I know good men can drown in dreams
So I fight to stay awake all night
In the rip tides of memories
In the rip tides of memories.
Down the steepest trail to heartache
I’m not predator, I’m prey,
I don’t dare face God or Satan
In wastelands of yesterday—
In wastelands of yesterday.
With every step out on the edges
I remind myself to breathe
But one breath can last forever
When all your faith is make believe
When all your faith is make believe.
Regrets and second guesses—
they’re for the weak-of-heart --
Don’t deliver me from yesterdays,
until death do us part.
Down the darkest trail to heartache
I don’t curse and I don’t pray
I kiss the myst'ry with a whisper
In wastelands of yesterday―
In wastelands of yesterday.
I kiss the myst'ry with a whisper
In wastelands of yesterday.
Down the darkest trail to heartache

Poor Boys
03:41
|

|
Home of the free and land of the brave
Aren’t you the new, and the old ones too
It’s what you make with an open field
Has it been calling now, calling you
Refrain:
Poor boys in love with summertime
Poor boys just don’t know what to do
You love a game where the ball is free
You play it hard, you cover your ground
Out of the park – straight out of the park
You’re friends and rivals in this angry old town
Refrain:
It’s just a game, it’s just a game that you choose.
You are the heroes of the long summer nights
My simple pleasure on a worn-out chair
You are the idols of the fading light
Refrain:
Home of the free and land of the brave
Aren’t you the new, and the old ones too
It’s what you make with an open field
Has it been calling now, calling you
Has it been calling now, calling you, Callin’ you, Callin’ Callin’
Refrain:

Lord of the Desert
02:59
|
|||
|
I am the lord of desert.
In darkness and light I shall reign
I am the holy one, who brings the heat from freezing winds
I am the son of wilderness, an empty shell of wind and bones
I am the one to smite the fiery sunset with my golden sword
The ground shall shake and all moisture from the land will be wrung out
I command the clouds to race overhead and the rocks shall spit at a wet sky.
And the earth shall undulate in distant heat and ye shall become mirage
I write these words and they paint the desert sand.
I am the Lord of the desert. In blistering sun and icy cold
I am the one who darkens the land and lashes your tents with dust and sand
I am the one who forms black clay, which begets blackbird and then Raven,
King of the passage
I shall reign over many and hold dominion over all emptiness
I am the Lord of the Desert, invisible and immutable
I am the warlord -- formations of Lizards marching across the sand.
I command coyote to beseech the moon to rise.
I am gone and come again
I am gone and come again

Rivers and Vessels
by Joan Shelley
supported by 7 fans who also own “Lord of the Desert”
The sweetness of the harmony and beauty of the tracks made me have to purchase this album. The vocals float like ethereal sprites with compelling warmness yet a certain captivating sadness as well. This is what Americana should sound like... this is what country should sound like... for it's so real and emotionally delivered... yet absolutely gorgeous.
