IS YOUR MAMA GONNA MISS YA?
I Might as well been blind, Thought I owned this world and all its time, Made up my mind not to love again, Live my life a single man. Lady Luck, she came my way, Turned my night into day. CHORUS 1: She went huff And blew my little house down. She went puff Ya, she spun me around. She played rough Ya, she took me to town. All I did was fool around And my whole world came tumblin' down. CHORUS 2: Is your mama gonna miss ya now you're gone? Is your mama gonna miss her little rollin' stone? Is mama gonna cry now she's alone? 'Cause mama's little girl ain't goin' home! Ya, she's gone with me. I couldn't be found, couldn't be heard. You couldn't trap this free bird. I loved to fly shoulda heard me sing, You came along and flapped your wings. Had my eyes on the road, foot on the floor, Tell me "Hey, who's that knockin' at my door?" CHORUS 1 All I did was fool around And my whole world came crumblin' down. CHORUS 2 I said stop and she said go, Looks so good I can't say no. Now we've gone and lost control ...
HEY HONEY, I'M PACKIN' YOU IN!
Had enough of your crazy ways, Had enough of your leavin' for days, Don't wanna hear you waggin' your chin, Sick'n'tired of your noisy din, Don't want another kick on the shin, Hey honey, I'm packin' you in! Had enough of your faddy diets, I can't wait for a real good fry up. I'm gettin' bored of microwave cookin' And you tellin' me how awful I'm lookin'. Don't wanna hear how you gotta be thin. Hey honey, I'm packin' you in! CHORUS: I Don't wanna be the joke of the party, I just wanna be back where I started. I'm gettin' out before the goin' gets grim. Hey honey, I'm packin' you in! Had enough of your hangin' round bars And crashin' up my favourite car, Sick'n'tired of this and that and ya askin' for favours And usin' up my brand new razors, Don't want another cut on my chin, Hey honey, I'm packin' you in! CHORUS No point in hangin' around with a restless heart, Don't wanna let you down, But I'm blowin' this town For a brand new start. I want out, you want in, Forget about that weddin' ring! Had enough of your hand in the till, Sick'n'tired of your credit card bills. Get on back to your next of kin, Hey honey, ...
CAN'T STOP THIS THING WE STARTED
You might stop a hurricane, Might even stop the drivin' rain. You might have a dozen other guys, But if you wanna stop me, baby, don't even try. I'm goin' one way, your way. It's such a strong way. Let's make it our way. CHORUS: Can't stop this thing we started, You gotta know it's right. Can't stop this course we've plotted. This thing called love, we got it, No place for the broken hearted. Can't stop this thing we started, No way, I'm goin' your way! You might stop the world spinnin' round, Might even walk on holy ground. I ain't superman and I can't fly, But if you want to stop me, baby, don't even try. I'm goin' one way, your way. It's such a strong way. Let's make it our way. CHORUS Ooh, why take it slow. I gotta know 'Cause nothin' can stop This thing that we got.
THOUGHT I'D DIED AND GONE TO HEAVEN
Love is forever, As I lie awake beside you I believed there's no heaven, No hideaway for the lonely. But I was wrong, crazy, It's gotta be strong, it's gotta be right. CHORUS: Only wanted to stay a while, Only wanted to play a while, Then you taught me to fly like a bird. Baby, thought I'd died and gone to heaven, Such a night I never had before. Thought I'd died and gone to heaven 'Cause what I got there ain't no cure for. Oh, it's so easy What you do to me all night, angel. I never loved, swear to god, Never needed no one till you came along But here I come, baby, It's gotta be strong, it's gotta be right. CHORUS I feel fast asleep, I feel drunk, I dream the sweetest dreams, never wanna wake up. Never thought it could be this way. No doubt about it, can't live without it. Never thought it could be this good, You made love to me the way it oughta be.
NOT GUILTY
Who are you to say that I am wrong? Who are you to say I'm crazy? Ain't a crime of passion just comin' on strong, I'm only tryin' to treat you like a lady and I can't help myself. Do I have to prove my innocence? Don't need a lawyer with a fat degree 'Cause if lovin' you is against the law, Then you better lock me up and throw away the key. Oh, gonna take it to the jury. Oh, gonna nail it to the wall. Oh, gonna fight, I'm gonna prove it. Oh, so let the hammer fall. I'm not guilty, baby, I'm not, I can't stop this feelin' I got. I'm not guilty, cross my heart, Not my fault if I'm fallin' apart. But I'm alright Jack Justa watchin' my back. I'm not guilty. I'm not guilty. Won't serve no sentence, won't do no time, Won't cha listen to my plea? Yeah, the verdict is I'm doin' fine 'Cause the love police are lookin' out for me. Oh, I'm gonna get a witness. Oh, I'm gonna write it on the wall. Oh, this is a dirty old business. Oh yeah, let the hammer fall. I'm not guilty, baby, I'm not, I can't stop this feelin' I got. I'm not guilty, cross my heart, Don't blame me if I'm fallin' apart. But I'm alright Jack Justa watchin' my back. I'm not guilty. I'm not guilty. She'll break your heart, She'll take your mind, She'll steal your soul. She's everything, She's a school boy's dream, She's rock'n'roll. She's a knock out combination. It's a sticky situation.
VANISHING
People all over build on solid ground, They build it up and then they tear it down. Take it or leave it, who cares how much it costs, They'll never know how much is gone until it's lost, Till it's vanishing. Think I hear thunder, ain't no sign of rain, Danger signs flashin' in my brain. Ridin' on empty, lights are turnin' red, There ain't no lovin' left in this empty bed. Yeah, it's vanishing. We're sittin' on treasure, Call it sacred ground, Why look for more, babe, When it's right here to be found. Never gonna lose you, You know I'm gonna fight, This thing's worth savin', girl, Ya know we'll make it right If it takes all night. CHORUS: Gonna swim your sea, Gonna sail your ocean, Gonna shake your tree, Gonna climb your mountain, Gonna shine your light, Wanna row your river, darlin', If it takes all night. People all over built mansions in the sky, They choke on smoke and watch their dreams go by. When the phone stops ringin', love has surely died, But the grass is greener, babe, on the other side. Never wanna lose you, You know I'm gonna fight, Never said it'd be easy, girl, Ya know we'll make it right If it takes all night. CHORUS You're gonna miss me when I'm gone, Whatcha gonna do Without a shoulder to lean on, You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
HOUSE ARREST
Well, there's gonna be a party, gonna make some noise, Yeah, we're invitin' all the girls, invitin' all the boys. There'll be dancin' on the tables, dancin' on the chairs, Ya, there'll be dancin' in the parkin' lots and up and down the stairs. Alright. Close the windows, lock the doors, Turn it up now, pack the floors. Cops are on the outside, landlord's on the phone, Quick, turn out all the lights, pretend there's no one home. CHORUS: It's a house arrest, everybody run, I gotta plead guilty havin' too much fun. This is a house arrest, up against the wall, We can't stop rockin' justa havin' a ball, one and all. Won't you come around to my place, don't cha know it's overdue? You gotta bring your little lady, wear your dancin' shoes. Get a yellow taxi, take a limousine, You gotta get there, it's gonna be a scene. It's too late, can't wait, Get out while you can. It was fun while it lasted, Let's do it all again. CHORUS We been wakin' up the neighbours, Bouncin' off the walls, Hangin' off the ceilings, We'll be dancin' in and out of the hall. This is a house arrest, everybody run, Gotta plead guilty havin' too much fun. This is a house arrest ...!
DO I HAVE TO SAY THE WORDS?
Rescue me from the mire, Whisper words of desire, Rescue me, darlin', rescue me. With your arms open wide Want you here by my side, Come to me, darlin', rescue me. When this world's closin' in, There's no need to pretend, Set me free, darlin', rescue me. I don't wanna let you go, So I'm standin' in your way. I never needed anyone Like I'm needin' you today. Do I have to say the words? Do I have to tell the truth? Do I have to shout it out? Do I have to say a prayer? Must I prove to you how good we are together? Do I have to say the words? Rescue me from despair, Tell me you will be there, Rescue me, darlin', rescue me. Every dream that we share, Every cross that we bear, Come to me, darlin', rescue me.
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER TONIGHT
Put on your best dress, darlin', Can't you see the time is right? There will never be another tonight. If you got your motor runnin', Then I got my engines on, Say the word, and darlin', we'll be gone. Outside the world is waitin', But we won't lose control, So come on now, let the good times roll. You gotta ride your broom right into my room, Kick off your shoes and make yourself at home, Wave a little wand, weave a little spell, Make a little magic, raise some hell. There will never be another tonight, C'mon baby, hold on tight. There will never be another tonight, I don't care if it's wrong or right, We got nothin' to lose, Just me and you, In your wildest dreams ... There'll never be another tonight. Who cares about tomorrow? Let the wind fill your sails, A runaway train aridin' all the way. We got our bases loaded, Homerun - powerplay, Tonight's the night, we're goin' all the way. You gotta ride your broom right into my room, Kick off your shoes and make yourself at home, Wave a little wand, weave a little spell, Make a little magic, raise some hell. There will never be another tonight, C'mon baby, hold on tight. There will never be another tonight, Flash your diamonds, shine your light, There will never be another tonight, I don't care if it's wrong or right, We got nothin' to lose, Just me and you, In your wildest dreams ... There'll never be another tonight. Some people, they're lookin' for paradise, Others they're searchin' for inner light, But me, I'm just havin' the time of my life, I'm headin' out to check it out, check it out!
ALL I WANT IS YOU
Don't want diamonds, Don't want gold, Don't want fashion, baby, Don't wanna be cool. Don't wanna hustle Just to get thru, When it all comes down, babe, All I want is you. Don't wanna argue, Don't wanna fight, Don't want no politics, baby, All through the night. I told you before, Gonna tell you once more, For the last time, baby, Open up your door. All I want is you, All I want is you. Not any old girl will do. All I want is you. If ya don't need love, ya gotta be nuts, The heaviest metal always rusts. You and me, babe, hangin' tough, It's gotta be, it's gotta be, it's gotta be love or bust! Don't need a doctor, Don't need a nurse, Don't need a prescription, Only make me feel worse. Don't need a licence, Don't need insurance, Don't need a ticket where we're goin', baby, You got my insurance.
DEPEND ON ME
When you're losin' direction, Baby, you can depend on me. For a little love and affection, Baby, you can depend on me. If you feel broken-hearted And you just can't get started, You can depend on me. You know it's never easy The way we're feelin' blue, There'll be times you feel so empty, Yeah, sometimes I feel it too. CHORUS: Like sister to brother, Father to mother, We live for each other, We're lover to lover. As deep as an ocean Filled with emotion, We're forever open, Can't you see, Baby, you can depend on me, Depend on me, depend on me. For someone to rely on And a shoulder to cry on, You can depend on me. If you're in need of some kindness And you can't seem to find it, You can depend on me. There ain't no need to worry, You know we'll get along. Those dark clouds may surround you, But together we'll be strong. CHORUS Your love is a guidin' light, I've been watchin' it shine, Shine on, baby. When hard times are all around, And there's miles and miles of dirty road, Depend on me. There's no need to carry that heavy lodad, Depend on me. When hope is gone and all is lost, Just reach out, take my hand. I'll be there, I'll be your man, Depend on me.
(EVERYTHING I DO ) I DO IT FOR YOU
Look into my eyes, you will see What you mean to me. Search your heart, search your soul And when you find me there, you'll search no more. Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for. You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for. You know it's true Everything I do I do it for you. Look into my heart, you will find There's nothin' there to hide. So take me as I am, take my life. I would give it all, I would sacrifice. Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for. I can't help it, there's nothin' I want more. You know it's true Everything I do I do it for you.

IF YOU WANNA LEAVE ME (CAN I COME TOO?)
You can't stand still for a moment, You can't stand still for a night, Your feet starta move when it's borin', You gotta stick around to get it right. So get it right. You can't find love in the kitchen, You walk the dark side of the street, You can't find any hope in religion, Ya gotta feel the road under your feet. I'm gonna shed a little light, I'm gonna love you every night, We'll get it right, Get it right. If you wanna leave me, can I come too? If you wanna leave me, gonna go with you. And if you say no, I'm still gonna go, If you wanna leave me, can I come too?

TOUCH THE HAND
Stand up If ya wanna fight, I'm tellin' all the women Stand up for your rights. If ya wanna wear the trousers, Ya wanna act like a man, I'd love to trade your places, I'd love to be your thang. I'd do all the shopping, Collect your favourite suit, Press all the laundry, Polish all your boots, And if you brought me flowers, I'll meet you at the door, Have your dinner ready, Your slippers on the floor. And when day turns to night And you feel alright And I turn out the lights Touch the hand of the man who'll make ya woman. Touch the hand of the man who'll make it right. Touch the hand of the man who'll make ya woman 'Cause when day turns to night And you feel alright And I turn out the lights. Stand up, It's alright, Love to play the woman, Love to play your wife, Light your favourite cigarette, Pour your favourite drink, Wear your best apron, Wash the dishes in the sink, Read your bedtime stories While you take a nap, Turn out the TV, Put out the cat. But when day turns to night And you feel alright And I turn out the lights ...
DON'T DROP THAT BOMB ON ME
We sailed our ships upon the shores That once were out of reach, Turned the silence into war And bloodied up the beach, Trashed the forests and the trees Till there's nothin' left to cut. We raped the rivers and the seas And turned the land to dust. It goes on and on, on and on ... Does anybody know what's goin' on, Can anybody tell me where we went wrong, Can anyone say why wrong is right, If we wanna little peace, well, we got to fight. Can anyone say things are lookin' good, Just take a look 'Round your neighbourhood, The world's gone crazy. CHORUS: Crash, we can fight it, Crash, we gotta try, Crash, we can't hide it, Gotta stop that fire. Don't drop that bomb on me, Save that little tree, Don't drop that bomb on me, Save our seven seas, Don't drop it, don't drop it, Don't drop that bomb on me. Should every little thing Have a life to give? Will every little child Have a place to live? Does anybody feel Just a little bit scared? Isn't it about time Everybody care? The world's gone crazy. CHORUS If you're gonna talk that talk, You gotta walk that walk. If you're gonna fly that flag, You gotta shake a leg. Yeah, everybody should try 'Cause we are much too young to die. |
