Well, I stand up next to a mountain
And I chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I stand up next to a mountain,
Chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island,
Might even raise just a little sand.
'Cause I'm a voodoo chile,
Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile, baby.
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
I'll give it right back to you one of these days.
I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,

Now tell me darlin' may I have a talk with you
Because the words I have to tell you they will linger through the years
Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running wild
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and a fairy tale
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding the wind
When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles she gives to me free
It's alright she says...It's alright
Take anything you want from me
Anything

Comin' through this business of life
There's rarely time if I'm needed to
Ain't so funny when things ain't feelin' right
Then daddy's hand helps to see me through
Sweet as sugar love won't wash away
Rain or shine, it always here to stay
All these years you and I've spent together
All this, we just couldn't stand the weather
Like a train that stops at every station
We all deal with trials and tribulations
Fear hangs the fell
ow that ties up his years
Entangled in yellow and cries all his tears
Changes come before we can go
Learn to see them before we're too old
Don't just take me for tryin' to be heavy

Hurry here hustlin' there no one's got the time to spare
Money's tight nothin' free won't somebody come and rescue me

Tooth for tooth eye for an eye sell your soul just to buy buy buy
Beggin' a dollar stealin' a dime come on can't you see that i
I am stranded caught in the crossfire
I am stranded caught in the crossfire
I need some kind of kindness some kind of sympathy oh no
We're stranded caught in the crossfire
Save the strong lose the weak never turning the other cheek
Trust nobody don't be no fool whatever happened to the golden rule
We got stranded caught in the crossfire

Stranded caught in the crossfire

Hello there, my old friend
Not so long ago it was 'til the end
We played outside in the pouring rain
On our way up the road, we started over again
You're living a dream as though you're on top
My mind is aching, Lord, it won't stop
That's how it happens living life by the drop
Up and down that road in our worn out shoes
Talking 'bout good thangs and signing the blues
You went your way and I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter of time
Living a dream as though you're on top
My mind is aching, Lord, it won't stop
That's how it happens living life by the drop
No waste of time, we're alive today
Turning up the past, there's no easier way
Time's been between us, a means to an end
God, it's good to be here walking together, my friend
Living a dream, my mind starts thinking
That's how it happens living life by the drop
That's how it happens living life by the drop
That's how it happens living life by the drop
Well now sittin' here so lonely
Feelin' oh so blue
My baby's tryin' to mistreat me
And I don't know what to do
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby
I can't live another day
Yeah I've loved her for such a long time
To end it all this way
Sittin' here so lonely
Tears be fallin' just like rain
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby
I can't live another day
Yeah you know I love you baby
I'll do anything for you
But when we start to fightin'
I just get these same old blues
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby
I can't live another day
Yeah now when I first met you baby
At a dance and we did fine
Now we're together
And it's a total waste of time
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love you baby
I can't live another day
Well I guess it's just my own fault
The truth I cannot hide
But if I ever get you back dear
I'll stay right by your side
I won't be cryin'
I'll stay happy that a way
I'll be lovin' my little baby
People talkin' but they just don't know....What's in my heart and why I love you so
I love you baby like a miner loves gold....Come on baby let the good times roll
Let the good times roll....Come on it soothes my soul
Oh let the good times roll....Come on, come on, come on
A lot of people live in make believe....They keep a lot of dirt up their sleeve
My love baby ain't the kind to fold....Come on baby let the good times roll
Let the good times roll....Come on an' let it roll
Aw yeah....Let it roll....Come on....Let it roll
Our lovin's nice if it's understood....It's even nicer when you feel so good
You got me flippin' like a flag on a pole....Come on sugar let the good times roll
Oh let the good times roll....Come on let it roll.....Come on, come on
Come on, come on.....Come on and let it roll
Come to me baby....Come to me C.O.D.

You know special delivery....Return so many line
Ah special delivery....Return too many line

Went down to Tin Pan Alley
See what was going on
Things was too hot down there
Couldn't stay very long
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Livin' for their whiskey, wine, and gin
I heard a woman scream
Yeah and I peeped through the door
Some cat was workin' on Annie with a
Lord with a two-by-four
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Livin' for their whiskey, wine, and gin
I heard a pistol shoot
Yeah and it was a 44
Somebody killed a crap shooter
'Cause he didn't shake, rattle, and roll
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Killin' for their whiskey, wine, and gin
I saw a cop standing
With his hand on his gun
He said, "This is a raid, boy
Nobody run"
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
Yeah they took me away from that alley
After all the jacks are in their boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
Footsteps dressed in red
And the wind whispers Mary
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces of yesterdays life
Somewhere a queen is weeping
Somewhere a king has no wife
And the wind, it cries Mary
The traffic lights, they turn, uh, blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags down stream
?Cause the life that lived is, is dead
And the wind screams Mary
Uh, will the wind ever remember
The names it has blow in the past?
And with this crutch, it?s old age and it?s wisdom
It whispers no, this will be the last
You better leave
You better leave my little girl alone
You better leave
You better leave my little girl alone
Lord before I get evil man
And I go and do something wrong
You call my house just yesterday
I picked up the extension
And I heard every word you said
Why don't you just go on
Man and leave my little girl alone
Lord before I get evil man
And I go and do something wrong
You call my house all hours of the night
Let me tell you mister
That's a sure, sure way to start a fight
Why don't you just go on
Man and leave my little girl alone
Lord before I get evil man
Got my head on my shoulders, my feet on the ground
To keep from breakin' out of this blues side of town
If you have to know, do you have to know
I've been too far up, too far down, if you have to know
They went and locked me up for 47 days
Wouldn't let me out and I wouldn't change my ways
If you have to know, do you want to know
I take what I get and I play where I stay, if you have to know
I'm a runaway engine on a midnight line
No destination and no track of time
Ain't worried about yours, don't worry about mine
If you have to know, since you have to know
Well too many bars and too many nights
Too many lefts and not enough rights
If you have to know, do you have to know
I'm the last one to leave and the first one to fight, if you have to know
Got a whole lot of women, a whole lot of beer
Half outta whiskey and flat out of Chester Fields
If you have to know....do you have to know
God knows I love you, baby, tell the world I do
God knows I love you, darlin', tell the world I do
I'l do anythang, just to be loved by you
Got so much trouble, I. . .don't know what to do
Got so much trouble, I. . .don't know what to do
Yeah, I'll do anythang, just to make love to you
I want to hug ya, kiss ya, squeeze ya till my arms fall off
I wants to hug ya, kiss ya, squeeze ya till my arms fall off
God knows about that, baby. . .baby, that I love you so
Got so much trouble, I. . .don't know what to do
Got so much trouble, I. . .don't know what to do
Yeah, I'll do anythang just to make love to you
I want to hug ya, kiss ya, squeeze ya till my arms fall off
I wants to hug ya, kiss ya, squeeze ya till my arms fall off
Roll and I'll just feel somethin'
It's hard to be
It's hard for me to keep arm's length from my baby
Woa, can't you see
When I'm away from her it sho' nuff drives me crazy
Oh, something inside of me
When she's gone I miss her so
I wanna tell her how I feel
Just gotta let her know
When I'm alone with her
And she's in my arms I'm in heaven
Say things to me like a cowgirl would
I'll do tricks for you like a cowboy should
You look romantic layin' in the hay
I need you tonight in a new kinda way
When you look at me with those eyes
It makes me start to fantasize
Do it to me, like I know you could
So I can do it to you, baby, like a Texan should
Ridin' the range, I think of you
I dig your chili, you know it's true
Oh, I make big money put it in the bank
That longhorn Caddy got a great big tank
Do it to me, like I know you could
So I can do it to you, baby, like a Texan should, oh
Well, you're the kinda woman who's above the rest
Well, nothing for me but the best
You say, you need a fella who really can
Do it to you good, like a Texan man
Massive wardrobe of cowboy clothes
Top of my head to the tip of my toes
Oh, you look so good in my hat with fringe on it
So put on my boots, doggone it
Do it to me, like I know you could
I do it to you, like a Texan should
Do it to me, baby, like I know you could
I'm goin' down, down, down, down, down, down
I'm goin' down, down, down, down, down, down
I got my big feet in the window, my head is on the ground
Let me down and close that boxcar door
Let me down and close that boxcar door
I'm goin' back to Chattanooga and sweep up that sorry floor
I'm goin' down, down, down, down, down, down
I'm goin' down, down, down, down, down, down
Give me back my wig
Honey, now let your head go bald.

You didn't want me no way baby, till your other man was gone
You can try to get me back baby, with all your tricks and charms

A wall of denial
Is fallin' down
Wo it's fallin' so hard
Down to the ground
Never knew something so strong
Could be washed away by tears
But this wall of denial
Was just built on fear
We've all had our demons
From the garden of white lies
Dressed them amused them
Pullin' wool over our eyes
Go so far as to love them
To keep from letting them go
All the while they we're killin' us
But we couldn't let it show
No matter what the trouble
We carry round inside
We're never safe from the truth
But in the truth we can survive
When this wall of denial
Comes tumblin' down
Down to the ground
Simple things in life
Bring the greatest pleasure
A smile, a kiss
A little baby's laughter
It makes no difference
If we run away in fear
The little things in life hold us so near
No matter what the trouble
We carry round inside
Never safe from the truth
But in the truth we can survive
When this wall of denial
Comes tumblin' down
Yeah this wall of denial
Must tumble down
Down to the ground
Well they call me hurricane an' I've
Come to play in your town
Yeah they call hurricane an' I've
Come to play in your town
If you don't like my music
I'm sure gonna drive to your town
Yeah I like my pocket full of money'n my
Whiskey, gin and wine
Yes I like my pocket full of money'n my
Whiskey, gin and wine
Y'all I can come to dinner
Love my lovin' all the time
Yeah they call me hurricane an' I've
Come to play in your town
Yeah they call me hurricane an' I've
Come to play in your town
If I can't play this guitar
I'm sure gonna drive to your town
Woke up this morning I was all alone
Saw your picture by the telephone
I was missing you oh so bad
Wish I had you here to hold
All I've got is this touch-tone phone
So I guess I'll give you a call
Operator help me please
Get thru to my baby way overseas
Time's a wastin' oh so fast
Hello baby tell me is that you
I don't know what we're gonna do
But for now I'm glad I got you on the line
Well it feels so fine
Knowing you're all right
But you're miles away
Lord it's not the same
Well I woke up this morning I was all alone
Saw your picture by the telephone
I've been missing you baby oh so bad
I love you baby with all my might
Come on home and squeeze me tight
Long distance lovin's gonna drive me out of my mind
[spoken words as music fades]
You better come on home baby
I'm about to go crazy
Im tired a huggin' my pillow at night
It sure don't kiss as good as you
Know all them pictures you gave me
Well them lips won't move at all
And them clothes in the closet
They look a lot better on you than they do on the hangers
Besides, I just can't wait to get my arms around you
Come on home
They were two lonely folks doin' the do's and don'ts
And got the notion together they'd be happy
Thought they'd lose the crowd 'n' do the mess around
Decided to make it snappy
Just a twist of fate they didn't hesitate
Now they had another party to lean on
She made him jump and sang he made her share that thang
Looks like they gonna have a ball ain't nothin' wrong at all
Wo they gonna have a ball
They got to askin' what if they had to scratch-n-sniff
To find out what it is they are after
Got the ants out their pants 'n' took the chance on romance
Made some plans to make it forever
Now several years have gone they still gettin' along
They know what true love is made of
Now they know that life's a trip with all it's bumps and dips
They gonna help one another along
Nothin' wrong at all still havin' a ball
Lord they really gettin' it on
Time is on their side they got nothin' to hide
Never had no secrets between them
He don't need to accuse her, use her or abuse her
And she feels the same for him
And those vows they made said nothin' 'bout slaves
And didn't mention rentin' to own
They can take the stand that walkin' hand in hand
What they got is gooder than gold
Ain't nothin' wrong at all wo they gonna have a ball
Yeah they really got it all
Love is true heart's desire without it's just a funeral pyre
Got to let your true love grow it's all you got that's gooder than gold
Let's get it on ya'll
Well now now darlin may a have a little talk with you
Well now now now now darlin may a have a little talk with you
Because it won't be long before our true love will be through
Well now now now darlin am I right or am I wrong
Yeah now now now darlin am I right or am I wrong
Because it won't be long befor our true love will be through
You know I like my coffee sweet in the morning
and I'm crazy about my tea at night
Yeah I like my coffee sweet in the morning little girl
and I'm crazy about my tea at night
You know you'd come out a little better now baby
All I want you to do is treat me right
Well I'm a love struck baby I must confess
Life without darlin' is a solid mess
Thinkin' bout you baby gives me such a thrill
I gotta have you baby, can't get my fill
I love you baby and I know just what to do
I still remember and let it be said
The way you make me feel take a fool to forget
I swore a ton of bricks had hit me in the head
And what you do little baby ain't over it yet
Every time I see you make me feel so fine
Heart beatin' crazy, my blood run wild
Lovin' makes me feel like a might mighty man
Love me baby aint i your man
I'm a love struck baby
Yeah I'm a love struck baby
You got me love struck baby
And I know just what to do
Sparks start flyin' every time we meet
Let me tell you baby you knock me off my feet
Your kisses trip me up they're so dog gone sweet
Ya know baby you can't be beat
I'm a love struck baby
Yeah I'm a love struck baby
You got me love struck baby
And I know just what to do
I wants to know what your doin' tonight
Wish I could see if everything was alright
Hold you long in my arms until it's light
Your smilin' face would make a wonderful sight
I wants to be with ya, love with ya, eat with ya, sleep with ya, stay with me all of my life
I loved ya darlin' when ya's only sixteen
Was the sweetest thing to enter my dream
When we're together then my life is fulfilled
I love you darlin' I know I always will
I wants to be with ya, love with ya, eat with ya, sleep with ya, stay with me all of my life
I close my letter but never my love
Take it there to ya heaven above
Get me back to you safe and sound
The day that I leave the prisoners ground
Once was a sweet thing, baby
Held that love in our hands
But now I reach to kiss your lips
It just don't mean a thing
And that's a cold shot, baby
Yeah that's a drag
A cold shot, babe
I've let our love go bad
Remember the way that you loved me
Do anything I say
Now I see you out somewhere
You won't give me the time of day
And that's a cold shot, girl
Yeah that's a drag
That's a cold shot, babe
We've let our love go bad
I really meant I was sorry
For ever causing you pain
You showed your appreciation
By walking out anyway
And that's a cold shot, baby
Yeah that's a drag
That's a cold shot, babe
We've let our love go bad
So sad...
Too bad...
So sad...
You can't change it
Can't re-arrange it
If time is all that we got
Then baby let's take it
Lovin' is a lovin'
The moment is a-right
It's worth all the years in the past
Let's go one more night
Get away from the blind side of life
Honey I want you to be by my side
Me and my back door moves ain't no more
No more
Get away from the blind side of life
Honey I want you to be by my side
Me and my back door moves ain't no more
No more
Get away from the blind side of life
Honey I want you to be by my side
Me and my back door moves ain't no more
No more
Goodnight my darlin'
Another day has passed
Forget all those painful memories
Our love's gonna last
Come to me baby
Come to me one more time
It's time we got movin'
Time to move on
Let's slide out the door
Let's slide out the door
Glide our way home
Let's glide our way home
Let's go, let's go
Let's go, let's go
Let's go, let's go
I ain't gone 'n' give up on love
Love won't give up on me
I ain't gone 'n' give up on love
Love ain't gone 'n' give up on me
Every tear that I've cried
Only washed away the fear inside
Now I, I ain't gone 'n' give up on love
Every beat of my heart
Pounds with joy and not with pain
Every beat of my heart
Pounds with joy and not in vain
And although those are painful memories
Only brought me to my knees
I was just given up on love
Little Johnny Taylor told us so long ago
What about the midnight cryin'
Wo that cheatin' and lyin'
What about the price that will
Oh surely be paid
Those that gave up on love
Love will have it's day
I ain't givin' up on love
I ain't gone 'n' give up on love
Love won't give up on me
I ain't gone 'n' give up on love
Love won't give up on me
Every time I cry
Love just won't let me be
Well you've heard about love
givin' sight to the blind
My baby's lovin' cause
the sun to shine
(chorus)
She's my sweet little thang
She's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby
I'm her little lover boy
Yeah I love my baby
heart and soul
Love like ours won't
never grow old
(chorus)
Yeah I love my lady
she's long and lean
You mess with her
you'll see a man get mean
(chorus)
Well I love my baby
like the finest wine
Stick with her
until the end of time
(chorus)
Yeah I love my baby
heart and soul
Love like ours won't
never grow old
You so sweet - you so fine
How I wish - you were mine
Honey I'll - be your love
You'll be mine - you'll be mine
You so nice - you so true
I'm so glad - I love you
Honey I'll - be your love
You'll be mine - you'll be mine
Tell me - pretty baby
If you - gonna try

Willie the Wimp was buried today,
They laid him to rest in a special way.
Sent him off in the finest style
That casket-mobile really drove 'em wild
Southside Chicago will think of him often
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin,
Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
That casket, it looked like a fine Seville
He had a vanity license and a Cadillac grille
Willie was propped up in the driver's seat
He had diamonds on his fingers and a smile sweet
Fine red suit had the whole town talkin'
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
Oh, Cadillac to Heaven he was wavin' the banner
He left like he lived, in a lively manner
With a-hundred dollar bills in his fingers tight
He had flowers for wheels and a-flashin' headlights
He been wishin' for wings, no way he was walkin'
Talkin' 'bout Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac coffin
Went down to Tin Pan Alley
See what was going on
Things was too hot down there
Couldn't stay very long
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Livin' for their whiskey, wine, and gin
I heard a woman scream
Yeah and I peeped through the door
Some cat was workin' on Annie with a
Lord with a two-by-four
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Livin' for their whiskey, wine, and gin
I heard a pistol shoot
Yeah and it was a 44
Somebody killed a crap shooter
'Cause he didn't shake, rattle, and roll
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Killin' for their whiskey, wine, and gin
I saw a cop standing
With his hand on his gun
He said, "This is a raid, boy
Nobody run"
Hey hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
Yeah they took me away from that alley
Caught up in a whirlwind can't catch my breath
Knee deep in hot water, broke out in a cold sweat
Can't catch a turtle in this rat race
Feels like I'm losin' time at a breakneck pace
Afraid of my own shadow in the face of grace
Heart full of darkness spotlight on my face
There was love all around me but I was lookin' for revenge
Thank God it never found me would have been the end
Walkin' the tightrope, steppin' on my friends
Walkin' the tightrope, it was a shame and a sin
Walkin' the tightrope between wrong and right
Walkin' the tightrope both day and night
Lookin' back in front of me, the mirror's a grin
Through eyes of love I see I'm really lookin' at a friend
We've all had our problems, that's the way life is
My heart goes out to others, who are there to make amends?
We've been walkin' the tightrope tryin' to make it right
Walkin' the tightrope, every day and every night
Walkin' the tightrope, bring it all around
Walkin' the tightrope from the lost to found
Walkin' the tightrope, stretched around the world
Walkin' the tightrope, save the boys and girls
Walkin' the tightrope, let's make it right
Walkin' the tightrope, do it, do it tonight
One night while sleeping in my bed
I had a beautiful dream that all the people
Of the world got together on the same wavelength
And began helping one another
Now in this dream universal love was the theme of the day
Peace and understanding and it happened this way
The sick, the hungry had smiles on their faces
The tired and the homeless had family all around
The streets and the cities were all beautiful places
And the walls came tumblin' down
People of the world all had it together
Had it together for the boys and the girls
And the children of the world look forward to a future
Remember tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock people, time's tickin' away
Remember that tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock people, time's tickin' away
I had a vision of blue skies from sea to shining sea
All the trees in the forest stood strong and tall again
Everything was clean and pretty and safe for you and me
The worst of enemies became the best of friends
People of the world all had it together
Had it together for the boys and the girls
Children of the world look forward to a future
Remember tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock people, time's tickin' away
Remember that tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock people, time's tickin' away
Remember that, remember that
Remember that, remember that
People of the world all had it together
Had it together for the boys and the girls
Children of the world look forward to a future
Remember tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock people, time's tickin' away
Remember that tick tock, tick tock
The sky is cryin'
Can't you see the tears roll down the street?
The sky is cryin'
Can't you see the tears roll down the street?
I've been looking for my baby
And I wonder where can she be
I saw my baby early one morning
She was walking on down the street
I saw my baby early one morning
She was walking on down the street
You know it hurt me, hurt me so bad, yeah
Made my poor heart skip a beat
Help me now
I've got a real, real bad feelin'
That my baby, she don't love me no more
I've got a real, real bad feelin'
That my baby don't love me no more
You know the sky, the sky's been cryin', yeah
(chorus)
Well, the house is a-rocking but don't bother knocking
House is a-rocking but don't bother, come on in
Kick off your shoes, Start losing the blues
This old houe aint got nothing to lose
Seen it all for years
Start spreading the news
We got room onthe floor, Come on, baby, shake something loose
(chorus)
Get them, Reese!
(chorus)
Walking up the street you can hear the sound
Of some bad honkey-tonkers really laying it down
They've seen it all for years, Start spreading the news
We got a room on the floor, come on, baby, shake something loose
(chorus)
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five per cent appear too small?
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, I'll tax your heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet
Taxman
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Don't ask me what I want it for
If you don't want to pay some more
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die
Declare those pennies on your eyes
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for nobody, yes but me
I mean over time, Sundays, holidays
Very superstitious....Writing on the wall
Very superstitious....Ladder's 'bout to fall
Thirteen month old baby....Broke that looking glass
Seven years of bad luck....Good things in the past
When you believe in things that you don't understand
Then you suffer....Superstition ain't the way.
Very superstitious....Wash your face and hands
Rid me of the problem....Get all that you can
Keep me in a daydream....Keep me going strong
You don't want to save me....Sad is my song
When you believe in things that you don't understand
Then you suffer....Superstition ain't the way.
Very superstitious....Nothing more to say
Very superstitious....Devil's on his way
Thirteen month old baby....Broke that looking glass
Seven years of bad luck....Good things in the past
When you believe in things that you don't understand

Manic depression is touching my soul
I know what I want, but I just don't know
How to go about gettin' it
Feeling sweat, feeling
Drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression is catching my soul
Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It's all the same
When it's, when it's over mama
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off
And go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around
In your kinda scene
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey mama look at little sis
Out in the backyard, playin' like this
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey, look at little sister
What about the neighbors, what they gonna say
Stop little sister, gettin' carried away
Hey hey hey, look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey, look at little sister
Shakin' like a tree, rollin' like a log
Shakin' and a rollin' now, that ain't all
Hey hey hey, look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey, look at little sister
Shakin' like a tree, rollin' like a log
Shakin' and a rollin' now, that ain't all
Hey hey hey, look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey, look at little sister
What about the neighbors, what they gonna say
Stop little sister, gettin' carried away
Hey hey hey, look at little sister
Look over here
Look over there
Look all around me everywhere
Well it really doesn't matter
Which way I wanna go
'Cause the night is fallin'
And I'm a long long way from home
I am a long long way from home, yes I am
Listen to this
Listen to that
People tryin' to tell me
Where it's at
But it really doesn't matter
I hear it all the time
And I'm standing at the crossroads
'Bout to move on down the line
About to move on down the line
Well I've been over here
Been over there
Friends all around me everywhere
But it really doesn't matter
Which way I wanna go
I'm a milling miles from nowhere
And that's a long long way from home
And that's a long long way from home
Yeah a million miles from nowhere
And that's a long long way from home
Well now sittin' here so lonely, feelin' oh so blue
My baby's tryin' to mistreat me
And I don't know what to do
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby, I can't live another day
Yeah I've loved her for such a long time, to end it all this way
Sittin' here so lonely, tears keep fallin' just like rain
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby, I can't live another day
Yeah you know I love you baby, I'll do anything for you
But when we start to fightin', I just get these same old blues
So I'm cryin'
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby, I can't live another day
Yeah now when I first met you baby, at a dance and we did fine
Now we're together and yeah it's a total waste of time
So I'm cryin
Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby, I can't live another day
Well I guess it's just my own fault, the truth I cannot hide
But if I ever get her back again, I'll stay right by her side
I won't be cryin'
I'll stay happy that a way
Oh now baby tell me how have you been?
We all have missed you and the way you grin
The day is necessary every now and then
For souls to move on givin' life back again and again
Fly on, fly on, fly on my friend
Go on live again, love again
Day after day, night after night
Sittin' here singin' every minute as the years go passing by, by, by, by
Long look in the mirror we've come face to face
Wishin' all the love we took for granted love we have today
Life without you all the love you passed my way
The angels have waited for so long now they have their way
Woo wee baby I declare you sure look fine
Woo wee baby I declare you sure look fine
A girl like you has made a many man change his mind
Baby when you walk you know you shake like a willow tree
Baby when you walk you know you shake like a willow tree
A girl like you would just love to make a fool of me
Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Let me love you little darlin'
Let me love you baby
Let me love you darlin' 'til your good love drives me crazy
Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Let me love you little darlin'
Let me love you baby
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Didn't hear my Daddy's voice, and I almost end up dead
Take ol' Glannon Road, you don't have to go that way
Take ol' Glannon Road, you don't have to go that way
Didn't hear my Daddy's voice, and that's where I went astray
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Didn't hear my Daddy's voice, and I almost end up dead
Go right straight to school, son, don't be labeled as a fool
Go right straight to school, son, don't be labeled as a fool
But fall in the crowd, that meant one dip in the pool
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Didn't hear my Daddy's voice, and I almost end up dead
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
Don't stop by the creek, son, that's what my Daddy said
