This is the version Bok, Muir, & Trickett recorded on their 1983 album, All Shall Be Well Again

MY IMAGES COME
(Don Cooper)

My images come
From the people that do the work
...that sing the song
...that live the life
and...what get along
And a bottle of rum
From the demon that always lurk
From the demon that do me wrong
from the fury that is my wife
And the struggle what is my song
C - CG C / FG C F G / CG C ://

O, It get me down sometime
It get me down but only
A little look around & I find
That I am not so lonely
We in the same boat brother
We in the same boat brother
C GC C FC / C G C G / C GC C GC

My images come
From the pleasure I had before
...I am to know
...my dreams provide
& ...I can bestow
And a bottle of rum
From the trouble that's at my door
From the trouble where'er I go
From the misfortune I abide
And the courage I am tryin' to show

My images come
From the woman that's on my knee
...that's in my head
...out in the sun,
& ...what shares my bed
And a bottle of rum
From a broken heart's misery
From a love that has grown so dead
...spent so foolishly
And illusions that I've been fed

And my images come
From the world in which I live
...I love so well
...of change & light
& the Lord of which I tell
And a bottle of rum
From the feelings I cannot give
From the feelings my fears impel
From the screams of a fraught-filled night
And the time what is spent in hell
