Old Man
I had my rent-a-car flyin' down a two-lane road
Late for my plane again
Had to stop for some gas at this country store
That's when I saw the old man
He was kicked back workin' on a big RC
Watchin' Gomer Pyle on his little TV
Took him awhile to even notice me
Sittin' there I thought to myself
Old man (Old man) you got one up on me
I'm still lookin' for my shady tree
With your two gas pumps and your color TV
Your satisfied as you can be
Old man (Old man) I guess you got one up on me
Well, he finally strolled over with a big ol' smile
Said "How ya doin, son?"
I said "Give me five dollars worth as fast as you can...
'Cause I'm really in a run."
He said "What's your hurry on a day like this?
If you move too fast, there's a lot you'll miss
If you wanna see what the good life is
Just get out and visit awhile."
Old man (Old man) you got one up on me
I'm still lookin' for my shady tree
With your two gas pumps and your color TV
Your satisfied as you can be
Old man (Old man) I guess you got one up on me
Don't remember just what it was
The old man said to me
But I forgot about catchin' the plane
And opened up the big RC
Old man (Old man) you got one up on me
I'm still lookin' for my shady tree
With your two gas pumps and your color TV
Your satisfied as you can be
Old man (Old man) you got one up on me
Old man
Old man
Old man
Old man
Old man you got one up on me...

What You Lookin At
Lyrics by Dan Colon
X-Factor Theme
Yo you dealin' with the X-Factor!
I got everything I ever wanted,
And I'll never give that back.
Well, I know you hate X-Factor, but you ain't gotta look at me like that,
I said you ain't gotta look at me like that.
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
You wanna rhyme pullin' stunts like that,
See never in my life could I front like that,
I ain't cut like that, I couldnt' run like that,
I'ma keep it non-fiction and take my hat,
Uhhh, Remember back when things looked grim,
I spent a lot of money and time on whimps,
I remember the crew, Remember the good times,
Remember the orange and I'll remember the sunshine,
It's all gone thats the thing of the past,
The fact remains that it moves real fast,
So while you sit around and hope things won't change,
I'll be sittin' pretty singing Hey Pac Wait!
I gotta' tell you baby, Life's been good to me,
And I know that makes you mad 'cause thats something you can't see.
I got everything I ever wanted,
And I'll never give that back.
Well, I know you hate X-Factor, but you ain't gotta look at me like that,
I said you ain't gotta look at me like that.
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
Yo hear me comin' off of songs of redemption,
I've been a prass for rast and attaption,
I've got your extention, but I'll probably never call,
I'm apalled by the things you done,
Left a trail of wrongs and can't account for one,
I get done and I'm glad, but it's a shame you waste it,
You want this so bad you can taste it!
Detroit love do you feel now!?
A stick can move can you feel now!?
I'm on a ride for the 2-triple-0,
Full flair your all american hero!
I gotta' tell you baby, Life's been good to me,
And I know that makes you mad 'cause thats something you can't see.
I got everything I ever wanted,
And I'll never give that back.
Well, I know you hate X-Factor, but you ain't gotta look at me like that,
I said you ain't gotta look at me like that.
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
I'm here to tell you baby, Life's been good to me,
And I know that makes you mad 'cause thats something you can't see.
I got everything I ever wanted,
And I'll never give that back.
Well, I know you hate X-Factor, but you ain't gotta look at me like that,
I said you ain't gotta look at me like that.
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?
What you lookin' at?

Shady Lady
Out from st. louis
I wasnt choosy
I just wanted to get
Back on the road
I hitched in cars
And worked in bars
Lookin for a place
To lay down my load
I met a lady, a shady lady
And someone told her
I was all on my own
She poured a beer
And said when Im finished here
Hang around cause
Im taking you home
Dont worry
Ill treat you all right
Dont worry
You can stay all night
I thought it was any easy ride
But I didnt know where
I was until I got inside
She said, ok sonny
Give me your money
And dont start any foolin around
I said what, I said what
Dont you think youre
Turning me upside down
She said, I dont care
Ive been everywhere
And Ive not been looking for you
But Ill take you in
And give you a spin
Youll know some tricks
By the time we get through
Shady lady
You want it all your own way
Shady lady
You wont let go of your prey
Shady lady
Eat me up and spit me out
But lets get started now
I know what youre talking about
Now in the morning
As the day was dawning
Shady asked me if
Id stay there awhile
I said stay, baby no way
But I couldnt keep myself
From a smile
I said now no bye-byes
Go in and dry your eyes
That aint fittin
For a lady like you
Why not be smart
And give your life another start
But take care now
Whatever you do
Shady lady
Im on my way
Shady lady
Well meet again one day
And dont worry cause when we do
Im gonna make sure
That there aint
Very much left of you

I'm Just An Ordinary Tree
My existence
start from a little piece of seed...
First, I was bury on the ground...
Then, I showed my two cute leaves up in to world...
But it didn't end just like that...
I grow... more and more...
With love, hope and care,
I became a tree...
Tree with many leaves,
if you need some shady circumstance...
Tree with a strong wood,
if you need me to make a good wardrobe...
Tree with a tight root,
if you want to make a solid foundation...
Tree with a sincerely pray,
if you need a support...
Tree with an everlasting presence,
if you need a friend beside you forever...
Tree with a dry branch,
if you want to share your tears...
Tree with a pure dew,
if you feel thirsty...
Tree with a warm wind,
if you get cold and alone...
Tree with a full color's flowers,
if you feel your life so black and white...
Tree with many hopes,
if you lost your dreams away...
But... after all,
I'm just an ordinary Tree...

You're Just Never Satisfied
If you love me. why do you hurt me
Come on baby. don't desert me
I was there when you were in trouble
Now you're fine but I guess you changed your mind
'Cause you're never satisfied
God only know why I try to please you
You're just never satisfied
I don't mind it when you get angry
I'm not asking for you to beg me
All I want to do is remind you
How many times I put my ass on the line
'Cause you're never satisfied
God only know why I try to please you
You're just never satisfied
You're just never satisfied
You don't care if I stuck with you
Covered for you, put up with you
'Cause all you wanna do
Is try your love with somebody new
Ooh
I've been wasting my time
'Cause you're never satisfied
God only know why I try to please you
You're just never satisfied
You're just never satisfied

Im Alright
Well its been a long time glad to see your face
I knew wed meet again another time another place
Cant believe its been so many years
Youd better grab a chair and a couple of beers
Lookin good in your three piece suit
You know I always knew youd take the business route
You were always the one to follow the light and you look like youre doing alright
Been singin for my rent and singin for my supper
Im above the below and below the upper
Im stuck in the middle where money gets tight
But I guess Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O- oh o-oh, Im alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well we had a lot of dreams when we were younger
They thought we were crazy but we had the hunger
We kept a lot of friends skipped a lot of class
Been on top of the world and knocked on our
We lost touch, we lost in love
We lost our minds when things got tough but
Beatin time is a losin fight and I guess Im doin alright
Im all Im all Im alright
Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright
O-oh o-oh Im alright
I got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright
Well I guess Im doin alright
Well I hate to see this evening end
God only knows when Ill see you again
Just send a fax or send me a letter or give me a call that would even be better
Give the kids a kiss for me and say hello to the family
And tell them all my futures lookin bright
Well I miss em but Im doin alright
I said I miss em but Im doin alright

Its a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess Im doin alright

Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess Im doin alright

Good Lookin Man
(joyce harrison)
Ive been catchin a glance
Do you like what you see
Even across the room
Your eyes been talkin to me
Easy to tell youve turned some heads
In your day
Hopin youll choose the next slow dance
To walk my way
Nothin like a good lookin
Good lookin man
More bout you than meets the eye
I wanna know first hand
Baby Ive got this strong feelin
Strong as a woman can
Im lookin into the face of love
And its a good lookin man
How did you get sweet fit
Right in each of those arms
Talkin as if were all alone
Workin your charm
Im likin that edgy temper
You try not to show
Notice the shyness in the way
You smile real slow
Nothin like a good lookin
Good lookin man
More bout you than meets the eye
I wanna know first hand
Baby Ive got this strong feelin
Strong as a woman can
Im lookin into the face of love
And its a good lookin man
Come a little closer
Closer yet
The longer and longer Im with you
The better and better you get
Nothin like a good lookin
Good lookin man
More bout you than meets the eye
Im findin out first hand
Baby Ive got this strong feelin
Strong as a woman can
Im lookin into the face of love
And its a good lookin man
Come a little closer
Closer yet
Ooooh, closer yet
Closer yet...

I Just Cant See For Lookin
(robinson, stamford)
Maybe I talk too much,
Maybe Ive lost m touch.
I guess I dont know whats cookin
cause I just cant see for lookin.
Other boys have their chicks,
Two, three, four, five or six.
I dont seem to get a bookin
cause I just cant see for lookin.
Im kinda crazy,
Like a daisy
Up that well known tree, poor me.
Im sittin, hopin,
Horoscopin
Wont some sista take a chance with me?
Ive been around the town,
Everyone brings me down.
I give up hope, Im just a dope.
There aint no gals for hookin,
I just cant see for lookin.

What Color? (Hope)
what color
was the dust
from which the stars
were made?
what color is the hunger
written on the child's face?
what color is justice,
forgiveness, desire, truth?
what color is the wind....
the rain, gravity,
and knowledge?
what color is equality?
what color is freedom?
what color is eternity?
what color is redemption?
what color is God?
what color were the nails
that hung Jesus on the cross?
what color was enlightenment
falling on the Buddha as he sat
'neath that tree?
what color is prejudice, hatred,
fear, greed, apathy.....
what color your skin?
nay, what color is your blood?
and what color are the eyes
of humanity staring through the darkness?
and what color is hope?

Someone Like You
Ive been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
Ive been travelling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly
Like you.
Ive been travellin a hard road
Lookin for someone exactly like you
Ive been carryin my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come
Shining through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. someone exactly

Ive been doin some soul searching
To find out where youre at
Ive been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Someone like you... etc.
Ive been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different
Drum.
But just lately I have
Realised
The best is yet to come.

Heres Lookin At You Kid

Published by mfg sing sing music/socan - ascap
The kid in the valleys got an attitude
Lean and mean, with nothin to lose
He aint uptight, he dont care no more
The girls start screamin as he hits the floor
The time is now, while the night is young
Youre on the road, wanting to run
You got to stop boy, it aint just talk, no way
So turn up the heat, and let it rock
Heres lookin at you, heres lookin at you kid
Heres lookin at you, heres lookin at you kid
Look at me, I got my dancin shoes
Theres lots of women, which one do I choose
Ill place a wager, with a ten dollar bill
If the blond dont get me, then the brunette will
Heres lookin at you, heres lookin at you kid
Heres lookin at you, heres lookin at you kid, alright
Better not tell me that Im unkind
But I dont wanna hear whats on your mind, no way
I dont need trouble, that was yesterday
I came to party, I came to play, yeah
So heres lookin at you, heres lookin at you kid
Heres lookin at you, heres lookin at you kid
Heres lookin at you (heres lookin at you), heres lookin at you kid

Satisfied
Lets go walkin up that mountainside
Look down in the valley down below
And we survey this wondrous scene
Wait a minute-
Hold that dream.
Hold that dream.
Dont want to change my name and write a book
Just like catcher in the rye
Settle down in a shady nook
Talkin to my baby now
Im satisfied
With my world
Cause I made it
The way it is.
Satisfied (satisfied.)
Inside.
Go to the mountain
Come back to the city
Where a whole lot of things
Dont look very pretty
Spiritual hunger and spiritual thirst
But you got to change it
On the inside first
To be satisfied
To be satisfied
Sometimes I think I know where its at
Other times Im completely in the dark
You know, baby, cause and effect
I got my karma from here right to new york
Im satisfied
With my world
Cause I made it
The way it is
Satisfied (satisfied)
Inside.
Sometimes I think I know how it is
Other times Im completely in the dark

A Touch Away
Mother natures been good to me
Thats why Im sittin in this cherry tree
But its alright, its alright
Its not so bad
Im just a touch away
The shady lady
From shady lane
Is lying in my bed again
And its alright
It feels good
Its not so bad
When shes just a touch away
Nothing much
Is all I ask
And its alright, ok yes
Light as a feather, oh yes
Like a rosebud
When the sun is high
She opens up
Before my eyes
And the light falls
On her wet skin
Its alright
Im just a touch away
Nothing much
Is all I know
And its alright, oh yes
Light as a feather,
And just a touch away
Put a finger to her lips again
She cries with pleasure
Cries wih pain
And its alright
It feels good
Its not so bad
Were just a touch away
Nothing much
Is all I know
Not too fast
Not too slow
And its alright
Soft as a feather
And just a touch away

On an neverending trail
Though my pathway wanders for a heart

And I will walk it with a smile
I will take it in my stride
Someday Ill be satisfied
Theres eternity before me
Just beyond the darkning veil
O my spirit hollers to go on

Stop Lookin Back
Stuck in the county jail,
Nobody here gonna pay my bail.
Thirty days with a smelly drunk,
A turn-key callin me a dirty punk.
I got to pick myself up, and stop lookin back.
And Ive got to move straight ahead, stop lookin back.

Shoot for the stars when my eyes cant see the starlight.
Reach for the sun in the night.
Stop lookin back at the times I was defeated,
I pick myself up, I move straight ahead, I stop lookin back.
Stranded! nothing worse.

Somebody take me home I wanna live in lust
When trust is low and stakes are high
Thtas all I ever did in denver was die

Thats all I ever did in la was die)
So put em up, put em up to the sky
And wave goodbye to miss american pie

Whatever happened to the feel good music?
Somewhere, somehow, some way somebody pulled the plug
And left me sittin in a dirty little pub

Sad Lookin Moon

I thought that you could fly, I thought that you had wings
I guess that I believed youd never say goodbye
But my world stopped turnin round, the stars turned upside down
It knocked me to the ground on my knees
Chorus:
Now theres a sad lookin moon shinin down on me
Theres a sad lookin sky as far as I can see
I always believed and I thought the stars could see
But theres a sad lookin moon shinin down on me

I opened up my heart and I gave you my ring
Well I spent days and nights just thinkin about the time
When you would be mine all my life
