Manuela Run
Dont look now, you better watch that sword thats hanging over you
Its a long hard road and they will spit you out
When they get through with you
Dont hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy youll soon be dead
Chorus:
You better run, run manuela-uela run
Theyre gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun
You better run, run manuela-uela run, manuela run
Theres no more time for living out your life, your sky is falling down
Dont close your eyes or make a wish on three
cause they will still be round
Dont hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy youll soon be dead
Chorus:
(instrumental break)
Dont hang your head, so the wise man said, or boy youll soon be dead
You better run, run manuela-uela run, you better run, run manuela-uela run
You better run, run manuela-uela run
(gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun)
You better run, run manuela-uela run, you better run, run manuela run
You better run, run manuela run
(gonna shoot you in the back with your own gun)
You better run, run manuela run

Dont Run Away
(tell me) does your head keep turning,
From the feelings churning,
Deep inside of you?
(tell me) when your mind is racing,
All the things youre chasing,
Worth your while, well?
(tell me) dont you ever question
Why youre always guessin
Reasons for your life?
(listen) theres no need to waver,
Long ago the savior,
Died...for you, so,
Dont run away,
Youre headed no where, (dont run away....)
Keep up the face,
Youre gonna go there, (keep up the face.)
Youll feel alone,
Who do you know there?
Please turn back now.
Dont run away,
He wants your heart now, (dont run away....)
Hear what I say,
And play it smart now, (what I say....)
Wise up today,
And give him all of your love....
(tell me) does the fear of losing
Keep your heart from choosing
Who has hold of you?
(tell me) have you felt the yearning,
Deep inside, a burning
Need for love, now?
(tell me) tell me, can you sense a fighting?
Hate is now igniting,
Fear of loving you.
(listen) listen, God is still here waiting;
Hell remove the hating
Part...of you, so,
Dont run away,
Youre headed no where, (dont run away....)
Keep up the face,
Youre gonna go there, (keep up the face.)
Youll feel alone,
Who do you know there?
Please turn back now.
Dont run away,
He wants your heart now, (dont run away....)
Hear what I say,
And play it smart now, (what I say....)
Wise up today,
And give him all of your love....
Dont run away,
Youre headed no where, (dont run away....)
Keep up the face,
Youre gonna go there, (keep up the face.)
Youll feel alone,
Who do you know there?
Please turn back now.
Dont run away,
He wants your heart now, (dont run away....)
Hear what I say,
And play it smart now, (what I say....)
Wise up today,
And give him all of your love....
Dont run away,
Youre headed no where, (dont run away....)
Keep up the face,
Youre gonna go there, (keep up the face.)
Youll feel alone,

But you dont buy it
I dont want to wake up
Alone in my head
Oh say that youll never go now
Dont go

Chorus I need a lot of you
I want a lot of you

And find the world

Dont Know Why
By bonnie bramlett and eric clapton
You say you want everything good for me,
But I know so well, I can tell when youre lying.
Making believe youre looking up to me,
And Im just sitting here, crying.
And I dont know why,
I dont know why,
I dont know why I dont care.
Youll go on back to him, hell take you in.
I know hes gonna love you, but I still want you back again,
cause baby youre part of me, its deep inside of you.
When hes done all he can, youll come running to your other man, oh yeah.
Chorus
I know you wont soon forget last night.
Your precious love was all over me, but its all right.
Go on and try again but you know nothings gonna change.
Thats the way its gonna be, oh yeah.

If You Be Wise
See her candle,
Waver in the window of her summer night.
Lying on the breeze,
She tries to fall asleep.
Flights of fancy,
Dancing through her memories like arabian nights.
He is riding on his wings of fire,
And flies away.
She can still hear him say.
If youll be wise,
If youll be smart,
Dont let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Dont let it start,
Youll think youre different from the rest.
Youll try to do your part,
Until he breaks your heart.
Lunch for the lonely,
Looking at picture postcards of someone elses scene.
Somehow they dont seem real,
The seas too green.
Somebody calls her,
Giving out information,
About the boy on the moon.
Suddenly its all too much,
To be told,
What she already knows.
If youll be wise,
If youll be smart,
Dont let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Dont let it start,
cause youve been told too many times.
(instrumental)
If youll be wise,
If youll be smart,
Dont let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Dont let it start,
cause youve been told too many times.
If youll be wise,
If youll be smart,
Dont let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Dont let it start,
cause when he comes and needs a friend,
Hell do it all again.
Better be smart,
Hes breakin your heart,
Find you another lover.
Better be wise,
And open your eyes,
This time.

All The Right Friends
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
I know you say
Maybe some day
I need never be alone
I know I say
Its the right way
But youll never be the one
Ive been walking alone
For a long long, long time
I dont wanna hang out now
With the folks that just dont mind
While you party
Youve been looking
But your searching never ends
Youve been saying
With the wrong crowd
Youve got all the right friends
(chorus 1)
Ive been walking alone
For a long, long time
I dont gotta hang out
With the friends that just arent mine
(chorus 2)
I dont wanna be with you anymore
I just dont want you anymore
I dont wanna be with you anymore
I just dont want you anymore
I know you say
Maybe some day
I need never be alone
I know I say its the right way,
But youll never be alone
(repeat chorus 1)
I dont wanna be with you anymore
I just dont want you anymore
I dont wanna talk to you anymore
I dont like your way you walk anyhow

Ill Be Mellow When Im Dead
I dont care about your karma
I dont care about whats hip
No space cadets gonna tell me what to do
I wont swim in your jacuzzi
You cant make me settle down
Id rather kick and jump and bite and scratch
And scream until Im blue
I may as well be hyper as long as Im still around
cause Ill have lots of time to be laid back
When Im six feet underground.
(chorus)
Ill be mellow when Im dead (Ill be mellow when Im dead)
Ill be mellow when Im dead (Ill be mellow when Im dead)
Ill be mellow when Im dead (Ill be mellow when Im dead)
When are you cosmic cowboys gonna get it through your heads
Ill be mellow when Im dead
Ill be mellow when Im dead
Ill be mellow when Im dead
I cant stand the smell of incense
I dont really like to jog
No joanie mitchell 8-tracks in the car (oooh)
I hate anything organic
Even health food makes me sick
You wont catch me sipping perrier
Down in some sushi bar, I tell you
Nows the time to go for all the gusto you can grab
Youll have plenty of time to be low-key
When youre laid out on the slab
(chorus)
Ow! bobcat!
I dont want no part of that vegetarian scene
I wont buy me a pair of designer jeans
No redwood hot tub to my name
I got all that I want and if its all the same to you
I dont need a course in selfawareness
To find out who I am
And Id rather have a big mac or a jumbo jack
Than all the bean sprouts in japan
Ah so dont ask me what Im into
I dont need to prove Im cool
Ill break your arm if you ask me whats my sign
I wont tell you where my heads at
I dont need to see no shrink
Psychosis may be in this year but Im really not that kind
And Im in no hurry to be casual
In fact I think Ill wait
Until Im pushing up the daisies
Like wow, man, can you relate?
Ill be mellow when Im dead
Ill be mellow when Im dead
Ill be mellow when Im dead (mellow when Im dead)
Ill be mellow when Im dead
Ill be mellow when Im dead
Ill be mellow when Im dead (mellow when Im dead)
Ill be mellow when Im dead

Row Jimmy
Julie catch a rabbit by his hair
Come back steppin like to walk on air
Get back home where you belong
And dont you run off no more.
Dont hang your head, let the two time roll
Grass shack nailed to a pine wood floor
Ask the time baby I dont know
Come back later, gonna let it show.
I say row jimmy row, gonna get there, I dont know,
Seems a common way to go, get out and row, row, row, row, row.
Heres a half dollar if you dare
Double twist when you hit the air,
Look at julie down below,
The levee doin the do-pas-o.
I say row jimmy row, gonna get there, I dont know
Seems a common way to go, get out and row, row, row, row, row.
Broken heart dont feel so bad,
You aint got half of what you thought you had.
Rock you baby to and fro
Not too fast and not too slow.
I say row jimmy row, gonna get there, I dont know,
Seems a common way to go, get out and row, row, row, row, row.
Thats the way its been in town,
Ever since they tore the jukebox down.
Two bit piece dont buy no more,
Not so much as it done before.
I say row jimmy row, gonna get there I dont know
Seems a common way to go, get out and row, row, row, row, row.

(Don't Go Back To) Rockville (edit)
Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station for a bus
Going to a place thats far, so far away and if thats not enough
I know it might sound strange, but I believe
Youll be coming back before too long
Dont go back to Rockville
Dont go back to Rockville
Dont go back to Rockville
And waste another year
At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend
I dont care if youre not here with me
Cause its so much easier to handle
All my problems if Im too far out to sea
But something better happen soon
Or its gonna be too late to bring you back
Dont go back to Rockville
Dont go back to Rockville
Dont go back to Rockville
And waste another year
Its not as though I really need you
If you were here Id only bleed you
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and
Thats not how it ought to be
I know it might sound strange, but I believe
Youll be coming back before too long
Dont go back to Rockville
Dont go back to Rockville
Dont go back to Rockville
And waste another year
Dont go back to Rockville

Dont go back to Rockville

Girl you know we belong together
I have no time for you to be playing
With my heart like this
Youll be mine forever baby, you just see

We belong together
And you that Im right
Why do you play with my head,
Hy do you play with my mind?
Said wed be forever
Said itd never die
How could you love me and leave me
And never say good-bye?
Girl I cant sleep at night without holding you tight
Girl, each time I try I just break down and cry
Pain in my head oh Id rather be dead
Spinnin around and around

Although weve come to the end of the road
Still I cant let you go
Its unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I cant let you go
Its unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Girl, I know you really love me,
You just dont realize
Youve never been there before
Its only your first time
Maybe Ill forgive you, hmm
Maybe youll try
We should be happy together
Forever, you and i
Girl, you love me again like you loved me before
This time I want you to love me much more
This time instead just come to my bed
And baby just dont let me, dont let me down

Girl Im here for you
All those times of night when you just hurt me
And just run out with that other fella
Baby I knew about it, I just didnt care
You just dont understand how much I love you do you?
Im here for you
Im not out to go out and cheat on you all night
Just like you did baby but thats all right
Hey, I love you anyway
And Im still gonna be here for you till my dying day baby
Right now, Im just in so much pain baby
Coz you just wont come back to me
Will you? just come back to me

And theres no one else around

When you feel like hope is gone
Thats when you can call me
Oh youll be strong, you hold on

The road is long
Just hang on

Dont Take Me Down
i love you girl thats what you used to say
And that no one would ever take it away
I gave you all I had inside, baby its alright
But then you took the love right from my heart
Its funny how things so strong can fall apart
I gave you all I had inside, baby its alright, ooh
One day youll wear out the lines you always use
Why do you say that youll change when you never do?
Ive always found a reason to let it slide...baby not this time.
Ooh, because I know where youre going from here
(dont take me down with you)

Dont take me down (take me down with you...)
cause I dont need no one and no ones ever gonna bring me down.
Dont take me down (dont take me down with you...)

You had someone; you had me to love.
Why do we put up all these fronts?
Theres something about the way that you loved me once.
And why, why is it wrong to want it back again?
Oh no... one day youll wear out the lines you always use
Why do you say that youll change when you never do?
Ive always found a reason to let it slide...baby not this time.
Ooh, because I know where youre going from here

Hang In Long Enough
The signs are getting clearer, clearer than you need
The writings on the wall, for you to see
You never thought youd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and Ill find the key
Reach out and touch its all yours.
If you hang in long enough, youll do it
Just hang in long enough
Youre down on the ground, or so you say
Youd sell the hole in your pocket, if you could find a way
Dont ask me how I know, you dont wanna hear
Its been a long hard road, and the end is getting near.
You never thought youd ever get the chance
You never thought your break would come along
If you tell me what you want, Ill find the key
Just reach out and touch its all yours
If you hang in...
They always say
The best things in life are free
But you want to have everything
Well youre going to have to beg if you want it all.
So hang in long enough, youll do it
Hang in long enough
Theyll let you out, then pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions,
Youll feel like giving in.
So just hang in long enough...

Night Of The Living Dead
Before I lay my head I say my prayers
My future starts when I see the first light of day
When I woke up today, I didnt really feel ok
I wasnt myself, I couldnt be no one else
Night of the living dead, thats what my momma said
Thats what she said, dont let them in your head
If you want to hang around
Please dont you bring me down
A zombie will steal your soul
Dont let them take control
Control, control, control
Night of the living dead, thats what my momma said
Thats what she said, dont let them in your head
Do you know who you are?
I know who I am
Dont know where Im going
But I can tell you where Ive been
Where I am right now
Is where I want to be
Nothing you can do or say
Can take me away from me
Night of the living dead, thats what my momma said
Thats what she said, dont let them in your head
