Live....in the heart of the city

Come on
Sweet talker
Walking in the shadow of the blues
Love hunter
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Fool for your loving
Ain't gonna cry no more
Ready an' willing
Take me with you
Come on
Might just take your life
Lie down
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Trouble
Mistreated
Come on


I don't go looking for trouble,
It's always coming my way,
But, I've been looking for you,
And like the summer sun, you welcome my day.

So come on, come on,
And give your man some rock 'n' roll,
And get yourself some sweet rock 'n' roll.

I'm just a soldier of fortune,
Must be the gypsy in me.
I ain't alone when I say
I never needed love so badly before.

Hear me singing "Come on, come on"!
Give your man some rock 'n' roll,
And get yourself some sweet rock 'n' roll.

I keep singing, "Come on, come on"!
"Come on, come on"!
Give your man some rock 'n' roll,
Give your man some rock 'n' roll,
Come on and get some sweet rock,
Come on and get some sweet rock,
Come on and get some sweet rock 'n' roll.

Must be the gypsy in me,
Can see the angel in you.

Sweet talker


I can tell by way you walk,
You give it all away
By the sweet way that you talk, yes you do

You got long legs, a black girl sway,
The way you shake your booty
Gives your schoolgirl game away, yes it does

You're just a sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run

I know you know
You got what it takes,
You got the fever,
But, you give me the shakes, yes you do

Straight out of Lolita
With nothing to lose,
When I got your number
My juke box blew a fuse, yes it did

You're just sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run, you better run,
So you better run, you better run
Or you better hide

Sweet talker, bad daughter,
You've just begun
The bitch is in heat
So you better run, you better run,
You better run, you better run,
Or you better hide

I can tell by way you walk,
You give it all away
By the sweet way that you talk, yes you do

You got long legs, a black girl sway,
The way you shake your booty
Gives your schoolgirl game away, yes it does

You're just a sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
Sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run

Walking in the shadow of the blues


I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it you can never understand
So many times I thought about it
And now I know just what it means to be a man

Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues

All of my life I've had a strange reputation,
I've been the black sheep of the family all along
I never know if in my heart I'm really guilty
But, I've been accused of never knowing right from wrong

Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues

My father said you're crazy,
He said what you gonna do?
I left with my guitar and said
I'll leave it up to you

I'm gonna live the life I love
And live the life I choose,
And I'm walking in the shadow of the blues

I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it I will tell you once again
All of my life I've been caught up in a crossfire,
'Cos I've been branded with the devil mark of cain

Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues,
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues

Love hunter


I need a woman to treat me good
And give me everything a good woman should
Everyday and every night
She'd be waiting on her brown-eyed boy
To come and treat her right

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you

In my time I've been a back door man,
I've taken everything I could
But, I've given all I can
I don't want no woman
To weep or moan,
I'm looking for a sweet heartbreaker
And I'm never gonna leave her alone

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
What you gonna do?
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you,
I'm a love hunter baby
What you gonna do?
I'm gonna give you all my loving
And use my tail on you

'Cos I'm a love hunter baby,
I'm a love hunter baby...

I'm a love hunter baby
Sneaking up on you

I'm sneaking up on you!

Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.
Baby, since you been around.

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, child
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.

Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.
Now that you're gone
Y'know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall
To the county line, that's why

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.

Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.
Now that you're gone
Y'know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall
Woman, to the county line, an' that's why

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
There ain't no love in the heart of town.
There ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.

There ain't no love in the heart of the city,
There ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around,
'Cos you ain't around.

Fool for your loving
I was born under a bad sign,
Left out in the cold
I'm a lonely man who knows
Just what it means to lose control

But, I took all the heartache
And turned it to shame,
Now I'm moving, moving on,
And I ain't taking the blame

Don't come running to me,
I know I've done all I can
A hard loving woman like you
Just makes a hard loving man

So I can say it to you, babe
I'll be a fool for your loving no more,
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying,
Fool for your loving no more
I'll be a fool for your loving no more

I'm tired of hiding my feelings,
You left me lonely too long
I gave my heart, and you tore it apart,
Oh, baby, you done me wrong

Don't come running to me,
I know I've done all I can
A hard loving woman like you
Just makes a hard loving man

So I can say it to you, babe
I'll be a fool for your loving no more,
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying,
Fool for your loving no more
I'll be a fool for your loving no more

I'll be a fool for your loving no more, no more, no more

So I can say it to you, babe
I'll be a fool for your loving no more,
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying,
Fool for your loving no more
A fool for your loving no more

Fool for your loving no more...

Ain't gonna cry no more


Rising with the morning sun
I turn to greet the dawn,
Knowing I must face another day

Sleepless night behind me,
Just a memory of pain,
My heart has always been a cross to bear

Lord I know the sun shine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

All around me, shadows fall,
Tho' day has just begun,
I realise I'm on my own again

Memories of broken dreams,
As distant as the sun,
Are drifting like an echo in the wind

Lord, I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try, hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

Babe, I thought about it,
But, it just ain't done good,
You hold my heart and soul within your hand

All the time, you're in my mind,
I never thought you could be so blind,
Maybe someday I will understand

Lord, I know the sun shine,
But I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today, no more

Hey, mama you drive me crazy,
Knowing you're my hearts desire,
Why'd you go and hang me up this way

You've given me love, given me love,
Now tell me what you were thinking of,
Why'd you go and steal my soul away

Lord I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

I ain't gonna cry no more

Lord I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today
Ain't gonna cry no more1

Hey, I ain't gonna cry no more today

Ready an' willing


I wanna be loved,
Don't wanna be teased.
I don't want no woman
Getting down on her knees.

I'm ready an' willing
To reach for the sun,
So I can get me some loving
Before I'm gone.

I want more, more, more, more,
I want some more
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.

I want you to rock me
All night long.
Rope an' ride me, baby,
Do me wrong.

Roll me over, make be bleed,
I'd dance with the devil
To get what I need.
I need more, more, more, more,
I need some more of that
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.

I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I'm talking about sweet satisfaction,
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
Sweet satisfaction, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing.

I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I keep on looking for

Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking...

Take me with you


Every time I see my baby home,
I wanna kiss a little better so I get stoned
Gonna spread her pretty legs so I can see,
Sweet lip honey be the death of me
And I will discover you'll be my midnight lover,
Oh babe, bring it on home to me.

Sometimes when I'm feeling low,
I go looking for a lover where the bad girls go
Sorry little girl, If you can't stay,
Your red light mama gonna show the way

And then a certain madness,
Will 'crease my heart with sadness
Oh babe, bring it on home to me
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs,
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs

I know love and what it means,
It's a skinny little girl in tight ass jeans
I love to hear'em moan and cry,
'Cos God made men to satisfy
And with the fire returning,
I feel the fever burning
Oh babe, bring it on home to me

Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs,
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs
Oh, take me with you.

Every time I see my baby home,
I wanna kiss a little better so I get stoned
Gonna spread her pretty legs so I can see,
Sweet lip honey be the death of me
And I will discover you'll be my midnight lover,
Oh babe, bring it on home to me

Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs,
Take me with you I will give you anything a woman needs
Take me with you.

Might just take your life


I got more than I asked for,
there ain't nothin' I need.
I took all till I had more,
I'm always takin' the lead

Old man shakin' dice down on the street,
try'n to make a livin' somehow
but I'm really sure about gettin' things sorted out
and I'm gettin' ready right now

You can't hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
might just take your life

I've been called by many names
and all of them are bad
I can take it all the same,
it's all I've ever had

I've got somethin' that you can't get
but one thing you can see:
gettin' there ain't easy
but it sure was hard for me

You can't hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
might just take your life

Every time I take a look
there's someone close behind
They never used to make a pass,
the things that crossed their minds

Now they tell me that it's all right
and they want to be my friend
They're ridin' on my back
When is it goin' to end?

You can't hold me,
I have told you
Might just take your life,
might just take your life,
might just take your life

Got more than I asked for,
got more than I need
Got more than I asked for,
got more than I need
Got more than I asked for,
got more than I need

Lie down


You got the smile of a Mona-Lisa,
Know it all an' giving nothing away
You make the sins of a vestal virgin,
Look nothing more that a roll in the hay

So lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care

You give an air of la Dolce Vita,
Society's made a queen out of you
Casanova couldn't take all your virtue,
But, rock 'n' roll is gonna steal it from you

So lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care

Come on, girl, it'll be alright,
Easy does it nice and slow
Woah, you know, mama, that tonight's the night,
Come on and let your feelings show

Take a look in the mirror,
Tell me what you see
If it ain't sweet surrender
You can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me

So lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care

Take a look in the mirror,
Tell me what you see
If it ain't sweet surrender
You can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me

Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care
Lie down, I think I love you,
Lie down, I think I care...

Ain't no love in the heart of the city


Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.
Baby, since you been around.

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, child
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.

Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.
Now that you're gone
Y'know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall
To the county line, that's why

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
Ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.

Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.

Y'know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall
Woman, to the county line, an' that's why

Ain't no love in the heart of the city,
There ain't no love in the heart of town.
There ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around.

There ain't no love in the heart of the city,
There ain't no love in the heart of town.
Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity,
Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around,

Trouble


I was raised a gambler's son
And before I could walk,
I had to learn how to run
And I never, never ever
Played a loaded dice
But, I rolled a lot of women
With a heart as cold as ice

On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Always coming my way,
Trouble always coming my way

Baby I'm lonely, I'm out of control,
I need someone to understand
The badness in my soul
Though I never, I never
Stole another man's wife
But, I fooled around plenty enough
And I got what I paid for

On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Trouble always coming my way

Trouble

On the run again
Looking for a place to hide,
Everywhere I look there is trouble,
Trouble always coming my way

Trouble always coming my way, trouble always coming...

Mistreated


I've been mistreated, I've been abused.
I've been struck downhearted, baby, I've been confused
'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me I've been losing my mind, you know I have.

I've been lonely, I've been cold.
I've been looking for a woman to have and hold
'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated.
Since my baby left me I've been losing, I've been losing,
I've been losing my mind, baby baby babe.

I've been mistreated, I've been abused.
I've been looking for a woman, yeh, I've been confused
'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated, ooh o-o-oh.
Since my baby left me I've been losing, losing,
I've been losing my mind, baby baby babe.
Oh oh oh, oh woman, oh woman, oh woman.

I've been losing my mind.
