If you can truthfully say that
You've been true just one day
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
And if you can look into my eyes
One time without telling lies
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
Why do I keep loving you after all
The things you do
And just one time come into my arms
And be glad that you're in my arms
That will make one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
Why do I keep lovin' you...

If you can truthfully say
That you've been true just one day
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
And if you can look into my eyes
One time without telling lies
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
Why do I keep lovin' you
After all the things you do?
And just one time
Come into my arms
And be glad that you're in my arms
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row
Why do I keep lovin' you
After all the things you do?
And just one time
Come into my arms
And be glad that you're in my arms
Well that makes one in a row

(Lyrics Dave Music Dave/Danny)
No one seems to care anymore
(as) I wander through this night all alone
No one feels the pain I have inside
Looking at this world through my eyes
No one really cares where I go
Searching to feel warmth forever more
The wheels of life they turn without me
Now you are gone... eternally
No...
Don't leave me here
The dream carries (me) on
Inside
I know...
Its not too late
Lost moments blown away
Tonight
Chorus.
Mankind, with your heresy
Can't you see that this is killing me
There's no one in this life
To be here with me at my side

A step in the right direction, a stitch in time saves nine
To me you are perfection, and the love you saved was mine.
When I think of all the girls that I've ever kissed
And the ones that I'd wished I could know,
It's a real short list with just one name, you're one in a row.
You're a class by yourself
You're the state of the art
You're alone on the shelf
You're the top of the chart
You're the singular case
You're the queen of the place
You're the star of the show
You're one in a row
There's one chance in a million, there's one sun up in the sky.
I'm glad you were willin', and here's the reason why.
When I think of all the girls that I've ever kissed
And the ones that I'd wished I could know,
It's a real short list with just one name, you're one in a row.
You're the unrivalled champ
You're the boss of the camp
You're the mavin of charm
You're a shot in the arm
You're alone in the bunch
You're a dark horse hunch
You're a heavy-weight blow

Marie Kelly must die
Her accusations we deny
Free masons are involved
Jack the Ripper's mystery is solved
A young Annie Crook has marriage plans
A certain prince is the man
The Royal House does not approve
A catholic and a local too
Secretly she was put away
A mental hospital and there to stay
There it didn't matter what she'd say
They wouldn't listen anyway
Marie Kelly you were truly one of a kind
Blackmailing the Royal House, you freely spoke your mind
In doing what you did you were an enemy of the State
Five dead prostitutes a waste of time to investigate
Marie Kelly you just wanted your friend to be free
That it meant you'd lose your life, that you could not see
We fear death and darkness my friend
that's why we need a legend
Marie Kelly did die

Tonight I'll be drinkin' tequila
And toasting to old Mexico
Listening to Waylon and Willie
And feeding the fire down below
It's only been twenty-four hours
Since my baby walked out on me
If everything's right I will make it tonight
'Cause I've got a sure remedy
From sunup to sundown
I'll paint this one-horse town
I don't give a damn if anyone knows
I'll party on till the heartache is gone
Tonight makes it one in a row
I'm not concerned with tomorrow
It's gonna be more of the same
Dancin' on top of the tables
Till I can't remember her name
Hey bartender break out the bottle
I don't need no salt or no lime
Just keep 'em comin' till my body's numb
She's no longer here on my mind
From sunup to sundown
I'll paint this one-horse town
I don't give a damn if anyone knows
I'll party on till the heartache is gone
Tonight makes it one in a row
From sunup to sundown
I'll paint this one-horse town
I don't give a damn if anyone knows
I'll party on till the heartache is gone
Tonight makes it one in a row
Tonight makes it one in a row
Tonight makes it one in a row

Sit up screaming at the break of dawn
Pull out your hair, biting your tongue
Its getting you nowhere
You're fed up, leaving at the first chance
Never look back, never a last glance
And you have no interest there
Well its been hard, I know
Its just the way things sometime go
All you have to do
Is learn to let it go
I have no worries
I'm in no hurry here
I've been through this before
And I have no fear
I have no worries
When things go blurry now
Its just the world spinning
Round
No time wasted, smile on your face
Gotta get out, out of this place
And I'll lend a helping hand
Cause we got it now, we got it good
We got the beat, but misunderstood
And they just don't understand
Its a long hard road
Its the art of letting go
Its the ride
Cause we're never gonna know
I have no worries
I'm in no hurry here
I've been through this before
And I have no fear
I have no worries
When things go blurry now
Its just the world spinning
Round
Things can be extraordinary if you try
Give them time to grow
Its a long hard road
Its ebb and flow
Its an art of the
Art of letting go
I have no worries
I'm in no hurry here
I've been through this before
And I have no fear
I have no worries
(I have no worries)
When things go blurry now
Its just the world spinning
Round
(I have no worries)
Its just the world spinning

They say that we ain't got the style, we ain't got the class
We ain't got the tunes that's goin' to put us on the map
And I'm a phony in disguise, tryin' to make the radio
I'm an anti-social anarchist who sounds like so and so
They say I'm just a stupid kid, just a crazy radical
Rock and roll is dead, I probably should've stayed in school
Another generation X who somehow slipped up through the crack
Oh, they'd love to see me fall but I'm already on my back
So it goes in one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit but you know I never bother
It goes to one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit, they can kiss the back of my hand
Now I know I'm not a saint, I been a sinner all my life
I ain't tryin' to hide my flaws, I'd rather keep them in the light
They wanna criticize, scrutinize, cast another stone
Burn me at the stake and sit and watch it from the throne
They say the devil is my pal, I do a lotta drugs
The crowd will only like me if they're really fuckin' drunk
They think they know my thoughts, but they don't know the least
If they listened to the words they'd find the message that's beneath
But it goes in one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit even though they never bother
It goes in one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit, they can kiss the back of my hand
You hear that? You hear what's comin'?
Oh, you better run for the hills 'cause we're comin' to your town
And we're gonna burn that motherfucker down
Here's the moral to the story, we don't do it for the glory
We don't do it for the money, we don't do it for the things
So all the critics who despise us go ahead and criticize us
It's your charity that drives us, adds the fire to our flames
And it goes in one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit but you know I never bother
It goes in one ear, and right out the other
I'm only playin' music 'cause you know I fuckin' love it
It goes in one ear and right out the other
People talkin' shit but you know I never bother
It goes in one ear, and right out the other

John Henry
John Henry was a li'l baby, uh-huh,
Sittin' on his mama's knee, oh, yeah,
Said: "De Big Bend Tunnel on de C & O road
Gonna cause de death of me,
Lawd, Lawd. Gonna cause de death of me.
John Henry, he had a woman,
Her name was Mary Magdalene,
She would go to de tunnel and sing for John,
Jes' to hear John Henry's hammer ring, Lawd, Lawd, jes'
to hear
John Henry's hammer ring.
John Henry had a li'l woman,
Her name was Lucy Ann,
John Henry took sick an' had to go to bed,
Lucy Ann drove steel like a man,
Lawd, Lawd, Lucy Ann drove steel like a man.
Cap'n says to John Henry,
Gonna bring me a steam drill 'round,
Gonna take dat steam drill out on de job, Gonna whop
dat steel on
down, Lawd, Lawd, gonna whop dat steel on down.
john Henry tol' his cap'n,
Lightnin' was in his eye;
Cap'n, bet yo' las' red cent on me,
Fo' I'll beat it to de bottom or I'll die,
Lawd, Lawd, I'll beat
it to de bottom or I'll die."
Sun shine hot an' burnin',
Wer'n't no breeze a-tall,
Sweat ran down like water down a hill,
Dat day John Henry let his hammer fall,
Lawd, Lawd, dat day John Henry let his hammer fall.
John Henry went to de tunnel,
An' dey put him in de lead to drive,
De rock so tall an' John Henry so small,
Dat he lied down his hammer an' he cried,
Lawd, Lawd, dat he lied down his hammer an' he cried.
John Henry started out on de right hand,
De steam drill started on de lef'---
"Before I 'd let dis steam drill beat me down,
I'd hammer my fool self to death,
Lawd, Lawd, I'd hammer my fool self to death."
White man tol' John Henry,
"Nigger, damn yo' soul,
You might beat dis steam an' dr;ll of mine,
When de rocks in dis mountain turn to gol',
Lawd, Lawd, when de rocks in dis mountain turn to gol'.
john Henry said to his shaker,
"Nigger, why don' you sing?
I'm throwin' twelve poun's from my hips on down,
Jes' listen to de col' steel ring,
Lawd, Lawd, jes' listen to de col' steel ring."
Oh, de captain said to John Henry,
"I b'lieve this mountain's sinkin' in,
John Henry said to his captain, oh my!
"Ain' nothin' but my hammer suckin' win',
Lawd, Lawd, ain' nothln' but my hammer suckin' win."
John Henry tol' his shaker,
Shaker, you better pray,
For if I miss dis six-foot steel,
Tomorrow'll be yo' buryin' day,
Lawd, Lawd, tomorrow'll be yo' buryin' day."
John Henry tol' his captain,
"Looka yonder what l see ---
Yo' drill's done broke an' yo' hole's done choke,
An' you cain' drive steel like me,
Lawd, Lawd, an' you cain' drive steel like me."
De man dat invented de steam drill,
Thought he was mighty fine.
John Henry drove his fifteen feet,
An' de steam drill only made nine,
Lawd, Lawd, an' de steam drill only made nine.
De hammer dat John Henry swung',
It weighed over nine pound ;
He broke a rib in his lef'-han' side,
An' his intrels fell on de groun',
Lawd, Lawd, an' his intrels fell on de groun'.
John Henry was hammerin' on de mountain,
An' his hammer was strikin' fire,
He drove so hard till he broke his pore heart,
An' he lied down his hammer an' he died,
Lawd, Lawd, he lied doWn his hammer an' he died.
All de womens in de wes',
When dey heared of John Henry's death,
Stood in de rain, flagged de eas'-boun' train,
Goin' where John Henry fell dead,
Lawd, Lawd, goin' where John Henry fell dead.
John Henry's lil mother,
She was all dressed in red,
She jumped in bed, covered up her head,
Said she didn' know her son was dead,
Lawd, Lawd, didn' know her son was dead.
John Henry had a pretty lil woman,
An' de dress she wo' was blue,
An' de las' wards she said to him:
"John Henry, I've been true to you,
Lawd, Lawd, John Henry I've been true to you."
"Oh, who's gonna shoe yo' lil feetses,
An' who's gonna glub yo' han's,
An' who'g gonna kiss yo' rosy, rosy lips,
An' who's gonna be yo' man,
Lawd, Lawd, an' who's gonna be yo' man?"
Dey took John Henry to de graveyard,
An' dey buried him in de san',
An' every locomotive come roarin' by,
Says, "Dere lays a steel-drivin' man,

is the song worth singing
when there's no one listening?
you know the words
you know they hurt
but you know they're right
when you got the urge
you thought you were the first
but you will never be first at anything
are your ears still ringing?
are the wounds still stinging?
you know the words
you know every verse
you know what's right
that's what makes this worse
so fucking absurd

We are the ones that fight for freedom
United we stand
We walk through hell for you
And we are (we are) the protectors
Risking everything we have
Who will you look to when everything you know
Starts to crumble?
Enough is enough
Clinging to your memories
Will you dream of me or will I be forgotten?
Remember me
And when the struggle and the sacrifice
Becomes too great to bare
That's when I look to the sky to discover who I am
And the reasons why I chose to let it all go
But I didn't know that the cost would be so great
Do I leave it all behind and forget what I know?
Will I ever learn not turn to my back on the face of evil?
I only hope that someone's watching over me
As I look my demons in the eyes, I wonder why I'm still here
We are the ones that fight for freedom
United we stand
We walk through hell for you
And we are (we are) the protectors
Risking everything we have
Who will you look to when everything you know
Starts to crumble?
Never forget, we will never forget
Remember
Those who sacrificed their lives
And honor – the legacy they left behind
Cherish their memories
Deliverance from this nightmare
We command you our brothers
Have courage and be strong
Awaiting your return for far too long

John Henry had a little woman
And the dress she wore was red
She walked down the track,
She never looked back
I'm going where John Henry fell dead
I'm going where John Henry fell dead
John Henry had another woman
And her name was Polly Anne
John Henry was taken sick
And he had to go to bed
Polly Anne drove steel like a man
Polly Anne drove steel like a man
John Henry told his little woman
Honey fix my supper soon
I got ninety-nine miles
Of track I wanna line back
I'm gonna line 'em by the light of the moon
I'm gonna line 'em by the light of the moon
John Henry said to his captain
You know a man ain't nothin' but a man
I'm bettin' right now you wont beat me down
I'm gonna die with my hammer in my hand
I'm gonna die with my hammer in my hand
John Henry hammered in the mountain
Until his hammer caught on fire
The last word's I heard that the poor boy said
Give me a cool drink of water before I die
Give me a cool drink of water before I die
Give me a cool drink of water before I die
Give me a cool drink of water before I die
Give me a cool drink of water before I die

I woke up without that empty feeling
And it stayed away all afternoon
Had dinner with some of my old friends this evening
And never once mentioned you
And today, all day
Not a tear rolled down my face
I didnt break, I was strong
And tonight, all night
I didnt call you or stop by
I just held on and let your memory go
And today, that makes one in a row
When they all said lets go out dancin'
Didnt fight it, I just went along
For the first time
I slow danced when somebody asked me
And it didnt feel quite so wrong
And today, all day
Not a tear rolled down my face
I didnt break, I was strong
And tonight, all night
I didnt call you or stop by
I just held on and let your memory go
And today, that makes one in a row
And tonight, all night
I didnt dream about old times
I just held on and let your memory go

Yeah!
Johnny told his old Captain
'Man, a-when you go downtown
Bring me back the nine pounds hammer'
I got to drive this steel on down
I got to drive this steel on down
You see, Johnny's hammer
Hit the mighty boiler
The hammer caught on fire
Now, the last word I heard
The poor boy say
'I want a cool drink a-water 'fore I die'
'Yeah, a cool drink a-water 'fore I die'
Yeah, Johnny's wife
She heard that Johnny was dead
And she couldn't have stayed in bed
Oh, now Monday mornin'
Caught the eastbound train
She said, I'm g'wine where my man fell dead
'Yeah! I'm goin' where my man fell dead'
('Look out!')
(harmonica & instrumental)
Woo-ha! Woo-ha! Woo!
Woo! Woo!
(Woo! Lord, have mercy, too)
(Ease your mind)
(Yeah!)
Johnny's wife, she wore
A brand new dress (say)
And it was trimmed in blue
(Pretty thing)
Yeah, the last were the words
Said to him, oh Lord, now
'Honey, I been good to you'
'Yeah, honey I been good to you'
Well, they carried Little John
To the graveyard (boys, listen)
They looked at him good and long
Now, the last were the words
If you hear me, oh Lord
'Oh my husband, he is dead and gone'
That's what she said
She said, 'My husband, he is dead and gone'
'Yeah, my husband he is dead and gone'
Yeah, when John Henry was a baby
You could hold him in the paddles of your hand
When everytime they'd rock him, cried
(They say 'He sho' gonna be a little man')
('Yeah, he sho' gon' be a little man')
Yeah, who gonna buy yo' pretty shoes then?
And who gonna roll yo' cheek?
FADES-
She said, 'My daddy gonna buy my pretty lil'
And John Henry gonna roll my cheek
And John Henry gonna roll my cheek
(That what it said)
A-John Henry gonna roll my cheek.

When John Henry was a little baby boy, sitting on his papa's knee
Well, he picked up his hammer and a little piece of steel, said
"Hammers gonna be the death of me, Lord, Lord" (repeat 4 times)
captain
said to John Henry, "I'm gonna bring that steam drill around
I'm gonna bring that steam drill out on the job
I'm gonna whip that steel on down, Lord, Lord" (repeat 4 times)
John Henry told his captain, "Lord, a man ain't nothing but a man
But before I'd let your steam drill beat me down,
I'd die with a hammer in my hand, Lord, Lord" (repeat 4 times)
John Henry said to his shaker, "Shaker, why don't you sing?
Because I'm swinging thirty pounds from my hips on down,
just to listen to that cold steel ring, Lord, Lord" (repeat 4 times)
Now the captain said to John Henry, "I believe that mountain's caving in"
John Henry said right back to the captain,
"Ain't nothing but my hammer sucking wind, Lord, Lord" (repeat 4 times)
Now the man that invented the steam drill, he thought he was mighty fine
But John Henry drove fifteen feet,
the steam drill only made nine, Lord, Lord (repeat 4 times)
John Henry hammered in the mountains, his hammer was striking fire
But he worked so hard, it broke his poor, poor heart,

john henry when he was a babysittin on his momma's knee
picked up a hammer in his little right hand and said
this hammer'll be the death of me
john got him a job as a steel driving man
no one can drive like he can
he worked his whole life as hard as he can he was
born to be a steel driving man
the capatin said john henry, boy, you think you're pretty
mean
give me a dozen more swings or i'll replace you with a
machine
john henry said captain, man ain't but a man
i've done give you all i got why don't you bring that
steam drill on it
