Fool for the city
Home in my hand
I just want to make love to you
Road fever
Honey hush
Slow ride
Fool for the city
Goin' to the city, got you on my mind
Country sure is pretty, I leave it all behind
This is my decision, I'm comin' home to stay this time
(Cause I'm a)

Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

Breathin' all the clean air, sittin' in the sun
When I get my train fare, I'll get up and run
I'm heading for the city, evolution here I come
(Cause I'm a)

Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

I ain't no country boy, I'm just a home-sick man
I'm gonna hit the brick just as fast as I can
I get off on Main Street, step into the crowd
Sidewalk under my feet, yeah, traffic's good and loud
When I see my inner-city, child, I'll be walkin' on a cloud
(Cause I'm a)

Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city
Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

Home in my hand
Thumbin' a ride to Geneva, standing in the falling rain,
Getting dirty looks, I wish I could've took a train.
Your friends said, "Why did you leave her?" - I had to make it on my own,
Now I'm standing on the highway, tryin' to find my way alone.

Well I got my home in my hand - travelin' across the land,
Tryin' to earn a living, givin' everything I can.

It's getting so hard to remember, it's even harder to forget,
Well if I don't find a way, how'm I gonna pay my debt?

Well I got my home in my hand - travelin' across the land,
Tryin' to earn a living, givin' everything I can.

{Rod - Slide Solo}
Slide on!

Well I got my home in my hand - travelin' across the land,
Tryin' to earn a living, givin' everything I can.

Well I got my home in my hand - travelin' across the land,
Tryin' to earn a living, givin' everything I can,
Tryin' to earn a living, giving everything I can.
(Home in my hand, home in my hand)
(Home in my hand, ho-o-ome in my hand)
Yes I've got my home (Home in my hand, home in my hand)
Ooh I've got my home (Home in my hand, ho-o-ome in my hand)
Well I've got my home in my hand,
Yes I've got my home, home in my hand,
Well you know I'm travelin' across the land,
Yes I've got my home in my hand.
Well I've got my home (home in my hand)
Well I've got my home (home in my hand)
Well I've got my home (home in my hand)
Yes I've got my home (ho-o-ome in my hand)
Yes I've got my home (home in my hand)
Well I've got my home (home in my hand)
You know I've got my home (home in my hand)
Well I've got my home (ho-o-ome in my hand)
Yes I got my home (home in my hand)
You know I got my home (home in my hand)
I said I got my home (home in my hand)
Yeah I got my home (ho-o-ome in my hand)

I just want to make love to you
I don't want you, cook my bread,
I don't want you, make my bed,
I don't want your money too,
I just wanna make love to you.

I don't want you, be no slave,
I don't want you, work all day,
I don't want you to be sad and blue,
I just wanna make love to you.

I can tell by the way that you baby talk,
I can see by the way that you switch and walk,
I can tell by the way that you treat your man,
But I could love you baby, it's a cryin' shame.

I don't want you, wash my clothes,
I don't want you, keep a home,
I don't want you to be true,
I just wanna make love to you.

{Rod - Solo}

I don't want you, be no slave,
I don't want you, work all day,
I don't want you to be true,
I just wanna make love to you.

I don't want you, keep a home,
I don't want you, wash my clothes,
I don't want you to be true,
I just wanna make love...

Road fever
I'm back on the road and I ain't gonna stop,
Goin' to roll 'til I'm old, gonna rock 'til I drop.
Out of the smog, headin' into the sun,
I'm goin' to New Orleans, Bourbon Street here I come!

Road fever, wheels turnin' in the rain,
Road fever, fire burnin' in my brain,
Give her the gun, drive like a hurricane.

Got the heat up high, and the radio's on,
Diggin' rock and roll music while we're ridin' along.
Maybe Atlanta, may be Birmingham,
I know where I'm going, God knows where I am!

Road fever, wheels turnin' in the rain,
Road fever, fire burnin' in my brain,
Give her the gun, drive like a hurricane.

{Riffs, Dave - Solo, Riffs}

Speeding along like a bullet from a gun,
It's a three day ride, we're gonna make it in one.
I'm back on the road and I ain't gonna stop,
Goin' to roll 'til I'm old, gonna rock 'til I drop.

Road fever, wheels turnin' in the rain,
Road fever, fire burnin' in my brain,
Go driver go! Move like a hurricane.

{Riffs, Dave and Rod trading licks}
Woo!
Go driver go!
We're gone
Woo!
Yea, we're goin' to New Orleans
We're goin' to New Orleans
Look out here I come
Whoo!

Honey hush
Come on in this house, stop all that yakety-yak,
Come on in this house, stop all that yakety-yak,
Don't make me nervous, holdin' a baseball bat.

You keep on yappin', talkin' 'bout this 'n that,
Well you keep on yappin', talkin' 'bout this 'n that,
Got news for you baby, you're nothing but an alley cat.

Well it's hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver away, yeah... whoo!
Honey hush!

{Rod - Solo}

Turn out the water works baby, they don't move me no more,
Turn out the water works baby, they don't move me no more,
When I leave this town, ain't comin' back no more, no.

So it's hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver away, yea.

Well it's hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver,
Hi-yo, hi-yo silver away, yea.
I'm gone!

{Rod - Solo}

Yeah!
Turn out the water works baby!
They don't move me no more.
Honey hush,
Whoo!
