1. _ Russian Roulette
Take it or leave it i've heard it been said
All this spring fever's just way over my head
Stealing my moments, taking up all my time
It's playing russian roulette with my mind
It's none of my business baby just what's going on
I'm not going to wait till somebody throw me a bone
I'm way out on a limb now, and nothing seems to rhyme
It's playing russian roulette with my mind
I think that you've caught on, that you've been used and all
I'm going down new orleans, i've got to see dr. john
Got my mojo working everything will be fine
Stop playing russian roulette with my mind
It's not easy baby when everything starts getting out of control
Hang on your hat now, hang on to your soul
Don't worry baby, i wanna throw you the line
They're playing russian roulette with your mind
Too many hustlers, i've been here before
None of them really know just who that you are
Everything gets contracted and space gets confined
They're playing russian roulette with your mind
They're playing russian roulette
They're playing russian roulette
They're playing russian roulette with your mind
They're playing russian roulette
They're playing russian roulette
They're playing russian roulette with your mind

2. _ No Religion
We didn't know no better, and they said it could be worse
Some people thought it was blessing
Other people think that it's a curse
It's a choice between fact and fiction
And the whole world has gone astray
That's why there's no religion, no religion, no religion here today
And there's no straight answers
Of what this thing called love is all about
Some say it's unconditional
Other people just remain in doubt
Well i cleaned up my diction, i had nothing left to say
Except there's no religion, no religion, no religion here today
And they ask what hate is
It's just the other side of love
Some people want to give their enemies
Everything they think that they deserve
Some say why don't you love your neighbours
Go ahead, turn the other cheek
But there's nobody on this planet that can ever be so meek
And i can't bleed for you
You have to do it your own way
And there's no religion, no religion, no religion here today
And they ask what hate is
It's just the other side of love
Some people want to give their enemies
Everything they think that they deserve
Some say why don't you love your neighbours
Go ahead, turn the other cheek
But have you ever met anybody who's ever been the meek
And it's so cruel to expect the saviour to save the day
And there's no religion, no religion, no religion here today
And there's no mystery, and there's nothing hidden
And there's no religion here today
And there's no religion, no religion, no religion here today

3. _ Days Like This
When it's not always raining there'll be days like this
When there's no one complaining there'll be days like this
When everything falls into place like the flick of a switch
Well my mama told me there'll be days like this
When you don't need to worry there'll be days like this
When no one's in a hurry there'll be days like this
When you don't get betrayed by that old judas kiss
Oh my mama told me there'll be days like this
When you don't need an answer there'll be days like this
When you don't meet a chancer there'll be days like this
When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they f it
Then i must remember there'll be days like this
When everyone is up front and they're not playing tricks
When you don't have no freeloaders out to get their kicks
When it's nobody's business the way that you wanna live
I just have to remember there'll be days like this
When no one steps on my dreams there'll be days like this
When people understand what i mean there'll be days like this
When you ring out the changes of how everything is
Well my mama told me there'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this

4. _ Songwriter
I'm a songwriter and i know just where i stand
I'm a songwriter, pen and paper in my hand
Get the words on the page
Please don't call me a sage,
I'm a songwriter
I'm a songwriter and i do it for a living
I'm a songwriter and i write about men and women
I can write about love and the stars up above
I'm a songwriter
I'm a songwriter and i'm hot on your trail
I'm a songwriter and my cheque's in the mail
I can move with the scene, i can make up a dream
I'm a songwriter
Na na na nana, na na na nana
I'm a songwriter i can do it for certain
I'm a songwriter even do it when i'm hurtin'
And if it comes to the bit, have to write another hit
I'm a songwriter
I'm a songwriter i can put it in words
I'm a songwriter and it's not for the birds
I can spin you a yarn, it's as long as my arm
I'm a songwriter
Na na na nana, na na na nana
I'm a songwriter
Na na na nana, na na na nana
I'm a songwriter

5. _ Underlying Depression
Underlying depression, have to crawl into my room
Underlying depression don't want to know about the moon in june
Outside there's a cavalcade of clowns but they`re bringing me down
With underlying depression
Underlying depression and it's starting in my backyard
Underlying depression, and these times ain't even so hard
Lord i was born with the blues and my blue suede shoes
And underlying depression
Underlying depresslon and there's ust nowhere to turn
Underlying depression and things just seem to turn in on one
Sometimes i'm stuck in the corner just like little jack horner
With underlying depression
Underlying depression and i just can't get it right
Underlying depression i've got to fight it with all of my might
Right now i don't want to be alone
Get my baby on the telephone
Underlying depression
Have to make some concessions when everything is working right
Have to count my blessings, helps me make it through the night
I've got love in my life as well as trouble and strife
And underlying depression
Underlying depression, underlying depression, underlying depression
Ain't nothing but the blues
Underlying depression ain't nothing but the blues
Underlying depression, ain't nothing but the blues
Underlying depression

6. _ Melancholia
In the afternoon, baby in my room
When the lights are dim way beyond the hill
In the afternoon, baby in my room
When i'm really down get me off the ground
Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia
In the morning time when i go outside
In the morning time it's like that all the while
In the afternoon when i'm in my room
Every single day, it won't go away
Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia
And it's in my heart, when we're apart
And it stops and starts, and it's in my heart
Every single day it's always in my way
When i'm making hay, all i've got to say
Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia
Well it's in my blood and it's in my veins
Here it comes again, when i'm in the rain
In the wind and rain, well the sun don't shine
Well it's always mine, all of the time
Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia
And it's in my life and it's all the time
It doesn't go away when the church bells chime
In the evening time when i drink my wine
In the evening time when it's on my mind
Melancholia, melancholia, melancholia
It's only melancholia
Oh melancholia, oh melancholia, oh melancholia, oh melancholia
Melancholia, melancholia
They call it, call it melancholia, call it melancholia, call it melancholia, call it melancholia
Call it melancholia, melancholia, melancholia, melancholia

7. _ Raincheck
It's not high finance, it's called heart and soul
If it's rock and roll, got to go, go, go, go, go
Gonna keep moving on up to the higher ground
Gonna keep on moving on up, i got to stand my ground
Gonna keep on moving on up, i wanna stick around
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Call me raincheck in the afternoon
Call me raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
Call me raincheck, on a golden autumn day
Call me raincheck, i won't fade away, i won't fade away
I don't fade away, i don't fade away, unless i want to
Can't take my love away, ah 'cause it's here to stay
If it fades away, come back another day
Gonna keep on moving on up to the higher ground
Gonna keep on moving on up, i wanna stick around
Gonna keep on moving on up, oh gonna stand my ground
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down
My name is raincheck in the afternoon
My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day
My name is raincheck, and i don't fade away, i don't fade away
I don't fade away, i don't fade away, unless i want to
Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up
Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up
Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up
Grind me down, grind me down, grind me down
My name is raincheck in the afternoon
My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day
My name is raincheck, and i don't fade away, i don't fade away
I don't fade away, i don't fade away, unless i want to
Put on your dancing shoes, dance away your blues
When i'm feeling like this, i got nothing to lose
Wanna keep on moving on up to the higher ground
Wanna keep on moving on up and i'll stick around
Wanna keep on moving on up, got to stand my ground
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Won't let the bastards grind me down
Oh, won't let the bastards grind me down
My name is raincheck in the afternoon
My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day
My name is raincheck, and i don't fade away, i don't fade away
I don't fade away, i don't fade away, unless i choose
I choose, i choose, i choose
No, i don't fade away, i don't fade away, i don't fade away
Unless i choose, i choose, i choose

I choose, i choose, i choose
I choose, i choose, i choose
No, i won't fade away, i won't fade away, i don't fade away

8. _ Perfect Fit
Now baby just lately you've been holding back too much
Your looks and my language, this could be the perfect touch
What you are asking fits with everything on my list
This could be the perfect fit
Tell me that it's madness to want something quite like this
But they don't understand the magic that i can't resist
Oh and wouldn't it be so tragic if everything just went amiss
And this could be the perfect fit
They say no-one is perfect some people might take the piss
And we say we're just friends come on, tell me what's wrong with this
But i say keep it simple, well we haven't even started yet
And this could be the perfect fit
See that dress you're wearing baby suits you right down to the ground
Tell me where in my world a better loving woman can be found
Well i've searched high and low now and from where you and i sit
Baby, this could be the perfect fit
Baby, this could be the perfect fit
Come on baby, this could be the perfect fit
Fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, say again
This could be the perfect fit
Fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit, fit
This could be the perfect fit

9. _ I'll Never Be Free
Each time i hold somebody new
My arms go cold thinking of you
No one can take your place, darling, in my embrace
I'll never be free.
And when my lips burn with desire
No other kiss can put out the fire
Though i may try and try, no one can satisfy
This longing in me.
(chorus)
I'll never be free from your smile so tender
The sweet surrender in your eyes
I cannot be free when i remember
How you fill me with desire.
Just like a train tracks through my heart
Your love remains while we're apart
That kiss i gave to you
Made me a slave to you
I'll never be free.
Chorus
That kiss i gave to you
Made me a slave to you
I'll never be free.

10. _ You Don't Know Me
You give your hand to me and then you say hello
And i can hardly speak - my heart is beating so
And anyone can tell you think you know me well
You don't know me.
Now if you don't know the one who longs at you each night
And longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight
You know i am just a friend
That's all i've ever been.
You don't know me.
(refrain)
I never knew the art of making love
'til my heart yearned with love you
If rain and shine let my chance go by
The chance you might have loved me too
You give your hand to me and then you say good-bye.
I watched you walk away beside some lucky guy.
To never, never know the one who loves you so.
'cause you don't know me.
Refrain

11. _ In The Afternoon
The light is fading in the afternoon
Won't you see me baby in my room
There's something that i wanna say to you
Tell me baby am i getting through
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
In the afternoon, in the afternoon
The light is fading from across the way
I see you coming baby every day
I see you running, running from across the field
And i wanna know if you can feel the same as me
Cause i wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
In the afternoon, in the afternoon
The wind is howling baby outside the shack
Train whistle blowin' from across the track
Get on my wavelength, and you set me free
I just wanna be everything you want me to be
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
In the afternoon, in the afternoon
The moon is sinking way across the trees
I can see my baby but she can't see me
I've got a longing deep within my soul
I have to take it there and let it roll
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
Wanna make, wanna make, wanna make, wanna make
Love to you
In the afternoon, make love in the afternoon
Make love in the afternoon
Let it roll
You got me reelin' and a-rockin'and rollin' again
Let it roll
You got me reelin' and a-rockin'and rollin' and rollin' again
Oh, i'm rollin' and tumblin', and i'm rollin' and tumblin'
And i'm talkin' all outta my mind baby
Let it roll
You got me reelin' and a-rockin'
And i'm talkin' all outta my mind
I'm talkin' all outta my mind
Make love in the afternoon
Make love in the afternoon
Make love in the afternoon

12. _ Ancient Highway
There's a small cafe on the outskirts of town
I'll be there when the sun goes down
Where the roadside bends
And it twists and turns
Every new generation
And i'll be praying to my higher self
Don't let me down, keep my feet on the ground
There's a roadside jam playin' on the edge of town
In a town called paradise near the ancient highway
When the train whistle blows
All the sadness that hank williams knows
And the river flows
Call them pagan streams and it spins and turns
In a factory in a street called bread in east belfast
Where georgie knows best
What it's like to be daniel in the lion's den
Got so many friends only most of the time
When the grass is high and the rabbit runs
Though it's talkin' to you and i
And every new generation comes to pay
The dues of the organ grinder jam
And the grinder's switch of the sacrifice
Everybody made to be rational with understanding
And i'll be praying to my higher self
Oh, don't let me down, keep my feet on the ground
What about all the people living in the nightmare hurt
That won't go away no matter how hard they try
They've got to pay time and time again, time and time again
I'll be praying to my higher self
And i'll be standin' there, where the boats go by
When the sun is sinking way over the hill
On a friday evening when the sun goes down
On the outskirts of town, i wanna slip away
I wanna slip away, got to get away
And i'll be praying to my higher self
Don't let me down, keep my feet on the ground, don't let me down
You'll be cryin' again, you'll be cryin' again, you'll be cryin' again
By the same wipe the teardrops from your eyes
Have to slip away in the evening when the sun goes down
Over the hill, with a sense of wonder
Everything gonna be right on a friday evening
All the cars go by all along down
The ancient highway
And i'll be praying, i'll be praying to my higher self
Don't let me down, keep my feet, keep my feet on the ground
Keep my feet on the ground
Travelling like a stranger in the night, all along the ancient highway
Got you in my sights, got you on my mind
I'll be praying in the evening when the sun goes down
Over the mountain, got to get you right in my sight
As the beams on the cars from the overpass
On the ancient highway shine like diamonds in the night
Like diamonds in the night
I'll be praying to my higher self, to my higher self
Don't let me down, don't let me down
And you'll be standing there, while the boats go by
While the boats go by on a friday evening
Shining your light, shining your light on a friday evening
Got to slip away, got to slip away down that ancient highway
In a town called paradise, in a town, in a town
All along, all along that road, all along that road,
All along that road with the trancelike vision
I'll be praying to my higher self, don't let me down, don't let me down
Keep my feet on the ground, keep my feet on the ground,
Keep my feet on the ground
Friday evening got to slip away
Watching the view from a car from the overpass
And we're driving down that ancient road
Shining like diamonds in the night, oh diamonds in the night
All along the ancient highway
Got you in my sight, got you in my mind
Got you in my arms and i'm praying, and i'm gonna pray
I'm gonna pray, to my higher self, ah don't let me down
Don't let me down, give me the fire, ah give me the fire
