1. _ Aimless Lady
Aimless lady, is this your home town?
Tell me baby, tell me where you're bound.
When our eyes met, you were in the very first row.
I couldn't even guess your name, but i just had to know.
You were meant for me, would you grab your coat and flee?
You were a mystery, but you just had to be ...
An aimless lady.
Aimless lady.
Aimless lady.
Should i try, and satisfy, you lady?
Ain't no lie, now we'll get by, my baby.
If you can stand, a real good man, now lady,
Take my hand, and understand, me baby.
Take your time, you're doing fine, now lady.
You got yours, and i got mine, now baby.
Can you see, the way to be, now lady.
Stay with me, and set me free, now baby.
Aimless lady.
Aimless lady.
Aimless lady.
You're mine aimless lady.
Yeah, aimless lady.
You're mine aimless lady.
Mine, aimless lady.
Oooo ...

2. _ Mean Mistreater
Mean mistreater, you make me cry,
You lay around, and watch me die.
Mean mistreater, can't you see i'm real?
Are you satisfied, with the way you feel?
I've tried hard to live without you, in so many ways.
I just can't help myself from thinking of you, for the rest of my days.
Heartache is at my door step, won't leave me alone.
I just can't get used to it, now that i'm on my own.
I know all about you, your childhood days,
Your mom and dad, your pretty face.
Mean mistreater, if you need me,
I'm needin' you to set me free.
Mmmm ...

3. _ Sin's A Good Man's Brother
Ain't seen a night, things work out right, go by.
Things on my mind, and i just don't have the time, and it don't seem right.
Ain't seen a day, that i don't hear people say, they know they're gonna' die.
This may seem a little bit crazy, but i don't think you should be so lazy.
If you think you've heard this before, well, stick around i'm gonna' tell you more.
One just like the other, sin's a good man's brother, but is that right?
You tell me that i don't, then i say i won't, but then i might.
You said this is the way it's supposed to be, but it just don't seem right to me, and that's outta' sight.
Some folks need an education, don't give up, or we'll loose the nation.
You say we need a revolution? it seems to be the only solution.

4. _ I Don't Have To Sing The Blues
I've got this good lookin' woman back home, let me tell ya'
She cooks good and she looks good, and she just can't do no wrong.
She cooks me cornbread in the morning, she's my dinner and my midnight snack.
She sits up and she begs, and she even rolls over on her back.
Chorus
Please don't tell me that's the way that it goes, 'cause i've tried hard and i know.
I ain't been playin' in your back yard, 'cause i got my baby and she loves me so.
She don't treat me mean, and she loves my machine, yeah.
I digs her 'cause she's funky, and she sure keeps it clean, now.
I'm a loafer, she's my chauffeur, and she sure likes to drive me, uh-huh.
I lay my life on the line, and she steps right up besides me, yeah.
Chorus
I don't have to sing the blues no more.
A girl like mine is hard to find for sure.
She lays it on me each and every night.
She's my pleasure and my world's delight.
I don't have to sing the blues no more.
A girl like mine is hard to find for sure.
She lays it on me each and every night.
She's my pleasure and my world's delight.

Got to get it together.

Got to get it together.
Everybody has to get it.
Got to get it together.
And so on ...

6. _ I'm Your Captain
Everybody, listen to me,
And return me, my ship.
I'm your captain, i'm your captain,
Although i'm feeling mighty sick.
I've been lost now, days uncounted,
And it's months since i've seen home.
Can you hear me, can you hear me,
Or am i all alone.
If you return me, to my home port,
I will kiss you mother earth.
Take me back now, take me back now,
To the port of my birth.
Am i in my cabin dreaming, or are you really scheming,
To take my ship away from me?
You'd better think about it, i just can't live without it.
So, please don't take my ship from me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah ...
I can feel the hand, of a stranger,
And it's tightening, around my throat.
Heaven help me, heaven help me,
Take this stranger from my boat.
I'm your captain, i'm your captain,
Although i'm feeling mighty sick.
Everybody, listen to me,
And return me, my ship.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
Ohhhh ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
Repeated to fade

7. _ Hooked On Love
Well, did you ever have something, you want the whole wide world to know about?
It's that something i must tell you, that you just can't live without.
Ten times your fingers, and double your toes,
That's how much i love you and how much it shows.
Chorus
You know that i am ... hooked on love.
I'll tell you what i am ... hooked on love.
Believe me when i say it ... hooked on love.
Hooked on love, ohhhh ...
My brothers and sisters, hear what i say.
I'm gonna' love you, to my dying day.
When i tell you that i love you, well, at least i tried.
I want you to believe me, this ain't no lie.
Chorus
Satisfy my need in life, now, let me hear you say.
You'll be lovin' me alright, until your dyin' day.
Just say it a little bit louder now, i'm startin' to get in your groove, yeah.
You've got nothing to worry about, your love is on the move.
I hope some day the light of love shines bright upon your face.
I don't care who you are, i love the human race.
Satisfy my need in life, now, let me hear you say.
You'll be lovin' me alright, until your dyin' day.
Just say it a little bit louder now, i'm startin' to get in your groove, yeah
You've got nothing to worry about, your love is on the move.
I hope some day the light of love shines bright upon your face.
I don't care who you are, i love the human race.

8. _ Nothing Is The Same
When i was feeling 'bout sixteen, i never had no idea.
Listen to me if you want to know what i mean, your expression will let me see.
I never knew what i was looking for, i never had the time.
And now that time has opened up my door, now i'm looking forward just to see what, just what's mine.
When i was feeling 'bout eighteen, it's then when i began to see.
No matter how hard you push on the door, it won't open without the key.
Opportunity only knocks once, if you shut it out it's a sin.
And when something keeps right on poundin', then, my friend, you'd better let it in.
Now i feel just a little bit old and, sadness fills my brain.
I can flash to future years and nothing is the same.
Nothing is the same.
Nothing is the same.
Nothing is the same.
