I AIN'T GOT THE BLUES
Well, I'm a little light-headed
But my body feels the same
And it feels like fallin' on down
And find another name
But the sand in my shoes
May trickle to my brain
Well, I ain't got the blues
But something more tame
Oh yeah, something more tame
Oh yeah, something more tame.
Well the sound of the drums
Is pounding in my head
Like ten thousand dancers
With bodies full of lead
And I feel like a bull
With an eye-full of red
Well, I ain't got the blues
But something better bred
Oh yeah, something better bred
Oh yeah, something better bred.
If tomorrow sees another
Kind of farm I know
Well, the people and the soldiers
And the gypsies groan
It would be like a wonder
And I cannot let it go
Well, I ain't got the blues
But something more slow
Oh yeah, something more slow
Oh yeah, something more slow.
But the people in the cities
And the other ones too
Ain't got too many wonders
That they're not tied to
And I can't help but feeling
As I'm wearing straight through
Well, I ain't got the blues
But something more true
Oh yeah, something more true
Oh yeah, something more true.
IF YOU GOT LOVE
When you walk in a room
You hold your head up high
You talk to people eye to eye
There's nothing to hide
You're feeling so complete inside
Your heart feels so complete inside
'Cause you got love.If you got love
You know you got it
If you got love
Can't live without it
If you got love
The world you're walking in
Is at your commandYou're staring in the face of scorn
You know your spirit can't be torn
You're living like a satellite
Maintain your distance through the night
You know that something isn't right
Your heart tells you it's just not right
'Cause you got love.If you got loveYou know you got it
If you got love
Can't live without it
If you got love
The world you're walking in
Is at your command.If you got love
The world you're walking in
Is at your command
If you got love
To share
If you got love
To share.
I’M GOIN’ ON A DOWNHILL SLIDE
Well, I'm goin', I'm goin'
Goin' on a downhill slide.
I'm goin', I'm goin'
Goin' on a downhill slide.
Things feel so easy
I'm never gonna change my mind.
I'm goin', I'm goin', I'm goin'.
Well, ride me babe
Hang on to my hat
Ride me babe
Hang on to my hat
I'll howl like a wolf
Scream like an alley cat.
I'm goin', I'm goin', I'm goin'.
Don't wanna change my mind.
Don't wanna reel it in.
Don't wanna stop this slidin' honey
That's the shape I'm in.
I'm goin', I'm goin' on a downhill slide.
Things feels so easy
I'm never gonna change my mind.
I'm goin', I'm goin', I'm goin'.
Goin', goin', goin', goin', goin'.
I'm goin' on a downhill slide.
Watch me now, watch me now.
Goin', goin', goin', goin', goin'.
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
The saddest words
Of tongue or pen
Are these four words
It might have been
We had big dreams
We made big plans
How could they slip
Right through our hands
Instead of tearing
Our romance to pieces
Why don't we try
To right what we've done wrong
It's not too late
To set things straight
Let's never say
It might have been
Instead of tearing
Our romance to pieces
Why don't we try
To right what we've done wrong
It's not too late
To set things straight
Let's never say
It might have been
It might have been
IT’S A CRIME OF THE HEART
When I think about love
Honey, you always come across my mind
Is it the way that you hold me
Or the way that you told me love is blind
Well, it's a crime of the heart
These things I'm thinking to myself
But I can't forget you, babe
Just can't seem to think of nothing else.
Got a woman at home
A family to feed
Three fine children
They think the Lord of me
Now I'm standing at the crossroads
Looking for a sign of true love.
Well, I heard that song
Says girls just wanna have fun
Well, I guess I bought my ticket, honey
'Cause it feels as if the ride has just begun
Well, there's two kinds of love
One is wrong and one is right
But I can't forget you baby
Can't forget the way you hold me tight.
I got a woman at home
A family to feed
Three fine children
They think the Lord of me
Well, I'm standing at the crossroads
Looking for a sign of true love.
When I think about women
Honey, you always come across my mind
Is it the way that you told me
The way you told me love is blind
Well, it's a crime of the heart
These things I'm thinking to myself now
Can't forget you, babe
Can't forget the way you make me feel.
I got a woman at home
A family to feed
Three fine children
At the crossroads
Looking for a sign of true love.
I WONDER WHY
For the love of man
Who could understand
What goes on
What is right and what is wrong
Why the angels cry
And the heaven's sigh
When a child is born to live
But not like you and I.
Let the angels ring the bells
In the holy hall
May they hear the voice
That calls to them
For the love of man
Who will understand
It's alright
I know it's alright.
Down the dusty road
To the forest church
Let wander there
Let me wonder why
On the ocean wave
In the billowing sky
Let wander there
Let me wonder why.
Let the angels ring the bells
In the holy hall
Let them hear the voice that calls.
For the love of man
Who will understand
It's alright
But I wonder why.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
JOHNNY
Someone wants to blow up the planet
Johnny wants to find out why
Johnny did a show in St. Louis
Love came through the sky.
Oh yeah, they were camped out,
Waiting for the sun to rise
Oh yeah, Johnny sang out
Love into the sky.
Johnny found a place out in Texas
Waiting for him to come
Made himself a reservation
And hope came, in the gun.
Oh yeah, he was flying,
Waiting for the sun to rise
Oh yeah, color by numbers
Waiting for the sun to rise.
Johnny did some time in the army
Johnny did a stint in Vietnam.
Now he can't forget it,
His mind is confused, slipping from his twisted hand.
Oh yeah, he's still back there
With one hand on the gun
Oh yeah, he's still back there
Waiting for the rising sun.
Now Johnny likes to go down the highway
The wind singing in his ears
Right up as most things go whirring by
By day everything looks clear.
Oh yeah, Johnny ride on
Gonna find a special home
Oh yeah, down the highway
Looking for the rising sun.
KANSAS
I feel like I just woke up
from a bad dream
And it's so good to have you
sleeping by my side
Although I'm not so sure
if I even know your name
Hold on, baby, hold on
We can go gliding through the air
Far from the jeers and lies
Yeah you are the one
I'm talkin' to this morning
With your mind so fine
and your friendly body lying
In my bungalow with stucco
With glory and sunset spa
Hold on, baby, hold on
It doesn't matter if you're the one
'Cause we'll know before we're done
LADY WINGSHOT
When you see the golden trigger
Stand before your eyes
By the time you stop to figure
Lady Wingshot flies away.
You are so inviting
And I feel so in tune with you.
Your draw is fast as lightning
My eyes are captured by your moves.
You ride in three-ring splendor
I find I'm rising with the crowd
Too small for you to see me
Although I'm yelling right out loud.
When you see the golden trigger
Stand before your eyes
By the time you stop to figure
Lady Wingshot flies away.
You are so inviting
And I feel so in tune with you.
Your draw is fast as lightning
My eyes are captured by your moves.
My my, Lady Wingshot
Why can't you slow down in a crowd.
Bye bye, Lady Wingshot,
Each blow is ringing true and loud.
LAST OF A DYING BREED
Well I hate to say the farmer was the last of a dying breed
Living off the land and taking what he needs
Don't say much for the future when a family can't survive
I hate to say the farmer was the last of his kind
In the struggle for parity, not one man's voice can sound
Cuz the foundation of the conglomerate is firmly in the ground
Yeah they wanna feed the world, but for power and for greed
Then they'll cut off the supply until they get what they need
Well I dreamed I saw a dustbowl where the farmers used to live
Earth was flying thru the sky, it had nothing left to give
Tractors were burning on the White House lawn
Just woke up one morning and the farmers all were gone
Well I hate to say the farmer was the last of a dying breed
Living off the land and taking what he needs
Don't say much for the future when a family can't survive
I hate to say the farmer was the last of his kind
Don't say much for the future when a family can't survive
I hate to say the farmer was the last of his kind
LEAVIN’ THE TOP 40 BEHIND
Here comes another day
And another
I got so many ills and pills
I'm about to smother
Hit 39, leavin' the top 40 behind
Holdin' on to what I got
I tried to tell myself
It doesn't matter
It's just the time of life
Another rung in the ladder
Each morning I
Look in her sky-blue eyes
The downside of life looks better
That old man standin' on the corner
He should be proud of those lines on his face
'cos either he's been laughin' too much
Or feelin' too much pain
Here comes another day
And another
I sure am glad
I got you for a lover
Hit 39, leavin' the top 40 behind
Holdin' on to what I got
That old man standin' on the corner
He should be proud of those lines on his face
'cos either he's been smilin' too much
Or feelin' too much pain
Here comes another day
And another
I sure am glad
I got you for a lover
Hit 39, I'm leavin' the top 40 behind
Holdin' on to what I got
Hit 39, leavin' the top 40 behind
Holdin' on to what I got
LET IT SHINE
There's a light on over my head, my Lord
There's a light on over my head, my Lord
Let it shine, let it shine
Although it may not be the only one
Let it shine, shine, shine
Although it may not be the only one.
There's a moon roof over my head, my Lord
And my Lincoln is still the best thing built by Ford
Let it roll, let it roll
Although it may not be the only one
Let me ride, ride, ride, ride,
Although I may not be the only one.
I got religion in the airport, my Lord
They caught me waiting on my baggage when I was bored
Let them chant, let them chant
Although they may not be the only one
Let them dance, dance, dance
Although they may not be the only one.
There's a light on over my head, my Lord
There's a light on over my head, let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine
Although it may not be the only one
Let me shine, shine, shine, shine
Although I may not be the only one.
LET YOUR FINGERS DO THE WALKING
In the days of covered wagons
A man had his own way
Whether talkin' to a woman
Or crossing the U.S.A.
No telephones were ringing
No angry words exchanged.
I wish I was back in the saddle now
Riding on the range.
Let your fingers do the walking
Call me up some time
I'm listed under Broken Hearts
Looking for a good time.
I can't reach out and touch you
You're hung up on the line
I'm your disconnected number now
And you're a private line.
Well, I used to be so happy,
When you gave good 'phone.
I could call you up from anywhere
For a little bit of home
But now my heart is aching
After every call
By the way you talk you'd think
You never gave good 'phone at all.
Let your fingers do the walking
Call me up some time
I'm listed under Broken Hearts
Looking for a good time.
I can't reach out and touch you
You're hung up on the line
I'm your disconnected number now
And you're a private line.
Let your fingers do the walking
Call me up some time
I'm listed under Broken Hearts.
Looking for a good time.
I can't reach out and touch you
You're hung up on the line
I'm your disconnected number now
And you're a private line.
LIVE TO RIDE
Live to ride, ride my dream machine
Good conditions sometime are a screen
Running from the daily grime
He was, he was a friend of mine
Gonna take a long, long time
But this thing will fade away
Running from the daily grime
He was, he was a friend of mine.
Live to ride, ride in the lonesome wind
Cross the line, you can't come back again
Never let a dream machine
Gather dust in your garage
Gonna take a long, long time
But this thing will fade away
Running from the daily grime
He was, he was a friend of mine.
Gonna take a long, long time
But this thing will fade away
Running from the daily grime
He was, he was a friend of mine.
Live to ride, ride my dream machine.
LONELY WEEKEND
Come along and say you will,
Be the one to change the meaning
Of the writing on the wall
The lonely politician is lying in the hall.
Come along and say you can,
Be the one to take this feeling,
I'll never understand,
Why walk around the center
With a nail through your hand?
It's another way to run,
It's a lonely weekend
And what have you done?
You know you got a reason to run, babe
You know you got a reason to hide, babe
Come along and say you will,
Be the one to change the meaning
Of the writing on the wall
The lonely politician is lying in the hall.
It's another way to run,
It's a lonely weekend
And what have you done?
You know you got a reason to run, babe
You know you got a reason to hide, babe.
Come along and say you can,
Be the one to take this feeling,
I'll never understand,
Why walk around the center
With a nail through your hand?
LOVE ART BLUES
I've got the love art blues
Don't know which one to choose
There's really something to lose,
With these love art blues.
I went and played too hard,
And I lost my mind.
Oh, these love art blues
Leave me a heavy one.
My songs are all so long
And my words are all so sad
Why must I choose
Between the best things I ever had.
I spilled my promise cup
I really don't know why
Now the distance lies
Between you and I.
My songs are all so long
And my words are all so sad
Why must I choose
Between the best things I ever had.
I've got the love art blues
Don't know which one to choose
There's really something to lose,
With these love art blues.
I went and played too hard.
LOVE HOTEL
If you travel with
Those who know you well
I can recommend
Stay at Love Hotel.Every room a hallway
Softly sell
Don't get stranded on the lift
Of the Love Hotel
Love Hotel, Love Hotel, Love Hotel.
Don't deny yourself
It wants simple truth
Ring for give and take
As the floor and room.
Every room a hallway
Who can tell
Don't get stranded by the lift
Of the Love Hotel
Love Hotel, Love Hotel, Love Hotel.
Every room a hallway
Softly sell
Don't get stranded by the lift
Of the Love Hotel
Love Hotel, Love Hotel.
MIDNIGHT ON THE BAY
It's midnight on the bay
And lights are shinin'
And the sailboats sway
And that cool ocean breeze.
Blowin' down through the keys
I think I'll call it a day
Oh, midnight on the bay.
Sure feels good to me.
What's this I see
There's someone comin'
Walkin' right up to me
She tells me I know your name
And if it's all the same
I'd like to spend some time.
And midnight on the bay
Sure feels good to me.
And now it's midnight on the bay
Lights are shinin'
On the sailboats that sway
In the cool ocean breeze
Blowin' down through the keys
I think I'll call it a day
Oh, midnight on the bay.
Sure feels good to me.
MODERN WORLD
We live in a modern world
With communication between boy and girl
Oh yeah
But under the stars above
We just don't recognize
the power of love is free
We gotta change
We gotta change
We gotta change how we feel
We gotta change
We gotta change
When anger has closed the door
My eyes go blind and I can see inside
I hurt you and you hurt me
Which crimes of love in the first degree
Oh yeah
We gotta change
We gotta change
We gotta change how we feel
We gotta change
We gotta change
We live in a modern world
With communication between boy and girl
oh yeah
but when there are clouds above
We just don't recognise
the power of love is free
We gotta change
We gotta change
We gotta change how we feel
We gotta change
We gotta change
