"If Ya Wanna Be Bad Ya Gotta Be Good"


She got a nasty reputation and a talent for sin
She's the kinda trouble i'd like to be in
I wanna be a lover - I wanna be a slave
But she's the kinda women makes me wanna misbehave
So give it what you want boy - let's make it understood
That if ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good

She says there'll be no lying - no foolin' around
No seven day weekends -
no nights on the town
Well that's the way I wast it -
that's the way it's gotta be
If you're looking for trouble better get it from me
So get on your knees boy and do what you should
If ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good

No she makes the laws -
she calls the shots
Do what she wants if you want what she's got
Can't have it both ways - you gotta chose
She can give you the rhythm or she can give you the blues
Oh, if you want sugar better bring it on home
Better keep it in the kitchen cuz that's where it belongs
You gotta make her happy boy
Just take it from me
Or you'll never get none of that tlc
If you're tryin' to get lucky
- better knock on wood
If ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good

"If You Wanna Leave Me"


You can't stand still for a moment
You can't stand still for a night
Your feet just starta move when it's boring
But 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 ya 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
If you say no - I'm still gonna go
If you wanna leave me - can I come too?

You try 'n keep dry in the water
You try 'n keep cool in the fire
The politics of love are getting harder
So grab a hold, take my hand, we'll take it higher!

"Inside Out"


The biggest lie you ever told - your deepest fear 'bout growin' old
The longest night you ever spent - the angriest letter you never sent
The boy you swore you'd never leave - the one you kissed on new Year's Eve
The sweetest dream you had last night - your darkest hour, your hardest fight

I wanna know you - like I know myself
I'm waitin' for you - there ain't no one else
Talk to me baby - scream and shout
I wanna know you - inside out
I wanna dig down deep - I wanna lose some sleep
I wanna scream and shout - I wanna know you inside out
I wanna take my time - I wanna know your mind
Ya know there ain't no doubt - I wanna know you inside out

The saddest song you ever heard - the most you said with just one word
The loneliest prayer you ever prayed - the truest vow you ever made
What makes you laugh, what makes you cry what makes you mad, what gets you by
You highest high, your lowest low - these are the things I wanna know

I wanna know you - like I know myself
I'm waitin' for you - there ain't no one else
Talk to me baby - scream and shout
I wanna know you - inside out
I wanna dig down deep - I wanna lose some sleep
I wanna scream and shout - I wanna know you inside out
I wanna take my time - I wanna know your mind
Ya know there ain't no doubt - I wanna know you inside out
I wanna know your soul - I wanna lose control
C'mon n' let it out - I wanna know you inside out
Ya gotta dig down deep - I wanna lose some sleep
I wanna scream and shout - I wanna know you inside out

Tell me everything...

"Into The Fire"


Life - thin as a thread
Sometimes you're lucky
Sometimes you're better off dead

Your first breath is taken and in to the world you are cast
You long for tomorrow while living each day as your last

Well I know what your heart desires
But you can't take it with you
Into the fire

Now you've done all you can
Your life's at the crossroads
You watch as it slips through your hands

So stand on the mountain and shout in vain at the sky
But nobody hears you - the words only echo inside
Oh shelter the flame - it may expire
Risin' up from the ashes
Into the fire

Just hold on to your life down to the wire
Oh out from the dragon's jaws
Into the fire

There's a moment in every man's life
When he must decide what is wrong and what's right

You could wait for your dreams to come true
But time has no mercy
Time won't stand still for you

Well I know what your heart desires
Crawlin' out from the wreckage
Into the fire

Here I go...into the fire
I know...what your heart desires

"Is Your Mama Gonna Miss Ya?"


I might as well bin 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

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

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 goin' 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?"

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 crumblin' down

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!

I said stop and she said go
Looks so good I can't say no
Now we've gone and lost control.

"It Ain't A Party - If You Can't Come 'Round"


It ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
You can drive the car - I'll play my ol' guitar
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can get some beer - ya let's get outta here
Come back to me - come back to me
We'll find a place to go - no one will ever know
Somewhere that's outta town
Put a blanket on the ground - baby
N' we can really go crazy
Babe it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
Can't even get started - if you don't come down
Even Saturday - ain't a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round

Slip into somethin' tight - we'll slip into the night
Come back to me - come back to me
We'll see the sun go down - 'n maybe fool around
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can start a fire - maybe get a little higher
Don't worry what to bring - cuz we got everything - baby
And we can really go crazy

Babe it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round
Can't even get started - if you don't come down
Even Saturday - ain't a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it ain't a party - if you can't come 'round

"Jealousy"


I can't complain about the way we tried,
So maybe it's time to say goodbye,
Not gonna look around
I'm just gonna look away.
Don't put the reasons back in my head,
You say you loved me now you've left me for dead,
Oh I just can't stand it this way.
Oh jealousy, coming over me,
It's that jealousy, breaking my heart.
Whoa jealousy, taking control of me,
Now ya just gotta know,
That I can't let it go,
And it's time that ya knew,
I can't stop loving you.

You say I'm a sentimental fool,
But all I tried to do is go with you,
Not gonna look around
I'm just gonna look away.
It's been a battle since you broke my heart,
I tell you now that it's been coming down hard,
Oh I just can't stand another day.

"Kiss And Say Goodbye"


I had to meet you here today
There's just so many things to say
Please don't stop me 'till I'm through
This is something I hate to do

We've been meeting here so long
I guess what we done, oh was wrong
Please darling, oh don't you cry
Let's just kiss and say goodbye

Many months have passed us by
(I'm gonna miss you)
I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie
(I'm gonna miss you)
I've got ties, and so do you
(I'm gonna miss you)
I just think this is the thing to do
(Yes I do)

It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie
Maybe you'll meet,
maybe you'll meet another guy
Understand me
Won't you try, try, try, try, try, try, try
Let's just kiss and say goodbye

(I'm gonna miss you)
I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie
(I'm gonna miss you)
Understand me, I won't you try
won't you try
(I'm gonna miss you)
It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie
(I'm gonna miss you)
I take my handkerchief and wipe your eyes
(I'm gonna miss you)
Maybe you'll find,
maybe you'll find another guy

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Let's just kiss and say goodbye

"Last Chance"


Well you take it all for granted,
So it should come as no surprise,
That your big balloon is gonna burst,
Right before your eyes.

Well you always call your mama,
Just for sympathy yeah,
But I tried to show you years ago,
So don't come crying to me.
Now it's your last chance the night is over,
Last chance for love,
Well you can blame it on the bosanova,
You can't blame me when I'm gone.
Well you call me up for favours,
You say that it's my turn,
Well I think I'll stand on my hard earned drive,
And watch your bridges burn.

Well I saw my Guardian Angel,
He said I can refuse,
Well I'd take the chance but it's hard to dance,
With size 8 concrete shoes.

Well you take it all for granted,
So it should come as no surprise,
That your big balloon is gonna burst,
Right before your eyes.

"Lay Lady Lay"


Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Whatever colors you have in your mind
I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean
And you're the best thing that he's ever seen

Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it too

Why wait any longer for the one you love
When he's standing in front of you

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead

Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
