THE CRAWL
(Where they dancing, oh the crawl!)

East and west, north and south
Brand-new dance that people shouts about
They call it the crawl, oh crawl
Yeah, the kids on the corner
Everybody's doing the crawl

Yeah, hips take a left, a little to the right
Wiggle in the midlle and you dim the lights
Let's do the crawl, oh the crawl
The kids on the corner
Everybody doing the crawl
Come on, now!

Crawl!
Crawl!

Crawl!
Crawl!

Jimmy got Ditty, Bobby got Robbie
I got my woman, everybody get a girl
And do the crawl, do the crawl
The kids on the corner
Everybody's doing the crawl

Yeah
Crawl!

SITTING IN THE JAIL HOUSE
Sitting in the jail house
Talking to mean old man Dave
Hey, Mr. Watt, do I get my touch
I've got my life on the stake
I'll see through the bars
They'll hang me here because
Even the preacher's coming my way

My trouble started 'cause she was making eyes at me
She had one-man hips, silken hair and tender lips
She was tall and she seemed free
Then in a flash, I was in a clash
I went and killed some woman's man

Hippity ya ya
Hippity ya ya yeah
Hippity ya ya
Hippity ya ya yeah
Oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh

Sitting in the jail house
Talking with the mean old flicker Dave
Hey, Mr. Watt, do I get my touch
I've got my life on the stake
Well, I see through your eyes
It comes as no surprise
No mercy, I will die today
Oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh

LIKE A ROLLING STONE
Well, once upon a time you dressed so fine
Give the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you
Well, folks would call
Say that you were a doll, you're down too far
But you thought they was all kidding you
Kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't act so proud
About having to be scrounging
Your next meal

How does it feel
Tell me, how does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone

Well, you went to the finest school
All right, Miss lonely but you know you only used to get
Juiced in it
Nobody ever taught you how to live out on the street
But now you're gonna have to get
Used to it (Yes you are)
You say you never compromise
With the mystery tramp
But now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say, do you want to
Make a deal

Tell me, how does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Oh, just like a rolling stone

Yeah

Like a rolling stone

Well, princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're gonna drinking, thinking that they
Got it made
They exchange all precious gifts and things
You'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better
Pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in the rags and the language tha the used
Gonna hear him when he calls
You can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets
To conceal

How does it feel
Tell me, how does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Just like a rolling stone
Yeah, like a rolling stone

Like a rolling stone

How does it feel
How does it feel
Yeah
Like a rolling stone
Like a rolling stone

NEW YORK, NEW YORK
Moon over Brooklyn, shining bright
Gonna see my baby in the Bronx tonight
Staten Island, Queens County, New York Harbor
Gotta get back to my Manhattan mama
New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York

Downtown local bound to take me home to
Country canyons made of glass and chrome
Gotta get yourself hip to the ways of the street
You can't get into it until you get down deep in
New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
They had to name it twice
New York, New York

See the wealth passing by my door
Looking through my window on the 86th floor
Can't get used to living where the air is clear
I got to dig the funky urban atmosphere
New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York
New York!

Moon over Brooklyn, shining bright
Gonna see my woman in the Bronx tonight
Staten Island, Queens County, New York Harbor
Gotta get home to my Manhattan mama
New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
They had to name it twice
New York, New York
Oh, New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York
Oh, New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York
New York, New York...

BON TON ROULET
Hey come on, look out, yeah!

Well you see me there, ain't no fool
Once a bar tooling has never been to school
You wanna get some red in a pretty hotel
Better let me show you your way around
You let the bon ton roulet
You let the mulay voulay
Don't you be no foulay
You let the bon ton roulet

You get a pretty old girl
She won't find this
She got boiled like an old crawfish
She don't do nothing but raise sin all night
When it comes to balling
She's a much all right
She let the bon ton roulet
She let the mulay voulay
Don't you be no foulay
Let the bon ton roulet

And the juice was on the baseball game
The free slung arm was all the same
You wanna have fun, man, you got to go
Down to Louisiana to Bezidah Cole
You let the bon ton roulet
You let the mulay voulay
Don't you be no foulay
You let the bon ton roulet
Let the good times roll!

ROLLIN’ AND TUMBLIN’
Well, I rolled and tumbled, I cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and tumbled, I cried the whole night long
Well, I woke up this mornin', I didn't right and wrong

Well they gave me a little whistle to follow back to hell
Gave me a little whistle to follow back to hell
I didn't think our time was come, baby, fare thee well

Well I know my baby she's gonna come to town
Well I know my baby she's gonna come to town
Will you take her, love her I've been walking out

TALK IS CHEAP
Well I don't want to hear you talk
I don't want to hear no speech
'Cause words don't mean a thing
If you don't practise what you preach
Talk is cheap, that's what I heard
If you want to prove something to me
Actions speak louder than words

Well now, people always talking
Talking day and night
Shakin' hands and makin' plans,
I just feel like cryin'
Talk is cheap, that's what I heard
If you want to prove something to me
Actions speak louder than words
(Let's have some action now!)

Well, you talk in the morning
You talk all day long
All that hot air
Is bound to wreck our happy home
Talk is cheap, that's what I heard
If you want to prove something to me
Actions speak louder than words

I don't want to hear you talk
I don't want to hear no speech
Words don't mean a thing
If you don't practise what you preach
Talk is cheap, that's what I heard
If you want to prove something to me
Actions speak louder than words

If you want to prove something to me
Actions speak louder than words

WOLF IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING
I'm looking, I'm looking for a foxy love
Yeah...

I'm a wolf in sheep's clothes, baby
And I'm hunting for a foxy love
I might look like a little lost lamb
But you should hear me howl
When the full moon shines above

Mary had a little lamb
His fleece was white as snow
But that was really me
In sheep disguise
That's a fact I bet you did not know

I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing
I'm hunting for a foxy love
Well, I might look like a little lost lamb
But you should hear me howl when the full moon,
The moon shines above

Little lamb chops, she's such an innocent thing
At least I thought that to be true
But I found out, late one night
She was a wolf in sheep skin too

Because I'm a wolf in sheep's clothes, baby
I'm hunting for a foxy love
I might look like a little lost lamb
You should hear me howl
When the full moon shines above
Let me howl now!

Little Bo Peep, you know she lost her sheep
Nowhere could they be seen
I shouted, hey Bo Peep, forget them sheep
Come spend the night with me

I'm a wolf in sheep's clothes,
Baby, I'm looking for a foxy love
I might look like a little lost lamb
You should hear me howl
When the full moon shines above
I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing
And I'm looking for a foxy love
Well might look like a little lost lamb
You should hear me howl
When the full moon shines above

DON’T HIDE YOUR LOVE
Ooh, you're the kind of girl who could change my world
If you just take hold of my hand now
Make the mountains scream, drive my brain machine
But you don't seem to understand, now
Turn me inside out and upside down
Take me down low
But you keep it hidden deep inside
So it's got nowhere to go

Don't hide your love
Don't hide your love
Don't hide the love that you're afraid to feel
That's a low down dirty deal

You got miles and miles of deep-sea smiles
But I never seen them surface
You got this and that and the other thing
But you don't realize their purpose
How can you be so damn naive
You cause me some frustration
You keep it under lock and key
Why don't you try my combination

Don't you hide your love
Don't hide your love
Don't you hide your love that you're afraid to feel
That's a low down dirty deal
Such a dirty deal

Don’t hide your love

Don't hide your love
Don't hide your love
Don't hide your love 'cause you're afraid to feel
That's a low down dirty deal

Such a dirty deal!
Such a dirty deal!
Don't hide your love
Oh girl

MOTHER-IN-LAW BLUES
It was early in the morning, I heard the rooster crow for day
It was early in the morning, I heard the rooster crow for day
I looked out my window and saw my baby walk away

I got love least of all, I ain't gonna get none no more
Yeah, that long feast of love ain't gonna get none no more
I looked out my window, tell my baby "Please don't go"

I know she heard me calling, she looked back and waved her hand
I know she heard me calling, she looked back and waved her hand
I heard her tell her mother "There goes one no-good man"
Yeah!

Well, I watched my baby leave, her mother had her by the hand
I watched my baby leave, her mother had her by the hand
I'd give anything I had just to see that little girl again

WALKIN’ SLOWLY
Walkin' slowly from you, darlin'
With my head a-hangin' low
I was hopin' that you'd call me
And beg me, baby, please don't go

Walkin' slowly from you, darlin'
With an achin' in my heart
Hopin' that you were mistaken
And that we never more will part

When somebody loves somebody
Just the way I'm lovin' you
Tryin' to keep the tears from fallin'
It's the hardest thing to do

So if you find you were mistaken
And that you really love me true
I will stop this walkin' slowly
And come a-runnin' back to you

When somebody love somebody
Just the way I'm lovin' you
Tryin' to keep the tears from fallin'
It's the hardest thing to do

So if you find you were mistaken
And that you really love me true
I will stop this walkin' slowly
And come a-runnin' back to you
