I know what I need I need you
I can't see nothin else all I can see is you I don't care what they say about my state of mind I know what's good for me and you are just my kind We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals I know what I want I want you Shed your cloths forget your codes You know this is nothing new I smell your scent I taste your sweat I feel this passion too Let's trust our senses not our minds Lets break all the rules We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals Come with me run with me leave this world behind Come to me come with me I know that we will find We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals We are animals (M.CHARLTON) COPYRIGHT 1989 ELGIN MUSIC |

You came 'round today You never even knocked on my door Your note tried to say That you don't love me no more bridge: I want you by my side 'cause I wanna be your man I'm burning up inside 'cause I wanna be your man I had to be told From people that I meet in the street They are turning cold Without you I would not be complete bridge: Why did you write me in a letter? A word from you would be much better lead bridge Don't cast me aside Without you I could never survive Why did you decide To kill the love that keeps me alive bridge: |

If you're ready for the street
You wanna mix it in some fight Let me tell you somethin' Now I don't wanna get you uptight But if you're in a corner And you can't find no way out Don't look around for no help No, no there won't be any around Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy So you think you got a case And you think you know the score No you don't wanna listen You can't be told no more But wait'll you get out there You better do it right 'cause the streets are lined with things that kill And they're hidin' in the night Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Feel that you can cut it You think you got the time They'll only give you one chance Better get it right first time And the game you're playing If you lose you gotta pay If you make just one wrong move You'll get blown away Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Expect no mercy, expect no mercy Words and music by dan mccafferty, manny charlton, pete agnew, And darrell sweet (copyright 1977 mtb music,inc. for canada and u.s.a.)

See the girl with the changing faces
See the boy with the aching smile Empty love's burned out traces See them walking down midnight mile Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you Watch them dancing on a frozen ocean See them skate where the ice is thin Empty love that's a cold emotion See the tears falling in the rain Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you See the mist on the magic mountain Watch the moon in a blood red sky Empty love that's a dried up fountain Never change and never ask him why Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you.

I got no time to eat
I got no time to sleep I got a truck full of stuff Should've been there last week I've been livin' in truck stops My body feels used Got the hamburger that's right, yeah The kentucky fried blues Flyin' high in my cab Got my foot on the gas Got to get there tonight Showin' nothin' but a pass Tired of livin' in truck stops, have mercy My body feels used Got the hamburger, that's right, yeah Kentucky fried blues Even in the fast lane Seems to slow down my brain Got one hell of a deadline Riggers do not complain Tired of livin' in truck stops Lord my body feels used Got the hamburger that's right yeah, yeah, yeah Kentucky fried blues.

Walk me out in the morning dew
Walk me out in the morning dew today I can't walk you out in no morning dew I can't walk you out in no morning dew at all Thought I heard a young girl cryin' mama Thought I heard a young girl cry today You never heard no young girl cryin' You never heard no young girl cry at all Thought I heard a young boy cryin' mama Thought I heard a young boy cry today You didn't hear no young boy cryin' buddy You never heard no young boy cry at all Thought I heard a young man cryin' mama Thought I heard a young man cry today You never heard no young man cryin' You never heard no young man cry at all Now there is no more morning dew Now there is no more morning dew What they've been sayin' all these years is true Now there is no more morning dew. |

My white bicycle, my white bicycle
Riding all around the street Four o'clock and they're all asleep I'm not tired and it's so late Moving fast everything looks great. My white bicycle, my white bicycle See that man, he's all alone Looks so happy but he's far from home Ring my bell, smile at him Better kick over his garbage bin My white bicycle, my white bicycle The rain comes down but I don't care The wind is blowing in my hair Seagulls flying in the air My white bicycle, my white bicycle Policeman shouts but I don't see him They're one thing I don't believe in To find some charge but it's not leavin' Lift both hands, his head in disgrace Shines no light upon my face Through the darkness, we still speed My white bicycle and me My white bicycle, my white bicycle |

She would never say where she came from And yesterday don?t matter if it?s gone When the sun is bright Or on the darkest night No one knows.......she comes and goes chorus: Goodbye ruby tuesday Who could hang a name on you When you change with every new day Still I?m gonna miss you No question why she needs to be so free She?ll tell you it?s the only way to be She just can?t be chained To a life where nothing?s gained And nothing?s lost.......at such a cost chorus: There?s no time to lose I heard her say Cast your dreams before they slip away Tired all the time Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind Ain?t life unkind chorus: (4x) (jagger/richards) Westminster Music |

Look out the left the captain said The lights down there that's where we'll land Saw a falling star burning High above the Las Vegas sand It wasn't the one that you gave to me That night down south between the trailers Not the early one that you wish upon Not the northern one that guides in the sailors You've got that touch so gentle and sweet But you've got that look so critical Can't talk to you babe you know I get so weak Sometimes I think that love is just mythical Up there's a heaven, down there's a town Blackness everywhere any little lights shine Blackness, blackness draggin' me down Come on light a candle in this heart of mine Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like Turn this crazy bird around Should not have got on this flight tonight I'm drinkin' sweet champagne got the headphones up high Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind They're singin'-"Goodbye baby, Baby bye-bye, Ooh! love is blind" Up go the flaps,down go the wheels Hope you got your heat turned on baby Hope they've finally fixed your automobile Hope it's better when we meet again babe. |

Now lay me down on market street
I'm lookin' for some spare change A coastguard ship has been lookin' for me And I might have to change my name Here comes Uncle Sam again With the same old bag of beans The local chief's on the radio He's got some hungry mouths to feed Goin' back to Alcatraz. Lay me back down here on the highway One hundred and one ways to go Solitary is so confinin' To the legend of Geronimo Oh, I know I could bring the rain Used to dance for ABC And all the braves down on death row Are pretending to be free Back home in Alcatraz. In the land of the great white father My American blood runs cold I left my home in Oklahoma To the Everglades I go It's just the wings on the silver cars And I'm allowed to plow a field It's not the life for a nineteen seventy Indian boy to do Goin' back to Alcatraz. Lay me down on market street I'm lookin' for some spare change A coastguard ship has been lookin' for me Might have to change my name Here comes Uncle Sam again With the same old bag of beans Local chief's on the radio He's got some hungry mouths to feed Goin' back to Alcatraz.

She used to be someone you could depend on
To brighten up your coldest winter day But the one she leaned upon Let her down, now has moved on And morning brings another empty day Now she's only a broken down angel She's only a bird that's broke her wing She's only someone, someone who's gone wrong She's only a child that's lost her way She used to be a girl of simple pleasures A breath of spring to chase your blues away But now she bears a cross, for a love that she has lost No sunshine in her life just clouds of gray Now she's only a broken down angel She's only a bird that's broke her wing She's only someone, someone who's gone wrong She's only a child that's lost her way She's only a broken down angel She's only a bird that's broke her wing She's only someone, someone who's gone wrong She's only a child that's lost her way Now she's only a broken down angel She's only a bird that's broke her wing She's only someone, someone who's gone wrong She's only a child that's lost her way |

She's a night woman of my dreams
And I saw her glidin' on a moon beam Silver stardust in her eyes In the way she leaves her sighs. Last night I fell asleep Thought I heard her voice begin to speak My mind is in distress On my cheek I felt her breath. I could feel her body's warmin' glow My frozen blood begn to flow She's a night woman of my dreams And I saw her glidin' on a moon beam Comes, stays, then disappears In the morning sun my vision clears. I could smell the roses in her hair But when I awoke, she was not there. Oooh, oooh, night woman of my dream Oooh, oooh, night woman of my dream Oooh, oooh, she's a night woman of my dream Oooh, oooh, night woman of my dream. |

But I guess they didn't hear My sacrfice was useless My pleas fell on deaf ears So I cried in desperation Bowed to evil sorcery. I looked to the Lord in heaven But he must have looked away My crying eyes repentant Please send her love to light my day So I cried in desperation Bowed to evil sorcery. I sold my soul Sold my soul I sold my soul to the devil. So I cried in desperation Bowed to evil sorcery. I sold my soul Sold my soul I sold my soul to the devil.

Woke up this morning, my dog was dead,
Someone disliked him and shot him through the head. Woke up this morning, my cat had died, I know I'll miss her, sat down and cried. Came home this evening, my hog was gone, People here don't like me, I think I'll soon move on. Now somethings happened, that would make a saint frown, I turned my back and my house burned down. |

Well, some contend that this rock'n'roll Is bad for the body, bad for the soul Is bad for the heart, bad for the mind Bad for the deaf and bad for the blind It makes some men crazy, and then they talk like fools It makes some men crazy, and then they start to drool. Unscrupulous operators could confuse Could exploit and deceive The conditional reflex theories Change the probabilities, I said it's a Crass and raucous crackass place With a Pavlov on the human race It's a terrible illness, a terrible case And usually permanent when it takes place. It's a teenage nervous breakdown It's a teenage nervous breakdown It's a teenage nervous breakdown It's a teenage nervous breakdown. |

Your baby's a-cryin' louder Now it's poundin' on your brain Your baby's a-cryin' louder Now it's poundin' on your brain Your wife's screams are a-stabbin' you Like dirty, drivin' rain. Your grass is turnin' black And there's no water in your well Your grass is turnin' black There's no water in your well You spent your last lone dollar On them seven shotgun shells. Way out in the wilderness A cold coyote calls Way out in the wilderness A cold coyote calls Your eyes fix on the shotgun That's hangin' on the wall. Your brain it is a-bleedin' And your legs can't seem to stand Your brain it is a-bleedin' And your legs just can't seem to stand Your eyes fix on the shotgun That you're holdin' in your hand. There's seven breezes blowin' All around the cabin door Seven breezes blowin' All around the cabin door Seven shots ring out Like the oceans pounding roar. There's seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Somewhere in the distance Somewhere in the distance There's seven new people born. |

Hollis Brown he lived On the outside of town Hollis Brown he lived On the outside of town With his wife and five children In his cabin broken down. He looked for work and money And he walked a ragged mile He looked for work and money And he walked a ragged mile Your children are so hungry That they don't know how to smile. Your baby's eyes look crazy They're tuggin' at your sleeve Your baby's eyes look crazy now They're tuggin' at your sleeve You walk the floor and you wonder why With every breath that breathe.

Look out the left the captain said The lights down there that's where we'll land Saw a falling star burning High above the Las Vegas sand It wasn't the one that you gave to me That night down south between the trailers Not the early one that you wish upon Not the northern one that guides in the sailors You've got that touch so gentle and sweet But you've got that look so critical Can't talk to you babe you know I get so weak Sometimes I think that love is just mythical Up there's a heaven, down there's a town Blackness everywhere any little lights shine Blackness, blackness draggin' me down Come on light a candle in this heart of mine Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like Turn this crazy bird around Should not have got on this flight tonight I'm drinkin' sweet champagne got the headphones up high Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind They're singin'-"Goodbye baby, Baby bye-bye, Ooh! love is blind" Up go the flaps,down go the wheels Hope you got your heat turned on baby Hope they've finally fixed your automobile Hope it's better when we meet again babe. |

Another bridge I have burned
A lesson I learned One more mistake to my cause One more hand got lost In a game. So I was up for awhile Livin' in style Feelin' high on the hog And people just don't wanna know I was down. Now some say I lost His other soul How barely a young man Can sink so low And I don't know... don't care at all. I had a similar dream All of my dreams I can't get through for a while I thought I had wandered a mile I was wrong Now I'm on the way up When you reach the top It's no way, no way to go And people just don't wanna know When you're down Now some say I lost His other soul How barely a young man Can sink so low And I don't know... don't care at all.

Yes, baby, I've been drinkin'
Shouldn't come by anymore But I found myself in trouble, darlin' And I have no place else to go. I got some whiskey from a bottle Got some cocaine from a friend And I had to keep on movin', darlin' Till I was back in your arms again. And I'm guilty, I am guilty And I'll be guilty for the rest of my life. How come I'm never gonna do What I'm supposed to do Seems like everything I do Never turns out right. That's how it is with me, darlin' You know I just can't stand myself But it takes a whole lot of medicine, darlin' For me to pretend that I'm somebody else. |

Since you came into my life
It's the same old situation Empty days and lonely nights Filled with bitterness and frustration. Walking lonely in the cold Tryin' to find the answer Spend my money on a crystal ball And the charms of a gypsy dancer. Tryin' to break the spell you hold on me [Chorus] You're miss misery That song you lay on me Set me free, set me free Please, please, please Everyday is filled with shame My nights are filled with anger Hollow lies, forced denial If you told the truth I can't remember. You know I've got to find my way Got to find a reason Got to find your weakness So I can end your witchin' season. Got to break the spell you hold on me [Chorus] Can't think how I got myself Caught up in this nightmare Evil schemes, midnight screams Come on somebody listen to my prayer I'd give all I've got to give Just to find my way out Got it going but I can't let go I'm trapped on this crazy 'round about Tryin' to break the spell you hold on me [Chorus] |

Hear the whistle blowin' so long
Tellin' me I gotta move along Coast-to-coast gonna steal highway Railroad boy up in the guiding daybreak. Get no sleep in a boxcar Get no piece of line They catch you jumpin' a freight train They give you such a hard time. Movin' fast as my time runs out Coal is something I can live without Railroad fever got me a route Like tumbleweed, I ain't got no roots. You know, no peace in a boxcar Just can't sleep on a line They catch you jumpin' a freight train They give you such a hard time. Lead East coast towns they are Dark and cold West coast ladies They get right to my soul. But you know Can't stand long Bet all railroader's Are singin' my song.

Close up the bar you know the gates of the brewery
She's out there every night And she sure ain't drinkin' tea I love that woman, she's the best one that I had But she's got this habit now and it sure is getting bad That whiskey drinkin' woman Is making a poor man out of me She's got bottles in the kitchen Even got them in my bed Most times I see her now She's three part out of her head Don't know where I went wrong I sure try to treat her right But it sure upsets me Seein' her juiced up every night That whiskey drinkin' woman Is makin' a poor man out of me Got to solve this problem Won't you help me find the key The way that things are going I'll have to buy the distillery She just stands there smilin' With a whiskey in each hand Got to think of something Don't know how much I can stand That whiskey drinkin' woman Is makin' a poor man out of me Got to get myself together, start workin' something out Maybe if I tried some booze, I'd know what it's about I love that woman, she the best one that I had But she's got this problem now And it sure is gettin' bad That whiskey drinkin' woman Is making a poor man out of me |

Sad to be alone Your only comfort is the telephone Homesick again Thoughts of far away Silence is the only way to say Ain't it a shame What's goin' down, she don't understand Can't you be with her every night Why must it be, you're away so long But she plays along, and it's alright People all around You don't see or hear them make a sound It's not the same What's goin' down, she don't understand Can't you be with her every night Why must it be, you're away so long But she plays along, and it's alright Countin' out the days That don't help to ease the days away The price you pay Homesick again (WORDS AND MUSIC BY NAZARETH) COPYRIGHT 1975 JENEVIEVE MUSIC (BMI) |

Here I am, sitting on my porch Thinkin' my life has got to be beyond reproach Have I forgot some friends close to me Real ones that don't use me And does my woman love me now Like she loved me then Here I am,my defenses are down Will she remember me when I'm not around Will she still dream by me Or will she find a new life Will I ever get used, to being alone at night I'll never know, but would it do me any good if I did Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid Lift the lid I'll never know, but would it do me any good if I did Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid Lift the lid (WORDS AND MUSIC BY NAZARETH) COPYRIGHT 1975 JENEVIEVE MUSIC (BMI) |

A shoe shine boy gave me a nickel
With a smile on his face The school kids would give me some gin If I would let them in They were shaking all over Ran into a friend with a lonely lady on his arm Woke up in my garage, I was holding my own Can't remember where I'd been I was aching all over From rolling on the stone I was aching all over from rolling on the hard stone. Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy Kissin' cousins just ain't my style Not like some knight in shining armour Touring with the sideshow That was my blow But we hung on for the fun Lots of fun for everyone Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy Till the danger man with his danger plan He took me aside And then he took me apart I was a young man with love in my heart Oh, how he made me pay It was the hard way It was the hard way Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy Ooh, what a night!

If you've never had no one
Take the word of a fallen angel If you never been no where Take the word of a fallen angel If you've ever been lonely Take the word of a fallen angel You know you're not the first to fall And you know you won't be the last In flight, you never think you can Can be the one who's gonna crash. When you think you can't go on Look around for a fallen angel When you feel you're the lost one Look around for a fallen angel When you're hurtin' for someone Look around for a fallen angel You know you're not the first to fall And you know you won't be the last In flight, you never think you can Can be the one who's gonna crash Don't you think it's time to show Don't you think it's time we know What's in your heart There's a lesson to be learned Take the word of a fallen angel There's a song for every heart Take the word of a fallen angel When you find out where you are Don't you know you're a fallen angel If you've never had no one.

Fast cars,
She lives at the best hotels Big stars, She knows them all so well Lost loves, She's had more than just a few Wrong moves, She can afford more than you She don't know, what real love is She's always had, second best She don't know, what real love is She's always had second best. Headlines, She's been there once or twice Feeling fine She has forgotten the price She don't know, what real love is She's always had second best She don't know, what real love is She's always had second best.

Here we are
We sail on a ship made of dreams And I I only exist to believe The stars The stars that I see watching me Hold me close Your arms and your love comfort me The sea Is deep and it waits endlessly Oh why To give just to take it from me Here we are We sail on a ship made of dreams And I I watch for a sign constantly The sea Is deep and it waits ceaselessly.

His necktie is bright red
From lookin' in one direction No flowerchild in his bed He's got oil well protection Just had to be a blind dog Chewin' on everything Took a slice of the blackbird pie She began her singing I know that your oil is black But your dipstick is pearly white Ten gallons on your head That ain't what I need tonight Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Showdown at the border The rendezvous was neutral He don't want no gossip headlines Her polaroid blackmail He said,"No way I've had mine" Just too much for him to lose Because of some Cuervo passion Cold, cold forty-five, answered in Texas fashion I know that your oil is black But the dipstick is pearly white Ten gallons on your head That ain't what I need tonight Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Bright red went to his head Tequila tension rising This is no business for the weak at heart This is no business for those with a Nervous disposition Tanned man from the f.e.d.'s Cool mohair buying off the squeeze Showdown at the border (Cleminson) (copyright 1980 Nazsongs ltd.) all rights reserved.

Dragged up, raised tough
Born a mistake Learned fast the golden rule Never give, just take Did no favors, gave no quarter You all know the story 'bout The lamb's broadway slaughter. Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Street wise, cat's eye's Showbusiness smile Lookin' for today's mark On the golden mile Book wise, movie eyed So cool dudes. Ain't gonna do no talking When they find out they been used. Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Got to make some time Go through the changes My whole life needs some rearrangin' Self styled reject Ambitious wisher Also ran life style Guaranteed user, like a, Campaign promise from a three time loser Got to make my move soon Because, beggars can't be choosers, So I'm, Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf (McCafferty, Cleminson, Charlton, Agnew, Sweet) (copyright 1980 Nazsongs ltd.) all rights reserved.

What you gonna do if the fashion changes
Have you got a good song, can you go on Will you be so strong you can rearrange it Will you still have the thought to rely on Will you cut your hair, do you dye it yellow Are you still the right flavor to be tasted Will you have your name in the Sunday papers Do you tell them you are straight or get wasted Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Did you ever think when you picked the front line Are you gonna back up on your promises Did you tell the folks you could make the changes Are you gonna play it different than the last one You got the address and you got the power Are you gonna use it right or abuse it Taking all the trust that you know you뭨e given Are you gonna play the game or just lose it Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you have the looks Do you have the profile Do you have your fingerprints or a record If they come to you for some information Looking for a secret would you sell one Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do Do you think about it, do you think about it Do you think about it, I뭠l bet you do |

When the sun crashes into your world
Look around and you try and find your girl And you’re daring, too sick of what you see Out of town is the only place to be When your life starts to run out of juice Feel like dyin’ and you just want to get loose Prayin’ moves don’t make much sense to you Seeing red before your feeling is blue Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn Going back, getting out of this town Stretch it lean and mean, it turns you around Take your dreams and stretch them out on the street Take your turn to get back on your feet Feel the wheels singin’ over the ridge Feel the song like "Oakland" take you All the time you knew you had the itch All the girls were glad to see you Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn Girl in ol’ “V” won’t pray Don’t give you a hard time All the girls from Brooklyn say Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn Do you remember the day you left the block Your mama said you would live to regret it Coming home, coming stoned, come in hope, coming ready Are you holding steady Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn |

It seems to me I’ve heard that song before
Far off in some distant land Or it may have been upon some foreign shore Burning in my heart again I’ve seen the sounds and I have felt the air Drumming in my dreams again Deja vu I don’t know now or then Enemy or maybe friend Oh but for the love of freedom Oh but for the love of you I would never, ever have seen this day So please forgive me if I weep no more For friends and lovers far away There’s been too many times to hear the names Of friends who have stayed away Maybe now and then you still recall the pain As though it was yesterday Oh but for the love of freedom Oh but for the love of you I would never, ever have seen this day So please forgive me if I weep no more For friends and lovers far away For friends and lovers far away |

Light with the mornings goes
I live a long, forgotten shadow Love with the morning goes And what to do I just don’t know The moon is on the run Another day to up and lay low Maddogs and noonday sun I need the darkness to show Moondance.....Moondance There goes a setting sun That’s when we turn from strobe to struttin’ Turn on the city lights ‘Cause you know I’m moody blue Moondance....moondance The women shadow box They’re dancing tough but the ice is melting The music gives what it’s got The moon is looking at you Moondance.....moondance......moondance |

Got to find a new place where I can hide from the rain I’ll wait for the weekend to get wasted and then Gonna get on up so I can fall down again Party down...party down....party down This world is crazy, everybody party down You bring the bottle baby I’ll bring the glass I’ll be the animal,you can be the class I know that memory that can shed us some light This kind of magic keeps me flyin’ all night Party down....party down....party down This world is crazy, let’s all party down I'm just tryin’ to feel better I just wanna feel better Don’t waste your life away Eeverybody party down Gonna shimmer my shoes on down to the red dog saloon Just waitin’ for the sunset to give way to the moon Been sleepin’ all day so I can party all night Hallucinating at the northern lights Party down....party down....party down (McCafferty, Agnew, Charlton, Sweet) 1984 Fool Circle Music |

I tried to hang on for as long as I could
But now I can see that it just ain’t no good Our love it has wasted Right down to the core Whatever we had We don’t have anymore You’ve got to get off a road to nowhere You’ve got to get off a road to nowhere Well I tried and I tried to make things work out right But I guess we’re two people who can’t help but fight Your eyes they are open And oh so are mine We both need our freedom Don’t you think it’s about time I’m trying to get off this road to nowhere I’m trying to get off this road to nowhere (lead) Thank you for the good times we’ve had in the past But we both know enough to know good times don’t last Baby you’re just no good for me And I’m no good for you Let’s not waste our time talkin’ We both know what to do We’ve got to get off this road to nowhere It’s time to get off this road to nowhere You’ve got to get off this road to nowhere We’ve got to get off this road to nowhere (Carol Goffin) Screen Gems - emi music |

She would never say where she came from
And yesterday don’t matter if it’s gone When the sun is bright Or on the darkest night No one knows.......she comes and goes chorus: Goodbye ruby tuesday Who could hang a name on you When you change with every new day Still I’m gonna miss you No question why she needs to be so free She’ll tell you it’s the only way to be She just can’t be chained To a life where nothing’s gained And nothing’s lost.......at such a cost chorus: There’s no time to lose I heard her say Cast your dreams before they slip away Tired all the time Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind Ain’t life unkind chorus: (4x) |

I’m just a body lost but my soul can be found How many miles to go How many miles to babylon I don’t know where to turn when answers all fade clear But I must find a place there’s only questions here How many miles to go How many miles to babylon How many miles to go How many miles to babylon I feel...feel like I’m on trial Who made a judge of you Are you this month’s messiah I am a fightin’ man tired of living under the gun But am I looking for love or am I looking to run How many miles to go How many miles to babylon How many miles to go How many miles to babylon I heard...I heard it on the wire That it’s all up to you Are you this month’s messiah How many miles to go How many miles to babylon |
