No Place To Go
Written by chester burnett.
How many more year - have you got to wreck my life
How many more year - have you got to wreck my life
Well, the way you done me, gonna wreck my life
How many more time - you gonna treat me like you do
How many more time - you gonna treat me like you do
You spend all my money, all my lovin too
Now Im old and grey - got no place to go
Now Im old and grey - got no place to go
You got yourself a youngster, you cant stand me no more

Another New year, Another New Beginning?
Another new year!
Another new beginning?
Will we get this one right?
Will we have learned from the last one?
Will we treat our kids better?
Will they be healthier and better educated?
Will we be more prudent, save more money?
Will we even have a job?
Will we keep the one we have?
Are we gonna stop smoking?
Are we gonna start dieting?
Are we gonna start exercising?
Are we gonna stop watching so much TV?
Are we gonna walk more and stop so much driving?
Will we help someone who has less?
Will we be thankful for what we have?
Will we renounce war?
Will we live a little longer?
Will we want to?
Are we gonna venerate our elderly?
Are we gonna respect others?
Are we gonna forget about someone’s color?
Are we gonna be friendly?
Will we give hugs whenever we can?
Will we read more?
Will we try to learn something new?
Will we vote this year?
Will we act as Christians even if we’re not religious?
Will we try to buy American made products?
Are we and Will we
There’s a lot more I’m sure you could add
Will you, or are you going to be doing any of these this year?
They’re all desirable, most require little money or effort.
They’re truly things that you can do…for you and for others.
Another new year!
Another new beginning?

That Womans Gonna Break Your Heart
(lynott)
Lonesome gambler
That woman will lead to heartbreaks
Take the word of one
Who played and lost in love
I played it cool
I dealt the heartaches
I broke rules
But that woman she cut me up
That womans gonna break your heart
That womans gonna tear your soul apart
That womans gonna wreck your head
That womans gonna leave you sad, so sad
If your life depends
On what you are losing
Youre still refusing
To believe in fate or chance
You dont know now
But its the wrong card youre using
That deck youre using
Is stacked against romance
That womans gonna break your heart
That womans gonna tear your soul apart
That womans gonna wreck your head
That womans gonna leave you sad, so sad

Here Come The People In Grey
I got a letter this morning with serious news thats gone and ruined my day,
The borough surveyors used compulsory purchase to acquire my domaine,
Theyre gonna pull up the floors, theyre gonna knock down the walls,
Theyre gonna dig up the drains.
Here come the people in grey theyre gonna take me away to lord knows where,
But Im so unprepared I got no time to pack and I got nothing to wear,
Here come the people in grey,
To take me away.
Me and my babys gonna get on a train thats gonna take us away,
Im gonna live in a tent, were gonna pay no more rent were gonna pay no more rates,
Were gonna live in a field, were gonna buy me gun, to keep the policemen away.
Im gonna pass me a brand new resolution,
Im gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway,
Gonna beat those people in grey,
But here come the people in grey,
To take me away.
The people in grey have gone and taken away my right to voice my complaint,
Her majestys government have sent me a form I must complete it today.
But its making me blue, dont wanna tell all my secrets to
The people in grey.
Im gonna pass me a brand new resolution,
Im gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway,
Gonna start my rebellion today.
But here come the people in grey,
To take me away.
Oh, lord, those people in grey,
I gotta get back at those people in grey,
Here come the people in grey,
To take me away.

The Great American Success Story
He was born in a depressed nation
Started tough and worked his way right off the street
Thumbed his nose at a graduation
Wheeled and dealed, his education was complete
He's got all his hair, but his life is a wreck
Always been a brat, he don't get no respect
He's got the time, he's got the money
You better get out of his way
You better watch out for him, sonny
Back to school
He's gonna take that plunge
Gonna jump back in there
Back to school
He's gonna shape his mind
Gonna shed old skin there
Back to school
Spent some time in appreciation of finer arts
And the human body mysteries
Scoring high in procreation
Got an 'A' in the study of female anatomy
He thinks about his teacher in his literary class
He's staring at her legs
But he's dreaming 'bout her face
He's got the time
He's got the money
You better get out of his way
You better watch out for him, sonny
Back to school
He's gonna take that plunge
Gonna jump back in there
Back to school
He's gonna shape his mind
Gonna shed old skin there
Back to school

And youll be the one with the most to lose tonight

Shes Gonna Love Me
Shes gonna love me like you never could
Shes gonna treat me like you never would
Shes gonna love me live Ive never been loved before
You should have grabbed me when you had your chance
You got a little bit too big for your own leather pants
I could have told you from the start
No ones ever taken better care of your heart
Now your gone, I dont care
Ive got a woman who will always be there, and...
Shes gonna love me like you never could
Shes gonna treat me like you never would
Shes gonna love me like Ive never been loved before
Shes gonna spin me like a roulette wheel
Shes gonna treat me like Im her last meal
Shes gonna love me and I keep comin back for more
Ooh shes gonna love me
Ooh shes gonna love me
Shes gonna love me like her favorite hobby
Throw me down and love me in the hotel lobby
You figured Id just always be around
You thought we were so hot, you could have any boy in town
Baby Ive got some news for you
Ive got places to go and people to do
Yeah, I cried a little when you said good-bye
But now my eyes are filled with tears of joy, cus-
Shes gonna love me like you never could
Shes gonna treat me like you never would

I rode into town last night, it must've been a quarter to three
I was looking for a place to clash, have some company
I saw you baby, sitting at the end of the bar
Hey honey, won't you come home with me? Won't you jump into my car?
You're gonna gimme all of your lovin'
Need it night and day
You're gonna gimme all your sweet lovin'
Stop me slippin' away, yeah
Leaving in the morning, headed for Chicago town
Hey baby, you know I ain't gonna call ya, so don't follow me around
I guess we had a good time, could I paint the town
But for now I'll be on my way, oh next time around I'm gonna give ya
All your sweet lovin'
I need it night and day
You're gonna gimme all of your lovin'
Stop me slippin' away, oh whoa

Letter To A John
don't ask me why I'm crying
I'm not going to tell you what's wrong
I'm just gonna sit on your lap
for five dollars a song
I want you to pay me for my beauty
I think it's only right
'cause I have been paying for it
all of my life
I'm gonna take the money I make
I'm gonna take the money I make
I'm gonna take the money I make
and I'm gonna go away...
we barely have time to react in this world
let alone rehearse
and I don't think I'm better than you
but I don't think that I'm worse
women learn to be women
and men learn to be men
and I don't blame it all on you
but I don't want to be your friend
I'm gonna take the money I make
I'm gonna take the money I make
I'm gonna take the money I make
and I'm gonna go away...
I was eleven years old
he was as old as my dad
and he took something from me
I didn't even know that I had
so don't tell me about decency
don't tell me about pride
just give me something for my trouble
'cause this time

Don't Sqeeze Me Like Toothpaste
I treat you like a woman
So treat me like a man
I took you to a better place
And helped you understand

So don't squeeze me like toothpaste
Like putty in your hands
I'm gonna go away, I'm gonna blow away
A woman is a woman
And a man is just a fool
It takes all of the heartaches
And life can be so cruel

Who's gonna be there when the morning comes?
Head on the pillow, smiling at me
I get up and make the coffee
It must be love, it must be love
Who's gonna be there when the morning comes?
Head on the pillow, smiling at me

So treat me like a man

It Takes Time To Build
If you don't like the news then press eject
Baby Davis getting older can't take a rain check
It's time to let'em know what we expect
Stop building SUV's strung out on OPEC
Hold up wait up you know we come correct
You wanna change things up, well hey just get set
It's easier to sit back than stick out your neck
It's easier to break things than build it correct
We've got a president we didn't elect
The Kyoto treaty he decided to neglect
And still the US just wants to flex
Keep doin' that wop we gonna break our necks
It takes a second to wreck it
It takes time to build
You gots to chill
Hate filled people wanna keep us in check
Tearin' down each other is what they expect
If you want love well hey that's a bet
We've got to give before we can get
Waiting like a batter who is on deck
When it's time to wreck shop then shop I'll wreck
So let's calibrate and check our specs
We need a little shift on over towards the left
I don't really know but I suspect
I think it's due time that we inspect
How they get their information and their facts are checked
Another press conference someone's talking out their neck
It takes a second to wreck it
It takes time to build
You gots to chill
So step up to the window and place your bets
Is the US gonna keep breaking necks
Maybe it's time that we impeach Tex
And the military muscle that he wants to flex
By the time Bush is done what will be left
Selling votes like E-pills at the discotheque
Environmental destruction and the national dept
But plenty of dollars left in the fat war chest
What the real deal why you can't connect
Why you hating people that you never met
Didn't your mama teach you to show some respect?
Why not open your mind for a sec?
It takes a second to wreck it
It takes time to build
You gots to chill

I Used To Have Money One Time
I had Cadillac's in my future
Debutantes in my past
I made a deal with the devil for a whole lot of money
Thinkin' it would last and last
But a fool and his money are bound to part
And what goes up must come down
So take my advice, don't trust the roll of the dice
Keep your feet on solid ground
I used to have money one time
Life of adventure and crime
I used to have money one time
Lots of women and wine
But who's gonna tell a fool? Who's gonna tell a fool?
Who's gonna tell a fool? That he ain't cool
Now thems were hard times back in the eighties bous
People barely had enough to get by
But oh not me foot loose and fancy free
There was nothing to myself I'd deny
So fellas listen to my story now
Though you have heard this tale befo'
Take care of your needs and watch out for your greeds
Or that wolf will be at your door
I used to have money one time
Life of adventure and crime
I used to have money one time
Now I ain't got a dime
But who's gonna be the fool? Who's gonna be the fool?
Who's gonna be the fool? It still ain't cool.
Who's gonna tell a fool? Who's gonna tell a fool?
Who's gonna tell a fool? It still ain't cool.

Slip and stumble at my first defences
Its not treason, its no lie
You talk in paragraphs
I write my sentence
Its not treason, its no lie
It seems a place for us to dream
It seems a place for us to dream
Crush and crumble under your defenses
Its not treason, its no lie
You frame the photograph I sit on fences
Change your season, love can die
It seems a place for us to dream

Little Bit Of Lovin
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill treat you right
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill stay the night
Just like a gypsy I come to town
Ive been longin for that girl I left behind
I might be a fool yeah but come what may
Ive been lovin every minute everyday
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill treat you right
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill stay the night
I dont need nobody I stand alone
But theres a woman that I like to call my own
I aint got the money to make her shine
But Ive got plenty other ways to make her mine
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill treat you right
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill stay the night
You got to give me some lovin
Im gonna make you feel so good
Shes got a deadly eyes a twisted mind
Shes one in a million one of a kind
Cold chills runnin down to the bone
She gives me lovin like Ive never known
We tumble and roll til the break of day
Shes so wild blows my world away
With her theres nothin I wouldnt do
Baby weve got something to hold on to
Lay it down and its plain to see
The womans got the best of me
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill treat you right
Give a little bit of lovin and Ill stay the night

The Wreck of She
The Wreck of She, could be a ship,
that has been cast upon the shore,
but alas she is not, she's part of the street
a fancy English whore
The Wreck of She, has moved around
from war time trenches.
to Hyde Park benches,
down quite back alleys,
and seaside chalets.
Yet she was always there
when Tom came to call
then off they would go,
and have a ball.
The Wreck of She, was just like a night owl.
Out at dusk, and home at dawn,
with grass on her back,
from the golf course lawn.
The Wreck of She, was past her sell by date,
when she was found
crawling in the gate,
she was dazed and battered
but to her it never mattered,
she had been there before
and she knew the score.
The Wreck of She was just an old cat.
A Queen of the night
who never got laid, on a fireside mat

Thunder And Lightning
THUNDER AND LIGHTNING I thought it was love
That hurt so bad,
But all of this time I was a fool being had.
Now it's the last stop for you, baby,
On my gravy train.
Well, I don't understand
How I could be so short of memory,
How I could just leave my pride in the rain.
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobody's gonna wrap me 'round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Ain't gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
You played with my mind,
Baby, much too long.
You played with my head
Until all feelin' was gone.
Now I'm out of patience and money,
And my heart is numb.
You kept me in the dark,
But now I finally see some daylight.
I've got a chance.
I'm gonna run, baby, run.
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobody's gonna wrap me 'round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Ain't gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
Nobody's gonna pull this thing back together.
It's too far out of hand.
If you wanna give it one more try,
Try it with another man.
[Guitar Interlude]
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobody's gonna wrap me 'round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Ain't gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
