"Back Door Man"

"Back Door Man"


I'm every man here in disguise
Lie cheat and give you a spoonful of lies
I'm a high toned mother with an axe to grind
Come a little closer honey, see what you find

Your worst nightmares all rolled in one
I'll find you sure as the rising sun
Don't make a noise it's understood
'Cos this ain't no story like red riding hood

I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man oh yeah
I'm your back door man, come on babe, And I'll take you where I can

Systematically I choose at will
But with you there's an obscene thrill
It's funny now how you can't say no
It's the smell of fear that you love so

I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man, oh yeah,
I'm your back door man baby, Just take it where you can

This first kiss has a touch of ice
Now how's that feel, it ain't so nice
Blackhearted mamma I've something new
Oh Lord look what I've turned into

[INSTRUMENTAL]

I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man

I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man

"Back Into My Life"

"Back Into My Life"


It's another night out on the avenue
Looking for something, something that you knew
And you're wondering where she is
Now there's now there's no more rendezvous

[1] You're left out here on this cold stark street
With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet
Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss
Where's that girl, the one you miss

Those ooh la la la girls in their skirts they go rushing by
They look around and give you that come on
With their dreamy dreamy eyes

Then you never stop to count your mistakes
That one blind moment with no give and take
Is lost in every stranger's face you see
If there's a loser that loser's me

[2] Please put a little love back into my life
Won't you please put a little love back into my life

Every night's another night you keep looking back
Trying to fill the spaces
Hours and the minutes and the missing gaps

[1 Repeat]

[2 Repeat]

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Every shadow's like a ghost that comes and haunts you
Angel of the night plays her tricks today it's true
With every step, every step you see her slip away
Not just today

It's another night out on the avenue
Looking for something, something that you knew

[1 Repeat]

"Bag O' Blues"

"Bag O' Blues"



Well my beautiful distraction
Where're you gone
Everything's closing where I belong
And it's bad news
I'm losing you
I got this bag full of blues

The black eye beyond
In a bitter bottle town
Everyone here wears a worried frown
I didn't get the choice to pick and choose
I got a bag full of blues

Darkness has fallen
I'm going south
They say that butter wouldn't melt
In your mouth
But my demise won't make the
Morning news
All I got is this
Bag full of blues

Shake me down now honey
I got nothing to lose
I got a bag full of blues

Oh, my beautiful distraction
Where're you gone
Everything's closing where
I don't belong
And it's a bad, bad day
'N bad news
I got a bag full of blues
A bag full of blues

Hey babe
A bag full of blues

"Ballad Of The Left Hand Gun"

"Ballad Of The Left Hand Gun"



What I want, what I got
Won't shine in an open lot
What I have, what I need
Is a taste for luxury greed
I spend money like a waterfall
Won and lost in the gambling brawl
My shoes speak Italian style
Out of fashion for a long long while

The names have changed
And the stories run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun
The names have changed
But the story runs
This is the ballad of the left hand gun

Forty years he played guitar
Forty years he hit up every bar
I hear the champ is past his prime
Lost it all on the spin of a dime
I have a clock up on the wall
Comes from China, don't tell the time at all
Women came and women went
Some were ugly and some heaven sent

The names have changed
And the stories run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun
The names have changed
It will run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun

All for nothing
All for small change
Here's for the glory
Here's for the strange

The names have changed
And the stories run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun
The names have changed
It will run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun

All for nothing
All for small change
Here's for the glory
Here's for the strange

"Belladonna"

"Belladonna"


Oh Belladonna never knew the pain
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe it'll drive you insane
The open letter just carelessly placed
And you move in silence, the tea so delicately laced

[1] Out of reach, out of touch
How you've learned to hate so much

Came from passion, and you gave it a name
The fingers are poisoned like needles in the drivin' rain
So smile discreetly as you watch with such grace
Now I must slip away, but can you forget my face

[1 Repeat]

"Between A Rock And A Hard Place"

"Between A Rock And A Hard Place"



I'm feelin' static
Nothing's moving here for me
Dead un-romantic
That's the way life's squeezin' me
I get the feelings
When I'm pushed in a situation
Like climbin' ceilings
This is a case of renegotiaion
I ain't the soft touch you think I am
Ain't no pussy to think you care

Between a rock and a hard place
I'll make sure you remember my face
Between a rock and a hard place
You're just something I will erase

I'll tell you something
That you never thought before
When I get dangerous
There's no such thing as outside the law
Let me tell you, for your information
You're gonna need rehabilitation

Between a rock and a hard place
I'll make sure you remember my face
Between a rock and a hard place
You're just something I will replace

There's no giving up, no more losing ground
Hang on in
We're gonna stick around, movin' up
You can't bring me down..

"Black And Blue"

"Black And Blue"



He walked into the sunset
He walked out of the dawn
He rode that Palomino
It was a one man storm

Oh is this the party
Ah I just got started

He disappeared fell down the cracks
He walked out never came back

Oh black and blue
What are we gonna do with you
Oh black and blue
I guess baby that we're through
Falling down the stairs
Falling out of cars
Lying in the gutter
Just looking at the stars
Oh black and blue
Who's been beating up on you?

Oh is this the party
Ahh I just got started

It was the biggest circus in town
They came from far and wide
Consuela and her sisters now
Couldn't hold the tide

She was a girl with a diamond smile
Lost herself on the golden mile

Oh black and blue
What are we gonna do with you
Oh black and blue
I guess baby that we're through
Falling down the stairs
Falling out of cars
Lying in the gutter
Just looking at the stars

Oh black and blue
What are we gonna do with you
Oh black and blue
I guess baby that we're through
Oh black and blue
Who's been beating up on you
Oh black and blue
We're stuck together
With just a little glue now

He was a man sad and over
Caught a bus back to California
Oh black and blue
Look what loves done to you
Who's been beating up on you
Out of this cuckoos nest
I guess you flew
Where are you tonight
Oh black and blue
Who's been beating up on you
Turn out the light
My baby's in flight

"Black Cold Coffee"

"Black Cold Coffee"


Captain Midnight and Captain Cruise
Out on the ocean like a storm of bad news
It took three monkeys in a plastic mac
To fit inside a paper sack

And they're cooking up an alibi
Cooking up some steam
Out in the madness
Somewhere in Orleans
They had a plan, they had a plot
Beggars and blues was all they got

Black cold coffee
Black Irish soup
Cold on a silver spoon
She's dancing through hoops

Baby's wishing on a wishing well
She's moving up and ringing her bell
Can't fly to heaven on a Persian rug
So put some coins in the old sailor mug

They travelled up together
From the coast
East of Aldgate
Silently like ghosts
They had a scam, they had a scheme
For drunks and bums counting beans

Black cold coffee
Black Irish soup
Cold on a silver spoon
She's dancing through hoops

[Solo]

Black cold coffee
Black Irish soup
Cold on a silver spoon
She's dancing through hoops

"Blinded By A Lie"

"Blinded By A Lie"


I got the information from a friend last night
And it looks so very different in black and white
I was "part of the second party", that was me
Signed away my life, really couldn't see

[1] Blinded by, blinded by a lie
Blinded by, blinded by a lie

I know it's just the price you pay
I know you're nothing

[1 Repeat]

Now you listen closely, don't you go away
There's a cut of something, in what I have to say
You keep the full deck from me, "Mr. Percent"
Through the legal jungle, who's the one that's bent?

[1 Repeat]

I know it's just the price you pay
I know you've nothin' to say
And oh boy every dog has it's day
I know you'll be the one to pay

[INSTRUMENTAL]

And now I see that I was

"Blue"

"Blue"


It's another night stuck in here, with the TV on
As John Wayne holds the Alamo, I'm wonderin' where you've gone
I just sit and wait, hope it's not too late
Say there's something left to prove it to you

Outside this house nothing's changed
Our street looks just the same
The things you left I'll keep that way
Till we're together again
When I just start to slip, yes I'll lose my grip
I can't believe you're gone, it's really true

[1] Blue, blue, oh baby where are you
Blue, blue, tell me know, it's not true

There's nothing romantic in a tear-drawn goodbye
Oh baby say it's a lie
Panic sets in, I'm an irrational man
If I can't have you nobody can

[1 Repeat]

Last night, I heard you talkin
Oh so close, whispering in my ear
All night, till the morning
I kept wishing I could feel you near
When we stood naked at the 4th of July
Moon shot took off, lit up the sky
The Red Sea was parting for the second time
The world at my feet, you were mine, it was..

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Lovin' you was so easy baby
Holdin' on when our luck was down
Sweetest thing that I ever, ever heard
Was "I'll always, always be around"

Blue, blue, oh baby, where are you
Blue, blue, gettin' desperate, desperate for you
