Lyrics
WHOLESOME
I'LL BUY A NEW RING
MUMMY DON'T YOU CRY
I'LL LOAD THE CORN
FETCH DADDY AT THE BAR
YOU'RE NOT ALONE
I'LL BRING THE COWS HOME
I'LL DRY THE SHEETS
ON THE WINDOW PANE
I'LL LET YOUR TEARS
WASH OUT IN THE DRAIN
WASHING MACHINE
WASH AWAY THE DIRT
WASHING MACHINE
MAKE IT ALL CLEAN NOW
CHORUS
WHOLESOME
BREAKFAST WITH JANE
HAND ME THE BREAD
I MISS THE JAM
MY MOTHER MADE
I MISS THE SWEET
LATE LULLABIES
I MISS THE SWEET
HONEY ON MY FINGER
Bridge
I FIND SOME PEACE
WHEN I WALK ALL ALONE
IN THE COUNTRY SIDE
LOVE IS BY MY SIDE
I SEE A LIFE
THAT IS WILLING TO SHARE
IN A FLAP OF WINGS
BRING LIFE BACK
TO THE WHOLESOME
IN BED WITH JANE
I THINK OF MOLLY
PRAY FOR MARIE
I LUST FOR NICKI
I LUST FOR LIFE
I GASP FOR ...TIME
