You can't dodge them all. I got hammered plenty of times through the years. But you just get up and keep playing. I can tell you from experience, though. Sometimes it hurts like hell.

I Love Him So Much
Written by chuck jackson and marvin yancy
Today we broke up, tomorrow well make up
And again hell hang up on me
But you see I know hell never hurt me
I know hell never desert me
And so I just say thats my man anyway
Tonight well love plenty, tomorrow maybe not any
But Im sure hell come through just in time
And to me hes more than just a man
Hes my life so I understand why things has got to be his way
And I love him so much, so much til it hurts me
Yes, I do, so much, so much til it hurts me
He makes me cry when I wanna laugh sometimes
His moods, they keep changing all the time
But I know just where his head is when its not laying on top of mine
His world is not so different and you may not believe
But Im sure youd understand him if you were me
And thats why this world cant look and frown
But Ill never let him down
That is my man and he means the world to me
And I love him so much, so much til it hurts me
Yes, I love him so much, so much til it hurts me
Oh (so much, so much til it hurts me)
I love him so (so much, so much til it hurts me) much
So much, so much--

The Anvil
England's on the anvil--hear the hammers ring--
Clanging from the Severn to the Tyne!
Never was a blacksmith like our Norman King--
England's being hammered, hammered, hammered into line!
England's on the anvil! Heavy are the blows!
(But the work will be a marvel when it's done.)
Little bits of Kingdoms cannot stand against their foes.
England's being hammered hammered, hammered into one!
There shall be one people--it shall serve one Lord--
(Neither Prist nor Baron shall escape!)
It shall have one speech and law, soul and strength and sword.
England's being hammered, hammered, hammered into
shape!

Hammered!
Hammered!
Hammered, harm, ham, hammer, me, dam, read;
So unique!
So lovely,
So nice,
Much attractive;
But, joyful with the peace of your mind.
Hammered!
The pollution,
Of the population,
The nature of things with the people;
Hammered, mean, near, dear, hear, era, ear, are, hard! !
But, it is just a matter of time.
Hammered!
Comments,
Bombardments,
Of the Red Planet;
Hammered, am, arm, dare, hare, mad, red, heard, had;
And like the muse of the Blue Planet.

Outta Hell In My Dodge
(randall hall, johnny van-zant, ed king, robert johnson)
Five a.m. in the mornin, whiskey still runnin through my head
I could get out of bed and maybe Ill just have another cigarette
As long as I can remember seems all Ive ever done is work
The boss is a jerk and I aint payin the rent
Spent my whole life shovelin dirt
(chorus)
Im gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Cant take this anymore
Gonna go downtown pick up my girl
There aint nothin worth waitin for
Take the road less traveled
Spend my life behind the wheel
Gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Freedom made out of steel
Theres a knock on the door from the sheriff
Askin me where I was last night
Seems somebody lookin a lot like me
Had takin up with his wife
He said son if I ever catch him
Theres gonna be some hell to pay
Hell be gone for good if I see him again
cause I just might blow him away
(repeat chorus)
Whats a poor man supposed to do
Stuck in the middle and trapped by the blues
Baby, Im sick of these blues
(chorus)
Im gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Cant take this anymore
Gonna go downtown pick up my girl
There aint nothin worth waitin for
Well I dont care if Im wrong or right
Gotta split this town tonight
Gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Live my life behind the wheel
Im gonna get outta hell in my dodge
My freedom made out of steel

She's Playing Hell Trying To Get Me To Heaven
(Dean Dillon/Charles Quillen/David Wills)
I let it all hang out last night
Come in hung over this morning
My woman met me at the door
Preaching me this warning
She said "You're gonna have to change
Your sinful way of living"
She's playing Hell
Trying to get me to Heaven
Well I promised to go to church with her
About a month of Sundays ago
And here it is, it's Sunday again
And I ain't been once in a row
And everytime that old church bell rings
You can hear my rod and reel singing
She's playing Hell
Trying to get me to Heaven
She's playing Hell
Trying to get me to Heaven
'Cause there ain't no way
All my sins could be forgiven
There's only Ten Commandments
But I broke at least eleven
She's playing Hell
Trying to get me to Heaven
She went out and bought me
A Sunday go-meeting suit
And I must confess it looked pretty sharp
With my old hunting boots
But wore holes in both the knees
Trying to roll them sevens
She's playing Hell
Trying to get me to Heaven
She's playing Hell
Trying to get me to Heaven

When we signed our deal in 1974, we'd already been together for six years. When they lowered the drinking age in Ontario in 1971 to 18 years, we went from playing two or three high schools in a month to playing clubs two or three times a week.

Crying In The Rain
Can you make it all right?
Can you make it okay?
When the top don't come out right, you move the sunlight away
Now I feel no pain
I do my crying in the rain
Everybody hurts when your playing the game of love
Stumble and fall and it's all in the name of love
Words don't come out right. Can you make it okay
And the way I feel I keep outside then make the heart break fade away
And the nights are long and cold, I want you here my dear to hold
Everybody hurts when your playing the game of love
Stumble and fall and it's all in the name of love
Everybody hurts when your playing the game of love
Tear it apart and it's all in the name of love
Now I feel no pain
I do my crying in the rain
Everybody hurts when your playing the game of love
Stumble and fall and it's all in the name of love
Words don't come out right. Can you make it okay?
Everybody hurts when your playing the game of love
Stumble and fall and it's all in the name of love
Words don't come out right. Can you make it okay?
Everybody hurts when your playing the game of love
Stumble and fall and it's all in the name of love
Words don't come out right. Can you make it okay?

My Life Has Been Unleavened Bread
My life has been
what it has been.
It was whatever it was.
I am that which I am.
There were times of intensity
purpose disciplined focus
faith belief vision especially
late teenage increasingly
in supposedly mature years.
Years of serious contemplation.
There were broken times
utter hopelessness
disorientation depressions
fear apathy especially
in early childhood in sad bad
times in veins of bitter years.
But God was never indifferent
watching waiting patient
as life lesson knowledge wisdom
was hammered home
in schools of hard taught knocks.
God was patient with me
as God said he would be.
Faith may have been broken
gone at times years but
ever reborn in converting
casting off of skins
of former mind lives
in growing molding
transformations ability
the scribe has yet to run
the remainder of good race.
Those that endure to the end
will as the bride of Christ
be invited into the wedding
feast of the lamb in heaven
bodies souls rise unleavened bread.

It Hurts Me
Slipping past the chimney-pots,
Down among the ashes, away from old times--
Why must I self-indulge in memories?
I should be celebrating to a moving melody,
But it hurts me, it hurts me,
Honey, honey, it hurts me.
And I'm feeling like a waltz,
Growing old, - old, old, old, old.
I was fiery but you put me out.
I was always one for loving and leaving.
I like to think I was immune to romance.
I should be laughing at some good old comedy.
Oh, but it hurts me, it hurts me.
Honey, honey, it hurts me.
And I'm feeling like a waltz -
If you laughed at me, I'd laugh too.
Waltz, don't you know that I'd be really breakin-ing.
L'amour--marche avec un etranger.
I shouldn't care, you're not my darling anymore,
But it hurts me, it hurts me,
Honey, honey, honey, honey.
And I'm feeling like a waltz,
Growing old, old, old, old, old

Wicked Teacher
Experience a wicked teacher
You push us into test
And examine our stuff
Before you begin to teach
How rigid you are
Your lessons linger on
Your scars never fade
Your memory ever fresh
Experience a wicked teacher
You don’t care about age
You teach the young
And warn the old
Experience a wicked teacher
You don’t pity our scars
But leave us with time
To bind our wound
Experience a wicked teacher
You never stop your test
Often we dodge it
But to meet it ahead.

Opening Titles Including Underground
It's only forever
Not long at allLost and lonely
No one can blame you
For walking away
Too much rejection
No love injection
Life can be easy
It's not always swell
Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl
'Cause it hurts like hell (echo hurts like hell)
But down in the underground
You'll find someone true
Down in the underground
A land serene
A crystal moon, ah ,ah
It's only forever
It's not long at all
Lost and lonely
That's underground

It Hurts
Take your time
Take it easy
Keep my little promise
In your mind
Making out
Make it easy
For all the broken pieces
Of my heart
A love like this I wasnt looking for
Ive never known a girl like you before
Lonely nights
Soft soap story
Playing in the bedroom
Of your mind
Acting up
I tried to make it happen
Just another extra
In your life
A love like this I wasnt looking for
Ive never known a girl like you before
Yeah
It hurts to say its over
Its sad to say its gone
It doesnt really matter
Whos right or wrong
When all is said and done
A love like this I wasnt looking for
Ive never known a girl like you before, well
It hurts to say its over
Its sad to say its gone
It doesnt really matter
Whos right or wrong
When all is said and done
Making eyes
Make it easy
For all the broken pieces
Of my heart
Trying hard
I nearly made it happen
Playing out the bedroom of your life
It hurts to say its over
Its sad to say its gone
It doesnt really matter
Whos right or wrong
When all is said and done
It hurts to say its over
Its sad to say its gone
It doesnt really matter
Whos right or wrong
When all is said and done
It hurts, yes it does, to say its over
It is over
Its sad, its so sad, to say its gone, gone, gone
It hurts, oh it hurts, to say its over
Yes it hurts
Its sad to say its gone, gone, gone
It hurts, yes it hurts, to say its over
Baby its over
Its sad, so sad, to say its gone, gone, gone

One Who Chooses to Focus
It hurts.
Feeling deserted.
Yet with a mind that continues to grow.
And no one around to expose this experience.
It hurts.
To understand and comprehend what others do not.
To feel as if a patience kept many have long stopped.
To see and witness confusion connected to lack of thought...
Is no fun when emotions are caught in sensitivity.
It hurts.
When this is focused!
But then again...
One who chooses to focus,
Can also make the choice to unfocus.

Hard Times (from Michigan)
In these hard times
Of unreported unemployed voices
Of ignored college graduates
Of desperate youth
As well as desperate old
In these times
Education is overlooked
Pale profit wins over ethics
Our youth gets pushed further
Further away from their hard earned achievements
Further away from their intricate dreams
In these times
Fresh bread is left behind to turn into mold
Experience overtakes knowledge
Education becomes a burden
The educated are the punished
When they should be awarded
Education is no longer counted as experience
Our interactions with one another
Is no longer experience
They become experience (in the eyes of employers) by the documentation of a paycheck
To be qualified
We must be paid to interact with each other
We must be paid to use our knowledge
We must be paid to develop our skills
When in reality
We pay for our education ourselves
And in our education in which we pay
We interact and learn from others without demanding to be paid
In the eyes of the employer
Education is not experience
Eight years of college and achieving a P.H.D.
Is no longer experience
What employers don't realize is...
Education is a full-time job
A full time job that we do not get paid for
Education doesn't employ us
We employ education for ourselves
Yet...education is still not experience
When will they open their eyes and enlighten their minds?
Education should never have to come last
But should always come first
No wonder we are behind

It Hurts Me
(words & music by byers - daniels)
It hurts me to see him treat you the way he does
It hurts me to see sit and cry
When I know I could be so true
If I had someone like you
It hurts me to see those tears in your eyes
The whole town is talking, theyre callin you a fool
For listening to his same old lies
And when I know I could be so true
If I had someone like you
It hurts me to see the way he makes you cry
You love him too much, youre too blind to see
Hes only playing a game
But hes never loved you
He never will
And darling, dont you know he will never change
Oh, I know he never will set you free
Because hes just that kind of guy
But if you ever tell him youre through
Ill be waiting for you
Waiting to hold you so tight
Waiting to kiss you goodnight
Yes, darling, if I had someone like you

Dodging The Truth
So maybe I was
Desperate for the truth
But you had to of known that
I tried to get you
To tell me many of time
It's all I ever wanted you to do
But all you can do is
Evade and Dodge
Like this is some kind of
Dodge ball game
I guess deep down
I knew you would never
Admit to doing it
And I know why
You won't either
And That there is no
Way that we can
Ever re-establish anything
That Terrifying Enemy
Two weeks after I graduated from high school,
I was in the Air Force.
Patriotic and eighteen.
Scared as hell during basic training...
But ready to kick plenty of ass!
And working hard during the week,
To receive a weekend pass!
Time seemed less urgent then!
We knew we would accomplish things!
And certain we were we would win!
Fourty-three years ago...
I wanted it known I wished to save souls then.
I wanted to be a pilot and fly,
But I became a poet with a pen!
And times have changed since then as well!
Now it is not clear,
Who is fighting for what and 'why' it should matter?
We have consciously let our treasured ideals...
Lose it's appeal to keep falsities,
In minds scattered!
And those with barely any military experience at all...
Have taken my home,
And given it away.
For a price we all now pay!
Greed has been that terrifying enemy,
That has brought upon us a failure.
Greed has been that terrifying enemy,
That has brought to us this grief!
Greed has been that terrifying enemy,
That brings us no relief...
To cease and/or free us!
Greed has been that terrifying enemy,
That has been camouflaging peace!
And the awareness of this has increased!

Come Hell Or High Water
Come hell or high water
I will cross the vast expanse of water
Throw anything at me I will dodge it out
Come here hell and I'll make you heaven
Come here high water I'll calm you down.
Let's see who'll beat whom and I'll call you out
Come hell or high water
Let's see what you can do
Let's see how I destroy you
You are no better than a storm
But I am no worse than the red storm on Jupiter too
Let's see how I wipe you out and Make a speck of you
Come hell or high water.
The second I feel the rocking of my ship
I'll take my ship out of you
Then see who's who and I'll defeat you
Come hell or high water
The second I see a ray of light
I'll know your dead
Then Let's see who wins the challenge
The sailor me or just a speck like you!
