"May I Borrow Some Sugar From You"

"May I Borrow Some Sugar From You"



You don’t know me from Adam, madam
May I introduce myself to you?
I live one floor down below
I hear and know almost everything you do

I used to hear four feet dancin'
Now I’m countin' only two
May I borrow some sugar from you?

You can call me nosy neighbor
I’ll admit it’s mostly truth
But it’s hard to satisfy a cravin’
Can you relate to an old sweet tooth?

‘Cause coffee all alone every mornin’
Makes a bitter tastin’ brew
Can I borrow some sugar from you?

Don’t know how I got this feeling
Maybe it’s because your floor is my ceiling
At times I wish it would just crash on through

'Cause coffee all alone every mornin’
Makes a bitter tastin’ brew
May I borrow some sugar from you?

You don’t know me from Adam, madam
May I introduce myself to you?
I live one floor down below
I hear and know almost everything you do

I used to hear four feet dancin'
Now I’m countin' only two
May I borrow some sugar from you?

'Cause coffee all alone every mornin’
Makes a bitter tastin’ brew
Can I borrow a little sugar from you?

Well, I used to hear four feet dancin'
Now I’m countin' only two
May I borrow some sugar from you?

'Cause coffee all alone every mornin’
Sure makes a bitter tastin’ brew

"Me And Bobby Mcgee"
(originally by Roger Miller)



Busted flat in Baton Rouge headed for the trains
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
Took us all the way to New Orleans.

I took my har'poon out of my dirty red bandana
I was playin' sad while Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield whipers slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands
We finally sang up ever song that driver knew.

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
Feeling it was good enough for me good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standin' right beside me Lord through everything I done
Every night she'd keep me from the cold.

Somewhere near Salinas Lord Bobby slipped away
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find
I'd trade all of my tomorrows for just one yesterday
Holding her body close to mine.

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
Feeling it was good enough for me good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

[I'm A Ramblin' Man]

Well, I've been down to Mississippi
Down through New Orleans, yes, I have
I've played in California
There ain't too much I haven't seen, No there ain't.

Oh, I'm a ramblin' man
Don't fool around with any old ramblin' man.

[This Time]

This time, if you want me to come back
It's up to you
But remember I won't allow the things
You used to do.

Gonna have to toe the mark
And walk the line
This time will be
The last time.

[Don't You Think This Outlaw Bits Done Gone Out of Hand]

I'm for the law and order the way it should be
This song's about the night they spent protecting you from me
Don't you think this outlaw bit's done got out of hand
What started out to be a joke the law don't understand.

Was it singing through my nose that got me busted by the man
Maybe this here outlaw bit's done got out of hand.

[Clyde]

Clyde played electric bass
{layed it with finesse and grace
Set on the porch, ain't got no shoes
Pickin' that bass and singin' the blues.

[Good Hearted Woman]

Lord, she don't understand him
But she does the best that she can
She's a good hearted woman
In love with her good timin' man.

She's a good hearted woman
In love with a good timin' man
She loves him in spite of his wicked ways
That she don't understand.

Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good hearted woman
Lovin' her good timin' man.


[Ladies Love Outlaws]

Ladies love outlaws like babies love stray dogs
Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold
And outlaws touch the ladies
Somewhere deep down in their soul.

[Luckenbach Texas (Back In The Basics Of Love)]

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas
With Waylon and Willie and the Boys
This succesful life we're livin's
Got us feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys.

Between Hank Williams pain songs
And Newbury's train songs
And ''Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain''
Out in Luckenbach Texas
Ain't nobody feelin' no pain.

[I've Always Been Crazy]

I've always been crazy
It's kept me from going insane
Nobody knows if
It's something to blast heart of flame.

Till now I ain't found the rhyme
Or the reason to change
I've always been crazy
It kept me from going insane...

"Medley: That's All Right Mama / My Baby Left Me"


[That's All Right Mama]
Well, that's all right mama that's all right with you
That's all right mama anyway you do
Well, that's all right that's all right
That's all right mama, anyway you do.

Well, my mama she done told me papa done told me too
Son that gal you're foolin' with she ain't no good for you
Well, that's all right, that's all right
That's all right mama, anyway you do.

[My Baby Left Me]
Well, my baby left me she never said a word
Was it something that I've done or something that she heard
You know she left me, yeah she left me
Lord, my baby left me, never said a word.

Well Lord, I stand at my window, wring my hands and cry
I hate to lose that woman, hate to say goodbye
You know she left me, yes he left me
My baby, even left me, never said goodbye.

"Memories Of You And I"

"Memories Of You And I"



I thought to leave your bed
For the street was as simple as saying goodbye
I couldn't see how blind a man can be
Lord, how quickly life can fly.

As the lines in my face grow deeper
And the well of my soul runs dry
I find that I drink more and more
From the memories of you and I.

The taste of fame is fire to me no more
The tension and hunger are gone
All I have left are money in the game
I'm a prisoner too low I'm on.

As the lines in my face grow deeper
And the well of my soul runs dry
I find that I drink more and more
From the memories of you and I.

"Mental Revenge"

"Mental Revenge"


I hope that the friend
You've thrown yourself with
He gets drunk and loses his job
And every road that you travel on
Is dusty, rocky and hard
I couldn't make you love me
You only made me blue
So all in all, if the curtain should fall
Lord, I hope that it falls on you.

I will have sweet, sweet, sweet mental revenge.
I will have sweet, sweet, sweet mental revenge.

[Instrumental]

Well, I hope that the train
From Caribou Maine
Runs over your new love affair
You walk the floor
From door to door
And pull out your peroxide hair.

You never was my woman
'Cause you were never true
So all in all if the curtain should fall
Lord, I hope that it falls on you.

I will have sweet, sweet, sweet mental revenge.
I will have sweet, sweet, sweet mental revenge.

I will have sweetm sweet, sweet mental revenge...

"Midnight Rider"
(originally by The Allman Brothers Band)



I gotta run to keep from hidin'
I'm bound to keep on a ridin'
I got one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me
No I ain't gonna let 'em catch
A midnight rider.

Well, these ain't my clothes I'm wearin'
This old road goes on forever
I got one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me
No I ain't gonna let 'em catch
A midnight rider.

I've gone by the point of carin'
Some old bed I'll soon be sharin'
I got one more silver dollar
I ain't gonna let 'em catch me
No I ain't gonna let 'em catch
A midnight rider.

I ain't gonna let 'em catch me
No I ain't gonna let 'em catch
A midnight rider...

"Mississippi Woman"

"Mississippi Woman"



The reflections of the trees are cut by the bow of my pirogue
And spattered by the paddle of my eager hand
That Mississippi woman is a wavin' over yonder
Wavin' her lantern for her Louisiana man.

How I love that Mississippi woman
How I love that Mississippi girl
How I love that Mississippi woman
But her heart does not belong to me.

The lantern light and moonbeams are dancing patterns on the water
She doesn't seem to realize I've learned her secret plans
My jealous mind is thinking as I paddle through the sleeping alligators
She don't know I know about her Louisiana man.

How I love that Mississippi woman
How I love that Mississippi girl
How I love that Mississippi woman
But her heart does not belong to me.

The reflections of the trees are cut by the bow of my pirogue
And splattered by the paddle of my shaky hand
The silence from behind me is alive with the splashing alligators
And the lantern light is blinking on the bottom in the sand.

How I love that Mississippi woman
How I love that Mississippi girl
How I love that Mississippi woman
But her heart does not belong to me.

How I love that Mississippi woman
How I love that Mississippi girl
How I love that Mississippi woman
But her heart does not belong to me...
