1. LIES

You told me this, you told me that
You try to tell me, tell me where it's at
You said you loved me, I can see through that

Lies, lies, lies

You left me hangin', hangin' from a limb
You said you loved me, then you left with him
Lord, you did it to me, I see it in your eyes

Lies, lies, lies

Tell me baby, why you take my time
You get a thrill off playing with my mind
Lord, you did it to me, I see it in your eyes

Lies, lies, lies


2. EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT

Same old hassle every night
All we do is fuss and fight
Ain't no use in talking, might as well start walking
Walking out into the night
You get your gun, I'll get mine
We can do it just one time
If we live no longer, it won't get no stronger
Then we'll know who's really right
All we do is weep and moan
Trying to build ourself a home
Ain't no shame in trying, ain't no use denying
Everything will be alright


3. I'LL KISS THE WORLD GOODBYE

I've been so lonely in these prison walls
Good lord, thinking I would die
You've got the time to get me out

I'll kiss this world goodbye

I've taken some things I don't really need
I've wandered out any pride
Just wave me off, I'll leave without doubt

I'll kiss this world goodbye

The rain will fall and I need a woman
Lord, I think I'm gonna die
I've taken some things I don't really need
I've wandered out any pride
Just wave me off, I'll leave without doubt

I'll kiss this world goodbye


4. CHANGES

How can you put me through these changes
Why do you do me like you do
It ain't no way
I love-a-dee love nobody but you
Let him go out and get with strangers
Don't you turn my love to hate
Ain't no man can love you like I can, and I do
How can you put me through these changes
Why do you do me like you do
It ain't no way
I love-a-dee love nobody but you


5. RIGHT DOWN HERE

My woman, my woman, you know she cryin'

She keeps me hanging on a bottle of wine
She leaves no roads open, there ought to be a law
She puts me right down here
She keeps me right down here
She holds me right down here

Lord, I talk and talk about her, can't get her off my mind
Cannot live without her, she keeps me on this wine

She leaves no roads open, there ought to be a law
She puts me right down here
She holds me right down here
She keeps me right down here

Lord, I talk and talk about her, can't get her off my mind
Cannot live without her, she keeps me on that wine

She leaves no roads open, there ought to be a law
She put me right down here
She keep me right down here
She hold me right down here
She puts me right down here
She holds me right down here
She keeps me right down here


6. IF YOU'RE EVER IN OKLAHOMA

If you're ever in Oklahoma
You better move around at night
'Cause they don't like no transportation
Slipping by in-and-out of sight
And they don't care about Dallas, Texas
And they don't care about Wichita

If you're ever in Oklahoma
You better move around the law
They got fines and they got plenty
They'll hold you up for days on end
Threaten your life and take your money
Make you think you're there to stay


7. RIDIN' HOME

I'm sittin' on this train and I'm ridin' home, ridin' home
I'm sittin' on this train and I'm ridin' home, ridin' home

I've got my bag and I'm ready to go
I wish this train didn't move so slow
I'm sittin' on this train and I'm ridin' home, ridin' home

This train don't move like it used to, ridin' home
This train don't move like it used to, ridin' home
This train don't move down the railroad track

Fast enough to get my baby back

This train don't move like it used to, ridin' home


8. GOING DOWN

Yeah, I'm going down
Going down, down, down, down, down

I'm going down
Going down, down, down, down, down

Got my big feet, hanging on to the ground
Don't let me down, close that boxcar down
Don't let me down, close that boxcar down
I'm going back


9. SOULIN'

I sure like your movin'
It's got me to groovin'
I can't wait a minute
You can't condescendin'
Your slow rollin', rollin'
You got me to soulin'

It's worth more than money
So get down on it, honey
Just keep right on cookin'
You know I'm a-lookin'

It's worth more than money
So get down on it, honey
I sure like your movin'
It's got me to groovin'
Your slow rollin', rollin'
You got me to soulin'


10. PLAYING IN THE STREET

Hiding in the alley, smoking cigarettes
Tippling in the corner, Lord, I can't forget
I ain't seen no rolling, no rolling do I need
Come and get me mama, I been playing in the street
Grown into a big man, grass it get me high
Long before I fainted
Walking through the jungle, lord what can I see
Come and get me mama, I've been playing in the street
Ain't no doubt about it
Down that alley lonely
I'm gonna call you sweetheart, you can call me sweet
Come and get me mama, I've been playing in the street


11. MO JO

I've got my mojo working but it just don't work on you
I've got my mojo working but it just don't work on you
I done tried it in New York city, now I'm gonna try it out on you
I've got my mojo working
I've got my mojo working
Lord, I've got my mojo working
I've got my mojo working
I've got my mojo working, it just don't work on you


12. LOUISIANA WOMEN

Had me a gal in Baton Rouge, called her Lou-easy-ann
She gave me a little bit of olden dream and a key of marijuana

She treat me right
Lord, lord, lord, she treat me right
She treat me right, lord, lord

Well, I went on to New Orleans, had myself a ball
The ladies there, they don't care, they don't care at all
They treat you right
Warm, warm, Louisiana night
Treat you right, lord, lord
From the gulf of the Mississippi, up to Baton Rouge
Those Louisiana women, oh lord
Lord, you just can't lose

They treat you right
Treat you right
They treat you right, lord, lord, lord, lord
