DANGER
Danger, she's out into the night
Danger, she's such a pretty sight
She was treated so badly it seems
Now she's lookin' for a dream
Danger, she's out into the night

Danger, she walks the streets alone
Danger, all the boys she don't know
All the men, they look her way
Could be hers, hers today
Danger, she's out into the night

Walked into a love affair
Didn't seem going nowhere
With no choice, she thought she might
Now she took the rule right into the night

Danger, she walks the streets alone
All the boys she now knows
And all the men, who look her way
Could be hers today

Risk she'd take to find someone new
She don't know where or who
She wants to do, doin' it right
She's gone out into the night

Danger, she's out into the night
Danger, she's such a pretty sight

Danger, she's out into the night
Danger, she's such a pretty sight
Danger, she's out into the night
Danger, she's such a pretty sight

HEADS IN GEORGIA
Well my head’s in Georgia
But my feet is California bound
Well, my head’s in Georgia
But my feet is California bound
'Cause that good lookin' woman I've got
Wants to leave this Georgia Town

Well, we ride them ol' freight trains
And wreck them automobiles
While we ride them ol' freight trains
And wreck them automobiles
'Cause that good lookin' woman is tired
of these ol' Georgia hills

And that lonesome ol' highway
It seems to be our way, no doubt
And that lonesome ol' highway
It seems to be our way no doubt
'Cause that good lookin' woman and me
And we're just hangin' out

Movin' trains and aeroplanes
Is all we do
I'm runnin' right behind her
Just like she wants me to
Makes me no difference
When all is said and done
Anyways into the setting sun

Well, my head’s in Georgia
But my feet is California bound
'Cause that good lookin' woman I've got
Wants to leave this Georgia Town

Well, my head’s in Georgia
But my feet is California bound
Well, my head’s in Georgia
But my feet is California bound
'Cause that good lookin' woman I've got
Wants to leave this Georgia Town

'Cause that good lookin' woman I've got
Wants to leave this Georgia Town
Good lookin' woman I've got
Wants to leave this Georgia Town

MISSING PERSON
I've been asking some people, if they remember
A girl they forgot, with brown eyes, hair cut, red dress
Have you seen her? I think she's much leaner
I guess she is missing, it's true

She has gone out there somewhere
Disappeared into thin air, I'd just like to find her
I'd like to remind her the good times we had then
More than just good friends, I guess she is missing, it's true

I've been asking around and what I have found
She moved on farther this time
I've been checkin' it out, there ain't no doubt
That woman used to be mine

She is a missing person
She's hidin' away you see
She is a missing person
She's so much lighter than I'll be

She is a missing person
She's got a new rider, she's so much tighter
Missing person
She's hidin' away from me

She up and she left, now she's gone
She didn't even give me a clue
Didn't write me no notes, send me no letters
It's true

She is a missing person,
where are you?
A missing person,
where are you?

Missing person, hidin' away from me
Missing person, missing person
Missing person, missing person
Missing person

WHEN THE WAR IS OVER
When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in their graves

Ain't no sense in no action, killing people all the time
Ain't no sense in no action, killing people all the time
When it happens on the street we call that a crime

Man, he can get along
He just won't agree
Who's right and who's wrong
The matter you see
All of those killings
That ain't the way to go
Gotta get a plan
And change our ways you know

When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in their graves

When this war is over, it will be a better day
When this war is over, it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in their graves

SPORTING LIFE BLUES
I'm getting tired
Of hanging 'round
Think I will marry
And settle down
'cos this old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me

I've got a letter
From my home
Most of my friends are
Dead and gone
I begin to worry
I begin to wonder
'bout days to come

My mother used to
Talk to me
I was young and foolish
And could not see
Now I've got no mother
My sisters and brothers
Don't care for me

I swear I'm gonna
Change my ways
I'm getting older
Everyday
When I was young and foolish
It was so easy
To run and play

I'm getting tired (I'm getting tired)
Of hanging 'round (of hanging 'round)
Think I will marry (think I will marry)
And settle down (and settle down)
'cos this old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me
This old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me

DEAD END ROAD
Well, I feel like I'm runnin'
Down that dead end road
Yes, I feel like I'm runnin'
Down that dead end road
I need someone to tell me
Which way I ought to go?

Say goodbye to the mornin'
Hello evenin' time
Say goodbye to the mornin'
Down that road I'm plyin'
If I look way beyond me
I'll be gettin' way behind

I can't seem to catch up
Distance keeps fallin' away
Can't seem to catch up
Distance keeps fallin' away
Makes no difference where I go
Dead end road everyday

Lord, I feel like I'm runnin'
Down that dead end road
Well, I feel like I'm runnin'
Down that dead end road
I need someone to tell me
Which way I ought to go?

IT’S EASY
If you need a woman in bed with you
Tell her in front what you can do
It's easy, easy as pie
Don't have to be as she
You don't have to lie

If you play the guitar it won't be long
You'd be writing and singing them songs
It's easy, easy you bet
And you've been bet, if you don't quit

If you feel kinda lonesome, a friend's inside
Get yourself a dog and be alright
Get yourself too, lucky me
Now one thing nice, I'll be there twice to love you

It's so easy gettin' through these times
So easy your love and mine

If you wanna think she's ugly and always depressed
She can go out and buy herself a new dress
It's easy, easy for her
Solves all of her problems, that's for sure

It's so easy gettin' through these times
So easy your love and mine

If she cashes your property, you might regret
Use that old plastic, swipe deeper in debt
It's easy, easy you see
If tomorrow never comes, everything is free

It's so easy gettin' through these times
So easy your love and mine

It's so easy gettin' through these times
So easy your love and mine

HARD TO THRILL
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
There is nothing you can show me
That I haven't seen before

I've got time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Over forty years of fridays
You would give up trying too

Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
I'm hardly thrilled
Nothing really moves me anymore
There is nothing you can show me
That I haven't seen before

Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore

ANYWAY THE WIND BLOWS
Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move

Bow-legged woman doing the boogaloo
She got a jive, she got a move
Turn around, do it again
Bow-legged woman, where you been

Fat jack owns a honky-tonk downtown
You can catch a woman if you hang around
You can tear down the door, tear down the wall
Fat jack he don't care at all

Easy come, easy go
Anyway the wind blows

Hey, drummer, drummer, can you give me that beat
Can you give me that beat, got to move my feet
Guitar player been all around the world
But he can't play a lick for looking at the girls

One two three four five six seven
Well, you'd better change your ways or you won't get to heaven
Eight nine ten, gonna stop at eleven
Eleven just lays around with seven

Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move

Easy come, easy go
Any way the wind blows

If time don't tell you then don't ask me
I'm riding on a hurricane down to the sea
If you can't hear the music, turn it up loud
There's movement in the air and movement in the crowd

Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move
Easy come, easy go
Anyway the wind blows

THREE LITTLE GIRLS
When this world got you feelin' low
I don't need nowhere else to go
'Cause I get all the love I need
From three little girls

They're in the garden collectin' snails
On the bed read fairy tales
I get all I'll ever need
From three little girls

'Cause all my world's sad and weary
All my days were windin' up
Then you showed me a better way
My three little girls

Lord, you put me to the test
And led me through the wilderness
Then you showed me a brighter day
With three little girls

Julie Rose and Ellen May
Sophie Bell, you came to stay
You take my breath away
My three little girls

'Cause all my world's sad and weary
All my days were windin' up
You showed me a better way
My three little girls, three little girls

DON’T CRY SISTER
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, I tell you no lie
Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it

When old man trouble knocks on your door
Don't give him no key, he just wants more
He'll turn your life to misery
Kick you down, just like me

Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine

Woke downhearted and you feel so bad
Somebody wants something of nothing you had
Love don't come too easy, you see
A little bit of you and a little bit of me

Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine

Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, I tell you no lie
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Everything'll be just fine
Everything'll be just fine

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
Well, I met this old woman
She was hard as nails
I think that she just come out
Of the County jail
But I loaned her some money
Just to pay her rent
If I would , she would put me
In her last will and testament

Well, I got lots of children
An ex-wife or two
I never hear from them
Till the bills are due
The money I gave her
They already spent
If I could just help 'em out
They would put me in their last will and testament

You know I'm goin' over sixty
I'm older than most
It won't be long now
I'll be nothin' but a ghost
My intentions
It's my intent
To live on a little deeper
Havin' my last will and testament

And when it's all over
They put you in the ground
Send my belongings
To the 'Lost And Found'
My intentions
It's my intent
To live on a little deeper
Havin' my last will and testament

WHO AM I TELLING YOU?
It don't take no fool to love you
You stand out in any crowd
And I know men who want to own you
I can hear them talking loud
There ain't no point in just me talking
Who am I telling you?
But you don't got yourself together
And you can bet whithin in you

I just realised
I just realised
Who am I telling you?

You never lose, you are a winner
It's a simple thing for you
If I'm standing at a crossroad
You know exactly what to do
From this moment on I loved you
Somewhere in between I learned
I'm just reaching out to touch you
It's the point of no return

I just realised
I just realised
And I just realised
Who am I, who am I, who am I telling you?

I just realised
I just realised
I just realised
Who am I, who am I, who am I telling you?

RIDE THE RIVER
Floating down that old river boy
All my worries far behind
Floating down that old river boy
Leave old memories way behind
Yes the days slowly fade
All my life...I cant wait for this time

Floating down that old river boy
Leaves me feeling good inside
Floating down that old river boy
Tryin’ to get to the other side
Yes the days slowly fade
I've been waiting now and forever for this ride

Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river

Floating down that old river boy
All my worries far behind
Floating down that old river boy
Leave old memories way behind
Yesterday slowly fades
I've been waiting now and forever for this ride.

Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river

Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
Ride the river in this boat ride the river
