1. DREAM ON

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face gettin' clearer
Fffffff... the past has gone
It went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

Yeah... I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know... how to win

Half my life's in books written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you

Sing with me sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing it with me if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

Well... sing with me sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing it with me if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away... ahh

Mmmm... dream on... dream on... dream on
Dream yourself a dream come true
Dream on... dream on... dream on
And dream until your dream come true

Dream on... dream on... dream on... dream on
Dream on... dream on... dream on... aaahhh...

Sing with me sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing it with me if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow good Lord will take you away

Sing with me sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing it with me if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away


2. SAME OLD SONG AND DANCE

Heyyyy hey yeah.....

Get yourself cooler lay yourself low
Coincidental murder with nothin' to show
When the judge' constipation will go to his head
And his wife's aggravation you soon end up dead

It's the same old story
Same old song and dance a my friend
It's the same old story
Same old song and dance my friend

Got'cha with da cocaine they found with your gun
No smoothy face lawyer could get'cha undone
Say love ain't the same on the south side of town
You could look but'cha ain't gonna find it around

It's the same old story
Same old song and dance my friend
It's the same old story
Same old story same old song and dance

Fate comes a knockin'
Doors start lockin'
Your old time connection
Change your direction
You ain't gonna change it
Can't rearrange it
Can't stand the pain when
It's all the same to you... my friend

When you're low down and dirty from walkin' the street
Wit'cha old hurdy-gurdy no one to meet
Say love ain't the same on the south side of town
You could look but'cha ain't gonna find it around

It's the same old story
Same old song and dance a my friend
It's the same old story... same old story
Same old song and dance... yeah


3. SWEET EMOTION

Sweet emotion
Sweet emotion

Talk about things that nobody cares
Wearin' other things that nobody wears
Ya callin' my name but I gotta make clear
I can't say baby where I'll be in a year

Some sweat-hoga mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go musta' got up and went
Well I got good news she's a real good liar
'Cause her backstage a boogie set'chor pants on fire

Sweet emotion
Sweet emotion

I pulled into town in a police car
Your daddy said I took you just a little too far
Ya tellin' me things but'chor girlfriend lied
You can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died

A yes it did

Standin' in the front just a shakin' your ass
I'll take you backstage you can drink from my glass
We'll talk about something you can sure understand
'Cause a month on the road and I'll be eatin' from your hand


4. WALK THIS WAY

Backstroke lover always hidin' 'neath the covers
'Til I talked to your daddy he say
He said you ain't seen nothin' 'til you're down on a muffin
Then you're sure to be a changin' your way
I met a cheerleader was a real young bleeder
Oh the times I could reminisce
'Cause the best things of lovin' with her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss
A like this

Seesaw swingin' wit da boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
I sing hey diddle diddle
Wit'chor kitty in the middle of the swing like you didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin' 'cause she knew what she was doin'
And I knowed love is here to stay

When she told me to

Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way

A just gimmie a kiss
A like this
Oooh... uuh

Schoolgirl sweetie with a classy kinda sassy
Little skirt's climbin' way up the knee
There was three young ladies in the school gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me
I was a high school loser never made it with a lady
'Til the boys told me somethin' I missed
Then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
So I gave her just a little kiss
A like this

Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
I sing hey diddle diddy
Wit'chor kitty in the middle of the swing like ya didn't care
A so I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin' 'cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me to

Walk this way (x7)
Talk this way

A just gimmie a kiss
Like this


5. LAST CHILD

Ooooh ooh...
I'm dreaming tonight I'm living back home
Right
Yeah... yeah

Take me back to a south Tallahassee
Down cross the bridge to my sweet sassafrassy
Can't stand up on my feet in the city
Gotta get back to the real nitty gritty

Yes sir no sir
Don't come close to my
Home sweet home
Can't catch no dose
Of my hot tail poon tang sweetheart
Sweathog ready to make a silk purse
From a J. Paul Getty and his ear
With her face in her beer

Home sweet home

Get out in the field
Put the mule in the stable
Ma she's a cookin'
Put the eats on the table
Hate's in the city
And my love's in the meadow
Hands on the plow
And my feets in the ghetto

Stand up sit down
Don't do nothin'
It ain't no good when boss man's
Stuffin' down their throats
For paper notes
And their babies cry
While cities lie at their feet
When you're rockin' the street

Home sweet home

Mama take me home sweet home

I was the last child
I'm just a punk in the street
I was the last child
I'm just a punk in the street
I was the last child
I'm just a punk in the street
I was the last child
I'm just a punk in the street
I was the last child
I'm just a punk in the street


6. BACK IN THE SADDLE

I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again

Ridin' into town alone
By the light of da moon
I'm looking for ole' Sukie Jones
She crazy horse saloon
Barkeep gimme a drink
That's when she caught my eye
She turned to gimme a wink
That'd make a grown man cry

I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back

Umm... come easy go easy
Alright 'til the rising sun
I'm calling all the shots tonight
I'm like a loaded gun
Peelin' off my boots and chaps
I'm saddle sore
Four bits gets you time in the racks
I scream for more

Fools' gold out of their mines
The girls are soaking wet
No tongue's drier than mine
I'll come when I get back

I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm riding I'm loading up my pistol
I'm riding I really got a fistful
I'm riding I'm shining up my saddle
I'm riding this snake is gonna rattle

I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back

Ridin' high
Ridin' high
Ridin' high


7. DRAW THE LINE

Chaaa....

Checkmate honey beat'choo at'chor own damn game
No dice honey I'm livin' on a astral plane
Feet's on the ground and your head's goin' down the drain
Oh heads I win tails you lose to the nether mind
When to draw the line

A Indian summer Carrie was all over the floor
She was a wet nap winner and rarely ever left the store
She'd sing and dance all night and wrong all the right outta me
Oh... pass me the vile and cross your fingers it don't take time
Know where to draw the line

Hi ho silver we were singin' all your cowboy song
Oh... you told Carrie and promised her you wouldn't be long
Heads I win tails you lose lord it's such a crime
No dice honey you the salt you're the queen of the brine
Checkmate honey you're the only one who's got ta choose
Where to draw the line

Aaaahhh... checkmate don't be late
Take another bow
That's right...
Impossible... when you got to be yourself
You're the boss of the toss
The dice... the price
Write yourself a song and draw the line

Ooo... line (x9)


8. KINGS AND QUEENS

Long ago in days I'm told
Were ruled by Lords of greed
Maidens fared with gold
They dared to bare their wombs that bleed

Kings and queens and guillotines
Taking lives denied
Starch and parchment laid the laws
When bishops took the ride
Only to deceive

Oh I know I lived this life afore
Somehow know now truths I must be sure
Tossin turnin' nightmares burnin' dreams of swords in hand
Sailin' ships the Viking spits the blood of father's land
Only to deceive

Living times of knights and mares
Raising swords for maidens fair
Sneer at death fear only loss of pride

Live in other centuries
Deja vu or what'cha please
Follows true to all who do or die

Screams of no reply... they died
Screams of no reply... and died
Lordy lordy and then then they died
Lordy no then they died

Oooooohhhhh......

Live and do or die
Long ago in days I'm told... Lord they died
Kings and queens and guillotines...
Live and no reply... they died
Long ago in days I'm told...
Kings and queens and guillotines...


9. COME TOGETHER

Here come ol' flat top
He come grooving up slowly
He got Joo Joo eye ball
He one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee.
Got to be a joker
He just do what he please.

He wear no shoeshine
He got toe jam football
He got monkey finger
He shoot Coca Cola
He say I know you you know me
One thing I can tell you
Is you got to be free.
Come together right now, over me.

He bag production,
He got walrus gumboot,
He got O-no side board,
He one spinal cracker,
He got feet down below his knee.
Hold you in his armchair,
You can feel his disease.
Come together, right now, over me.

He roller coaster,
He got early warning,
He got Muddy Water,
He one Mojo filter,
He say one and one and one is three.
Got to be good looking,
'Cause he so hard to see.
Come together, right now, over me.

Come together (x4)


10. REMEMBER

Seems like the other day
My baby went away
She went away, 'cross the sea

It's been two years or so
Since I saw my baby go
And then this letter came for me

It said that we was through
She found somebody new
Oh, lemme think, lemme think
What shall I do

Oh, no
Oh, no
Oh, no no no no no
Remember, walking in the sand
Remember, walking hand in hand
Remember, the night was so exciting
Remember, her smile was so inviting
Remember, then she touched my cheek
Remember, with her fingertips
Remember, softly
Softly we met with a kiss

Whatever happened to
The girl that I once knew
The girl that said, she'd been true
Oh, whatever happened to
That night I gave it to you
What will I do with it now
Oh...

Oh, no
Oh, no
Oh, no no no no
Remember, walking in the sand
Remember, walking hand in hand
Remember, the night was so exciting
Remember, her smile was so inviting
Remember, a then she touched my cheek
Remember, with her fingertips
Remember, softly
Softly we met with a kiss

Whatever happened to
That girl that I once knew
That girl that said, she'd been true
Whatever happened to
That night I gave it to you
What would you do with it now
