When I Needed You
When I needed you
To be my girl
When I needed you
To give me a world(Chorus)
When I wanted all you had
And what you gave me turned out all bad
I needed all your loveWhen I wanted you all for my own
When I wanted you
But you just left me alone(Chorus)
(Chorus x2)
I needed all your love
(Repeat) -

Make It
Good evening people, welcome to the show
Got somethin' here I want you all to know
When laughin' people bring on primal screams
You got to think of
What it's gonna take to make your dreamsMake It
Don't break it
I said Make It
Don't Brake it
Do then you feel like the world's coming down on youYou know that history repeats itself
But you just learned so by somebody else
You know you do, you gotta think up fast
You gotta figure what it's gonna take to make it last
Make It
Don't brake it
I said Make It
Don't brake it
Then you doBetter weather, pull yourself together
Don't be catchin' the blues
Better weather, pull yourself together
What have you got to lose
You're only paying your dues
Too stinkin' proud but you're gonna pay
If you're gone I'll get you anyway
Although you know what you've been going through
Your only dreams feel like a tattooMake It
Don't brake it
I said Make It
Don't brake it
Then you doBetter weather, pull yourself together
Don't be catchin' the blues
Better weather, pull yourself together
What have you got to lose -

Movin' Out (Alternate Version)
We all live on the edge of town
Where we all live ain't a soul around
People start a-comin'
All we do is just a-grin
Said we gotta move out
'Cause the city's movin' in

'Cause the city's movin' inTell me who you know
And I'll tell you who, too
Go see my friend and he'll set you free
Tell me what you see and
Mabye I can go too
No one knows the way but maybe meNobody goes there
Nobody shows where
Nobody knows where you can find me, yeahGood mornin' glory, Hallelujah to ya
What is the story, what's been goin' through ya
Livin' like a king off the fat of the land

Same Old Song and Dance
Get yourself cooler
Lay yourself low
Coincidental murder
With nothing to show
When the judge,
Constipation will go to his head
And his wife's aggravation
You'll soon end up deadIt's the same old story
Same Old Song And Dance, my friend
It's the same old story
Same Old Song And Dance, my friendGotcha with the cocaine
Found with your gun(Alt. You shady lookn' loser
you played with my gun)No smooth-faced lawyer
To get ya undone
Say, love ain't the same
On the south side of town
You could look
But you ain't gonna find it aroundIt's the same old story
Same Old Song And Dance, my friend
It's the same old story
Same old story
Same Old Song And DanceFate comes a-knockin'
Doors start lockin'
Your old time connection
Change your direction
Ain't gonna change it
Can't rearrange it
Can't stand the pain
And it's all the same to you, my friendWhen you're low down and dirty
From walkin' the street
With your old hurdy gurdy
No one to meet
Said, love ain't the same
On the south side of town
You could look
But you ain't gonna find it aroundIt's the same old story
Same Old Song And Dance, my friend
It's the same old story
Same old story

Train Kept A-Rollin'
Well on a train, I met a dame
She rather handsome
We kinda look the same
She was pretty
From New York City

Seasons of Wither
Blues hearted lady sleepy was she
Love for the devil brought her to me
Seeds of a thousand drawn to her sin
Seasons of Wither old in the endOoh woe is me I feel so badly for you
Ooh woe is me I feel so sadly for you
In time bound to lose your mind
Live on borrowed time
Take the wind right out of your sailFireflies dance in the heat of
Hound dogs that bay at the moon
My ship leaves in the midnight
Can't say I'll be back too soonshe awakens far far away
Heat of my candle show me the way
Seeds of a thousand drawn to her sin
Seasons of Wither old in the endOoh woe is me I feel so badly for you
Ooh woe is me I feel so sadly for you
In time bound to lose your mind
Live on borrowed time
Take the wind right out of your sail -

Dream On
Every time I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to payYeah, I know nobody knows
where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to winHalf my life's
in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and
from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to youSing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you awayYeah, sing with me, sing for the year
sing for the laughter, sing for the tear

Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you awayDream On Dream On Dream On
Dream until your dream comes true

Pandora's Box
When I'm in heat
Someone gets a notion
I jump to my feet
I hoof it to the ocean
We hit a beach
Where no one gives a hoot
Nobody never ever wears a suit
The ladies there
They look so proud
That's 'cause they know
That they've been so well endowedNow, I ain't much
For Fannie's conversation
Or care to much
About her operation
But every time Pandora comes my way
I get high
Can't explain the sensation
To get it on
I gotta watch what I say
Or I'll catch hell
From the women's liberation(Chorus)
Sweet Pandora
God-like aura
Smell like a flora
Open up your door-a for me
Sweet Pandora
God-like aura
Smell like a flora
Open up your door-a for me
Sweet Pandora
Mama crack a smile for me
Just for me, just for me
Just for me, just for me
Just for me, just for me
Just for meNow I ain't what
You'd call a city slicker
Or claim to fame
To be a slitty lickerBut every time Pandora comes my way
I get high
Can't explain the sensation
To get it on
I gotta watch what I say
Or I'll catch hell
From the women's liberation(Chorus)

Round and Round
If you believe in me
Like I believe in you
You wouldn't be tellin' me things
That weren't exactly trueNow everything changes
Ain't got nothing to say
I'm having the strangest feeling, baby
I can't remember my name'Cause the life I've been livin'
And the love I've been givin'
Will be sure to send you spinnin'
With your feet never touching the ground
Goin' round n' roundWhen it was one for all
And it was all for one
And everything that we did
Never bothered anyoneNow everything changes
Ain't nothing the same
I'm having the strangest feeling, baby
I can't remember my name'Cause the life I've been livin'
And the love I've been givin'
Will be sure to send you spinnin'
With your feet never touching the ground
Goin' round n' roundCan you remember the days
When you were sweet sixteen
And always followed the ways
Of someone elses dream(Look here)
Now everything changes
Ain't nothing the same
I'm having the strangest feeling, baby
I can't remember my nameGoin' round n' round n' round n' round....

Sweet Emotion
Sweet Emotion
Sweet EmotionYou talk about things that nobody cares
You're wearing out things that nobody wears
You're calling my name but I gotta make clear
I can't say baby where I'll be in a yearWhen some Sweat Hot mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go musta got up and went
Well I got good news, she's a real good liar
'Cause the backstage boogie set your pants on fireSweet Emotion
Sweet EmotionWhen I pulled into town in a police car
Your daddy said I took it just a little too far
You're telling me things but your girlfriend lied
You can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died
Yes it didYou stand in the front just a shakin' your ass
I'll take you backstage, you can drink from my glass
I'll talk about something you're sure to understand
'Cause a month on the road an' I'll be eating from your hand -

No More No More
Blood stains the ivories
Of my daddy's baby grand
I aint' seen no daylight
Since we started this band
No More, No More
No More, No MoreStore bought clothes
fallin' appart at the seams
Tea leaf readin' gypsies
Fortune tellin' my dreamsNo More, No More
No More, No MoreHoliday Inns, lock the door with a chain
You love it and you hate it
But to me they're all the sameNo More, No More
No More, No MoreBaby I'm a dreamer
Found my horse and carriageStalemate jailbait
Ladies can't refuse
You love 'em then you leave 'em
With your sold out reviewsNo More, No More
No More, No MoreSweet talkin' barroom, ladies' disease
Slippin' with her lips
Slidin' down your kneesNo More, No More
No More, No More
No More, No MoreBaby I'm a screamer
Bound to a wife in marriage
Baby, I'm a dreamer
Found my horse and carriageLadies hold the aces
And their lovers call it passion
The men call it pleasure
But to me it's old fashionedTimes they're a changin
Nothin' ever stands still
If I don't stop changin'
I'll be writin' out my willIt's the same old story
Never get a second chance
For a dance to the top of the hillBaby I'm a dreamer
Found my horse and carriage -

Walk This Way
Backstroke lover always hidin' 'neath the covers
'Til I talked to your daddy he say
He said you ain't seen nothin' 'til you're down on a MUFF AND
Then you're sure to be a-changin' your way
I met a cheerleader was a real young bleeder
Oh the times I could reminisce
'Cause the best things of lovin' with her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss
A like thisSee-saw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
Singin' hey diddle diddle
With your kitty in the middle of the swing like you didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin' 'cause she knew what she was doin'And I know love was here to stay
When she told me toWalk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this wayA just gimme a kiss
Like thisSchool girl sweetie with a sassy kinda classy
Little skirt's climbin' way up the knee
It was three young ladies in a school gym locker
When I noticed they were lookin' at me
I was a high school loser never made it with a lady
'Til the boys told me something I missed
Then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
So I gave her just a little kiss
A like thisSeesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
I sing hey diddle diddy
Wit'cha kitty in the middle of the swing like ya didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin' 'cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me toWalk this way
Talk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Walk this way
Talk this wayA just gimme a kiss

I Wanna Know Why ("Texxas Jam" Live)
Kickin' down the road
Feelin' mighty slowed
With the likes of youGettin' mighty spaced
Never had a taste
Of what you're goin' throughI can't bitch
Went from rags to riches
Then to ragtime screamin' the blues(Chorus)
I Wanna Know Why
Everybody's good intention
Try to make a fool outta me
I Wanna Know Why
Everybody's good intention
Gotta make a fool
Gotta make a fool
Try to make a fool outta meSwing low

When the whore's comin' on for the play(Chorus)

And words lost the last
Of the best thing he ever had(Chorus)

Ain't foolin' me

'cept for my big ten-inchRecord of the band that plays the blues
Band that plays the blues
She just loved my Big Ten Inch

Goin' under, Rats In The Cellar
Goin' under, skin's turnin' yella
Nose is runny, losin' my connection
Losin' money, getting no affectionNew York City blues
East side, West side rules
Throw me in the slam
Catch me if you can
Believe
That you're tearing
Tearing me apartAin't complaining, 'cause everything's rotten
Go insanin', and ain't a thing forgotten
Feelin' cozy, Rats In The Cellar
Cheeks are rosy, skin's turning yella
Loose and soggy, lookin' mighty lazy
Consume my body, pushin up a-daisiesNew York City blues
East side, west side rules
Throw me in the slam
Catch me if you can
Believe
That you're tearing
Tearing me apart(Guitar & Harmonica Solo)
New York City blues
East side, west side rules
Throw me in the slam
Catch me if you can
Believe
That you're tearing
Tearing me apart -

Last Child (Remix)
I'm dreaming tonight
I'm leaving back home
Right!Take me back to a south Tallahassee
Down cross the bridge to my sweet sassafrassy
Can't stand up on my feet in the city
Got to get back to the real nitty grittyYes sir, no sir, Don't come closer
My home sweet home can't catch no dose
Of a hard tail poon tang sweetheart sweat
Who could make silk purse from a J. Paul Get' and his ear
With her face in a beerHome sweet home
Get out in the field, Put the mule in the stable
Ma she's a cookin', Put the eats on the table
Hate's in the city, And my love's in the meadowHands on the plow, And my feets in the ghetto
Stand up, sit down, Don't do nothing
It ain't no good when boss man's
Stuffin' it down their throats, for paper notes
And the babies cry while cities lie at their feet
When you're rockin' the streetHome sweet home
Mama take me home sweet home
I was a last child
Just a punk in the streetI was a last child
Just a punk in the streetI was a last child
Just a punk in the streetI was a last child
Just a punk in the streetI was a last child
Just a punk in the streetI was a last child
Just a punk in the street -

Nobody's Fault
Lord I must be dreamin'
What else could this be
Everybody's screamin'
Runnin' for the seaHoly lands are SINKIN'
Birds take to the sky
The prophets all are stinkin' drunk
I know the reason whyEyes are full of desire
Mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire
Shit piled up to the kneesOut of RHYME or reason
Everyone's to blame
Children of the season
Don't be lameSorry
You're so sorry
Don't be sorryMan has known
And now he's blown it
Upside down
And hell's the only sound
We did an awful job
And now they say
It's Nobody's FaultOld SAN ANDREAS
Seven years ago
Shove it up their richters
Red lines stop and goNoblemen of courage
Listen with their ears
Spoke but how discouragin'
When no one really hearsOne of these days you'll be sorry
Too many houses on the stilt
Three million years or just a story
Four on the floor up to the hiltOut of RHYME or reason
Everyone's to blame
Children of the season
Don't be lameSorry
You're so sorry
Don't be sorryMan has known
And now he's blown it
Upside down
And hell's the only sound
We did an awful job
And now we're just a little too lateEyes are full of desire
Mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire
Shit piled up in debrisCalifornia showtime
Five o'clock's the news
Said everybody's concubine
Was GOIN' to take a snoozeSorry
You're so sorry

Lick and a Promise
Johnny come late on a Saturday night
Singin' how de go
Backstage boogie in the house of delight
Where they steal the show
money comes sour but the ladies are sweet
it's a love affair
Whole place rockin', people stompin' their feet
When the gang's all thereHe gets his woman every night for free
He's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe
Singin' na, na, na...Johnny like to gamble with his lady Louise
She was a black jack deuces are wild
He got to thinking 'bout his nose in the breeze
And there Johnny looked and he smiled
He started thinking 'bout the fortune and fame
with the young girls down at his knees
He dug the money but forgot all the names
So he knew just how to appeaseLick And A Promise
Lick And A Promise
Lick And A Promise
(He gave the ladies a) Lick And A PromiseLick and a promise
(he gave the ladies a) Lick and a promiseLoose change clover in his early, early years
Had his poor mama pacin' the floors
He grabbed a guitar and a couple of beers
Now the crowd keeps screamin' for moreHe gets his woman every night for free
He's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe
Singin' na, na, na... -

Adam's Apple (Live)
Back when Cain was able
Way before the stable
Lighting struck right down from the sky
A mother ship with fate said let's give it a try
Conscience was related
Man he was created
Lady luck took him by surprise
A sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes
Well she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Well she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right right
Even Eve in Eden
Voices tried deceiving
With lies that showed the lady the way
At first she stopped and turned and tried to walk away
Man he was believer
Lady was deceiver
So the story goes but you see
The snake was he and she just climbed right up his tree
So she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Well she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right right
Whooooaaa......
Conscience was related
Man he was created
When lady luck took him by surprise
The sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes
Evil came like reignin
Who knows who's to blamin
Something tried to lay her to waste
And all she want and need was just a little taste
Whooa, she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Well she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right right
Well she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Yeah she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right
Oh that's right -

Draw the Line (Remix)
Checkmate honey
Beat you at your own damn game
No dice honey
I'm livin' on the astral plane
Feet's on the ground
And your head's going down the drain
Heads I win, tails you lose
To the, nevermindNowhere to you Draw The Line
An indian summer
Carrie was all over the floor
She was a wet nap winner
And rarely ever left the store
She'd sing and dance all night
And wrung all the right outta me
Pass me the vial, and cross your fingers
It don't take timeNowhere to Draw The Line
Hi ho silver
We were singin' all your cowboy songsYou told Carrie
And promised her you wouldn't be long
Heads I win, tails you lose
Lord it's such a crime
No dice honey
You're the salt, you're the queen of the brine
Checkmate honey
You're the only one who's got to chooseWhere to Draw The Line
Checkmate, don't be late
Take another pull
That's right
You're Impossible
When you got to be yourself
You're the boss, the toss
Of the dice, the price
Grab yourself a sliceNowhere to Draw The Line,
Oo line x11 -

Critical Mass
Arriving in boats
Black hooded coats
Tormentors climbed into my room
I crawled under my bed
Covered my head
But they're flushin' me out with a broom
The leader, she's small
Pinned my ass to the wall
For my seeds or she'd be losin' her past
Time after time
She'd be readin' my mind
But she never got the feelin' to lastCelebrate, celebrate, celebrate it
This is Critcal MassSo far, so good
I heard the other say
So good, so far
They're takin' me away
I drink to you, your mind, her ass
We'll take a drink and break the glass
Celebrate, celebrate, celebrake it
This is Critical MassNow the tallest of two
With a brush full of blue
Paints surrealist scenes on the wall
So I tell her for fun
That it's really well done
But she just ain't listenin' at all
She points to my heart
Tellin' me if I'm smart
I'll practise and phase
Out and admit, when the shoe doesn't fit
And I went screamin' out down the hallReally need it
Really need your love
Just then I heard a poundin' on the wall
We're all there, sang the voice of twenty more
I drink to you alas
We'll take a drink and break the glass
Celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
We are the Critical Mass
Time and space is takin' me away
Time erase, don't know the time of day -

Kings and Queens (Live)
Long ago in days untold
Were ruled by lords of greed
Maidens fair, with gold they dared
To bare their wombs that bleed
Kings And Queens and guillotines
Taking lives denied
Starch and parchments laid the laws
When bishops took the rideOnly to decieve
Oh I know I
Lived this life before
Somehow I know now
Truths I must be sure
Tossin' turnin', nightmares burnin'
Dreams of swords in hand
Sailing ships, the viking spits
The blood of father's landOnly to decieve
Living times of knights and mares
Raising swords for maidens fair
Sneer at death, fear only loss of pride
Living other centuries
Deja vu or what you please
Follows true to all who do or die
Screams of no reply
They died
Screams of no reply
And died
Lordy, Lordy, they diedLive and do or die
(Long ago were days I told...Lord they died)
(Kings and queens and guillotines...)
Live and no reply they died
(Long ago were days I told...)
(Kings and queens and guillotines...) -

I met a babe in a backseat drive-in
Back in the saddle she'd sit
Pulled on the reins just to keep me risin'
She loved to chomp at the bitDaddy do it, oh, just do it
Daddy do it, please let me see
Do it, please just do it daddy
Do it, do it, drivin' me crazyShe walks away with her eyes
Down on her bootlace
She lives to give it away
She don't believe in the right or the wrong case
She's always liable to sayDaddy do it, oh, just do it
Daddy do it, please let me see
Do it, please just do it daddy
Do it, do it, drivin' me crazy(Cheese Cake), looser than her sister

She knows I can't resist her (Cheese Cake)
Got my fingers in her pie (Cheese Cake)

Everybody kissed her (Cheese Cake)
At the crack of dawn (Cheese Cake)Daddy do it, oh, just do it

Bone to Bone (Coney Island White Fish Boy)
Flatbush boy cruisin' Sheepshead Bay
His boardwalk mama just a sniff away
Underground DMT, ridin' thunder train
The Cone Island White Fish Boy is on the run againOh, runnin' with the pack
Oh, never lookin' back
Oh, know just where he's been
That Coney Island White Fish Boy's
Been there and back againSixteen years with his boardwalk queen
And at steeplechase, she used to wet his dreams
She combs her hair, that flamin' jewel
Streaked with clorox bleach
Coney gettin' down and dirty
Snortin' up the beachShe'd be screamin' (Coney)

No Surprize
Nineteen seventy one
We all heard the starters gun
New York is such a pity
But at Max's Kansas City we wonWe all shot the shit at the bar
With Johnny O'Toole and his scar
And then old Clive Davis said
He's surely gonna make us a star
I'm gonna make you a star
Just the way you areBut with all his style
I could see in his eyes
That we is goin' to trialIt was No Surprise
The boys kept kickin' ass
As usual time would tell
But some bitch in the choir
Threw water on the fires of hell
She loved to show and tell
Lord she loved to tellBut with all our style
You could see in our eyes
That we is still on trialAnd it was No Surprize
No Surprize
No Surprize
No SurprizeMidnight lady
Situation fetal
Vaccinate your ass
With a phonograph needleI say
Look it here
Friend of mine
Scratch like you need calomine
Flamingo boots
Sole's a creakin'
Still in love and Puerto Rican tooRidin' on the wheels of hell
Smokin' in our axle grease
Oh the backstage is rockin'
And we're coppin' from the local police
That's right the local police
Or the justice of peaceBut with all our style
You could see in our eyes
That we is still on trialBaby it's No Surprise
No Surprise
No Surprise
No SurpriseRock and roll
Junkie whore
Got my foot inside the door
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock
Nobody's keepin' scoreBad times
Go away
Come again some other day
Topaz and sazzafrazz
Will keep the blues awayCandy store

Got no place to run
Got no place to hide
Sittin' at the railway station
destination far behind, behind
Lived my life for love
Love that's hard to find
Some are givers, I'm a taker
Love can make you blind
Make you blindGot no time to lose
Time you just can't find
Give a dozen yesterday's
To make tomorrow mine
Make it mineGot one life to live
That just borrow time
Don't close or blink your eyes
You lose your chance to fly
Chance to flyGot no place to run
Got no place to hide
Sittin' at the railway station
Destination far behind, behindLived my life for love
Love that's hard to find
Some are givers, I'm a taker
Love can make you blind
Make you blind -

If you strike it night and day
If hammer I must

By the light of the moon

She crazy horse saloon

She turned to give me a wink
That make a grown man cryI'm back in the saddle again

All right until the rising sun
I'm calling all the shots tonight
I'm like a loaded gun
Peelin' off my boots and chaps
I'm saddle sore
Four bits gets you time in the racks
I scream for more
Fools' gold out of their mines
The girls are soaking wet
Not tongue's drier than mine
I'll come when I get backI'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm riding, I'm loading up my pistol
I'm riding, I really got a fistful

I'm riding, this snake is gonna rattleI'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle againRidin' high
Ridin' high
