"Maybe Someday"

"Maybe Someday"



Well I've been drifting alone in the night
I've had the blues for you so long
I've been down, I've been confused
Searching for an answer, baby, one that I can use

Lying here in the morning light
Promises fade like the dreams of the night
My old love you don't come no more
Bring me loving, baby, like you did before

Was it the time?
Was it someone on your mind?
Was it love just for a while?

Maybe some day when the hurting is gone
Baby, some way love will stay on
Maybe some day we will do no wrong
I know we can make it all right, babe, if we try
Maybe some day

I've been thinking, darling, of all the times before
When I needed loving why did it walk right out the door?
Do I hold you too hard, baby, jealous you don't stay?
I guess that's loving you, darling, I know no other way

Is it the time?
Is there someone on my mind?
Is it love once in a while?

Maybe some day the need will be gone
Maybe some way I'll find to move on
Baby some day there's a way to belong
Maybe I'll find it today, baby, our way
Maybe some day
Baby, some day

"Miles Away"

"Miles Away"



Wheels keep on rolling mindless of our flight
As towns lie in slumber we fade into the night
The cities so familiar are like a long lost friend
With open arms they shelter me and bring me home to them

And we're miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I'm always miles away

Just outside of Memphis where rock and roll began
We say a prayer for Elvis then on the road again
The mind begins to wander as memories unfold
The music on the radio reminds us of our homes

And we're miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I'm always miles away

Sometimes it seems the road will never end
Sometimes it seems my only friend

What will tomorrow tell I just can't say today
Because I'm always miles away miles away
The boy I left at home took his first steps today
I'll watch him on the video before I leave to play

'Cause we're miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I'm always miles and miles away
Always miles away
All of my life is rolling
I'm living just to play
Seems I'm always miles away
Seems I'm always miles away
Seems I'm always miles away miles away

"Mista Bone"

"Mista Bone"



That girl is just a cool good looker
That baby's sweeter than raw brown sugar
Never mind 'cause the fancy took her
She says she wants to have the small head rock her

What a smile, don't it drive you insane, my baby
Drive a mile, just to ride back again, baby, won't you rock it tonight?

And when she's in the mood
When she needs that loving groove
When she wants it rude
She grooves with mista bone
If she's in the mood
If she hits that loving groove
When she's getting rude
She grooves with mista bone

Just take it like a sweet injection
Just a token of my affection
Another night we'll take another direction
I'm going to play you like a rhythm section

What style, let me see that again, my baby
Drive a mile, just to ride you again, baby, won't you rock it tonight?

And when she's in the groove
When she needs that loving mood
When she wants it rude
She grooves with mista bone
When she's in the mood
When she hits that loving groove
When she's getting rude
She grooves with mista bone

When she's in the mood
When she needs that loving groove
When she wants it rude
She grooves with mista bone
When she's in the mood
When she hits that loving groove
When she's getting rude
She grooves with mista bone

"Mistreater"

"Mistreater"



Something about the way she walks
The way she wears her hair
Something about the way she talks
She makes her meaning clear
Animal grace, the angel face
She gets it all for free

You'll be sorry, believe it
She used to put that on for me
Fire's in her eyes but eyes can lie
Blinded by the light of the stars

She's a mean mistreater, and you just can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater, no, you can't leave it alone
She's a mean mistreater

We came to town in seventy five
From somewhere way back east
Whole lot more to staying alive
Than they tell you about down on main street
Took our place, lost in space
Two more dreamers in town

You know the story, believe it
And now she chooses cold company
Fire's in her eyes but her eyes lie
Listen, mister, take it from me

She's a mean mistreater, and you just can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater, no, you can't leave it alone
She's a mean mistreater, and you just can't leave her alone
She's a mean mistreater, no, you can't leave it alone
She's a mean mistreater

Fire's in her eyes but her eyes lie
Listen, mister, take it from me

She's a mistreater she's going to treat you so bad
She's a mistreater
She's a mean mistreater, no, you can't leave it alone
A stone trick teaser, no, you can't leave it alone
She's a mean mistreater, no you can't leave it alone
She's a mean mistreater, now she's got to leave it at home

"Momma Don't Stop"

"Momma Don't Stop"



Well, I never thought I'd see you back
On my side of the railroad tracks
Just blown in from Tokyo
Hanging out at the rock and roll show

You're looking for some kid to sign
Catching jive off the grapevine
Billboard's running a picture next week
Hits applauds you on your winning streak

Never mind you're sleeping alone
There's always someone else on the phone

So, momma, don't stop your rock and roll
You might just find your heart has gone cold
Momma, don't stop your rock and roll
All day long

Said I'm real impressed with the things that you've done
Look how far this lady has come
Used to be so quiet and sweet
But now your name's all over the street

You used to charge it by the hour
Now you own an apartment tower
It's a shame about your former friends
Everyone now is a means to an end

Never mind you're living alone
It's hard to get a scratch on the loving jones

So, momma, don't stop your rock and roll
You might just find your little lost soul
Momma, don't stop your rock and roll
All night long

It's so hard to be a woman today
To get what you deserve
It's not easy when you walking this way
You have to keep a distant reserve

So, momma, don't stop your rock and roll
You might just find your heart has gone cold
Momma, don't stop your rock and roll
All day long

Momma, don't stop your rock and roll
You might just find your little lost soul
Momma, don't stop your rock and roll
All night long

"Mother's Eyes"

"Mother's Eyes"



And slowly she turns away, don't look any more
There's only stillness, no more air can he draw
No time to say goodbye, no last little kiss
No life where bullets fly, and now it comes to this

What's left in her world?
The child's gone

Softly she whispers, where did I go so wrong?
My future, my baby, tell me what's going on?
No light in mother's eyes, nothing you can say
No answers for the whys she'll ask every day

What's left in her world?
The child's gone

"Move It"

"Move It"



Sweet little sister, this scene's sure getting old
Don't you think it's time we've got to go?
I got so twisted trying to make it right
Don't you know we've wasted half the night?

I was told to use my head
Be heard and never seen
It's just your daddy's double talk
Baby, and it don't mean no thing to me

Let's move it, time to say so long
Let's move it, let's get this mother on

Hey, little sister, in your high heeled shoes
Don't you know it's time to learn the blues?
Sweet little sister, time to get it on
Don't you know the meaning to this song?

I recall what daddy said
Stay where you belong
That's just another lie into nowhere
Let's get this baby on

Let's move it, time to say so long
Let's move it, let's get this mother on
Let's move it, time to say so long
Let's move it, let's get this mother on

Let's move it
Let's move it
Let's move it
Just like that

I's just that double talk
Don't mean no thing to me
it's time to shake it loose
Shake it from the family tree

Let's move it, time to say so long
Let's move it, let's get this mother on
Let's move it, time to say so long
Let's move it, let's get this mother on
Just move it

"My Sanctuary"

"My Sanctuary"



Sometimes I feel the blues all around me
And sometimes I feel like heartache's my only friend
Each time I pull this train off its tracks
It's getting harder so much harder to make it back

And when I feel alone
You've always been the one
Always been the one to share the load

You are my sanctuary
My mother Mary
And you're everything in life
Everything I want to be
Heaven made you for me

I wonder what you see in me my darling
I wonder what redeeming qualities
It seems like we've always been together
Through good time bad times you're still my rainbow's end

And when this old world's got me down
Trade a smile for a frown
Yeah you've always been the one who never let me down

You are my sanctuary
My mother Mary
And you're everything in life
Everything I want to be
Heaven made you for me
Made you for me

And when I'm feeling down and lonely
Your love keeps me alive
And so you know you know you're my one and only
From the heart I wrote down this song just for you

And when I feel alone
You've always been the one
Always been the one to share the load

You are my sanctuary
My mother Mary
And you're everything in life
Everything I want to be
Heaven made you for me

You are my sanctuary
You're my mother Mary
And you're everything in life
The only one my eyes can see
Heaven made you for me
Heaven made you for me
Heaven made just for me
Just for me

"My World"

"My World"



On the horizon there's a storm on the rise
Black seas are forming there's terror in the skies
My life has been a river headed for a fall
These days I can never child make sense of it all

My world is hanging on a line
Here in my world, my world
Searching for some peace in time
My world is darker every day
Here in my world, my world

I can't find a meaning in the season of the time
I'm standing on the edge waiting for a sign
But I just can't go on this way
I don't believe I'll stay, just won't stay

My world is hanging on a line
Here in my world, my world
Looking for some love this time
My world is smaller every day
Here in my world, my world
My world my world

My world is hanging on a line
Here in my world, my world
Searching for some peace in time
My world is colder every day
Here in my world, my world
My world my world
My world my world
This is my world
This is my world
This is my world

"Neighborhood"

"Neighborhood"



So lay me down easy here comes another day
I don't want to get up no I don't want to play
I listen to everyone all I hear is the lie
I turn on the television and I ask myself why
Here we go the same old faces telling me that I'm okay
All this seems so circumstantial and then I find

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
It's just another day and you're looking good
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?

There's a hole in the ceiling my head's on the floor
I see it all sideways I can't feel it no more
Emotional vampire feeding off me
Smother the goodness so much I can't breathe
We're burning all our expectations to justify our misery
I have my thoughts of happiness and realise

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
It's just another day and you're looking good
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?

Another pot of gold another rainbow's end
It's just another road down down down
It's just another road down down down
It's just another road down

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
It's just another day and you're looking good
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
It's just another day and you're looking good
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?

It's just another day in the neighbourhood
It's just another day and you're looking good
You want to run away don't you wish you could?
Ain't it good to be alive?
