"Little Bit O'sugar"

"Little Bit O'sugar"

I want some sugar now
Sure could use a little sugar now
Won't you give me some of your sugar now
I sure do like that sugar now
I don't mind begging, mmmm
Please, some sugar now
Just want a little bit o’ sugar now
On my knees for sugar now
Saying please for the sugar now
A little cup of sugar
Sweet, sweet sugar now?it's all I want, it's all I need
Searching for some sugar now
Begging for your sugar now
Won't you give me some of that sugar now
I sure do like your sugar now
I just want sugar, some of that sugar now
It's all I want, it's all I need
Mmmm, some of that sugar now
Don't give it to the neighbour now
Just a little spoonful
A little spoon of sugar now
It's all I want, it's all I need

"Little Boy Don't Lose Your Balls"

"Little Boy Don't Lose Your Balls"

Little boy, you look so clear around the eyes
And what they've got in store for you you may not realise
So be careful when you hear the voices call
Watch out, little boy, don't lose your balls

'Cause you never know the rules until you play
First they stroke you then they screw you
Try to take your balls away
And once they're gone they're way beyond recall
Watch out, little boy, don't lose your balls

Balls run wild
Balls may get way out of line
You may not even know you've left your balls way behind

You know money only buys you what you want
And you can't buy your balls back like you buy a pair of pants
And once they're gone you've really got fuck all
Watch out, little boy, don't lose your balls

"Little Decisions"

"Little Decisions"

Hard times are never over
Trouble always comes
Still I'm looking forward

To tomorrow when it comes
I've done a little damage
To myself, I didn't care
There are things a man can't manage
And that's the devil's share

Little decisions are the kind I can make
Big resolutions are so easy to break
I don't want to hear about your big decisions

Work a little harder
Keep your mind on death
Get your things in order
Take a deeper breath

If drinking is the problem
Then drink a little less

If guilt becomes a burden
Find a friend, confess

Little decisions are the kind I can make
Big resolutions are so easy to break
I don't want to hear about your big decisions

"Little Kings"

"Little Kings"

I'm so afraid for my country
There's an ill wind blowing no good
So many lies in the name of history
They want to improve my neighbourhood

I'm so worried about my brother
He just gets sadder every day
We gotta take care of each other
Or else we're gonna have to pay

In the land of the little kings
There's a price on everything
And everywhere the little kings
Are getting away with murder

I was born in a lucky country
Every day I hear the warning bells
They're so busy building palaces
They don't see the poison in the wells

In the land of the little kings
Profit is the only thing
And everywhere the little kings
Are getting away with murder

In the land of the little kings
Justice don't mean a thing
And everywhere the little kings
Are getting away with murder

"Look So Fine, Feel So Low"

"Look So Fine, Feel So Low"

I've been seen on the street
Wearing brand new clothes
I guess I've landed on my feet
I'm lucky I suppose
She tells me that she loves me
She buys me things
She wants to take care of me
And all I gotta do is sing, sing, sing, sing
Well I look so fine
But I feel so low
Yeah I look so fine
But I feel so low

She takes me by the arm
She takes me all around
She knows all her friends are talking
Saying look what our good girl's found
One thing she's got on you
She's so easy to impress
When she asks me dumb questions
All I gotta do is say yes, yes, yes, yes
Well I look so fine
But I feel so low
Yeah I look so fine
But I feel so low

"Love Is The Law"

"Love Is The Law"

Though I speak in tongues of angels
And in many tongues of men
Though prophecy may sing through me
Without love I'm nothing

Though I understand all mysteries
And can see the story's end
Though my faith can move mountains
Without love I'm nothing

Love is the law, the law is love
Love is the law, the law is love

You may give away your riches
Do good deeds in the sight of men
You may be strong against temptation
But without love you're nothing

Without love you're just useless
Without love you're living in hell
Without love you're so hollow
An empty horn, a clanging bell

Love is the law, the law is love
Love is the law, the law is love

Love can suffer hardship
Love is tough and kind
Love is never envious
Or puffed up with pride

Love is always truthful
Love is never stale
Love is always hopeful
And never dreams that it can fail

Love is the law, the law is love
Love is the law, the law is love

"Love Letter"

"Love Letter"

Gonna sit myself down and write you a love letter
Gonna dream of the time when my life is better
This is my only prayer
This is my only plea
I wanna make a deep connection
Between you and me

Well, I see you around in the usual places
And I see you talk to and kiss lucky faces
And every poor boy’s dream
I wanna make a deep connection
Between you and me
Yeah, I feel a deep connection
Between you and me

Each night when I lie down in my lonely bed
I’m tossing and turning
This is my only prayer
This is my only plea
Wanna make a deep connection
Wanna make a deep connection
Cause I feel a deep connection
Between you and me

"Love Never Runs On Time"

"Love Never Runs On Time"

I pulled out of the suburbs by sunset
Rain was falling, it looked like it would for a while
I had a radio, a six-pack and some cigarettes
The radio died after the first hundred miles
I sang all the way to the border and guess who starred in every rhyme
Ah you know and I know that love never runs on time

I followed that old river 'til the morning
I stopped, I don't remember the name of the town
But the colour of the coffee was a warning
It was the colour of the river but not nearly as brown
The waitress poured me another, I guess she was feeling kind
You know and I know that love never runs on time

You're lost in the traffic
I've been asking around, but you haven't been seen
I never thought we were perfect
Oh but darling-what we could have been!

The rain came and went all the next day
I pulled over sometime for a sleep on the side
Then I gunned her back out on the highway
Hit a big pot-hole and the radio came alive
I never heard a love song yet that I could call yours and mine
'Cause you know and I know that love never runs on time

"Lovers' Field"

"Lovers' Field"

He sure was a lucky man
Sure was a lucky man
Sure was a lucky man
Grace flowing through his hands
Grace flowing though his hands
Sure had loving friends
Once was a lucky man
Sure was a lucky man
Sure was a lucky man
Grace flowing through his hands

We laid him down in Lovers field
We laid him down in Lovers field
We laid him down in Lovers field
On a strange windy day
On a dark windy day
We laid him down in Lovers field
Tears falling from our eyes
Tears falling from our eyes
We laid him down in Lovers field
On a strange windy day

Came a-knocking on his door
He was laying on his bed
Came a-knocking on his door
He was laying on his bed
Came a-knocking on his door
Trouble running in his head
Come again another day
I’m a-laying in my bed
Come again another day
I got daggers in my head
Swallow came in from the storm
Flew through the merry hall
High above the happy heads
Back into the raging storm
Swallow came in from the storm
High above the happy heads
Flew through the merry hall
Back into the raging storm
What’d you go and do that for ?
Didn’t have to be this way
What’d you go and do that for?
Didn’t have to be this way
What’d you go and do that for?
Didn’t have to be this way
Doesn’t make sense at all
Doesn’t make sense at all
What’d you go and do that for?
Didn’t have to be this way

Sure was a lucky man
Once was a lucky man
Sure was a lucky man
What’d you go and do that for?
Didn’t have to be this way
What’d you go and do that for?
Sure was a lucky man
Doesn’t make sense at all
Doesn’t make sense at all
Once was a lucky man
Is it written in the stars above
Or written in these hands of ours?
Written in the stars above
Or written in these hands of ours?
Written in the books of old
Written in the rocks and stones?
Doesn’t make sense at all
Doesn’t make sense at all
What’d you go and do that for?
Didn’t have to be this way

When I go, let me go
When I go, let me go
When I go, let me go
When I go, let me go
Lay me down in Lovers field
Lay me down in Lovers field
Lay me down in Lovers field
I’m going back to Lovers field
I’m going back to Lovers field
I’ll see you all in Lovers field
I’ll see you all in Lovers field
Where all the lovers go
Where all the lovers go
What’d you go and do that for?
What’d you go and do that for?

"Lowdown"

"Lowdown"

If I had the sun and the moon
and all the stars of the brightest night
I'd make your every hour high noon

I know that you've been lying

I know that you've been lying to me

Everyone should know their place
but I find it so hard to leave
You wear your face behind your face
and you know me baby
I wear my heart on my sleeve

I know that you've been lying
I know that you've been lying
I know - yes I know - that you've been lying to me

That's the lowdown - yeah
That's the showdown - yeah
That's the breakdown - yeah
That's the runaround

That's the lowdown - yeah
That's the showdown - yeah

That's the run run run runaround - yeah

That's the lowdown shakedown comedown fall down shakedown fall down
