| CAN'T BRING ME DOWN My chick is driving me crazy She thinks that I'm lazy Just because I'm good at nothing all day My baby don't get it So my job, I quit it Bust my ass Hell, I barely get paid People like to put me down And just because I hang around Don't they understand, it's my way? CHORUS: Everybody tries to break me Say they love me when they hate me Baby, you just can't bring me down I've seen long and lonely days And I have lost and found my way So baby, you just can't bring me...down Yeah, bring me down Baby I'm leaving You got my heart bleeding So I'm taking the easier way out The angel in my head Is now the devil in my bed If my walls could talk, they would shout Baby, you can talk and talk The hurt you caused, it just don't stop I think I'm going out of my brain CHORUS SOLO I got a car, it go fast Cute fuzzy dice up on the dash Got a bumper sticker, just say peace Keep a gun under my seat To protect me from the pain Should your words get in my brain Can't you love me just the same Can't you love me just the....

| THE LAST SONG When I lost my way You were my light When the others wronged me You did me right When I look in your eyes Don't tell me lies You tell me the truth Your words, they get me through This is all I've got This is all I'd say If this were my last day This is my last song It's all I got If I bare my soul Don't you break my heart Won't you sing along This is my last song It's all I got So don't you break my heart Wrote down these words Put them in this song I play it for you Pray they don't come out wrong Cause all I've got's my word I give it to you Now it may not be much It's the best that I can do This is all I got This is all I say So please don't walk away This is my last song It's all I got If I bare my soul Don't you break my heart Won't you sing along This is my last song It's all I got So don't you break my heart SOLO If this were my last breath Of my last day My last chance This is what I'd say I thank you for the laughter Sorry for the tears Time to say goodbye I say goodbye After all these years CHORUS You shouldn't have broke my heart |

| STRANGE I was heading down the highway She's going my way She climbed in, the next thing I knew We started laughing and smoking We got to talking Yeah, we'd both been hurt a time or two I knew she didn't love me But I didn't think she'd want me, no Right there she took me Underneath that sun, we became one She said... life's a little strange We all need a little strange somethings I'm a little strange A lot like you.... Let's ride Halfway to Boston She turned down the radio Asked what I was looking for Then I looked into her eyes And for the first time I realized I really didn't know anymore Sometimes I think I want true love Most times I feel like there's no one But in the mean time hold me tight Things will be alright I said.. Life's a little strange We all need a little strange sometimes I'm a little strange A lot like you... Let's Ride SOLO I pulled along the highway The time had come to go our way She took my hand, looked into my eyes and said won't you hold me one more time She said... Life's a little strange We all need a little strange sometimes I'm a little strange a lot Oh, a lot like you... |

| LOOK WHAT THE CAT DRAGGED IN LIVE RECORDING I went to bed too late and got up too soon My poor head still spinnin' from too much booze I got a foot in the gutter a foot in the grave I ain't seen home in the last three days Chorus: Oh my God! Look what the cat dragged in Living my life sin after sin Night rolls up and I do it again Oh my God! Look what the cat dragged in No tell, motel, hotel bed If it wasn't for the sunlight I'd swear I was dead I got a girl on the left of me a girl on the right I know damn well, I slept with both last night Chorus I'm late for work on Monday and my boss is bitching Can't get out of bed 'cause my head's still spinning My hairs in a rat's nest I look like hell Am I half alive or half dead? I just can't tell Chorus |

| I WANT ACTION LIVE RECORDING I want action tonight Satisfaction all night I grab my hat and I grab my shoes Tonight I'm gonna hit the streets and cruise Down the main strip and check it out With all those schoolgirls a hangin' around Now I'm a sucker for a pretty face I don't care if she's leather or lace 'cause I'm just lookin' for a kiss Chorus: I want action tonight Satisfaction all night You've got the love I need tonight Long legs and short skirts These girls hit me where it hurts I can't wait to get my hands on them I won't give up til they give in Now I'm not looking for a love that lasts I need a shot and I need it fast If I can't have her, I'll take and make her Chorus Solo Hey Sweetheart, slide on in here No, not in the front, jump in the back Why? 'Cause there's something back there I wanna show ya I want action tonight Satisfaction all night Ah, come on honey, I wasn't that bad! Oh well Chorus |

| SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN LIVE RECORDING Well I see him on the TV Preachin' 'bout the promised land He tells me believe in Jesus And steals the money from my hand Some say he was a good man But Lord I think he sinned, ya, ya Twenty two years of metal tears Cries a suicidal Vietnam vet Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore To find his country did not want him back Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon Our lawyers took his wife, his kids no regrets In a time I don't remember In a war he can't forget He cries forgive me for what I done there Forgive me for the things I did Chorus: And give me something to believe in If there's a Lord above Give me something to believe in Oh Lord arise My best friend died a lonely man In some Palm Springs hotel room I got the call last Christmas Eve and they told me the news i tried all night not to break down and cry As the tears rolled down my face I felt so cold and empty like a lost soul out of place And the mirror, mirror on my wall Sees my smile, it fades again Chorus Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now Things I didn't know then Road you gotta take me home Solo I drive by the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street like bodies in an open grave Underneath an old broken down neon sign, use to read Jesus Saves A mile away live the rich folk And I see how they're living it up While the poor they eat from hand to mouth The rich drink from the golden cup And it just makes me wonder why so many lose and so few win ChorusX3 You take the high road and I'll take the low road Chorus You take the high road and I'll take the low road Chorus You take the low road and I'll take the low road Chorus Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now Things I didn't know then And give me something to believe in |

| LOVE ON THE ROCKS LIVE RECORDING She goes down slow like a shot a gin She's got an angel's face and the devil's grin She kinda stared me down as I looked her up She says, "I'm your poison now drink a cup" In the heat of the night is when she comes alive She's gonna push you, push you, til she's satisfied I watched the ice melt fast on her red hot lips She whispers, "If ya wanna taste my love why don't ya swallow this" Chorus: Love on the rocks Love on the rocks She's my shot Love on the rocks Solo She gets so close you can feel her breath Just the way she moves, soft and slippery She lives just around the corner Just down the street All night we play the horizontal bop right between the sheets ChorusX2 |

| FALLEN ANGEL LIVE RECORDING She step off the bus out into the city streets Just a small town girl with her whole life packed in a suitcase by her feet But somehow the lights didn't shine as bright as they did on her mama's TV screen And work seemed harder the days seemed longer then she ever thought they'd be But you know you gotta stick to your guns when it all comes down 'Cause sometimes you can't choose It's like head they win, tails you're gonna lose Chorus: Win big, mama's fallen angel Lose big, livin' out her lies What's it all, mama's fallen angel Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life Now she found herself in the fast lane livin' day to day Turned her back on her bestfriend, yeah And watched her family slip away Just like a lost soul caught up in the Hoolywood scene All the parties and the limousines Such a good actress Hiding all her pain Trading her memories for fortune and fame Just a step away from the edge of the fall Caught between Heaven and hell Where's the girl I knew a year ago? Chorus Too much too soon or just a little too late 'Cause when her ship came in she wasn't there it just wouldn't wait Solo Chorus |

| LET IT PLAY LIVE RECORDING Did you ever get up on the wrong side of the bed With an achin' head and just falling apart You're running late and your boss is bitching It's cold outside and the car won't start Well I don't mean to bitch I swear 'Cause everybody's got their cross to bear Chorus: But when I hear the music All my troubles just fade away When I hear the music Let it play, let it play When I hear the music Sure as darkness I can see the day When I hear the music got to let it play, let it play Life's just a rented space getting laid to waste When the lines on my face say I'm growing older Just a stitch in time gonna save my mind When the weight of the world lies on my shoulders Soon I won't have no place to fit But I'll cross that bridge when I come to it Chorus Solo ChorusX3 |

| EVERY ROSE HAS IT'S THORN LIVE RECORDING We both lie silently still in the dead of the night Although we both lie close together we feel miles apart in sight Was it something I said or something I did Did my words not come out right Tho' I tried not to hurt you Tho' I tried But I guess that's why they say Chorus: Every rose has it's thorn Just like every night has it's dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has it's thorn I listen to our favorite song playing on the radio Hear the DJ say love's a game of easy come and easy go But I wonder, does he know Has he ever felt like this And I know that you'd be here right now If I could of let you known somehow, I guess Chorus Though it's been awhile now I can still feel so much pain Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals But the scar, that scar remains Solo I know I could have saved our love that night if I'd only let you know Instead of making love We both made our separate ways Now I hear you found somebody new And that I never meant that much to you To hear that tears me up inside And to see cuts me like a knife Chorus |

| UNSKINNY BOP LIVE RECORDING What's got you so jumpy Why can't you sit still Like gasoline you wanna pump me Then leave me when you get your fill ya Pre-Chorus: Every time I touch you, you get hot I want to make love, you never stop Come up for air you pull me to the floor Just what's been going on in that head of yours Chorus: Unskinny bop Just blows me away Unskinny bop, bop All night and day Unskinny bop, bop, bop, bop She just loves to play Unskinny bop nothin' more to say You look at me so funny Love bite got you acting oh so strange You got too many bees in your honey Am I just another word on your page, ya, ya Pre-Chorus Chorus You're saying my love won't do ya But that ain't love written on your face Well honey I can see right through ya We'll see whose ridin' who at the end of the race Solo What's right, what's wrong, what's left, what the hell is going on Chorus |

| NOTHIN' BUT A GOOD TIME LIVE RECORDING Now listen Not a dime, I can't pay my rent I can barely make thru the week Saturday night I'd like to make my girl but right now I can't make ends meet Pre-Chorus: I'm always workin', slavin' everyday Gotta get a break from the same old, same old I need a chance just to get away If you could hear me think this is what I'd say Chorus: Don't need nothin' but a good time How can I resist Ain't looking for nothin' but a good time And it don't get better than this They say I spend my money on women and wine I couldn't tell you where I spent last night I'm real sorry 'bout the shape I'm in I just like my fun every now and then Pre-Chorus Chorus You see I raise a toast to all of us who are breaking our backs every day If wanting the good life is such a crime Lord then put me away Solo ChorusX3 |
