Aint No More Cane
Aint no more cane on the brazos
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Its all been ground down to molasses
Oh, oh- oh, oh- oh...
You shoulda been on the river in 1910
They were driving the women just like they drove the men.
Go down old hannah, doncha rise no more
Dont you rise up til judgment days for sure
Aint no more cane on the brazos
Its all been ground down to molasses
Captain, dont you do me like you done poor old shine
Well ya drove that bully til he went stone blind
Wake up on a lifetime, hold up your own head
Well you may get a pardon and then you might drop dead
Aint no more cane on the brazos
Its all been ground down to molasses.

Baron Samedi
Ill show you man who walk on fire
And dont get burned
Dont get burned, dont get burned
He dont get burned
Ill show you man who tread on glass
And he dont get cut
Dont get cut, dont get cut
He dont get cut
You can take a knife and slit his throat
And he wont drop dead
Wont drop dead, wont drop dead
He wont drop dead
Been a ju-ju boy for a thousand years
And he aint cut yet
Aint cut yet, aint cut yet
He aint cut yet
Hold 'em
Youve got to crease 'em and fold 'em
Youve got to shape 'em and mould 'em
Take a piece of their soul man
Well he can take a little moonlight
Suck the poison from a snakebite
Movin round about midnight
Hes got the power of life
See the sacrifice of the virgin women
See the deadly snake and the headless chicken
Take a sip from dripping red
Make it with the living dead
Take you up when you feeling down
When youre sick he will come around
Takes his cures from out the ground
Hes the one who can hypnotize
And youll never believe your eyes
He can cause the dead to rise

Aint It Blue?
Done the things I said I would
Some of them were pretty good
Suddenly they changed the game
I only know its not the same no more
I dont know what to do the rules I knew
Aint it sad
Aint it sad
Aint it true
Aint it true
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
The life I live is pretty nice
Of course I had to pay a price
Lots of folks depend on me
Crazy kind of slavery, what for
I dont know what to do the rules I knew
Aint it sad
Aint it sad
Aint it true
Aint it true
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
Sometimes I want to walk away
I felt like that just yesterday
But then this song is in my head
I try my best till Im dead and gone
I dont know what to do the rules I knew
Aint it sad
Aint it sad
Aint it true
Aint it true
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
Aint it blue

I Aint Been Licked
(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)
Roll down the gangway
So theyll see that its me
I know theyll wonder about my recovery
Yes, I lost a love that promised happiness
What my heart wouldnt accept
Put me to the test
They keep a holding me down
But I rise
Yes it can be done
They keep a holding me down
But I rise
They cant make me run
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
Got my second wind
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
Tell em Im back again
Just say
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
Tell em for me
I aint been licked
Like outa nowhere my whole world fell apart
Till this day no one knows
What I felt in my heart
All those precious things
Inside me tried to still
Hands I thought would help
Pushed me over the hill
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
Yes, it can be done
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
They cant make me run
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
Got my second wind
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
Tell em Im back again
Just say
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
Tell em for me
I aint been licked
Keep a holding me down
But I rise
Just to start again
Rise
Show em that I can
Rise
Found a brand new dream
Rise
Just to prove one thing
Just say
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
Tell em for me
I aint been licked
I want the world to see
I aint been licked
Although my love is gone
I aint been licked
Somehow I carry one
I aint been licked
Ill find the strength somehow
I aint been licked
I think Im ready now
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
I aint been licked
I aint been licked

It aint necessarily so
No, it aint necessarily so
These things that youre liable,
To read in the bible.

You bet that you cant be wrong.
No place where you dont belong.
Theres nothin you dont know.
But it aint necessarily so
To you theres never no doubt.
Its either in or its out.
You sure put up quite a show.
But it aint necessarily so
I said hold, let your bad self go.
Hold on, caus you already know.
Its never maybe or might.
To you its black or its white.
If I say yes you say no.
But it anns necessarily so
Hold on, let your bad self go.
Hold on, cause you already know.
You think that you cant be wrong.

He Aint With Me
Calling all these other guys
Im seeing something I didnt before
Is that a new look in your eyes
Now you dont believe that Im asking for more
I saw you walking down the street
With another girl who looks just like me
People always say we look so happy
He took my love but he didnt take me
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
You say you laughed with your old girlfriend
Youre doing nothing to encourage the end
I could be charming on long distance too
And if you want Ill make it easier for you
Communication is the key
Interrogation dont work for me
You saw that other guy smiling at me
If you were here I wouldnt act so free
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
He likes to hold my hand in public
Stranger cant you see he aint with me
He aint with me he aint with me no more
He aint with me he aint with me
Bridge
I guess fate really has my number
Every time you wander away
I reconsider all the time you said youd stay
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He aint with me no more
He likes to hold my hand in public
He aint with me he aint with me
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
He aint with me

Fortunate Son
Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, theyre red, white and blue
And when the band plays hail to the chief
They point the cannon right at you
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no senators son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord they dont help themselves
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no millionaires son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them how much should we give ?
They only answer more! more! more!
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no militarys son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate one, no no
It aint me, it aint me

Aint Love Strange
Wel l, it can get you in the back boy
Or you can lie around in roses
Or maybe walk around wonderin
You know, goin through the motions
Hey aint love strange?
Hey aint love strange?
Boy talk about changes
Aint love strange?
cause it can make you string barb-wire
Around your little piece of ground
For emotional protection
Oh, but its too late now
Hey aint love strange?
Hey aint love strange?
Boy talk about changes
Aint love stra nge?
Some keep tryin it, giving and denying it
And I dont know why it is I guess you never quit
Tryin to make sense of it
cause it can feel like perfection,
But never all the time
And you dont wanna be alone again
Oh my, my

There a light
A certain kind of light
I want my whole life to be
To live it with you
Live it with you
Theres a way
Everybody says
Do each and every little thing
What good does it bring
If I aint got you if I aint got you
I aint got you I aint got you
You dont know
What its like
Baby you dont
What its like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you
In my brain
See your face again
I know my frame of mind
You aint got to be so blind
And Im blind so blind
Im a woman
Cant you see what I am
I live and I breathe for you
What good does it do
If I aint got you if I aint got you

Poor Boy
(words & music by vera matson - elvis presley)
They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I aint lonesome and I aint blue
cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as Ive got a dolly like you
Aint got a crust, aint got a cent
Cant buy a jug, cant pay the rent
I got a heartfull of dreams
And a lot of memories
And thats enough for me
Cant buy a house, cant buy a lot
Aint got a bean, I aint got a pot
But what I got is a heartfull of
Love and memories
And thats enough for me
Dont have a pig, dont have a cow
I dont have a horse to pull a plow
But what I got is a heartfull of
Love and memories
And thats enough for me

Has Anybody Here Seen Hank
I aint here for to do any business
(I got nobody special to thank/Im not looking for glory or thanks)
Im trying to find
A friend of mine
Has anybody here seen hank
Well hes sure to be wearing a stetson
Hes as long and as thin as a plank
Hes got a fistful of charm
And a gun beneath his arm
Has anybody here seen hank
Now he aint in the back of a limo
And he aint in his bed
He aint in jail
He aint out on bail
He aint getting out of his head
I dont care what he did with his women
I dont care what he did when he drank
I want to hear just one note
From his lonesome old throat
Has anybody here seen hank
Has anybody here, has anybody here
Has anybody here seen hank

See the noose still swinging
Feeling tounge tied
And Ill nver sop falling
Waste of my time
And the girls start stalling
Dont wake me up

Sleep walking dry
Got everybody saking

With snakeskin upholstery
Charge account at goldblatz
But I aint got you
I got a closet full of clothes
And no matter where I goes
You keeps a ring in my nose
But I aint got you
I got a tavern, a liquor store
I play the numbers, 444
I got mojo dont you know
Im all dressed up with no place to go
I got women to the right of me
I got women to the left of me
I got women all around me

If Walls Could Talk
(bobby miller)
Well, if things could talk then Im sure youd hear
A lot of things to make you cry my dear
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
Aint you glad [glad]
Glad that things dont talk
Now, if shoes could tell where theyve been
When you say youve been visiting a friend
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
He-he-hey, aint you glad [aint you glad]
But aint you glad [glad]
Glad that shoes dont talk
Now, if doors could tell whos turned the knob
When hes away out on his job
If cars could tell whos been inside
And whos been taking you out for a ride
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
But aint you glad [glad]
Glad that cars dont talk
In a world of trouble Id be
If things ever told on me
My whole life would be through
cause Im guilty, how about you ?
If things ever talk that way
Aint no telling what they might say
Aint you glad [aint you glad]
Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
Aint you glad [glad]

Say a word for jimmy brown
He aint got nothing at all
Not a shirt right of his back
He aint got nothing at all
And say a word for ginger brown
Walks with his head down to the ground
Took the shoes right of his feet
To poor boy right out in the street
And this is what he said
Oh sweet nuthin
She aint got nothing at all
Oh sweet nutin
She aint got nothing at all
Say a word for polly may
She cant tell the night from the day
They threw her out in the street
But just like a cat she landed on her feet
And say a word for joanna love
She aint got nothing at all
cos everyday she falls in love
And everynight she falls when she does
She said
Oh sweet nuthin
You know she aint got nothing at all
Oh sweet nutin
She aint got nothing at all
Oh let me hear you!
Say a word for jimmy brown
He aint got nothing at all
Not a shirt right of his back

A Song For The Life
(rodney crowell)
I dont drink as much as I used to
cos lately that just aint my style.
And the hard times dont hurt like they oughta
They pass quickly like when I was a child.
And lately Ive learnt how to listen
To a sound like the sun going down
In the magic that morning is bringing
Theres a song for the life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
Now the midsummer days aint so heady
They just drift like a breeze through my mind.
And nothing appears in a hurry
As if to make up for some old long-lost time
And lately Ive learnt how to listen
To a sound like the sun going down
In the magic that morning is bringing
Theres a song for the friends I have found
They keep my feet on the ground...
They keep my feet on the ground...
They keep my feet on the ground

I Aint Living Long Like This
I aint living long like this
Rodney crowell
You looked for trouble and you found it son
Straight down the barrel of a lawmans gun
Youd try to run but you dont think you can
You make one move and youre dead man, friend
I aint living long like this
I cant live at all like this, can I baby
He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back
Then he left me freezing on a steel rail track
They got em all in the jailhouse, aint they baby
I aint living long like this
Grew up in houston off of wayside drive
Son of a car hop in some all night dive
Dad drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember was a drunk mans breath
I aint living long like this
I cant live at all like this can I baby
We know the story how the wheel goes round
Dont let em take you to the man downtown
Cant sleep at all in the jailhouse, baby
I aint living long like this
You live for angel, shes a roadhouse queen
Make texas ruby look like sandra dee
You want to love her but you dont know how
Youre at the bottom of the jailhouse now
I aint living long like this
I cant live at all like this, can I baby
You know the story bout the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it, but just dont get caught
They got em all in the jailhouse, aint they baby

But the good old days have gone
The image and the empire may be falling apart
The money has gotten scarce
One mans word held the country together
But the truth is getting fierce
Say it aint so, joe, please, say it aint so
