Well I guess I’ve got nothing to say girl You’ve taken all my words away You know that it’s a beautiful day girl I wish that you could spend it with me Well I’ll never have the courage to tell you I wish you only knew While you’re out lovin’ life I’m lovin’ you Well I dream about the day that you’re mine girl I dream about the day that you see That I think about you all of the time girl When you’ve probably never thought about me But I’ll never have the courage to tell you I wish you only knew While you’re out lovin’ life I’m lovin’ you Well you know that I’ve been thinking about you I think about you every day And I know I couldn’t make it without you But I know that you’d be fine without me Well I’ll never have the courage to tell you I wish you only knew While you’re out lovin’ life I’m lovin’ you I’m lovin’ you, Yeah!

She found him with his head in his hands Tired and lost he could barely stand She'd whisper things into his ears Most men wait their lives to hear Light, Oh light up my life Let the wind flow through your hair As I say, Light, Oh light up the night Your eyes glow and they always care And I will write tales of love and ancient lore And I will sail you to those farther shores And I will, I promise you and I swear I will, with tenderness and care. Street lights that greet the sight Of tired eyes and lonely smiles here And, cobble-stones that linger longer Than the lights that guide you to her Light, Oh light up my life Let the wind flow through your hair As I say, Light, Oh light up the night Your eyes glow and they always care And I will make you smile and warm my days And I will take you where the silence plays The part in my heart that I hold there for you Dearest of loves I will always be true To you.

She had black mojo, she had sugar candy eyes She had a dark black dress that tightly traced her thighs She found me slight of step and soft on my feet And I knew as I leaned in she'd follow me to the street She swayed in the soft Sun with her eyes cast within And she'd lace every evening with her rush under my skin She had a taste for crazy, No! and she was ice in my veins And as I drew free from her lies her hooks came in again Silver smoke fills the air (She shoots through my heart) I never see her there (She's down in the park) I'm being chased in my dreams (Never to part) The feeling's creeping again-but it's alright. She was the Serpent Queen with her taste of sour wine She stole the lighter side then she hung me out to dry Shady as the conman freedom swayed through the wall And in reflection of your confinement towards her you crawl Silver smoke fills the air (She shoots through my heart) I never see her there (She's down in the park) I'm being chased in my dreams (Never to part) The feeling's creeping again-but it's alright.

I’ve got so many things on my plate I’m going crazy Love, love what I do Just not today I’ve got too many rules here to break I feel like I’m trapped here Love, love where I am Just not today Love, love in your life Love what you do Love if you like Learn, learning to like All things in time I had all the right answers before Now I can’t think straight Love, love all the things I used to say I had something in which I believed Now I’ve lost sight of it Love, love all the things I used to see Love, love in your life Love what you do Love if you like Learn, learning to like All things in time Learn, learning to like All things in time

Well I think it’s kind of funny that we’re only having fun Just the other day I thought of us, and I thought you were the one Now they said that it was foolish stepping back but not away Well I like the sex and coffee but I’m missing you today Now I’m feeling kind of sour at the same time oh so sweet When you tell me there’s another girl that I’m supposed to meet Now I’m trying hard to leave you, yes I’ll try the best I can I just wish that I could tell you that I want you back again Girl, girl that I love Girl that I can’t stop thinking of You’re the one that I need You keep me so close Yet out of reach Won’t you tell me where you’re going? Won’t you tell me how you’ve been? Girl I know that I’m a loser but I can’t lose everything You say that you’re a free bird and you’ve only found your wings Can I fly with you tomorrow? ‘Cus of you my bird can sing. Girl, girl that I love Girl that I can’t stop thinking of You’re the one that I need You keep me so close Yet out of reach Girl, girl that I love Girl that I can’t stop thinking of You’re the one that I need You keep me so close Yet out of reach

I know she loves me Found out today It’s far above me Far and away I never thought that she could love Anyone like me But my wish came true She loves me too She loves me too It’s overwhelming It’s in my head Feels like I’m dreaming Or maybe dead I never thought that she could love Anyone like me But my wish came true She loves me too She loves me too Come as you will Leave it all to chance and reason Can’t you see that girl is mad in love? And I never thought that she could love Anyone like me But my wish came true She loves me too She loves me too

Well we wake up on the verge of day Fresh coffee it's already made The radio is humming in your ears I drink man, don't tell me to be clear About nine the world seemed to wake From these pressing dreams I can't seem to shake I light a smoke in the garden I pace My body screams get out of this place Often there are times where I don't know me at all I'd laugh with all of you now but it's so hard to stand tall We always seem to wonder why and how our great men fall The answer lies in blood red roses The answer lies in blood red roses The rain hit us on our north shield As I think of all the times I should've kneeled As we look back and we share in this soft laugh The waitress comes and hands me a glass We're headed south, way past Toronto And we don't know exactly where we'll go There are so many rooms to sleep in So many girls to know I hope that you make it to my show Often there are times where I don't know me at all I'd laugh with all of you now but it's so hard to stand tall We always seem to wonder why and how our great men fall The answer lies in blood red roses The answer lies in blood red roses The answer lies in blood red roses The answer lies in blood red roses Home Home Home I'm coming home.

Take me where I want to be ‘Cus I can’t stay here Paradise is right for me I’m sick of waiting Everyday I’m closer to The day I leave for Somewhere out there Somewhere new Take me with you It’s alright, I’m alive I’m coming back to see you With those blue and sunny skies Ah-hhh It’s alright, till next time There’s nothing like The sunshine in your eyes I have been there once before And I have learned that I can’t live here anymore I’m losing sight of Everything I used to love This paradise, The only thing I’m thinking of Take me back now It’s alright, I’m alive I’m coming back to see you With your blue and sunny skies Ah-hhh It’s alright, till next time There’s nothing like The sunshine in your eyes It’s alright, I’m alive I’m coming back to see you With your blue and sunny skies Ah-hhh It’s alright, till next time There’s nothing like The sunshine in your eyes There’s nothing like the sun to feel alive

I don't know what it is man Sometimes I just like, get up in the morning You know? Walk down to the fridge Looks outside and realize that maybe I should just start my day with some beers, you know? Call over some girls. Put on some music. Drink a few more beers, man. Call the boss, nah, nah I'm not going to work today. I'm getting drunk." Well I am a wanderer and I have walked seven plains I've never seen a window engraved with your stains Now babe, my girl I'm trying to play this slow And now everybody knows the afroman's lost his mojo I sit here as the days go by I'm sippin' on whiskey and I'm getting high Reflect on your past and live for today And if you ask man, well no I don't care what they say Now there'll come a time where the waters run thin And the fields are burning from the gold in your skin One day you'll see when the plants begin to grow That you can have ice but there ain't always snow I sit here as the days go by I'm sippin' on whiskey and I'm getting high Reflect on your past and live for today And if you ask man, well no I don't care what they say Ooooo-ou-ou Ou-ou,ou-ou Ooooo-ou-ou Ou-ou,ou-ou I have withered and aged Now the clouds they draw so thin Shades of purple and yellow Tell me where does the palette begin? I sit here as the days go by I'm sippin' on whiskey and I'm getting high Reflect on your past and live for today And if you ask man, well no I don't care what they.. I sit here as the days go by I'm sippin' on whiskey and I'm getting high Reflect on your past and live for today And if you ask man, well no I don't care what they say

about

“This new album is a wonderful mosaic of sounds that I would like to put on the same shelf with: The Beatles, Neil Young, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Old Crow Medicine Show, Bob Dylan, The Crash Test Dummies and more. You will hear beautifully arranged guitars, Hammond organ, harmonica, solid bass lines, flowing funky beats, world sounds such as steel drums, layered together with socially conscious vocals ranging from the lennonesque sensitive to the baritone masculine. What more could you ask for; than a bunch of young musicians staying true to themselves, their listeners and the arts with uncommon honesty? After one listen it is obvious how hard Tribe Royal worked on this project and how much they enjoyed themselves while crafting it. This breakout album is an example of musical integrity on an organic level, a nice break from the over-produced/auto-tuned works we hear so much on the radio today. Congrats to Tribe Royal on this beautiful timeless snapshot in time that people will be able to enjoy for the ages.” Vasili Brousalis
