IS YOUR MAMA GONNA MISS YA? (BRYAN ADAMS)
I might as well bin blind
thought I owned this world and all its time.
Made up my mind not to love again, live my life a single man,
Lady Luck, she came my way, turned my night into day,
she went huff and blew my little house down.
She went puff ya she spun me around,
she played rough, ya, she took me to town.
All I did was fool around and my whole world came tumblin´ down.
Is your mama gonna miss ya now you´re gone?...
...her little rollin´ stone?
Is mama gonna cry now she´s alone?
´Cause mama´s little girl ain´t goin´ home!
Ya! She´s goin´ with me.
I couldn´t be found, couldn´t be heard,
you couldn´t trap this free bird,
I loved to fly, shoulda heard me sing.
You came along and flapped your wings,
had my eyes on the road, foot on the floor,
tell me: "hey, who´s that knockin´ at my door?"...
...came crumblin´ down...I said: "stop!" and she said: "go!".
Looks so good I can´t say no, now we´ve gone and lost control...

HEY HONEY, I´M PACKIN´ YOU IN! (BRYAN ADAMS)
Had enough of your crazy ways...of your leavin´ for days.
Don´t wanna hear you waggin´ your chin,
sick ´n´ tired of your noisy din.
Don´t want another kick on the shin,
hey, honey, I´m packin´ you in!...
...of your faddy diets, I can´t wait for a real good fry up.
I´m gettin´ bored of microwave cookin´
and you tellin´ me how awful I´m lookin´...
...how you gotta be thin...
...I don´t wanna be the joke of the party,
I just wanna be back where I started.
I´m gettin´ out before the goin´ gets grim.
So...of you hangin´ round bars and crashin´ up my favorite car...
...of this and that, and ya askin´ for favours
and usin´ up my brand new razors.
Don´t want another cut on my chin...
...No point in hangin´ round with a restless heart,
don´t wanna let you down but I´m blowin´ this town
for a brand new start.
I want out, you want in. Forget about that weddin´ ring!
Had enough of your hand in the til...of your credit card bills.
Get on back to your next of kin...

THOUGHT I´D DIED AND GONE TO HEAVEN (BRYAN ADAMS)
"Love is forever" as I lie awake beside you.
I believed there´s no heaven, no hideaway for the lonely.
But I was wrong, crazy, it´s gotta be strong...be right.
Only wanted to stay a while...to play a while,
then you taught me to fly like a bird.
Baby, thought I´d died and gone to heaven,
such a night I never had before...
...´cause what I got there ain´t no cure for. Oooh!
It´s so easy what you do to me all night, angel,
I never loved, I swear to God, never needed no one,
´till you came along.
Here I come, baby...I feel fast asleep, I feel drunk,
I dream the sweetest dreams, never wanna wake up.
Never thought it could be this way, no doubt about it,
can´t live without it...this good,
you made love to me the way it oughta be...

NOT GUILTY (BRYAN ADAMS)
Who are you to say that I´m wrong?...I´m crazy?
Ain´t a crime of passion comin´ on strong,
I´m only trying to treat ya like a lady and I can´t help myself.
Do I have to prove my innocence?
Don´t need a lawyer with a fat degree
´cause if lovin´ you is against the law,
then you better lock me up and throw away the key.
Oh! gonna take it to the jury, Oh! gonna nail it to the wall,
Oh! gonna fight, I´m gonna prove it Oh! so let the hammer fall.
I´m not guilty, baby, I´m not. I can´t stop this feelin´ I got...
...cross my heart, not my fault if I´m fallin´ apart.
But I´m alright, Jack justa watchin´ my back...
...Won´t serve no sentence, won´t do no time,
Won´t cha listen to my plea?
Ya, the verdict is I´m doin´ fine
´cause the love-police are lookin´ out for me.
Oh! I´m gonna get a witness, Oh! I´m gonna write it on the wall,
Oh! it´s a dirty old business, Oh! ya...
...She´ll break your heart, she´ll take your mind,
she´ll steal your soul, she´s everything,
she´s a schoolboy´s dream, she´s rock´n´roll,
she´s a knockout combination, it´s a sticky situation...

VANISHING (BRYAN ADAMS)
People all over build on solid ground,
they build it up and then they tear it down.
Take it or leave it, who cares how much it costs?
They´ll never know how much is gone until it´s lost,
´till it´s vanishing.
Think I hear thunder, ain´t no sign of rain,
danger signs flashin´ in my brain, ridin´ on empty,
lights are turnin´ red.
There ain´t no lovin´ left in this empty bed, ya...
...We´re sittin´ on treasure, call it sacred ground,
why look for more, babe, when it´s right here to be found?
Never gonna lose ya, ya know I´m gonna fight,
this thing´s worth saving girl, ya know we´ll make it right.
If it takes all night, gonna swim your sea,
gonna sail your ocean, gonna shake your tree,
gonna climb your mountain, gonna shine your light,
wanna row your river, darlin´...
...build mansions in the sky, they choke on smoke
and watch their dreams go by.
When the phone stops ringin´, love has surely died,
but the grass is greener, babe, on the other side.
Never wanna lose ya...Never said it´d be easy...
...You´re gonna miss me when I´m gone,
whatcha gonna do without a shoulder to lean on...?
...ya know we gotta fight...ya know we´ll get it right...

THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER TONIGHT (BRYAN ADAMS)
Put on your best dress, darling, can´t you see the time is right?
There will never be another tonight.
If you got your motor runnin´, then I got my engines on.
Say the word and, darlin´, we´ll be gone.
Outside the world is waitin´, but we won´t lose control.
So come on, now, let the good times roll.
You gotta ride your broom right into my room,
kick off your shoes, make yourself at home,
wave your little wand, weave a little spell,
make a little magic, raise some hell...
...C´mon, baby, hold on tight...
...I don´t care if it´s wrong or right,
we got nothin´ to lose, just me and you, in your wildest dreams...
...Who cares about tomorrow?
Let the wind fill your sails, a runaway train ridin´ on the rails,
we got the bases loaded, home run, power play.
Tonight´s the night we´re goin´ all the way...
...Flash your diamonds, shine your lights...
...Some people they´re looking for paradise,
others, they´re looking for inner light.
Me, I´m just having the time of my life,
I´m headin´ out, to check it out...

IF YOU WANNA LEAVE ME -CAN I COME TOO?- (BRYAN ADAMS)
You can´t stand still for a moment...for a night.
Your feet just starta move when it´s boring,
but you gotta stick around to get it right, so...
...You can´t find love in the kitchen,
you walk the dark side of the street,
you can´t find any hope in religion,
ya gotta feel the road under your feet.
I´m gonna shed a little light...love ya every night.
We´ll get it right...If you wanna leave me, can I come, too?...
...gonna go with you! If you say "no", I´m still gonna go...
...You try´n keep dry in the water...cool in the fire.
The politics of love are getting harder,
so grab a hold, take my hand, we´ll take it higher...!

ALL I WANT IS YOU (BRYAN ADAMS)
Don´t want diamonds...gold...fashion, don´t wanna be cool...
...hustle just to get thru.
When it all comes down, babe, all I want is you...argue...fight...
...no politics, babe, all thru the night.
I told ya before, gonna tell ya once more.
For the last time, baby, open up your door...
...Not any old girl will do...
...If ya don´t need love, ya gotta be nuts.
The heaviest metal always rusts, just you and me,
babe, hangin´ tough. It´s gotta be...love or bust!
Don´t need a doctor...a nurse...a prescription,
babe, only make me feel worse...a license...insurance...
...a ticket where we´re goin´, babe. You got my assurance, ya...

DEPEND ON ME (BRYAN ADAMS)
When you´re losin´ direction, baby, you can depend on me.
For a little love and affection...
...If ya feel brokenhearted and you just can´t get started...
...Ya know it´s never easy and when you´re feelin´ blue,
there´ll be times you feel so empty, ya, sometimes I feel it, too.
Like sister to brother, father to mother,
we live for each other, we´re lover to lover.
As deep as an ocean filled with emotion,
I´m forever open, can´t you see...?
...For someone to rely on and a shoulder to cry on...
...If you´re in need of some kindness
and you can´t seem to find it...
...Well, there ain´t no need to worry, you know we´ll get along.
Those dark clouds may surround you,
but together we´ll be strong...
...Your love is a guiding light,
I´ve been watchin´ it shine, shine on, baby!
When hard times are all around
and there´s miles and miles of dirty road...
...There´s no need to carry that heavy load...
...When hope is gone and all is lost, just reach out,
take my hand, I´ll be there, I´ll be your man...

TOUCH THE HAND (BRYAN ADAMS)
Stand up! if ya wanna fight, I´m tellin´ all the women...
...for your rights.
If ya wanna wear the trousers, you wanna act like a man,
I´d love to trade ya places, love to be your thang.
I´d do all the shopping, collect you favorite suit,
press all the laundry, polish all your boots.
And if you brought me flowers, I´d meet you at the door.
Have your dinner ready, your slippers on the floor,
and when day turns to night and you feel alright,
and I turn out the lights,
touch the hand of the man who´ll make ya woman...
...who´ll make it right...
...´Cause...it´s alright.
Love to play the woman, love to play your wife,
light you favorite cigarette, pour your favorite drink,
wear your best apron, wash the dishes in the sink,
get your shaving lotion, turn the shower on,
warm up your bathrobe, keep my baby warm,
read ya bedtime stories while you take a nap,
turn on the TV, put out the cat. But...

DON´T DROP THAT BOMB ON ME (BRYAN ADAMS)
We sailed our ships upon the shores that once were out of reach,
turned the silence into war and bloodied up the beach,
trashed the forests and the trees till there´s nothin´ left to cut,
we raped the rivers and the seas, and turned the land to dust.
It goes on and on...Does anybody know what´s goin´ on?
Can anybody tell me where we went wrong?
Can anyone say why wrong is right?
If we wanna little peace, well, we got to fight...
...things are lookin´ good?
Just take a look around your neighbourhood:
the world´s gone crazy. Crash! We can fight it...
...we gotta try...we can´t hide it, we gotta stop that fire.
Don´t drop that bomb on me, save that little tree...
...Save our seven seas. Don´t drop it...
...Should everything have a life to give?
Will every little child have a place to live?
Does anybody feel just a little bit scared?
Isn´t it about time everybody cared...?
...If ya gonna talk that talk, ya gotta walk that walk.
If ya gonna fly that flag, ya gotta shake a leg.
Ya! everybody should try ´cause we´re much too young to die...

HOUSE ARREST (BRYAN ADAMS)
Well, there´s gonna be a party, gonna make some noise.
Yeah! we´re invitin´ all the girls...all the boys.
There´ll be dancin´ on the tables...on the chairs.
Ya!...in the parkin´ lots and up and down the stairs.
Alright! Close the windows, lock the doors,
turn it up, now, pack the floors.
Cops are on the outside, landlord´s on the phone,
quick! turn out all the lights, pretend there ain´t nobody home!
It´s a house arrest. Everybody run,
I gotta plead guilty havin´ too much fun...up against the wall!
We can´t stop rockin´ ,justa havin´ a ball.
One and all, won´t you come around to my place?
Don´t cha know it´s overdue?
You gotta bring your little lady, wear your dancin´ shoes.
Get a Yellow Taxi, take a limousine,
you gotta get there, it´s gonna be a scene.
It´s too late, can´t wait, get out while you can.
It was fun while it lasted, let´s do it all again...
...We bin wakin´ up the neighbours, bouncin´ off the walls,
hangin´ off the ceilings.
We´ll be dancin´ in and out of the halls!...everybody move.
...gonna raise the roof...
