1. _ Telephone
My telephone's ringin', early in the mornin'.
Somebody, guessa who? sweet baby, it's you!
Say you're callin' from the station, oh i told you "hold on,
I'm on my way!" and all you got to say,
Chorus:
"i wonder why you had to go, been so long and now i know,"
Sweet baby dear, everything will be allright,
'cause i've been ringin', early in the mornin',
Somebody, guessa who? sweet baby, it's you!
Chorus
Somebody, guess who? sweet baby, it was you.
Somebody, guessa guessa guessa who?
Sweet baby, it's all right. (x 5)

3. _ Between The Lines
Between the lines, that's wond'rin' what to say, when you ain't sayin' nothin',
Between the lines, that's thinkin' about the silence that hides behind your smile,
Between the lines, that's walkin' on eggshells that whisper keep your footing,
Between the lines, that's watchin' what you're doin', pretendin' to be blind.
The truth is just a shadow, you can never pin it down,
And the words are always hollow, never yes or no, they're in the middle ground.
Chorus:
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines. between the lines.
Between the lines, that's tryin' to guess the meanin', when there ain't none to begin with,
Between the lines, that's waitin' for the warlord to drop the other shoe,
Between the lines, that's wond'rin' why the answer is just another question,
Between the lines, that's thinkin' about the shotgun that's lookin' straight at you.
I was just a shadow, and i never made a sound.
But how can you be livin', when you're just standin' there on the middle ground.
Chorus
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines! between the lines!
Between the lines.

4. _ My Toot Toot
Chorus:
Don't mess with my toot toot, don't mess with my toot toot,
Well you can have the other woman, but don't mess with my toot toot.
She was born in her birth suit, the doctor slap her behind, (slap!)
Say you're gonna to be special, you sweet little toot toot.
Well you can look as much, but if you much as touch,
You're gonna have yourself a case - i'm gonna break your face!
Chorus
Oh toot, hey!
Whoa, mama was the same way too, all the fellas didn't know what to do,
And papa never had a chance, with a sweet little toot toot.
She was born in her birth suit, the doctor slap her behind, (slap!)
Said you're gonna to be special, you sweet little toot toot.

5. _ I Confess
I want the world to know (i want the world to know)
I want the world to know (i want the world to know)
Yeah! (yeah!) yeah! (yeah!) yeah! (yeah!)
That i (you!), that i (you!), that iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! (aaaaaaaaaaah, you!)
I confeh-heh-hess.
Mercy, mercy baby! i done you wrong.
Had my share of wine, women and song, want you back here in my arms,
My days are empty without you baby, wasted time turns into years,
My pillow is soakin' wet baby, with all my cryin' tears.
Built a home in detroit, cattle in texas,
Way up in the san francisco bay,
I got apartments in new orleans, skyscrapers in new york,
But if you're honest baby, you sound lonely, and i'm alone.
Matilda! (i don't believe she hears ya)
Matilda! (ya gotta call a little bit louder)
Matilda! (a just a little bit louder)
Matilda! (lord, a little bit louder)
Matilda! (i believe, she might hear ya now)
Matilda! (just say it again, now)
Matilda! (do it one more time!)
Matilda! (i believe she hears you)
Hey, hey, matilda! (whoa, a little bit louder!)
Matilda! (just a little bit louder now)
Matilda! (i believe she hears you now)
Matilda! (i believe she hears you now)
Matilda! (here she comes! here she comes!)
Matilda! (i believe she heard you now)

6. _ On The Run
Close your eyes tonight, make believe the train will come along,
And carry me back where i should be.
Reach out through the night, and wash away the pain that wasted so much time,
And break my heart, break my mind.
Chorus:
On the run, on the run, the sheriff come get me, say i'm on the run.
On the run, on the run, the sheriff come get me, and i'm on the run.
Standin' out in the rain, can't remember when i felt so all alone,
Tired to the bone.
But if i have to run, you know i'll keep the thing i've done inside of me,
Until the hangman sets me free.
Chorus
Lookin' back on some imaginary time,
Thinkin' back when i was raised,
Lookin' at the blackbirds singin' on the line,
But they can't sing you back to me.
Chorus
Do-do-do. do-do-doo, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-doooo.
Do-do-do. do-do-doo, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-dooooooooooooooo.

7. _ You Got The Magic
Mmmm, when the midnight ravens appear in your eyes,
Oh! and the mystery holdin' your soul is realized,
Shadows of night, faces in the fire, like visions in a dream, takin' me higher.
Chorus:
You got the magic thrillin' me, you got the magic chillin' me,
You got the magic, shine your spell on me.
Whoa, when the hoodoo children of night gather near,
Ah! when the whirlwind whispers your name, i can hear,
Wind in the willows, scratchin' in the sand,
And the whole universe is at your command there.
Chorus
Yeah.
You got the magic thrillin' me, you got the magic chillin' me, oooh!
You got the magic thrillin' me, you got the magic chillin' me, oooh!
You got the magic, shine your spell on me.

8. _ Evil Thing
You know i feel just like a prisoner, the way your love has chained me down, so i gave your letter to the mailman, i turned your picture to the wall,
But still you have claimed me forever, and that's what scares me most of all!
Chorus:
Ooh! you evil thing, why do you haunt me?
You evil thing, what good is love?
The other night, i had a feeling there was somebody else in my room,
Now i don't know if i was dreamin', but i still get a chill from your perfume.
When my telephone rings, and there's no answer, and the wind comes knockin' at the door,
I can see things flashin' by the window, lord i can't take it much more!
Chorus
Yeah! yeah! yeah!
So i gave your letter to the mailman, i turned your picture to the wall,
But still you have claimed me forever, and that's what scares me most of all!

10. _ Comin' Down The Road
Yeah! yeah!
It happened just this mornin', you know i woke up feelin' so good,
The sun came over the mountain, just like i always knew it would.
Had another dream about music, you know the kind that they used to play,
There was everyone that i love to hear, marchin' to their own parade.
Chorus:
And they were comin' down the road, playin' that rock n' roll,
And dontcha feel good 'cause they're comin' down the road.
Saw that orpheum theatre, i heard a thousand screamin' guitars,
There was a greasy-haired boy with a wiggle, they thought he was a man from mars,
Rollin' along with the fat man, a piece of country-fried blueberry pie,
I said to myself "let me hear it on the hill, just one time, one time before i die."
Chorus
Yeah!

11. _ Hoodoo Man
There's a thing creepin' in the woods,
Like an ill wind that blows no good,
Women and children begin to howl,
When the moon-dog is on the prowl.
Chorus:
I'm a hoodoo-voodoo-magic man, got the devil by the horns,
His mischief in my hands. ooh-woo-woo!
Ooh-woo-wooooooooooo!
I can make like a big ugly bear,
I can fly like a bird in the air,
You could look, but you could not see,
You better make a move 'cause you know it's me.
Chorus:
Every night, when the moon gets high,
Come the children through the hoodoo sky,
All the women, they know my name,
'cause i can fade away, treat 'em all the same.

13. _ You Don't Owe Me
Don't look so bad, don't look that sad, just look at all the luck we had,
It was fun, and it was wrong.
You say you'd stay i had no more, the good luck hungered from i don't know,
Won't make it hard to say so long.
Chorus:
I said "no, no, you don't owe me; no, no you don't owe me a thing,
You don't owe me a thing.
I said "no, no, you don't owe me; no, no sure don't owe me a thing,
You don't owe me a thing.
You know you told me once, a long time ago, some of these days it would have to go,
Some of these days took us wrong
I don't mind if you hit the door, don't be fast, darlin', don't be slow,
Won't be around to watch you more.
Chorus
Oooh!

This old push-and-shovin' city life, lord, had really got me down.
I'm goin' back and leaving here tonight, get my feet on the ground.
Chorus:
I'm goin back (back to the hills), i'm goin back (back to the hills),
Goin' back (back to the hills) tonight (back to the hills).
I'm goin back (back to the hills), i'm goin back (back to the hills),
Goin' back (back to the hills) tonight (back to the hills).
My time is done for livin' on the run, and the money making schemes,
Feelin' success and takin' all the rest, empty hearts and shattered dreams.

Tell your pa i'm gonna leave it all, he won't be seeing me around,
And if you like, just come along tonight, get your feet on the ground.
