Southern Exposure

There's one thing I'd like to say
we got it good in the USA
were doing what we want and that's not bad
It goes back for many years
when all kinds of people with religious fears
sailed for a land that was so far away
They didn't care what they went through
they paid the price for me and you
and now were living free in the USA

I like it here in America I'm living free in America
I like it here in America I'm living free in America
In America

We have got the freedom of speech
we can go anywhere if we want to teach
it's guaranteed in the constitution
we have got the right to vote
to say who we want and who we don't
it's up to us when we go to the poles

If you want to go to school and study the stars
you can do that or learn about cars
it's up to you at the institutions

Chorus

I can cruse the world wide web
surf the net until I've filled my head
it's all up to you in the USA
I can live in the east or west
in the north or south where I like it best
any place is fine in the USA

If you want to go into business
you can work for yourself
or if you like you can work for someone else
you can work for anyone anyone you want at all
living here is fine in the USA

Chorus

My country its of thee sweet land of liberty
You and me babe Hey hey hey In the USA

Call My Baby

Hey big spender, have you been going 'cross town
Hey there, baby, have you been running around
You're in such a hurry say you can't be late
and when you're supposed to meet me you break the date

Well I'm .... I'm not the waiting kind
I'm ............... I'm not the waiting kind

You politicians I'm tired of waiting my time
And all you fat cats I'm tired of waiting in your line
Well I hate to hassle and put you uptight
But I just can't sit and wait for you to get it right

I'm ............... I'm not the waiting kind
I'm ............... I'm not the waiting kind
No no no No no no I'm not the waiting kind

Solo

No no no No no no I'm not the waiting kind

Hey Mr. Tax Man, you got me working overtime
You promised changes and I ain't seen a dime
Well I won't go to welfare, not the unemployment line
I'm gonna take some action
I'm not the waiting kind

I'm ............... I'm not the waiting kind
I'm ............... I'm not the waiting kind
No no no No no no
I'm not the waiting kind

Bad Day

I spoke with God almighty
when I saw your face it came to me
afraid I tried to walk away
I was put into a place before thee

Queen of Sheba dance for me
Queen of Sheba you are so Ire

I was lost in a foreign land
raising hell playing in a rocking band
hopelessly living, living inside of my head
until you love me
come and love me
love me once again

Queen of Sheba dance for me
Queen of Sheba you are so ire
Ocean bound you came to me
Queen of Sheba dance for me

Queen of Sheba
Queen of Sheba dance with me all night
Queen of Sheba dance with me dance in the moonlight
Queen of Sheba dance with me
dance with me all night long
all night long

Solo

I returned to the space we created
when your loving warmth filled my bed
hopelessly living inside my head
until you love me come and love me
love me once again

Queen of Sheba dance for me
Queen of Sheba you are so ire
Ocean bound you came to me
Queen of Sheba dance for me
Queen of Sheba

Mean Old World

A look of love puts a smile right on me
But mostly love has brought me down on my knees
I feel my heart is ready now to receive
So if you take this gift of love You must believe in me
I don't want to fake a love that ain't there
I don't play around with love you see
If it's love it doesn't need the strings
That's how I want our love to be

I look at some who have played with love and what it cost
Some have won who have played with love, and some have lost
I feel my heart is ready now to receive
So if you take this gift of love you must believe in me

I don't want to fake a love that ain't there
I don't play around with love you see
If it's love it doesn't need the strings
That's how I want our love to be

I've got to try to find a love now I see
That if I want a special love it's up to me
I feel my heart is ready now to receive
So if you take this gift of love you must believe in me

I don't want to fake a love that ain't there
I don't play around with love you see
If it's love it doesn't need the strings
That's how want our love to be

California Baby

When the rain starts falling down
I hear the thunder when the lightning strikes the ground
It stirs those memories deep inside of me
I'm hungry for your love, baby can't you see?

I need you
I want you by my side
I need you
To keep me satisfied

I'd love you in the morning and I'd love you late at night
You look so good to me it puts my rocket ship in flight
And when I see you standing there in the morning light
I feel like a natural man with a loving appetite

For you, tonight, all night I feel like making love
To you, all right, tonight I feel like making love

And if the fire should get too low
We'll snuggle up real close and start the fire below
It's getting near the morning, how long can love go on
The way you rock & roll me keeps me going till the break of dawn

I need you
I want you by my side
I need you
To keep me satisfied

When the rain starts falling down
I hear the thunder when the lightning strikes the ground
It stirs those memories deep inside of me
I'm hungry for your love, baby can't you see?

I need you
I want you by my side
I need you
To keep me satisfied
I need you every day and every night
I need you - you make me come alive
Tonight, all right, all night, I feel like making love

Roll On Katy

Well I feel like dying 'cause I had to chose
And I feel like crying 'cause its so hard to lose
Someone who is dear to you
Yes its hard to lose again

Rocks are my pillow and the cold, cold ground is my bed
Don't you leave my body unless you leave my head
Cause its so very hard, yes its hard to lose again

It's hard to lose Hard to lose
Hard to lose Hard to lose
It's so very hard Yes it's hard to lose again

Solo

It's hard to lose Hard to lose
Hard to lose Hard to lose
It's so very hard Yes it's hard to lose again

Take Me To The Country

Red Sunglasses
that's where I want to be
back on the farm in Goose Creek Tennessee
the air is so clean
and the waters right for drinking
blueberries grown along the path
just right for thinking
so take me to the country
that's where I want to be
out on the farm in Goose Creek Tennessee

I'll take the plow
and turn the soil for seeding
the crops will be grown
in the grass that I 'm weeding
the work is so hard
my hands are gonna blister
In the cotton fields where
I'm working with your sister
so take me to the country
that's where I want to be
soothing memories are waiting for me

Well urban life can be quite appealing
But take me to the country for that laid back feeling
Well my grandma's rocking out in her rocking chair
I can smell the bacon filling up the air

Solo

Well urban life

Chorus

Skid Row Blues

Rollin Down The River

I'm rolling down the river
on a big wide boat
this boats barely wide enough to
float my worries down stream
float my worries down stream
everybody knows how good it feels
to be rolling down stream

I look over yonder
there's a big white post
a billy goat is tied up there
with a great big rope
as we float down stream
as we float down the river
everybody knows how good it feels
to be rolling down stream

Now your mother calls the children
the children's run and hide
beneath the willow tree out at the
edge of the line
as roll down stream
as we roll on down stream
everybody knows how good it feels
to be rolling down stream

Solo

Yea now look out here
Allright ...
Now the big wheel turns
the little wheel spins round and round
and the stack blows black smoke
as we roll on down the river
as we roll on down the stream

Now the banjo player's playing
and the women their open dress
on the upper deck there'll be big fancy hats
as we float on down this stream
as we roll on down the river
everybody knowing how good it feels
to be rolling down stream

I'm rolling down the river on a big wide boat
the boats barely wide enough to
float my worries down stream
float my worries down stream
everybody knows how good it feels
to be rolling down stream
