"I'll Go Crazy"

"I'll Go Crazy"



If you leave me, I'll go crazy,
If you leave me, I'll go crazy,
'cause I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you too much

If you push me, I'll go crazy,
If you push me, I'll go crazy,
'Cause I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you too much

You got to live for yourself
Yourself and nobody else
You got to live for yourself
Yourself and nobody else

If you quit me, I'll go crazy,
If you quit me, I'll go crazy,
'Cause I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you too much

You got to live for yourself
Yourself and nobody else
You got to live for yourself
Yourself and nobody else

You got to live for yourself
Yourself and nobody else
You got to live for yourself
Yourself and nobody else

If you leave me, I'll go crazy,
If you leave me, I'll go crazy,
'Cause I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you too much

If you leave me, I'll go crazy,
If you leave me I'll go crazy
'Cause I love you, I love you
Oh I love you too much

"I'm Still On Your Side"

"I'm Still On Your Side"



Emotions ran high and the word were strong
Heard the screen door slam and you were gone
You can’t win a fight, you don’t understand
And I wake up alone reachin’ for your hand
Like a cold wind in December
When we don’t see eye to eye
I want you to remember
I’m still on your side
When you need me girl
Still on your side

As sure as a river runs to the sea
There’ll have to be times, we both disagree
Sometimes I feel like shoutin’
It’s like a freight train in my heart
Make you see they’ll be no doubtin’
I’m still on your side
When you need me girl
Still on your side

And I look up to see you standin’ there
But you just look right thru me
Somebody tell me I’m dreamin’
Pretend you don’t care
As you turn round and walk out that door

Sometimes I feel like shoutin’
It’s like a freight train in my heart
Make you see they’ll be no doubtin’
I’m still on your side
Like a cold wind in December
When we don’t see eye to eye
I want you to remember
I’m still on your side
I’m still on your side

"I'm Surprised"

"I'm Surprised"



Well you come to me
With your accusations
And you sit me down
Put your finger in my face
And you say you want some kind of explanation
Oh but darling
Your suspicion is misplaced

So I'm surprised
You don't know me better
I'm surprised you think I'm that kind of man
I'm surprised that you don't believe me
I'm surprised that you don't understand

Yeah and I've been trying
To read the way your face moves
It might tell me
Just how long I've got to breathe
And what you're feeling about me

Well by now
We both know I was lying
And everything you nailed me with was true
And so I throw myself darling at your mercy
And I'll understand whatever you will do

So I'm surprised
You still want to see me
I'm surprised you're gonna let me live
I'm surprised your daddy hasn't killed me
I must say I was pleasantly surprised

"It Will Be Alright"

"It Will Be Alright"



Well a passing glance across the room
It brought me to your side
And the words you spoke like melodies
Made my spirit high
If forever seems too long for you
I’ll gladly set you free
But if I always dream of you
It’ll be alright with me

Well I always felt alone in life
Until you came alone
And you took away my darkest fears
And made me feel so strong
Well I know that nothing stays the same
I’ll have to let you be
But if I always dream of you
It’ll be alright with me

You and I are the same
We need to be loved sometime
But we’re scared of the pain
We find if we waste our time
Sometimes you have to choose to walk the line
Even if you’re walking blind
That’s the game that we play

And if forever seems too long for you
I’ll gladly set you free
But if I always dream of you
It’ll be alright with me
But if I always dream of you
It’ll be alright with me
It’ll be alright with me
It’ll be alright with me

"Just A Man"

"Just A Man"



Sometimes I feel just like jesus christ
I’m nailed to the wall I must pay the price
No revelations and so set of rules
Stand where I fall, next to kings next to fools

When I look at myself I don’t like what I see
What a real fine example for life I must be

I’m just a man who has problems I must solve on my own
The deeper I reach I find the more they unroll

I’m just a man like the next guy, all I have I have shown
I know I can make it through this whole life alone

I hide from the lights as I look to the ground
I almost believe there’s no one around

It’s funny how you look at things
When you don’t like what you see
Sure enough the world will turn
Sometimes without me

I’m just a man who has problems I must solve on my own
The deeper I reach I find the more they unroll

I’m just a man like the next guy, all I have I have shown
I know I can make it through this whole life alone

But if I had a chance to do it all again
You know I would, if I only could

Yeah but the best things in life are yet to come
Won’t you bring them on now
I won’t be alone, not for too long

I’m just a man who has problems I must solve on my own
The deeper I reach I find the more they unroll

I’m just a man like the next guy, all I have I have shown
I know I can make it through this whole life alone

"Khe Sahn"

"Khe Sahn"



I left my heart to the sappers round khe sahn
And I sold my soul with my cigarettes to the black market man
I've had the vietnam cold turkey
from the ocean to the silver city
And it's only other vets can understand
About the long forgotten dock side guarantee
How there were no v-day heros in 1973
And how we sailed into sydney harbour I saw an old friend but I couldn't kiss her
We were lined and I was home to the lucky land
We were like so many more from that time on
Their lives were all so empty 'till they found their chosen one
And their legs were often open but their minds were always closed
And their hearts were held in fast surburban chains.
The legal pads were yellow hours long pay packet lean
And the telex-writers clattered where the gun ships once had been
And carparks made me jumpy, but I never stopped the dream for the growing need of speed and novacaine.
So I worked across the country from end to end
Trying to find a place to settle down where my mixed up life could end
Held a job on an oil rig, flying choppers when I could
But the night life nearly drove me round the bend.
And I travelled round the world from year to year
Each one found me aimless one more year the worst for ware
And I've been back to south east asia
You know the answer sure ain't there
But I'm drifting north to check things out again

Well the last plane out of sydney's almost gone
In 7 flying hours we'll be landing in Hong Kong
And there ain't nothing like the kisses from a jaded chinese princess
I'm gonna hit some Hong Kong matress all night long

Well the last plane out of sydney's almost gone
Well the last plane out of sydney's almost gone
And it's really got me worried
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
You know the last plane out of sydney's almost gone

Well the last plane out of sydney's almost gone oh yeah
Well the last plane out of sydney's almost gone woahhhhhhh
And it's really got me worried
I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry
You know the last plane out of sydney's almost gone.

"Knock Me Down"

"Knock Me Down"



I’ve stood alone against a lot of men
I didn’t care if there was one or ten
They never knocked me down
Makes no difference if you carry a gun
Don’t expect me just to turn and run
Won’t let you knock me down
You can try to shoot me in the back
Or can you just hold out for a heart attack
But you won’t knock me down
My daddy taught me what was wrong and right
If I believe, I’ll always stand and fight
Won’t let you knock me down
And if you wanna put me to the test

I’m gonna turn my cheek, you better do your best
Won’t let you knock me down
I ain’t the greatest fighting man alive
But you can never take away my pride
Won’t let you knock me down
I learned a lot of things when I was just at school
I was never gonna be nobody’s fool
They thought that maybe time could open up my eyes
And I’ve learnt to bend
But boy were they surprised

You can beat me ‘til I’m black and blue
I’m gonna keep on coming, I might just bleed on you
But you won’t knock me down
This is a simple choice of life and death
One wrong move and you’ve got nothing left
No you won’t knock me down
If you think that all I say ain’t true
You better keep on running cause I’m after you
You’ll never knock me down

Hold on to your back

"Last Frontier"

"Last Frontier"



Pushin’ ever westward, across the great divide
Beyond the darling river
Towards the outback sky

The lawless and the brave, searchin’ for a dream
When all they found was sand and stone
Where rivers once had been

They tried to follow nomads, like ghosts in desert dreams
And suffered in a sunburnt land…
Down in the last frontier

They sent them from the motherland
Into there greatest fear
To live and die for freedom’s cry
Down in the last frontier

A drover rides in search of work, across the sweeping plains
A farmer kneels in a hungry church
As his children prey for rain

Back in a land across the sea
They found another war
They asked the anzacs to believe
What there fightin’ for

They sent them to another land
Into there greatest fear
To fight and die for freedom’s cry
And for the last frontier

People in the lucky land, who searched for paradise
Are reachin’ out for somethin’ more
And don’t believe there lies

The promises of hope and work, still ringing in there ears
The hungry and homeless cry
Down in the last frontier
