A Case of Survival

(chorus)
Well it's getting' late now
I've really got to be goin'
The longer I stay
The harder it gets
If I can't quit this place
You know I never will
'Till I'm layin' down in my grave

My mama told me
This life is so lonely
You might spend all of your days
Lookin' for some company
I've got forty-five reasons
Why I should be leavin'
But this night life keeps on beggin' me to stay

(chorus)
Well it's getting' late now
I've really got to be goin'
The longer I stay
The harder it gets
If I can't quit this place
You know I never will
'Till I'm layin' down in my grave

Now the evening's ended
And I'm lying in my bed
Feelin' a little bit more sober
Got a great big pain in my head
Don't want to face tomorrow
Another day filled up with sorrow
I know I owe it all to myself

(chorus)
Well it's getting' late now
I've really got to be goin'
The longer I stay
The harder it gets
If I can't quit this place
You know I never will
'Till I'm layin' down in my grave

Well it's two a.m.
Yeah, I'm movin' kinda slow
It's just a dirty old bar room
Cigarette butts on the floor
It's a case of survival
And pretty soon I'm liable
To be fallin' flat down
To be fallin' flat down
To be fallin' flat down on my face

All Through the Night
(from Dirty Business)

It's been a long, and dirty road
Now we've gone separate ways
I know it's hard, it hurts so much
But let's try to keep in touch

(chorus)
And it's ok, yeah, it's all right
'Cause the love we had
Lasted through the night
All through the night
All through the night

It's been a while, it's been so long
Since we walked hand in hand
But it's another day, and another time
And you're still a friend of mine

(chorus)
And it's ok, yeah, it's all right
'Cause the love we had
Lasted through the night
All through the night
All through the night

I'm not sorry that it's over
It won't ever be the same
We had such good times together
And it don't matter who's to blame

(chorus)
And it's ok, yeah, it's all right
'Cause the love we had
Lasted through the night
All through the night
All through the night

Sometimes we play, foolish games
And even try to hurt each other
But it's another day, and another time
And you're still a friend of mine

(chorus)
And it's ok, yeah, it's all right
'Cause the love we had
Lasted through the night
All through the night
All through the night
And it's ok, yeah, it's all right
'Cause the love we had
Lasted through the night
All through the night
All through the night

Big Mistake

Oh honey I miss you
And I long to be with you
Now why do you treat me this-a-way
I hurt your feelin's
And now you're leavin'
Oh babe, what can I say

(chorus)
Well I'm so lonely, for my one and only
Oh why did she ever go away
And every evenin', I get this feelin'
I must have made a big mistake

Oh honey please come back
I'll help you unpack
Now don't break up our happy home
Your lips I'm kissin'
Is what I'm wishin'
Oh please, call me on the phone

(chorus)
Well I'm so lonely, for my one and only
Oh why did she ever go away
And every evenin', I get this feelin'
I must have made a big mistake

It's getting' late now
I think I'll lay down
And just pretend my baby's back
I wonder what she's doin'
I'll bet she's .....
Oh no, she wouldn't do that

(chorus)
Well I'm so lonely, for my one and only
Oh why did she ever go away
And every evenin', I get this feelin'
I must have made a big mistake
I must have made a big mistake
I must have made a big mistake

Coffee Buzz
(from Dirty Business)

I get up in the mornin', and I put on the pot

Have another cup of coffee, and I always say ok   

I want that coffee buzz   (coffee buzz)
I need that coffee buzz   (coffee buzz)

They say it's tearin' up my stomach, you know I really ought to quit
But if I don't get my coffee, think I'll throw a screamin' fit
Now I don't smoke tobacco, and I don't drink alcohol
But if I don't get my coffee man, I'm climin' on the wall

Hanalei Rainy Day Blues
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

I got those Hanalei rainy day blues
Seems like the sun is never gonna shine again
It keeps on rainin' every day
I don't think these cloudy days will ever end

(chorus)
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna lose
These old Hanalei rainy day blues
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna lose
These old Hanalei rainy day blues

There's no place that I can go
This stayin' inside has really got the best of me
And there's nothing' much that I can do
Sunshine and blue skies are just a memory

(chorus)
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna lose
These old Hanalei rainy day blues
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna lose
These old Hanalei rainy day blues

My mood is just as gray as the sky
I'm just about as stir crazy as I can be
And everybody's feelin' the same way
We just wanna go out swimmin' in the sea

(chorus)
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna lose
These old Hanalei rainy day blues
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna lose
These old Hanalei rainy day blues

And I want you so much and I
I won't let go

I can't wait, I can't wait
For your love, for your love

Love To Rock and Roll
(from Dirty Business)

I've got a heart I've got a soul, and I love to rock and roll
I've got a heart I've got a soul, yes I love to rock and roll
Now when I rock and roll, well I just lose control

Oh my, my, my, how it makes me come alive

Maybe I'm In Love With You
(from Dirty Business)

Woke up this mornin', in a cold sweat
I think my stomach's been a little upset
Runnin' a fever of a hundred and three
I'm kinda getting, weak in the knees
I guess it could be, a touch of the flu
Or, maybe I'm in love with you

I think I've turned into a terminal case
I get so nervous, you give me the shakes
I must be crazy, must be outta my head
If this gets worse, then I'm better off dead
I guess it could be, a touch of the flu
Or, maybe I'm in love with you

I'm feelin' queasy, I can't eat a thing
I keep on waitin' for the phone to ring
My heart is poundin', it's out of control
Don't think that I can, take anymore
I guess it could be, a touch of the flu
Or, maybe I'm in love with you

Woke up this mornin', in a cold sweat
I think my stomach's been a little upset
Runnin' a fever of a hundred and three
I'm kinda getting, weak in the knees
I guess it could be, a touch of the flu
Or, maybe I'm in love with you
I guess it could be, a touch of the flu
Or, maybe I'm in love with you

Poison In the Wind
(from Tryin' to Find My Way)

What can I say
What can I do
You finally had your way
And it's comin' back to you

(chorus)
And they're puttin' poison in the wind
Yeah, they're puttin' poison in the wind
And they're puttin' poison in the wind
Yeah, they're puttin' poison in the wind

How can they do this crime
Must be getting near the end
It's just a matter of time
Don't know where or when

(chorus)
And they're puttin' poison in the wind
Yeah, they're puttin' poison in the wind
And they're puttin' poison in the wind

It's humanity's shame
Better put your gas masks on tight

'Cause they're puttin' poison in the wind
Yeah, they're puttin' poison in the wind
And they're puttin' poison in the wind
Yeah, they're puttin' poison in the wind

What if you had to choose
What would you hope to find

Would it be,
Poison in the wind
Poison in the wind
Poison in the wind
Poison in the wind

Snowblind

Somehow I just know that
She won't change her mind and stay
But tomorrow she'll come back to you
Is what all my friends say
I sit and cry all by myself
Ever since she went away
I can't believe that she's not here
Can't take it one more day

(chorus)
I must have been snowblind
I must have been snowblind
Why did she have to leave me
A good woman's so hard to find
I must have been half crazy
To have treated her unkind
I didn't mean to hurt her
I must have been snowblind

Now it's a sad, sad, story
And one you've heard before
I stayed out too late at night
Now she's walked on out the door
It's just too hard to face that
She doesn't love me any more
So I'll hide the tears, and numb the pain
At a price I can't afford

(chorus)
I must have been snowblind
I must have been snowblind
Why did she have to leave me
A good woman's so hard to find
I must have been half crazy
To have treated her unkind
I didn't mean to hurt her
I must have been snowblind

That's Not My Style
(from Tryin' to Find My Way)

This story began, back in '52
Came into this life, meant to sing the blues
I soon found out, I was out of luck
'Cause everybody was hustlin', just to make a buck
But that's not my style, no it's not my style
They're just playin' a game, and it's not my style

I went down, for my interview
Lookin' for a job, what can a poor boy do
Good money in the bank, thirty grand a year
If I'd cut my hair, said, "let me outta here"
That's not my style, no it's not my style
They're just playin' a game, and it's not my style

Just what's my problem, just what's my crime
Am I half-crazy lord, or am I half-blind
There must be somethin', worth more than gold
Now I'd rather be happy, 'stead of just growin' old
That's not my style, no it's not my style
They're just playin' a game, and it's not my style

This story began, back in '52
Came into this life, meant to sing the blues
I soon found out, I was out of luck
'Cause everybody was hustlin', just to make a buck
But that's not my style, no it's not my style
They're just playin' a game, and it's not my style

The Music Gets Me By

I'm sorry, can't say those words no more
You sent me an invitation
That I just could not afford
The past holds expectations
That are too hard to ignore
And I'm so busy doin' nothin'
Still don't know what fortunes I may find
The music gets me by

Tomorrow, you'd like me to explain
But what my dreams are made of
Is something I can't say
I've made some long beginnings
But I threw them all away
And I'll just keep on hopin'
That we'll find a way through all the lies
The music gets me by

Forgotten, the dreams of yesterday
My pain and all my sorrow
Just seems to melt away
They're sad things to remember
But we'll go on just the same
The river keeps on flowing
And it freezes every year in the wintertime
The music gets me by

Where Ya Runnin' To?
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

Hey, where ya runnin' to
What, have ya got to do
Don't cha think, think, think that it's a crime
How you've been runnin',
Yeah, you've been runnin', now for such a long, long time

Livin' in this part of town
You're always. always, always on your guard
Well, you've been workin'
Yeah, you've been workin', workin' way too hard
(workin' way too hard)

(chorus)
So what have you got to say
There's nothin' gettin' in the way
Let's go out and find some fun
Don't have to be the lonely one
Where are you runnin' to
Where are you runnin' to

Come and whisper, to me soft and low
And listen to the wind blow
Is there something, something, something we might find
Tell me, please tell me, what's been on your mind
(what's been on your mind)

Hey where ya runnin' to
What, have ya got to do
Don't cha think, think, think, that it's a crime
How you've been runnin'

Workin' Overtime
(from Dirty Business)

When I woke up this mornin', the clock was strikin' nine
Looked over at my woman, and she was lookin' oh so fine
I asked her how about it, can we make some romance
But she jumped up outta bed, and didn't even give me a chance

Well my baby's in such a hurry
She must be workin' overtime
Workin' overtime

I went down to the corner, to try and catch the bus
Everybody was pushin' and shovin', and makin' a great big fuss
Some guy cut right in front of me, said, "You better get out of my way
I ain't got no time to be wastin' on you today"

Ahh everybody's in such a hurry
They must be workin' overtime
Workin' overtime

I stopped into the café, you know, to get a little bit of food
The waitress that took my order, was actin' awful rude
I guess the guy before me, didn't leave her any tip
But I don't see why I should put up with, any of her great big lip

I guess she's just in a hurry
She must be workin' overtime
Workin' overtime

One thing that's for certain, We've got no time to lose
And sometimes we all get worried, and sometimes we get confused
But if you get in such a hurry, that you can't enjoy your health
You might as well just give it up, 'cause you're cheatin' on yourself
Don't be in such a hurry
You might be workin' overtime
Workin' overtime

When I woke up this mornin', the clock was strikin' nine
Looked over at my woman, and she was lookin' oh so fine
I asked her how about it, can we make some romance
But she jumped up outta bed, and didn't even give me a chance

Well my baby's in such a hurry
She must be workin' overtime
Workin' overtime

Yeah she's just workin', workin' overtime
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Yeah she's just working, workin' overtime
Too busy for me
My baby's just workin', workin' overtime
Doesn't know what she's missin' yeah
And she's just workin', workin' overtime
Oh yeah

Adrift On the Water
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

You know I'm no good out on my own
And I need your love to carry me home
I'm like a ship that's lost out at sea
And I'll be adrift on the water
If you ever turn away from me

(chorus)
Yes I'll be, adrift on the water
And I'll be, adrift on the water
Yes I'll be adrift on the water
Without you my love, my love
Yes I'll be adrift on the water
And I'll be adrift on the water
Yes I'll be, driftin' on the water
Without you my love

I know I've sailed too far from the shore
Because I can't see your face anymore
I think that trouble's closin' in
And I'll be adrift on the water
If you never come back again

(chorus)
Yes I'll be, adrift on the water
And I'll be, adrift on the water
Yes I'll be adrift on the water
Without you my love, my love
Yes I'll be adrift on the water
And I'll be adrift on the water
Yes I'll be, driftin' on the water
Without you my love

Our love is like the wind and the waves
Sometimes there's good, sometimes bad days
But we must try to ride out the storm
'Cause I'll be adrift on the water
Without your love to carry me home

(chorus)
Yes I'll be, adrift on the water
And I'll be, adrift on the water
Yes I'll be adrift on the water
Without you my love, my love
Yes I'll be adrift on the water
And I'll be adrift on the water
Yes I'll be, driftin' on the water
Without you my love

Back Home

My baby says now don't ya know
It's time to come on back home
You've been gone away now much too long
You're travelin' around all in your head
And yet you ain't been gone
Time for you to come on back home
To right now

(chorus)
Well it's gonna be alright
And we can sleep tonight
There ain't no need to fight
I know
That the love's gonna grow

My baby says that things are gonna change somehow
Yet they're gonna stay just the same
Looks like the spirit's gonna come on out
We don't wanna give it any name
'Cause it's all the same

(chorus)
Well it's gonna be alright
And we can sleep tonight
There ain't no need to fight
That way, I'm afraid
That love's here to stay

We'll make the best of what we've got
Even if it ain't a lot
We're dealin' in reality
The time will come when we'll be free
So try to satisfy your needs
And fight for what's right in between
When you've found that you're on your own
You've made it
Back home

(chorus)
Well it's gonna be alright
And we can sleep tonight
There ain't no need to fight
That way
We won't fight today

Blues In Paradise
(from Blues in Paradise)

We'll find the blues up in heaven
Ya know, it could be as cold as ice
Or, we'll find the blues down in the other place
Where they don't treat ya nice
The blues are all around us
No matter where we go
I'd rather leave them all behind
By now I hope you know

(chorus)
That there's blues in paradise
There's blues in paradise for sure
Don't try to run away
Better take my advice
Because there's blues in paradise

Well you could fly out on a rocket ship
Or move to Mexico
You could swim out to an island
It don't matter where you go
You could hide out in the jungle
Or, cruise a shoppin' mall
They'll catch you if you're runnin'
They'll shoot you if you fall

(chorus)
That there's blues in paradise
There's blues in paradise for sure
Don't try to run away
Better take my advice
Because there's blues in paradise

We'll find the blues up in heaven
Bet you didn't think we would
They'll be waitin' there already
Or in the neighborhood
Or I may bring them with me
So I must apologize
I really didn't mean to
But I hope you realize

(chorus)
That there's blues in paradise
There's blues in paradise for sure
Don't try to run away
Better take my advice
Because there's blues in paradise

Dirty Business
(from Dirty Business)

Well I've been workin', to make the grade
And there's been a lot, of promises made
Who can tell, what lies in between
Well you don't want to see, what I've seen

(chorus)
It's a dirty business, my friend
Yes it's a dirty business, 'till the end
Well it gets harder, along the way
Yes it's a dirty business, that's what I say

Are you my friend, or in disguise
Truth gets lost, down in your eyes
Is this a game, or is this a show
Don't look too closely , 'cause you don't want to know

(chorus)
It's a dirty business, my friend
Yes it's a dirty business, 'till the end
Well it gets harder, along the way
Yes it's a dirty business, that's what I say

Power and money, and double deals
Don't look behind you, 'cause they're right on your heals
Take what you want, and it'll be ok
Just don't let your conscience, get in your way

(chorus)
It's a dirty business, my friend
Yes it's a dirty business, 'till the end
And it gets harder, along the way
Well it's a dirty business, that's what I say
And it's a dirty business, that's what I say
Oh it's a dirty business, that's what I say

Don't Say That You Don't Love Me
(from Dirty Business)

Don't say that you don't love me
Now if you really do
Don't say that you don't need me now baby
'Cause I know it isn't true
Don't say that it's the end
And keep comin' back again

Don't say that you don't want me
'Cause I know that it's a lie
Don't say that you don't want me now baby
When you're tryin' not to cry
Don't bet on a pair of   2's
If ya can't afford to lose

Don't say you're gonna leave me
Unless you really plan to go
Don't say you're gonna leave me now baby
'Cause I think that we both know
Don't you turn to walk away
When you really want to stay

Don't say that you don't love me
Now if you really do
Don't say that you don't need me now baby
'Cause I know it isn't true
Don't say that it's the end
And keep comin' back again
Don't say that it's the end
And keep comin' back again

Gonna Do It Anyway
(from Relax Your Mind)

Well I don't know what I'm doin', but I'm gonna do it anyway
Yes I don't know what I'm doin', but I'm gonna do it anyway
'Cause it's just the way I'm feelin', and I don't care what they say

There's a hundred different reasons, why I should stay on the right track
Yes there's a hundred different reasons, why I should stay on the right track
But ridin' on that mainline, feels like a monkey on my back

Everybody's in such a hurry, ah but they don't know why
Everybody's in such a hurry, but they don't know why
They're just workin' their lives away, don't even have time enough to cry

So I'm goin' down to Mississippi, just to sing and play some blues
Yes I'm goin' down to Mississippi, just to sing and play some blues
If you want to know the reason, it's 'cause I've got nothin' better to do

Well I don't know what I'm doin', but I'm gonna do it anyway
Yes I don't know what I'm doin', but I'm gonna do it anyway
'Cause it's just the way I'm feelin', and I don't care what they say
'Cause it's just the way I'm feelin', and I don't care what they say
'Cause it's just the way I'm feelin', and I don't care what they say

How Far I Might Go
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

I love to go sailing
Out over the sea
With the feel of the wind and the water
It's just like bein' free
And I'm glad to be livin'
Here on the islands today
'Cause I know that this tropical breeze
Has come to carry me away

(chorus)
And there ain't no tellin'
Which way the wind will blow
And I guess that I'll just never know
How far I might go
How far I might go

The konas come from the southside
And the trades come from up north
If I'm careful to keep my headin'
I can still keep on course
My life's a lot like sailin'
Have to find my own way
And it doesn't really matter
What other people say

(chorus)
And there ain't no tellin'
Which way the wind will blow
And I guess that I'll just never know
How far I might go
How far I might go

Turquoise blue of the water
With the coral down below
Sometimes you can see the humpbacks
Puttin' on a show
And yesterday I got married
Now I have a wife
Our love is like the ocean
Always changing and full of life

(chorus)
And there ain't no tellin'
Which way the wind will blow
And I guess that I'll just never know
How far I might go
How far I might go

I Gave Myself Away
(from Tryin' to Find My Way)

Sometimes I feel like such a clown
Don't even know which way is up or down
I want to tell you, you give me a thrill
You almost make my heart stand still
Then you look right into my eyes
And I don't feel quite so paralyzed
And it's ok, yeah it's ok

(chorus)
I gave myself away, yes I did, you know I did
I gave myself away, yes I did, yes I did

I get so tired of this same old stuff
Always tryin' somehow to act too tough
I have to wonder just what's goin' on
Seems like everything just takes so long
Maybe it wouldn't all be so hard
If I could just once let down my guard
It'd be ok, yeah it'd be ok

(chorus)
I gave myself away, yes I did, you know I did
I gave myself away, yes I did, yes I did

Might as well admit it to myself
Can't keep putting things up on the shelf
These feelings are so hard to explain
I'd better take them all back down again
'Cause you've walked right into my life
You've cut through me just like a knife
But it's ok, yeah it's ok

(chorus)
I gave myself away, yes I did, you know I did
I gave myself away, yes I did, yes I did

I Just Want You Back Again
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

I never knew, what I was running from
I never knew, anything was wrong
I never knew, that my life was easy, so easy
Now everything just takes too long, too long
I should have known
That your love would win out in the end
And I just want you back again
I should have known
That your love would win out in the end
And I just want you back again

I never knew, that I was dyin' inside
I never knew, I refused to see
I never knew, what I was tryin' to hide
Until you gave your love to me, to me
I should have known
That your love would win out in the end
And I just want you back again
I should have known
That your love would win out in the end
And I just want you back again

I Still Love You Baby
(from No Deposit, No Return)

Well we've been together now, for many years
And we've had our good times, we've cried some tears
Through the stormy weather, we kept on tryin'
I love you more than ever now, and I ain't lyin'

(chorus
Oh you've given me so much
But I still need your sweet touch
You know how, to drive me crazy
And I still love you baby
I ... still love you baby

You don't try to change things, you let me be me
And you've never held me back, I always feel free
Seems that you always listen, to every word I say
We just do the best we can, from day to day

(chorus)
Oh you've given me so much
But I still need your sweet touch
You know how, to drive me crazy
And I still love you baby
I ... still love you baby

You mean everything to me, I want you to know
I have no regrets at all, when it's time to go
There's just one thing that I want, for you to do
That's to never ever doubt, that I love you

(chorus)
Oh you've given me so much
But I still need your sweet touch
You know how, to drive me crazy
And I still love you baby
I ... still love you baby

I'm Afraid I'm Losing You

Sitting here so patiently
The seasons come and they go
Another day, another way
To let my feelings show

The letters that you wrote to me
I swear it must be a sin
Because what I've done, with you my love
Is would not let you in

(chorus)
And I'm afraid I'm losing you
Don't want to live my life alone
And spend my days, running from myself
Just looking for a home

The winters here, they can get so cold
They can chill you to the bone
Don't let it freeze your heart, my precious one
I just can't stand to be alone

And so I sing this song to you
In hopes that you still care
The beauty of your smile, and to laugh a while
And lose myself in your hair

(chorus)
And I'm afraid I'm losing you
Don't want to live my life alone
And spend my days, running from myself
Just looking for a home

Island Style
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

Don't need to worry, don't have no fear
We've got somethin' goin' on way down here
It's what I've been searchin' for, what I wanted to find
Makes me feel so good, and it helps me to unwind
It's called Island Style, Island Style
It always makes me smile, that Island Style

Went down to the water, to take a little walk
I laid down at lunchtime, got back up at three o'clock
Called up my bossman, just what would be my fate
He said, "Son don't you worry, cause everybody else is late"
It's called Island Style, Island Style
It always makes me smile, that Island Style

(chorus)
Island Style, too good to believe
I'm never in a hurry, and I never want to leave
Island Style, won't you come on down and see
That Island Style, Island Style

Oh Island Style, could this be a dream
Seems like my whole life, I've been tryin' to swim upstream
But that doesn't matter now, things will be ok
And I get to go home early, it's aloha Friday
It's called Island Style, Island Style
It always makes me smile, that Island Style

(chorus)
Island Style, too good to believe
I'm never in a hurry, and I never want to leave
Island Style, won't you come on down and see
That Island Style, Island Style

Don't need to worry, don't have no fear
We've got somethin' goin' on way down here
It's what I've been searchin' for, what I wanted to find
Makes me feel so good, and it helps me to unwind
It's called Island Style, Island Style
It always makes me smile, that Island Style

It's Only An Island
(from Hanalei Rainy Day Blues)

It's only an island, in the middle of the sea
Just forty miles across, for you and me
It's only an island, just like a song
To get to the other side, don't take too long

(chorus)
What's the hurry, what's the hurry
There's nothing that important
Well you don't have to worry

It's only an island, where ya goin' so fast
Like makin' love, wanna try to make it last
It's only an island, don't be no fool
To get to the other side, ya gotta play it cool

(chorus)
What's the hurry, what's the hurry
There's nothing that important
Well you don't have to worry

It's only an island, now get it right
Don't drive yourself so hard, that you lose sight
It's only an island, a little chunk of clay
You won't be around for long, so don't do that way

(chorus)
What's the hurry, what's the hurry
There's nothing that important
Well you don't have to worry

It's only an island, oh yeah
It's only an island, oh yeah
It's only an island, don't wanna go too fast
It's only an island, got to make it last
It's only an island, don't be a fool
It's only an island, ya gotta play it cool
It's only an island, now get it right
It's only an island, don't you lose sight

She's A Mystery To Me
(from Tryin' to Find My Way)

I don't even know her name
But she gives me such a thrill
I wonder if she feels the same
Or if she ever will

I saw her walkin' on down the street
I thought she gave me a glance
Now I could hardly move my feet
But I didn't wanna miss my chance

(chorus)
Well my heart starts beatin' faster
Like I'm gonna die
It keeps on getting' louder
Now my oh my
Well she's a mystery to me
Yes, such a mystery to me

Such a mystery to me

It's hard to know just what to do
But I had to turn and go back
I get so nervous, how 'bout you
Lord it feels like a heart attack

I walked on up to her and I said
"You're lookin' mighty good to me"
Then she smiled and she turned her head
Said,"Do you need some company"

(chorus)
Well my heart starts beatin' faster
Like I'm gonna die
It keeps on getting' louder
Now my oh my
Well she's a mystery to me

Take Me Back To the Country
(from Country Mix)

Take me back to the country now

Take me back to the country
Where I can live like before
There's too many people, always runnin' around

Take me back to the country, baby
Before I end my days

Take me back to the country now
I wanna run away and hide
Take me back to the country
You can tell everybody goodbye
There's too many buildings, and not enough trees
Everywhere that I see
Take me back to the country, baby
That's the place I want to be

Please listen, before you close the door

Lost in confusion
Following an illusion
I'm just tryin' to find my way

Whole World Of Trouble
(from Dirty Business)

Well there's rain in California
And I got caught in a mudslide
Yeah there's rain in California
And I got caught in a mudslide
I'm in a whole world of trouble
The love she had for me has died

Darkness close around me
And it's getting so hard to breathe
Yes darkness close around me
And it's getting so hard to breathe
I'm in a whole world of trouble
Why, did she have to leave

Feel her ring still on my finger
Oh how I recognize the touch
Feel her ring still on my finger
Yes how I recognize the touch
I'm in a whole world of trouble
Because I miss that girl so much

Well there's rain in California
And I got caught in a mudslide

She was the one I loved the best

Workin' For the Man Until We Die

Ain't it great to be livin' in the land of the free
Just tryin' to get a piece of the American dream
But all the people tell me that somethin's gone wrong
Guess I'd better put it down in a song
And it's oh lordy me, oh lordy my
We're just workin' for the man until we die

Well now getting ahead must be some kinda trick
And I hope to heaven that I don't get sick
'Cause if I do, I'd lose all my pay
And the bossman he ain't got nothin' much to say
And it's oh lordy me, oh lordy my
We're just workin' for the man until we die

Well minimum wage ain't makin' us rich
These old part time jobs, are a son of a bitch
It ain't that I don't like my government
But I wonder where, all the money went
And it's oh lordy me, oh lordy my
We're just workin' for the man until we die

Where are we goin', and where have we been
I ask the same questions, since I don't know when
They tell us not to worry, it's just a matter of time
The way that we're treated, is worse than a crime
And it's oh lordy me, oh lordy my
We're just workin' for the man until we die

We're all just slaves, on this slavery ship
Either jump overboard, or put up with the whip
The people are hungry, they're sick and they're poor
And they can't find a place to live anymore
And it's oh lordy me, oh lordy my
We're just workin' for the man until we die
And it's oh lordy me, oh lordy my
We're just workin' for the man until we die
