"B.B. Class Road"

"B.B. Class Road"


We're driving down the highway seven days a week
Looking for a number one looking rather bleak
Well I'm a roadie what a job being a roadie
I'm a roadie B.B. Class Road
I get them to the gig on time it's not so hard to do
They only way to break a crime speeding is the thing to do
Well I'm a roadie what a job being a roadie
I'm a roadie B.B. Class Road

Well I'm really really really really tired today
I've been checking my gear all night
You know what they're all gonna say
Someday you're gonna miss a flight
Well I'm a roadie here today and truckin all the same
I'm a roadie B.B. Class Road B.B. Class Road B.B. Class Road

"Bad Night At The Whiskey"

"Bad Night At The Whiskey"


Pushed me off the street today
The lamp light gets in the way
On the darkness you pushed me in
You say that it's a sin we're hangin' around

You told me not to sing today
You say my music gets in the way
Cause he walks on in just as you begin
Bringin' my soul brothers down

And although you're smiling
Your hate will not cease
So just face yourself babe
And leave my soul in peace

Well I'll stay out of your way
If you keep out of mine
Find the good lookin' people go
Oh you know we'll both go down in time

"Bag Full Of Money"

"Bag Full Of Money"


Floating I'm floating on down through the sky
Never had no ambition to learn how to fly
I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land
With this bag full of money I've got in my hand

Oh I grew up believing in Jesse and Frank
Cause I never had nothin' or noone to thank
And I came pretty close to unloadin' a bank
But I was saved by my draft board who made me a yank

Floating I'm floating...

And in the 101st they busted your hump
But they taught me a man isn't always a chump
In the course of Korea I learned how to jump
In the card game of life I was holding a trump

Floating I'm floating...

If you can't get a job and they think you're insane
If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain
And you wake up some mornin' with nothin' but pain
It was then I decided to grab me a plane

Floating I'm floating...

With all of my training it wasn't too tough
Now I'm through taking orders and all of their guff
Gonna buy a Rolls Royce and some luxury stuff
Cause a veteran's pension ain't nearly enough

Floating I'm floating...

"Ballad Of Easy Rider"

"Ballad Of Easy Rider"


The river flows
It flows to the sea
Wherever that river goes
That's where I want to be
Flow river flow
Let your waters wash down
Take me from this road
To some other town

All he wanted
Was to be free
And that's the way
It turned out to be
Flow river flow
Let your waters wash down
Take me from this road
To some other town

Flow river flow
Past the shaded tree
Go river, go
Go to the sea
Flow to the sea

The river flows
It flows to the sea
Wherever that river goes
That's where I want to be
Flow river flow
Let your waters wash down
Take me from this road
To some other town

"Blue Canadian Rockies"

"Blue Canadian Rockies"


In the blue Canadian Rockies
Spring is silent through the trees
And the golden poppies are blooming
'Round the banks of Lake Louise

Now, oh, how my lonely heart is aching tonight
For that girl I left behind
And, oh, what I'd give if I could be there tonight
With the sweetheart who's waitin' for me

In the blue Canadian Rockies
Spring is silent through the trees
And the golden poppies are blooming
'Round the banks of Lake Louise

Across the sea they call me
And on and on a love so true
For the blue canadian rockies
And the one I love to see
And the one I love to see

"Born To Rock'N'Roll"

"Born To Rock'N'Roll"


Some people born in old Kentucky
They think they're living in a tunnel mine of coal
Other people born not quite so lucky
Giving everything by selling out their soul

I know that everybody's born for something
Just to feed them and keep them from the cold
Sometimes you get to do the things your meant to
And I know that I was born to rock n roll

Born to rock n roll satisfy your soul gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul
Gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul
Gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul

Always wanted to be a fireman just to steer the hook and ladder from behind
Then I thought I'd be a great inventor
But I found it might be too hard on my mind
I know that everybody's born for something
Just to feed them and to keep them it's all in the cards you hold
Yes I said I believe in magic and I believe that I was born to rock n roll

Born to rock n roll satisfy your soul gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul
Gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul
Gonna rock n roll satisfy your soul [Repeat to end]

"Borrowing Time"

"Borrowing Time"


Good-bye I won't be long
I am on my way back home
So much I've got to say
I hope you'll understand my way

Borrowing time
You know it just ain't right
It's so hard to believe
All that's passed behind

I've been gone so long
At times I can't tell right from wrong
Stay away from sleepless nights
Waiting for the morning light
Why do you worry
Why do you cry
Come tomorrow morning
All your fears will die

Good-bye I won't be long
I'm on my way back home
So much I've got to say
I hope you'll understand my way

"Boston"

"Boston"


Spoke to my girl on the phone t'other day
She said she wish I'd come there right away
In Boston Massachusetts where she lives
Got to get there for the love she gives

Catch a plane and soon I will be gone
And I'll be in her arms before too long
In Boston Massachusetts she'll be there
And we'll be together everywhere

You see I'm leaving cause I'm sad
Got a girl and I want to see her bad
You see I'm not leaving 'cause of you
I just can't stand to sit here feeling blue

Can't go on when I don't like this town
I feel so bad not having her around
In Boston Massachusetts where she lives
Got to get there for the love she gives

"Bound To Fall"

"Bound To Fall"


Just as everythings going fine
Lose my grip and slide
Bounce the rock and and catch the ball bound to fall
Fall stumble or toe the line
See my face and hide
Catch the tears I've cried
From reality it seems I've strayed
Tired of all the silly games I play
Da da da da.

From reality it seems I've strayed
Tired of all the silly games I play
Just as everythings going fine
See my life in rhyme
Hear my hand slip from the wall bound to fall
Fall, stumble and reaching blind
Oh, how hard I've tried
Possibly I've died
