"Just Hit Town"

"Just Hit Town"


Well, I just hit town and I flew in by the seat of my pants,
Well, I just touched down and got me some crazy plans.
I'm an ace, I'm a deuce, I'm a buzzin' all over the land,
And it ain't no use to change the way I am.
The way I am.....oh yeah...

Well, I just touched base, been in motion for a hundred days,
I'm wound up like a motor or a rocket in outer space.
I'm an ace, I'm a deuce, wont you put my mind at ease,
Well, I cant slow down, got to take some more of these.
More of these....oh yeah....ahhhhhh...

Wont you give me the green light, give me a chance to move,
Turn on your love-light, you know that I approve.

Well, I just touched ground and I got in by the seat of my pants,
I ain't broken down but I found a new place to land.
I'm an ace, I'm a deuce. I'm a crazy free-range man,
And it ain't no use to change my open plan.
Open plan....oh yeah...

Well, I'm feeling kinda crazy, want to go on a mad-cap spree,
Step on my air-brakes, I gonna let off some steam.
I'm an ace, I'm a deuce, I'm flyin' all over the land
And it ain't no use to change the way I am.
I'm an ace, I'm a deuce, I'm flyin' all over the land
And it ain't no use to change the way I am.
Yeah...
The way I am.
Thank you mam.

"Just The Smile"

"Just The Smile"


Just the smile that is spreading all over her face,
Could warm up the room and set fire to the place.
Yes it could, you know it could.

Now the fog is clinging all over the town,
Put one foot in front then you just might fall down.
On the ground, she's in town.

But like the rain that is falling all over the land,
She cools down my mind when she touches my hand.
Feels so good, yeah so good.

Just the smile that is spreading all over her face,
Could warm up the room and set fire to the place.
Yes she could, you know it could.

"Keychain"

"Keychain"


I need a keychain, to lock up all this trouble.
I need a fast train, leaving on the double.
I'm going someplace, that's hard to follow.
Got that feeling, that I should be long gone.

I'm as bad as I can get, playing Russian roulette.
I need a keychain, baby right now.

I'm playing no games, this ain't no water pistol.
Ain't it insane, there's no chance of missing.
No one holds me, you ain't got my number.
If you see me, just run for cover.

Well I'm as wild as I can get, I'm playing Russian roulette.
I got no keychain, baby right now.

Owww...

Owww...
Well I'm in a guided missile, and I'm lost in the sky.
I won't be returning, until things feel right.
I got a poison pen letter, ain't that all I need.
Some pretty woman's, trying to make a ghost of me.

I got no keychain, to lock up all my sorrow.
I need a fast plane, I'm leavin' in a hurry.
I'm going some place, where you can't follow.
I got that feeling, that I should be long gone.

Well I'm as mad as I can get, I'm playing Russian roulette.
Need a keychain, baby, all mine.

"Kickback City"

"Kickback City"


They say this town will kill you
They say this town ain't got no soul
This town could take a child's smile
And turn it into stone
But don't you think I know that
This town has cut me to the bone
Trouble crawling up your back
Fear just eats your soul

You say this town will eat you up
You say this town ain't got no heart
You try to learn all your lines
And you try to play the part
With all this double dealing
I tell you brother you get smart
Here in kickback city
You're lost before you start

People in subways look nearly half dazed to me
Renting tomorrow investing in sorrow no belief

Faces in sidestreets hiding like angels for grace
Selling you sorrow renting tomorrow you're out of place

They say this town will kill you
They say this town ain't got no soul
They'll set you up and pull the stitch
Till you unravelled on the floor
But I won't let it beat me
Though trouble's knocking in my door
Somehow it's just your smile
That keeps me coming back for more
Here in kickback city
Feel I'm going down slow
Here in kickback city
Feel I'm going down slow

"Kid Gloves"

"Kid Gloves"


Well, they sprung me out of Quentin,
I'm back on the mob's payroll
They can buy my body
Sure they can't buy my soul.
I'm working out of Stockton
I'm weighing in at two -o -one
But there's a man in the front row
Sent down by the mob with a gun.
For Kid Gloves, I'm back out on the street.
Kid Gloves, the master to the beat
Kid Gloves, I'll do anything but dive.
We'll the bought me out of Quentin.
They've gone and placed their bets.
I've got to throw the fight
Just to save my neck.
Saying 'yes' to the set up
Made me feel so cheap
But the street felt so good
Now I've only got myself to beat
A deal is a deal
But you know I just can't win
The mob oughta know
My conscience is wearing thin
For Kid Gloves, I'm back in the ring
Kid Gloves, I'll fight anything
Kid Gloves, I'll do anything but dive.
Kid Gloves, I'm back on the street
Kid Gloves the master to beat
Kid Gloves, Ill do anything but cry,
Kid Gloves, I'm back on my feet
Kid Gloves, The master to beat
Kid Gloves, I'll do anything but cry
Kid Gloves, I'm back in the ring.
Kid Gloves, I'll fight anything
Kid Gloves I'll do anything but dive
Well, they burned me out of Quentin,
They've gone and placed their bets
I've got to throw a fight
Just to save my neck.
Saying yes to the set up
Made me feel so cheap
But the street felt so good
Now I've only got myself to beat
Kid Gloves, I'm back out on the street
Kid Gloves, the master to beat
Kid Gloves, I'll do anything but dive
Kid Gloves, I'm back in the ring
Kid Gloves, I'll fight anything
Kid Gloves, I'll do anything but cry
Kid Gloves, I'm faster on my feet
Kid Gloves, the master to beat
Kid Gloves, I'll do anything but dive

"Laundromat"

"Laundromat"


What do you think of that?
I'm sleeping down at the laundromat
If you should pass be sure to drop my bag

But I don't have no clothes to clean
To put inside the machine
One of the craziest place I've ever been

Come 'round and meet my friends
They'll be there with me right through to the end
Right through to the end
Right through to the end
Woah

Say I told you so
Maybe bad times come and go
You don't know that right now but then you'll never know

What do you think of that
I'm on the street like an old stray cat
If you should look for me you'd know exactly where to go

Well come 'round and meet my friends
Oh, they'll be there with me
With me to the end
With me to the end
Yeah

What do you think of that?
I'm sleeping down at the laundromat
If you should pass by drop right in

But I don't have no clothes to clean
To put inside the machine
One of the craziest place I've ever been

Oh, come around and meet my friends
They'll be there with me right through to the end
Right through to the end
Right through to the end
Right through to the end

"Let Me In"

"Let Me In"


Open up and let me in,
Can't you see about the shape I'm in.
I need your loving, it must be soon,
I know you really can be so cruel..oww..

I could be wrong and I could be right,
You're gonna keep me waiting all the night.
I'm breaking up now. Can't you tell?
I've been awake since I don't know when.

I may be right and I may be wrong,
You're gonna leave me waiting all night long.

That's not the way it ought to be,
Come on baby, won't you see by me.

I have waited, what's it gonna be?
In your world then, who's replacing me?
Can't you see just where you're placing me?

Open up and let me in,
Do something about the shape I'm in.
I need your loving and it must be soon,
I know you really can be so cruel.

"Livin' Like A Trucker"

"Livin' Like A Trucker"


Well I've been livin' like a trucker,
For a month or more.
Well, I'm steaming like a diesel,
That cannot feel it's throat.

Well, I'm closing all the windows,
Keeping out the rain.
But, I'm not complaining,
In fact I'd do it all again.
I'm a ramblin' man,
Cannot stop a travlin' man.

I've been singing for my supper,
But I never get to eat.
Well I queue up at the diner.
But I cannot find a seat.

Well, I've been livin' like a gypsy,
Feeling like a king.
Really feel like singin'..you know,
That's the mood I'm in.
I'm a ramblin' man,
Some kind of travlin' man.

You'll never catch me working 9 to 5,
That's for some people, but me I wanna ride.
All around the world, to the planets end,
I've seen some places, but more I ain't seen yet.

Yeah...

Lose an hour, gain an hour,
Somewhere on a map.
Flying through the time zone,
Another plane to catch.

Why I've always gotta see what's on the other side,
So I pack my bag.
Get on my way.
And catch my train and ride.

I've been livin' like a hawker,
In days both hot and cold.
Well, I'm sleeping if I have to,
Before the wagons roll.

Well, I've been hopin' and I've been prayin,
Since I was last here.
Tell your mama not to worry,
Come on baby, get on up here.

I'm a ramblin' man,
Some kind of travlin' man.

Well I've been livin' like a trucker,
For a month or more.
Well, I'm steaming like a diesel,
That cannot feel it's throat.

Well, I'm closing all the windows,
Keeping out the rain.
But, you won't hear me complaining,
In fact I'd do it all again.
I'm a travlin' man,
Some kind of ramblin' man.

Yes, I'd do it all again.
I'd do it all again, baby.
Travlin' man, travlin' man.
Yeah...
