Hand me that reefer
I don't believe her
It's the only way to fly
Keep me on moving
And I'll let you groovin'
To keep me flying high
What am I supposed to do?
My legs are through and my mind is too
Got me taking my time
And I've been doing it right
Cuz it's your man and your man is down the line
Got me pretending
Nights are never ending
Gotta believe me
I'll show you the way to fly
What am I supposed to do?
My legs are through and my mind is too
Got me taking my time
And I've been doing it right
Cuz it's your man and your man is down the line
Ain't it the best time
To take it slow?
I heard a jam on the radio
Sweet kiss, piece of this
Just for you
I've got to know now
Will you be my baby?
To keep me satisfied
Ain't it the best time
To take it slow?
I heard a jam on the radio
Sweet kiss, piece of this
Just for you
Ain't it the best time
To take it slow?
I heard a jam on the radio

Talking money
Everybody
Ain't it dirty?
Holy water
Aha aha aha aha
I've seen bigger losers upon the rise
That didn't mind cheating nor playing it nice
Throwing it all away out of a white Cadillac,
Turned himself in while having a heart attack
Talking money
Everybody
Ain't it dirty?
Holy water
Aha aha aha aha
Big old fortress upon the hill
He became the king cuz he's paying the bill
But one day that man went crazy of power
Took all his money, threw it right down the tower
Don't you run
Don't you hide
Don't you flee from me
You ought to tell the truth even if you don't know why
Lay it on me honey, cuz my love just died
Don't ya wanna know what happened in Japan?
When she laid her hands on another man
Talking money
Everybody
Ain't it dirty?
Holy water
Aha aha aha aha
Money, have me
Don't you run
Don't you hide
Don't you run
Don't you hide
Talking money
Ain't it dirty
Talking money
Ain't it dirty
Give me one more time
Give me one more dime

Lucky Charm
02:48
|

|
Wherever I go I’ll always got your lucky charm
Wherever I may go, wherever I may be
And wherever I run, wherever I try to hide
I know I got your lucky charm right here by my side
But I know I’ve been misleading you
Yes, I’ve been mistreading you
No, I didn’t plead that I was wrong
So here’s my sincere apology
That you had to find me gone
Though in my darkest night I know you’ll shine your light
Piercing through the night sky, so clear and so bright
And whoever I find, whoever tries to do me harm
I know I’ll be alright for I have your lucky charm
But I know I’ve been neglecting you
Never protected you
What you suspected is true
But you know your ways around a spell
Oh, you used your magic well
Ah, you don’t believe me
Yes, you deceive me
You’re calling me a thieve of your love
But I don’t want your love babe
Oh, for god’s sake
I don’t want your love babe
I’ve had enough baby
All I want babe, is to have your lucky charm

Sweet Love
04:15

Going on and on about
The sounds and shapes of life without you, baby
In my mind’s a thing or two
I just gotta say to you, so let me
A little taste of something new
A different way of loving you
Shine and shine from time to time
But I will throw myself a line, back in
Give me your sweet love, honey
I’ll give it right back to you
Give me your sweet love, honey
You know I love you, do you?
I have tried to figure out
The voices speak so very loud
My foot’s outside the door you see
But I’ll be back for more, trust me
Give me your sweet love, honey
I’ll give it right back to you
Give me your sweet love, honey
You know I love you, do you?
I’ll tell it like it is
It’ll only hurt just a little bit
I know it’s hard, let me hold you tight
It’s alright, alright, alright, alright
Baby won’t you lay your head
Let me take you home to bed
Good night
Twelve feet tall the trees they cast their
Dark and mighty shadows wide, what a sight
I’ve been round your neighboorhood
Sitting on the benches in the park
You know that I’d be back again
When the evening sky grew dark
Give me your sweet love, honey
I’ll give it right back to you
Give me your sweet love, honey
You know I love you, do you?

There are too many colors in the sun for me to see the light
Too much noise in the wind for me to hear
Too many peaks in the tall green grass
Too many shades of the rainbow
Baby I don’t want you to go
That’s all I really know
There’s a man who’s seen the world through a thousand eyes
He knows every way there is that leads to paradise
Every passage through every mountain range
Every bridge, every tunnel
The sun shows him kindly her light
Within his line of sight
Well, have you been? I have asked him
No, he said, but I will in time
When I find a way that’s mine
The windows rattle, the treetops whistle, the wind must sure be mad
A sunbeam tangles with the shaking leaves that today have all turned red
It doesn’t really matter what colors I see
I know your light will shine on me
No, baby I don’t want you to go
That’s all I really know
There are so many colors in the sun that make me see the light
Through all the noise in the wind I hear so clear
All I got, all I feel inside
Every sunset, every dawn
I want to spend them with you
That’s all I wanna do
Baby I don’t want you to go
That’s all I really know

Yours & Mine
02:54

When the night slips in
And my lights dim low
I keep my eyes on Ruth
Wherever she goes
Cuz you've got a place in my heart
And i've got a place in yours too
Place in my heart
And i've got a place in yours too
Sweet wandering mind
I'll keep you close to mine
One day we'll drive away
I can hear you sing
You've got a place in my heart
And I've got a place in yours
A place in my heart
And I've got a place in yours too
Whenever I come back home
Whenever I come back home
And I lay my head to rest
Underneath a pine tree
Cuz you've got a place in my heart
And I've got a place in yours
Place in my heart
And I've got a place in yours too

Gas To Carry On
03:54
|

|
People all got troubles
I don't mind I've got my own
Doesn't make a man heartless
Just makes him care of his own
To see the sun in your face
And the troubles to keep in mind
Troubles to erase
And troubles to make alright
You make the travels
Others sell the tale
Hear me, dear stranger
May you ride forever
I don't beg to differ
I don't plan to act strange
One day you're the man
And the other you make mistakes
You make the travels
Others sell the tale
Hear me, dear stranger
May you ride forever
Drive all day and work all night
Make sure to keep it tight
No matter the number of tries
No matter how hard the fall
Beautiful lady
To make you feel right at home
Got friends right beside you
And the gas to carry on
You make the travels
Others sell the tale
Hear me, dear stranger
May you ride forever

How Come
03:32
|

|
How come you don’t look me in the eye?
How come you’re telling stories twice?
I know many people make a fool out of themselves
But I never had a front row seat
How come the backdoor wasn’t locked?
How come you don’t speak when you talk?
I know many people make a fool out of themselves
But I never had a front row seat
I know many people make a fool out of me
But baby you got me beat
Oh, I’ve seen many souls
They live their lives
Like a melody that no one figures out
But you just took a drive with me
And you left me there about
I know many people make a fool out of me
I never suffered such a terrible defeat
How come you lead me on this way?
How come you got the nerve to stay?
I know many people make a fool out of themselves
I know many people make a fool out of him
I know many people make a fool out of me
I know I’m a fool, but I’m not blind

Hood Ornament
02:45
|

|
I thought I saw you along the roadside this morning
Long black wavy hair and a banging smile
Well but it could’ve been anybody
I looked, you had gone
I had passed, you were out of sight
You’ve been on my mind these days
Now I can’t get nothing done
How can I be promoting you
When it’s been so long
Ah, when I saw you in the rain this morning
Strip off your plastic mac and get in the car
Ah, but in that flash I stepped on the gas
I knew I could not let you in
So I let it out
You’ve been on my mind these years
And it’s been slowing me down
How can I be moving on
When you’re still around
I passed you by on the street last night
The evening sun shown kindly down my hood ornament, yeah

Eagle One

Two songs, fifteen dollars in my pocket
Drifting on like a boat without sails
Hope we make the shows out on the weekend
I’ve got so much to tell you when I get back
Good times
Are passing by my window
Get out and make your life whole
One trip to the valley of the lady
She broke my heart once and I'll know that she'll try twice
Never seen the sunrise over the ocean
But I’ve seen him drown many a times
Good times are passing by my window
Get out and make your life whole
Good times are passing by my window
Sitting in the back seat, looking at the blossoming fields
Change it, go on and change it
Good times are passing by my window
Get out and make your life whole
Good times are passing by my window
Sitting in the back seat looking at the blossoming fields
Change it, go on and change it

What A Feeling Can't Do

Hello my old friend
Think about the fun that we had
Ooh, what a feeling won't do
Yeah the drink in my right
Well liquor can't be my friend
Ooh, I'm lonely through and through
How I wish I was beside you
But it ain't gonna happen now
Yeah I just had a vision
My pretty face on the television
Ooh, what stars can't do
I'll be rich and I'll be fine
Come on over I got all the wine
Ooh, what money won't do
How I wish I was beside you
But it ain't gonna happen now
How I was I was beside you
But it ain't gonna happen now
Cuz she said
My heart is racing around
My heart is racing around
My heart is racing around
Don't mind me changing no
Sweet baby tell me now
Do you think about me at all?
I'll be always looking out for you
With my head behind prison bars
Ooh, I'll be missing you
Ooh, I'll be missing you
Ooh, I'll be missing
