When I needed You
(Tyler)

When I needed you to be my girl
When I needed you to give me the world
When I wanted all you had
And what you gave me turned out all bad
I needed all your love

When I wanted you for my own
When I wanted you but you just left me alone
When I wanted all you had
And what you gave me turned out all bad
I needed all your love

When I wanted all you had
And what you gave me turned out all bad
I needed all your love

When I wanted all you had
But what you gave me turned out all bad
I needed all your love
I needed all your love
I needed all your love


Make It
(Tyler)

Good evening people, welcome to the show
Got something here I want you all to know
When laughin' people bring on primal screams
You got to think of what it's gonna take to make your dreams

Make it
Don't break it
I said make it
Don't break it
Do then ya feel like the world's coming down on you

You know that history repeats itself
But you just learned so by somebody else
You know you do, you gotta think up fast
You gotta figure what it's gonna take to make it last

Make it
Don't fake it
Said make it
Don't fake it
Better weather, pull yourself together
Don't be catchin' the blues
Better weather, pull yourself together
What have you got to lose
You're only paying your dues

You're only paying your dues
If you're gone I'll get you anyway
Although you know what you've been going through

Make it
Don't break it
I said make it
Don't break it
Better weather, pull yourself together
Don't be catchin' the blues
Better weather, pull yourself together
What have you got to lose


Movin' Out
(Tyler/Perry)

We all live on the edge of town
Where we all live ain't a soul around
People start a-comin', all we do is just a-grin
Said we gotta move out cause the city's movin' in
I said we gotta move out cause the city's movin' in

Tell me who ya know, and I'll tell ya who too
Go see my friend and he'll set you free
Tell me what you need and maybe I can go too
No one knows the way but maybe me

Nobody goes there, nobody shows where
Nobody knows where you can find me

Good morning glory, halleluh to ya
What is the story and what's been goin' through ya?
Livin' like a king off the fat of the land
Workin' like a dog in a rock n' roll band

We're movin' -- we're gettin' out
We're movin' -- without a doubt
We're movin' -- we're goin' far
We're movin' -- oh yes we are

Nobody goes there, nobody shows where
Nobody knows where you can find me

Level with God and you're in tune with the universe
Talk with yourself and you'll hear what you wanna know
Gotta rise above cause below it's only gettin' worse
Life in time will take you where you wanna go, where you wanna go, x's a bunch
Baby catch ya round, I don't know where I'm goin'


Monkey On My Back
(Tyler/Perry)

Woe is me
Well I been dyin'
Got to get that monkey off my back

The fortune teller looked into my eyeballs
The wrinkles on her face about to crack
She said you best believe it, you ain't goin' nowhere
Unless you get that monkey off your back

Well, I made believe the devil made me do it
I was the evil leader of the pack
You best believe I had it all and then I blew it
Feedin' that fuckin' monkey on my back

Ahh, if you put it in a spoon man I would boot it
Some king whose mental house was just a shack
Where do you draw the line
When all your friends are dyin'
Got to get that monkey off your back

Your crystal ball is where you chase the dragon
She said now bring me home his head inside a sack
But now you find your crystal balls are draggin'
Got to get that monkey off your back


One Way Street
(Tyler)

Hey look yonder
What's that I see
Well that old bogus, honey comin' after me

I goin' told you
Was out of town
I wonder how she knowed I was hangin' around

Say, listen babe
Don't go wastin' your time
You keep comin' 'round
You'll hear the same old line

You got a thousand boys
You say you need 'em
You take what's good for you
And I'll take my freedom

'Cause lately it's been so hard
I've been make ends meet
And honey, your head's a one way street
And I gotta go the other way
(heh, heh, heh)

I thought I knew her
My cagey lady
How come my sunshine's was so damn shady
She'll say she love to talk
A conversation
But I'm the one who makes my situation

This one way city
That I thought I knew
It's such a pity, honey that's it for you

'Cause lately it's been so hard
I've been make ends meet
And honey, your head's a one way street
And I gotta go the other way

There's nothing over here
I never showed you
I made it pretty clear I'm glad to know you

You know your brother Spike
He's on the level
But you always lookin' like you're mad at the devil

Don't say I cop a 'tude
It's all forgotten
It's just you're much too rude your fruits are rotten

You know I work so hard to keep it alive
Now all I hear from you
Is nothing but jive

'Cause Lately it's been so hard
Now to make ends meet
And honey, your head's a one way street
And I'm goin' on the other way
Yes I do!

And lately it's been so hard
To make ends meet
And honey, your head's a one way street
And I really been feelin' like I could be movin' on

Your head's like a one way street
You're foolin' everybody you meet
I said, your head's like a one way street
You're foolin' everybody but me
I said, your head's like a one way street
You're foolin' everybody you meet
I said, your head's like a one way street
You're foolin' everybody but me...
You got to get yourself back on your feet


On The Road Again
(Unknown)

Yeah, woke up one morning I'm a ram up for walls
Something told me baby you can have it all
Jump through my window look my life in the den
Look out pretty mama I'm on the road again

I'm on the road again and you can do what you want
I'm on the road again and you can do what you want
Look out pretty mama I'm on the road again

Went to the door but the door was locked
Jump through the window and believe me or not
She hadn't even put my dinner into the pot

I'm on the road again and you can do what you want
I'm on the road again and you can do what you want
Look out pretty mama I'm on the road again

Look out pretty mama I'm on the road again
Unh! ah!


Mama Kin
(Tyler)

It ain't easy, livin' like a gypsy
Tell ya honey how I feel
I've been dreamin', floatin' down the stream and
Losin' touch with all that's real
Whole earth lover, keepin' under cover
Never knowin' where ya been
You've been fadin', always out paradin'
Keep in touch with mama kin

Well you've always got your tail on the wag
Shootin' fire from your mouth just like a dragon
You act like a perpetual drag
You better check it out
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon

It ain't easy, livin' like ya wanna
It's so hard to find peace of mind (yes it is)
The way I see it you got to say shit
But don't forget to drop me a line

Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for your dad is just a drag
You still stuff your mouth with them beans *
You better check it out
Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon

Keep in touch with mama kin
Tell her where you've gone and bee
Livin' out your fantasy
Sleepin' late and smokin' tea


Same Old Song And Dance
(Tyler/Perry)

Get yourself cooler, lay yourself low
Coincidental murder, with nothing to show
With the judge, constipation will go to his head
And his wife's aggravation, you're soon enough dead

It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend
It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

Gotcha with the cocaine they found with your gun
No smoothy face laywer to getcha undone
Say love ain't the same on the south side of town
You could look, but you ain't gonna find it around

It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend
It's the same old story, same old story
Same old song and dance

Fate comes a-knockin', doors start lockin'
Your old time connection, change your direction
Ain't gonna change it, can't rearrange it
Can't stand the pain when it's all the same to you, my friend

When you're low down and dirty, from walkin' the street
With your old hurdy-gurdy, no one to meet
Say love ain't the same, on the south side of town
You could look, but you ain't gonna find it around


Train Kept A Rollin'
(T. Bradshaw, L. Mann, H. Kay)
Well, on a train, I met a dame,
She rather handsome, we kind looked the same
She was pretty, from New York City
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
With a "heave!", and a "ho!"
But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

Well, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

Well, on a train, I met a dame, She was pretty, from New York Cit
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,

But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long

But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

Well, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her

Well, we made a stop in Albequerque
She must'a thought I was a real cool jerk
Got off the train, and put her hands up
Lookin' so good I couldn't let her go
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her


Seasons Of Wither
(Tyler)

Blues hearted lady, sleepy was she
Love for the devil brought her to me
Seasons of a thousand drawn to her sin
Seasons of wither holdin' me in

Oooh woe is me, I feel so badly for you
Oooh woe is me, I feel so sadly for you in time
Bound to lose your mind
Live on borrowed time
Take the wind right out of your sail

Fireflies dance in the heat of
Hound dogs that bay at the moon
My ship leaves in the midnight
Can't say I'll be back too soon

They awaken, far far away
Heat of my candle show me the way
Seasons of a thousand drawn to her sin
Seasons of wither holdin' me in

Oooh woe is me, I feel so badly for you
Oooh woe is me, I feel so sadly for you in time
Bound to lose your mind
Live on borrowed time
Take the wind right out of your sail


Write Me
(Tyler)

Write me a letter
Write me a letter
Write it today
I'm goin' away

Well I've been away forever
Suicide's crossin' my mind
But I'll never get so far behind
I said, the ways of the night are evil
Without that lord of day
But I'll never get so far away

I said write me
Write me
Write me

Well there's nothin' I can see that'd ever make me want to be without her
She good, she good to me
Said there's no way to explain the kind of feeling that you get out in the
She good, she good to me
She good, she good to me
I love her
Well I've been so many places
Hidin' from the wind and the rain
But you could write me a letter
For to save me from a-goin' insane


Dream On
(Tyler)

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dust to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

Yeah, I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Half my life's in books' written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

Dream on, dream on, dream on,
Dream yourself a dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
And dream until your dream comes true

Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on
Dream on


Pandora's Box
(Tyler/Kramer)

When I'm in heat and someone gets a notion
I jump to my feet, I hoof it to the ocean
We hit a beach where no one give a hoot
Nobody never ever wears a suit
The ladies there, they look so proud
That's cause they know that their well endowed

I ain't much on Fannie's conversation
Or care to much about her operation
But every time Pandora come my way
I get high, can't explain the sensation
To get it on I got to watch what I say
Or I'll catch hell from the women's liberation

Sweet Pandora
Godlike aura
Smellin' like a flora
Open up your door-a for me
Sweet Pandora
Mama crack a smile for me
Just for me
Now I ain't what you'd call a city slicker
Or claim to fame to be a slitty licker


Rattlesnake Shake
(Griffith/Gilmore)

Well, if you wanna rock
I got to be your rockin' horse
If you want to roll
Lord, I could roll you right out the door, yes I could
We'll shake the world, yeah
When it's time to crash
But when I get home tonight
Lord, I guess I got to shake myself
Lookie here, you need some lovin'
You must have the blues
You fucked your mind baby
It's a good thing to do

Now do the shake
The rattlesnake shake
Now do the shake
Yes, chuck away 'dem blues
Chuck dem blues

You need some lovin', you must have the blues
You fucked your mind baby
It's a good thing to do

Do the shake, oh
The rattlesnake shake
Now do the shake, yeah
Chuck away, chuck away
chuck, chuck, chuck, chuck yakakakaw


Walkin' The Dog
(Thomas)
Mary Mac, dressed in black
Silver buttons up and down her back
I know, 'cause I love her so
She broke a needle, now she can't sew

Walkin' the dog
I'm just a-walkin' your dog
Well if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog

Ask your mama for fifteen cents
To see the elephant jump the fence
It jumped so high, it touched the sky
Didn't come back till the fourth of July

Walkin' the dog
I'm just a-walkin' your dog
Well if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog

Mary mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow
Well well, silver bells, and little bitty bitty white shells
Pretty maids all in a row


Lord Of The Thighs
(Tyler)

Down to who knows who, just to socialize
I'm waiting for my girls, when you call my eyes
You got no way to make a man honey,
You got to understand
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs

Well, well, Lordie my God,
What do we got here?
She's flashin' 'cross the floor,
Make it perfectly clear
You're the bait, and you're the hook,
Someone 'bound to take a look
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.

You must of come here to find it,
You've got the look in your eyes
Although you really don't mind it
I am the Lord of your Thighs!

You must of come here to find it baby,
You've got the look in your eyes
Although you really don't mind it
I am the Lord of your Thighs!
