"I Ain't Got You"

"I Ain't Got You"


I got women on the right of me
I got women on the left of me
I got women all around me
But I ain't got you

I got an Eldorado Cadillac
With a spare tire on the back
I got a charge account at the bank
But I ain't got you

I got a tavern, a package store
It's the number four forty-four
I got a mojo, don't you know?
I'm all dressed up with no place to go

I got an Eldorado Cadillac
With a spare tire on the back
I got a charge account at the bank
But I ain't got you

I got a tavern, a package store
It's the number four forty-four
I got a mojo, don't you know?
I'm all dressed up with no place to go

Got women on the right of me
I got women on the left of me
I got women all around me
But I ain't got you

Said, I ain't got you
Babe, I ain't got you
Ain't got you
Oh, what I gonna do?
Girl, I ain't got you

"I Want To Make The World Turn Around"

"I Want To Make The World Turn Around"


I don't want to live in a world of darkness
I want to live in a world of light
I don't want to live in a world that's heartless
I want to live in a world of sight
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Living in a world of justice
Living in a world of shame
Living in a world of freedom
Living in a world of pain
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Turn the darkness into light
Turn the hunger into life
Turn the wrong into right
Put an end to the strife
Turn the blindness into sight
Save a human life
Make the world turn around

I want to live in a world of gladness
I want to know what your heart is made of
Don't want to live in a world of sadness
I want to live in a world of love
Well you know, I want to make the world turn around

Living in a world of justice
Living in a world of light
Living in a world of freedom
Living in a world of sight

I want to send a message
To every boy and girl
I want to send a message
About the world
We got to build it up
Stop tearing it down
We got to build it up
Make the world turn around

"In My First Mind"

"In My First Mind"


Singing a song of love
Growing each day
Knowing how it's been
Living for today
I wanted to love you, babe
I swear I do know how
To go back is pointless
Understand this now

Our time, it hasn't been too long
It all seems to drift away
No more the past
It's the future
That I'm living for today
And if it's not getting you
Where ever you need to go
There's still a place in my heart
If you did not know this is so

In my first mind
You are so fine
All the good things you do
Are in my own time

In my second mind
I can see you grow
Feel you flow
It moves my soul, yeah

"Industrial Military Complex Hex"

"Industrial Military Complex Hex"


Feel like I'm livin' under some kind of hex
Livin' in here in this industrial military complex
Doesn't really help when I read Time magazine
Cause they only distort the scene
The sky is so hazy I can't even see the sun
Livin' here is like livin' under a gun
I really do wonder 'bout the United Nations
Why don't they face the situations

I'm a troubadour
Lookin' for a dream
I'm a troubadour
Lookin' for some dream

Lord, I'm so tired of payin' all of these dues
From Sunday to Sunday all I hear is bad news
Tired of the war and those industrial fools
Got to make it better cause I've got nothin' to lose

Ain't too clear to pay my income taxes
'Specially when I know it goes to kill the masses
Love to hear the President make it perfectly clear
How the donkeys and the elephants are police up here

I'm a troubadour
Lookin for a dream
I'm a troubadour
Lookin for some dream

Lord, I'm so tired of payin' all of these dues
From Sunday to Sunday all I hear is bad news
Tired of the war and those industrial fools
I've got to make it better cause I've got nothin' lose
Won't somebody help me cause I've gotten in my shoes
Those industrial military complex blues

"Italian X Rays"

"Italian X Rays"


I went to bed late last night
Pulled down the shade
And turned out the light

I fell asleep, and I began to dream
The most extraordinary beautiful dream
Incense and perfume filled the air
The sound of music was everywhere

I met a woman by a babbling brook
She was gifted, she was wise
She was reading a book
She talked about virtue
She talked about vice
She acted kinda naughty
But she looked real nice

I could see her body move
To the rhythm, to the beat
Of a powerful groove
Her lips are red
Her body is soft
She is a movin' volcano
Man, I mean she's hot

She got the long cool legs
She got the sexy sexy style
She got the cool sweet walk
She got the beautiful smile

When I awoke, it was the break of day
I got to go to work, I got to earn my pay
I am a man who works on the line
I'm the muscle, I'm the blood, I'm the overtime
I gotta lift that bail
Work my fingers to the bone
You know I can't stop the train
I gotta let it roll on

No need to dream about it anymore
Cuz I found my dream lover on the 13th floor
Incense and perfume filled the air
The sound of music was everywhere

I met a woman by a babbling brook
She was gifted, she was wise
She was reading a book
Her lips are red
Her body is soft
She is a movin' volcano
Man, I mean she's hot

No need to dream about it anymore
Cuz I found my dream lover on the 13th floor

She got the long cool legs
She got the sexy sexy style
She got the cool sweet walk
She got the beautiful smile

She got the long cool legs
She got the sexy sexy style
She got the cool sweet walk
She got the beautiful smile

Her lips are red
Her body is soft
She is a movin' volcano
Man, I mean she's hot

No need to dream about it anymore
Cuz I found my dream lover on the 13th floor

She got the long cool legs
She got the sexy sexy style
She got the cool sweet walk
She got the beautiful smile

She got the long cool legs
She got the sexy sexy style
She got the cool sweet walk
She got the beautiful smile

Doo wappa doo wappadoo wappa doot
Doo wappa doo wappadoo wappa doot
Doo wappa doo wappadoo wappa doot
Doo wappa doo wappadoo wappa doot
Ohh woo woo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ohh woo woo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ohh woo woo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ohh woo woo ooh ooh ooh ooh

"Jackson-Kent Blues"

"Jackson-Kent Blues"


I was down in Nashville just payin' my dues
Headed for Ohio when I read the news
'Bout the people demonstrating 'gainst the President's views
Four were shot down by the National Guard troops
Just like Uncle Sam I put on my fighting shoes
School shot down cause there's no more to lose
Now we're headed to D.C. two by twos
Cause those low down, profound, killin' four blues

Lookin' for my Congressman to make it well known
But the politicians already won't answer his telephone
Making in his office while they're shooting kids down at home
Worried about the voters but he won't be worried long

Silent majority still glued to the tube
Say CIA ain't lookin', FBI come unglued
Shot some more in Jackson just to show the world what they can do
While we're marching to D.C. cause there's too much to do

Give peace a chance
Give peace a chance
There's no turnin' back my friend
There's no turnin' back

When the President said that the tear gas is gone
The army's pulled out leavin' blood on the ground
The streets are empty and the crying's died down
You can be President if no one's around
Just like Kow Kow, you've heard it before
Get back gangster, don't you open that door
Space Cowboy's back to tell you the score
Nothing any good is gonna come from a war
Got those low down, profound, killin' four blues

Give peace a chance
Give peace a chance
Give peace a chance

"Jet Airliner"

"Jet Airliner"


Leavin' home, out on the road
I've been down before
Ridin' along in this big ol' jet plane
I've been thinkin' about my home
But my love light seems so far away
And I feel like it's all been done
Somebody's tryin' to make me stay
You know I've got to be movin' on

Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Goodbye to all my friends at home
Goodbye to people I've trusted
I've got to go out and make my way
I might get rich you know I might get busted
But my heart keeps calling me backwards
As I get on the 707
Ridin' high I got tears in my eyes
You know you got to go through hell
Before you get to heaven

Big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Touchin' down in New England town
Feel the heat comin' down
I've got to keep on keepin' on
You know the big wheel keeps on spinnin' around
And I'm goin' with some hesitation
You know that I can surely see
That I don't want to get caught up in any of that
Funky shit goin' down in the city

Big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's here that I've got to stay
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah

Big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's here that I've got to stay

Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Carry me to my home
Oh, Oh big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's there that I belong
