When I call you on the phone
I could tell you were all alone
Oh, I wish I could be there with you
To brighten up you life
tho your someone elses wife
I can't stand to know your sad and blue
I care for you, I care for you
He's treating you unfair and don't seem to give a damn
Somehow I know hes taking things for granted
Well then here is what you should do
Tell him you both are through
Run to me, Run to me I care
I care for you, I care for you
Although you've made a vow
Before death you must not part
Honey, break it, (Break it) break it, (Break it) break it
Disrespect, dishonesty, thats not how its suppose to be
Come to me I care
I'll always be your friend until the very end
Baby, baby I'll be there for you
You need someone who cares
Someone who understands
but will never make you sad and blue
I care for you
I care for you, Oh baby
Baby, baby, baby
When I call you on the phone
I could tell you were all alone
Oh, I wish I could be there with you
To brighten up your life
tho your someone elses wife
I can't stand to know your sad and blue
I care for you, I care for you
He's treating you unfair and don't seem to give a damn
Somehow I know hes taking things for granted
Well then here is what you should do
Tell him you both are through
Run to me, Run to me I care
I care for you
Although you've made a vow
Before death you must not part
Honey, break it, (Break it) break it, (Break it) break it
Disrespect, dishonesty, thats not how its suppose to be
Come to me I care
Oh I lift up my heads to the father
Cause he made me strong
He put the food on my table
Yes and in my heart he songs
Oh Jah I love you so
Mighty God I need you so,
Sing Along
Haliluja, praise his name
Haliluja, highest praise
Haliluja, night and day
Haliluja
2. Praises for Jah both young and old
Its better than silver and gold
Silver and gold will vanish away
But the love of my father is here to stay
Woe be unto the sheperd
That leads his sheeps astray
On that day they all shall pay
I'm not afraid to praise him
Forget my troubles and praise him
I'm not afraid to sing
Open my heart and let him come in
Cause I'm singing and I'm chanting in spirit
Heathen them hear it, and Jah know dem nuh love it
But let them knoe that I am one of Jah prophet
By the look in your eye I can tell you're gonna cry, is it over me?
If it is, save your tears for I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the kind of guy who is always on the roam,
Wherever I Lay My Hat That's My Home.
You had a romance, did you break it by chance over me?
If it's so I'd like for you to know that I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of guy who is always on the roam,
Wherever I Lay My Hat That's My Home,
You keep telling your friends that I'm your man.
What do I have to do to make you understand?
For I'm the kind of guy that gives girl the eye, everybody knows.
But I love them and I leave them, break their hearts and deceive them
everywhere I go.
I'm the type of guy who is always on the roam,
There are lots of signs in life
some that you may not like
you could be living this minute
the next minute your gone away aye
Hold up your heads my brothers
Be conscious, my sisters
And by your works you shall surely be paid aye
Chorus:
(Never...)
Never try to dis the man with the angle
(Ever...)
the one whose got the title
The one who sits high and he looks down low (aye, aye)
(Never...)
And if you ever dis the man with the angle
(Ever...)
the one who got the title
then you'll be someone that he dont know
Say a prayer and chant a psalm
Prayer that can keep the evil calm
You dont have to go to church and be a christian to call on Jah name
(Hallelljah)
Shout out the name Jahovah in the Valley
(Jahovah)
Shout out the name Jahovah on the Hills
(Hallelljah)
Shout out the name Jahovah on the Plains
(Jahovah)
Or even if it rains
Call on the name (Amen)
Call on (Amen) Jah name the same
Call on the name (Amen) yea (Amen)
CHORUS
Listen up, I no time skin-up
Time is short and Life is precious aye
Listen up, I no time skin-up
Life is short no time is precoius
You got to have the heart of a lion
if you want to reach mount Zion
You can never be afraid
just calll on his name
Life is no game...
(Life, Life, Life is no game)2x
Life is no game
(Life, Life, Life is no game)
CHORUS
There are lots of signs in life
Some that you may not like
You could be living this minute
The next minute your gone away aye
HOLD UP you heads my brothers
BE Conscious my sisters
And by your works you shall surely be paid ye, aye
I'm alone I am waiting sitting here alone
waiting for my baby to come on home to me
to give me all I need, but I'm afraid
thinking some else will take you instead

because I don't know what to do
Can't remember the last time I saw you
Can't remember the last time we kissed

Verse 1
Hey girl, I will always be true to you
(ooooooooo)
It's not only a feeling, it's an endless concept
Oh, how I love this feeling for you
(ooooooooo)
It is the real thing, I can almost taste it
Bridge
When I rise early in the morning and I look in the mirror
Reflections of your lovely face
With tears in my eyes, as I give thanks onto the father
Who be holding such wonderful treasure all along
Verse 2
Theres never a day I don't think about you
My mind's a mess and my heart's in distress
Often I wonder about the things you do
Honey please don't forsake me, cause my heart is so true
Holding you now, would be my greatest desire
And seeing you walk through the door
This love for you, can never be measured
Just come on home to me, that's all that matters
Chorus
I'll always be true to you
(ooooooooo)
Yes, I'll always be true to you
(ooooooooo)
Verse 3
Closer, yes we are to be, baby you know you belong to me
Come on home, Come on home
Seems like my bed is to wide, girl I need you by my side
This house is not a home - without you to call my own
Tired of talking on the phone
When you hang up, baby Im still all alone
Chorus
I'll always be true to you
(ooooooooo)
Its not only a feeling, its an endless concept
Oh, how I love this feeling for you
It is the real thing, I can almost taste it
(Song begins to fade out)
When I rise early in the morning and I look in the mirror
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
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 do?
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
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 shadow of the blues,
Looking for you I've been looking for me
Looking for something to help me believe
I cried for mercy
I have prayed to the Lord
The angels have fallen and now I cry some more
Meet me at the crossroads to show me which way to turn
I've tried so hard but 1 never seem to learn
Too many cloudy days
And so many sleepless nights
Hoping for Jesus to make everything alright
Rivers run dry for you and I
Now there's a storm and it's coming my way
Heading for a showdown
Blood red sky
The tears you cry
Now there's a fire and it's burning
Standing here in a curtain of iron
So here I stand in this spotlight it's my destiny
Waiting for the coming day trying to find the key
Looking for you I'm still looking for me
Looking for something to help me believe
Rivers run dry for you and I
Now there's a storm and it's coming my way
Heading for a showdown
Blood red sky
The tears you cry
Now there's a fire and it's burning
Standing here in a curtain of iron
I'll go where the wind blows to the end of the rainbow
Drifting slowly to the point of no return
Will the children ever learn
Looking for you i've been looking for me
Oh how we cried on that dark day
September tears like showers of rain
All hope gone
A space remains
And all the damage is done
A nation's loss
The children's friend
The people cried from end to end
I wonder how she would sigh
The people hurt inside
So lift up your heart
Make a new start
Try to help us understand
Why the people cried all over this land
It's not the time to ask them why
It's time for flowers and a kiss goodbye
Remember the times we had
And don't be so sad
Lift up your hearts
Make a new start
In time we will understand
Why the people cried
All over this land
(Solo)
Oh how we cried on that dark day
I got high I got down
Took the fast train into town
Spend my time in a world
Where crazies ran the show
Girl talk turned me round
My feet sure left the ground
And I left the real world somewhere down below
I had sacrificial feelings on my mind
When you offer up your soul
To the cause of rock an' roll
There's a price to pay
And it's as high as you wanna go
So when they ring that judgement bell
Just a few short steps from hell
Then it's time to jump that train
And head on home
I had sacrificial feelings on my mind
Into the snow I was driving blind
I was burning up before I had my time
When I need somebody to lead me by the hand
You help me find a higher plane, you help me understand
Help me find a sanctuary to keep my feelings save
And lead me through another day with undivided faith
Help me mama to spread the real faith...
Start with good intentions strictly for the lord
And see that wealth and luxury helps to spread the holy word
The lord hath given TV sets to get the message through
And all I want in lieu is a healthy cheque from you
Help me mama to spread the real faith
Tell the children the TV ain't save
So help me mama to spread the real faith
Don't you know we got the real faith
We already got the real faith.....
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
Deviance and mortal sin bring anger from above
The eye of the lord saw me with a less than gilded dove
It's what those fools out there can't see that puts the blame on you
And mamma now don't prey for me this cheating live is through
Help me mama to spread the real faith
Tell the children the TV ain't save
So help me mama to spread the real faith
Don't you know we got the real faith
Little miss happiness oh how I yearn for you
Just open your heart and let your love come through
Little miss happiness I have to tell you this
I can't hide away don't let it end like this
Where will you go?
What will I do?
Don't ever wanna be a stranger to you
What am I gonna do?
Little miss happiness as far as I can see
You are the only one who can pacify me
And now I hear you are leaving I can't believe it's true
Before it starts it's over that's what love will do
Where will you go?
What will I do?
I don't ever wanna be a stranger to you
What am I gonna do?
You're a queen not a prisoner
I hope I have the key
You can do almost anything
But don't forget about me
Little miss happiness my arms are open wide
We can run but we can never hide
Little miss happiness no matter what we do
Remember there's a place in my heart for you
Where will you go?
What will I do?
Don't ever wanna be a stranger to you
Little miss happiness oh how I yearn for you
What am I gonna do?
Tired of reading papers, I'm even tired of Q.
All I ever seem to do is play my delta blues.
Hiding in the corner, don't ever go outside.
Same sweet talking women ain't gonna take me for a ride.
Ain't got no need to be sorry, ain't ever done you no wrong.
Ain't going back in no hurry, baby thats why
This is a labour of love.......
You don't need to fax me, don't even need to call.
I'm sitting here alone I don't need you any more.
I just can't take the heartache, I always fall in love.
You push me here you pull me there you put the pressure on.
Ain't got no need to be sorry, ain't ever done you no wrong.
Ain't going back in no hurry, tell me why
This is a labour of love.......
Don't get to excited, girl you won't see me run.
I just can't fight it
You got the power of love.......
(Solo)
Ain't got no need to be sorry, ain't ever done you no wrong.
Ain't going back in no hurry, baby that's why
This is a labour of love.......
Tell me why
I was so blind just could not see
There was no way out for you or me
We were young and restless
Trying to break free from the strong arm of society
Now I'm a lonesome Jailbird
With no more tears to cry
I've seen so many faces passing by
I can still remember all the good times we had
Sweet lady the thought of you makes me feel so sad
There's a hole in the wall with the light shining in
Now it's time to begin
Cause I got places to go
I got things to see
Now I have to believe
I'm gonna find the sun
Pack my things and run
I'm gonna breathe the midnight air
Look for love somewhere
So many bridges burned
So many lessons learned
My heart's getting old
As the worlds grows bolder
Time is a hunter chasing me down
Got ta get out of here
Before I hit the ground
There's a hole in the wall with the light shining in
Now it's time to begin
I got places to go
I got things to see
And I have to believe
I'm gonna find the sun
Pack my things and run
I'm gonna breathe the midnight air
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
Don't break my heart again, like you did before
Sometimes I'm filled with confusion
I think I've been here before
Just how well do you know me
I try to run but I can't find the door
I'm all alone in the city
Seems like I'm out of control Ain't no doubt it's a pity, all alone another lost soul
Hold back the years, hold all your fears
You can't go back
Hold back the years, hold back the tears
You can't go back......
I've got to look for somebody
Seems like I've looked everywhere
I'm always looking for strangers
Can't find myself anywhere
Is there anybody out there
Who can help me find my way
I'm not looking for favours
Who needs them anyway
Hold back the years, hide all your fears
You can't go back
Hold back the years, hold back the tears
You can't go back......
Nowhere to run, I don't want to hide
The comfort of strangers cannot be denied....
(Solo)
Time is moving so slowly, tell me where should I go
I don't know, somebody help me
I'm only searching for home
Hold back the years, hold all your fears
You can't go back
Hold back the years, hold back the tears
Waiting all day for the night to come down
There's a midnight sun hanging over this town
People getting high with a moonshine glow
Take your woman now and join the show
Drinking my fill from a loving cup
Cruisin' 61 in a pick up truck
Chokin' my beer soaking up my blues
Got her best dress on and hi-heel shoes
All dressed up all dressed up
Sure is time to rock and roll
All dressed up and ready to go
All dressed up....
Johnny and Rick knew how to hoochie coo
Well it's been a long time since we heard from you
Nothing changes you know its true
I got a good time peeling I wanna share it with you
All dressed up all dressed up
Now is the time to rock and roll
All dressed up all dressed up
Sure is the time to rock and roll
All dressed up and ready to go
(Solo)
If you are late and stuck up on 94
Take a right at Fifth and Rodeo
Put your foot on the gas
And your hand on her knee
Cause she's hotter than hell
And eager to please
All dressed up all dressed up
Now is the time for rock and roll
Out in the darkness where the lonely walk alone
No hands to the rescue, got ta make it on my own
Used to wake in the morning when the sun was coming round
Now I learn my lesson since you change my life around
I've been wasting to much time
I'm making up my mind
I can't live like this for the rest of my days
Cause I have seen what love can do
To me and to you...
Your love has changed me, I know it's hard to tell
Ain't gonna put my faith in a wishing well
Now I need an answer, all I get is no reply
Girl I ain't no chancer, it's a love we can't deny
Lonely days and wasted nights
I been running away from life
Baby I just can't explain cause I have seen
What love can do to me and to you...
If I'm gonna change your mind
Give me the chance and I will show you
I'm truly sorry
How can I make you see just what you mean to me
I just hope that I can change your mind
(Solo)
Sometimes I wonder just what I'm gonna do
I've been wasting to much time
I'm making up my mind
I can't live like this for the rest of my days
Cause I have seen what love can do
Don't tell them anything
`Cause they might lock you away
Don't even sneak a smile
You think that's gold `tween your legs
Don't show them anything
Don't even let on you care
They'll know that you're insame
Or even worse that you're square
Better not mess with a skinny
Little rat like me
You'll see the depths of cruelty
Don't stop your might creepin
You're not alone in that crowd
Spend all the day sleeping
And tightly wrapped in your shroud
Better not mess with a skinny
Little rat like me
You'll see the depths of cruelty
Don't stop your day dreaming
Just stay on top of that Cloud
Killers and cops scheaming
You'll stand alone but proud
Better not mess with a skinny
Little Rat like me
You didn't hear me when I tried to tell you
You didn't see me when I looked so lonely
You didn't answer when I said "where you going"
You didn't see the way you drive me crazy
Baby what's wrong with me?
I can't seem to turn your head
Baby what's wrong with me?
I'm always going home to an empty bed
You've got my number you never use it
You've got my choice but you never chose it
You've got those brown eyes they're hiding something
If I could open up I'd let you in
Maybe someday there'll a full moon
We'll be together in the same room
Open our eyes see what we're missing
I'll take my love at first sight
I don't need no promises tonight
It's just a song it's sung and it's gone
I don't get to play for very long
But you wait for me
Standing at the door
Sitting in my room
Sleeping on the floor
It's just a kiss and it don't last
The day is long but the night goes so fast
I put on my boots and I head for the door
I lose again but hey who's keeping score
If love is learning to say goodbye
I've spent all my life just learning to cry
But time will heal the bloodiest scar
Wow! Have love, oh baby will travel, ah-ha
Have love, oh babe I will travel
I said if you need a lovin' man, mmm I'll travel
Well, I'll travel from Maine to Mexico
Just to find a little girl that loves me so
No matter where, no matter where I'll be
I'm lookin' for a woman that'll satisfy me
Have love, oh baby I will travel, I say yeah-yeah
Have love, oh baby I will travel
I said if you need a lovin' man, mmm I'll travel
(Wow!)
Have love, oh baby I will travel, oh yeah-yeah
Have love, pretty baby I will travel
I said if you need a lovin' man, mmm I'll travel
Well, I might take a boat or I'll take a plane
I might hitchhike or jump a railroad train
Your kind of love drives a man insane
So look for me walkin' just a any old way
Have love, oh baby I will travel, yeah
Have love, pretty baby will travel
I said if you need a lovin' man, mmm I'll travel
Oh, I said if you need a lovin' man, oh I'll travel
Wow, baby your driving me crazy

Gonna mail it to my local DJ.
It's a rockin' little record
I want my jockey to play.
Roll Over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.
You know, my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
My heart's beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin' the blues.
Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
I got the rockin' pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
I think I'm rollin' arthiritis
Sittin' down by the rhythm review.
Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
Well, if you feel you like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
Roll it over and move on up just
A trifle further and reel and rock it,
Roll it over,
Roll Over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
-GUITAR SOLO-
Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you a warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
Hey diddle diddle, I will play my fiddle,
Ain't got nothin' to lose.
Roll Over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
Spinnin' like a spinnin' top.
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see 'em reel and rock.
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven,

Of straight strychnine (hey, hey)
You may think it's funny
That I like this stuff
But once you've tried it
You can't get enough (Wow!)
Wine is red
Poison is blue
Strychnine is good
For what's ailin' you
If you listen to what I say
You'll try strychnine some day
Make you jump, it'll make you shout
It'll even knock you out
Some folks like water
Some folks like wine
But I like the taste
Of straight strychnine (Wow!)
Strychnine hey, hey

She's the sharpest one
In the whole wide world
I want to be her man

Disapeared by herself

I woke up this mornin, looked around my four walls
And a dream told me you aint happy at all
I packed up my bags, I took my last look and then
Look out, pretty mom, Im on the road again
Im on the road again
(Just as sure as youre born)
Im on the road again
(Just as sure as youre born)
Look out, pretty mom, Im on the road again
I ran home last night to get my dinner hot
I pulled on my door and found the door was locked
I jumped through the window and believe it or not
She had not even put my dinner in the pot
Ive never been evil and Ive never been sly
But if I sit some place and let the time roll by
I start to get restless, pack my bags up and then
Louie Louie, me gotta go now
Louie Louie, me gotta go now
A fine girl, she wait for me.
Me catch the ship across the sea.
Then sailed me ship all alone.
Never think I'll make it home.
Louie Louie, me gotta go now.
Louie Louie, me gotta go now.
Three nights and days we sailed the sea.
Me think of girl constantly.
And on the ship, I dream she' there.
I smell the rose in her hair.
Louie Louie, me gotta go now
Louie Louie, me gotta go now
Louie Louie, me gotta go now
Louie Louie, me gotta go now
Me see Jamacan moon above.
It won't be long me see me love.
Me take her in my arms again
I tell that I dream her there.
On the day I went away... goodbye...
Was all I had to say... now I...
I want to come again and stay... Oh my my...
Smile, and that will mean that I may
Cause I've seen blue skies, through the tears
In my eyes
And I realise. I'm going home.
Everywhere it's been the same... feeling...
Like I'm outside in the rain... wheeling...
Free, to try and find a game... dealing...
Cards for sorrow, cards for pain
Cause I've seen blue skies through the tears
In my eyes
And I realise. I'm going home.
Well, I had a little girl
She was so mean to me
Told her off now
Yes indeed
Said
Your dirty robber
Your dirty robber
Well, you've taken my love
Then you run away
Well, I went to her house

Well, you've taken my love
Then you run away
