"Never Kill Another Man"

"Never Kill Another Man"


When the wind blows you home
To the shores of home
Will you be one of those
Who killed another man

When the wind blows you home
To the shores of home
Will you be one
Who killed another man
Killed another man
Killed another man
Killed another man

If I can make it through this life
If I can make it through this life
If I can make it
If I can make it
I'll never kill another man
As my time rolls out
As my time rolls out
If I can make it
If I can make it
I'll never kill another man with these hands
Never kill another man

"Never Say No"

"Never Say No"


Out working on the virgin ground
Waitin' for the time I could head to town
All those pretty girls, I'll be looking for the pearl
That could bring me up and ease me down

Flying down the dusty road
Little foreign wheels putting on a show
My thoughts are hazy about this girl
Might make me crazy, I bet she will
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no
You better say never say no

Then she stopped to my surprise
Little foreign wheels want to cross the line
With her voice so soft
Turned the poppin' Johnny off
Then I began to realize
She said her daddy needs to know
'Bout this ol' boy 'fore he lets her go
I'll work for him, then time will tell
He'll get to know me, I bet he will

Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no
Never let me hear ya say ya gotta go
No, never say, never say no
Never let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no, no
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no
Never let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no, no
Don't ever say, never say no
Never let me hear ya say ya gotta go
Never say, never say no
Never let me hear ya say ya gotta go

"No More Doggin'"

"No More Doggin'"


No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
I'm gonna let you out, baby
'Cause that's what I have to do

Well, I give you all my money
Played me for a fool
You know, pretty baby
That's against daddy's rule

No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
I'm gonna let you out, baby
'Cause that's what I have to do

Well, you told me you loved me
That was just a lie
I'll love you, baby
Until the day I die

No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
I'm gonna let you out, baby
'Cause that's what I have to do

Well, I took you off the streets
And I made you fine
Spent all my money on
Whiskey, beer and wine

No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
I'm gonna let you out, baby
'Cause that's what I have to do

No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
No more doggin'
Foolin' around with you
I'm gonna let you out, baby
'Cause that's what I have to do

"Nobody But You Baby"

"Nobody But You Baby"


I don't want nobody to tell me 'bout what to do
Nobody to tell me 'bout me and you
Nobody to tell me 'bout what to do
Nobody to tell me 'bout me and you
Oh baby, nobody but you, baby
Nobody, nobody but you, baby
Nobody

Baby, when I see you walking down the street
Baby, I can tell we're on a winning streak
Nobody can tell me 'bout what to do
Cuz baby I know that your love is true
Oh baby, nobody but you, baby
Nobody, nobody but you, baby
Woo, nobody, nobody but you, baby
Nobody, nobody but you, woo baby
Nobody

Baby, when I see you walkin' down the street
Baby, I can tell we're on a winning streak
Nobody can tell me 'bout me and you
Cuz baby I know that your love is true
Woo baby, nobody but you, baby
Nobody, woo baby, nobody but you, baby
Woo nobody, nobody but you, baby
Nobody, nobody but you, baby

"Nothing Lasts"

"Nothing Lasts"


All the things you think and say
Float away into space
Done in thought or done in haste
They have no place, they leave no trace

All the things you think and do
Have become a part of you
All your deeds have come to pass
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts

Like a river flowing past your windowpane
Life's never the same
Like the sun you're born to set
You'll die in sin
And be born once again

Now you know, so damn well
That your life is a heaven and a hell
And it's very easy to tell
When you're sick and when you're well

So the secret to this life
Is so very easy to learn
If you ever love another
Never ask for anything in return

Like a river flowing past your windowpane
Life's never the same
Like the sun you're born to set
You'll die in sin
And be born once again

All the things you think and say
Float away into space
Done in thought or done in haste
They have no place, they leave no trace

All the things you think and do
Have become a part of you
All your deeds have come to pass
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts

"One In A Million"

"One In A Million"


Oh, I'd like to be like a bird up in the sky
Hoppin' from branch to branch and learning to fly
I'd fly right over the hill
Right to your window sill, your window sill
I'm just crazy about you darlin'
You're one in a million

Or I'd like to be like a fish down deep in the sea
Swimmin' from canyon to canyon and feeling free
I'd pull up on your line
Let you catch me any time, any time
I'm just crazy about you darlin'
You're one in a million

Or I'd like to be like a great big bumble bee
I'd live in a hive that was hangin' from your tree
I'd make sweet honey for you
That's just what I would do, only for you
I'm just crazy about you darlin'
You, you, you
You're one in a million

"Out Of The Night"

"Out Of The Night"


Out of the night
You came movin'
Out of the night
Movin' so cool

Lookin' for a lover
Lookin' for a friend
You must surely be some new kind of cool

Out of the night
You came running
Didn't have to baby
But you just couldn't stop

Said that you love me
But you won't tell me why
You better watch it
Watch it, watch it, watch it, watch it
Pretty baby or you're gonna make me cry

I wear my heart on my sleeve
You know the one I love, I'll never leave
I'm not blind to the shining light
Of a heart that's true in the middle of the night

Out of the night
You came movin'
Out of the night
Movin' so cool

Say that you love me but don't tell me why
You got to want me, want me, want me
Got to want me pretty baby
Or you're gonna make me cry
Take me for a lover, take me for a friend
Cuz you know if you do
I will stay here with you to the end

I wear my heart on my sleeve
You know the one I love, I'll never leave
I'm not blind to the shining light
Of a heart that's true in the middle of the night

Out of the night
And into the dawn
We keep movin', movin', movin', movin', movin'
Pretty baby, we keep movin' on

Don't worry 'bout tomorrow
Or yesterday
We got to live this life
That we love from day to day to day to day to day

"Overdrive"

"Overdrive"


Well, the room is a cyclone
And you are in the eye
There ain't no movement
Things that could die
But the reelin' and the spinnin'
Of the rock and roll sides
Will all be gone before midnight
And die before sunrise

You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive
If you know what it is
And you wanna stay alive
You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive

Yes, the corner's full of monkeys
And your ear drum's full of lies
Time is out the window
And there's echoes in your sides
They've been burnin' down your walls
Ever since the peep of dawn
And now the dealer's in the fireplace
Tryin' to turn it on

You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive
If you know that it's time
And you oughtta take a dive
You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive

Go to overdrive
Go to overdrive
You know what it is
And you wanna stay alive
You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive

Now the light road's gettin' restless
Cause he knows your overdue
But it's just another train ride
Bein' all the same to you
And the last shot's at your finger tips
Like that flicker in the grass
And the last cord hits the ashes
And you know you gotta pass

You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive
If you know that it's time
And you oughtta take a dive
You better go to overdrive
Go to overdrive

"Perfect World"

"Perfect World"


Here I lie, feel like crying
It's no surprise, I just keep on trying
If you're out there somewhere tonight
Would you think of me, ooo-eee

Baby we live in two separate worlds
Sure ain't living in a perfect world
So I'm calling out wherever you may be
Ooo-eee

I'm all alone
Remember your touch
I'm all alone
I think I love you too much
And I know wherever you are tonight
You'll begin to see

Baby we live in two separate worlds
Sure ain't living in a perfect world
So I'm calling out wherever you may be
Ooo-eee

So you're in the country
Where the air is so pure
You know that's me who's knocking
Baby, knocking on your door

And if you're flying in a plane
High up in the sky
You know I'm calling out your name
You know that baby I'm your guy, yeah

Miles between us
And we count the days
Miles between us
And there's two separate ways
I'm with you even when you're far away

Baby we live in two separate worlds
Sure ain't living in a perfect world
So I'm calling out wherever you may be
Oh, oh, oh

Baby we live in two separate worlds
Sure ain't living in a perfect world
I'm with you even when you're far away

Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
Calling out wherever you may be
