Take The Short Way Home
Take the short way home (intro)
Youve been makin up your mind
And I can save you from the trouble
That your heart is goin through
And I can tell you what your
Futures gonna be
Maybe we can open up your eyes
Baby , you cant leave me now
There is lightning in the city
Stranger than you ever saw
Get back to your special lover
And I wont ever turn on you or tell you
You should tell me where you go
Just take the short way home
Baby, take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you to myself
Take the short way home
Youll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
And you can make it easy on yourself
Some other love may call my name when youre away
And Ill be gone
Theres no other who could ever love you more
Keep talkin to myself when Im alone
I dont want to be alone
Crazy people in the shadows
Love is only what you find
Come back here and youll discover
There aint nothing you been searchin for
I could not give you now if you were mine
Just take the short way home
Baby take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you to myself
Take the short way home
Youll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
(break)
Crazy people in the shadows
Love is only what you find
Come back here and youll discover
There aint nothing you been searchin for
I could not give you now if you were mine
Must take the short way home
Baby take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you for myself
Take the short way home
Youll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
Take the short way home
Baby take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you for myself
Take the short way home
Youll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied

Bright Lights
She got out of town on the railway, new york bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on broadway
Well, some things in this world you just cant change
Some things you cant see until it gets too late
[chorus]
Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
Who will save me from all Im up against out in this world
And maybe, maybe, maybe
Youll find something thats enough to keep you
But if the bright lights dont receive you
You should turn yourself around and come on home
I got a hole in me now
I got a scar I can talk about
She keeps a picture of me in her apartment in the city
But some things in this world
Man, they dont make sense
Some things you dont leave until they leave you
And then the things that you miss, you say
[chorus]
Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
Who will save me from all Im up against out in this world
And maybe, maybe, maybe
Youll find something thats enough to keep you
But if the bright lights dont receive you
You should turn yourself around and come on home
Let that city take you in (come on home)
Let that city spit you out (come on home)
Let that city take you down, yeah
For God sakes turn around
[chorus]
Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
Who will save me from all Im up against out in this world
Yeah well, maybe, maybe, maybe
Youll find something thats enough to keep you
But if the bright lights dont receive you
Well, turn yourself around and come on home
Yeah, come on home
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Come on home
Yeah, come on home
Yeah, come on home
Yeah, come on home
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Come on home

Down Town
(words and music by duran duran)
Deliver use from evil, we go with the flow.
Heres a little secret, I think you ought to know.
Providers and abusers, they know where to go.
With sundays refugees, from sunday tv shows.
(downtown!) all of the way down
(downtown!) all of the way downtown
(downtown!) all of the way down
(downtown!) all of the way downtown..
Lets sink imagination, past your wildest while (all of the way downtown)
Go way delow, below, below, is it such a crime?
Ahhhh the uptown, cant teach you how to live,
They dont have the time
cos where Im gonna take you, is a state of mind.
Ahhoouu
(chorus)
You better learn to use your heart
You gotta loose your money
You better use it all up
cos you cant take it with you when youre going down..
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown
All of the way downtown
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown (down, down)
All of the way downtown
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown
All of the way downtown
You never come home babe
You never come home baby
And youll never be alone, all of the way downtown...

Heart Trouble
(paul kennerley)
The way you treat me baby
Cheat and tell me lies
I guess I shouldnt care at all
But still I care at all
But still I sympathize
cause youve got heart trouble
Coming on
Yeah you got heart trouble coming on
Well you think that you dont meed me baby
But youre gonna miss me when Im gone
You say that love cant touch you
You feel no pain at all
You think that youve above it baby
But I believe youll fall
cause youve got heart trouble coming on
Yeah you got heart trouble coming on
Well, youll get down on your knees baby
Begging me to come back home
You tell me youll find someone else
But on ones gonna care
cause you have left a trail
Of broken heart everywhere
Now, youll got heart trouble coming on
Yeah, youll got heart trouble
Coming on
Well youll know just how it feels baby
When youre left here all alone

Satisfied
(stewart, taupin, cregan, savigar)
Its a common misconception
About a mans role in this world
A provider and survivor and
A winner who must never fail
But oh how he needs a woman
To reassure and give him strength
Through the darkest nights
And the hardest fights
When theres no other corner left
When the world outside is threatening
And all his dreams have been destroyed
Take him in your arms watch all his guards
Melt like a little boy
Tell him you really need him
Tell him you really care
Tell him youll never leave him
Hell be satisfied
And he may not find it easy
To say whats on his mind
When hes full of doubt
Say well work it out
God knows how hard hes trying
And he may never buy you roses
And forget to notice your hair
But as long as he says i love you my dear
Thats all you need to hear
Tell him you really need him
Tell him youll aways care
Tell him youll never leave him
Hell be satisfied
And they say the hearts a hunter
But its truth you cant deny
He may never be everything you want
But for you hed lay down and die
So friday night when the phone rings
And hes stuck in a downtown bar
Roll away the stone
Cause the last mile home
Is the longest mile of them all
Tell him you really need him
Tell him youll always care
Tell him youll never leave him
Hell be satisfied
Tell him you really want him
Tell him you understand
And tell him that you love him
Hell be satisfied

Taking you home - (don henley/stan lynch/stuart brawley)
I had a good life
Before you came
I had my friends and my freedom
I had my name
Still there was sorrow and emptiness
til you made me glad
Oh, in this love I found strength I never knew I had
1st chorus:
And this love
Is like nothing I have ever known
Take my hand, love
Im taking you home
Taking you home
There were days, lonely days
When the world, wouldnt throw me a crumb, no no
But I kept on believing
That this day would come
And this love
Is like nothing I have ever known, no no baby
Take my hand love
Im taking you home
Im taking you, home
Where we can be with the ones who really care
Home, where we can grow together
Keep you in, my heart forever

I Want You With Me
(words & music by harris)
When I was little, my mama said to me
One day youll find a love to last eternally
I want you with me everywhere I go
So please dont leave me baby, I love you so
Ill be the ruler of this whole wide world
If you will only say youll be my girl
I want you with me in everything I do
You know I need you baby, Im in love with you
There is no mountain that I cant climb
You find the mountain, child, and Ill find the time
I want you with me, with me night and day
Well, you can make me happy baby, dont you go away
Ill swim an ocean with a raging foam
If I know that youll be there when I come back home
I want you with me, you know I love you so
Well, I want you with me baby, Ill never let you go
Well, I want you with me baby, Ill never let you go

Tellin great big lies

And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet
Well, I dont want no short people

As you and i

All men are brothers
Until the day they die

Short people got nobody

That stand so low
You got to pick em up
Just to say hello

Maybe Someday
Maybe someday youll be satisfied
When youve lost everything youll have nothing left to hide.
When youre through running over things like youre walking cross the tracks,
Maybe youll beg me to take you back.
Maybe someday youll find out everybodys somebodys fool,
Maybe then youll realize what it would have taken to keep me cool.
Maybe someday when youre by yourself alone
Youll know the love that I had for you was never my own.
Maybe someday youll have nowhere to turn,
Youll look back and wonder bout the bridges you have burned.
Youll look back sometime when the lights grow dim
And youll see you look much better with me than you do with him.
Through hostile cities and unfriendly towns,
Thirty pieces of silver, no money down.
Maybe someday, you will understand
That something for nothing is everybodys plan.
Maybe someday youll remember what you felt
When there was blood on the moon in the cotton belt.
When both of us, baby, were going though some sort of a test
Neither one of us could do what we do best.
I should have known better, baby, I should have called your bluff.
I guess I was too off the handle, not sentimental enough.
Maybe someday, youll believe me when I say
That I wanted you, baby, in every kind of way.
Maybe someday youll hear a voice from on high
Sayin for whose sake did you live, for whose sake did you die?
Forgive me, baby, for what I didnt do
For not breakin down no bedroom door to get at you.
Always was a sucker for the right cross.
Never wanted to go home til the last cent was lost.
Maybe someday you will look back and see
That I made it so easy for you to follow me.
Maybe someday therell be nothing to tell.
Im just as happy as you, baby, I just cant say it so well.
Never slumbered or slept or waited for lightning to strike.
Theres no excuse for you to say that we dont think alike.
You said you were going to frisco, stay a couple of months.
I always liked san francisco, I was there for a party once.
Maybe someday youll see that its true
There was no greater love than what I had for you.

If I Dont Have You
Every day girl I wake up and pray
That youll come back home
And dont take to long
cause since youve been gone
Everythings gone all wrong
I wish you were here
Holding me near
You know Id go
Out of my mind
If you ever left
My heart beats high
So Im begging you please
Bring your sweet love back to me(please come back to me)
Chorus
If I dont have you(dont have you)
To hold on to(to hold on to)
I cant go on
In this world alone
Baby its true
If I dont have you
If you said good-bye(you said good-bye)
Girl I would die(girl I would die)
Im a star with no light
A day with no night
If I dont have you
Late at night
I reach to hold you tight
But youre not there(youre just not there baby)
I know you still care(I know you still care)
And all I need
Youre soft and love, lovely kiss
You give to me (to me)
So tenderly
Will you still feel
The time will stand still
When I see you, baby you will
So hurry home
You know you made me just so

Leaving
If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, Im movin on
Youll always be, my baby
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for awhile
Hope I could make it back around
Anything that I want I can get it, boy
You know you turn me on and on
Thats why I switch my frame my mind
Of bein' there when you call; always on time
Im lookin to spread my wings and party
Everything and for everybody
Need my space, no time alone
Its like our hearts dont match no more
Still anything that you want, you can get it, boy
You know I still got love for you
(In court i plead the 5th my baby)
(Chorus)
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for a while
Hope I could make it back around
When you was cheatin me you probably thinkin
I won't sense a thing,
But love got funny ways of catchin up to lies
Your lies can't look me straight in the eyes
Im not surprised
That you can hurt me, baby
Though why me, baby?
Just let me breathe in i'll fly freely
If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, Im movin on
Youll always be my baby
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for awhile
Hope I could make it back around
Yo, yo
Why in the world would you wanna leave me, girl
Is there somethin out there
That you feel is better than what's here at home
And I know a bitch can do bad on her own
Youre not alone the way you hurt me, baby
Shit why me, baby
I feel your pain a little
But I know that love is good
And as long as I let you go
That you feel the need to come back to me, baby
Who else gon' hold you and sex you crazy
R--U--L--E
Come on back and holla at me, baby
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now

Looking Out My Window
Words and music by Tom Jones
(Now people you know who I am,
and you know what I can do,
but I got a problem now and Im gonna tell you about it,
Im looking for this woman, ysee,
Listen, this is the way the story goes)
Looking out my window
Looking at the rain
Nothing left but pain
Whyd you go and leave me
Sad alone and blue
Looking out my window woman
Tryin to find you
Why did you leave me?
Why did you grieve me?
Looking out my window
What do I see?
Nobodys crying
Half as bad as me
I dont think that they feel
So alone and blue
Looking out my window baby
Trying to find you
Why did you leave me?
Why did you grieve me?
Id like to tell you about
This little girl that left
Me so alone and blue
The trouble is if I paint the
Picture too well you
Might fall in love with her too
She was about 5-6
A little bag of tricks
My mama told me to watch myself but I didnt listen
Because for you baby Id scratch out my eye
Looking out my window
Down the railroad track
Waiting for that little brown eyed girl
Shes coming back
I gotta hear that whistle blowing
Down the line
Come back girl
Shell be mine, oh mine
Why did you leave me?
Why did you grieve me?
Woah
Baby come on home
Im so alone
Yknow I dont care what the world might say
Im gonna love you
Oh baby
Im down on my knees
And Im beggin you please
Ah
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
I love you, I love you
Come on home, come on home baby, come on home baby, come on home baby, to me.

Around My World In 80 Days
And now weve finally reached the point
And you want to get in
I guess that I should tell you
That theres just one thing
Just a little journey, I have to send you on
Just to figure out
Where Im coming from
And where you do belong
Around my world in 80 days
Maybe more if it pays
Around my love, my evil ways
Around my head in 80 days
Discover dungeons of dispair
That is what you have to share
If you walk this way with me
But our love will make us free
Might be that youll like it
Could be that youre shocked
But dont hesitate to open doors
That seem locked
Maybe youll find fear
Maybe youll see clear
Maybe youll find an open heart
So sincere
That wants you to be near
Around my world in 80 days...

I,i dont care if the sky is pretty blue
I,i dont care if the sun comes shining through
It really doesnt matter baby, my heart keeps cryin
Oh,life means nothing till you say youll be mine
Untill you say youll give all your love to me
Aint nothing in this world that can make me happy
I just got to have you for my own,my heart keeps cryin
Oh,life means nothing till you say youll be mine
Every night I pray that we can someday walk hand in hand
Down the aisle
But,i guess Ill have to wait and see
Oh,this waiting is killin me,Im no child
I dont care if I had all the money in the world
It just wouldnt matter if I wasnt your girl
Baby,theres only one thing that will stop my heart from cryin
The day you tell me that youll be mine
Ill be so happy the day you tell me that youll be mine

Asked sweet mama, let me be her kid
She said, you might get hurt if you dont keep it hid
Well I know my baby, if I see her in the dark
I said I know my rider, if I see her in the dark
Now, I goin to rosedale, take my rider by my side
Still barrelhouse, if its on the riverside, yeah
I know my baby, lord, I said, is really sloppy drunk
I know my mama, lord, a brownskin, but she aint no plum
See my baby, tell her, tell her hurry home
Had no lovin, since my baby been gone
See my baby, tell hurry on home
I aint had, lord, my right mind, since my riders been gone
Hey, she promises, shes my rider
I wanna tell you, shes my rider
I know youre mine, shes my rider
She aint but sixteen, but shes my rider
Im goin to rosedale, take my rider by side
Anybody argue with me man, Ill keep them satisfied
Well, see my baby, tell her, tell her the shape Im in
Aint had no lovin, lord, since you know when
Spoken: why dont you come into my kitchen
Shes a kindhearted lady. she studies evil all the time
Shes a kindhearted woman. she studies evil all the time
Squeeze my lemon til the juice runs down my leg
Squeeze it so hard, Ill fall right out of bed
Squeeze my lemon, til the juice runs down my leg
Spoken: I wonder if you know what Im talkin about
Oh, but the way that you squeeze it girl
I swear Im gonna fall right out of bed
Shes a good rider
Shes my kindhearted lady
Im gonna take my rider by my side
I said her front teeth are lined with gold
Shes gotta mortgage on my body, got a lien on my soul
Shes my brownskin sugar plum...

Tell It Like It Is
Say it say it say it tell it like it is
Say it say it say it tell it like it is
What breaks your heart
What keeps you awake at night
What makes you want to breakdown and cry
But say youll never turn your back
Say youll never harden to the world
Say youll never try to still the rhythms in your breast
Say youll never look at the evil among us and try to forget
Say youll tell it like it is
Say it say it say it so everyone can hear
Say it say it say it tell it like it is
What breaks your hear
What keeps you awake at night
How your anger and grief
Make you want to cry out
And tell it like it is
But say youll never close your eyes
Or pretend that its a rosy world
Say youll never try to paint
What is rotten with a sugarcoat
Say youll talk about the horrors youve seen and the torment you know
And tell it like it is
Say it say it say it
So no one can forget
Say it say it say it tell it like it is
What breaks your heart
What keeps you awake at night
What makes you want to break the ties that silence and bind
And tell it like it is
Say youll never cover your ears and close your mouth
And live in a silent world
Say youll only run as far or as fast as you need to be secure
Say that then youll tell the truth
When a lie could cross your lips
And tell it like it is
Say it say it say it - say it say it say it
Say it say it say it - say it say it say it
Say it say it say it - say it say it say it
Say it say it say it - say it say it say it
