Crazy Daisy's House of Dreams |
Well I know where I'm going and I know how to get there
Going back to crazy daisy's right now
It's lean, it's mean, treacherous and obscene
Where the bad times they are good forever
Got a greyhound ticket and I know I can make it
Got to keep my spirits rolling high
As I travel through the night I can see that neon sign
Welcome back to crazy daisy's right now
It's the only place I know you can drown your sorrow
Forget the past and think of tomorrow
When all hopes are down there's a refuge to be found
You can salvage some pride from the wreckage
Crazy daisy's house of dreams if you've been there you'll know what I mean
Crazy daisy's house of dreams
I'm no stranger to this place, I can hide from my disgrace
I can seek false courage in a bottle
I can lean on a shoulder try to remove the bounder
Roll the dice and hope to win the stakes
The only place I know you can help a broken man
And keep his spirits from dying
As I travel through the night I can see that neon sign
Welcome back to crazy daisy's right now
Crazy daisy's house of dreams if you've been there you'll know what I mean
Crazy daisy's house of dreams

Runaway Dreams |
Wealth and wages can make my life sweet
Wine and music can be a nice treat
Charm and beauty is pleasing the eyes
But real true love is something you can't hide
Like a minor searching for that hidden gold
When I look to love, there's no stones unturned
A man who is chasing after no wind
I'm a man who believes in love and dreams
Runaway dreams are in my head
I've got runaway dreams in my head
I exist in a world of emptiness
But everyone there seems to have success
I try to conform, try to change my ways
But love does'nt seem to come my way
I've given itthoughts I've given it will
If I don't find love it will kill
I'm searching, I'm searching for that hidden gold
For me then only, a new life could unfold
Runaway dreams are in my head
I've got runaway dreams in my head
Runaway dreams are in my head
I've got runaway dreams in my head

Gentlemen Rogues |
We're on the outskirts of time
Cruisin' around looking for some angels
Who won't turn us down
And boogie woogie all night long
Gonna kick up the dust
Fullfill our lust, if some girls don't do it
Find some who must
Boogie woogie all night long
Gentlemen rogues all through the night
Getting it on, slipping out of sight
Rock riding mamas gonna treat you right
Be your gentlemen rogues all through the night
Gonna break out loose, shake off the noose
Got the urge to let adrenalin surge tonight
Let it run tonight
Going to hit all the high spots, crack all the jackpots
Set the scene alright, cause all the strokes are flying high tonight
We're on the outskirts of time
Cruisin' around looking for some angels
Who won't turn us down
And boogie woogie all night long
Gonna kick up the dust
Fullfill our lust, if some girls don't do it
Find some who must
Boogie woogie all night long

Lonely Soul |
Thyere's a pusher on my trail and he knows I'm sinking fast
Just another victim, he knows that I can't last
And if I want to get to heaven I've got to go through hell
My soul it whispers no but my body won't let go
Blinded by this need, eternal bleeding in my heart
Visions pass before me but lost again in the dark
I'm on my way to heaven, I've done my time in hell
My soul it whispers no but my body won't let go
Frail and fragile body get weaker
Relentless craving, got me hooked completely
If I want to get to heaven, I've got to go through hell
My soul it whispers no but my body won't let go

Mama Weer all Crazee now |
Slade's song |
I don't want to drink my whiskey like you do
I don't need to spend my money but still do
Don't stop now, come on
Another drop now, come on
I wanna lot now, so come on
That's right, that's right
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
You told me, fool fire water won't hurt me
You tease me, and everybody deserts me
Don't stop now, come on
Another drop now, come on
I wanna lot now, so come on
That's right, that's right
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I don't want to drink my whiskey, but still do
I don't need to spend my money but still do
Don't stop now, come on
Another drop now, come on
I wanna lot now, so come on
That's right, that's right
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now
I said mama but weer all crazee now

Midnight Promises |
Midnight promises
Broken at dawn beyond repair
Words of lies, I could tell by your eyes
You didn't care for my feelings inside
Secrets we shared all were sacred to me
Those words of love, sweet intimacy
You left me cold as you walked out the door
My heart it cried, couldn't take anymore
I couldn't take anymore
I should have known the score
I've heard it all before
Midnight, midnight promises
Broken at dawn, lying in the ashes
Midnight, midnight promises
Beneath the covers, all you wanted was a midnight lover
All the charm has left your face
I'm just a knot caught up in your lace
Freelancing from love to love
Got a burning desire, won't let you go
Blind and defenseless, I feel under the spell
You lured me in with all of your skill
You lived off my love until you'd had enough
You walked out then in search of new blood
I couldn't take anymore
I should have known the score
I've heard it all before
Midnight, midnight promises
Broken at dawn, lying in the ashes
Midnight, midnight promises
Beneath the covers, all you wanted was a midnight lover
I couldn't take anymore
I should have known the score
I've heard it all before
Midnight, midnight promises
Broken at dawn, lying in the ashes
Midnight, midnight promises
Beneath the covers, all you wanted was a midnight lover
(REPEAT, FADE OUT)

Needle in the Groove |
Well my lady she loves to move
When the needle's in the groove
She takes the vinyl from the cover
She controls the tempo and the mood
Sometimes she likes it powerful and forceful.
Other times she likes it romantic and soulful.
Oh she really does
Cause she really loves to move
When the needles in the groove oh yeah
Well she asks all the boys around
To listen to her hi-fi sounds .
She plays them fast she plays them slow
She plays them high she plays them low
Oh she rock'n rolls all night long
She dances the night away to her favorite song oh year
Oh she really did
Cause she really loves to move
When the needle's In the groove oh yeah
She's a hi-fi freak who loves to take it to the peak
When the record's on the deck
She loses all her self respect
She loses all control over her body and soul
Loves to let all the good_times roll oh yeah,
Oh she really does
Cause she really loves to move
When the needle's in the groove oh yeah

Hard 'n' Loud |
Well l don't care what people say,
They laugh and joke when l play
Criticise and scandalise.
But it beats the hall outta nine to five
Teacher said son you`re no good
Ain't no hope ain't no use,
Rockin Roll ain't such a crime,
But don't come here to waste by time
(CHORUS)
We like it hard'n'loud
because we're young and proud.
Got my feet out the street
Tryin' hard to make ends meet,
People say won't you compromise.
So l give it to them
Straight between the eyes.
REPEAT CHORUS
No self respect no honour
Want no judge need no lawyer
Rockin Roll ain't such a crime
So don't come and waste my time.
REPEAT CHORUS

Higher Ground |
Stevie Wonder's song |
People keep on learnin
Soldiers keep on warrin
World keep on turnin
Cause it wont be too long
Powers keep on lyin
While your people keep on dyin
World keep on turnin
Cause it wont be too long
Im so darn glad he let me try it again
Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
Im so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin
Till I reach the highest ground
Teachers keep on teachin
Preachers keep on preachin
World keep on turnin
Cause it wont be too long
Oh no
Lovers keep on lovin
Believers keep on believin
Sleepers just stop sleepin
Cause it wont be too long
Oh no
Im so glad that he let me try it again
Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
Im so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin
Till I reach my highest ground...whew!
Till I reach my highest ground
No ones gonna bring me down
Oh no
Till I reach my highest ground
Dont you let nobody bring you down (theyll sho nuff try)
God is gonna show you higher ground
Hes the only friend you have around
