One Fine Day
Shes standing by the waterside, shes waiting for her man
On the evening wind, she hears the whistle blow
Its coming from the factory, she hears it every day
Her soft cheeks flush, hes on his way
Theyre going where the sun is shining
Theyre going for that silver lining
Theyre gonna work and make it pay
And she say mmm, well, one fine day
Spread those wings, fly away
Now I dont lie, no, cold wind and rain
Gonna sail away one fine day
Now hope, it springs eternally
At least thats what they say
Boy, it gets hard to feel that way
When he sees his little darling hide
The tear with a smile
He say come here baby, now dont you cry

They Dont Make em Like They Used To
Its every young boys fancy
Its there hidden deep in the heart of a man
Its just a feeling
They wont ever understand
They know they gotta have one
A brand new model and its here today
And dont you know that shes made right here in the u.s.a.
(chorus)
Dont ever stop trying
Dont let her get away
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
Keeps you coming back for more
Shes a home grown beauty
Shes born and raised with a mind of her own
And once you find her
Youll never want to leave her alone
Shes making you crazy
You cant live without her, shes here to stay
Dont you know that she lives right here in the u.s.a.
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before
Im so tired of hearing--(Im so tired)
Some people say--(what people say)
Everything is moving much too fast
Things were better in the good old days
Let them have their opinions--(let them have...)
Never gonna change their mind--(theyll never change)
They lived a long time ago
When times were tough
And a real good woman was hard to find
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
That keeps you coming back for more
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before

Shes Famous Now
Ive got the measles and she got the mumps
Im sick of waiting by the door in case she comes home
You wont believe it but dont you want to know
I let her go but I cant let her go
I dont wanna hear it
Im singin too high tonight, Im gonna lose my voice
I heard her on the radio dont want to sing along, but Ive got no choice
She used to be my girl but now shes famous (shes famous now)
She used to be my girl but now she is famous (shes famous now)
She was just so sweet and now theyre fallin at her feet
She used to be my girl but now shes-
I eat the muscle and she eats the leaves
High cholesterol and heart disease yea
Youll never touch the way that I feel
Just for the record she got the deal
I dont wanna hear it
Im saying goodbye tonight, I just cant stand the noise
Shes signin autographs, dont wanna say I know her but Ive got no choice
She used to be my girl but now shes famous (shes famous now)
She used to be my girl but now shes famous (shes famous now)
She was just so sweet and now theyre fallin at her feet
She used to be my girl but now shes-
Well shes like me, just not as ugly
She used to be my girl but now shes famous (shes famous now)
She used to be my girl but now shes-
She was just so sweet
She was just so sweet
She was just so sweet and now theyre fallin at her feet
She used to be my girl but now shes-
Famous now

Kill Your Sons
All your two-bit psychiatrists
Are giving you electroshock
They said, theyd let you live at home with mom and dad
Instead of mental hospitals
But every time you tried to read a book
You couldnt get to page 17
cause you forgot where you were
So you couldnt even read
Dont you know theyre gonna kill your sons
Dont you know gonna kill, kill your sons
Theyre gonna kill, kill your sons
Until they run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run away
Mom informed me on the phone
She didnt know what to do about dad
Took an axe and broke the table
Arent you glad youre married
And sister, she got married on the island
And her husband takes the train
Hes big and hes fat
And he doesnt even have a brain
Theyre gonna kill your sons
Dont you know theyre gonna kill, kill your sons
Dont you know theyre gonna kill, kill your sons
Until they run away
Creedmore treated me very good
But paine whitney was even better
And when I flipped out on phc
I was so sad, I didnt even get a letter
All of the drugs, that we took
It really was lots of fun
But when they shoot you up with thorizene on crystal smoke
You choke like a son of a gun
Dont you know theyre gonna kill your sons
Dont you know theyre gonna kill, kill your sons
Dont you know theyre gonna kill, kill your sons
Until they run, run, run, run, run, run, run away

The Honey Roll
Honey roll over and lettuce on top
Strap you to the bed, and make you rock
Run it up the flag, send it on home
Push you to the wall, and make you moan
Shes mine, take what I want
Get what I need, dont take it all
Dont you hide, gonna blow my mind
Cmon taste it honey cause she feel fine
Chorus:
She turn it on, upside down
She turn me on, inside out
She turn it on, all around
She turn me on, she turn it on
Baby bend over, touch your toes
She take over, the bomb explodes
A rockin rollercoaster, flyin off the top
Take you high diving, off the long drop
Shes mine, take what I want
Get what I need, dont take it all
Dont you hide, gonna blow my mind
Cmon taste it honey cause she feel fine

Aint Going Down
(til the sun comes up)
Six oclock on friday evening
Momma doesn t know shes leaving
til she hears the screen door slamming
Rubber squealin, gears a-jamming
Local country station just a blaring on the radio
Pick him up at seven and theyre headin to the rodeo
Mommas on the front porch screamin out her warning
Girl you better get your red head
Back in bed before the morning.
Nine oclock the show is ending
But the fun is just beginning
She knows hes anticipating
But shes gonna keep him waiting
Grab a bite to eat
And then theyre heading to the honkey tonk
But loud crowds and line dancing
Just aint what they really want
Drive out to the boondocks and park down by the creek
And where its george strait til real late
And dancing cheek to cheek.
(chorus)
Aint going down til the sun comes up
Aint givin in til they get enough
Going round the world in a pickup truck
Aint goin down til the sun comes up
Ten til twelve is wine and dancing
Midnight starts the hard romancing
One oclock that truck is rocking
Two is coming, still no stopping
Break to check the clock at three
Theyre right on where they want to be
Four oclock get up and going
Five oclock that roosters crowing
*chorus*
Six oclock on saturday
Her folks dont know hes on his way
The stalls are clean, the horses fed
They say shes grounded til shes dead
Well here he comes around the bend
Slowing down, shes jumping in
Hey mom, youre daughters gone
And there they go again

Girl Cant Help It
If he could hold her, so close in his arms...again
If she could show him
The letter her heart forgot to send...why
Theyre livin dreams on their own
Ooh theyll never stop running
The girl cant help it, she needs more
He hasnt found what hes lookin for
Theyre still standing in the rain
He cant help it, and shes just that way
And when he calls her
She tells him that she still cares
Under the moonlight,
He wonders why she cant be there...why
Why do they go on alone
When theyre missin each other
The girl cant help it, she needs more
He hasnt found what hes lookin for
Theyre still standing in the rain
He cant help it, and shes just that way
The girl cant help it, she needs more
He hasnt found what hes lookin for
Theyre still standing in the rain
He cant help it, and shes just that way
Theres a fire
Ooh theres a fire in his eyes for you
Dont you know she still cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you
Fire
Ooh theres a fire in his eyes for you
For you she cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you
Fire
Ooh theres a fire in his eyes for you
Ooh nothing stands between love and you

Id Rather Ride Around With You
(mark d. sanders, tim nichols)
My cousins gettin married at the methodist church
Thats why I stayed home from work
Im supposed to hold the flowers
When the new bride kisses the groom
Thats what Im supposed to do
So what are we doin with the windows rolled down
Twenty five passionate miles from town
Oh I love her like a sister baby but to tell you the truth
Id rather ride around with you
The guy shes gonna marrys got money to burn
His daddys a partner in some big law firm
Yeah thats how theyre goin
To hawaii on their honeymoon
First class to honolulu
Shes never even set foot on a jet
Im a little bit jealous I confess
Id like to fly to hawaii
But honey if I had to choose
Oh Id rather ride around with you
I dont care where this road goes
No I dont wanna turn around
Let go of the wheel feel the wind blow
Dont even think about slowin down
Theyre tyin tin cans to the back of the car
Wonderin where in the world we are
The preachers done prayin
And the couples sayin I do
That could be me and you
Theres way too many decisions to make
The length of the dress
The layers on the cake
Oh one of these days I might get married too
But Id rather ride around with you

Maybe
Maybe far away or maybe real nearby
He maybe pouring her coffee
She maybe straightenin his tie
Maybe in a house or hidden by a hill
Shes sittin playin piano
Hes sittin payin the bills
Betcha theyre young
Betcha theyre smart
Bet theyre collecting like ashtrays and art
Betcha theyre good why shouldnt they be
Their one mistake was givin up me
So maybe now its time
And maybe when Im wake
Theyll be there calling me baby, maybe
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe shes made me a closet of clothes
Maybe theyre straight as straight as a line
Dont really care as long as theyre mine
So maybe now this prayer
The last one of its kind
Wont you please and get your baby

Brother Where You Bound
Theres a red cloud hanging over us
And its so big and its gonna burst
All you people with your heads in the ground
Hey brother, where you bound?
And theyre no good and theyre everywhere
Try to tell you, but you just dont care
Try to hear you but you dont make a sound
Hey brother, where you bound?
Hey brother, where you bound?
And you dont know what theyre gonna do
And you dont know how they feel
And you dont know what theyre tellin you
Is it a lie or is it real
And the next thing that you know is
That they walk out on the deal
And the message that theyre giving you
Is the same old alibi
If you dont quite see their point of view
Then they treat you like a spy
And the phone rings and you disappear
In the middle of the night
Cant you see theyre on the move
Dont know what youre trying to prove
But you sit there oh so cool
Like they never broke no rules
And the cat flies and the crow walks
And the ghost dies and the sow talks
And they tell us that theyll be good as gold
Blieve nothing that youre told
Hey brother, wheres your soul?
Make a move in one direction
Try to make some compromise
But they greet you with rejection
Makin out youre tellin lies
Then they turn around and tell you
Better get down from the sky
For the sake of all thats holy
Listen good to what I say
I can feel them all around me
They could be here any day
But you act like you dont know me
Why d you look at me that way
If theres one thing that is clear
We gotta get away from here
Weve gotta leave this place
Its just a hopeless case
Aint no one else to blame
Were gonna lose this game
Hey brother get off my back
I gotta tell you, youre way off the track
They got a hatred deep down inside
Aint gonna let them take me alive
Im gonna burn them down, just wait and see
Aint gonna let them walk over me
Boy you aint got no heart and soul
And your mind is weak and your bloods runnin cold
You better move, you better hide
Theyre gettin in, theyre gettin inside
If you get caught you better know
Theyre gonna reap, youre gonna sow
Dont be a fool, we gotta go
Aint no place safe for us to stay
We better move on, we better move on

The Ballad Of John Yoko
Standing on the dock at southampton
Trying to get to holland or france
The man in the mac
Said, youve gotta go back
You know, they didnt even give us a chance
Christ, you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me
Finally made the plane into paris
Honeymooning down by the seine
Peter brown called to say
You can make it okay
You can get married in gibraltar, near spain
Christ, you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me
Drove from paris to the amsterdam hilton
Talking in our beds for a week
The newspeople said
Say, whatre you doing in bed?
I said, were only trying to get us some peace
Christ, you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me
Made a lightning trip to vienna
Eating chocolate cakes in a bag
The newspapers said
Shes gone to his head
They look just like two gurus in drag
Christ, you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me
Caught the early plane back to london
Fifty acrons tied in a sack
The men from the press
Said, we wish you success
Its good to have the both of you back
Christ, you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me
The way things are going
Theyre gonna crucify me

In the morning,
She is waiting,
Waiting for the ship to sail,
Sail away.
Her papa go to war.
He gonna fight,
But he dont know what for.
Her papa go to war
Her mama say one day hes gonna come back from far away.
Help me.
How can you help me?
In the evening,
She is waiting,
Waiting for her man to come.
And take her by her hand.
And take her to this promise land.
Shes a pretty face,
But at the wrong time and at the wrong place.
Shes a pretty face.

Shes a refugee.

Rant & Rave
Im gonna rant and rave
Im gonna lose control if they get me mad
Im staring at the tv screen
Theyre staring right back
I got a bottle in my hand
I think Ill blow them up
Im gonna weep and wail
Im gonna gnash my teeth
At the lies they tell
And half the people in the world
Dont even know where they are
Dont even know theyre being had
Im gonna wake them up
(believe me youll find out
That everythings rotten
From bottom to top through and through
All gold is just glitter
All gains are ill-gotten
But now what the hell do we do . . .)
Im gonna scream and shout
Im gonna stamp my feet
til a policeman comes
I dont care what they say
Dont care what they write down
Book of rules or book of life
Im gonna tear them up
(now who wants to be just
A bug that they trample
Well you see what has happened of course
cause instead of using the force of example
Now its just the example of force . . .)

Tv Movie
I woke up last night shaking from a dream
For in that dream I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great american novel, you see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Chorus:
Well now, its one two three you take the money
Yeah its as easy as a b c
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Well they can change my name or they can leave it
They can change my story too
Or they can make me black or chinese
And do things that I never did do
Theyre gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when its over, what I did there will be what I done
Now I dont want my name in a history book
Nobodys ever gonna see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
(chorus)
Well Im a shoe-in for a sponsor
Goodyear blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
Well I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Now I dont want no inscription on my gravestone
No long soliloquy
No theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me

Killing Time
See that long line of people who keep standing in the rain
Lookin tired, gettin cold
And that signal light theyre waiting for, dont ever seem to chang
Killing time, aint it slow.
Watch them bending with the burden of the pennies that they save
Marking time, growin old
Slowly marching by the numbers to the freedom of the grave
Killing time, aint it slow
Thats the closest thing to living that theyre ever gonna know
And their good times aint no better than their bad
cause they think they need a signal light to tell them they can go
Killing time, aint it sad.
Dont feel sorry for those people who keep standing in the rain
They dont mind, they dont know
cause it never crossed their minds they got a reason to complain
Killing time, aint it slow.
Theyre not haunted by the visions that they never dared to see
And theyll never miss the dreams theyve never had
Theyre condemned to go on living in a penitentiary
For killing time, aint it sad.

I know Im growin tired and I feel it, yeah
And the song that I sing when the notes begin to ring
Its hard for my head to get into the melody, yeah
Day to day, I tell you
Day by day
I see faces all around me
When they start to smile
I just stop for a while
And I say baby let me love you
A small town store with an old wooden floor
The old man inside sellin dry goods
Has a smile on his face
Dont you know thats hard to replace
I bet hes gonna live to be a hundred, yeah
Day to day, I tell you
Day by day
I see faces all around me
When they start to smile
I just stop for a while
And I say baby let me love you
Summer is hot and the winter is cold
People all doin just what theyre told
Its too bad, its too sad
Thinkin for yourself is a hard thing to do
Well, dont you know theyre depending on you
To see them through, yeah
To see them through
Its the only thing you can do
You know you got to see them through
Shinin my light like a candle so bright
Show me the way to my future, yeah
With your hand on my face
Take me far from this place
Honey, Ill be the key to your heavenly door
Hear me, baby, calling to you now
Dont you know now baby, well, theyre countin on you
See me, baby, reachin for you

No Way Out
Cant you see Im shaking in my shoes
Ive done everything but I still got the blues
Everywhere I turn theres misery
Stuck in the middle of nowhere street
Go away come back where ya goin
Dont do that, do this, dont you blow it
Run dont walk, shout dont talk about it
You dont know anything about it
Its no good theres no way out

A fine affair and theres no doubt
Theres no doubt
That theres no way out, no way out
She left some money in a paper sack
And a note to say she aint coming back
Its no good theres no way out
A fine affair and theres no doubt
But theres no way out, no way out
Theyre coming at me from everywhere
They say shes already gone from here
Go away come back where ya goin
