"Don't You Cry"

"Don't You Cry"



Hey babe gonna be all right
Dance naked in the moonlight
Rock and roll has survived
Come on and spin the wheel
Tell me how you like the deal
Was it good for you as it was for me?

Life is what goes on in between your plans
Does anyone else hear that noise?
You tried to warn me
But I could not understand
I never really had a choice

Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Don't you cry

Let's go and drive all night
The highway feels just alright
Can you hear the call of the one's
That came before you
I hope it's understood
When anything that feels that good
Emotion turns to motion
And that's the truth

It's no use running from a thing
That you can't see
When you got no place
Left to hide
Be the person that
She wanted you to be
Keeping it real inside

Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Don't you cry

Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Dry your eyes

Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Come on now baby
Don't you cry

"Down In The City"

"Down In The City"



A boy shoots a gun, a girl looks for fun
Runnin' round in the Hollywood streets
Shakedown all around,
Lay your dirty money down
You can't always get what you need

Midnight's cool, right, die in the moonlight
No cure for the social disease
Sex fiends, Acid Queens, livin' on a bad dream
This town never sleeps

Down in the city
Gettin' what you need
Down in the city
Make your poor heart bleed

Livin' by the trigger, always better if it's bigger
Won't catch me down on my knees
Shake it down, lay it down, Sin City all around
Hollywood's the city of sleaze
Loose change, no-names, lookin' for a fast way
To make it to the top at the heap
Face down, gutter bound,
Laughin' at the poor clown
Walkin' on his name in the street

Down in the city
Give you what ya need
Down in the city
Make your poor heart bleed

Ha, ha, ha, ha

A boy shoots a gun, a girl looks for fun
Runnin' round in the Hollywood streets
Shakedown all around,
Lay your dirty money down
You can't always get what you need
Loose change, no-names, lookin' for a fast way
To make it to the top of the heap
Face down, gutter bound,
Laughin' at the poor clown
Walkin on his name in the street

Down in the city
Give you what ya need
Down in the city
Make your poor heart bleed

Down in the city
Give you what ya need
Down in the city
It's good enough for me

You're gonna burn
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha

"Dreamtime"

"Dreamtime"



If I ever thought my whole world be torn apart
If I ever dreamed I was the lucky one
I wanna touch you, wanna reach you
It's stormin' all the time
The lonely one's alone again

There's no daylight comin'
Where did it go
Where did it go
And it seems
Seems like a hundred miles away

And the stars above
Are shining for real love
And the sun is coming through
For dreamtime

If I could've fixed it
Stormin' all the time
Used to be the king of the world
Now I'm thinkin' 'bout that little girl
And the hardest part
How many words that you can't say
But you would though
If you could go
Back again
Yeah

Now you're gone
How can anyone be so wrong
But it hurts too much
I'm just a lonely boy
For your touch

And the stars above
Are shining for real love
And the sun is coming through
For dreamtime

Now you're gone
How can anyone be so wrong
That it hurts too much
I'm just a lonely boy
For your touch

And the stars above
Are shining for real love
And the sun is coming through
For dreamtime

It's coming through
For dreamtime
It's coming through
For dreamtime
Dreamtime

"Electric Gypsy"

"Electric Gypsy"



I need the highway wind blowin' in my hair
Five thousand miles I've roamed now, I'm gettin' there
This is my destiny, the way that I choose
Don't need no one to talk about
About love and blues

Round, round, up and down
Moves so fast, never touch the ground
High, high, touch the sky
Don't come down, don't make me try
Lost in space or any other place
Living my dream on the moving train
Gypsy, electric gypsy, round I blow, yeah

I remember way back when, I was just like you
Yeah, I killed myself to live, but I didn't have a clue
I got saddled in chrome and steel
750 reasons why I can't stand still

Oh no, here I go
Gotta keep moving, gotta let go
'Nother town, 'nother girl
Can't stand still till I've seen the world
Till I've seen the world, when I cry
Get in my spaceship, watch me fly
Gypsy, electric gypsy, round I blow, yeah, ooh, ah

Don't need no one to tell me to settle down
Life in the fast lane suits me to the ground
This is my destiny, the way that I choose
Don't need no one to tell me
About love and blues

Round, round, up and down
Moves so fast, never touch the ground
High, high, touch the sky
Don't come down, don't make me try
Lost in space or any other place
Puttin' my dream on the moving train
Gypsy, electric gypsy, round I blow
Gypsy, electric gypsy, oh oh oh
Gypsy, electric gypsy, round I blow
Gypsy, electric gypsy, (n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-no no no no no no) round I blow
Gypsy, electric gypsy, (oh oh oh oh oh) round I blow
Gypsy

"Electric Neon Sunset"

"Electric Neon Sunset"



Blue horizons, bridges burning
The sun beats down hard all day
Through it all the wheels keep turning
Came so far but now we must away

Oh oh where we going
Does anybody really care?
Oh oh where we going
Maybe I can meet you there.

Through the haze I see so clearly
My last Venetian sunsets fade to gray
And yes I love you so sincerely
I bid you sweet a due
And leave this day

Oh oh where we going
Does anybody really care?
Oh oh where we going
Maybe I can meet you there.

"Empire Down"

"Empire Down"



We live in a land where justice is dying
The rich are getting richer
And the poor are multiplying
Seems like corruption's got us all in a vice
Yeah if think that I'm crazy
Then you better think twice

I'm watching the empire go down
Down, down, watching the empire go down

An innocent man is wrongly accused
A woman and child are badly abused
It ain't just a matter of who's right or wrong
'Cos who pays the piper
Calls the song

I'm watching the empire go down
Down, down, watching the empire go down

I see the end of the constitution
Word on the street is revolution
No I can't look away from this suffering hate
I think we're aware that it's much too late
All the good men are either dead or gone
It's time to be counted
Time to be strong

I'm watching the empire go down
Down, down, watching the empire go down

"Face Down"

"Face Down"



It's true we walk in disbelief
Clutching to our faded glory
Trusted me but I'm a thief
Get down on your knees before me

Worlds collide hate fills my mind
Tension rising no surrender
The street's a place where love is dying
All hail to thee thy legal tender

Yes
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down

Yeah
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down

At night the vipers rip my flesh
The bitch from hell is feeding
Scratch my wounds to keep them fresh
She likes 'em young and bleeding

Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down

Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down

Good and hate fear and shame
Wasted our disaster
Cuts like cancer in my brain
Man now he's your master

Now you're gonna end up face down, yeah
Now you're gonna end up face down, face
Now you're gonna end up face down, down
Now you're gonna end up face down

Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Fucking face down

"Fade Away"

"Fade Away"



Come to a land that's many miles and years away
A land of such enchantment, words could never say
A world of mystery pleasures undenied
Come to this land of mine and walk close by my side

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And sail away
Wishing well cast a spell
And let's away

Come to a place that's hidden just beyond the sky
No need to ask me if this love will ever die
No past regret, no future near shall make you slave
I will be true to you from far beyond the grave

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And fade away
Shed the coil, no need to toil
Come far away

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And fade away
Don't forget about
Don't forget about
Don't forget about
Don't forget about me

Pale crimson lips abound with eyes of coral blue
A bed of rose and sage, these things I give to you
And woe betide the one who doubts and loses heart
Come let's away and we shall never part

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And sail away
Wishing well cast a spell
And let's away

Oh
Oh
Oh, oh
Oh
Oh

"Fast Talkin' Dream Dealer"

"Frequency"

"Frequency"



This is not
This is not my
This is not my frequency
This is not my freq...

Even as a child I was different from those
Excommunication from the ones that I loathed
And no amount of threatening could make me inclined
All your propaganda could never change my mind
To hell with all your demons you poor deluded fools
Take me to a place where there are no rules

This is not my
This is not my frequency
This is not my freq...

And anybody there ever broken a heart
Being who you are and not playing the part
And all the best intentions could never make it real
Sorry to my lovers but that's the way I feel
Changing like a season no time for regrets
Don't you ever wonder if this is good as it gets

This is not my
This is not my frequency

So when it comes down are you in or your out
Take a little time and let them think about
I will not be driven like a rusty old Ford
I did it my way I was not bored
Can't buy me off with silver
I won't do as I'm told
Keep your drunken hands off me
Your touch just leaves me cold

This is not my
This is not my frequency
