unknown

(rod stewart, ronnie lane, 1973)

If i'm late, darling, don't hesitate
Just go without me and i'll see you there anyway

If i miss you at the station
I want you on that train
I don't want a sad sack
'cause i'll be there come what may

Leave a message with the porter
Or leave it at the gate
Just let me know that you're aboard her
Just a word to know that you're safe

I walk from maryland to silvertown
I hoped to catch you in the street
I must have missed you by a moment dear
I tried the place we alway meet

So if i'm late darling, don't hesitate, no no
Go on your ownsome and i'll catch you there anyway

I might lose sometime babe
But if i do i'll make amends in an hour
When i'm laying down beside you

(r. stewart)

Sixteen years old, looking for a hideaway
I'm a set designer, my mum and dad
Thinking i'm gay
I'm a lazy bugger, but i like my sport
Like girls and music, i'm happy, happy sort
(of a guy)

But there's one thing i'm lacking
It's sexual experience
So i ask you, my sweetheart
Save me from this wilderness

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this

Where i come from, love is
Just a hole in the wall
And the steel mills ring out and generations
Heed the call
And the rain never stops and the skies are grey
And the chance of romance
Slim as a bright sunny day

This is partly the reason
I'm so overwhelmed and shy
Because your beauty, by contrast
Is gonna make a young man cry

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this
I've schemed, honey, of a night like this
You don't know what it means to a boy from
A suburban home
To be left with a woman like you
Completely alone

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this

Nice place you've got here, babe
Never seen a house like this
Pool like an ocean, bed like a football pitch
All the guys at the boozer, won't believe my luck
But it couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke
(than me)

So here we are, the record's
Gotten stuck in the groove
My knees are trembling, c'mon baby, make a move

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this
I've schemed, honey, of a night like this
I've dreamed, i've schemed, honey
Of a night like this
I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this

(r. stewart, j.cregan, k.savigar)

I met her in a little french cafe
Legs like a young giraffe
She was sitting reading baudelaire
Not exactly working class

She had a studio in st. michel
Crucifix around her waist
Che guevara all over the wall
She can't stand the sun on her face

Hey boys, what a look
Stop a train at fifty feet
Matching hair, matching clothes and eyes
Kinda like a tiger in heat
Red hot in black
Red hot in black

Revolution running through her veins
A radical from head to toe
The only record that she ever played
Was "just like a rolling stone"

We started talking by the candlelight
Her lips get closer to mine
We started dancing all around the room
Helped by a bottle of wine

Hey boys, mystery
Didn't even know her name
One night in paris, with a girl like that
Never going home again
Red hot in black
Red hot in black

Oh my, when i woke up
She'd already gone out to her work
My head was aching and my back was scratched
I've never, never, never known a night like that

Took a walk along the avenue
So in love and so confused
My plane was leaving in half an hour
What would you have done in my shoes?

Hey boys, so you see
Couldn't get her outa my head
My regards to the folks back home
Gonna spend some time with red
Red hot in black
Red hot in black

You know it ain't right to beat a man when he's down
Know it ain't right to eat when the hunger's around
It keeps on worryin' me, as all around i see
And still it goes on
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?

You know it ain't right to take another man's life
You know it ain't right to take another man's wife
Keeps gettin' through to me, as everywhere i see
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?

They don't want love today
It's headin' all the way
They'll burn your book and pencil boy
Throw your mind away

A man don't steal, but has to work for his pay
(let me tell you one thing)
A poker man deals from the top when he plays
But all good things we take
We don't build, we just break
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?

They don't want love today
It's headin' all the way
They'll burn your book and pencil boy
Throw your mind away

A man don't steal, but has to work for his pay
(let me tell you one thing)
A poker man deals from the top when he plays
But all good things we take
We don't build, we just break
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ?
Why does it go on ? yeah

Know i love you baby
Know i love you baby
You know i love you baby
You don't even know my name

Let me tell you baby
I tell you what i would do
I would rather be a big somebody
And come home to you

Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name

Let me tell you baby
Though it don't sound true
If you'd throw me in the ocean
I'd swim to the shore
And come home to you

Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name, alright

Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name, alright

Four o'clock in the mornin'
You come walkin' home
I ain't got no consolation
But to ring you on the phone

Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name
You don't even know my name
You don't even know my name

Oh i, never thought i'd feel this way
And as far as i'm concerned
I'm glad i've got a chance to to say
That i do believe i love you

And if i, i should ever go away
Well than close your eyes
And try to feel the way we do today
And then if you can't remember

Keep smiling (smiling)
Keep shining (shining)
Knowing you can always count on me
For sure
That's what friends are for
For the good times (good times)
And the bad times (bad times)
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for
Yeah

And i, though you heard it all before
Well i'll tell you one more time
So i can be completely sure
So you know how much i love
And if i should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we feel this day
And then if you can't remember

Keep smiling (smiling)
Keep shining (shining)
Knowing you can always count on me
For sure
That's what friends are for
Oh in good times (good times)
And in bad times (bad times)
I'll be on your side forevermore
That's what friends are for

You know you shook me,
You shook me all night long, yes you did.
You know you shook me,
You shook me all night long.
And the way that you love me baby, (you know what you do?)
You mess up my happy home.

(dig this)
You know you love me,
Just like a hurricane.
You know you love me,
Just like a hurricane.
And the way that you love me baby,
You mess up my happy home, (you're so bad).

Released on cd single have i told you lately, 1993
Mike reid, troy seals

Call me a fool

It's you i adore
Alone and in love
Falling apart
I followed my heart
Straight to your door
Face to face

One night, could it be that i was born
To make every dream you never had come true
Oh oh oh oh
One night, just one night with you

Call me baby

Standing this close
The sound of your voice
Leaves me no choice
Am i so worng
To think ( )
'cause baby you're all
You're all i'm thinking of
Face to face
With all honesty
I would be greatful
If you'd give to me

One night, to lay in your arms
One night, could it be that i was born
To make every dream you've ever had come true
Oh oh oh oh
One night, just one night with you

One night, to lay in your arms

Walk me out in the morning dew, my honey.
Please walk me out in the morning dew, sometime.
Can't walk you out in no morning dew. i'm sorry, i'm sorry.
Can't walk you out in no morning dew.

Thought i heard a young man cryin'.
Thought i heard a young man cryin' today.
You didn't hear no young man cryin'.
You did not hear no young man cryin'.

Thought i heard a young girl cryin'.
Thought i heard a young girl cryin'.
You, you did not hear no young girl cryin'.
I'm sorry but you know it is [true].
You did not hear no young man cryin'.

Now there is no more morning dew.
Now there is no more morning dew.
What they've been saying all these god-darn' years has come true,
I knew it would too.
Now there's no more morning dew.

Now there is no more morning dew, at all, oh.
Now there is no more morning dew.
Because, because, because,
What they've been saying all these years has come true,
You know, and only you know,
That there's no more morning dew.

Now, now there is no more morning dew.
People, you know that there's no more morning dew.
Because, because,
What they've been saying all these years has come true,
It had to happen.
You know, that there's no more morning dew.

People were standing, all around
At a shot gun wedding, here in this town
And i'm a victim oh yea
Of a shotgun wedding
Cause your fathers got a gun
And there ain't no place to run
Shotgun wedding and oh listen to me

Well i got to find a job
You, me, baby makes three
Shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, wedding oh yea
Cause your fathers got a gun
And there ain't no place to run
Shotgun wedding
And all i could hear that day was
Do you take this woman
To be your lawful wedded wife
My my my my shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun wedding
I looked around
I looked around
And all i could see was a shotgun wedding....listen

But i tried to run from town
But her mother tracked me down
She said before i meet my maker,
Some mans gonna make an honest woman of my daughter
So it might as well be you
Oh daddy may be poor
But he owns a forty forty
Shotgun wedding
And oh i'm walking up the aisle right now

Here comes the bride singing
Shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun.....yea yeaaaa

Nobody could stop me now oh shotgun, shotgun
Just give me one more chance
Let me hear that bass boys that bass boys
Breaking my heart

Breaking my heart........

(stewart, cregan, savigar)

Here we go babe putting each other down
I don't know how long this love will last
If we keep kicking it around
We threaten each other with leaving
Neither one of us giving in
We're walking on thin ice baby
I don't wanna see it end

And oh i've never let any woman this close to me
Don't let me down
Put in some trust don't give up on us
Strangers again
We should talk it over
Strangers again
Let's make love and say we're sorry
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, don't let it go

I can't stand the silence
When we don't get along
Both of us believing
That the other must surely be wrong
So strange how two people
Can be so very cruel
Both of us should know by now
Neither one's the other one's fool

And oh i've never let any woman this close to me
So don't let me down
Put in some trust don't give up on us
Strangers again
We should talk it over
Strangers again
Let's make love and say we're sorry
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, don't let it go

Oh i've never let any woman this close to me
So don't let me down
Why don't ya put in some trust
Don't give up on us
Strangers again
We should talk it over
Strangers again
Let's make love and say we're sorry
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, don't let it go
Strangers again
I don't know what happened
Strangers again
Yesterday was full of passion
Strangers again
We both need a shoulder, don't let it go

(oscar hammerstein ii and jerome kern)

Old man river, that old man river,
He don't say nothin', but he must know somethin'
That old man river, he just keeps rolling along.

He don't plant tater's,
And we all know he don't pick cotton.
But them that plant 'em, are soon forgotten, that
Old man river, he just keeps rolling along, oh yes he does.

You and me, we sweat and toil,
Our bodies all achin' and racked with pain, now listen!
Lift that bar, you'd better, tote that bail,
And if ya' get a little drunk,
You'll land in jail.

I'm so weary, and sick of tryin',
I'm tired of livin', but afraid of dyin'.
That, that god-darn' old river, he just keeps rolling along.
Keep on rollin' along.

Keep on rollin' along.
Old man river don't you stop your way.
Keep on runnin' from the north, the south, the east or west,
You gotta roll it ...

when i first saw you this strange kind of feeling set my head a-reeling
Like i hit the ceiling.
The same thing happened to me then, baby.
Something kind of crazy and everything went hazy.

Lightning and thunder shook the ground.
And i could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.

My, have you never been set on fire?
Burning with desire growing higher and higher.
Like on a funny fair big wheel stopping when you are to topping,

The you feel it dropping

Rising and heaven falling down.
And i could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.

I took my breath as though i've been running.
Quite completely stunning, holy, overcoming.
And in a funny way it seemed frightening.
Tension and a hardening

Thunder and the lightning
And i've grown the singer who wrote that song.
And i could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.

I could feet the whole world turn round when you're near me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.

I could feet the whole world turn round underneath me.
I could feet the whole world turn round when you're near me.
I could feet the whole world turn round.

(rod stewart, ron wood)
Sweatin' hard, i didn't get a shower
All i did was stand around and get too hot
Knowin' all the people walkin' on my side
Losin' all my money and i'm killin' time
Ol' bill he come a-runnin' like he's gettin' some
Makes you kind of jealous but it sure is fun
I don't mind but he wants my lady too

You know the crowd gets bigger
As the word goes 'round
Pool hall king was playin' back in town
Minnesota fats standin' up at the back
Tryin' to hide himself in a plastic mack
You ought to hear the silence
When the kid walks in
His reputation's bigger than gasoline
I don't mind but he's tryin' to fill my lady too, ha ha

Pool hall richard
You're far too wicked we know, ha
Pool hall richard
Kid you're wicked, we know
You broke my heart
Same as you ... could ever do

With your yellow carnation
And your pink satin shoe
You make me jealous, but i worship you
One day soon i'm gonna beat you clean
Wipe that smile right off your chin
Everybody gonna drive from miles around
Cuein' up to see me take away your crown
Then you'll never never ever take my lady then

Get out

Pool hall richard
You're far too wicked we know, ha
Pool hall richard
Kid you're wicked, we know
You broke my heart
Same as you ... could ever do

Dig this

Bam goes the brown, that's another one down
Know they play much better when the sun goes down
Bang goes the green, you're so obscene
Your hands are dirty but your scent is clean

Bam goes the blue, lock away your cue
The pool hall king is hustlin' you
Bam goes the 8-ball, didn't see it spin at all
This kid can play, oh yeah

Bam goes the brown, ooh another one down
Know they play much better when the sun goes down
Bang goes the green, you're so obscene
Your hands are dirty, your scent is clean

Damn the pink, one more to sink
Gonna beat you someday
'cause you're makin' me sick
Down on the black, at the back of the pack
Aw, you nearly missed, you ain't so hot

Pool hall richard
Kid you're wicked, we know
You broke my heart
Same as you ... could ever do

You're breakin' my heart
But you're stealin' my tart, no no no
Shut up

(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger, appice)

Call the girls and dress up fine
Tonight i felt like suicide
Roll them dice and pour the wine
Shuffle them cards and deal them fine
Got nobody to kiss tonight
Nothing to lose but my appetite

Wanna be silly and sing and shout
Gotta get legless and fall about
Turn the music up nice and loud
Cheer me up don't bring me down
Gonna lose my job next week
Getting replaced by a silicone chip

I might have been a hero
But i chose to stay in bed
I might have been prime minister
But right now honey i'm better off dead

I might have been a hero
But i chose to stay in bed
I might have been prime minister
But right now honey i'm better off dead

Don't like the scenery don't like the set
Tear it all down and start again
Man keeps talking on the radio
Telling me what i don't wanna know
Radiation wars and layatril
If tax don't get ya then cancer will

I might have been a hero
But i chose to stay in bed
I might have been prime minister
But right now honey i'm better off dead

I might have been a hero
But i chose to stay in bed
I might have been prime minister
But right now honey i'm better off dead

Better off dead, better off dead
Better off dead, better off dead

(rod stewart, ron wood, ronnie lane)

I'm flying across the ocean
And i'm soaring back home
To the place i was born and probably raised.
And i'm flying across the mountains and valleys,
Back home to the one that i love so happily.

Can ya' blame me for feeling homesick
'cause i've been away such a very long long time ?
I served a while in the county jail, five years for
For bein' hungry tired and poor, i got worried so.

On and on this i will follow with your buttons and bows.
On and on this i will follow, all alone,
You know i will follow with your buttons and bows,
With your buttons and your bows.
On and on i'm flying across the ocean, going home.

I'm flying across the ocean
Goin' home, hoo hoo

(the rise and fall of a budding gigolo)
(r. stewart, k. savigar, j. davis)

Well i arrived on time
My courduroy suit and me bottle of wine
There were women wall to wall
It's saturday night and i wanted them all
Everyone

Sidled up for a dance
I tried a new step and fell in the plants
I told a joke, about the pope
It wasn't as funny as i would've hoped

Nobody told me she was the daughter
Of the mayor
I was so embarrassed, i just wished the
Ground would swallow me up
Accidentally my elbow hit the record player
The rock 'n' roll stopped
And everybody just stared
(oh no)

Who's gonna take me home
I'm tired and i wanna go to bed
Who's gonna take me home
This party's gone right to my head

I didn't worry, not me
Panic ain't in my vocabulary
Smashed beyond reproach
Suddenly i wanted to take off my clothes

All hell broke loose
I started to take off my trousers and shoes
And so i tried to look cool
I stepped back and fell in the pool

The hostess helped me out
And asked for my dismissal
I said i was sorry, but i've been
Under so much pressure
Just lately, baby
I felt as popular as a russian guided missile
The last thing i remember, i left with a girl
On a motor bike
That weighed three hundred pounds and
What's wrong with that

Who's gonna take me home
I'm tired and i wanna go to bed
Who's gonna take me home
This party's gone right to my head
To my head

I woke up on the floor
Still in my suit and she told me i snored
I never felt so cheap
I had a good laugh at the size of her feet

Holy moses, i don't like this single living
I think i'll find me a nice local girl and
Settle on down, now
With a home and a garden
And a nature quite forgiving
Then again maybe i'll just hang around

Who's gonna take me home
I'm tired and i wanna go to bed, right now
Who's gonna take me home
This party's gone right to my head
To my head
Now who's gonna take me home
Hey brian could you give me a lift 'cos i don't live
Too far from you, boy
Mary c'mon i've known you so long please give
Me a lift home, oh c'mon
Jim oh c'mon boys would you just
Give me a lift home
I don't live too far from here and i'm so tired

(ronnie lane)

I wish i
I wish i was in richmond
I do, i would i
I wish i
I wish i was back home

I'm waitin' here in new york city
The rain is falling
There's no one who cares
There's no one loves me here

The women
They may look very pretty
And some they know it
But some look good
They show a leg and smile
But they all look like the flowers
In someone else's garden
I'll not act on love
For anyone but you

Hmm-mmm, hmm-mmm

(ron wood, ronnie lane)

Well i shake and i shudder and i shiver
In my bath while it's cold and my windows are broken,
As my poor dog lays a-chokin' on the floor.

Well i cried to my father and my mother,
There's no justice divine, i wonder when i get mine.
'cause i'm so sick and tired of waitin' for the lord.

I find just what it is i'm looking for

Ooh hoo hoo
Oh yeah

There's a man that wants to show me the river.
Hoofing at five i'll be more dead than alive.
I find a reason to survive when i'm too old.

Should i walk in the lightning and the thunder
On a hilltop so high and show my face to the sky ?
Will i find just what it is i'm looking for ?

I find just what it is i'm looking for
I find just what it is i'm looking for
I find just what it is

(leonard feather, 1946)

I've been downhearted baby
Ever since the first day that we met
I've been downhearted baby
Ever since the first day that we met
Your love ain't nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya' get ?

You're evil when i'm with ya'
And oh, you're jealous when we're apart
Good god, you're jealous when i'm with ya' honey
And you're evil when we're apart
Your love ain't nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya', can ya' get ?

Oh
You're evil when i'm with ya'

I bought you a brand new car
You said "i want a cadillac"
I bought you a ten-dollar dinner
You said "thank you for the snack"
I let you live in my penthouse
You said "that ain't nothing but a shack"
I gave you seven children
And now you wanna give 'em back !

Oh, i've been downhearted baby
Good god, i've been downhearted since we met
And listen, your love ain't nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya' get ?

Yeah, oh

Some fellows look at the eyes
Some fellows look at the nose
Some fellows look at the size
Some fellows look at the clothes
I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if shes underfeed
I don't care if her clothes are wrong
First i look at the purse.

Some fellows like the smiles they wear
Some fellows like the legs that talk
Some fellows like the style of their hair,
They want the waist line to be small.
I don't care if their legs all vein
I don't care if their teeth are big
I don't care if she wears a ring
Why waste time looking at the waist line
Cause first i look at the purse....yeah!

A woman can be as fine as can be
Kisses sweeter than honey
That don't mean a thing to me,
If you ain't got no money, baby.
Cause if the purse is fat, thats where it's at. yeahaa...

Some fellows like the way they walk,
The way they swing and sway.
Some fellows like the way they talk,
If they can talk talk all day.
I don't care if she waddles like a duck or talks with a lisp
I still think i'm in good luck if the dollar bills are crisp
Cause first i look at the purse....yeah yeah

Keep an eye on the money
Womans got to have some fine greenbacks hah
I ain't greedy guys,
Oh i don't wanna work no more

(ronnie wood, rod stewart)

Miss judy she was moody
Owned a sweaty farm in old alabam
I was just 18, crude and mean
All i needed was to get my own way
Get out of my way

Miss judy she could have me
Any hour of the working day
She'd send me in the corn field mid afternoon
Said son its all part of your job

Miss judy had a cross eyed poodle
That i would kick if i was given the chance
Never was amused by the kindness i used
I was whipped in the barn until dawn
It hurt me

Last summer we was restless
Were gonna make a stand and burn down your farm
But it was all in the head
Cause out in the yard
Miss judy had the national guard
We was beaten, before we started

Miss judy she was moody
And she always didn't get her own way
Just state the facts, get it right
Kick her when she's down

(porter)

Every time we say goodbye
I die a little
Every time we say goodbye
I wonder why a little
(why you guys above me
Who must be in the know)
Say so little to me
They allow you to go

When you're near
There's such an air
Of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
Theres no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time we say goodbye

When you're near
Theres such an air
Of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
Theres no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time you say

Theres no love song finer
But how strange
The change from major to minor
Every time we say goodbye

(rod stewart/andy taylor)

Well she came from the motor city
From a clean white neighbor hood
She had a degree in social science
She came out here to hollywood

She's a six foot sultry beauty
With an eye for polynisian art
In a short shirt and doctor martens
She could kick start a dead mans heart

It's not what she say
It's all in her sway
Shes a shock to the system

It's not how she talk
It's all in her walk
It's a shock to the system

Shes a rough cut sacred diamond
In a sea of mediocre style
She just wants the pro shot body
She may be crazy but shes no wild child

She have the old folks out on sundays
Plays piano in a rock and blues band
She don't drink, smoke, dope or do cocaine
But she parties hard all the same

It's not what she say
Its all in her sway
Shes a shock to the system

It's not how she talk
It's all in her walk
She's a shock to the system

Oh yea
Shock me baby
Shock me baby

As i was walking home one night
In the streets that never sleep
In that sub terrainian part of town
Where love is never found
On a billboard on the topless place
I noticed her pretty face
It said appearing here twice nightly
(...........)

Well she had a whole lot of money
And went back home to michigan
She had maximized her potential
But didn't scandilaze the family name

It's not what she say
It's all in her sway
It's a shock to the system

It's not how she talk
It's all in her walk
She's a shock to the system

It's not what she say
It's all in her sway
It's a shock to the system

It's not how she talk
It's all in her walk
It's a shock to the system

(ian mclagan, ronnie lane)

My mom she likes you
She thinks your swell
Got the makings of a dance hall girl
Your lowcut frock and your birds nest hair
Stepping up heels and the way that you smell
She says to take you back
To see my folks again
On sunday

Why it looks as though theres nobody in
They've all went out to see my auntie renny
Don't you worry you just come right in
I'm sure we'll pass the time til they come home
Well let me take your coat
Take off your shoes, warm your toes
Try the sofa

Its getting dark we'll miss the late night bus
It's only eight but i'm not taking any chances
Whats that noise why'd they come back so soon
Straighten your dress you're really looking a mess
I'll wet my sox pretend we just got caught in the rain
Oh your so rude

(ronnie lane)
[vocals by ronnie lane]

Thank you kindly for thinking of me
If i'm not smiling i'm just thinking

Glad and sorry, happy or sad.
When all is done and spoken
You're up or i'm down

Can you show me a dream,
Can you show me one that's better than mine
Can you stand it in the cold light of day
Neither can i

Can you show me a dream,
Can you show me one that's better than mine
Can you stand it in the cold light of day
Neither can i

I drifted into the notion
That you were looking for me
I told myself that devotion
Would flow from your heart to me

When i looked into your eyes
Still no reflection did i see
Of love light glowing within there
That i hoped there would be

And it's a hard lesson to learn my friend
A hard lesson to learn
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
'times you gonna get burned

I took a chance on emotion
Washing my heart out to see
A single wave on the ocean
You feel so distant from me
And there's a shadow dark upon your smile
A sadness living in your eyes
Storm clouds rolling in an outofdaught
Guess i been living alive

And it's a hard lesson to learn my friend
Hard lesson to learn
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned

And it's a hard lesson to learn my friends
Hard lesson to learn
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned

I drifted into the notion
That you were looking for me
I told myself that devotion
Would flow from your heart to me
But when i looked into your beautiful eyes
Still no reflection did i see
Of love light glowing within there
That i kind o' hoped there would be

And it's a hard lesson to learn my friends
Hard lesson to learn
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned
Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned

Yeah, yeah,yeah
Yeah, yeah oh

Sometimes you gonna get what you want
Sometimes you gonna get burned

(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger)

Look at all the problems
That we've been through
How can you tell me
That there's somebody new
I don't believe that i'm hearing this
I don't really think that you're serious

Well you picked a fine time to hesitate
See it my way i've nothing left
You can take my heart but don't steal my pride
Think it over before i'm pushed aside
And tell me

Say it ain't true
That's all you gotta do, baby
Say it ain't true

Well i thought this one was bound to last
Together forever oh what a laugh
It's going to hurt when i set you free
I've been loving you too long
You're a part of me

So tell me
Say it ain't true, tell me baby
Say it ain't true

Put yourself in my place for a little while
Going out of fashion growing out of style
No one to laugh with nobody to share
No one to lean on nobody to care
Nothing left but a memory
I gave you my heart so stay with me
And tell me

Say it ain't true
Say it ain't true
Tell me baby
Say it ain't true
I love you baby
I love you baby
I just want to do right by you honey
Wouldn't do you no wrong

(ron wood, ronnie lane)

I'm waiting here in patience and i'm waiting all in vain
Will i see you, will i touch you, will i hear you call my name ?
Comin' comin' comin' make
Ten steps to every one step that i take

Nobody comes and nobody goes, no one is happy, and no one has woes.
Everything lasting, ever the same,
Nothing is ending, nothing can change.

The good lord always has been, always will be ever the same.
And confusion mixed with illusion are years only turn again
With one and one hundred names,
Had all the rooms, our key is to change.

Nobody comes and nobody goes, no one is happy and no one has woes,
Everything lasting, nothing can change,
Nothing is ending, ever the same

And nothing the same, it's never the same
Ooh hoo

(stewart, stocker)

I gave trust like an innocent kid
I believed everything you said
A parasite that fed on doubt
Yeah it's you that i'm talking about
You rode heavy on my fame
Then you scandalized my name
You robbed me blind with a ( )
You lacerated your closest friend
I don't know how you sleep at
Night with your conscience
Do they still kiss your feet
And is life as sweet in my absence

I'm ready now, ready now for what i gotta give
I'm ready now, ready now for how i want to live

I don't want no sweet revenge
It'll come and get you in the end
Laugh now while the truth's unknown
Cause pretty soon it'll be my turn
One of these days and it won't be long
I will find you
Lock up your gates
You'll need all of your snakes
To defend you

I'm ready now, ready now for what i gotta give
I'm ready now, ready now for how i want to live

I'm bitter now, but wait and see
You ain't heard the last of me
I'll dance on your grave
When they finally put you away
What'd i do to deserve all this evil attention
A thousand years will never buy you redemption

Are you ready now, ready now for what you gotta give
Are you ready now, ready now for how you gotta give
Are you ready

darling part of my life it wasn't very pretty. see, i was born and raised
In the slums of the city.it was a 1 room shack and slept 10 other children
Beside me.we hardly had enough food or room to sleep. it was hard times. i
Needed some thing to ease my troubled mind.

Listen, my father didn't know the meaning of work. he disrespected mama and
Treated us like dirt.i left home seeking a job that i never did find.depressed
And down hearted i took to cloud nine.
I'm doin fine, up here, on cloud nine. listen 1 more time, i'm doin fine, up
Here, on cloud nine.

Folks down there tell me, they say give your self a chance son don't let life
Pass you by,but the world of reality is a rat race where only the strongly
Survive.it's a dog-eat-dog world and that ain't no lie. it ain't even safe no
More, to walk the streets at night.
I'm doin fine, on cloud nine.

Let me tell you about cloud nine. cloud nine, you can be what you want to
Be,(cloud nine)you ain't got no responsibilities,and every man,every man is
Free (cloud nine) your a million miles from reality, reality i wanna say upper,
Higher,upper, up, up and away.

I wanna say i love the life i live, and i'm gonna live the life i love, up here
On cloud nine.

I, i, i, i, i, i'm riding high on cloud nine.

Your as free as a bird in flight, (cloud nine)there's
No difference between day and night (cloud nine)it's a world of love and
Harmony, (cloud nine) your a million miles from reality,reality wonna say
Upper,higher,upper, up,up and away. cloud nine you can be what you wanna
Be,(cloud nine)you ain't got no responsibilities,(cloud nine)every man and his
Mind is free,your a million miles from reality, you can be what you wanna be.
I'm feelin fine on cloud nine.

(leiber, stoller)

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there, and they began to wail
The band began to-jumping, they began to swing
You should have heard the knock down jailbird sing
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock

Number forty-seven said to number three
You're the cutest jailbird i ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
So come and do the jailhouse rock with me
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Oh everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock, yeah!

Spider murphy played on the tenor saxophone
Little joe was blowin' on a slide trombone
Drummer boy from illinois was crash-a-bam boomin'
The whole rhythm section was the purple gang
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock

Listen
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse rock, yeah!

Everybody in the whole cell block
Dancing to the jailhouse rock

C'mon
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the jailhouse ...

(rod stewart, ron wood)

Wait a minute honey
I don't think the joke's so too funny, no
I stayed up all night
Checking out the doctor's guide
Wait a minute honey
Stop pretending you're a bunny
Well i might've guessed
You been to see a specialist.

I remember you said
That we gotta keep a breast of time
But obviously you don't know where to draw the line, well
Don't try to tell me it's a-what you been eating
Since when have you been forty-four around (get on with the song, yeah)

Dig this, at the moulin rouge tell you baby, we could knock'em dead
Just sign right here all i need is ten per cent.
Well, now you make me feel like a pimp in the white house
For a senator's daughter you're stealing all the headline news,
All the headline news.

Oh shake me, shake me, shake me up all night long
We all need a laugh and i guess you're just the one
Well you got more front than haig museum
Oh home grown silicone you really got the best of me
You got the best of me

(ronnie lane)

Well well hello
And how are you
Fancy seeing you here
Don't let it show

No look, no one must know
Why there playing tracks of my tears
Just pretend its all over
Like you have for so long
I thought time was a healer
But i guess i was wrong
I held you to blame
But we were so young

Oh how was i to know, hey
But you said you still want me
Oh you opened up an old wound
Then you left me here bleeding
And my minds black and blue
Now you got yours
And i got mine
And theres no debts owed you
Oh what can we do

(hopkins, beck, newman, stewart, wood)

Hangman, hangman, slack your noose
Slack it, oh slack it
Slack it for a while
There ain't no use in your hurrying me
Ain't nothing gonna change things now

Now i ain't trying to prove your judge is wrong
And your jury, oh your jury
I guess i'll know the way out
And if you kill me with my canvas shirt
Good god, you could put my lawyer in jail

Listen
It's just this twenty two minutes to prepare yourself
I haven't been in this position before
Wash your hands, get your .?.
Find the waistcoat, lock the door.
And oh!

Get your .?.
Oh yeah, get your .?. lock the door
Come on

Listen to this one
Oh hangman, hangman, slack your noose
Oh slack it, please slack it
Oh just slack it awhile, give me one more chance
There ain't no use in you hurryin' me
Good god, nothing's gonna stop me now

Oh
Don't you worry
Cause you never get your .?.
Well, might get your waistcoat on
Ha-ha
Heh-heh

(stewart, cregan, savigar)

This song ain't meant to be pretty
It ain't meant to make you dance
There's so many unsolved problems
Too many empty, angry hands
A little child in ethiopia
Will die before this song is through
Poor eyes have only seen sadness
Oh god show us what to do

I'm not preaching, i'm just singing
Trying to get a message through
I'm not crazy, i think maybe
The answers with me and you
Here they come
Take us to your leader
Take us to your leader
Think about it

A billion dollars on the arms race
Billions floating round in space
Opec's counting out it's money
Hunger stares us in the face
The battlefield is little children
Caught in a cross fire of hate
How can we call ourselves christians
How can we turn the other way

I'm not preaching, i'm just singing
Trying to get a message through
I'm not crazy, i think maybe
The answers with me and you
Here they come
Take us to your leader
Listen to what they're sayin'
Take us to your leader
Think about it

Nostradamus gave us warning
You will never walk away
One neutron bomb in the morning
May just ruin your whole day

I'm not preaching, i'm just singing
Trying to get a message through
I'm not crazy, i think maybe
The answers with me and you
Here they come
Take us to your leader
Listen to what they're sayin'
Take us to your leader
Take us to your leader

(ronnie lane)

I close my eyes and ignore all the signs
I'm walking 'round in circles
I've closed my ears and believed my own lies
And break the silence always
I make a lot of words, big storm in the air
All 'round your hair it's blowing
Just leave it be and it will all blow away
The weather's always changing

You can go if you want to
I don't own you, go be wild
Leave my hand, it's wide open, so's the door evermore

It hurts me more to think i'll keep you in chains
Than if you were to leave me.
I am what you are and i'm running too,
All for the open prairie.

So you can go if you want to
I don't own you, go be wild
Leave my hand it's wide open, so's the door forevermore.

(paul mccartney)

All right, here's one you may well know, you may not know it
And if you don't know it, i really don't know where you've been,
So you should know the tune. here we go!
Maybe i'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe i'm afraid of the way i'll leave you
Baby, i'm amazed at the way you fool me all the time
You hung me on a line
Oh baby, i'm amazed at the way i really need you

Baby, i'm a man, oh baby, i'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Baby, i'm a man, oh baby, you're the only woman that could ever help me
Baby, won't you try to understand

Baby, i'm a man, oh baby, i'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something
That he does not really understand - good god, hoo
Baby, i'm a man, oh baby, you're the only one that could ever help me
Baby, won't you try to understand

Baby, i'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Baby, i'm afraid of the way i'll leave ya'
Baby, i'm amazed at the way you help me sing the song
You right me when i'm wrong
Baby i'm amazed at the way i really need ya'

Baby, i'm a man, oh baby, i'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something
That he does not really understand
Baby, i'm a man, oh baby, you're the only woman that could ever help me
Baby, won't you try to understand

There you go, heh
Baby i'm amazed, the way i really need you
Alright. just about warming up and getting into it right about here.

(stewart, le mesurier)

You come to me with open arms
Trying to rectify my charms
You say tonight i'm to be your lover
And by the morning light i'm to discover
Everything that you've held inside of you
What's a man like me supposed to do
Sweet oh sweet surrender
Sweet, sweet surrender

You tell me that you're lonely and you're sad
And tonight i'm to be your only man
You wear those things that turn my head
You ruffle my ego but not my bed
Seems like summer when you're close at hand
If i seem eager then you'll understand
Sweet, sweet surrender
Sweet, sweet surrender

Heart is tired and full of doubt
Now you've sucked me in don't spit me out
Lay your head down next to mine
And in each others arms we'll entwine
Look me straight in the eyes and tell me
Between your heart and mind i see
Sweet oh sweet surrender
Sweet, sweet surrender
Surrender

(ron wood/rod stewart)

Sit right down if you can spare me a minute
I got a tale thats bound to break your heart
Concerns my brother who's thin and played violin
Got it in his head that an iq is all you need

He went his way i couldn't discover mine
I didn't worry if i ever saw him again
He's made a profit while i don't even own a pocket
And the last i heard he was sitting at the top of the tree
Wait a minute

Late last night reading my underground press
Came a knock on the door thought it was the third world war
Lord above i did not recognize him
I said have a cup of coke here maybe thats all you need
He said the smell of the city
Kid it's trying to kill me
My eyes are getting muddy
Christ i'm aging fast
My kind of music i knew it wasn't gonna to be simple
But have a quick listen kid maybe thats all you need

Don't stop you make me feel much better
Tell me my brother do you think that's all i need
Yea yea

Don't it make you happy
Well, well, well, well, well

That's all you need
That's all you need
That's all you need
That's all you need
(repeat and fade)

(stewart, taupin, cregan, savigar)

It's a common misconception
About a man's role in this world
A provider and survivor and
A winner who must never fail
But oh how he needs a woman
To reassure and give him strength
Through the darkest nights
And the hardest fights
When there's no other corner left
When the world outside is threatening
And all his dreams have been destroyed
Take him in your arms watch all his guards
Melt like a little boy

Tell him you really need him
Tell him you really care
Tell him you'll never leave him
He'll be satisfied

And he may not find it easy
To say what's on his mind
When he's full of doubt
Say "we'll work it out"
God knows how hard he's trying
And he may never buy you roses
And forget to notice your hair
But as long as he says "i love you my dear"
That's all you need to hear

Tell him you really need him
Tell him you'll aways care
Tell him you'll never leave him
He'll be satisfied

And they say the heart's a hunter
But it's truth you can't deny
He may never be everything you want
But for you he'd lay down and die
So friday night when the phone rings
And he's stuck in a downtown bar
Roll away the stone
Cause the last mile home
Is the longest mile of them all

Tell him you really need him
Tell him you'll always care
Tell him you'll never leave him
He'll be satisfied
Tell him you really want him
Tell him you understand
And tell him that you love him
He'll be satisfied

(j. rod)

I don't know much about love people,
But i sure think i've got it bad.
I don't know too much about love people,
But i sure think i've got it bad.
Some people say love is just a gamble,
But whatever it is, it's about to drive poor me mad.
Yes it is.

I'm sittin' here in my lonely room,
Tears flowin' all down my eyes.
Come on baby.
As i'm sittin' here, sittin' here, sittin' here in my lonely room,
You know the tears flowin' all down my god-darn eyes.
I wonder how you could treat me so low down and dirty, ha-ha,
You know what? your heart must be made out of iron.
And it ain't no lie. come on baby.

Don't you worry!
Oww! oh yeah!

Over here!
Sometime, i get so worried,
You know i could sit down and cry, ha-ha-ha, yea!
Dig this!
You know sometime i get so worried people,
You know, and only you know, i could sit down and cry.
And it ain't no lie.
Because, i don't know too much about love people,
But i,
But i,
Oww sure think i've got it bad.

Love wars, love wars
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
But its taking me under
Since you're not here, oh baby
Its better when its harder to get
But this hide and go seek
Well it's making me weep, yeah
(oh we call over now baby)
I promise you to stop boxing you round
So don't scratch my face now
At the end of the eight
We need to get our act together
Take it off the street
Bring it on home and drop them guns on the floor
Stop them
Love wars (no, we don't need no)
Love wars, ha

Talks we had just don't change a thing
They only bring rain
On top of pain, it's hurts me
Flashbacks and uncover tracks
From when you left me
With my best friend,
Oh you left me all alone baby
(so sorry babe) hurts so bad
We need to get our act together
Take it off the street
Bring it on home and drop them guns on the floor
Make love in peace
And baby never cheat
Vow to be strong and let the band roll on
No more love wars (we don't need no)
Love wars
Love wars we don't want no
Love wars (i don't want no)
Love wars
We don't need no love wars
Get it off the street (love wars)
We don't need no (no more, no more)
Love wars

Absence makes the heart grow fonder
But its taking me under
Since you're not here, oh baby (oh baby)
I remember losing my head
And calling you things
Like dirty names oh i had ( ) enough (yes you did, boy)
We need to get our act together
And get if off the street
Bring it on home and drop them guns on the floor, yeah
Make love in peace
And baby ever cheat
Vow to be strong and let the band roll on
Stop them
Love wars (we don't need no)
Love wars
Love wars, we don't need no
Love wars (i don't want no love wars)
I don't need no, need no (love wars, i don't want no)

Take me like you find me
Don't try to change me
You know better than that
Take me as you see me
Don't try to hide me
I ain't used to that
Shout it out loud
Put a bomb in a crowd
If i got something to say
There's nothing that can stop me
I can't let it lay

If i have to fall on my head
Every night of the week
It's gonna be my fault,
No one else
If everything goes wrong
When i'm singing my song
It's gonna be my fault
And no one else
There ain't nothing you can do about it
I've sat and thought it over,
Don't try to help me
I was just born this way,
Yes i was born this way
I ain't gonna change for nobody,
Never, never gonna change

So if everything goes wrong
And i drink all night
It's gonna be my fault
And no one else
People don't change just over night
It ain't natural, so don't
Break it kindly,
Don't hypnotize me
I just won't understand
Take me like you find me
Don't try to change me
You know better than that
Oh don't you know better than that
Oh don't you know better than that
Say i'm just a fool, that's alright
Never try to change me
Or rearrange me, oh yeah
