Queen of hearts


She was the keeper of all my reason,
Possessor of all I owned,
She kept me on the edge of darkness
With words as cold as stone.
Then you came along,
Your eyes were flashing with desire,
Oh babe, you got me burning, so much
You got my soul on fire.

Honey, you move me,
You got me so I can't sleep at night,
You tell me you believe in me,
And you say you're gonna treat me right.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
They say that love's a gamble,
But, I got the Queen of Hearts.

If I could touch the crystal silence
That we have after making love,
Just to tell you I need you here
In the glow of the stars above.

If you ever leave, or deceive,
Or fool around,
You could be right,
You could be wrong,
But, woman, I know I'll miss you
When you're gone.

Honey, you move me,
Like the wind thro' a willow tree.
Ain't no doubt about it, baby,
You make the blindman see.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy Roller,
They say that love's a gamble,
But, I got the Queen of Hearts.

You drive me crazy when you walk,
Crazy when you talk,
Crazy when you walk with me.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
Gonna tell you, holy roller,
You're the Queen of Hearts.

(Solo)

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
You're the Queen of Hearts...

Faster than a
bullet from a
gun.

Belgian tom's hat trick


I have often told you stories
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay

But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be...
A soldier of fortune

Many times I've been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thougt my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here

Now I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be...
A soldier of fortune
Yes, I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune

Don't mess with me


I'm getting ready
I'm in the mood to fool around
It's time for action
Now the boys are back in town
So turn up the music
Make it loud and proud
Let's see reaction
Let the spotlite hit the crowd
Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher
Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the night
You got the fire
I feel your fire in my soul
You got the fever
Cos you were born to rock an' roll
Don't run for cover
I'm gonna show you what I've learned
Just come a little closer
Come on an' get your fingers burn
Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher
Now are you ready to rock
Are you ready to roll
Are you ready to rock
Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the night
I'm getting ready
I'm in the mood to fool around
It's time for action
Cos now the boys are back in town
Don't hide what you feel inside
Don't let anybody stand in your way
Just let the music take you higher
Now are you ready to rock
Children of the Night
Are you ready to roll
Children of the night

Lie down (a modern love song)


You got the smile of a Monalisa,
Know it all an' giving nothing away.
You make the sins of a vestal virgin,
Look nothing more that a roll in the hay.

So lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care.

You give an air of the Dolce Vita,
Society's made a queen out of you.
Casanova couldn't take all your virtue,
But, rock 'n' roll is gonna steal it from you.

So lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care.

Come on, girl, it'll be alright,
Easy does it nice and slow.
Woah, you know, mama, that tonight's the night,
Come on and let your feelings show.

Take a look in the mirror,
Tell me what you see.
If it ain't sweet surrender
You can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me.

So lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care.
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care.

(Solo)

Take a look in the mirror,

Love to keep you warm


If you want love,
You gotta be cool
And if you deny it,
Then baby you're a fool.
I'm telling you now,
Don't you hide it away.
Because you need to keep you warm both night and day.

I could come home
Late at night
And after some loving,
Baby, it would be alright.
I've given up trying
Lying my way.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.

I said baby, if you need my love
You better come home with me.
Maybe if you want my love,
You know you got it easily.
But, when the sun goes down
And the night is cold,
You know I won't be far away.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.

You gotta have love.

(Solo)

If you want schooling baby
I'll be around,
I'm ready for fooling
But, don't hang around.
And every morning I know I will say.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day.

I said baby, if you need my love
You better come home with me.
Maybe if you want my love,
You know you got it easily.
But, when the sun goes down
And the night is cold,
You know I won't be far away.
Because you need love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day,
You gotta have love to keep you warm both night and day,
I said you need love to keep you warm both night and day.

Take me with you


Every time I see my baby home,
I wanna kiss a little better so I get stoned.
Gonna spread her pretty legs so I can see,
Sweet lip honey be the death of me
And I will discover you'll be my midnight lover,
Oh babe, bring it on home to me.

Sometimes when I'm feeling low,
I go looking for a lover where the bad girls go.
Sorry little girl, If you can't stay,
Your red light mama gonna show the way.

And then a certain madness,
Will 'crease my heart with sadness
Oh babe, bring it on home to me.
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs,
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs.

I know love and what it means,
It's a skinny little girl in tight ass jeans.
I love to hear'em moan and cry,
'Cos God made men to satisfy.
And with the fire returning,
I feel the fever burning
Oh babe, bring it on home to me.

Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs,
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs.
Oh, take me with you.

Trouble


I was raised a gambler's son
And before I could walk,
I had to learn how to run.
And I never, never ever
Played a loaded dice.
But, I rolled a lot of women
With a heart as cold as ice.

On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Always coming my way,
Trouble always coming my way.

Baby I'm lonely, I'm out of control,
I need someone to understand
The badness in my soul.
Though I never, I never
Stole another man's wife
But, I fooled around plenty enough
And I got what I paid for.

On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Trouble always coming my way.

Trouble.

(solo)

On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Trouble always coming my way.

Trouble always coming my way, trouble always coming...
