1. _ City Home
I'm thinkin' 'bout a place
I'm waitin' for the day
When i will make my get away
Because as any fool can see
There's nothin' here for me but
Hurry up boy bring that water
Don't do things you shouldn't oughta
But when i go away and find my easy street
I'll have a smile for all i meet
And they will welcome me i know
Everywhere i go
No more thinkin' that i've missed it how can anyone resist it
And there's a chance
That i will find my big romance
When i get to my city home
But when i go away
And find my easy street
I'll have a smile for all i meet
And they will welcome me i know
Everywhere i go
I'll see the town in all its glitter
How could anyone be bitter
And there's a chance
That i will find my big romance
When i get to my city home

2. _ If You Live
If you live your time will come
I say if you live your time will come
So child don't mess with that cotton sack
It will scratch your knees and bend your back
And if you live your time will come
If you live your day will come
If you live your day will come
So child don't play with those pots and pans
They will soon enough ruin your pretty hands
And if you live your time will come
If you live a day will come
If you live a day will come
When the sun will shine
And the crops will grow
And you think you're not gonna worry no more
But if you live, your time will come

3. _ News Nightclub
Been workin' in nightclubs so long, can hardly stand the break of day
Been workin' in nightclubs so long, can hardly stand the break of day
Run down rooms and bad places
But it's still the only way
Gonna be here through sunday evening, be someplace else on tuesday night
Gonna be here through sunday evening, be someplace else on tuesday night
If i get home with all my money
Everything will be alright
If i had a million dollars, i'd sit right down and relax
If i had a million dollars, i'd sit right down and relax
I'd go off and buy myself a nightclub
And write it off my income tax

4. _ Was
When i become was and we become were
Will there be any sign or a trace of th' lovely contour of your face
And will there be someone around
With essentially my kinda sound
When am turns to was and now is back when
Will someone have moments like this
Moments of unspoken bliss
And will there be heroes and saints
Or just a dark new age of complaints
When i become was and we become were
Will there be any susans and ralphs
Lookin' at old photographs
And wondering aloud to a friend

5. _ Perfect Moment
Sunset glow from a hill
Let it flow take your fill
Such a perfect moment
Mona lisa smile
One such perfect moment
Makes it all worthwhile
Autumn night crystal clear
Mystic night seems so near
Such a perfect moment
Nothin' you can say
One such perfect moment
Gets you through the day
Mountain sheen, ocean shine
Miocene valentine
One such perfect moment
Never twice th' same
Such a perfect moment
Will keep you in th' game

6. _ Benediction
My message this evenin'
Is simple indeed
Wherever you wander
Whatever your breed
There's just one thing baby
That comes from above
When push comes to shove
Thank god for self love
Thank him, thank him
God for self love
Thank him, thank him
God for self love
When push comes to shove
Thank god for self love
When livin' gets heavy
And hope starts to fade
You just can't continue
That old masquerade
Remember the power that comes from above
When push comes to shove
Thank god for self love
Thank him, thank him
God for self love
Thank him, thank him
God for self love
When push comes to shove
Thank god for self love

Look here, what you think you gon' be doin' next year
No lie, how you know you no gon' up and die
No doubt, soon enough your friends will find you out
Take care you know you might not have much time to spare

Look here, what you think you gon' be doin' next year

Let's talk it over, let's get get it straight
Don't let th' situation escalate
You know there's always problems when a man is wrapped up in his art
But don't you worry baby you can count on me to do my part

10. _ Back On The Corner
I'm back on th' corner
I'm right back on th' corner
I've been in this condition so many times before
Back by my lonesome
I'm right back by my lonesome
Just watching th' people going from door to door
I've got to change my ways
And try to quit this place
'cause one of these rainy days
I'm gonna need a friendly face
I'm back on th' corner
I'm right back on th' corner
I've been in this condition so many times before
I've got to change my ways
And try to quit this place
'cause one of these rainy days
I'm gonna be a mental case

11. _ I Don't Want Much
I don't want much in this world
It's th' simple things i treasure
'till i die i would get by on fame, riches and sensual pleasure
I don't ask much in this life
No special consideration
Just treat me like his majesty
Of a friendly opec nation
Some people
Just don't know when to stop
Some people
Just won't quit until they reach the top
But i'm so easy going
I'd make my way through life
On love and understanding
From a rich and beautiful life
Some people
Just never seem to get enough
Some people
Want salvation, paradise and all that stuff
But i'm so easy going
Don't even keep the score
All i want is plenty, but i will take more
If you ask me
I will take more
Say please
I will
Take more

12. _ One Of These Days
One of these days i've got to get things right
I'm gonna do my business in th' daylight
One of these days you know i've got to get things right
I'm gonna do my business out in the broad daylight
One of these days i've got to get things straight
I'm gonna stop acting like a reprobate
One of these days you know i've got to get things straight
I'm gonna stop staying out late
And acting like a reprobate
One of these days i've got to get in step
It won't be long 'fore i'll be needin' help
One of these days you know i've got to get in step
The way i'm going baby i'll be needin' help
One of these days i've got to go back home
Sit out on my front porch and compose a poem
One of these days you know i've got to go back home
I'm gonna sit out on my front porch, rock away compose a poem

13. _ Tell Me Something
You say the world is mad
You say that you've been had
You don't like your part in the floor show
You say it's all a bust
There's no one you can trust
Well, tell me something that i don't know
You say the world's a mess
It's anybody's guess
As to who will deliver that low blow
You suffer from the strain
You don't dig pain
Well, tell me something that i don't know
You say there's some mistake
You didn't get your break
You don't see the magic in the moonglow
You're on a one way street
Your life is incomplete
Well, tell me something that i don't know
You're uptight
It ain't right
Well, tell me something that i don't know
