Now I know
I've seen that look
On your face before
When you realised
All the memories
Walked right out the door...
Now it's eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
No more hiding behind the truth
I'm gonna get exactly
What's coming to me
You're gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
You're gonna break my heart again
But, you're gonna live to regret it
Now you say
I took advantage of you
When you never knew the score
But, you should know
We've been this way
One thousand times before
You told me once,
You told me twice
It's down to me, girl
To pay the price
But, this time's the last time
That's for sure...
You're gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
You're gonna break my heart again
But, you're gonna live to regret it
Yes you are
You talk of how our love
Was meant to be
And all the time
You sacrificed for me...
So how could I forget it,
Why should I regret it
'Cos when you told me you loved me
I knew it was lies
So no more crying, no more goodbyes,
'Cos this time's the last time
That's for sure...break my heart...
Now you say
There is no one in the world
Can get the better of you
An' you should know
'Cos you never made it easy
With the pain you put me thru
I told you once
I told you twice
It's down to you, girl
To pay the price
'Cos this time's the last time
That's for sure...
You're gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
You're gonna break my heart again
But, you're gonna live to regret it
I just can't take anymore,
No more, no more, no more...
(Coverdale/Vandenberg)
The womans name was trouble,
She put the blame on me
I asked her what her game was,
She said "Misery"
I didn't ask no questions,
I did not even pray
When the angel on my shoulder
Said I should walk away
You promised me heaven,
But, you gave me hell,
Cut me down to the bone
With your kiss and tell
Nobody listens to a word I say,
Still I'm gonna curse you, woman,
'Til my dying day
I should have known better
With a girl like you
You shame the devil
With the things you do
I was blind, now I see
A lying woman be the death of me
I got woman trouble blues,
Woman trouble blues
You told me it was meant to be,
But, all you did was put the hurt on me
You made my life a living hell,
And drowned my dreams in the wishing well
I've got woman trouble blues,
Woman trouble blues
There ain't no doubt I'm going down
The womans name was trouble,
She put the blame on me,
I gave her what she wanted
And I got misery
Now I don't take much persuading,
At times I'm easily led,
I'm gonna find myself in a prison cell
Thro' the lying things she said
I'll stand accused on judgement day,
And pray the lord hears what I say
All my life I never learned,
I played with fire and I got burned
Woman trouble blues,
I got woman trouble blues
Woman trouble blues,
Mean ol' woman trouble blues
(Pagowoy/Weiss)
Where did you go
When things went wrong, baby,
And who did you run to,
To find a shoulder
To lay your head upon.
Baby, wasn't I there,
Didn't I take good care of you.
Oh no, I can't believe you leaving me...
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby...
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on...
Who did you touch
When you need tenderness.
I gave so much
And in return I found happiness.
Baby, what did I do
Maybe I was too good, too good for you.
No, no, I can't believe you leaving me.
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby.
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on.
Remember,
You said you're always gonna need me,
Remember,
You said you'd never, ever leave me,
Remember, remember, I'm asking you, begging you.
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby...
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on, can't go on...
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, stay with me, baby.
Won't you stay with me, baby,
I can't go on...
Hey girl, if you want me,
Come an' get me
Don't hang around
Or we could spend the night sleeping alone
If you could change your style, for a while,
An' look in my direction,
Tell me do I look the kind of guy
Who takes advantage of a women like you
Would I lie to you, would I lie to you
I would do anything that you want me too,
But, would I lie to you
Would I lie to you, would I lie to you
Baby, I would do anything that you want me too,
But, would I lie to, would I lie to, would I lie to you
Hey girl, if you need
Some love an' affection,
I'll whisper all the sweet, sweet nothings
I know you little girls like to hear
If you would change your mind
We could find a night of satin sheet action,
I promise I won't do anything
Baby, unless you wanted me to
Would I lie to you, would I lie to you
I would do anything that you want me too,
But, would I lie to you
Would I lie to you, would I lie to you
I would do anything that you want me too,
But, would I lie to, would I lie to, should I lie to you
I don't wanna sleep alone tonight,
After all you put me through.
I've spent the whole night searching
For a woman just like you.
Look in my eyes ... tell you lies
Then, baby, it's just because I want you to stay
Would I lie to you, would I lie to you
I would do anything that you want me too,
But, would I lie to you.
Would I lie to you, would I lie to you
Baby, I would do anything that you want me too,
But, would I lie to, would I lie to, would I lie to you...
I've been mistreated, I've been abused.
I've been struck downhearted, baby, I've been confused
'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me I've been losing my mind, you know I have.
I've been lonely, I've been cold.
I've been looking for a woman to have and hold
'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me I've been losing, I've been losing,
I've been losing my mind, baby baby babe.
I've been mistreated, I've been abused.
I've been looking for a woman, yeh, I've been confused
'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated, ooh o-o-oh.
Since my baby left me I've been losing, losing,
I've been losing my mind, baby baby babe.
Oh oh oh, oh woman, oh woman, oh woman.
I've been losing my mind.
When ice cold winds of winter
Chill me to the bone,
An' thoughts of summer breezes
Turn my heart to stone
That's when I need a hand to guide me,
When it's more than I can bear
A shoulder I can cry on,
Someone to lead me there
An' give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
Slowly I awaken
To the Weavers plan for me,
To drift upon the waters
Of my own uncertainty,
To look for a companion
Who will share my destiny,
A guiding hand to understand
An' walk to road with me
An' give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
I wanna be the master of my destiny,
I never wanna crawl an' beg for no sympathy,
When everything I have is yours,
An' all I ask of you
Is give me love.
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
I never wanna be the first
To show I'm down,
But, I'm never gonna wear the frozen smile of a clown
When everything I have is yours
And all I ask of you
Is give me love
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
Give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love.
Till the day I die
Give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love.
Till the day I die
Till the day I die...
Y'know the joint was jumping
Like a dancing fool,
I saw you standing in the corner
Looking oh, so cool
I had a word with the DJ
To make the music hot,
I'm gonna get you on the dance floor
If you are ready or not
Slow poke music,
I'll get you down to the bone
Slow poke music,
I'll never leave you alone, I'll never leave you
When you move it to the left,
Or you shake it to the right,
No matter what you do, babe,
It's like dynamite
With your sweet French perfume
An' that criminal walk,
You know you'd melt my ice cream
With your body talk
Slow poke music,
I'll get you down to the bone
Slow poke music,
I'll never leave you alone, I'll never leave you
I'm gonna shake you down,
Girl, I'm won't do you no harm
Well, you move so fine,
Like stepping on glass,
An' when you give me that smile,
I see lightning flash
East an' West, North an' South,
Oh babe, you're so hot
I'm gonna melt in your mouth
Slow poke music,
I'll get you down to the bone
Slow poke music,
Get into it, babe,
Slow poke music,
I'll nail it down to the bone
Slow poke music,
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Girl, I'll never leave you alone...
(Coverdale/Vandenberg)
Sometime after midnight
The heat begins to rise,
Girl, you'd shame the Devil
With that look that's in your eyes
I know what's on your mind
An' I can't run away,
If I don't give you what you want
There's going to be some hell to pay
Creeping up behind me
Knocking at my door,
I'll never be too blind to see
Just what you're looking for
You roll me over, make me moan,
Oh, such a velvet touch
You'd melt a heart of stone
Anytime, anyplace,
I'm just the fool who puts a smile on your face
A slave to love an' keep you young
All it takes an' no mistakes
Is just a slip of the tongue
Just a slip of the tongue
An' if I want a little love
I gotta take a lot of pain,
Make me think a thousand times
Before I kiss again
I'm waiting on you every day an' every night
If I don't try to satisfy
There's gonna be a fist fight
Anytime, anyplace,
I'm just the fool who puts a smile on your face
A slave to love an' keep you young
All it takes an' no mistakes
Is just a slip of the tongue
Just a slip of the tongue
The sun is slowly rising
An' I'm sinking to my knees,
I'm dying just to close my eyes
I'm begging, darlin', please
I hear you calling
An' I'm crawling 'cross the floor
I give you everything I've got
An' still you ask for more
Anytime, anyplace,
I'm just the fool who puts a smile on your face
A slave to love an' keep you young
All it takes an' no mistakes
Is just a slip of the tongue
A slip of the tongue,
Just a slip of the tongue,
Slip of the tongue,
Just a slip of the tongue,
Slip of the tongue,
A Slip of the tongue...
(Coverdale)
You talk too much,
Never saying what's on your mind,
It's written on your face,
An' in the words you hide behind
I know what you want,
I can see what you're looking for,
I know what you want from me,
An' I'm gonna give you more
I'm gonna slide it in
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it, in baby...
Sometimes you seem
Just like a stranger to me,
But, all the games you play
Make it so easy to see
You're looking for love,
Tho' you try to deny,
The things you put me through
Tell me what I've got to do to you
I'm gonna slide it in,
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in...
You talk too much,
Always treating me so unkind,
I know what I've got to do,
To get me some peace of mind
I'm gonna slide it in,
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it in,
Right to the top
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in, slide it,
Slide it in, slide it in,
Right to the top, baby...
(Coverdale/Moody)
I take what I want
An' I steal anything that I need,
I would do anything
To get my satisfaction guaranteed
'Cos I'm looking for love,
The time has come
I'm looking for love,
An' I mean to get me some
I'm looking for love right now,
An' I'm rough an' ready
All of you woman better
Lift up your skirts an' run,
'Cos I aim to shoot my pistol
An' fire like a Gatlin gun
'Cos I'm looking for love,
Believe me when I say
I'm looking for love,
In the worst kind of way
I'm looking for love right now
An' I'm rough an' ready
Rough an' ready... Rough an' ready...
I take what I want
An' I steal anything that I need,
I would do anything
To get my satisfaction guaranteed
'Cos I'm looking for love,
The time has come
I'm looking for love,
An' I mean to get me some
I'm looking for love right now,
An' I'm rough an' ready
Rough an' ready...
(Coverdale/Moody)
I'm goin' looking for a woman
With the night in her eyes,
Someone to take all the small talk
And laugh at the lies
A high heeled double trouble backstage queen,
Who gets what she wants
And knows where she's been
Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the promise of a one night stand
So I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight
You can see in my face
Just what I'm hoping to find,
I want a twelve bar beauty
With a one track mind
I don't drive babe, but, I can steer,
We got the green light let's get out of here
Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the promise of a one night stand
So I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight,
I said I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight
When I saw you across the floor,
I could feel I wanted more
I get lonely in the night,
I would do anything, anything you say,
Do anything to take the pain away
So those lonely nights will be alright,
Don't worry honey, we can put out the light
I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight,
I said I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight
So I'm looking for a woman who got no shame,
'Cos in the morning there'll be no one to blame.
A high heeled double trouble backstage queen,
Who gets what she wants and knows where she's been.
Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the promise of a one night stand
So I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight,
I said I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight
Rock 'n' roll women, rock 'n' roll women,
Rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away
Rock 'n' roll women, I said rock 'n' roll women,
I said rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away
Rock 'n' roll women...
Talkin' 'bout rock 'n' roll women, rock 'n' roll women,
Rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away
Rock 'n' roll women, rock 'n' roll women,
I said rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away...
(Coverdale/Vandenberg)
Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time.
There are times in my life,
I don't know witch way to turn,
When everything I touch
I get my fingers burned...
Dreams to ashes, ashes to dust,
When all that glitters
Is dull with rust...
Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time...
I'm torn and tattered,
Shattered and worn,
I've had enough
Trying to live my life
In the eye of the storm...
Every heartache
Leaves a scar on my face,
Somebody reach out
Or throw me a line,
Get me out of this place...
Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
My precious time...
Oh, so tired.
Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time...
Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
All of my precious time...
Restless heart, restless mind,
So I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
All of my precious time, time, time
Restless heart...
Only my soul, stops me crying,
Wondering why I feel alone
And only my love keeps me from
Weeping, so bad,
Giving me strength, to carry on
Lead me on thro' restless waters,
Walk with me along the way
Live the moment, and tomorrow
For the Lord will take it all
On judgement day
Broken dreams lay all around me,
Sad eyed children of despair
Whispered voices in the distance
Call me on to who knows where
Lead me on thro' restless waters,
Walk with me along the way
Live the moment, and tomorrow
'Cos the Lord will take it all on judgement day,
And the Lord will take it all on judgement day
Hear me crying out for love
Hear me crying out for love
I'll never let you know it,
I can only show it in my song
Only my soul
Hear me crying out for love
Hear me crying out for love
I'll never let you know it,
I can only show it in my song
Only my soul...
(Coverdale/Vandenberg)
Instrumental.
I need a woman to treat me good
And give me everything a good woman should
Everyday and every night
She'd be waiting on her brown-eyed boy
To come and treat her right
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you
In my time I've been a back door man,
I've taken everything I could
But, I've given all I can
I don't want no woman
To weep or moan,
I'm looking for a sweet heartbreaker
And I'm never gonna leave her alone
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
What you gonna do?
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
What you gonna do?
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you
'Cos I'm a love hunter baby,
I'm a love hunter baby...
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you
I'm sneaking up on you!
I don't need a doctor, I don't need a priest,
I don't need no superstitious cures for my release.
I'm flesh an' blood, skin an' bone.
A little petticoat company can't get me stoned.
So just gimme the night,
Skin it back to the bone,
Turn on the spotlight.
C'mon, bring on the dancing girls,
Bring on the dancing girls,
Bring on the dancing girls.
You can dance, dance,
Dance for me,
Dance for your daddy all night.
I got a one track notion on a feminine squeeze,
A sackfull of love an' a mindful of fantasies.
A midnight rider on a stallion steam,
I got an old man's weakness hanging on a young man's dream.
So just gimme the night,
Skin it back to the bone,
Turn on the spotlight.
C'mon, bring on the dancing girls,
Bring on the dancing girls,
Bring on the dancing girls.
You can dance, dance,
Dance for me,
Dance for your daddy all night.
(Solo)
So just gimme the night,
Skin it back to the bone,
Turn on the spotlight.
C'mon, bring on the dancing girls,
Help me through the day,
Help me through the night.
Baby your sweet loving
Will make everything all right.
Help me through tomorrow
When stormy weather comes.
Lord make me realize
That you're my woman.
I can see so much pain
Deep inside your eyes.
I know the feeling,
Someone hurts you
When someone makes you cry.
Help me through the day,
Help me through the night.
Babe you make me realize
You're my woman.
(Solo)
Help me through the day,
Help me through the night.
Baby your sweet loving
Will make everything all right.
Help me through tomorrow
When stormy weather comes.
Lord make me realize
You're my woman,
You're my woman.
Help me through the day
And be my woman,
Help me through the night
I've been a gypsy
For a thousand years.
A victim of circumstance.
I go wherever my destiny calls.
I'm caught in a game of chance.
I stand on the outside
Looking at love.
I wanna get inside.
I stand on the outside
Looking at love.
Just trying to get inside.
No fame or fortune,
No luck of the draw.
When I dance with Queen of Hearts.
A jack of all trades.
But, a loser in love.
It's tearing my soul apart.
Still I stand on the outside
Looking at love.
I wanna get inside.
I stand on the outside
Looking in.
I stand on the outside
Looking at love.
Just trying to get inside.
I stand on the outside
Looking in.
(Solo)
The jack of diamonds
An' the ace of spades
Try to use me, and to abuse me.
It seems the dealer
Wont give me a chance.
I'm victim of circumstance.
So I stand on the outside
Looking at love
I wanna get inside.
I stand on the outside
Looking in.
So I stand on the outside
Looking at love
Just trying to get inside.
I stand on the outside
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out.
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out.
She was a day tripper,
One way ticket, yeah.
It took me so long to find out, and I found out.
Day tripper, day tripper, day tripper.
She's a big teaser,
She took me half the way there.
She's a big teaser,
She took me half the way there.
She was a day tripper,
One way ticket, yeah.
It took me so long to find out, and I found out.
(Solo)
Day tripper,
Sunday driver, yeah.
It took me so long to find out, and I found out.
Day tripper, day tripper, day tripper.
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out.
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out.
She was a day tripper,
Sunday driver, yeah.
It took me so long to find out, baby, and I found out.
As I stand at the crossroad,
I see the sun sinking low...
With my cross of indecision,
I can't tell which way to go...
Now I have seen the seven wonders
And I have sailed the seven seas,
I've walked and talked with angels,
And danced all night with gypsy queens...
All in all it's been a rocky road,
Twists and turns along the way...
But, I still pray for tomorrow,
All my hopes, my dreams
Don't fade away... Don't fade away...
I have painted many portraits,
Memories of love and pain,
Though cut down by life's deceptions
I found the strength to start again...
All in all it's been a rocky road,
Twists and turns along the way...
But, I still pray for tomorrow,
All my hopes, my dreams
Don't fade away... Don't fade away.
Heaven help a man
Trying to make up his mind,
With the darkness closing in,
I feel I'm running out of time...
Shine a light for me,
Help me find the way to go,
And take me where I've never been before...
And so I stand at the crossroad,
Watching the sun sinking low...
With my cross of indecision,
Trying to find the way to go...
All in all it's been a rocky road,
Twists and turns along the way,
But, I still pray for tomorrow
All my hopes, my dreams
I'm gonna take it to the limit of my love,
Before I turn and walk away.
I've had enough of holding on
The promises of yesterday.
Every day of my life, it seems,
Trouble's knocking at my door,
It's hard to try and satisfy
When you don't know what you're fighting for.
Time and again I sing your song,
But, I've been runnin' on empty far too long.
I've had enough holdin' on to the past,
Make no mistake, it could be your last.
Don't break my heart again, like you did before.
Don't break my heart again, I couldn't take anymore.
I never hide the feeling inside,
And though I'm standing my back to the wall,
I know that even in a summer love
A little bit of rain must fall.
But, every road I take I know
Where it's gonna lead me to,
Because I've travelled every highway
And they all keep coming back to you.
Time and again I sing your song,
But, I've been runnin' on empty far too long.
I've had enough holdin' on to the past,
Make no mistake, it could be your last.
Don't break my heart again, like you did before.
Don't break my heart again, I couldn't take anymore.
Don't break my heart.
(Solo)
Don't break my heart again, like you did before.
(Coverdale/Vandenberg)
I smell trouble
And where there's smoke
There must be fire...
You sow your seeds of jealousy
And the flames
Just keep on growing higher...
This can't be love anymore,
I know, 'cause I've done
Everything I can...
And all that you can do
I pour gasoline
On a burning man...
Tears of rage, tears of pain,
Burning my eyes,
I realise, I'm crying...
Crying... I'm crying
Bitter tears falling like rain...
Lies...
I can never understand,
You play your cards under the table,
Dealing me a losing hand... Tears of rage, tears of pain,
Burning my eyes,
I realise, I'm crying
Crying... I'm crying
Bitter tears falling like rain...
Crying, always crying, crying
Bitter tears falling like rain...
I want to be there
When your demons come to call...
I'm gonna finish what you started, baby,
Watch you burn little house down,
Burn it down, down, down...
Then I'll see you crying,
Crying... Crying...
Bitter tears falling like rain...
Are you woman enough
To take a man like me,
Baby, I know what you got
You make it easy to see.
Now I wanna give you my loving
Believe me, babe, it's true,
Maybe more than you bargained for,
But, now it's up to you.
So if you want it, come an' get it,
I got something for you.
If you want it, come an' get it,
I'll leave it up to you.
Are you a women who takes
Anything you want,
Or the kind who says that you do
Then tell me later you don't.
Now I wanna give you my loving
I knew the moment we met,
You gotta take me as you find me, baby,
'Cos what you see is what you get.
So if you want it, come an' get it,
I got something for you.
If you want it, come an' get it,
I'll leave it up to you,
It's right to you baby.
(Solo)
Are you woman enough
To take a man like me,
Baby, you know what I got
I make it easy to see.
So if you want it, come an' get it,
I got something for you.
If you want it, come an' get it,
You never call me, babe,
Until your man is gone,
I know it's you
When I pick up the
telephone.
You ask me how I am
And if I'm doing well,
When all you want from
Is just to ring your bell.
Take your time, we can
do some lines,
'Cos it's alright.
We can feel fine drinking
midnight wine,
'Cos it's alright.
Black and blue, black
and blue,
I said come over here,
baby,
And love me till I'm
black and blue.
You got the key to love
Dressed in your innocent

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.
Baby, since you been around.
Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, child
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.
Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.
Now that you're gone
Y'know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall
To the county line, that's why
Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.

Head on down the
highway
Across the county line,
I've had my fill of small
town thrills
Gonna leave it all behind.
Free flight, free flight.
I'm careless in my loving,
Shameless in my style,
If I get caught by the
short 'n curlies
I'll just hide out for
awhile.
Free flight, free flight.
On an' on the road goes
It'll go on forever,
An' just the same I'll live
my life,
Hell bent for leather.
Free flight, free flight.
Heaven knows it's
driving me crazy,
It's a feeling inside.
Heaven knows it's in my
blood
As long as I try, I just
can't deny.
Free flight, come
tomorrow dawn you'll
find me gone.
Free flight, make no

Suitcase in your hand,
When you get down with
your feet on the ground
I know you'll understand.
Free flight, free flight.
Heaven knows it's

It's a feeling that's driving
me wild.
Heaven knows it's in my

Stealing 'round your

A case of hit 'n run.
Sinner, sinner,
I'm no angel you can see.
So I will tell you now
And I won't say it again,
Don't mess with me
Oh baby, don't mess
with me.
Ride like a demon,
The devil's only son.
A whiskey drinking son
of a bitch,
I've only just begun.
Sinner, sinner,
I'm no angel you can see.
I told you once before
And I won't say it again,
Don't mess with me,
Don't mess with me.

Soothe me baby like I

Treat me baby like I

Soothe me baby like I

Treat me baby like I...
Fly like an eagle
An outlaw of the sun,
Never take what sleeps
around
But, always get your fun.
Sinner, sinner,
You're no angel I can
see.
I told you once before
And I won't say it again,
Don't mess with me,
Don't mess with me.

And sinners ain't the

When you're waltzing down the High Street
Singing that sweet French perfume song
Looking out for the boys who couldn't sing along.
Moving like a dancer on the ballroom floor,
Sweet ballerina get me begging for more
When you're rolling your eyes behind your Dior shades.
Bloody Mary, the queen of the ball,
Bloody Mary, you want it all.
I've been looking for you, looking for me.
I like sugar in my woman more than saccharine,
Too much sweet talk make a nice boy mean.
All in all, Mary, you're no good for me.
Just like a bee-sting, babe, you're a pain in my heart
Hurting me more and more.
You get me down on my knees when you talk dirty to me.
Bloody Mary, the queen of the ball,
Bloody Mary, you want it all.
I've been looking for you.
Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary,
Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary.
You know that Madame Palm and her five sweet daughters
Couldn't give a man what the doctor ordered.
Ooh, Mary, I love the way you turn it on.

The night is gone, the time has come to find a new day has begun
An' it promises to stay
To soothe the pain of wasted years and kiss away the bitter tears
A love to light the way
And from the darkness comes a smile that reaches out for many miles
Touching everyone
No more shadows of the past, your spirit free to fly at last
Shining in the sun
Like rolling thunder, I feel the power of love
IT's a gift from heaven and the Lord above
We walk toward desire, hand in hand through fields of fire
With only love to light the way on the road to judgment day
Take it easy, take it slow
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go, places never seen before
'Cause I love you, and I need you
I'll do my best to please you, my love can open any door
When you hear the thunder in your darkest night
I'll be there to hold you when the lightning strikes
So don't you worry, you can ease your mind
'Cause we'll still be dancing at the end of time
Who loves you? Who needs you? Who'll do his best to please you?
I love you. I need you. I'll get down on my knees
We walk toward desire, hand in hand, through fields of fire
With only love to light the way on the road to judgment day
I want you
I need your rhyme,
But, you keep saying, babe,
It's gonna take time.
I know the heartache
I put you through,
Believe me, babe,
I'm gonna make it up to you.
You are the reason
I'm down on my knees,
I'm begging you to give me a chance
If only you would
Give me just a little more time,
Give me just a little more time,
Give me just a little more time,
Give me just a little more time,
To prove it to you.
So many feelings
I can't explain,
I never thought I'd ever cause you any pain
Now I'm alone here
An' I can't hide,
The sun don't shine for me
Without you by my side.
You are the reason
I'm down on my knees,
I'm begging you to give me a chance

Right by my side.
'Cos you're the only one who keeps me satisfied.
I need your loving,
I need your charms,
I can't stand the through of you
In someone else's arms.

I'm down on my knees,
I'm begging you to give me a chance
If only you would

All Or Nothing
Tonight's the night
To come in out of the cold,
I've waited such a long, long time
I'm getting out of control.
All or nothing
That's what I want from you,
I'm gonna give you everything I got
Now what are you gonna do.
Don't try running away,
You know you get nothing that way.
'Cos it's too late,
I'm gonna prove it to you.
Too late,
I'll do what you want me to do.
Too late,
You can't run anymore
Cos' it's too late for you now.
My heart is burning
An' the fire is hot,
My temperature is rising, rising, rising
I'm ready to rock.

I've made up my mind, for sure, this time
You're gonna spend the night with me.

If you feel the rolling

An' your eyes see
lightning strike,
Don't be afraid, just call

I'll bring you shelter
from the night.
When the wind is
howling
I'll hold you near,
An' soothe your
troubled mind
With a little bit of this,
An' a little bit of that
I'll make you leave all
your worries behind.
Don't try to hold on to
what you got,
'Cos I got what you

Don't try to hold on, for
anyone,
Come on, give it to me.
Youngblood, you're hot

Youngblood, you're hot

Youngblood.
When you're burning
hot with fever
An' you shake down to
your bones,
Don't get yourself into a
cold sweat
'Cos it's just your bad
blood throwing stones.
The devil has got your
number
An' he wants you
hanging on a line,
But, before the night is
over, baby
I'm gonna make you
mine.
Don't try to hold on to
what you got,

I'm down on love
An' I don't give a damn,
I take my chances
Whenever I can
Like a lamb to the slaughter,
Another sacrifice,
For giving love to woman
With a heart stone cold as ice
I'm down on love
An' I'm clean out of pain,
I ain't no stranger
To the crying game
Too scared to suffer,
An' too blind to see,
But, I played with fire
An' I got what was coming to me
Now, one more heartache
Don't bother me,
Just one more lonely night
To drown in misery
I am a victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love
Victim of love, victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love
I'm down on love
An' I feel like a fool
To beg for mercy
'Cos I broke the rules
So do me no favours
With your cool advice,
I know the losing cost,
An' I'll pay the price One more heartache
Don't bother me
One more lonely night
To drown in misery
I am a victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love
Victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love
One more heartache
Don't bother me
One more lonely night
To drown in misery
Victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love...

Get ready for Judgement day
An' the final curtain call,
Don't lie when you testify
'Cos the Good Lord know you're all
Saints an' sinners, priests an' thieves,
Saints an' sinners, priests an' thieves
When Moses stood on the Red Sea shore
Laying the Law on the line,
He said don't come knocking
On the Pearly Gates
If all you did was have a real good time
Saints an' sinners, priests an' thieves,
Saints an' sinners, priests an' thieves
For what we are about to receive
May the Lord make us truly thankful.
Saints an' sinners
I stand guilty of a thousand crimes,
An' I suffer temptation still,
Show me a man who won't give it to his woman
An' I'll show you somebody who will
Saints an' sinners, priests an' thieves,
Saints an' sinners, priests an' thieves For what we are about to receive
May the Lord make us truly thankful
Saints an' sinners,

Now I smoke a lot of cigarettes,
And I've been drinking too much wine
You've been patient and understanding,
I guess I went to far this time
I cut you with my drunken words,
So much sharper than a knife,
But, you turned the tables on me, baby,
Just by walking out of my life
Too late to say I'm sorry,
It won't happen anymore
But, you don't believe a word I say
'Cause you've heard it all before
But, all the same,
Won't you take me back again
Don't say it's over,
After all that we've been through
Take some time to think about it, baby,
While I sing my song to you
Your suitcase by the back door,
Packed with broken dreams,
When night time comes to call on me,
I'll know what loneliness means
But, all the same,
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All I'm asking is forgiveness,
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
All I'm asking is forgiveness,
Won't you take me back again
But, baby, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
But, baby, all the same
Won't you take me back again
Take me back again, take me back again
Won't you take me back again
No, no, no, no, take me back again
Don't walk away from me baby
I beggin' you please, uh
I beggin' you please, uh
Take me back again
Take me back again
Every time I see my
baby home,
I wanna kiss a little
better so I get stoned.
Gonna spread her pretty
legs so I can see,
Sweet lip honey be the
death of me
And I will discover
you'll be my midnight
lover,
Oh babe, bring it on
home to me.
Sometimes when I'm
feeling low,
I go looking for a lover
where the bad girls go.
Sorry little girl, If you
can't stay,
Your red light mama
gonna show the way.
And then a certain
madness,
Will 'crease my heart
with sadness
Oh babe, bring it on
home to me.
Take me with you I will
give you anything a
woman needs,
Take me with you I will
give you anything a
woman needs.
I know love and what it
means,
It's a skinny little girl in
tight ass jeans.
I love to hear'em moan
and cry,
'Cos God made men to
satisfy.
And with the fire
returning,
I feel the fever burning
Oh babe, bring it on
home to me.
Take me with you I will
give you anything a
woman needs,
Take me with you I will
give you anything a
woman needs.
Oh, take me with you.

Every time I see my
baby home,
I wanna kiss a little
better so I get stoned.
Gonna spread her pretty

Oh babe, bring it on

Take me with you I will
give you anything a
woman needs,
Take me with you I will
give you anything a
woman needs.
I wanna be loved,
Don't wanna be teased.
I don't want no woman
Getting down on her knees.
I'm ready an' willing
To reach for the sun,
So I can get me some loving
Before I'm gone.
I want more, more, more, more,
I want some more
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.
I want you to rock me
All night long.
Rope an' ride me, baby,
Do me wrong.
Roll me over, make be bleed,
I'd dance with the devil
To get what I need.
I need more, more, more, more,
I need some more of that
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.
I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I'm talking about sweet satisfaction,
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
Sweet satisfaction, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing.
I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I keep on looking for
Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking...
Who knows where the cold wind blows
I asked my friends and nobody knows...
Who am I to believe in love
Oh, love ain't no stranger
I looked around what did I see,
Broken hearted people staring at me...
All searching 'cause they still believe
Oh, love ain't no stranger...
I was alone and I needed love,
So much I sacrificed all I was dreaming of...
I heard no warning, but a heart can tell,
I felt the emptiness of love I know so well...
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love...
Can't hold the passion of a soul in need,
I'll look for mercy
when my heart begins to bleed...
I know good Iovin', I'm a friend of pain,
But, when I read between the lines, it's all the same...
Love ain't no stranger, I ain't no stranger...
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love...
Who knows where the cold wind blows,
I asked my friends and nobody knows...
Who am I to believe in love,
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger...
Love ain't no stranger,
I ain't no stranger to love...
A black cat moans
When he's burning with the fever
A stray dog howls
When he's lonely in the night
A woman goes crazy
With the though of retribution
But, a man starts weeping
When he's sick and tired of life
I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow
Feel I'm wasting my time
Lighting candles in the wind
Always taking my chances
On the promise of the future
But, a heart full of sorrow
Paints a lonely tapestry
The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart
No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
When you're crying in the rain
Crying in the rain
I can never deny
All the sweet things I have tasted
Tho' I've been mistreated
I keep coming back for more
I know where I'm going
There's no hope of absolution
I can't seem to separate
The good times from the bad
The sun is shining
But, it's raining in my heart
No one understands the heartache
No one feels the pain
Cos no one ever sees the tears
When you're crying in the rain
I ain't an educated man
As all you Fleet Street
preachers know,
It's just the simple things
in life
Get my motor running,
ready to go.
If I can make you smile
I will raise my glass,
An' if you don't like it
Then, baby, you can
kiss my ass!
You can tell me it's
wrong,
But, I love wine, women
an' song.
Give me a good time
woman,
An' a love potion bottle
of booze.
'Cos I got a juke box
heart
Full of honky tonk
rhythm an' blues.
You better lock up your
daughter, your sister
too,
If get in my way, I'm
gonna rock an' roll over
you,
Ain't nothing you can
You can tell it's wrong,
But I love wine, women
an' song.
Wine, women an' song,
talking 'bout
Wine, women an' song,
Wine, women an' song,
Wine, women an' song.
You get what you can
But, don't take too long.
Wine, women an' song,
Give me a rock an' roll
band
With a mean an' dirty
blues guitar,
Take me to a dance hall
palace
With a twenty four hour
bar.
Then you better lock up
your daughter, your
sister too,
If you get in my way,
I'm gonna rock an' roll
over you,
Ain't nothing you can
You can tell me it's
wrong,
But I love wine, women

Wine, women an' song,
talking 'bout
Wine, women an' song,
Wine, women an' song,
Wine, women an' song.
You get what you can
But, don't take too long,
Wine, women an' song.

You get what you can

I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it you
can never understand.
So many times I thought
about it
And now I know just
what it means to be a
man.
Everyday I realize you
can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I
choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the
shadow of the blues.
All of my life I've had a
strange reputation,
I've been the black
sheep of the family all
along.
I never know if in my
heart I'm really guilty
But, I've been accused
of never knowing right
from wrong.
Everyday I realize you
can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I
choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the
shadow of the blues.
My father said you're
crazy,
He said what you gonna
I left with my guitar and
said
I'll leave it up to you.
I'm gonna live the life I
love
And live the life I
choose,
And I'm walking in the
shadow of the blues.
(Solo)
Everyday of my life.
I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it I will
tell you once again.
All of my life I've been
caught up in a crossfire,
'Cos I've been branded
with the devil mark of
cain.
Everyday I realize you
can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I
choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the
When i look back
with everything i've done
i know you must of cried a river of tears
But you were there
when i was feeling low
to walk me through my darkest fears
So when the sun goes down
and those nights grow colder
i will be there
looking over your shoulder
And the deeper the love
the stronger the emotion
and the stronger the love
the deeper the devotion
There were times
i almost let you go
when i thought i needed to break free
But you were there
to whisper in my ear
why don't you share your dreams with me
So when the sun goes down
and those nights are growing colder
i will be there
looking over your shoulder

“Still Of The Night”
(David Coverdale & John Sykes)
In the Still of the Night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the Still of the Night

And taste your love so sweet

And hide my face from the sun
Through the light of the day
Until the evening time

In the cool moonlight,

Sometime after midnight, the heat begins to rise
Girl you'd shame the devil with the look that's in your eyes
I know what's on your mind and I can't run away
If I don't give you what you want there's gonna be some hell to pay
Creeping up behind me, knocking at my door
I'd never be too blind to see just what you're looking for
You roll me over, make me moan
Ooh, such a velvet touch, you'd melt a heart of stone
(chorus:)
Anytime, anyplace, I'm just the fool who puts a smile on your face
A slave to love and keep you young
All it takes and no mistakes is just a slip of the tongue
And if I want a little love I gotta take a little pain
Make me think a thousand times before I kiss again
I'm waiting on your, every day and every night
If I don't try to satisfy there's gonna be a fist fight
(chorus)
The sun is slowly rising and I'm sinking to my knees
I'm dying just to close my eyes, I'm begging, darlin' please
I hear you calling and I'm crawling cross the floor
I give you everything I got and still you ask for more
I'm gonna tell you
What is all about,
Why I scream an' I
shout for you.
I've been an' travelled
All around the world,
Teasin' lottsa pretty girls
like you.
Oh, I feel my heart

Banging like a big bass
drum.

I'm coming from,
I'm looking for some.

Rock an' roll angels.
Rock an' roll, rock an'

Rock an' roll angels.
I can't hide what I feel
inside
Tho' I've tried an' I've
tried
I can't fake it.
I get in trouble
everywhere I go,
'Cos I can't say no,
I gotta shake it.
Oh, I feel my heart

Banging like a big bass

She was the keeper of
all my reason,
Possessor of all I
owned,
She kept me on the
edge of darkness
With words as cold as
stone.
Then you came along,
Your eyes were flashing
with desire,
Oh babe, you got me
burning, so much
You got my soul on fire.
Honey, you move me,
You got me so I can't
sleep at night,
You tell me you believe
in me,
And you say you're
gonna treat me right.
You gave me the
answer,
I knew right from the
start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy
roller,
They say that love's a
gamble,
But, I got the Queen of
Hearts.
If I could touch the
crystal silence
That we have after
making love,
Just to tell you I need
you here
In the glow of the stars
above.
If you ever leave, or
deceive,
Or fool around,
You could be right,
You could be wrong,
But, woman, I know I'll
miss you
When you're gone.
Honey, you move me,
Like the wind thro' a
willow tree.
Ain't no doubt about it,
baby,
You make the blindman
see.
You gave me the
answer,
I knew right from the
start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy
Roller,
They say that love's a
gamble,
But, I got the Queen of
Hearts.
You drive me crazy
when you walk,
Crazy when you talk,
Crazy when you walk
with me.

answer,
I knew right from the
start.

When I left my home
I was not much more
than a child,
My mother started crying
She knew that I was
born to be wild.
'Cos I was looking for
the bright lights of the big
city,
A red hot town where
the girls are pretty.
I took to the highway,
Chasing my dream down
the line.
Heading out for trouble,
Never finding my peace
of mind.
'Cos I been run out of
town so many times
before
An' usually kind of
places where I can't go
back no more.
Outlaw born outside of
the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.
I never find it easy trying
to keep the feeling alive,
I've always been a
dreamer,
Dreamers find it hard to
survive.
When they're living in the
bright lights of the big
city,
A red hot town where
the girls are pretty.
Outlaw born outside of
the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.

Outlaw, outlaw,

I've been thinking about the good times
Gathering souvenirs
Of the days when we were one
Before the love was gone...
Those uncomfortable compromises
Always ending in bitter tears
Taking the love away
Leaving nothing more to say...
But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave it all behind me
One of these days...
A string of broken promises
An eternity of pain
Making enemies of desire
Suffocating all the fire...
But, still I miss your sweet breath
Your kisses on my face
& tho' the love is gone
The memory lingers on...
But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave it all behind me
One of these days
But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave the past behind me
One of these days
You know love has always been
The Queen of Mystery
Broken hearts & bitter tears
Will be the death of me...
One of these days...
But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave it all behind me
One of these days...
But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave the past behind me
I got more than I asked for,
There ain't nothin' I need.
I took all till I had more,
I'm always takin' the lead.
Old man shakin' dice down on the street,
Tryin' to make a livin' somehow.
But, I'm really sure about gettin' things sorted out
And I'm gettin' ready right now.
You can't hold me,
I have told you.
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life.
I've been called by many names
And all of them are bad.
I can take it all the same,
It's all I've ever had.
I've got something that you can't get
But, one thing you can see.
Gettin' there ain't easy
But, it sure was hard for me.
You can't hold me,
I have told you.
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life.
Every time I take a look
There's someone close behind.
They never used to make a pass,
The things that crossed their minds.
Now they tell me that it's all right
And they want to be my friend.
They're ridin' on my back.
So when is it goin' to end.
You can't hold me,
I have told you.
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life,
Might just take your life.

And you might not like

So don't you knock on
my door
If you don't want an

Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a
dancer.
I've got my love gun
loaded,
I've got you in my sight,
I never take no for an
answer,
So you'd better say yes
tonight.
I told you the score
Right from the start,
You'll never get to
heaven
If you break my heart.
So if you don't mean
business
Knock on someone
else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean
business
Staying alive if you fool
with me.
You say you want my
money,
I say you've got no
sense,
If you just want to bleed
me dry
Stay on your side of the
fence.
No mercy you can see
'Cos seven to eleven
made a fool out of me.

Something in your smile was so inviting
Something in your eyes told me to stay

This must be love

Love will set you free

If you want love,
You gotta be cool
And if you deny it,
Then baby you're a fool.
I'm telling you now,
Don't you hide it away.
Because you need to keep you warm both night and day.
I could come home
Late at night
And after some loving,
Baby, it would be alright.
I've given up trying
Lying my way.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.
I said baby, if you need my love
You better come home with me.
Maybe if you want my love,
You know you got it easily.
But, when the sun goes down
And the night is cold,
You know I won't be far away.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.
You gotta have love.

You better come home with me.

I need a woman to treat
me good
And give me everything a
good woman should.
Everyday and every night
She'd be waiting on her
brown-eyed boy
To come and treat her
right.
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,

Sneaking up on you.

And use my tail on you.
In my time I've been a

I've taken everything I

But, I've given all I can.
I don't want no woman
To weep or moan,
I'm looking for a sweet
heartbreaker
And I'm never gonna
leave her alone.

For my money
If I work my finger down to the bone
That ain't funny
Now if I see
Something I can't buy
I put a dollar down

That I ever had.
So it's alright,

Your eyes turn on the
hypnotising game
You play for fun.
I'm caught in your spell
Just like the spider an'
the fly,
An' I can't break away
from you
No matter how I try.
But, it's alright,

I'm tired of waiting
An' closing my eyes
I'm asking myself
Why is it all my horizons
Are so far away
I look in the mirror
Don't like what I see
In my reflection
A stranger is staring at me
Looking for love
The love of a woman
The needs of a man
And I try so hard to believe
But I don't understand
The search goes on
But over the mountains
Across the sea
I know love is waiting
I hear it calling to me
Calling my name
I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart, yeah
Alone again, it's always the same
Well, I've just been marking my time
Since the day I was born
With no one to blame
The candle is burning
It's way down low
I just need someone
To show me the way
The way to go, which way to go
I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love

Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
I've been burning my bridges
For too many years,
Drowning the sorrow
Of too many tears
Women and whiskey
Are my only friends,
One gives me strength,
One just pretends
I've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right,
But, those lonely days turn into lonely nights
Yes, It do
I've heard all the wisdom
Of prophets and seers,
It don't soothe my passion
And it don't ease my fears
Burned by love
And blinded by snow,
Bad luck and trouble
Are with me wherever I go
I've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right,
But those lonely days turn into lonely nights
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Lonely days, lonely nights
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights,
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright for me, for me
Lonely days, lonely nights,
I don't care if my lady's gone
as long as you give me just what I want
I've been losin' my direction,
got to find a new connection
You have wasted the love I tasted,
now I'm really gettin' hungry more and more
Been a long time, had a bad sign
Tell me what am I fighting for?
Let me know you feel it,
you know I really need it
Keep on pushin' for more,
lay down, stay down
I got something to find,
there's one thing I really need
I'm gonna tell you right now,
lay down, stay down
Lookin' for trouble, I guess that's right
When I was young I was taught to fight
It's been long gone since I had known,
now I'm headin' for some more
Let me know you feel it,
you know I really need it
Keep on pushin' for more,
Lay down, stay down
I got something to find,
there's one thing I really need
I'm gonna tell you right now,
lay down, stay down
Let me know you feel it,
you know I really need it
Keep on pushin' for more,
lay down, stay down
I got something to find,
there's one thing I really need
I'm gonna tell you right now,
She was a juke-box dancer
A blue eyed gypsy queen
She always had an answer
For what she'd done
And where she'd been
A feathercane Lady Midnight
For all around to see
She spoke with words of wisdom
And this is what she said to me
Lady luck
C'mon give me what I want
Pull me up
Lady luck
If I see you again
I will call you my friend
I have always been a sinner
But then the lady came along
She stole my heart and turned me 'round
'Till I didn't know right from wrong
She whispered words of kindness
I'd never ever heard before
Golden words and silver tongue
Till I really couldn't take no more
Lady luck
C'mon give me what I want
Pull me up
Lady luck
If I see you again
I will call you my friend
Get outta my way
I'm gettin' tired of you
There ain't no chance
Doin' what you wanna do
I've been down, down, down, down, down
Got to get my feet back on the ground
Lady double dealer
Get outta my way
Lady double dealer
You got nothing to say
I ain't satisfied
Dealin' with second hand goods
You wanted somethin' for nothin'
Taking everything you could
You been 'round - I got the news
But you ain't waitin' 'round for me to lose
Lady double dealer
Get outta my way
Lady double dealer
You got nothing to say
I gave love to you
Did what you wanted me to
But all you did was bring me down
So I just had to try
Try to reason why
You took advantage of my love
Two timin' woman
Tryin' to take me for a ride
You're a hard lover honey
But you sure don't keep me satisfied
I wanna be there
To try to make you see
You've got a thing about us cocaine eyes
You've got the heat baby dizzying lies
With roses in her hair and a
Devil may care attitude
She never said she would stay by my side
She only wanted to be there for the side
A bottle of wine and a couple of lines
And she was there for the night
Trying to change her ways
I'm glad I gave he a golden hare
Oh no this ain't no place for me
Angle of mercy, Angel of greed you never stop till you what you need
Dances like she know me and
Cuts like a matter of talk
I said baby won't you slow down for me
You've got to move if you want to be free
Like the wind I was blowin' anyway I please
Trying to change her ways
I'm glad I gave he a golden hare
Oh no this ain't no place for me
Lady you're my lady
You're my woman
Got the love I need
You are my woman
Trying to change her ways
I'm glad I gave he a golden hare
Oh no this ain't no place for me
(Break)
Trying to change her ways
I'm glad I gave he a golden hare
Oh no this ain't no place for me
Lady you're my lady
You're my woman
Got the love I need
You are my woman
Lady you're my lady
You're my woman
Got the love I need
Walking down the street
You're the center of my universe.
You got the world in your pocket,
My manhood in your purse.
You ain't a bad girl, honey,
No matter what the neighbours say,
It's just that you were those skin-tight dresses
With your G-string tuned to "A".
Sweet, sweet, child of the street.
Heaven sent, you're an angel dressed in black,
Cool, stiletto strut, you're a drop jaw cardiac.
You're the genuine, feline, prettiest girl I've ever seen,
With your thief of hearts smile
You're a certified pleasure machine.
Sweet, sweet, child of the street.
Dressed to kill in diamonds and fur,
You get what you want
With your pussy cat purr.
But, the kittens got claws,
She'll tear your heart out.
The kittens got claws,
She'll scratch your back.
The kittens got claws
She'll tease an' please you.
The kittens got claws,
She's a heart attack.
You treat me good,
Sometimes you treat me bad,
But, keep it up, honey,
You're the best time I've ever had.
No matter what you put me through I must confess,
Oh, you got more style than a brand new XJS.
Sweet, sweet, child of the street.
Dressed to kill in diamonds and fur,
You get what you want
With your pussy cat purr.
But, the kittens got claws,
She'll tear your heart out.
The kittens got claws,
She'll scratch your back.
The kittens got claws,
She'll tease an' please you.
The kittens got claws,
She's a heart attack.

You scratch my back, baby,
I should have known better than to let you go alone
It's times like these I can't make it on my own
Wasted days and sleepless nights
And I can't wait to see you again
I find I spend my time waiting on your call
How can I tell you babe? Back's against the wall
I Need you by my side to tell me, "It's alright"
'Cause I don't think I can take anymore
Is this love that I'm feeling?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love or am I dreaming?
This must be love 'cause it's really got a hold on me
A hold on me
I can't stop the feeling, I've been this way before
But with you I've found the key to open any door
I can feel my love for you growing stronger day by day
And I can't wait to see you again
So I can hold you in my arms
Is this love that I'm feeling?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love or am I dreaming?
This must be love 'cause it's really got a hold on me
A hold on me
Is this love that I'm feeling?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Hear me Knocking
On Your Door
Can't Help Myself
I keep coming back for more

Burning higher and higher
So Baby, Baby please...

To hold me tight
I need you
To shine a light
Bringing me home again
I keep singing the same old song
Like I did before
When you left me
You left me in darkness
I'd never known before
I was restless
A fool for your time
Waiting 'round for you to call
But now I've found me
An angel of mercy
I don't feel bad at all
Your body was honey
I tasted a lot
But let me tell you babe
I need more than you got
I want someone to hold me
An' keep me satisfied
I need love
I've got nothing to do
Ain't got nothing to say
Just live your life
The way you know
When you moved on
You took all the sweetness
Was I a fool to let you go
With the woman I forget for the moment
All the times we knew before
Tho I'm still singing
The same old love song
Called to Madonna
To give me a line
She said boy what have you done
Passing your time with a holy man
Talking about the moon and sun
But I can't tell the difference
Between the fool and wise
Show me a river to follow
Away from all these lies
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been picking up my bones too long
Won't you understand
Called to the Captain
To put me ashore
For it looked like no man's land
Is this the way to follow
I cried as I shook his hand
He told me had no answer
He didn't really hold the key
I am a simple man
Was all he said to me
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me a hand
I've been out in the cold too long
Won't you understand
I've been on the road so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been out in the cold too long
Won't you understand
Heard my mother crying
She was calling out my name
Whisper in the dark night
Saying who's to blame
The hour glass keeps turning
With not enought sand to see
I am a holy man
So don't you bother me
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been pickin' up my bones too long
Won't you understand
I've been on my own so long
Won't you lend me your hand
I've been out in the cold too long
Everyday I'm more confused
In my life you're all I know
Laid your love before me
I thought it would knock me down
Had me screaming in the morning
Theres a hole in the sky
Don't tell me you're sorry who cares
There's a tear in my eye
Don't tell me you're sorry who cares
Used to be cool but I wait anymore (?)
When you told me it was gone
Always playing love songs alone
Without you near I'll never make it on my own
Theres a hole in the sky
Don't tell me you're sorry who cares
There's a tear in my eye
Don't tell me you're sorry who cares
Now everytime I want to hold you
To give you love that was made for me
Now I can feel it I need you close to me
If you really want me and baby if you really care
You've got to say right by my side
You've got to say right by my side
You're sweeter than the morning
When the sun is shining down on me
There is nothing you can say
That could make me go away you see
But you keep saying to me baby
Hold on - I feel I'm getting ready
Hold on - I feel I'm rockin' steady
Hold on - I'm gonna make it with you woman
Hold on - You got to gimme some love, gimme some love
I held back before
But your love took me easily
You got the power
I knew was gonna creep up on me
The more I give
Your love keeps comin' on strong
Although it's mine now
I know it won't be for long
There's something in the saying
That a woman needs a little more time
I'm getting tired of waiting for you
Giving me some kind of sign
Hold on - I've got to love you when I want to
Hold on - You've got to love me when I want you to
Hold on - I ain't gonna let you leave me baby
Hold on - No never no more
I know the game you're playing
And I guess you think I'm easily led
You think the words you're saying
Are really going through my head
I'm gonna take you home
And give you all I can
I'll prove to you, baby
That really I'm a man
Hold on - I know I'm feeling ready
Hold on - I know I'm rockin' steady
Hold on - Guess I've made it with you woman
Hold on - I've got you giving me love
Something that you give me
Keeps me hangin' on
No use me stayin'
There's nothing to be done
I'm gonna take you home
And give you all I can
I'll prove to you woman
That really I'm a man
Hold on - I only want to take you higher
Hold on - You are the root of my desire
Hold on - C'mon baby light my fire
I've never had a home sweet home life
An' I don't want a nine to five,
So many women I know
Think they can tie me down,
But, I will never let them take me alive.
I hit an' run, hit an' run, hit an' run, hit an' run, hit an' run.
Now some women say they don't want nothing,
But a sweet talkin' bull of a man,
I've heard it before, I can't hear it no more
'Cos they all take whatever they can,
But, still I want a heartbreaker,
A love maker, a soul shaker,
A women who can turn me on,
For a just little hit an' run, hit an' run.
She can be a love stealer,
A double dealer, a free wheeler
As long as she can turn me on
For just a little hit an' run,
A little bit of hit an' run.
You can keep your lock and key
No ball and chain can harness me.
Take me home tonight,
Love and treat me right
But, in the morning you'll find me gone,
I hit an' run.
(Solo)
Well I'm a rock and roll preacher
Not a Sunday school teacher
You ain't no shady lady
But I love the way you strut your stuff
You're a snow queen looking mean
Tryin' to make it on the scene
I guess you love it
'Cause I always see you hanging' around
You're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me
A Magnet brought you to me
Told me your name was Jo
You said you liked my music
And you really did enjoy the show
Now I wanna play piano
But my fingers don't agree
They're busy on you woman
And I feel your fingers workin' on me
You're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me
It's time to leave you honey
I know you're feeling sad
Don't you cry now baby
You know that only makes me mad
I see you everywhere I go
Every town and place
I can't recall your name
But I know I won't forget your sweet face
You're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
You sure ripped the low ones off me
'Cause you're a high ball shooter
You make it easy to see
High ball shooter
I don't know where I'm going, but I sure know where I've been
Hanging on the promises in the songs of yesterday
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
Here I go again, here I go again
Though I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
Here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
I'm just another heart in need of rescue
Waiting on love's sweet charity
And I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again, here I go again
Here I go again, here I go
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
I believe my love for you
Is a love that will last forever
And I'm here to testify
I'm a prisoner of your heart
Baby, don't you believe when I tell you I love you
That I really mean it
Don't you walk away
Don't turn your back on me
I'm guilty of love
It's a crime of passion
Guilty of love
And there's no doubt about it, no doubt about it
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
In the first degree
Guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
In the first degree
I can never forget all the times
When I took what you gave me for granted
So I stand accused
And I plead guilty to the crime
You can lock me away if you want
Just as long as your arms are around me
And I won't mind
If you just throw away the key
I'm guilty of love
It's a crime of passion
Guilty of love
And there's no doubt about it, no doubt about it
Guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
In the first degree
Guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
In the first degree
Guilty of love
Guilty of love
It's a crime of passion
Guilty of love
And there's no doubt about it, no doubt about it
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
In the first degree
Guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
Guilty of love
I'm guilty of love
I'm guilty
In the first degree
I've been looking for shelter for a man
Walking in circles coming back again
Looking out your window waiting for a ride
May not be the sweetest woman
But I love the way you smile
Looks like I've been this way before
Knocking on the same old door
Tell me stranger have you seen
The door my baby tried
Well you can shake it, fake it
Make me felt, so fine
You can always tell a road rat
But you know you got to draw the line
Like satin or lace,
With a painted face
I get my loving
I leave no trace
You can drop a bomb
But it don't come free
If you want you
Can do it for me
Follow me down, follow me down
Down to Goldie's place see you there
(Break)
Sit here crying, looking at the barroom floor
I'm holding my glass like a crystal ball
All the ladies with their velvet eyes,
They look so sweet and fine
One night lovers, always discover
Riding on a one track mind..
So tell me who, who, who has been fooling who?
Baby, baby, give me kindness
Warm me with the morning sun
Help me lose this blindness
To see my life isn't gone...
Honey, if you're lying to me
I just want to know if, if your love is true
Cause one day I'll choke on my whiskey and coke
And I'm sure I'll put the blame on you
Maybe baby you can show me some more,
You seem to feel it good
Let me tell you I wanna hold you baby, yeah
Give me what a good woman should
You tell me who, who, who has been fooling who?
Baby, baby, give me kindness
Warm me with the morning sun
Help me lose this blindness
To see my life isn't gone...
Sing out brother
Sing out sister
Tell it like it is, like it is
Like it is, lay it on the line
Sing out brother
Sing out sister
We can always drink the water
But you know we gonna drink the wine
Sing out brother
Sing out sister
Tell it like it is, like it is
Like it is, lay it on the line
Sing out brother
Sing out sister
We can always drink the water
When I first saw you baby
You took my breath away
I knew your name was Trouble
But, my heart got in the way
I couldn't stop myself from reaching out
I could not turn away
I don't even know your name
An' I can't leave you alone
I'm running round in circles
Like a dog without a bone
I know the game you're playing
But baby I just can't let go
So give me all your love tonite
Give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
Just give me all of your lovin' tonite
I'll work hard everyday
To love and treat you right
I'll rock you in the morning
And roll you in the nite
Any way you want
I'm gonna prove my love for you...
So give me all your love tonite
Give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
Just give me all of your lovin' tonite
I am blinded by your smile
And I'm crazy 'bout your walk
I shiver and I shake
When I hear you baby talk...
I'm a fool for your lovin', babe
Give me all of your lovin' tonite...
So give me all your love tonite
Give me all your love tonite
I'll do anything you want
GIRL
I have never known a woman who loves me like you do.
You treat me like a dog an' make me shake my tail for you.
I know the game you're playing when you're turning all your tricks.
It's written on your face you just want your business fixed.
Now I don't need a crystal ball to see what's in your mind.
If I don't give you what you want you treat me so unkind
but if I'm good and give you love you throw me down a bone
but if I'm bad you make me sad an' leave my love alone.
Pretty little crazy white girl
just a pretty little crazy white girl

girl, girl

When night time comes
And I'm ten thousand miles away
Just lose yourself
And watch the band kick back and play
Get up - keep in line
It's gettin' tighter all the time
You say you're feelin' fine
It's gettin' tighter all the time
Get a load off your mind
This place is right
It's hard to find
The mood is set alright
It's gonna be a long long night
You keep spinnin' 'round
You find it hard to touch the ground
And time is all it takes
You'll find it easy once you make
Get up - keep in line
It's gettin' tighter all the time
Gettin' tighter
Looking back across the years
the good times and the bad
an echo in my mind
Whisper on a breeze
sweet and bitter memories
of all I left behind
If it was'nt for your love
don't know where I'd be
dont know what I'd do
Time and time again
sing the same refrain
all because of you
For you will be my love
and I will feel your heartbeat
forevermore
Rest here in my arms
forevermore
Forevermore
Through the dark night of my soul
you gave me a hand to hold
and help me make it trhough
Now all my darks and my fears
held inside for all those years
dissappear when I'm with you
For you will be my love
and I will feel your heartbeat
forevermore
Rest here in my arms
Give me all your love
give me all your love
and I'll be in your loving arms
forevermore
(solo)
For you will be my love
and I will feel your heartbeat
forevermore
Rest here in my arms
Give me all your love
give me all your love
and I'll be in your loving arms
give me all your love
Give me all your love
give me all your love
and I'll be in your loving arms
give me all your love
Forevermore
forevermore
forevermore
Forevermore
forevermore
forevermore
I was born a rambling man
An' I never got the chance
To settle down an' get a hold on love
Takin' air an' movin' around
Is all I can see that I'm doin'
An' it is bringin' me down
Drivin' on a highway going nowhere
Desolation destination
Guess I'll find it somewhere
I know if there's trouble
I ain't takin' the blame
That's why I keep movin'
So nobody knows my name
Born a loser
I'm beyond the law
Women behind me
Never can find me
They can never get together
What I've been here for
Cos I'm a drifter
Rollin' on
You say your dreams
Are burned to ashes
And your smiles
Have turned to tears
It seems to me
You welcome sadness
As you surrender
To your fears
So what's a man like me
Supposed to do
When all I want is
Just to make love to you
Don't turn away
Before the night is over
Don't turn away
Before the night is gone
Don't turn away
The night may hold the answer
So don't turn away
Before the night
Before the night is gone
You say your heart
Is lost forever
And you're always gonna give
Your love in vain
So you paint yourself
A lonely portrait
And hide your love away again
You turn away from what you feel inside
You can't forget all your foolish pride
Don't turn away
Before the night is over
Don't turn away
Before the night is gone
Don't turn away
The night may hold the answer
So don't turn away
Before the night is gone
So now I'm asking
You this question
Am I gonna give you
All my love in vain
Do you wanna
Drown in your own sorrow
Or are you gonna
Try to love again
Don't turn away from what you feel inside
You should try to forget about
All your foolish pride
Don't turn away
Before the night is over
Don't turn away
Before the night is gone
Don't turn away
The night may hold the answer
So don't turn away
Before the night
Before the night
Before the night is gone

I get up, I head 'round
Biding my time till the sun goes down
The city sweats, with neon heat
I feel the rush when I hit the street
You and me, the night queen
We're like fire and gasoline
So come on girl, this guns for hire
Fully loaded, just for love...
And we howl, like dogs in the street
And we love, like dogs in the street
Dogs in the street
Sugar sweet, so fine
I get mean things on my mind
You're the best, I've ever seen
You make love like a record machine
So come on girl, this guns for hire
Fully loaded, just for love...
And we howl, like dogs in the street
And we love, like dogs in the street
Dogs in the street
(Solo)
And we howl, like dogs in the street
And we love, like dogs in the street
Dogs in the street
Dogs in the street (howlin' in the moonlight)
Dogs in the street (?)
Dogs in the street (?)
Dogs in the street (with fire & gasoline)
If you fool around
With the dealer
Remember soon
You'll have to pay
He'll creep behind you
Like a hunter
Just to steal your soul away
I don't want no one
Messing with my woman
But just the same
I don't see nobody
Fooling with you
If you're snowblind
Madonna can hold you
But if you don't understand
There is nothing she can do for you
Running from the dealer
Trying to save your soul
I can feel the fire
Coming from inside you
I know what it's like
Cos I've been burned before
Ain't no mercy
In the hunger but
You're a fool to yourself
Cos your dealer keeps you begging for more
Running from the dealer
Trying to save your soul
In the beginning all you wanted
Was the calm before the storm
If the bluebird plays the eagle
He finds his song will turn to stone
My mama showed me how to rock in the cradle,
But I learned how to roll along.
My papa said "son, gotta git some fun,
Cos when your old it ain't too good on your own"
Been so long, since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar 'n' play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
So I'm comin' home
To give you more than you bargained for...
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver 'n' shake...
Comin' home
Gonna rock 'n' roll an' give you my soul...
Comin' home
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again...
Groovin to American Bandstand,
B.B. onstage with 'Lucille',
The thrill is gone, but, it won't be for long
Cos you know I like to play how you feel
Now that we're back together
Gonna shiver 'n' shake all night
I just gotta say the music I play
Will sure enough make you feel alright
Tho I learned how to rock in the cradle
An' rollin' came so easy to me
All the years I travelled the world
Made it so clear to see
It's been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar 'n' play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
Comin' home
To give you more than you baragained for
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
Comin' home
Gonna rock 'n' roll and give you my soul
Comin' home
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again
Comin' home
Shiver 'n' shakin' anticpatin'
Comin' home
I don't go looking for trouble,
It's always coming my way,
But, I've been looking for you,
And like the summer sun, you welcome my day.
So come on, come on,
And give your man some rock 'n' roll,
And get yourself some sweet rock 'n' roll.
I'm just a soldier of fortune,
Must be the gypsy in me.
I ain't along when I say
I never needed love so badly before.
Hear me singing "Come on, come on"!
Give your man some rock 'n' roll,
And get yourself some sweet rock 'n' roll.
(Solo)
I keep singing, "Come on, come on"!
"Come on, come on"!
Give your man some rock 'n' roll,
Give your man some rock 'n' roll,
Come on and get some sweet rock,
Come on and get some sweet rock,
Come on and get some sweet rock 'n' roll.
Must be the gypsy in me,
I'm getting ready
I'm in the mood to fool around
It's time for action
Now the boys are back in town
So turn up the music
Make it loud and proud
Let's see reaction
Let the spotlite hit the crowd
Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher
Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the night
You got the fire
I feel your fire in my soul
You got the fever
Cos you were born to rock an' roll
Don't run for cover
I'm gonna show you what I've learned
Just come a little closer
Come on an' get your fingers burn
Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher
Now are you ready to rock
Are you ready to roll
Are you ready to rock
Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the night
I'm getting ready
I'm in the mood to fool around
It's time for action
Cos now the boys are back in town
Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher
Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
I get so confused,
But, my heart knows you're one of a kind.
Leather an' lace, an angels face,
Riding on a one track mind.
You're fully loaded with cruise control,
My four wheels rock with your back seat roll.
You're cheap an' nasty,
All you wanna do is give it up, give it up.
Cheap an' nasty,
Come on an' do the dirty with me.
I get so excited, babe, when I'm invited
To ride in your limousine,
You drive it every day, burn it every night,
I wonder how you keep it so clean.
Smooth accelerator, you get me so loose,
You keep your motor running till I run out of juice.
You're cheap an' nasty,
All you wanna do is give it up, give it up.
Cheap an' nasty,
Come on an' do the dirty with me.
(Solo)
Cheap an' nasty...
I never knew it could be this way
An' I never thought I'd ever complain,
But, gimme a second just to catch my breath
Babe, before you do it again.
All the boys call your name
Down the wishing well,
Baby, when you go
You're like a cat out of hell.
You're cheap an' nasty,
All you wanna do is give it up, give it up.
Cheap an' nasty,
All you wanna do is give it up, give it up.
Cheap an' nasty,
All you wanna do is give it up, give it up.
Cheap an' nasty,
Come on an' do the dirty with me.
Come on an' do the dirty,
Come on an' do the dirty,
Come on an' do the dirty with me.
I was running for the folks I know
Never had it good
But don't know if they're feeling fine
Who had to leave them soon
Recently I seem to have become
A new born man
I want to share with everyone
What happened in my put (?)
Open up the door gonna be down the road
Celebration, celebration, celebration, celebration
Feeling come and go
Never has to leave
After she let you down
Bring you to your knees
When you're feeling good
Nothing you can do
Gonna take you to the mardi gras
Piss out on you (?)
Gonna make you feel alright
Gonna make it through the night
Open up the door gonna be down the road
Celebration, celebration, celebration, celebration
(Break)
If you want to know
The book I won
Never had it good
Come on in and see the crime
I really believe they should
Recently I've seen the light
I've become an new born man
I want to share with everyone
What happened in my past
I've never been one to tease
Only want to please
Open up the door gonna be down the road
Celebration, celebration, celebration, celebration
Celebration I just want to celebrate
Celebration gimme two, give me one
Open up the door gonna be down the road
I take what I want,
And I got my eye on you.
It's late in the evening
What are you gonna do.
I got the place,
If you got the time,
I got the motion, baby,
If you got the mind.
So wise man tell me
What it means to give and take,
It's double trouble,
But, it can ease a little heartache.
So you can carry your load
Down the long, winding road.
Carry your load, down the long, winding road.
All I'm asking, all I wanna do is just
Put a little love in your heart,
Put a little love in your heart.
I know what I want,
And it's close to the bone.
Sooner or later, baby,
I'll be taking you home.
You got the cool,
But, you give me the heat.
You got the music, baby,
But, you give me the beat.
So wise man tell me
What it means to give and take,
It's double trouble,
But, it can ease a little heartache.
So you can carry your load
Down the long, winding road.
Carry your love,
Down the long, winding road.
All I'm asking, all I wanna do is just
Put a little love in your heart.
(Solo)
Wise man tell me
What it means to give and take,
It's double trouble,
But, it can ease a little heartache.
So you can carry your load
Down the long, winding road.
Carry your love
Down the long, winding road.
You got to carry your load
My mama always said
If you want you should get in fast
While the going's good
Lie like a rug if you fool around
Just don't get caught with your trousers down
Somebody stop me,
Tie me down
I tell you, baby,
I can't, I can't stop now
My daddy said son gotta understand,
Don't think twice get it while you can
You can't hang around, you can't stand still,
Cos' if you don't take it another man will
Somebody stop me,
Tie me down
I tell you, baby,
I can't, I can't stop now
I got an eye for a pretty girl,
An' a sweet tooth for trouble
I can't stop, can't stop, can't stop now
I can't stop cause it tastes so good,
I got a sweet tooth
For trouble
No rest for the wicked, no peace of mind
When you got a jukebox heart
Working overtime
I maybe out of touch,
Maybe out of line
But, baby, you got your life
An' I got mine
Somebody stop me,
Tie me down
I tell you, baby,
I can't, I can't stop now
I got an eye for a pretty girl,
An' a sweet tooth for trouble
I can't stop, can't stop, can't stop now
I got an eye for a pretty girl,
The sky is red, I don't understand,
past midnight I still see the land
People are sayin' the woman is damned,
she makes you burn with a wave of her hand.
The city's a blaze, the town's on fire.
The woman's flames are reaching higher.
We were fools, we called her liar.
All I hear is - "Burn!"
I didn't believe she was devil's sperm.
She said, "Curse you all, you'll never learn!
When I leave there's no return."
The people laughed till she said, "Burn!"
Warning came, no one cared.
Earth was shakin', we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared.
Still I hear - "Burn!"
You know we had no time,
we could not even try.
You know we had no time.
You know we had no time,
we could not even try.
You know we had no time.
The sky is red, I don't understand,
past midnight I still see the land.
People are sayin' the woman is damned,
she makes you burn with a wave of her hand.
Warning came, no one cared.
Earth was shakin, we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared.
BREAKDOWN
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown.
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown.
Shot you full of rock'n roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
I never saw the tears but I knew you cried for rhythm'n'blues.
Screaming like a wildcat I knew that I had nothing to lose.
Shot you full of rock'n roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown.
Shaking like a leaf in the wind see me blowing away.
Never see me fall on the ground till I've had my say.
Shot you full of rock'n roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown.
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown.
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown.
Shot you full of rock'n'roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown.
Now when I first met you
I was rolling along,
Just a bar room crooner
Singing heartbreak songs,
An' I supposed I could never get next to you.
But, you seemed quite happy with my company
You kept my body heat steady at 103,
With your mouth full of gimme
An' your body full of much obliged.
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
Bloody luxury
What you do to me.
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
'Cos no matter what you do to me
It's bloody luxury.
Bloody luxury.
You're a five star woman,
An' you know what to give
To fill a part time loser
Full of reasons to live,
But, there's no doubt about it
I'm taking a chance on you.
Becos' you get my heart beating heavy,
Make my knees go weak.
You get me so damn nervous
I can hardly speak,
But, nothing's gonna stop me
Hanging on my good luck charm.
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
Bloody luxury
What you do to me.
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
'Cos no matter what you do to me
It's bloody luxury.
Bloody luxury.
(Solo)
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
Bloody luxury
Honey what you do to me.
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
'Cos no matter what you do to me
It's bloody luxury.
Bloody luxury.
What you mean to me,
Bloody luxury
Honey what you do to me.
It's bloody luxury
What you mean to me,
'Cos no matter what you do to me,
No matter what you do to me,
No matter what you do to me,
It's bloody luxury.
Bloody luxury.
Behind the smile is great and nice,
Beware of what is in his eyes.
Looks like fun but he's after you,
It's not so funny what that smile can do...
Behind the smile there lies a face,
Filled with cunning but is full of grace.
Comes on friendly but is deadly too,
Beware for he'll take care of you...
An innocent soul well it hurts
I'm so nieve, that's all you ever see
Behind the smile you cannot see
Lies another fool in misery
Don't be fooled by that friendly grin
The jaws of death are going to draw you in...
I need your love to get me through
All the things I wanna do
Babe, if you want me to
I'll get on my knees for you..
But, you gotta give me a little sign,
You got the same thing on your mind...
Every day an' every night
Give me the green light...
An' let it roll... let it ride,
I'll be your dog 'til you're satisfied...
I'll be your puppet on a string
Cos' for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything...
Anything you want, Anything you need... Anytime at all...
Is it so hard for you to see,
I just love your company...
An' there ain't nothing I won't do,
Just to prove my love for you...
So let it roll... let it ride,
I'll be your dog 'til you're satisfied...
I'll be your puppet on a string
'Cause for a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything...
Anything you want, Anything you need... Anytime... anytime at all...
So baby, try to understand
I was born to be your man...
Don't keep me knocking at your door,
Just tell me yes or tell me no...
Let it roll... let it ride,
I'll be your dog 'til you're satisfied...
I'll be your puppet on a string
For a spoonful of your sugar
I would do anything...
Anything you want, Anything you need... Anytime... anytime at all...
Some people tell me
The blues ain't bad,
But, I've never know anything
Make me feel so sad...
Running on empty, hurting to the core,
When everything don't mean nothing any more...
From a distance
Every little thing looks fine,
But, the closer you get
You see the make up,
Cracked and lined...
Somewhere there's a rainbow
With a pot of gold,
But, by the time you get there
It's been taken and sold...
So I keep saying, baby...
All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
In my room
There are no shadows in the wall,
'Cause I closed up the window
So no light gets in at all.
It's a bad situation,
With no end in sight,
A heartache deep as the ocean
And darker than the night...
So I keep saying to you, baby,
All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
With no one to lean on
You pray to the Lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...
All in the name of love...
With no one to lean on
You pray to the Lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...
All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
All in the name of love,
It's all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
Rising with the morning
I turn to greet the dawn,
Knowing I must face
another day.
Sleepless night behind
Just a memory of pain,
My heart has always
been a cross to bear.
Lord I know the sun
shine,
But, I feel the tears of
rain
Falling down to wash my
sins away.
I'll try, hard to remember
So I won't be fooled
again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no
more today.
All around me, shadows
fall,
Tho' day has just begun,
I realise I'm on my own
again.
Memories of broken
dreams,
As distant as the sun,
Are drifting like an echo
in the wind.
Lord, I know the
sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of
rain
Falling down to wash my
sins away.
I'll try, hard to remember
So I won't be fooled
again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no
more today.
Babe, I thought about it,
But, it just ain't done
good,
You hold my heart and
soul within your hand.
All the time, you're in my
mind,
I never thought you
could be so blind,
Maybe someday I will
understand.
Lord, I know the sun
shine,
But I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my
sins away.
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled
again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no
more today, no more.
Hey, mama you drive me
crazy,
Knowing you're my
hearts desire,
Why'd you go and hang
me up this way.
You've given me love,
given me love,
Now tell me what you
were thinking of,
Why'd you go and steal
my soul away.
Lord I know the
sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of
rain
Falling down to wash my
sins away.
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled
again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no
more today.
I ain't gonna cry no
more.
(Solo)
Lord I know the
sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of
rain
Falling down to wash my
sins away.
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled
again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no
more today.
Ain't gonna cry no
more1.
Hey, I ain't gonna cry no
I'm going back to the place I was born
With an empty pocket and a suit well-worn
All my life I've been short changed
I ain't never find a women wanna take my name
I want some love
I want it now
I'm gonna take it
Any old how...
I want it all, I want it now, I'm gonna beg, borrow,
steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now, I'm thieving love baby
anyhow
I'm gonna steal your heart away
God only knows I've payed my dues
Spent most of my life livin' hard life blues
All my life, Baby all my days
I've been tryin' find a woman who'll help me change my
ways
I want some love
I want it now
I'm gonna take it
Any old how...
I want it all, I want it now, I'm gonna beg, borrow,
steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now, I'm thieving love baby
anyhow
I'm gonna steal your heart away
(Solo)
Now I found me an angel with a heart of pure gold
A fine lookin' woman gonna sooth my soul
So come on baby, take me outta here
We got a first class ticket to the promised land
I want some love
I want it now
I'm gonna take it
Any old how...
I want it all, I want it now, I'm gonna beg, borrow,
steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now, I'm thieving love baby
anyhow
I'm gonna steal your heart away
I want it all, I want it now
I want it all, I want it now
Now you're gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An' I can't go on
When I think of the love that you've taken
In the night I pray for your embrace,
Every time I close my eyes
I can't escape your face
You're out of sight,
But, always on my mind,
I never realised
My love could be so blind
You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all I need,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it another try
One more time
But, now you're gone
There's an emptiness closing around me,
An' I can't go on
When all I have left is the memory
In the night I call out your name,
I wake up in a cold sweat
An' I'm all alone again
I need your love
Much more than I can say,
I realise without you
I can't face another day
You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
I've been losing my mind
You're all that I want,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it
Another try
One more time,
Baby, just one more time
Now you're gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I can't go on
When all of my love has been taken
You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
I've been losing my mind
You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
The night is gone, the time has come
To find a new day has begun and it promises to stay
To soothe the pain of wasted years
And kiss away the bitter tears, a love to light the way
And from the darkness comes a smile
That reaches out for many miles, touching everyone
No more shadows of the past
Your spirit free to fly at last shining in the sun
Like rolling thunder, I feel the power of love
It's a gift from Heaven and the Lord above
We walk toward desire
Hand and hand through fields of fire
With only love to light the way
On the road to judgement day
Take it easy, take it slow
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go, places never seen before
'Cause I love ya, and I need ya
I'll do my best to please ya, my love can open any door
When you hear the thunder in your darkest night
I'll be there to hold you when the lightning strikes
So, don't you worry, you can ease your mind
'Cause we'll still be dancing at the end of time
Who loves ya, who needs ya, who'll do his best to please ya
I love ya and I need ya, I'll get down on my knees
We walk toward desire
Hand and hand through fields of fire
With only love to light the way
On the road to judgement day
So, don't you worry, baby, on the road to judgement day
Who loves ya, who needs ya on the road to judgement day
So, I love ya and I need ya, my love can open any door
You've got my love to keep you warm
Give you shelter from the storm
Any time you need
Through the long and lonely night
You got me to hold you tight
My love is guaranteed
You're everything I'm waiting for
Now I don't have to look no more
Take me as I'm
I'll do the best I can for your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand when I say
It's easier said than done
Sometimes I swim against the tide
When I know you're by my side
There ain't anything I can't do
Baby my heart's an open book
Anytime you wanna look
Cause it's written just for you
You're everything I'm waiting for
Now I don't have to look no more
Take me as I'm
I'll do the best I can for your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand when I say
It's easier said than done
You're everything I'm waiting for
Now I don't have to look no more
You're everything I want you to be
Baby, baby won't you stay with me
Take me as I'm
I'll do the best I can for your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand when I say
Here I sit a broken hearted man
Lady luck dealt me a losin' hand
So what's a man like me to do?
Still a fool in love with you
I gave you all the love I had to give
And you took away my reason left to live
Feel I'm runnin' high on time
But I just wanna make you mine, make you mine
Take me home tonight, make me feel alright
All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind
I gambled with my heart and payed the price
Threw it all away on the roll of a dice
Tried to play the king of hearts
Now I'm the joker torn apart
Take me home tonight, make me feel alright
All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind
(Solo)
So here I sit a broken hearted man
Lady luck dealt me a losin' hand
So what's a man like me to do?
Still a fool in love with you
In love with you
Take me home tonight, make me feel alright
All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind
All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
(Coverdale/Vandenberg)
I'm far from home,
And tired of this place,
I miss your good, good love
And your sweet embrace
Can't sleep at night
With you on my mind,
I just wanna run to you, baby,
Leave it all behind
'Cause it seems so long
Since I heard your song,
I'm coming home to you, baby,
Back where I belong
Your precious love,
That's all I need,
Angel spread your wings
And bring it on home to me
Sometimes in my life
I don't know what to do,
Tho' I'm weak for myself
I try to be strong for you.
You're there when I need you,
After all these years,
So I send you this letter, baby,
Written in tears
'Cause it seems so long
Since I heard your song,
I'm coming home to you, baby, baby,
Back where I belong
Your precious love,
That's all I need,
Angel spread your wings
And bring it on home to me
'Cause it seems so long
Since I heard your song,
I'm coming home to you, baby,
Back where I belong
Your precious love,
That's all I need,
Angel spread your wings
And bring it, bring it, bring on home
Your precious love, your precious love,
That's all that I need.
Angel spread your wings and
Bring it, bring it, bring on home
Bring it baby, baby, that's all I want.
Your precious love
Your precious love, that's all I need
Your precious love, your precious love
Your precious love, that's all I need
C'mon bring on home, baby
Won't you bring on home
I need your love...
When I saw you in the
Garden
Sweet lilac in your hair,
The sunlight seemed to
surround you
And bless the morning
air.
I wondered what your
name was
And if you would dance
with me,
I heard you cry for
mercy
But, my eyes they could
not see.
'Cos the time is right for
love,
The time is right for love,
You can pray to the
Lord above
But, the time is right for
love.
So much for all your
sweet words,
All that you said you
would do.
Remember all my love
songs,
They were promises to
you.
But, I don't hold it
against you,
I know you're not to
blame
So draw your circle
around me
And we'll put all your
lovers to shame.
'Cos the time is right for
love,
The time is right for love,
You can pray to the
Lord above
But, the time is right for
love.

I want you so bad,
The thought is driving me mad
Like a cat on the prowl,
You come when you want
And not when I call
So sly, so pretty,
I wanna steal all the keys to your city
Tight skirt, skinny leg,
You make a bad dog sit up and beg
You're everything I want,
Everything I need
Come in out of the cold, pretty woman,
Spend the night with me
Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine all mine,
'Til the end of time,
Baby, you're so fine
You're so hot with body heat,
You cause a fire walking down the street
You got class, you got style,
The girls don't like it,
But, the boys go wild
You're everything I want,
Everything I need
Come in out of the cold, pretty woman,
Spend the night with me
Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine
Dance little sister,
Spinning on a dime,
Shake a shimmy little twister
I'm gonna make you,
I'm gonna make you mine,
Mine all mine,
You're so fine
I want you so bad,
Just the thought is driving me mad,
I wanna know what you'll do,
Baby, baby, I can't wait
To get my hands on you
You're everything I want,
Everything I need
Come in out of the cold, pretty woman,
Spend the night with me
Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine
Oh, you're so fine
Oh, I wanna make your mine all mine
You're so fine, you're so fine
You're so fine, you're so fine
You're so fine...
Well it's five in the
morning
When will you be home,
I'm tired of waiting here
baby
All on my own.
All I got for comfort is
some cheap red wine
But, the thought of what
you're doing gives me no
peace of mind.
You 'n' me, it's got to be
just you 'n' me,
Can't you see, baby
Can't you see what
you're doing to me.
I know those page three
girls
In the playboy books,
Ain't got nothing on you
In the way that you look
But, an eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
When you get home
You better give me some
truth.
Tell me no lies
When I ask you the
questions,
Tell the truth
Your lies ain't gonna
make it no more.
Tell me no lies,
Baby you're no
exception to the rule,
Because I've heard it all
before
And babe believe me I
never forget.
You 'n' me, baby baby
Just you 'n' me,
Can't you see, baby
If you don't stop what
you're doing to me
I'm gonna do it to you.

Well the world just keeps on turning
And people keep on learning
It’s crazy to be earning
All the money that you’re burning
But if you fool yourself
An’ think you’re really strong
Someone gonna see you
Show you that you’re wrong..
Cos you can’t take it with you
If you got money to burn
Someone gonna get you
If you’ve got money to burn...
Riding in your roller
Oh, think you’re pretty cool
But the big man’s got your number
And he’s just playing you for a fool
Can’t take it with you
Your money to burn
I’m gonna give you
For your money to burn
Don’t wanna be learn
When I’m going down
When I’m getting .. for it
I ain’t hanging ’round
For ain’t no dollar
Ain’t gonna turn
But I don’t want money,
Ain’t want no money
Money to burn
Money to burn
Money, money...
On an' on, the road goes on,
An' it'll go on forever,
Time will show if you and I
Will walk that road together
Through fire an' water, ice an' snow,
Heaven above us, an' hell below,
Holding on, trying to walk the line
With sweet temptation running close behind
I'm talking 'bout love
Ooh, love
Like a fire forever burning,
A flaming heart that's yearning, more an' more
A love to keep us warm
On the wings of the storm
Everyday an' every night
I keep hoping it'll be all right,
Trying to leave the past behind,
Still looking for some peace of mind
But, destiny brought us together
An' promised us a time that would last forever
Tho' it's all been said before
It's the kind of love worth fighting for
I'm talking about love
Ooh, love
Like a fire forever burning,
A flaming heart that's yearning, more an' more
A love to keep you warm
On the wings of the storm
On an' on, the road goes on,
An' it'll go on forever,
Time will show if you and I
Will walk that road together
I'm talking about love
Ooh, love
Like a fire forever burning,
A flaming heart that's yearning, more an' more
A love to keep us warm
On the wings of the storm
My love will keep you warm
On the wings of the storm...
Sad to say: We have to go
until we meet again along the road
Remember this on your journey home:
When you hear the thunder roar, you're not alone
We wish you well, we wish you well
in times of trouble may your heart be strong
we wish you well, we wish you well
I was raised a gambler's son
And before I could walk,
I had to learn how to run
And I never, never ever
Played a loaded dice
But, I rolled a lot of women
With a heart as cold as ice
On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Always coming my way,
Trouble always coming my way
Baby I'm lonely, I'm out of control,
I need someone to understand
The badness in my soul
Though I never, I never
Stole another man's wife
But, I fooled around plenty enough
And I got what I paid for
On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Trouble always coming my way
Trouble
On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Trouble always coming my way
Trouble always coming my way, trouble always coming...

I used to be the man for you,
Did everything you wanted me to,
So, tell me, baby,
What did I do wrong...
I told you what you wanted to know,
Precious secrets never spoken before.
All I'm asking,
Where did I go wrong...
Some things are better left unsaid,
But, all I do is cry instead,
Now, I've cried me a river,
Thinking how it used to be...
There've been too many tears falling,
And there've been too many hearts
Breaking in two.
Remember what we had together,
Believing it would last forever.
So, tell me, baby,
Where did I go wrong...
Everything I had was yours,
More than I have ever given before,
So, won't you tell me
Did I hurt you so bad...
I guess I'm fooling myself,
'Cause I want you and no one else.
And I can't understand
Why you're doing these things to me...
There've been too many tears falling,
And there've been too many hearts
Breaking in two...
Remember what we had together,
Believing it would last forever.
So, tell me, baby,
Where did I go wrong, where did I go wrong...
Now my heart is breaking,
My whole world is shaking,
'Cause I can't understand
Why you're doing these things to me...
There've been too many tears falling,
And there've been too many hearts
Breaking in two...
Remember what we had together,
Believing it would last forever...
So, tell me, baby,
Where did I go wrong...
I can tell by way you walk,
You give it all away
By the sweet way that you talk, yes you do
You got long legs, a black girl sway,
The way you shake your booty
Gives your schoolgirl game away, yes it does
You're just a sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run
I know you know
You got what it takes,
You got the fever,
But, you give me the shakes, yes you do
Straight out of Lolita
With nothing to lose,
When I got your number
My juke box blew a fuse, yes it did
You're just sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run, you better run,
So you better run, you better run
Or you better hide
Sweet talker, bad daughter,
You've just begun
The bitch is in heat
So you better run, you better run,
You better run, you better run,
Or you better hide
I can tell by way you walk,
You give it all away
By the sweet way that you talk, yes you do
You got long legs, a black girl sway,
The way you shake your booty
Gives your schoolgirl game away, yes it does
You're just a sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
Sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run

You hold all the Aces,
I never get the chance to deal
Flick of the wrist and you cut me down,
I'm spinning like a roulette wheel
You say that love's a gamble
But, you play with loaded dice
You hide behind a good girl smile
With a heart stone cold as ice
But, I want it, I need it
If you don't give it I'll steal it,
I'll take it all and walk away
Lady luck,
You're a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
Who you gonna call when it all falls down on you,
sweet lady luck...
You can't stop your dealing
'Cos it's a crying shame,
When the winner takes it all
And never ever takes the blame
But I want it, I need it
If you don't give it I'll steal it,
I'll take it all and walk away
Lady luck,
You're a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
Who you gonna call when it all falls down on you
Uh, what you gonna do?
Lady luck
I need your love, I need it now,
I've got to have it anyhow,
Sweet lady luck...
I can't win for losing,
It's tearing me apart
So I'll play the joker to your Queen of Broken Hearts
But, I want it, I need it,
If you don't give it I'll steal it
I'll take it all and walk away
Lady luck,
You're a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
Spinning like a roulette wheel, sweet lady luck
You're a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
I need your love, I need it now,
I've got to have it anyhow
Sweet Lady Luck..
Sweet Lady Luck..
Sweet Lady Luck..
Lady Luck!

In the morning when I wake up
Looking forward to the day
When I will take your hand
And sing you songs
And maybe you will say
Come lay with me and love me
And you will take my hand
And lead me to your chamber
Where I will be a man
I will love you from sunrise to sunset
Even when the skies are filled with rain
And when the morning comes and you are sleeping
I will love you when you wake again
And when we lay together
Realizing what it means
Drifting in the deep of sleep
Surrounded by our dreams
Yes we will have our sailing ship, our castles in the sand
And we will walk upon the shore forever hand in hand
I will love you from sunrise to sunset
Even when the skies are filled with rain
And when the morning comes and you are sleeping
I will love you when you wake again
I will love you from sunrise to sunset
Even when the skies are filled with rain
I will love you from sunrise to sunset
Even when the skies are filled with rain
I will love you from sunrise to sunset
Even when the skies are filled with rain
I will love you from sunrise to sunset
Even when the skies are filled with rain ...
I'm running away from a feeling
Hiding my face in the sand
I'm scared to love and lose again
I don't know if I can
I don't need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow
Standing in the shadow of love
I've been living so long in the darkness
I know the cold embrace of the night,
When morning comes I close my eyes
'Cos I'm blinded with the light
Taking a chance of a feeling
Is like waiting for a flower to grow,
So I stand at the crossroad, baby,
Wondering which way to go
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow.
Standing in the shadow of love
I'm running away from a feeling,
Hiding my face in the sand
I'm scared to love and lose again
I don't know if I can
I don't need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love,
Too Many people
Are standing in the shadow,
Standing in the shadow of love...
I never knew what a kiss could mean
Until the first time I kissed you,
You took my love in the palm of your hand
An' showed me what a woman could do
Now I don't want sugar coated loving
Just silver tongue tenderness,
You gotta give me a certain satisfaction
The kind of love you seal with a kiss
An' spit it out, spit it out, spit it out
If you don't like it
Spit it out, spit it out, spit it out
If you don't like it
I can remember, I can recall
When I first set my eyes on you,
I'll never forget the thrill of it all
Dreaming of the things we could do
Baby, you must be crazy,
Fooling with a man like me,
'Cos I roll my dice with a heart of ice
An' make it clear to see
Spit it out, spit it out, spit it out
If you don't like it
Spit it out, spit it out, spit it out
If you don't like it
I never knew what a kiss could mean
'Til the first time I kissed you,
You took my love in the palm of your hand
An' showed me what a woman could do
Your sweet caress an' tenderness
Can take the pain away,
The things that you do make a queen out of you
An' make me a king for a day
If you don't like it, spit it out
Now I know what your love can do
I'll be hanging 'round your door,
An' I'm gonna love you baby,
I'll give you more than you bargained for
Spit it out, spit it out, spit it out
If you don't like it
Spit it out, spit it out, spit it out
If you don't like it
Spit it out, if you don't like it...

I have often told you stories
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be...
A soldier of fortune
Many times I've been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thougt my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Now I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be...
A soldier of fortune
Yes, I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
She got everything I need,
She makes me smile, she makes
me bleed.
'Cos she's a woman.
She got the end, she got the
means,
She's in my heart and in my
dreams
An' it makes me cry. I wanna
make her mine.
She ain't black, but, she got soul,
She ain't young, she ain't old,
She shine like silver, burn like
gold.
'Cos she's a woman, she's a
woman.
She got everything I need,
She got comfort, she got speed.
She's a woman, she's a woman.
She do me bad, she do me good,
She got the Gypsy in her blood.
Cos' she's a woman, she's a

She ain't black, but, she got soul,
She ain't young, she ain't old,
Shine like silver, burn like gold.
She's a woman, she's a woman.
She got a fire in her eyes,
I know she sees through all my
lies,
'Cos she's a woman, she's a
woman.
I know I'm the danger zone
If I leave her all alone.
'Cos she's a woman, she's a
woman.
She ain't black, but, she got soul,
She ain't young, she ain't old,
Shine like silver, burn like gold.
She's a woman, woman,
She's a woman, she's a woman.
(Solo)
She's a woman, woman,
She's a woman.
She got everything I need,
She make me smile, she make me
bleed.
She's a woman, she's a woman.
She got the end, she got the
means,
She, make me shiver in my jeans.
'Cos she's a woman, she's a
woman.
She ain't black, but, she got soul,
She ain't young, she ain't old
She shine like silver, burn like
gold.
'Cos she's a woman, she's a

Do you remember
Standing on the shore,
Head in the clouds,
Your pockets filled with dreams
Bound for glory
On the seven seas of life,
But, the ocean is deeper than it seems
The wind was with you
When you left on the morning tide,
You set your sail for an island in the sun,
On the horizon, dark clouds up ahead,
For the storm has just begun
Take me with you,
Take me far away,
Lead me to the distant shore
Sail your ship across the water,
Spread your wings across the sky
Take the time to see
You're the one who holds the key,
Or sailing ships will pass you by
You cry for mercy,
When you think you've lost your way,
You drift alone, if all your hope is gone
So find the strength and you will see
You control, your destiny,
After all is said and done
So take me with you,
Take me far away,
An' lead me to the distant shore
Sail your ship across the water,
Spread your wings across the sky
Take the time to see
You're the one who holds the key,
Or sailing ships will pass,
Sailing ships will pass you,
Sailing ships will pass you by...
Take me with you,
Take me far away,
We'll ride the wind across the sky
Spread your wings and you will see
You control, your destiny,
So sailing ships don't pass you by
So take me with you,
Take me far away,
We'll ride the wind across the sky
Spread your wings and you will see
You control, your destiny,
So sailing ships don't pass,
So sailing ships don't pass you,
So sailing ships don't pass you by...
Baby, baby, baby, baby,
You'll find that you're the only one
Can sail your ship across the sky
I'm goin' looking for a
woman
With the night in her
eyes,
Someone to take all the
small talk
And laugh at the lies.
A high heeled double
trouble backstage queen,
Who gets what she
wants
And knows where she's
been.
Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the
promise of a one night
stand.
So I'm going looking for
those rock 'n' roll women
tonight.
You can see in my face
Just what I'm hoping to
find,
I want a twelve bar
beauty
With a one track mind.
I don't drive babe, but, I
can steer,
We got the green light
let's get out of here.
Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the
promise of a one night
stand.
So I'm going looking for
those rock 'n' roll women
tonight,
I said I'm going looking
for those rock 'n' roll
women tonight.
When I saw you across
the floor,
I could feel I wanted
more.
I get lonely in the night,
I would do anything,
anything you say,
Do anything to take the
pain away.
So those lonely nights
will be alright,
Don't worry honey, we
can put out the light.
I'm going looking for
those rock 'n' roll women
tonight,
I said I'm going looking
for those rock 'n' roll
women tonight.
So I'm looking for a
woman who got no
shame,
'Cos in the morning
there'll be no one to
blame.

Never wrote a single word I didn’t want to say
So glad I got to know you better today
I never wrote a single word I didn’t want to say
I want to see you tomorrow
If that’s ok, that’s ok
I’ve seen a lot of everything I didn’t want to know
Somebody’s dying all the time
I’ve seen a lot of everything I didn’t want to know
Want to live tomorrow to come and go, you know, come and go
I’m playing your game
And feeling just the same
Oh I’m just your fool around, I’m just your fool around
But I don’t get you down
Am I gonna see you when the lights have all gone down?
Will I hear you calling out my name?
Am I gonna see you when the lights have all gone down?
Wanna hear you say it
I played your game
This ain’t your game...
Gypsy woman told me
I've got to walk the night
Like a fallen angel,
I'm blinded by the light
I need to find a love child,
Who never did no wrong
A superstitious woman
To love me all night long
Let me love you
My heart beats like a hammer,
I'm scared of being alone,
I never thought I'd see the day
I'd curse when I was born
Caught up in a fever, running hot 'n cold,
I need a sweet young woman
To satisfy my soul
Let me love you.
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light,
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the night
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky,
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cry
Let me love you, let me love you
Let me love you, let me love you, let me love you
Gypsy woman told 'em
I've got to walk the night,
Like a fallen angel
I'm blinded by the light
Caught up in a fever running hot 'n' cold,
Need a sweet young woman to satisfy my soul
Let me love you.
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light,

Crying in the night
Nighthawk, nighthawk

You'll hear the nighthawk cry
Let me love you...

Behind the smile is great and nice,
Beware of what is in his eyes.
Looks like fun but he’s after you,
It’s not so funny what that smile can do...
Behind the smile there lies a face,
Filled with cunning but is full of grace.
Comes on friendly but is deadly too,
Beware for he’ll take care of you...
An innocent soul well it hurts
I’m so nieve, that’s all you ever see
Behind the smile you cannot see
Lies another fool in misery
Don’t be fooled by that friendly grin
The jaws of death are going to draw you in...
Call you in...
I've spent close on sixteen years
Watching your pretty flower grow.
Little girl, little girl, now tell me
Everything you know
About the oceans and the skies,
The mountains and the trees,
And then I'm tell you about
The birds and the honey bees.
'Cos I'm a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm a love man.
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can.
I just love to tease,
I would do anything to please you, baby.
Sweet little angel, give me your hand,
Feel for my heartbeat, baby,
Then you'll understand.
About the bees and the honey,
The bluebirds in the trees,
And you'd know, just to get close to you
I would get down on my knees.
I am a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am a love man. That's what I am.
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can.
I could love to squeeze,
I would do anything to please you, baby.
(Solo)
Baby, I am a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am a love man. That's what I am.
I'm a hootchie cootchie man,
Doing all I can.
I just love to tease,
I would get down on my knees.
So come a little closer,
Let me whisper in your ear.
How the good Lord in His Wisdom
Made you so, and put you here.
He played a little game
Called The Apple and the Snake,
When the lady took her first sweet bite
The Snake made no mistake.
He was a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
And I am a love man.
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can,
'Cos a love man needs his loving everyday.
I would do anything I could to be near you,
Walk all night in the pouring rain
To be at your side.
My heart is aching for love,
My body's shaking with desire.
Believe me, baby, when I say
I will drink you dry.
I would do anything to be near you,
You're everything any man could claim.
I see your face in the night,
I hear you calling my name.
But, it's a long long way from home,
I'm just trying to get a message to you,
It's a long long way from home,
An' I don't know what I'm gonna do.
I'd been looking for love for so long when I found you,
Too many years I walked alone.
When I touch you inside I feel you burning me with fire,
Believe me baby when I say
I will feed the flame.
I would do anything to be near you,
Walk all night in the pouring rain.
I see your face in the night,
I hear you calling my name.
But, it's a long long way from home,
I'm just trying to get a message to you,
It's a long long way from home,
An' I don't know what I'm gonna do.

My heart is aching for love,
My body's shaking with desire.

LIE DOWN (A MODERN LOVE SONG)
You got the smile of a Mona Lisa,
know it all an' giving nothing away
you make the sins of a vestal virgin,
look nothing more that a roll in the hay.
So lie down, i think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
You give an air of the Dolce Vita,
society's made a queen out of you.
Casanova couldn't take all your virtue
but rock'n'roll is gonna steal it from you.
So lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Come on, girl, it'll be alright,
easy does it nice and slow.
Woah, you know, m am a, that tonight's the night,
come on and let your feelings show.
Take a look in the mirror,
tell me what you see.
If it ain't sweet surrender
you can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me.
So lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Take a look in the mirror,
tell me what you see.
If it ain't sweet surrender
you can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
lie down, I think I care.
Oh, you told me you were burned by holy water,
And the priest forgot the words
He was trying to say.
It seems your best friend
Is your own reflection,
And no promise of love
Is gonna make you wanna stay.
I don't mind,
You can think it over slow,
And tell me what you find.
I'm marking time,
If you got love to give,
Baby, I don't mind.
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me love.
You got fox eyes,
They burn like a sunrise,
You got a walk that makes a mans' blood turn to wine.
You bought and sold me
For you lover,
As long as you feed me good, baby, I don't mind.
I don't mind,
You can think it over slow,
And tell me what you find.
I'm marking time,
If you got love to give,
Baby, I don't mind.
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me love.
(Solo)
So you told me you were burned by holy water,
And the priest forgot the words
He was trying to say.
It seems your best friend
Is your own reflection,
And no promise of love
Is gonna make you wanna stay.
I don't mind,
You can think it over slow,
And tell me what you find.
I'm marking time,
If you got love to give,
Baby, I don't mind.
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving,
Keep on giving me loving,
I keep hangin' on the promise of love
Your eyes tell me that I'm gonna see.
I feel the hunger like a starving man
Honey, when you stand close to me.
I start to shiver, I start to shake,
Chills up an' down my spine,
I'm in the mood for action
In need of satisfaction,
Babe, I'm gonna make you mine.
Now I believe in you,
An' everything that you do.
'Cos I'm hungry for love,
I'm hungry for love, I'm hungry for love,
I can't get enough, I can't get enough, I can't get enough.
I've got the weakness of an ordinary man
I need the comfort of womanly mind,
But, I get nervous when I think about
So many women an' so little time.
But, I believe in you,
An' everything you do.
'Cos I'm hungry for love,
I'm hungry for love, I'm hungry for love,
I can't get enough, I can't get enough, I can't get enough.
(Solo)
I start to shiver, I start to shake,
Chills up an' down my spine,
I get so nervous when I think about
So many women an' not enough time.
But, I believe in you,
An' everything that you do.
'Cos I'm hungry for love,
I'm hungry for love, I'm hungry for love,
I can't get enough, I can't get enough, I can't get enough.
I'm hungry for love, I'm hungry for love, I'm hungry for love,
I can't get enough, I can't get enough, I can't get enough,
I can't get enough, I can't get enough, I can't get enough.
HOT STUFF
I'm ready for you, are you ready for me?
I've got a burning heart, it won't let me be.
I feel the hunger, my spirit yearns,
I've got to feed the fever of a love that burns.
I walk the streets round midnight looking for a little hot stuff.
I can't get enuff
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
Hot stuff, hot stuff
I'm hard to handle, too hot to hold.
I can't seem to satisfy my heart and soul.
I need a woman to set me free,
a little Miss Understanding to feel the need in me.
I walk the streets round midnight looking for a little hot stuff.
I can't get enuff
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
can't get enuff HOT STUFF
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
can't get enuff
I'm ready for you, are you ready for me?
I've got a burning heart, it won't let me be.
I feel the hunger, my spirit yearns,
I've got to feed the fever of a love that burns.
I walk the streets round midnight looking for a little hot stuff.
Can't get enuff
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
can't get enuff HOT STUFF
can't get enuff HOT STUFF
hot stuff HOT STUFF
hot stuff HOT STUFF
hot stuff HOT STUFF
hot stuff HOT STUFF
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
can't get enuff HOT STUFF
I just can't get enuff HOT STUFF
hot stuff... can't get enuff hot stuff
I was born under a bad sign, left out in the cold
I'm a lonely man who knows just what it means to lose control
But I took all the heartache and turned it to shame
Now I'm movin', movin' on and I ain't taking the blame
(chorus:)
Don't come running to me, I know I've done all I can
A hard loving woman like you just makes a hard loving man
So I can say it to you, babe: I'll be a fool for your loving no more
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying
A fool for your loving no more, I'll be a fool for your loving no more
I'm tired of hiding my feelings, you left me lonely too long
I gave my heart and you tore it apart
Oh, baby you done me wrong
When I heard the sound
of thunder
On the day that I was
born,
I was blinded by the
lighting
An' baptised in the
storm.
My father started crying
When he saw what he
had done,
But, my mother started
praying
Have mercy on my son,
He is a child of
Babylon.
I am a child of Babylon,
Lord have mercy on a
wayward son.
Nowhere to hide,
nowhere to run.
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
When I've fooled
around so many times
When I've known it ain't
been right,
But, I paint it all in
colours
When it really should be
black and white.
I sail my ship through
muddy waters,
Try to open every door,
When I saw the seven
wonders
It left me wanting more.
I am a child of Babylon,
Lord have mercy on a
wayward son.
Nowhere to hide, got
no place to run.
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
On my day of
judgement
I know how it will be,
I'm prepared to meet
my maker
With no hope for
charity.
I'll stand alone and pay
the price
For everything I've
done,
'Cos there ain't guardian
angel
For a child of Babylon.
(Solo)
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
I am a child of Babylon,
Lord have mercy on a
wayward son.
Nowhere to hide, got
no place to run.
I am a child,
A child of Babylon.
I've been feeling sentimental
In a melancholy way,
Blues sitting on my shoulder,
Getting heavier everyday...
Staring into space
One thing on my mind,
I've been trying to drown
The thought of you
By drinking too much wine...
Then my imagination
Starts running wild,
I snap my fingers
And you're there by my side...
Can't go on without your love,
There's no song without your love...
Ain't no reason, ain't no rhyme,
Without your love I'll go out of my mind...
Been getting too lazy,
Letting myself go,
Feeling like a refugee
No one cares for anymore..
Endless lonely days,
I just try to get through
And there's no escape,
Even when I sleep.
'Cause all I dream is you...
Then my imagination
Gets the better of me,
'Cause you're everywhere I go,
In everything I see...
I can't go on without your love,
There ain't no song without your love...
There ain't so reason, there ain't no rhyme,
Without your love
I'll go out of my mind...
You make me dance,
You make me sing,
When I'm with you
I can do anything...
When I'm cold.
You keep me warm...
And give me shelter
From the howling storm
There ain't no reason, there ain't no rhyme,
Without your love
I'll go out of my mind...
Can't go on without your love,
There's no song without your love...
There ain't no reason, there ain't no rhyme,
Without your love
I was dreaming of the past,
Why do good times never last....
Help me Jesus, show the way
I can't hold on another day....
I was hungry, felling low,
I just couldn't make out which way to go
Chasing rainbows that have no end,
The road is long without friend...
Be my friend, be my brother,
Be the piper, play the call....
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul....
Just a young man looking homeward,
Watching the sun go down again....
Across the water the sun is shining,
But, will it ever be the same....
Be my friend, be my brother,
Be the piper, play the call....
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul....
I need somebody, I need someone,
I need somebody to call my own....
Like a blindman I can feel the heat of the sun,
But, like a blindman
I don't know where it's coming from....
Be my friend, be my brother,
Be the piper, play the call....
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul....
I need somebody, I need someone,
I need somebody to call my own....
Like a blindman I can feel the heat of the sun,
But, like a blindman
I know you, you know me
I'm the black sheep of the family
I'm in an' out of trouble
I'm the talk of the town
I get wild in the street
When the sun goes down...
I steal around, like a thief in the night
Dancing 'til the break of day
Bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street, wild in the city
I see you, you see me
Just a back street boy in society
With high-heeled women full of
champagne an' lies
Getting wild in the street
Til the hot sunrise
Stealing 'round like a thief in the night
Dancing 'til the break of day
Bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street
Wild in the city
Wild in the city
Wild in the city
Bad, bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street
Wild in the city
I know you, you know me
I'm the black sheep of the family
I'm in an' out of trouble
I'm the talk of the town
I get wild in the street
When the sun goes down...
I don't care what the people think
I can't hear what the people say
I steal around like a thief in the night
Dancing 'til the break of day
Bad, bad Boys
Running undercover of moonlight
Bad, bad Boys
Getting wild in the street
You talk too much,
Never saying what's on your mind,
It's written on your face,
An' in the words you hide behind
I know what you want,
I can see what you're looking for,
I know what you want from me,
An' I'm gonna give you more
I'm gonna slide it in
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it, in baby...
Sometimes you seem
Just like a stranger to me,
But, all the games you play
Make it so easy to see
You're looking for love,
Tho' you try to deny,
The things you put me through
Tell me what I've got to do to you
I'm gonna slide it in,
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in...
You talk too much,
Always treating me so unkind,
I know what I've got to do,
To get me some peace of mind
I'm gonna slide it in,
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it in,
Right to the top
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in, slide it,
Slide it in, slide it in,
Right to the top, baby...
(Coverdale/Moody)
In the shadows of the dark night,
You need a woman by your side..
She'll help you make it in the cold light
and keep you warm an' satisfied
If you want somemore lovin'
Drive you out of your mind
Give a little sweetness and sugar
just make it sure she understands...
White skin women keep me howlin' for more
Brown skin honey, I love
Got a whitesnake mama
You wanna shake it mama
Got a whitesnake mama
Come an' let it crawl on you,
just enough to see ya through
You want to find a little angel
Sweet surrender in her eyesv Broke down heart through morning
To the moon is on the rise
Night time is the right time
for rolling on the silent gloves
Daytime, nighttime, anytime is the right time
stealin' round and makin' some love...
White skin women keep me howlin' for more
Brown skin honey, I love
Got a whitesnake mama
You wanna shake it mama
Got a whitesnake mama
Come an' let it crawl on you,
just enough to see ya through
Listen...
Back door man ain't done nothing,
but creep around the door..
When you see his woman weepin'
You know the snake is there for more
Day time, night time is the right time
for rolling on the silent gloves
Night time is the right time
make it sure you're the only one
White skin women keep me howlin' for more
Brown skin honey, I love
Got a whitesnake mama,
You wanna shake it mama
Got a whitesnake mama
Come an' let it crawl on you,
and you, and you...
