book of songs 4 by Te'Kannon

book of songs Volume 4 e-book edition by

Dear Reader, ! This is volume 4, the last volume of the ʻbook of songsʼ e-book series. Volume 4 is forty-six songs that have come from events I have lived and experienced on the musical road and from life in general. As a singer /songwriter, I have written songs about many subjects, including losing in love or finding yourself or being affected by a political event like even war, for example. Some of the songs are about people who lose in life or who live exceptional lives. Life is hard for many people. Itʼs a challenge for all of us. But writing songs and singing is a gift. Iʼm very fortunate to have been able to get a lot of my thoughts and feelings put down in words and later to have been able to sing my songs to people in folk clubs and bars and music venues in different countries. And I hope I can continue to do it for the rest of my life. ! Thank you for your interest in this e-book and I hope you find enjoyment in reading the poetry of these songs. As an artist, I have drawings and paintings in other ebooks. If you would like to see them please visit the publishing site ISSUU.COM. and type in the name te-kann-on. ! Additionally, you will find art work and some of the songs from the four volumes of ʻbook of songsʼ recorded in the music section of my website: www.te-kann-on.com

Take It In With Your Eyes

The sun’s shining, it’s hard defining The things I feel inside about you Your hair’s golden There’s something nice about your eyes,..

And when we’re walkin’, the river starts talkin‘ The birds in the air seem to know what I feel They start singing While they’re winging their way to go home,..

When we’re together, maybe stormy weather Or sunny days and the sky so blue ‘Cause what I’m thinking No-one else could ever do,..

And then you tell me you want to hold me And make me laugh until I cry Oh sweet darlin‘ You’re the one of my life,..

I know it’s been said before But it’s time to say it again,..

I can’t fly away with them I can only say right or wrong,..

Take it in with your eyes And see the darkness turning bright See your candle in the night Burning through the morning sky,..

Take it in with your eyes,..

Talk About A Mover

This girl keeps comin’ round showin’ me her stuff

I don’t know why, but with her I can’t get enough Women drive me crazy and this time I’ve got it bad Ain’t nothin’ but a fool for love,.. Talk about a mover, oh yes she really is Ain’t nothin’ but a fool for love,..

She knows all the guys, they’d like to be her man Why she wants me I’ll never understand Here she comes again, no stoppin’ me this time Ain’t nothin’ but a fool for love,.. Talk about a mover,..

Why is love such a tender trap ? This girl took my heart and she won’t give it back Now I love her more than the stars above Ain’t nothin’ but a fool for love,..

One day she’ll be mine or the other way around But I could give a damn the way she carries on Looks like I’m hooked again, why does it feel so good ? Ain’t nothin’ but a fool for love,..

When she’s close to me I feel so good inside And when I kiss her I feel the whole world turn on fire She’s the only girl I know Who makes me want to love her so,..

Talk about a mover,..

Tell A Lie

Every time I close my eyes

I see you in disguise You may think that I don’t see The tears in your eyes, so please,..

Looking at the other girls Has been something I know Can’t help myself sometimes It doesn’t help it though,..

No, I won’t tell a lie No, I really, really won’t tell a lie,..

Tell me now what’s in your heart Do you want to be with me ? There’s no sense in going on If you don’t agree, so please,..

Every man needs a woman there To be his everything If you could understand You’re everything to me,..

Don’t tell a lie Please don’t tell a lie,..

I never meant to hurt you To make you cry I’ll never desert you I just want you mine,..

Don’t tell a lie,… Please don’t tell a lie,..

And I won’t tell a lie I really, really won’t tell a lie,..

Tell It To Me

Well I know what you’ll say Because I hear you every day But tell me something darlin‘ ‘Cause I’m feeling blue, so blue,..

When we’re out on a date And it’s getting kind of late I need to hear you tell me Our love is true, so true,..

Don’t you know what I mean ? About the way things have been We used to be so happy And now we’re blue,..

I remember when you’d say Those sweet words every day I need to hear you tell me Our love is true,..

Tell it to me, so I can go and shout it Write it to me, so I can read about it Give it to me, so I can say I love you, too,..

Tennesse

On through the hills and down by the bay Watching the stars and the night fade away Holding our ears while the truckers roll by It’s then that you hear it in the bright moon-lit sky,..

Banjo in the breeze, an October’s day From Nashville to Memphis you can hear a fiddle play And the cattle and horses on the great open plains Brings you to tears what the simple life brings,..

Oh, woman so true All of our lovin‘ It’s comin’ through,..

Sometimes it’s hard, the road that we’ve chosen Pockets are bare and the children we’re scoldin‘ But up on ahead in the valley below You’ll see the sunshine and know you’re at home,.. (singin’)

Sweet, sweet Tennessee Wild as the mountains Your children so free,..

That Tennessee life Runnin’ through my veins,..

That Tennessee life,..

Terri

Terri Lady of a dream On a lake thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clear No-one around,..

Terri And you werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mine I kissed you once Then a thousand times,..

We made love While the moon was round,..

It was summer Hot and green Romance was near Before, unseen

We made love While the moon was round,..

Your reflection on the water Through the tears was mine I let you go never knowing Why we loved for just one time,..

That’s The Way I Am

Try to tell this girl of mine To stay low and walk the line But she likes to party all the time,..

She says she likes wine I say, what about this heart of mine ? But all she says is that’s the way I am,..

She gets me runnin’, she gets me mad She gets me goin’, I’ll never understand,..

Ask her to be with me Together make our destiny But she likes to party all the time,..

She laughs when I say it hurts To see her being such a flirt But all she says is that’s the way I am,..

Say to her, give me a sign Tell me if you’ll be mine But she likes to party all the time,..

She knows I love her so But things can’t change with her I know All she says is that’s the way I am,..

She’s the kind of girl who likes to rip it up Just the one for me Trouble is she likes to party down The way I used to do,..

What do I do to get her love ? What do I do ? She’s all I’m thinking of,..

The Cure

Someone, somebody got the cure ‘Cause if I don’t find it I’m gonna die for sure,..

Doctor, doctor, this ain’t no cold If I don’t get my medicine I swear I’ll die before I’m old,..

Someone, somebody got the cure ‘Cause if I don’t find my baby I’m gonna die for sure,..

Doctor, doctor, my head’s in a spin My eyes are crossed Here it comes again,..

Oh, here’s that woman

I think I know what’s ailing me What’s making me lame Take me to the station My baby’s comin’ on the midnight train,..

It’s in your heart and soul That’s got to be the cure Hang on to your baby It’s the only thing you got for sure,..

Oh, here’s that woman Don’t she look fine ? She’s got me on the mend On the mend this time,..

Got money, got soul Everything to live for But I’m losing control,..

The Man of Steel

When you’re falling down Breaking all your bones You’ll never walk again, you’re so all alone,..

Once you were in the skies Raised our hopes so high You were the man of steel,..

It’s so hard to say You’ve got to fight today To get back on top and make your way,..

There’s nothing but the end Or be your own best friend You were the man of steel,..

You’re a superman to me You’re a superman to me You’re a superman to me

How I’d like to be Someone just like you You make us all believe our dreams can come true,..

And now we all can see That you will always be The man of steel,..

You’re a superman to me,..

And now you’ve to to fight so hard To fly again so free,..

Oh, you really made us see Oh, what we can be,..

The Westward Wind

O’ the westward wind Blew me home again And I feel so fine I see my family and friends,..

Yeah, the westward wind In the sky again Far above the fields Country folk and kin,..

O’ the westward wind Be your only friend Blowin’ all the way Till your dyin’ day,..

Take me down on the Bayou One more time Darlin’, I’m comin‘ home Just play me some banjo all night long,..

Yeah, the westward wind Blew me home again To the girl I know Up round the bend,..

Say bye to the low roads One more time Darlin‘, I’m comin‘ home It’s hi to the high way,..

So many voices on the wind Yours and mine will come again Have you ever wondered why The fallin’ rain comes from the sky ?..

There’s A Time For You

Deep in the tunnels of our mind What do you find ? Are you what you say ?..

They say believing in yourself Is the only way To live the day,..

In the shadows of your soul Have you lost control Of who you are ?..

Time’s a friend to everyone Just ask the sun And you will see,..

‘Cause it keeps right on burnin’, Like you it’s always learning New ways to carry on,..

Who can say what is love ? It comes from above I’ve heard them say,..

There’s a reason for it all The world’s a mystery Maybe it was meant to be,..

I’m sure they told you Yes, I’m sure they told you Just wish they’d told me that before,..

There’s a time There’s a time for you,..

Have you not discovered All the complications Are just your fantasies no more ?..

There’s My Gal

There’s times when I’m restless Not knowing what to do Days forlorn and lonely But the best ones are with you,..

Out on the farm where Grandpa lives The wind it blows so cold Cattle and horses running wild Children playing in the yard,..

And I never knew the good life Till I walked a country road There may be bright lights in the city But country livin’s my gold,..

People say we’re crazy Out livin’ like we do But the rolling hills and God’s green Earth And I’ve got myself a home,..

And I never knew a woman,..

And I never knew a woman Could be all a man would need But when I feel your arms around me There’s nothing more I need to see,..

There’s my gal, there’s my darlin‘ Comin’ round the ridge A country gal with all the trimmin’s What more could I wish ? I say What more could I wish ?..

There’s my gal, there’s my darlin‘,..

There’s Nobody

I got a whiskey smile And it ain’t no joke I’ve been ‘round the world I’ve been rich and and broke,..

I kinda made mess Out ‘a livin’ with you I know I drank too much And made you blue,..

But a man can change and turn the page And I know I can, ‘cause you’re there babe,..

I know it’s hard To try again But my love for you Has no end,..

But there’s nothing that makes me feel Nothing in the world like you to make it real,..

Now I take my time And try to understand If you’re the kind of woman For this kind of man Or if I’m dreaming And it’ll never be ‘Cause you’re the only one I want for me,..

‘Cause there’s nobody that could ever do No, there’s nobody in the world like you,..

They’ll Never Stop Us

You’re such a mystery to me I turn my head and look around What do I see ?..

All the world has changed since my eyes fell on you I turn in circles, sing a tune What can this be ?..

Some would say I’ve found the girl I’m looking for Yeah, she’s got everything A man would want and more,..

I only know there’s fire in my heart for you And I’d do anything Just to be with you,..

This time the winds of change have smiled on my ways And brought you in my life To chase my blues away,..

Who can say where we’ll be in the years ahead or more ? I just want you close to me That’s what my love’s for,..

They’ll never stop us girl,..

They’ll never stop us girl From being true They’ll never stop me From loving you,..

In your secret garden Where a part of you hides away Remember what they tell you Live for today,..

This ‘Ole Life

This ‘ole life Sure gets me down Yeah, this ‘ole life It’s like some sad, sad song,..

Yeah this ‘ole life can Sure all a mess Drinkin‘ all night Just want some tenderness,..

It’s been so long since I’ve seen a friend Shakin‘ hands with the end I’m singin’ the blues Ah, what’s the use ?..

Got troubles on the doorstep Got troubles in my soul Yeah, this ‘ole life Gives me the blues that’s all,..

It’s been so long since things went right,..

Seems all I do is try, try, try,..

Nothin’ wants to work out right My woman’s out every night On the town Bringin’ me down,..

Seems all I do is try, try, try I don’t know why it’s such A hard, hard life On me, oh on me,...

Ticket

I took a walk it was the other day I bought a ticket to go far away,..

I’m feeling lonely, I’m feeling lonely your way,..

Now friends are friends as far as I can see But when you went for my best friend over me,..

I knew it was over, knew I had to set you free,..

You can’t make a fool of me and make it pay,..

Life’s a joke when you’re on easy street But ain’t nobody gonna walk on my feet,..

Just once, just once and then I’m gone,..

You can tell me what you want to But I won’t stay,..

You had me goin’ most every day You had me goin’ but it’s all gone away,..

You were my woman most every day You were my woman but it’s all gone away,..

Gonna roll me a smoke and remember your smile I guess I always knew you’d leave me in style,..

You can’t make a fool of me and make it pay,..

Dancing to the music Dancing, you never lose it,..

Driving to the end of time Driving into your mind,..

People get ready It’s time to party down People get ready It’s time to party down let’s go,..

In this world there’s so much light There’s so much magic all a-round,…

Shake it now, close your eyes Get it hot and let it ride Shake it now, close your eyes Makes you feel so good inside,..

Can you feel it now ? Get down and let it roll In your heart and soul Don’t be afraid to lose control,..

Time To Sing The Blues

When you’re feelin’ so bad Feelin’ so bad Feelin’ so bad Since you lost your girl And she left you for someone new,..

You got a hole in my heart Got a hole in my heart Got a hole in my heart And it won’t go away Till you come back to stay,..

It’s a sad, sad world It’s a sad, sad world It’s a sad, sad world Sometimes it feels like I’ll never win It’s so hard to start all over again,..

But you can’t let yourself fall You can’t let yourself fall You can’t let yourself fall ‘Cause if you do you only hurt yourself And then you lose it all,..

You got to do what you got to do Sounds so easy but it’s true Nobody else can make your life worth while It’s down to you to turn the dials,..

You got to do what you got to do,..

Tonight

Rock n’ Roll on the radio, turned way up loud Rollin’ around in my custom ride I’ve got a woman on my mind Flashin’ lights are following me I’m going too fast I know ‘Cause I just can’t wait to see a woman that I know,..

City lights against the night The moon’s sailin’ ‘cross the sky I’m cruisin’ through my life I don’t have to tell you why Oh, she’s such a prize, I’ll never let her go No, nothing in this world could change me, no,..

Oh and she’s the kind of girl Who loves me all night long She’s the one that’s just for me Yeah, just for me it’s true,..

My favorite song just played again It makes me think of her She’s got eyes that come alive When we’re out late at night I hope tomorrow never comes ‘Cause when she’s close to me I know the best things in life are always free,..

Oh and she’s the kind of girl,..

‘Cause tonight, all alone We’ll be where the stars are bright Tonight, with my lovely one,..

‘Cause tonight,

Tonight I’m Gonna See My Baby

There’s a bird singing this morning And I see the sun coming up I think I’ll walk down to the café And get a coffee to wake me up,..

‘Cause tonight I’m gonna see my baby,..

Now one day I think I’ll marry her And find a place and settle down Maybe take her to the big city Get away from this crazy town,..

‘Cause tonight I’m gonna see my baby,..

It’s been one week too long for me,..

Why does it always seem to be That the one you want’s so hard to find ? You live your life like an endless dream Till she’s part of your life and times,..

It’s been one week too long for me And she’s the prettiest girl in town,..

Don’t be gettin’ me wrong I only know one thing Every time I see that woman My heart begins to sing,..

And tonight I’m gonna see my baby,..

Traveller

Blue bird How high can you fly ? Blue bird When will you take to the sky ?..

Yes, I’m a passenger On this ship we call our own Yes, I’m a traveler And I bring tomorrow’s song,..

Tell me my father What have we done?.. Tell me my father When will the Earth be one ?

He was a traveller Wasn’t here for very long He was a traveler Some say the native son,..

Sent from his father To spread the word of love Sent from his father From the universe above,..

You make me wonder why bird-y Things go round and round for you You make me wonder why bird-y The sky above is always blue,..

Long, long journey To the light of your soul,..

Trolley bus won’t come Please be a friend of mine Trolley bus won’t come Got to see my Caroline,..

And we’ll see the sun go down Rolling all over on A trolley bus ride,..

Memories, summer breeze Birds in the trees Singing my blues away,..

Serenading street lights Till I find a ride And get there in style,..

I don’t have a Cadillac ‘Cause I like it way back on A trolley bus ride,..

Trouble Comes, Trouble Goes

Feeling kind of lonesome Lonely and blue Thinking of how I miss you Wondering if you miss me, too,..

No more time for talkin‘ That’s all for dreamin’ on You left me for someone else Now it’s my turn for movin’ on,..

Hold on help is coming That’s what the old folks say You never get to desperation If you don’t look back that way,..

I guess I’m no good at poker I can never bluff my way But I wanted to tell you What my heart would like to say,..

Love comes in the strangest ways And I know you’ll never fade away,..

Trouble comes, trouble goes Got no troubles, just these woes Where do you go From the best you’ve ever had ? I swear this time I’m in a fix, oh so bad,..

Love comes in the strangest ways And I know you’ll never fade away,..

Trouble comes, trouble goes,..

Truth & Lies

Truth and lies, television politicians

Poor disguise, ‘cause everybody knows the score My oh my, everybody’s a magician You and I, what are they taking us for ?..

Hungry eyes on too many children of the planet No-one can find a way to get them all some food Still I try to think about it and not forget it You and I can help ‘em if we really want to try,..

There’s one more part to the play,..

Live your life, they want to tell you how to do it Lose your mind if you give in to what you hear It’s no life if your dreams are in their pockets Go your own way, oh yeah, ‘cause there’s nothin’ to fear,..

There’s one more part to the play Read your lines and walk this way Brothers and sisters of today,..

No, no, never believe your time is through No, no never believe in anyone but you ‘Cause deep in the heart of the falling sun We can see tomorrow And find the way to get things done,..

There’s one more part to the play,..

No, no, never believe your time is through,..

Try To Run, Try To Hide

Try to run, try to hide Did you tell a little white lie ? Try to run, try to hide Let me know what you decide,..

No-one knows why the water flows But the rivers runnin’ dry,..

Try to run, try to hide Nowhere to go but deep inside Try to run, try to hide The rainbow’s fading in the sky,..

You want to live by the light of day But now you’ve got to pay,..

Try to run, try to hide It’s us and them to draw the line Try to run, try to hide Can we save the Earth on time ?

No-one knows why the water flows But the rivers runnin’ dry,..

Rainwater’s filling up my boots Fresh water on my soul Everywhere the guns they shoot Nearby the bell will toll,..

Twenty First Century Man Delaware Lady

Twenty first century man and counting F C Dm Looking on the next ten thousand years Where are we going, where do we come from ? When do we get past the fear ?..

You’ve got more people, more mouths to feed Spaceships flying to the galaxies We can make a man from genetic code And keep everybody young, never grow old,..

What do we say, how do we stop it ?..

High time to change it all,..

What do we say, how do we stop it ?.. Computer games to reality All the kids want to live forever Seems like we’ve gone too far to me,..

It’s so pretty All the glitter and the gold The world’s a city Nothing much anymore We’ve got to break free And open the door We’ve got to believe There’s something more,..

There’s a new god and he’s made of money So get as much as you can Give him a call, he’s kind of funny Twenty first century man,..

Under Your Spell

Try not to think of it When I’m all alone There were those times you see When I didn’t know My eyes were looking Far beyond the land of dreams,..

And when I do think of it It’s a wonder how we made it through We held on to something Stronger than the truth More than all those coins could buy Call it love till the day you die,..

I’ve read all the books you see Even some poetry Climbed a mountain To find the other side But there’s nothing I can do Unless it all begins with you,..

Under your spell When I’m walkin‘,..

Under your spell When I’m walkin‘ Thinkin‘ of you Under your spell Anytime at all As sure as there’s a God above He must of sent me your sweet love,..

Under your spell Through heaven and hell I’m under your spell,...

Until The End Of Time

Am I dreaming, does it really mean That you are in my life forever like it seems ? Every day I wake and look into your eyes I see reflections of us shining so bright,..

Could it really be, do you feel it to ? It’s just so beautiful like flowers in spring So I must agree, these days are golden Tell it to me now that you and I are forever,..

Walking down the road whistlin’ this tune Holding you close to me under the moon What’s it all about ? No one can say I’ve got a feeling for you that won’t go away,...

Tell it to me now,..

Take you by the hand, closer to me now Just let me look into your eyes so enchanting Got to tell it twice, you’re just so nice Can’t we go on like this ? Say it’s forever,..

Tell it to me now,..

Tell it to me now Over and over That you are mine Until the end of time,..

Higher than I’ve ever been In my heart you’re my best friend My lover, my lady,..

Higher than I’ve ever been,..

Wanderer

I‘ve been so long from home

That home would be somewhere new There are times when I remember Laughin’ the whole day through,..

Doing all kinds of jobs and things Like an actor in a role All I know is I’ll never stop Being true to my soul,..

I’ve lived danger and romance To be who I’ve got to be A man of this world and searching For tales of the unseen,..

Many are the wrongs I’ve done But you can’t change the times you’ve lived You gotta move past where you once stood And give what you can give,..

Wanderer, oh wanderer I’ll cross the world till I’m old ‘Cause nothing will replace the thrill Of going for the gold,..

Wanderer, oh wanderer They’ll call me when I’m gone I’ll never know their faces They’ll only know my song,..

Was the Mountain Song

Comon’ girl, come along with me I’m gonna show you Something you can’t see But you can feel it in the trees,..

Hear the branches whisper Softly singing in the darkness The mountain song tonight,..

I don’t know what makes the world Go round and round for you and me But some things are meant to be There is no death of freedom,..

For which free men would fight and die It’s only the breath of madmen Who try to stop the freedom cry,..

Mountain song, mountain song Everybody gonna sing it all night long And dance the dance of fantasy and Live the dreams of children,..

Jesus Christ was a light in one And he came to us as the holy son To change the world forever His gift was the word of love,..

Love to give to everyone And then he died so we could see The world was made for you and me,..

Wasn’t Long Ago

Wasn’t long ago on an old TV show Poncho and Cisco, they caught the man Who robbed the gold,..

Hop-a-long Cassidy, the Lone Ranger and Tonto Buck Rogers, Superman Faster than a bullet you know,..

Wasn’t long ago, Tom Horn and Geronimo Apache nation, Sioux Indians saw Custer go,..

Radio to the picture show, they took us all there you know Box office, comic books, America’s mother lode,..

Wasn’t long ago,..

Symbols of the future Heroes of the past They sure knew how to make The good times last Turn the channel please To the good old past Sweet Jesus, well, he rode upon an ass,..

Symbols of the future Heroes of the past They sure knew how to make The good times last Turn the channel please Those golden moments, How they go away so fast,..

We’ll Get By

We’ll get by All the while With just we two And do it in style,..

We’ll get by ‘Cause we can fly Oh so high When we are one,..

No matter how, when, where or why,…

We’ll get by ‘Cause we’re so free And we can see We have each other,..

No matter how, when, where or why,…

We’ll get by In rainy days And live to see The sun shine our way,...

No matter how, when, where or why,…

Now I know it may seem That somehow we lost our dreams But we’ll get by you wait and see,..

No matter how, when, where or why,…

What Does A Man Tell A Woman ?

You’re the nicest I’ve met on this road of regrets I’ve lived many a night dreaming of you It’s just like they say, women are made that way A mystery every man wants to know,..

Yet your eyes are so free and your soul touches me Somewhere that’s never been touched Do I tell you these words from a searching man’s world Hoping you’ll see how I care ?..

Now I’m past my younger days when I lived for a way To be rich and do as I please I’m a bit tired of schemes, but I still fight for my dream Of a world where all men are free,..

But I’d do more than that if you’d accept me forever As I am to you now If you could see in my heart how much I love you Maybe you’d change your mind,..

Now what does a man tell a woman ? When does he let her know how he feels ? How does a man tell a woman That his heart is for her to steal ?..

It’s never too late to try try again Take a chance on being mine Let’s be what we want to be And see what happens this time,..

What I Am

I don’t like to see you hurting We tried and tried Things just ain’t workin‘ Like a message that can’t get through Words of love Can be so blue,..

If someone’s to blame, then I’m the loser I wish I could have been a whole lot truer Could I take this time To say I’m sorry ? We tried our best To make it our love story,..

But I’m just a man, follow my own plan Don’t try to tell me, no, how to live my own life You seem to think You know what’s best for me But like the endless sky above I need my liberty,..

You know girl I’ve got my pride And I’ve got to live my life happy till I die There ain’t no magic words To make me change my mind No-one can hold me back From doing what I gotta do,..

Darling don’t you see ? No-one’s comin’ down on me I’ve just got to be what I am Right or wrong, it’s my life,..

What’s Your Name ?

Hey, what’s your name And what’s that song you’re singing ? Is it so hard to see This time you’re really winning ?..

Yeah, that road’s been long And sometimes hard it’s true But you’re gonna make it there You’ll make it through,..

For so long you’ve been searching Livin’ high and low But now you’ve concentration And your time has come you know,..

Let me take you now To the land of dreams It’s a journey in your mind Where things aren’t what they seem,..

You’ll be singin’, you’ll be thinkin‘ This just can’t be true That all the love that you’ve been giving Has come back to you,..

When I Call Your Name

Every time that you walk by I’d like to come and say hello It’s just I’ve got this foolish pride I’m afraid you’ll tell me no When I look into your eyes All the words just come and go,..

Sometimes it’s best to take your time The best things just seem that way Still I look for a little sign Then I’d find the words to say Would you, would you be mine You’re all I think of night and day,..

What can I do ?..

Won’t you come and stop a while ? We could have a word or two You know you’ve got the cutest smile I’d like so much to talk to you Are you walking through my life Or am I getting through to you ?..

What can I do ? How can I say ? I’d do anything If I could only find a way,..

When I call your name Nothing seems the same You’re in my heart I want you and nobody else,..

When The Whistle Blows

Up around the bend

Someone said they heard The midnight train Comin’ back again Bringing peace and harmony For everyone, for you and me,..

When the whistle blows Everybody turns round to see ‘Cause they all know The train’s rollin’ down the tracks Bringing peace and harmony For all the world to see,..

Hear the whistle blow ? Sounds like a friend you know Never turnin‘ back It’s rollin‘ down the tracks Bringing peace and harmony Throughout the land for all to see,..

Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug Here it comes again Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug Comin’ round the bend,..

When You’re Hot

You might say

Any ‘ole day Take the money and run away But don’t stop No, don’t stop,..

Now you know I love you so But don’t be tellin’ me from Kokomo But don’t stop No, don’t stop,..

‘Cause everybody’s gonna Want some of your sweet lovin’,..

A millionaire He’s got no cares But you and I can make it anywhere But don’t stop No, don’t stop,..

Until they see You spent it all On little ‘ole me,..

Why ?

Why tell me why does it always have to be That a man will never see When the hangman finds the tree ? Every story runs the same, the rebel and the law Trouble is they all get caught or killed before the wall,..

Ride hombre ride, one train says it all With a million dollar haul And a bullet took your pa Raised on the back of a running horse headed for the pass Posse closin’ in again, this ride could be your last,..

Ride hombre ride,..

Never meant to be so bad, but the devil took your soul And a woman left you cold Could have loved her more than gold Time’s up on your destiny, the sun will soon appear They’ll give you fame and hang you high Above the roaring cheer,..

Ride hombre ride If they catch you they’ll put you in the ground,..

Lyin’ away in sleepless nights, campfire kindled low ‘Cause they’ll never let you know You’re an outlaw growing old Twenty one and two six guns and seen so many die They’ll cut you down and in the ground Before you blink an eye,..

There’s evil in those hills lord And rumbling below That hangin’ tree won’t find me They’d never let me go, I’m gonna ride, ride ‘Cause if they catch me They’ll cut me down to size,..

With You Girl

Out in Nevada many miles away I see me walkin’ those sunny days With you girl, yeah me and you girl,..

I’ve been looking up and all around Trying to see just what I found With you girl,..

Listen to the bells that chime and ring They’re playin’ a song that I want to sing With you girl,..

Out in New Orleans where the jazz men play I see me strolling the nights away With you girl,..me and you girl,..

You can call it crazy, put it down But love can make the world go round For you and me girl, you and me girl,..

So hear my message, hear my call Just want to be with you, that’s all Me and you girl, with you girl,..

Oh yeah, time will come when you will see That love can last forever Oh yeah, we’ll find a way to change the days So we can be together,..

Won’t You Tell Me ?

Won’t you tell me what you’re lookin’ for ? Won’t you tell me what you’re lookin’ for ? ‘Cause I’ll be knockin’ right upon your door,..

You know you really got me wanting you more Yeah, you really got me wanting you more And I’ll be knockin’ right upon your door,..

Lookin’ for love, lookin’ for love Down in me and you,..

So won’t you tell me what you’re lookin’ for ? Won’t you tell me what you’re lookin’ for ? ‘Cause I’ll be knockin’ right upon your door,..

Lookin’ for love, lookin’ for love Down in me and you,.

So won’t you tell me what you’re lookin’ for ?..

Lookin’ for love, lookin’ for love Down in me and you,..

Sometimes I get so sad inside ‘Cause I can’t find the way to get to you I go crazy tryin’ to understand What’s in your mind How do I get through ?..

(You see ) I’ve just got to find the way,..

You Can Get It

Let’s go where we were so happy Runnin’ by the river in our old blue jeans Gee Whiz kids are all so lazy Watchin’ on the TV for the latest thing,..

Sometimes it gets me to thinking What’s gonna happen when we’re gone ? Then I laugh and realize We ain’t going nowhere but together,..

Hey baby, what do you say ? We can always call it a day I ain’t no Bogart or Clark Gable Who cares anyway ?..

Blue sky looking so pretty Nothin’ like a walk on a summer’s day So nice when I think about you You make me feel so good that way,..

Let’s be what we want to Hell with what they say There’s only one way to do it Live it every day, live it every day,..

Getting’ older, no-one needs you Computer’s never been wrong All around us little soldiers Keepin’ good people down,..

(‘Cause) You can get it if you really want it,..

You Gotta Fight

In the times of King Arthur Many things were said to be And I think maybe They really could see,..

And in that rounded table fashion When knights and maidens were impassioned Something came for us to be And history makes it all so plain to see,..

That lonely river flows to the sea A bird can fly, a bat canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see They knew it all The same as we,..

In the times of King Arthur Had they not found it to be ? That one was strong When his heart was free,..

You never know until you try

You never know until you try What youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll make your life to be You gotta fight for what you believe,..

You got to find the way To where the angels play Got to find the way Like King Arthur would say You got to find the way To live your dream today You gotta fight, fight Fight for what you believe,..

You Won’t See Me Now

Every time I let you be

And try to see what you are I never know just what to say How to make you stay Close to me, so close to me,..

Every night in your dreams I’ll whisper things to let you know ‘Cause in my life there could never be One like you For a thousand years, a thousand years,..

Don’t you know I live for your smile ?..

But you won’t see me now You won’t see me now You won’t see me now Till you close your eyes And dream of us together,..

When you think it’s time to say This is the day for us to be Let me hear your heart speak Just for me What you feel inside, feel inside,..

They’ll never be another you The whole world through, someone like you So won’t you let me be the one To share your life All the days and nights ?..

Don’t you know I live for your smile ?..

You’re So Fine

I’d like to tell you what’s on my mind You won’t believe it, but it’s you this time I feel my heart beating with yours It keeps going faster, I want you more and more,..

I’m tired of waiting in the sun and rain Going through all this joy and pain You’re so different from anyone I’ve met You say what you mean and you’re a hundred percent,..

You’re so fine, girl,..

(Spoken) Still, in the night, when my eyes try to see Some kind of sign from above that maybe you’re for me So many times just darkness, darkness, but tranquility,..

You’re so fine, girl Want you mine, girl You’re so fine, girl Take me to your wonderland of love,..

No, there’s nothing love can’t do No, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you,..

Then deep within like some mystical experience I see a door fall into space and the light rushes in Then I know it’s you and I know I’ll find my way through,…

We’ve come so far, all this way Somehow we made it and now it’s time to say There’s no-one else who could make my day Together we’ll get through whatever comes our way,..

You’re so fine, girl,..
