"What Will They Say"
(with John Swan)



Been through troubled waters
What I have seen
Took it to the borders
Rock’n’rolls been good to me
Though the times of hurt and dispair
Heaven knows that baby
I could not leave you far behind
Know I took my time
But what will they say
When daddy's gone
Daddy’s gone away

I’ve got my sons and daughters
My cavalry
And like a wounded soldier
They rescue me
I put us through some pain and regret
For you I’d put that bottle,
Time I put that bottle to bed

I could not leave you far behind
Know I took my time
But what will they say
When daddy's gone
Daddy’s gone away

I was blinded
And running though the fire
Never leave you
But who am I to decide

When daddy’s gone
When daddy’s gone

Baby I could not leave you far behind
Know i
Baby I could not leave you far behind
Know i
Baby I could not leave you far behind
Know I took my time
But what will they say
Daddy's gone
When daddy’s gone

I’ve been through troubled waters
What I have seen

"Wheels In Motion"

"Wheels In Motion"



16 years guaranteed
That you'd get what you want or get what you need
When you realise you ain't gonna get it move on
Hit, split n quit it
Said you were waiting for the right time to come
Hit the top of the hill - start to run

Set the wheels in motion
Start 'em up, start 'em up
(I'm saying) right here now, set the wheels in motion

And sixteen years never cured your fears
When you opened your eyes couldn't see through the tears
Out on the edge now you must decide to hump off
Flip, flop or fly

Time to get outta here, yes it is
Time we were changin', shiftin' gears

Set the wheels in motion, start 'em up, start 'em up
When it's time to go, set the wheels in motion
Set the wheels in motion, start 'em up, start 'em up
Right here now, set the wheels in motion

Aimed at the middle, primed up like a loaded gun
Ain't nothin' gonna stop you from explodin'

You've been wastin' your time, bein' led by the blind
Yeah, the weight of the world drags you down
Let you bridges be burned, with the lessons you've learned
You should be walkin' on water by now

"When Something Is Wrong With My Baby"
(feat. John Farnham)



When something is wrong with my baby
Something is wrong with me
If I know she's worried
Oh I would feel that same old misery
We've been through so much together
We spoke as one and that's what makes it better

Oh and just what just what she means to me now
Oh you just oh you just wouldn't understand
And the people say oh they say she's no good
Oh but she's my woman and don't you know
I'm her man
If she's got a problem oh yeah yeah
Oh I know I'm gonna have to help her solve it

If she's got a problem oh I know
I'm gonna help her
You know I'm gonna have
To help her somehow

Oh sing it again
When something is wrong with my baby
Oh sure now
When something is wrong with my baby oh
Then something is wrong with me

"When Two Hearts Collide"

"When Two Hearts Collide"



Do you find yourself getting misty, listening to the radio
And every station brings you down, even the talkback show
Do you need to pick up the phone and call strangers on the air
And pouring out your trouble to any one who'll listen
You just don't care

When two hearts collide
Everything else just gets pushed aside
And you can't see how you'll ever survive
That's just what happens girl when two heart collide

Well that guy who cry's in his drink
You know just where he's coming from
And you sympathies with the truth and the lies he keeps telling anyone
Does it feel like the world stopped turning
And you gotta hold on real tight
And if it weren't for the weight of the bottle in your hand
You'd drift right out of sight

When two hearts collide
Everything else just gets pushed aside
And you can't see how you'll ever survive
That's just what happens girl when two heart collide

And do you feel like you're out in the dessert?
And the sun's burning down so bright
And no matter which way that you're headed
It just keeps shining in your eyes
And the wind blows away your tracks
You can't tell where you've been
And the voice that you hear in the distance
Is just her laughing at the pain that you're in

When two hearts collide
Everything else just gets pushed aside
And you can't see how you'll ever survive
That's just what happens girl when two heart collide

When two hearts collide
You lose that fine line between wrong and right
And you can't see how you'll ever survive
That's just what happens girl when two heart collide
When two heart collide

"When Your Love Is Gone"

"When Your Love Is Gone"



Well, I thought nothing was wrong, nothing was right
I turned to you but you were no where in sight
I left it too late and maybe I hurt your pride
I should have thought of you, now you've changed your mind

And just like a well your love has run dry
Loneliness was falling from the sky

I'm like a man with no heart, I just don't belong
I can't help it when your love is gone

Well, I missed all the signs, never read between lines
And all I can say to you is that my love was blind
It's breaking my heart knowing right from the start
You tried to reach for me, now we had to part

And just like a well your love has run dry
Loneliness was falling from the sky

I'm like a man with no heart, I just don't belong
I can't help it when your love is gone
And it's all I can do to carry on
I can't help it when your love is gone

Well, I'll tell you no lies, you've opened my eyes
Made me feel like a man again
You've walked out that door and you left me alone
I broke down and I cried 'cause I don't think I can make it alone

Oh, listen, I would sail the deepest ocean
Just to be by your side again
And all I want is for you to love me
Just say you love me again, again, again, again

I'm like a man with no heart, I just don't belong
I can't help it when your love is gone
And it's all I can do just to carry on
I can't help it when your love is gone

I'm like a man with no heart, I just don't belong
I can't help it when your love is gone
And it's all I can do just to carry on
I can't help it when your love is gone

I'm like a man with no heart, I just don't belong
I can't help it when your love is gone
And it's all I can do just to carry on
I can't help it when your love is gone

I can't help myself when your love is gone
Your love is gone

"Who's Making Love"

"Who's Making Love"



All you fellows, gather round me
And let me give some good advice.
What I'm gonna, gonna ask you now
You better think about it twice.
While you're out there cheatin' on your woman
There is something you never even dreamed of

Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?
Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?

I've seen so, so many fellows
Fall in that same old trap
Thinkin' that a woman is made to
To be beat on and treated so bad.
Let me tell you somethin'
I'm sure that you never even dreamed of

Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?
Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?

The reason why I ask this question,
I used to be the same old way.
When I decided to straighten up
I found it was a bit too late.
Oh yeah, that's when it all happened,
Something I never ever dreamed of.

Somebody was a-lovin' my old lady
While I was out makin' love.
Somebody was a-lovin' my old lady
While I was out makin' love.

Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?
Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?

Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?
Who's making love to your old lady
While you were out making love?

"Wichita Lineman"
(originally by Glen Campbell )
(with David Campbell)



I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the main road
Searchin’ in the sun for another overload
I hear you singing in the wire
I can hear you though the wire
And the wichita lineman
Is still on the line

I know I need a small vacation
But it don’t look like a prey
And if it snows that streach down south
Won’t ever stand the strain
And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the wichita lineman
Is still on the line

And I need you more than want you
And I want you for all time
And the wichita lineman
Is still on the line

Still on the line
He’s got that woman on his mind
Still on the line

"Without Your Love"

"Without Your Love"



When you work in the city
But your heart is somewhere else
You've got to hide your feelings
Gotta keep them to your self
Nowhere to go when you just brake down and cry
Everything reminds you just how far away you are

I swear I would die
Without your kiss
Keep me warm inside
Without your love
I would not be around
It's your love
Keeps my both feet on the ground

Well I hit this town
Found a place to put my bags
There's a red light flashing
Like a beacon gonna drive me mad
And a man outside is flagging down passing cars
And it all just help remind me just how far away you are

Without your love
I swear I would die
Without your kiss
Keep me warm inside
Without your love
I would not be around
It's your love
Keeps my both feet on the ground

I can't live without your love baby

Without your love
I swear I would die
Without your kiss
Keep me warm inside
And without your love
I would not be around
It's your love
Keeps my both feet on the ground

Without your love
I wont be around
Baby I swear I wont be around

"Working Class Man"

"Working Class Man"



Working hard to make a living
Bringing shelter from the rain
A father's son left to carry on
Blue denim in his veins
Oh oh oh he's a working class man

Well he's a steel town disciple
He's a legend of his kind
He's running like a cyclone
Across the wild mid western sky
Oh oh oh he's a working class man

He believes in God and Elvis
He gets out when he can
he did his time in Vietnam
Still mad at Uncle Sam
He's a simple man
With a heart of gold
In a complicated land
Oh he's a working class man

Well he loves a little woman
Someday he'll make his wife
Saving all the overtime
For the one love of his life
He ain't worried about tomorrow
Cause he just made up his mind
Life's too short for burning bridges
Take it one day at a time
Oh oh oh he's a working class man
Oh oh oh he's a working class man
Oh yeah
Yes he is
Well he's a working class man
Oh
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
I tell you he's a working class man

(Working class)
(Working class man)

Yes he is

(Working class)
(Working class man)

I wanna tell you he's a working class man

(Working class)
(Working class man)

Ma ma ma

(Working class)
(Working class man)

I got to tell you he's a working class man

(Working class)
(Working class man)

Yeah he is

(Working class)
(Working class man)

"World's On Fire"

"World's On Fire"



Out on the weekend
I'm as mad as hell
It's confusion in the citadel
No loser's gonna keep me down
I've been kicked and I've been
Shoved about

You think I'm crazy
But I know why
I ain't no thief
And I don't tell lies
That's how they play it
Down on easy street
You can't win the game
If you don't cheat

Here in my pocket
There's a 38 special
Don't want to blow it
But you never can tell
The only language
That the world understands
Is a man on the edge
With a gun in his hand

I feel like I'm walking on the edge of
A knife
They say I'm crazy
But I'll tell you why
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
My world's on fire

Doctors and lawyers
And rich man's sons
Think that they must be
The chosen ones
They use you
Abuse you and rob you blind
They sit counting your money
While they fuck
With your mind
Nobody listens and nobody cares
There's no prize for winners
And nobody cares
It's a total eclipse
On this side of the law
All that I know
I can't take any more

Feel like I'm walking on the edge of
A knife
They say I'm crazy
But I'll tell you why
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
My world's on fire

I feel like I'm walking on the edge of
A knife
They say I'm crazy
But I'll tell you why
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
My world's on fire
