Don't you feel like talkin' to a man who's fed up walkin' all the time
Don't you feel like sayin' to a man who's fed up prayin' that you're mine We fought a lot of battles from Nebraska to Seattle, I'm so tired We hid in lonely places and we never seen the faces a?til they fired. Well hear me talkin' (blood and glory) I'm fed up walkin' (blood and glory) I'll tell a story (blood and glory) About blood and glory. When we threw away our sabers and we joined with Preston's Raiders for a while We looted and we plundered while the Yankee cannons thundered, we just smiled But now back home in Kentucky, and I know I've been lucky to survive I never want to see another cannon aimed at me while I'm alive. Well hear me talkin' (blood and glory) I'm fed up walkin' (blood and glory) I'll tell a story (blood and glory) About blood and glory. Vocals: Gerry Rafferty |

Rick rack, rickety rack
See the train go along the track When I grow up I want to be an engine driver But if I can't be that I'll be a deep sea diver. My father says that I must always work on the land And I never disagreed when I'd see him lift his hand Mother thinks that I should be a carpenter to trade That I could fill my house with the things that I had made. Rick rack, rickety rack See the train go along the track When I grow up I want to be an engine driver But if I can't be that I'll be a deep sea diver. I look at the skies, see the birds that can fly, and I feel like cryin' Like a bird on the tree I just want to free so I'll keep on tryin'. Rick rack, rickety rack See the train go along the track When I grow up I want to be an engine driver But if I can't be that I'll be a deep sea diver. My brother says that I must pay attention at the school Because I've never won a prize, he thinks that I'm a fool Teacher always asks me why I look so far away It's just that I find nothing in the words he has to say. Rick rack, rickety rack I'm leaving home and I'm never coming back I'm on my way to be an engine driver But if I can't be that I'll be a deep sea diver. |

My daddy was a miner, said there was nothing finer
Than an Irish man who worked an honest day From Steamboat Row, in rain or shine, he'd make his way down to the mine Along the dusty road he'd travel Fifteen miles to get there, fifteen miles to go Fifteen miles back home again, home to Steamboat Row. He used to tell about the time he got hurt down in the mine He said he'd never go back down again But in his heart he knew he would, he did the only thing he could Kept on walkin' down that road Fifteen miles to get there, fifteen miles to go Fifteen miles back home again, home to Steamboat Row. But when he took to drinkin' we knew that he was thinkin' That his days were quickly coming to an end He'd only speak of Steamboat Row, he said someday we ought to go And walk along that dusty road Fifteen miles to get there, fifteen miles to go Fifteen miles back home again, home to Steamboat Row. |

"Do it on the microphone, thank you, Gerald" (you have to turn it up way loud to hear this)
Sitting here is really bringing me down I think I'll get up and go downtown Have a drink and maybe look up a friend To talk the hours away and hope the night will never end. Look in my pockets to see what I've got I count my money, I don't have a lot The situation is always the same I've got to get out of here, this place is driving me insane. Hold on, I'm getting the new street blues. About a year ago, I knocked on this door I asked my friend if I could sleep on the floor He took me in, said I was welcome to stay I told him then that I was going to pay him back someday. He took me in and all he asked was a song It didn't sound me when I knew it was wrong It got so bad that we were drunk every night And I'd pretend that come tomorrow night things would be alright. Hold on, I'm getting the new street blues. Sitting here is really bringing me down I think I'll get up and go downtown Have a drink and maybe look up a friend To talk the hours away and hope the night will never end. Look in my pockets to see what I've got I count my money, I don't have a lot The situation is always the same I've got to get out of here, this place is driving me insane. Hold on, I'm getting the new street blues.

Genuflect, show respect,
Don't forget it's a papal command Take your seat, all you need Is your rosary beads in your hand. Time to start, cross your heart, Be a part of the mystical band Look at everybody trying to find their own place Looking for a heaven up high Working just to get into a state of grace We know we're gonna need it when we die. Say your prayers, fill your fears Shed your tears, you're afraid of hell's fire As you sit there and pray You'll get carried away by the choir. And the incense is sweet, takes you right off your feet And makes you higher Look at everybody trying to find their own place Looking for a heaven up high Working just to get into a state of grace We know we're gonna need it when we die. Look at everybody trying to find their own place Looking for a heaven up high Working just to get into a state of grace We know we're gonna need it when we die. |

Long as I got your love, you know that I'll never leave When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind And it's been you, woman, right down the line I know how much I lean on you, only you can see Changes that I've been through have left their mark on me You've been as constant as a northern star, the brightest light that shines It's been you, woman, right down the line I just wanna say this is my way Of telling you everything I could never say before Yeah, this is my way Of telling you that every day I'm loving you so much more 'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night Put something better inside of me, you brought me into the light Threw away all those crazy dreams, I put them all behind And it was you, woman, right down the line I just wanna say this is my way Of telling you everything I could never say before Yeah, this is my way Of telling you that every day I'm loving you so much more If I should doubt myself, if I'm losing ground I won't turn to someone else, they'd only let me down When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind And it's been you, woman, right down the line |

Night comes down and finds you alone
In a space and time of your own Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows. Down the street the neon light shines Offering refuge and hope to the blind You stumble in with no thought of tomorrow. Yes, I get a little lonely when the sun gets low And I end looking for somewhere to go Yes, I should know better but I can't say no. Oh no no no No no no no The lights are low and the Muzak is loud You watch yourself as you play to the crowd One more face in a palace of mirrors. One more drink, you're sailing away One more dream but it's looking ok One more time to watch the flow of the river. Yes, I get a little lonely when the sun gets low And I end looking for somewhere to go Yes, I should know better but I can't say no. Oh no no no No no no no no no no oooooooh Yes, I get a little lonely when the sun gets low And I end looking for somewhere to go Yes, I should know better but I can't say no. Oh no no no No no no no You've seen it all yeah you've seen it before Like a fool you always come back for more You live your life like there was no more tomorrow. Night comes down and finds you alone In a space and time of your own Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows. Yes, I get a little lonely when the sun gets low And I end looking for somewhere to go Yes, I should know better but I can't say no. Oh no no no Oh no no no No no no no No no no no No no No no Oooooooooooh Drums: Liam Genockey Bass Guitar: Mo Foster Organ: Pete Wingfield Electric Piano: Graham Preskett String Machine: Graham Preskett Guitars: Hugh Burns Percussion: Frank Ricotti Lyricon Solo: Raphael Ravenscroft Piano/Polymoog: Gerry Rafferty Vocals: Gerry Rafferty |

Night Owl
Right Down the Line (Compilation) One More Dream (Compilation) Clowns to the Left, Jokers to the Right (Compilation) Out on the street I was talkin' to a man He said "there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand" You shouldn't worry yes that ain't no crime Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time). You need direction, yeah you need a name When you're standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same After a while you can recognize the signs So if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time). Life is a liar yeah life is a cheat It'll lead you on and pull the ground from underneath your feet No use complainin', don't you worry, don't you whine Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time). You gotta grow, you gotta learn by your mistakes You gotta die a little everyday just to try to stay awake When you believe there's no mountain you can climb And if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time (next time). Next time, hmmmmm Drums: Liam Genockey Bass Guitar: Gary Taylor Electric Piano: Tommy Eyre Synthesizers: Tommy Eyre Guitars: Hugh Burns Percussion: Frank Ricotti Sax: Raphael Ravenscroft Acoustic Guitar: Gerry Rafferty Vocals: Gerry Rafferty |

I remember the sound of the passing train As it rolled through the night in the pouring rain And the touch of a hand and the way she said : 'Goodbye'. And we walked in the sun down the royal mile Saw the light in her eye and the way she smiled And she cried in the night and I heard her say : 'Don't go'. What can I do, sweet darlin' ? I don't want to go away Looking at you, sweet darlin', I know I want to stay What can I do, sweet darlin' ? And the light of the day I was rolling home I was thinking of you waiting on your own And I wanted to call but they sudden said : 'Oh no'. Yeah, but now it's a dream, it's a memory But I'll never forget what you gave to me I was lost and alone but you made feel OK. What can I do, sweet darlin' ? I don't want to go away Looking at you, sweet darlin', I know I want to stay What can I do, sweet darlin' ? I remember the sound of the passing train As it rolled through the night in the pouring rain And the touch of a hand and the way she said : 'Goodbye'. What can I do, sweet darlin' ? I don't want to go away Looking at you, sweet darlin', I know I want to stay What can I do, sweet darlin' ? |

I was lost on an endless sea
Going down, going down, going down on an endless sea Sail with the wind, you weather the storm You bring it all home, bring it all home, you bring it all home. I was free in the dead of night I want you, I want you, I want you in the dead of night Give me your love, I'll sing you my blues I bring it all home, bring it all home, I bring it all home. I was blind in the light of day I need you, I need you, I need you in the light of day I still won't let go, hang on to this pride I bring it all home, bring it all home, I bring it all home. I was lost on an endless sea Going down, going down, going down on an endless sea Think to yourself as you're laughing it off Bring it all home, bring it all home, bring it all home. (fade) Yeah you think to yourself as you're laughing it off Bring it all home, bring it all home, bring it all home.

Out on the street and the rain is fallin', I got nowhere to go
Here in my heart I can hear you callin' maybe I should come back home I don't know what keeps us together, but I can't break the chain I don't mind a little stormy weather, but I just can't stand the rain. Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon. Sleep won't come so you lie there waitin', lookin' at the silvery light Tellin' yourself there's nothin' new, so whatever gets you through the night Meanwhile back in the music business the beat goes on and on I sell my soul to the company man, when there's nothin' else to lean upon. Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon. People come and people go, friends they disappear There's only one thing that I wanna know, tell me where do we go from here Everybody's on the make, everybody's tryin' to get ahead In a world like this you just exist to feed the walkin' dead. Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon. Lookin' out on a world gone crazy, waitin' for the fun to begin The race is on yeah they're gettin' ready, Jesus what a state we're in Meanwhile down in my backyard I'm sittin' doin' solitary Now that I've milked the sacred cow, I just worry ‘bout the military. Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon. (fade) Get ready Get ready Drums: Liam Genockey Electric Guitar: Hugh Burns Percussion: Maurice Pert Keyboards: Kenny Craddock Lead Vocals: Gerry Rafferty Backing Vocals: Gerry Rafferty / Christopher Neil |
