Thanks for all the responses, especially LuvTim for helping me out with the lyrics I wasn't sure about.

I think the site would need a new section to host albums track by track so I'll post the lyrics on this thread. You can copy and paste them from here as well as anywhere.

Incidentally, I already have the lyrics for Cass County. I copied and pasted them from the internet where they are readily available on many lyric sites.

Timothy B Schmit:

All Those Faces, Good bye My Love, It's Alright & My Hat:


All Those Faces

Jeddrah Schmit (all vocal harmonies)

I've seen many towns and cities
been around the block
I meet people, all those faces
but someday I'll stop

nothing I want to but I see now
all things do change
father time he marches onward
nothing stays the same

I have seen a magic carpet
I have taken flight
I just hang on to the edges
and sail through the night

it's so easy with a tail wind
but it's not always so
comes a storm then crash landing
that's the way it goes

I'm glad I'm not alone
dealing with these mysteries
it's a constant ebb and flow
a struggle to be free

kick your boots off take a leap of faith
let's be on our way, don't forget to wave
I'm in training, living out my life
it is quite a ride, I like you by my side
please stay

Have you ever seen a baby
look into your eyes
there is nothing quite like it
so young, so wise
In the distance there's a meadow
so green and fine
it takes a while to finally get there
but it's worth the time

see that rising moon longing to touch the sky
in this endless rendezvous you can almost hear a sigh

kick your boots off take a leap of faith
let's be on our way, don't forget to wave
I'm in training, living out my life
it is quite a ride, I like you by my side
please stay

Lay it all out on the table, I'll stand my ground
lift me up to higher places and I wont look down
We are all in this together but we forget
in this world with all those faces
so much regret
it's time to plant a seed
no use in turning back
was a simple basic need
we all need to know that

kick your boots off take a leap of faith
let's be on our way, don't forget to wave
I'm in training, living out my life
it is quite a ride, I like you by my side
please stay



I Refuse

Taylor Hawkins (drums) Benmont Tench (keyboards)

I like the smell of the summer rain
smashing on the dry ground
it's like the earth's letting off a little steam
staying in the here and now
it reminds me to be present tense
in any given situation
I've got to try to always do my best
such a quaint affirmation
It seems so simple
just follow the good path
sometimes we trip, we stumble
it's just a wake up call to stay on track

deep in the night when the shadows hide
and the crickets are singing
I feel the pull of the great divide
between hatred and healing
and I can't be sure how it will be
come the next time we meet up
if I practiced my philosophy
maybe I'll call your bluff
I draw a line
and I'm not looking to save you
your shit is not mine
I need to stand my ground and keep my cool

sooner or later
you're gonna find out
put it to bed I'm gonna have to say no

Can't lose if you're willing to stand tall
you're life is all you own
I refuse to be part of your downfall
you'll have to go it alone

I can see that fire there in your eyes
you seem to use it like a weapon
and I wonder if it's worth the pain you hide
just to make a strong impression
and I don't know what makes you so mad
or why you think you've got to play rough
and you're trying to make me feel bad
but it's a habit you should give up
I'm doing alright
today's a good day
though nothing's air tight
I am willing to face you come what may

I'm feeling good so don't try to bug me
but if you do I'm gonna have to say no

Can't lose if you're willing to stand tall
you're life is all you own
I refuse to be part of your downfall
you'll have to go it alone

(Guitar inst)

sooner or later
you're gonna find out
but until then I'm gonna have to say no

Can't lose if you're willing to stand tall
you're life is all you own
I refuse to be part of your downfall
you'll have to go it alone

Can't lose if you're willing to stand tall
you're life is all you own
I refuse to be part of your downfall
you'll have to go it alone

(keyboard & guitar inst)



It's Alright

(TBS solo)

When you sleep so close to me I know it's alright
trouble feels so far away I know it's alright
when your fingers brush my face I know it's alright
I'm the canvas that you paint I know it's alright

Outside the rain is pouring down I know it's alright
cause your breath is my only sound I know it's alright

I know I'm the lucky one
I know that you care
all I have to do is turn
and see you lying there

You're a mystery, you're a saint I know it's alright
You're my fortune, you're my fame I know it's alright

I know I'm the lucky one
I know that you care
all I have to do is turn
and see you lying there

Every time I touch your hair I know it's alright
When your sweetness fills the air I know it's alright
I know it's alright, I know it's alright



My Hat

When you stood up and told me that I had to get my hat
it was time for me to reach out for the door
I didn't know then what I know now and it is just a fact
my behaviour was just this side of poor

Well I can't really tell you what was going through my mind
but I try my best never to be rude
If my heart is not open then I start to fall behind
and you'll see one of my off colour moods

Don't know when it might end
maybe I should make my amends

So I buckle up tight
and try to stay on this rollercoaster ride
I go up, I go down
and I keep spinning around

Well I wake up each morning, I get ready for my day
and I'm all set to conquer all my fears
but I tend to let all these little things get in my way
it's been happening a lot these past few years
sometimes I think too much then nothing happens way too fast
I might stare out the window but not see
I need to capture the moment cause I know it may not last
it's a matter of letting things just be

sometimes I'm on fire
too much pent up desire

So I buckle up tight
and try to stay on this rollercoaster ride
I go up, I go down
and I keep spinning around

It's so much later than I'd like and there's so far to go
tonight is such an endless night
but I can't sleep now it seems I'm on a roll

(acoustic slide inst)

I have moments of greatness when I feel I'm on a quest
there are times when I dangle by a thread
In the sweetness of glory I feel raging tenderness
I prefer it to when I hang my head

such a puzzle to me
seems I've misplaced my key

So I buckle up tight
and try to stay on this rollercoaster ride
I go up, I go down
and I keep spinning around
