Gonna tell this story about.....
Give me the bass drum
When I was a little boy, I didn't know right from wrong
I was young and innocent, It didn't last for long
I went out to Germany -Reeperbahn and all that
Aged five years in thirteen weeks, Now there ain't no turnin' back
Ooh, it ain't, ain't a bad world
Ain't bad all the time
No one will give you no gaurantees
That you gonna like what you find
Can't forget the things you know, Can't go back in time
Live a good life, gain experience - I'm layin' it on the line
No, I don't claim I seen everything - But, I've had my share
I don't understand everything, But I know it's there
Ooh, it ain't, ain't a bad world
Ain't bad all the time
No one will give you no gaurantees
That you gonna like what you find
This world that I find
Oh no, it ain't a bad world
This world that I find
I'm gonna give you one more chance
I'll play the music, you just dance
I'm gonna give you what I got
I'll play the music, good and hot
You just got to get it
I'm gonna blow away your blues
I'll put the rhythm in your shoes
I'm gonna make it loud and clear
I'll blow the music in your ear
You just got to get it
I'm gonna give you one more chance
I'll play the music, you just dance
I'm gonna give you what I got
I'll play the music, good and hot
You just got to get it
I'm gonna give you one more chance
I'll play the music, you just dance
I'm gonna blow away your blues
I'll put the rhythm in your shoes
You just got to get it......ooooh....oh, yeah
Glad to see you made it to the show tonight,
know you like your rock and roll.
Rhythm gonna get 'cha make you feel alright,
move it to your very soul.
You're workin' hard, it's time to play, let your soul run free.
Music gonna get 'cha like the jungle drums,
won't you rock 'n roll with me ?
It's a burnin' fever, that's burnin' up my soul,
Shake it up ! Let's shake it up !
When I feel like workin' on some rock 'n roll,
sweat drippin' off of my face.
Get the fire burnin', shovel on some coal,
try to win the human race.
I see your body movin', I can feel the heat.
Say Lord, how I love that rock and roll,
feel it from my head to my feet.
It's a burnin' fever, that's burnin' up my soul,
Shake it up ! Let's shake it up ! Ow !
It's a burnin' fever, it's burnin' in my soul,
Ain't no reason, ain't no rhyme
Should be people doing time
Dumping stuff in our sea, they're gonna kill you and me
Now I'm complaining, I'm pissed off
Where you gonna put this nuclear stuff
C.F.C. - P.C.P., what's that stuff
At the bottom of the sea
Use that power - powerfull stuff
Hot house flowers, burning out
Ozone gone, another drought
Too much fat and all those sweets
Don't compare with your nuclear treats
Tote that barge, lift that bail
Don't go down that nuclear trail
You can't trust the air and breath
You better watch out for that Chernobyl cheese
My work is all done, I'm feeling just fine
I'm ready to love you, now the night is mine
Get into the action, it's Saturday night
I'm ready to rock you - light the dynamite
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
My worries and cares, just throw them away
My work is all over, now it's time to play
I feel like a king, I'm as high as a kite
I'm ready to love you - now the time is right
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Now I'm ready to go, I'm feeling so fine
I'm ready for action, now tonight is mine
My worries are over, it's a saturday night
I'm ready to rock you - light the dynamite
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
We're going to have a party back at my place
Party! Let's go!
You told me that you'd never leave me
You said you'd never say good-bye
You told me that you'd never hurt me
You told me that you'd never lie
Glad you love me - see who cares if I die !
You told me that you'd always love me
You told me that you'd never cheat
You told me that you'd never hurt me
You said you'd spend your life with me
So much sugar - now it doesn't taste so sweet !
You told me that you really loved me
You say you're gonna stand by me
You told me that you'd always love me
You said you'd never part with me
So much talkin' - then you walk right over me !
You told me that you'd never leave me
You told me that you really knew
You told me that you'd never hurt me
You told me that your love was true
Won't you try to be righteous, try to live right
Don't you be swayed by what they tell you - oh, oh
Won't you try to be strong, try to be strong
Don't you believe you could fall
There's too much burden - oh, oh
So much lovin' to know
Oooo, and your mind will have this high
So much deep inside you, so much more to find
I've been so long, on the highway with everything going my way
My head wasn't ready for you truckin' down the other way
I've been so long, on this freeway - with everybody giving me leeway
I just wasn't ready for you truckin' down the other way
Head on collision says, you got the nerve –and there’s no mistake !
My split decision said, it's too late now - to hit the brakes
Whoa, I've been so long on the byway - with everything going my way
Well I just wasn't ready for you truckin' down the other way
Better believe me when I say, that I can't run no more !
That little trucker got me coming' back for more and more and
More, more, more !
I've been so long, on the highway - with everything going my way
I just wasn't ready for you truckin' down the other way
I've been so long, on the freeway - with everybody giving me Lee way,
World is spinnin' faster
I can take the pace
Try and be your master
And that's the human race
I don't want to fight no more,
I'll just lay down on the floor
I don't wanna sleep my life away,
You can win or lose it anyway
I won't play the games,
You want to play no more
Spinnin', spinnin', spinnin'
It seems my life is just a dream
Energy flow just like a dream
To search and think just where it runs
And I will take it as it comes
World is spinnin' faster
It's changin' far to fast
Try to be your master
Well then, could it last
I don't want to fight no more,
I'll just lay down on the floor
I don't wanna sleep my life away,
I just wanna take what comes my way
I don't need a rope beside me anymore
Spinnin', spinnin', spinnin'
Now I must search to find the clue
And in God's deepness I half-knew
And now I need not search no more
Cause I can go to any door
Well I bought you a house and a diamond brush

Wake up, Moma, chase my blues away
I said, wake up Moma, take my blues away
It's 2 o'clock in the morning
And I've had a busy day
I said wake up baby, I need a little company
Wake up baby, just need some company
The blues got me so bad, I'm in misery
I said, wake up Moma
Wake up baby, before the night is gone

Once I was a man who's on the move (oh yeah)

all this rushing about is gonna drive a man insane (drive me insane now)
Once I was a man who's on the move (oh yeah)

Once I was a man who's on the move (oh yeah)
nowadays when I can I want to to groove (oh yeah)
so if you're a fast train, cocaine, you will fry your brain
The door was open, it was open wide
I took a step, I took a step inside
And it was hot, it was hotter than hell
I was looking in her face, but how was I to tell ?
The price is right, you stay all night
You'll be my lover, you got yourself another
Too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover, too late
Well it was dark, it was dark as night
But there were signs and I knew I was right
She was selling love and affection
I made a move to make the right connection
I was sold, she's double gold
I'll be your lover, you got yourself another
Too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover

The price is right, you stay all night
You'll be my lover, you got yourself another
Too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover
Too late, too late to run for cover, too late
She got me hooked, it was too late to say "no"
Don't turn your back boy 'cause she won't let go
There's no mistake, you're caught in a trap
I'm in too deep now, there's no turning back
So don't be sad, it ain't so bad
You got your lover, there ain't no other
Time to meditate
Feel like I want to, get off the bus
Remember what your best friend said
Ride the bus, ride the bus
Don't get off till it stops
Time to meditate
Feel like I want to, get off the bus
Remember what you told yourself
Don't make it worse, flow through your life
Don't make changes
If then, change that sails through
Time to meditate
Ride the bus, keep on ridin'
Ride the bus
Don't get off till it stops
C'mon and ride the bus
Keep on ridin' the bus
C'mon and ride the bus
Ahh, come on.......

And it keeps on callin' me into the night
Outside my window, somethin' callin' me, yeah

Someone to love me, let me ease my worried mind, yeah
There's a star in the night and it's shinin' so bright
I could swear it was callin' to me
And the hope in my heart that is broken apart
And the pain for a moment is free
Oh, outside my window there's a light shinin' bright
And it keeps on callin' me into the night
Outside my window, somethin' callin' me, yeah

Now you might think I'm crazy, 'cause of all the things I do
I'd rob steal kill somebody, just to get back home to you
I'll climb the highest mountain, swim the deepest sea
Do anything you want me to, if you'll remember me
Remember me when I'm dead and gone, remember me
Remember me when I'm dead and gone, remememember
Now if you need some loving, before I am deceased
Well I don't own this body Babe, it's only out on lease

Now life don't come too easy, so live it while you may
If they ask you about the future, just turn around and say
Remember me when I'm dead and gone, remember me
I never really understood religion
Except it seems a good excuse to kill.
I never really could make a decision,
I don't suppose I ever really will.
I can't relate to any power structure
Where ego is the driving energy;
I let mine go a long, long time ago, now,
When I decided that I would be free.
The only thing I understand is living;
The biggest sacrifice to make is death.
And once you're dead there's nothing left for giving,
So much trouble in the world
I can't watch or read the news
It brings me down so bad baby
When I read the daily blues
So much heartache in the world
All the sickness and the war
Keep my head down in the sand
'Cause I just can't take no more
I'm talking 'bout trouble
Too many reasons for the blues
I'm talking trouble
It's time we had some better news
So much fighting in the world
God and country leads to war
They say we fight for peace
But I just can't take no more
So much killing in the world
Terrorist victims by the score
So much trouble in the world, baby
But I just can't take no more
I'm talking 'bout trouble
Too many reasons for the blues
I'm talking trouble
It's time we had some better news
I'm talking 'bout trouble
Too many reasons for the blues
I'm talking trouble

I've been working day and night, tryin' to make it all come right
I've been giving it my best, ain't no time to take a rest
Just an ordinary man, and I keep doing what I can
Nobody can say I'm doing wrong - honey, I'm just trying to get a long
Just an ordinary man,
Just an ordinary man
I've been keeping things in line, I've been using all my time
Ain't no time for fooling 'round, 'cause there's too much going down
Well, the money's getting thin - I got to keep it coming in
I'm an ordinary man and I'm doing what I can
Got to keep on pushing,
Lord, I'm just an ordinary man
I've been working day and night, tryin' to make it all come right
I've been giving it my best, ain't no time to take a rest
Just an ordinary man, and I keep doing what I can
Nobody can say I'm doing wrong - honey, I'm just trying to get a long
Just an ordinary man, Just an ordinary man
I'm on the road to freedom
On the road to love
Yonder can you see them
Who they're thinking of
I met a rich man on the road, he told me where to go
To get my hands upon some gold, but still I answered no
Cause freedom waits for me ahead, your gold will slow me down
I smiled as I walked on my way, and left him with a frown
I met an old man on the road, his eyes were clear and wise
Can you direct me on my way, to where the answer lies
I'm looking for the road to freedom so I can be free
He said keep thinking as you walk, and one day you will see
I'm on the road to freedom, on the road to truth
Yonder can you see them wasting precious youth
I thought as I walked down the road, of what the man had said
It seems to me that what he meant is freedom's in your head
The road I walk along is time, it's measured out in hours
And now I need not rush along, I stop to see the flowers.
Last time I saw her, there was a tear in her eye
Her voice gave a little quaver, when she tryed to say good bye
Then the days grew dim, and the nights turned cold
My mind was as black as coal
She just walked back into my life, and brought a smile in my soul
My baby's come back to me - ain't got the blues no more
My baby's come back to me - the blues is out the door
My baby's come back to me - My baby's come back to me
She makes me feel so good
She was thinkin' about the future, she didn't see a light
The sadness of a love, that she didn't feel was right
She had to get away, and work her feelings through
She made the right decision, she knew what she must do
My baby's come back to me - ain't got the blues no more
My baby's come back to me - the blues is out the door
My baby's come back to me - My baby's come back to me
She makes me feel so good - yeah.
My baby's come back to me - ain't got the blues no more
Mmmm.....my baby's come back to me - the blues is out the door
My baby's come back to me - My baby's come back to me
She makes me feel so good
Well I'm sitting here thinking Baby
Wishing I could be with you
When you're sitting looking pretty
There ain't nothing I won't do
When I'm sitting all alone Baby
You're so far away
So I'm thinking 'bout you Baby
And you're moving my blues away
I'm moving the blues, I'm turning it out
I'm taking it down, I'm shaking it out
I've paid all my dues, I've nothing to loose
I'm losing the blues
Well I'm sitting all alone Baby
Wishing I could hold you tight
When I think about you Baby
Everything is gonna be allright
Well I'm sitting here thinking Baby
Wishing I could be with you
When you're sitting looking pretty
There ain't nothing I won't do
I'm moving the blues, I'm turning it down
I'm shaking it up, I'll turn it around
I've done paying dues, I've nothing to loose
Well, I wake up in the mornin' (haa)
When the ding-dong ring (hee)
Walk over to the table
Ya see the same old thing
Nothin' put upon the table
Nothin' in my pan, well
Says anything about it
I get (I'm) in trouble with the man
Let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever-lovin' light on me
If ya ever go to Houston
Ya better walk right
You better not stagger
And you better not fight
Or the sheriff gon' arrest you
Lord, an' carry you down
Then if the jury find you guilty
You're penitentiary bound
Well, let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever-lovin' light on me
Well, let the midnight special
Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever-lovin' light on me

Umbrella on her shoulder (woo)
Piece a paper in her hand-a

To release her man

Shine a light on me
Let the midnight special
Shine an ever-lovin' light on me
(Me, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Let the midnight special (ooo)

Let the sky fall, let the sea sink;
Let the earth shake, let the sun blink.
Let the universe go spinning free,
If my darlin' ever leaves me.
Let the air freeze, let the moon cry;
Let the stars go out, let the world die.
Let my eyes go blind, let the grass turn blue,
If I ever think of leavin' you.
Let our love be, with our minds free;
Let our hearts beat, let our eyes see.
Let the universe share our love,
Let the sea burn down - to the underwater mountains
Where my love lies waiting - for the virgin of the soul
Let the clouds turn black - the roads turn to cinder
Where underwater fountains - strip the sheen from your soul
All the greed in the world - all this fear and misery
Can I change in my heart - while I know they're still here
I will fight to my death - I will die for my rights
For the love of my soul - there will be no dark night
Let the sky turn red - let the rain fall like blood
I'll cry for the stars - I'll be understood
Let the sky turn red - let the rain fall like blood
I'll cry for the stars - I'll be understood
Let the sea burn down - to the underwater mountains
Where my love lies waiting - for the virgin of the soul
Let the clouds turn black - the roads fill with cinder
Where underwater fountains - strip the sheen from your soul
Let the sky turn red - let the rain fall like blood
Rock on, baby........
Hey baby, let it rock
Hey mama, c'mon and rock
Let it rock, pretty mama
She rocks all night long
Hey baby, let it rock

Jenny Jenny won't you please come home
I'm thinking 'bout you Baby 'cause I'm all alone
Won't you come back Baby 'fore it gets too late
I need your loving and I just can't wait
Ain't had no loving since I don't know when
Oooh Jenny Jenny please come back again
Jenny Jenny won't you please come back
Your love is bigger than a Cadillac
I tried to call you but I can't get through
Won't you tell me baby what you're trying to do
I'm tired of waiting here all alone
Oooh Jenny Jenny won't you please come home
Every night I call your name
Ooh Jenny Jenny I'm the one to blame
I still love you Baby when I'm all alone
Ooh Jenny Jenny, Jenny won't you please come home

Won't you come back Baby been away too long
I thought you loved me but I'm not too sure
Won't you tell me Baby what you leave me for
Come back Baby 'cause I'm all alone
Ooh Jenny Jenny won't you please come home
Lonely days lonely nights
Here without you, well I don't feel right
Need your love Babe won't you please just phone
Ooh Jenny Jenny, Jenny won't you please come home
Jenny Jenny won't you please come back
Your love is bigger than a Cadillac
I tried to call you but I can't get through
Won't you tell me baby what you're trying to do
I'm tired of waiting here all alone
There ain't nothin' I can say - that'll change the world today
I wouldn't say it anyway - cause it's all right now
Don't watch the TV news - never read the daily blues
Keep truckin' and payin' my dues - cause it's all right now
Well it's all right - it's all right now
Well it's all right - it's all right now
Don't know and I never will - politicians make me ill
Might as well let the world hang still - cause it's all right now
There's no need to scream and shout - just live it, without a doubt
World's troubles, can leave me out - cause it's all right now
Well it's all right - Well it's all...........all right now
Don't need a society - just prove that I am free
Won't you smile, and leave me be - cause it's all right now
Don't worry about my soul - don't need to have a goal
Just let it, let it roll - Well it's all right now
Well it's all right - it's all right now
Well it's all right - it's all right now
When you call me your lover, It's alright
Won't let them no I'm your man
You can take any other, It's alright
Just let him know, We're in love
A fool that can't love her
A fool that can't get love
A fool that loves you
Images shifting - Nothing has changed
Just rearranged
My life is driftin' - Believe that it's waste
I see your face callin' me home
Callin' me home
Make me aware, know that you care
When you call me your lover, It's alright
Won't let them no how I feel
You can take any other, It's alright
Won't let it show how I feel
Show how it feels, lord lord lord
Wanta show how it feels, oh oh
Just tryin' to show how it feels
Images shifting, Nothin' is real
Just how I feel
My life is driftin, Must I efface
Driftin' in haste - Is callin' me home
Call-callin' me home
