1. LET IT ROLL



Cold wide sweet highway the place where we'd all go
Went out like a razor sharp and we'd all let it roll
Let it roll
Let it roll, let it go
Let it roll

She'd skid up, and we really let it down
Layin' it out, let it roll

When these wheels get rollin'
Let 'em roll right over you
The time will be sound and I'll always put it through
Let it roll, let it roll
Let it roll

She'd skid up, and we really let it down
Layin' it out, let it roll

Cold wide sweet highway the place where we'd all go
Went out like a razor sharp and we'd all let it roll
Let it roll
Let it roll, let it go
Let it roll

She'd skid up, and we really let it down
Layin' it out, let it roll





2. SHOOT SHOOT



Was a fast tough woman loved to play the clown
You won't do nothin' about it
Break a good boy's resistance down
You know she's got a pistol
Laid it down for real
She said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy
You gotta shoot it for me

Convinced me that she was worth it
Never knew I was her kill
And two 45's would do the trick and pay the bills

You know she's got a pistol
Laid it down on me
And she said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy
You gotta shoot it for me

I've really got to get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here now

Holing out in my hotel room police they finally come
And there's the prosecution, and my friends have palmed the gun

You know she's got a pistol
Laid it down on me
And she said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy
You gotta shoot it for me

I've really got to get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here now





3. HIGH FLYER



High flyers, wheelin' birds
I'm so far out to sea
Ships are passing every night
Oh, all my boyish dreams

And your every melody
With the sea tides tossin' free
Never, never holdin' back
Rock and rollers drift by

Turn to summer, goes so fast
Seems I'll never see you
One weekend and a photograph
Oh, all my boyish dreams

And your every melody
With the sea tides tossin' free
Never, never holdin' back
Rock and rollers drift by





4. LOVE LOST LOVE



Saturday night, all alone
Lookin' for some thrills
Try to catch the bands last song
Back stage pass really showin' out
Feel that's where I belong

Sittin' down, all the big stars at the bar
I really have a rock vocation
Momopemania, schizophrenia
Rise to any situation

Of old lost love, where will you go
When the show is over
Nobody wants to know

We need to feel something that's real
'Cause you're losin' from the start
So be careful with your heart

We need to feel something that's real
Cause you're losin' from the start
So be careful with your heart

Papa's in the next bed and they're dancing cheek to cheek
And I understand their hot wire conversation
Yes, you're pretty, who needs a pretty face
With a hot lips reputation

Of old lost love, where will you go
When the show is over
Nobody wants to know





5. OUT IN THE STREET



Lady loves to hang on
Lady liked a real intellectual
Sweet sister your still shaking
And your tragedy is never ending
Silver shoes you're wearing
Every window that you've ever stared in
Over my head, over my head

Sidewalks of the city
And every theater there you've ever played
Your comic book impersonations
Your wish for cinders embers to keep
Over my head, so it' all

Out in the street for just one more matinee
Yes, your vaudeville carries on
So put a smile in front your man can see
Yes, your vaudeville carries on

Out in the street for just one more matinee
Yes, your vaudeville carries on
So put a smile in front your man can see
Yes, your vaudeville carries on

Lady loves to hang on
Lady liked a real intellectual
Sweet sister your still shaking
And your tragedy is never ending
Silver shoes you're wearing
Every window that you've ever stared in
Over my head, over my head





6. MOTHER MARY



Try to make some changes really on the line
Given your religion, never ever time
All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor
Don't misunderstand it, baby needs some more

Lovin' up some ransom, weapon and a gun
Just your education, hard to understand
Will the teenage lesion make a mark on you
Make a big tome status, then we run them through

Mother Mary could you ever really feel the same
And would you try to understand a wild colonial boy

Try to make some changes really on the line
Given your religion, never ever time
All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor
Don't misunderstand it, baby needs some more

Mother Mary could you ever really feel the same
And would you try to understand a wild colonial boy





7. TOO MUCH OF NOTHING



I really tried my hardest just to make you understand
It feels like to a boy, when he don't feel like a man
But you gave me so much money
And you would not understand

I realize I hurt you, so I stay just as I am
But the whole world keeps on turnin'
Yes, the whole world keeps on turnin'
But the whole world keeps on turnin'
I just roll along

There's been too many mornings
And one too many years
Once went by the big ones who just can't take the pace
We found out the hard way
I hope you understand
That my life is just my head
And I had an overdose

But the whole world keeps on turnin'
Yes, the whole world keeps on turnin'
But the whole world keeps on turnin'
I just roll along

I used to try, I used to try
Used to cry, oh I used to cry

But the whole world keeps on turnin'
Yes, the whole world keeps on turnin'
But the whole world keeps on turnin'
I just roll along





8. DANCE YOUR LIFE AWAY



Give a dance band competition fox-trotting with my girl
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away
I hear razzle dazzle, the session is the trouble
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away

There I was on the floor and twenty partners left
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away
Feel so tired it must be a week
Nearly on my knees
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away

California, you always seem to have the sun
But I never really got near to it
And to turn hand to anything you know
Just to try it

Give a dance band competition fox-trotting with my girl
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away
I hear razzle dazzle, the session is the trouble
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away

California, you always seem to have the sun
But I never really got near to it
And to turn hand to anything you know
Just to try it





9. THIS KID'S (INCLUDING BETWEEN THE WALLS)



Kid's gettin' tired of hangin' around
So cocksure, thingin' aloud
Can't get it in when you can't get it out
Sure ain't enough and there ain't no doubt

You can't stop a train with just a smile
Stop bein' a star only for a while
Hole in my pocket and a hole in my arm
And that's left when life's lost it's charm

This could be for us just any other day
So come on girl, we really got to get away
It's the only chance you'll ever have to take
Stayin' in this city will drive you insane

Kid's gettin' tired of hangin' around
So cocksure, thingin' aloud
Can't get it in when you can't get it out
Sure ain't enough and there ain't no doubt

Can't win or lose when there's little left to choose
Now til next year it'll always be the same
The black back streets an people who don't know your name
Go with the wind if it'll only carry you away
