BONE OF MY BONE words and music: bill mallonee Let’s, see I guess it’s been...almost 2 years, my friend since she left my side to cross over...from my arms that River a thousand miles wide Baby, you were the jewel in that Carolina school but rendering was my humble trade had a little schooling...maybe I could have gone further but...there were wars to be made chorus: now all that’s carved in stone and all that’s writ in ink all you though that you could bank on well, it’s not what ya’ think started fallin’ off the radar started fallin’ off the map between the heartache and the stars I couldn’t catch between the heartache and the stars I couldn’t catch the fragrance you would wear that lingered in your hair your eyes were stars...and all that I could see we’d dance the world to bed with Glenn Miller in our heads honey, you always got the best of me I clean off those dust vents in this period of adjustment and I still do your “honey-do” list but the light in this room on those late afternoons ...just bring and ache...and loneliness

Plowshares Into Swords words & music bill mallonee BMI 2008 1. Now the drums? They are pounding and the sabres they're a rattling flags are running up the poles lotta prayers gettin' prayed Brass sections getting' their say A lotta noise to be made when they beat plowshares into swords. when they beat plowshares into swords. 2. They're splitin' into to factions and their knee-jerk reactions all these generals sittin' 'round gettin' bored how does a single drop of blood turn into a flood? I guess black magic happens when they beat plowshares into swords When they beat plowshares into swords when they beat plowshares into swords. 3. You can't estimate the costs. You can't get back what got lost There ain't no point in really keeping score nothing new up on the table since Cain took out Abel repercussions? they just happen when they beat plowshares into swords when they beat plowshares into swords. Bridge: Now babe, the sky is blue and i 'd love to dream a dream with you forever & a day it's you I would adore but, it seems like there's always one man whose got some kind of other plan they keep you in step and march you off to war 4. Now, we're all waiting for the shoe to drop they're all smiling for the photo-ops| but the boxes on the runway tell the score drums keep on a-pounding grace? it keeps drowning lotta of shit just happens when they beat plowshares into swords when they beat plowshares into swords. 5. and the tears fall like rain; there's no medicine of such pain darkness laughs and wins again when they beat plowshares into swords.
