1. PLEASE GO

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away, I wonder why
Now I am thinking what the reason could be
You said you got no other love, was it a lie to me
You know I'd really die if I should see
You're making love to a man, no matter who you'll be

Listen baby, you can't imagine what happens to me now
You said you wanna be free like other people always told me before
And so if you won't hurt me
Don't stay in this place where our love started
I ask you, I ask you now

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away, I wonder why
Now I am thinking what the reason could be
You said you got no other love, was it a lie to me
You know I'd really die if I should see
You're making love to a man, no matter who

I said please go home now
Before tears come from my eye
I guess you said that I
I should know, oh no, oh no

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away, I wonder why


2. THAT DAY

She left me behind
But in my mind
I hear the words she said to me
I wonder why it had to be one day

She said she loved me
And that was easy to see
But why did she run away
I pray that she'll come back and stay one day

I was walking slowly, met her on my way
It seems she was lonely,
I have no words to say
Where has she gone,
Where has she gone
No heart has ever been hurt
Like this that day
That day, that day, that day


3. IF YOU LEAVE ME

Baby if you leave me
I won't know what to do
So darling do believe me
Oh my heart belongs to you
I know they say a lot of things
About me and what I've done
For baby that's our love and now
My love has changed and you know how
Think what you do before you treat me cruel

Baby if you leave me
You'll find out that you are wrong
But though you still deceive me
You will find my love is strong
I know they say a lot of things
About me and what I've done
For baby that's our love and now
My love has changed and you know how
Think what you do before you treat me cruel

Honey I need you
Every day I need you
It's like a thrill
So please don't be so mean


4. DADDY BUY ME A GIRL

When only a little baby,
I already was rich
A wealthy mother and father,
Gave me all I could wish
Precious toys, things I just wanted
Crowding the park and the stably house

Girls were thinking they loved me
Affection still was for sale
The only time I adored one,
Thinking love was real fun

Soon it started to show,
That girl just wanted my dough
Gave her rings, diamonds and mink coats
Hoping these would make her see
That I'm much more than only money
Affection wasn't for sale

Daddy buy me a girl
Please buy me a girl
You can spend all of your money
To make sure when she calls me honey
Rich or poor, all the same crazy about me


5. SOUND OF THE SCREAMING DAY

Time's fine, six o'clock and go
Now I feel alone and lucky
Get my car and drive into the fields
Where I have to work to get my money
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who asks to live with you and me in any way

Sun is going up, I feel the beams on my head
The birds are whistling good morning
Near and far you can hear the sound
The sound of the working journey man
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who asks to live with you and me in any way

Listen to the sound of the screaming day
Listen to the sound of the screaming day

There's a man who lives his life
And there's a boy who uses his knife
There's a girl who milks a cow
They have to live this anyhow

Time's fine, six o'clock and go
Now I feel alone and lucky
Get my car and drive into the fields
Where I have to work to get my money
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who'll ask to live with you and me in any way

Listen to the sound of the screaming day
Listen to the sound of the screaming day
There's a man who lives his life
And there's a boy who uses his knife
There's a girl who milks a cow
They have to live this any how
La, la, la, la


6. TOGETHER WE LIVE, TOGETHER WE LOVE

I send my bird to a golden cage
Where it can sing it's song of love, love
It takes along the golden key
Then you unlock the door of love
Then think of me, oh then think of me
Cause I send you this golden key
When you accept this little gift
Remember please the song of love, love
And when you're ready, then show it now
Then show it now, that you're in love, love
Then think of me, oh then think of me
Cause I send you this golden key

Together we live together we live
Together we live together we love


7. I'VE JUST LOST SOMEBODY

She came down from far away and smiled at me
In one moment I found out how love can be
Then I realized that she had gone again
I've just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

Though I know that love ever happened this way
I'll be here untill she will return one day
Here low, I am dreaming, she must appear again
I've just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

She came down from far away and smiled at me
In one moment I found out how love can be
Then I realized that she had gone again
I've just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream


8. DONG-DONG-DIKI-DIGI-DONG

Dong dong diki digi dong
And your heart goes dong diki digi dong

You gotta sing it, oh everywhere
In New York City, Memphis, Delaware
We'll sing it loud,
And you'll be proud
To sing it with me until eternity

So you hear this melody
Well sing it along and you'll feel free
You feel uptight and upside-down
Well sing it along and join me around

Dong dong diki digi dong
And your heart goes dong diki digi dong

You gotta wear a pair of ugly old jeans
To dance in California, Nashville, New Orleans
You gotta swing and you gotta move me
You gotta make me feel glad
You gotta make me feel groovy

So you hear this melody
Well sing it along and you'll feel free
You feel uptight and upside-down
Well sing it along and join me around

Dong dong diki digi dong
And your heart goes dong diki digi dong


9. JUST A LITTLE BIT OF PEACE

The rainbow hides no treasure
Oh believe me it's not true
And there ain't no mixture
That will give you back your youth
No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold
Like there ain't no magic word
That holds you back from getting old

I catch a branch
And I break it in my hands
Like you broke my heart
Oh I still can't understand
No mysterious mixture
Can heal the wound you've made
Only time will bring peace to meand
Now I just hate

Oh I'll break up and I give it all up
No more lies, no more rainbow treasures
No more fairytales, no more games for me
It's my life, my life, a pleasure

There's just a little bit of peace in my heart
There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part

I catch a branch
And I break it in my hands
Like you broke my heart
Oh I still can't understand
No mysterious mixture
Can heal the wound you've made
Only time will bring peace to me
And now I just hate

Oh I'll break up and I give it all up
No more lies, no more rainbow treasures
No more fairytales, no more games for me
It's my life, my life, a pleasure

There's just a little bit of peace in my heart
There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part

The time rolls by, the days go by
When will I learn to stop wondering why
Despairing I'm going down on my knees
I'm begging, begging, begging, oh please

There's just a little bit of peace in my heart
There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part


10. WHERE WILL I BE

Where will I be
When the sun won't shine anymore
Where will I be
When the moon won't smile anymore
Where will I be, where will I be

Maybe there's a place to hide from the frost
A place where life can get lost
Until then the end is near
And the skies will never be clear

Where will I be
When the sun ain't shining
Where will I be
When the moon ain't smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying

Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning, for deliverance
Now, where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying
Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm
Where will I be
When the sun ain't shining
Where will I be
When the moon ain't smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning, for deliverance
Where will I be


11. ANOTHER 45 MILES

Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows of the clouds in the sky
I've got to get home, to my child, my wife

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish I could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son

Clouds in the sky
Gathering for a fight
Chasing their prey till it can't go on
I mend my pace 'cos my bride is waiting home

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish I could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son


12. BACK HOME

Goin' back right through the city
Through the country, rivers so pretty
People wonder why I'm going back home
Just the place where I belong

Back home, back home,
Back home, back home

Well I'm a round the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
It's always good to be back home

'round and 'round, the world goes 'round
Got my friends in every town
From border to border, every place I've been
I've gotta be back if you know what I mean

Back home, back home,
Back home, back home

Well I'm a round the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
It's always good to be back home


13. HOLY HOLY LIFE

In bad times when it's dark and cold
You got no place to rest your soul
There's laughter behind your backs
Then it seems the devil rules the deck

Nothin' seems easy these days
Or do I see it in a different way
The world is spinnin', well that's OK
Tell me baby what's the price we pay

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
The sooner or later, they'll find you dead

Why don't you take me down to a rabbit hole
Where a man of peace can hide his soul
Thinkin' about pollution and a birth-control
Better talk to the rabbits, it's somebody's fault

Or maybe sometimes I'm pessimistic
And maybe it ain't so bad, it ain't so sick
I know I'm not the man of constant sorrow
And tell me is it the path of evil to follow

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
Or sooner or later, they'll find you dead

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy, holy, holy


14. JESSICA

Five years gone my lady

15. SHE FLIES ON STRANGE WINGS

Lonely is the night without you
Just as lonely as the shepherd without sheep
And where flies the falcon,
In the high sweet air
Without hunting this Sprane Valleys deer

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

She takes off when she desires
Silence grows on her lips
She can bring you so much higher
She spreads love on all her trips, yeah

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

Woke up this morning
And this feeling came to my head
To fly with her from sky to sky
'Cause my mind seemed to be dead
So I floated up towards her
On my mutilated wings
But all the blackness sings against me now
It's the lady of the strange wings

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange....


16. BUDDY JOE

Let me tell you about Buddy Joe
When he came down from Mexico
With his pockets full of gold
With his pockets full of gold

Have you something to declare
Are you sure there's nothing there
'Cos if there is, don't say
You've not been told

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
Well, I don't really know

Well Buddy Joe searched all his life
Through Mexico, all the riversides
Not for the money, but for the gold
He needs to hold

Well Buddy Joe was proud as he was
Could not stand all the fuss
When they got to all his gold
He was ready to go

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know

Well you'll understand he didn't stand a chance
Everybody was shouting commands
When Buddy Joe split in a hurry
He was ready to be buried

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know


17. STAND BY ME

I don't care if you need more lovin'
More than I can give you everyday
I don't mind if you sleep all over town
If you only care for me,
Than I don't have to say

Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

I don't mind if you need more money
Go out with friends and dance all night
And give your body when you're stoned and wasted
When you're with me, I want you on my side

Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

I don't care if you drive my car
And go ridin' with some rock 'n roll star
You wanna make love and you tell him you're free
But when we're together, please stand by me

Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me


18. RADAR LOVE

I've been drivin' all night,
My hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head
That drives my heel
It's my baby callin',
Says: I need you here
And it's a half past four
And I'm shifting gear

When she is lonely
And the longing gets too much
She sends a cable
Coming in from above
Don't need a phone at all

We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a wave in the air,
Radar Love

The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
The road has got me hypnotized
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely,
And I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort,
Comin' in from above
Don't need a letter at all

We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a line in the sky,
Radar Love

No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars drove down real slow

And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
And the newsman sang his same song
One more radar love is gone

When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort, coming in from above
We don't need no letter at all

We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a line in the sky
We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a thing that's called,
Radar Love


19. THE SONG IS OVER

For you I say I'll praise the sun
Tell the colour of the sky

Find new roads in the universe
Sing a lullaby
More pure than fruit
Grown out of dirt
So close to me
You robbed me of my strangerhood
And flew away to be free

The song is over the song is over now
The singer {is gonna say goodbye} said goodbye
There is doomsday on my mind

Baby baby, sing me one more time
Close to my ear
Mellow tone vibrations come
Sadness disappear
Do it to me once again
Before you say goodbye
Embrace me softly with your smile
And smile a last goodbye

I close my eyes and sail away
The jukebox played your song today
Tomorrow holds me like you're yesterday
I can't forget what you used to say

Open your eyes and live my love
You see it's not me you're dreaming of
Although it seems so important now
Singing makes it all so good somehow


20. INSTANT POETRY

Washing machine, space age dream
Let me serve you, keep me clean
Rinse me plain, spin me sane
I'll trust my dirt to only you

Automobile, see me kneel
I'll scrub your back, I'll buy your meal
I'll choke your start, I'll warm your heart
I'll dream of dying just with you
See me wish from 8 to all day long
Got no time, not inclined to hum a song
Just like a robot waiting for a fuse
I'm too crazy to even have the blues

Instant, instant, instant poetry
Too hot, to be continued next week
Instant, instant, instant poetry
Too slow, too slow, to be tongue-in-cheek

TV syndrome, holy custom
Millions squeeze you to their bosom
You're always welcome, drive out boredom
You're one eye's all the art we need
See me wish from 8 to all day long
Got no time, not inclined to hum a song
Just like a robot waiting for a fuse
I'm too crazy to even have the blues

Instant, instant, instant poetry
Too hot, to be continued next week
Instant, instant, instant poetry
Too slow, too slow, to be tongue-in-cheek
