| Album | The Best Of The Rykodisc Years |
| Mom and Dad, | |
| Living in Michigan with Uncle Ray | |
| He and Aunt Terry said I should write | |
| Said I should write | |
| I should phone you | |
| Just don’t have that much to say | |
| See I’ve been bartending about three nights a week | |
| A stand-up place and they’re good to me | |
| Still I stay bored, most all the time | |
| ‘Cept for the cards that Ray and I play | |
| He's the only friend ive got in this place | |
| Still it's better than Wichita | |
| Aunt Terry, shes fine | |
| She wants you to know she wrote a song | |
| She's picking up where she left off | |
| She's picking it back | |
| And its been years since shes tried | |
| God has it really been that long? | |
| Mom I'm sorry I was wrong | |
| Dad I'm sorry I just couldn’t stay in that town | |
| Where everyone knows everything about me | |
| Michigan, she’s alright | |
| Still I haven’t found a love | |
| Just want to be happy | |
| Love, your son | |
| Just try to be happy | |
| Love, your son |
