Crazy Like A Fox
Hello everybody and welcome, hello
 

Stand back, you got to give the girl room to move
Stand back, you got to let her pander on through
I know you think she's acting the baby
And she's playing crazy games for you
But she's crazy like a fox and that fox got her eyes on you

Stand back, you got to give the girl room to dance
Stand back, she's gonna love ya if you gonna have a chance
I know you think she's acting to try one
And she's playing crazy games with you
But she's crazy like a fox and that fox got her eyes on you

Stand back, you got to give the little lady room to breath
Stand back, I can see your trembling at your knees
I know you think she's acting the baby
And she's playing crazy games for you
But she's crazy like a fox and that fox has got her eyes on you
Yeah, she's crazy like a fox and that fox has got her eyes on you
I said, she's crazy like a fox and that fox has got her eyes on you

Solid Gold
It's number one- it's number one
On your local radio - on your local radio
In the hall of fame
I'll be named for my contribution

It's solid gold - it's sold gold
I'm overcome with joy - and he's overcome with joy
And now I've topped the charts
Bless your hearts, I'm an institution

I tip my hat to - I tip my hat to
Captains of industry - captains of industry
You made me what I am
A once unknown production, I'm a household word today

I want to tell the world - and he wants to tell the world
That the tax will bite - bite
It's all right - right
Because I'm making millions

Solid gold, solid gold, solid gold
Solid gold, solid gold, solid gold

I'm on my way - he's on his way
To a life of luxury - to a life of luxury
Now I can't back out
There is no doubt I was meant to make it

Taking all this time to hear them say

It's solid gold - solid gold
Solid gold - solid gold
All mine, solid, solid gold
Lovely solid gold, solid gold
Lots and lots of solid, solid gold
Give me more MCA
More gold, solid gold
I'll do anything for gold

Don't Worry Baby
Well, its been building up inside of me for, oh, I don't know how long
I don't know why but I keep thinking something's bound to go wrong
But she looks in my eyes and makes me realize
When she says, "Don't worry baby everything will turn out alright."
Don't worry baby

I guess I should've kept my mouth shut when I started to brag about my car
But I can't back down now cos I pushed the other guys too far
She makes me come alive and makes me realize
When she says, "Don't worry baby everything will turn out alright."
Don't worry baby

She told me "Baby, when you race today just take along my love with you
And if you knew how much I loved you baby, nothing could go wrong with you."
Oh, what she does to me when she makes love to me
And she says, "Don't worry baby everything will turn out alright."
Don't worry baby

Oh, what she does to me when she makes love with me
And she says, "Don't worry baby."
Don't worry baby, don't worry baby
Don't worry baby, don't worry baby
Don't worry baby, don't worry baby

One Night Stand
Heard the call and I packed it all and I'm on the road again
You can help to ease my low and I will be your friend
But the morning brings the sunlight
And the sunlight brings my friend
So I say goodbye to lonely, I want LA back again

One night stand in New York City
Lights are bright and the girls are pretty
Held her heart and I held her hand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night stand

Oklahoma, Arizona - wish I knew for sure
Came to town and I held my ground, that's what I came hear for
But the voices in the distance and their calling me back home
I'll be leaving in the morning, guess my fate is not my own

One night stand in New York City
Lights are bright and the girls are pretty
Held her heart and I held her hand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night stand

Gypsy queens and magazines living off the land
Don't make ties and don't tell lies, do the best you can
But of every place I've been to and of every thing I've seen
I feel lonesome among strangers, I feel naked without strings

One night stand in New York City
Lights are bright and the girls are pretty
Held her heart and I held her hand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night stand
Goodbye lady, I'm a one night stand

The Kids Are Alright
I don't mind other guys dancing with my girl
That's fine, I know them all pretty well
But I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind where the kids, they're alright
The kids are alright

Sometimes I feel I gotta get away
Bells chime, I know I got to get away
But I know if I don't I go out of my mind
Better leave her behind where the kids, they're alright

I don't mind other guys dancing with my girl
That's fine, I know them all pretty well
But I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind where the kids, they're alright
The kids they're alright

Sometimes I feel I gotta get away
Bells chime, I know I gotta get away
And I know if I don't I'll go out of my mind
Better leave her behind where the kids, they're alright
The kids they're alright
The kids they're alright
The kids they're alright

Move Over Ms. L
Well, now the underground and overground, they come out just the same
Don't wanna get too real man, just wanna play the game
I guess you knew it all along, we was singing in the rain
Don't get hipped to down trip, the ship is sailing yet
And if it sinks you know that all you really get is wet

Move over, Ms L - you know I wish you well
Move over, Ms L - you know I wish you well
Move over, Ms L

Now, to err is something human and forgiving so divine
I'll forgive your trespasses if you forgive me mine
And life's a deal, you knew it when you signed the dotted line
They nail you to the paper, put a rope around your neck
And so we sing along, the boy stood on the burning deck

Move over, Ms L - you know I wish you well
Move over, Ms L - you know I wish you well
Move over, Ms L

Well now, Momma and Poppa told me, "Son you better watch your head
Your head is full of snakes, you know you're better red than dead."
They're starving back in China, boy, that's what they always said
Can't get head in the head shop, your jeans are full of crap
You're full of beans, you're in your teens, you lost your Momma's road map

Move over, Ms L - you know I wish you well
Move over, Ms L - you know I wish you well
Move over, Ms L
Move over, Ms L

Teenage Idol
Some people call me a teenage idol, some people say they envy me
I guess they've got no way of knowing how lonesome I can be
I need somebody to be my baby, someone to tell my troubles to
I got no time to ever find her cos I'm just passing through

I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
Now, I've found fortune and fame, lots of people know my name
But that don't mean a thing if I'm all alone

I got no rest when I'm feeling weary, I got to pack my bags and go
I got to be somewhere tomorrow to smile and do my show

Some people call me a teenage idol, some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing how lonesome I can be
How lonesome I can be

Back Door Sally
Backdoor Sally, won't you let me in
I'm out here in the alley, can't you hear me knocking
I'm nervous as a pussycat in a dog pound
Come on Sally, girl, stop your messing around
We can have a lot of fun, balling to the break of dawn
Backdoor Sally, won't you let me in

Backdoor Sally, hey, open up the door
I know that you are in there, I can hear rock and roll
I can hear you in the hall dancing all by yourself
Are you gonna leave me here playing with myself
We can have a lot of fun, balling to the break of dawn
Backdoor Sally, won't you let me in

Backdoor Sally, Backdoor Sally, Backdoor Sally
Backdoor Sally, Backdoor Sally, Backdoor Sally
Let me in 

Hey, Sally love, my knuckles getting sore
Been knocking thirty minutes on your back door
The music's getting louder every minute it seems
Is there someone else in there with you doin' the thing
We can have a lot of fun, balling to the break of dawn
Backdoor Sally, won't you let me in

We can have a lot of fun, balling to the break of dawn
Backdoor Sally, won't you let me in
Backdoor Sally, Backdoor Sally
Backdoor Sally, Backdoor Sally

In My Life
There are places I remember all my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better, some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers there is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning when I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

Together
Life isn't easy when two are divided and one has decided
To bring down the curtain, but one things for certain
There's nothing to keep them together
How does it happen, that two can be tender
And one be the lender of love and emotion
That covered the ocean of sadness that kept them together

Love will start with you, it is easy to measure it
Bury a treasure in it, it's not an adventure
It's more to be certain it had to be shared together
Love was growing, full of surprises
Its temperature rises, from higher to higher
Then turns into fire which has to be shared together

And here he is, that well known star of stage, screen and the rainbow
Mister Keith Moon - let's hear if for Keith
It's such a pleasure to see you again old chap, old buddy, old friend

And you
A suprise to see, yes, your friend and his - Mister Ringo Starr

I don't think we're talking terribly, terribly British
That is what the man asked for, didn't he Daphne

Yes you did

My girl's so ugly, when she gets up in the morning to do her teeth
The toothpaste backs away down the tube
She's a wonderful woman
My dog doesn't eat meat

Your dog, why doesn't your dog eat meat

We don't give it any

Why don't you give your dog meat

He's been dead two years now
I'm glad I got that one in
Well, I think we covered it, don't you

Covered it, I think we buried it

Well, well, well, we could do this all week, but I have a bed to catch
Good night and over to you

Love when it's growing is full of surprises
Its temperature rises, from higher to higher
And then turns into fire which has to be shared together

How does it happen, that two can be tender
And one be the lender of love and emotion
That covered the ocean of sadness that kept them together


In my life I love you more
