One Night A Day
Theres not a lot of things to do
I wouldnt rather do with you
Guess Im funny that way
Lately I just sit and stare
I talk to people who arent there
To get through one night a day.
(chorus)
One night a day
One step away
From leavin you behind
I sit up with the radio
Sing along with the ones I know
To get through one night a day.
*chorus*
Im callin every friend Ive had
Wake em up, and make em mad
Let em know that Im okay.
I used to sit and talk to you
Theyre all just a substitute
To get through one night a day.
*chorus*
I stay up with the late, late show
Just another way I know
To get through one night a day
To get through one night a day.

Late Night Radio
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the windsong album, and has also been released on the changes album.
Theres lonely hearts in arkansas
Theres truckers in des moines
All there to keep me company in the early morn
A world unknown to daytime
Is forever going on
The airwaves of the nation
Between midnight and the dawn
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio
Well I turn the dial
A little bit past one-o-one point two
In time to catch the news
And see whos shooting who
Then I hunt around for old songs
Theyre so good to hear again
To think of how it was
Imagine how it might have been
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio
La la la I sing along
cause I never know the words
La la la la la la la la
Id love to call a talk show
But I havent got the nerve
La la la oh oh oh radio
The lord is still my shepherd
But these preachers got to go
This time of night my interest
Lies in u.f.o.s
So I turn the dial a little
Past fifty-six point three
To find myself a lullaby
To rock me off to sleep
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio
Late night radio
Take it everywhere I go
My best friend when Im lonely
Is my late night radio

You Got Me

I'm afraid if momma only knew, it feels right
Chorus:
If you want me, you got me, and if you need me, you got me all night
And if you love me, you got me all night long

If you want me, you got me, and if you need me, you got me all night

So Serious
Night after night
I try to make it all fit together
Night after night
I see you as someone I remember
You took me by surprise
Opened up my eyes
Now we gotta talk this over.
Chorus:
Can it really be so serious?
To be all broken up and delirious
I guess weve really been out of touch
But can it really be so serious?
(serious, so serious)
Day after day
I know its not the way that you wanted it
Day after day
I try to find the key, but it dont fit
But you know how it is
No matter what I did
We gotta talk it over.
Repeat chorus
Tonight, tonight
Im thinking over everything you said to me
Tonight, tonight
Im sorry, but I just didnt see
And now its up to you
Theres nothing else to do
Weve gotta talk it over.

Serious, so serious
Is it so serious?

Every night its the same
I hear you callin my name
Youre lyin next to me
I give into your charms
You disappear in my arms
I realize its just a dream, but
Chorus:
Desperately, I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love
And now I
Shake the sleep from my head
And try to crawl out of bed

Pretend that everythings ok, but

And now I
Know theres no reason to smile
Its gonna take me awhile
Cause I still love you desperately

Watch the sun goin down
There aint nobody around

Another Saturday Night
Another saturday night
By: sam cooke
Chorus:
Another saturday night and I aint got nobody
Ive got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to

If I could meet em I could get em
But as yet I havent met em
Thats why Im in the shape Im in
Chorus:
Oh, another saturday night and I aint got nobody
Ive got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to

Instead of being my deliverance
She had a strange resemblance
To a cat name frankenstein

Wake Up
There's people talking
They talk about me
They know my name
They think they know everything
But they don't know anything, about me
(about me...)
Give me a dance floor
Give me a DJ
Play me a record
Forget what they say
'Cause I need to go
Need to getaway, tonight
(Tonight...)
[Bridge]
I put my makeup on a Saturday night
I try to make it happen
Try to make it alright
I know i make mistakes
I'm living life day to day
Its never really easy but its okay
(It's okay, okay...)
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up
On a Saturday night
Could be New York
Maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris, maybe Tokyo
There's something going on
Anywhere I go, tonight
tonight, yeah tonight
(Tonight..)
The city's restless
It's all around me
People, emotions, sick of all the same routines
And they need to go, they need to getaway, tonight
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
People all around you everywhere that you go
People all around you, they don't really know you
Everybody's watching like its some kind of show
Everybody's watching, they don't really know you now...
(They don't really know you, They don't really know you..)
And forever...
Wake up, wake up
(Wake up, wake up...)
Wake up, wake up

A Little Night Dancin'
Written by John Mellencamp
Well west of Zion
They got a hot spot brewing
Handcuffs and kisses
For the people who live there
Guitar player's playing
Cinderella saying
Hey boys get that spoon to my nose
And we'll run through the midnight air
CHORUS:
Night, night, whoa night dancin'
Hey just a little, little, little night dancin'
Night, night, whoa night dancin'
Hey just a little, little, little night dancin'
Sodom and Gomorah
They run the roadhouse
They keep everything jumping
As the drummer keeps the beat
And it's really something when those kids start bitchin'
Yeah it starts me itching
As I jump to my feet

She Wasnt Good Enough For Him
(dean dillon, leslie satcher)
She was good at late night listening
When hed call her on the phone
She was good to come and get him
When he couldnt make it home
She was good to make love to
And they did now and then
She was good to never ask
When hed be back again
Chorus:
She wasnt good enough for him
For his family or his friends
He kept her out there on a limb
Wouldnt let her go, wouldnt let her in
She wasnt good enough for him
She was there on his bad days
And for years he led her on
We all knew she had a bad case
He was doing her all wrong
She couldnt bring herself to do the right thing
Break it off and say goodbye
til she overheard him one night tellin
Somebody on the side that
Repeat chorus
She was good at late night listening
When hed call her on the phone

Late night driven by
Late night
And i´m sitting here
Watching the dark road pass me by
Trough the car window, there´s him
And then there´s me
Late night
And i´m sitting here
Thinking about the random things that cross my mind
Next to me, there´s him
And then there´s me
Late night
Driving trough the loneliness of the night
Watching my life before my eyes
There´s him and
Then there´s me
Late night
And the radio is the only thing
We can possibly hear at this moment
There´s him and then there´s me
This silence is striking
Late night
Tried falling asleep
There´s him
There´s me
I wonder if he knows that
There is you.

Late Night Mom
Late night mom
You know what to do
Doesn’t matter now
The monsters won’t say boo
You’re up so late
The moon’s asleep too
Late night mom
The kids worry
All night long
They wake up
And you’re passed out on the lawn
Late night mom
Knows just what to do
Your kid’s staying up late
To see what you’ll do
Thinking to herself
Why isn’t mommy in bed?
Late night mom is
Sleeping with the meds
Too close for comfort
A fire by the house
Smoking your cigarette
Thinking without a doubt
Late night mom
Is chilling in the house
Late night mom
Sleeping on the couch
Instead of in her bed
A cushion instead
Of a warm husband’s embrace
Late night mom
Passed out on the floor
Don’t wake the kids
You’re just asking for more
Around two or four
Dad will come out
And pick you up
While you pout
He’ll carry you over
To the room overhead
And help you climb
Slowly to bed

Did We Really Ever Try
(J.P. Maunick / M. Edwards)
Chorus:
Did we really ever try to understand each other?
Or was it just a game that sometimes people play?
Did we really ever see eye to eye, I wonder?
Was it just a game that sometimes people play?
[Sometimes people play]
I wonder if
We ever listened
To a word
That the other had to say
All that we shared
Our inner treasures
Are used against each other as we fall
Chorus
I wonder if
Before we started
We could have known
That the road would end this way
What makes us give
Our hearts so freely
Only to find that we're strangers after all
Chorus
Night and day, night and day, day and night
Night and day, people play, day and night
We fool ourselves
Into believing
Our difference will surely change in time
So we proceed
Blissfully blinded
Throwing caution to the wind along the way

Can't We Just Sit Down
Cold and lonely night, you don't have to leave at all
A car rolls up outside on time, a moment from your call
And handshake seems more fitting than a kiss
Such a shame that you and i should have to end like this
Can't we just sit down and talk it over
Surely you can ask the better way
Strange that you're the one so set on leaving
And i'm the one who said last night that it was all too late
Can't we just sit down and talk it over
Who knows, maybe in a little while
We'll forget our pride, and the things we said last night
And maybe you and i can talk it out
Tonight stay somewhere warm, they say it's gonna freeze
You may not find a place at all, so be sure and take your keys
I can almost taste the silence now
Does it really matter still,
Who was wrong, who let who down
Can't we just sit down and talk it over
Who knows, maybe in a little while
We'll forget our pride, and the things we said last night
And maybe you and i can talk it out
Hold on, hold on
Surely you and i can talk it out
Hold on, hold on
Surely you and i can make it right
Hold on, hold on, yeah
Can't we just sit down and talk it over
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on

Cuddled Up at Night!
vs.1 You would never find me sneakin' out,
'Cause I'd get in trouble, with no doubt.
You couldn't get me to go out too late,
'Cause there's no tellin' about my fate.
All of the above and the following is right,
You could only find me cuddled up at night.
(chorus)
Nobody knows that I seem to find
That you are always on my mind.
When people ask, I simply shake my head,
And wonder if I shoulda said,
That anything I usually say is right,
'Cause we all know I'm cuddled up at night.
vs.2 I would never disagree,
That someone out there is worse than me.
Other than that, I must confide,
Baby, there is nowhere you can hide.
I'm gonna tell you again, I'm right,
You could only find me cuddled up at night.
(chorus)
(piano/sax. solo-instrumental)
Bridge: Ohh, you'd think that I'd be wrong,
But that's not why I'm singin' this song.
Ohh, you'd think that I just might,
But I'mma be cuddlin' up tonight!

Yeahhh, you could only find
Me cuddled up at night!

I watch you as you wake and rub your eyes and try to hide them from the
Morning sun
I whisper how ya doing and you smile and say so tenderly good morning
Hun

Last night you made his memory fade a little
You helped me see how love can still be right
I wish you didnt have to leave
If you just knew how much I need
Last night, evry night
I know you have to catch a plane to memphis
And you mentioned its an early flight
You start to pack
And while I comb my hair
I stare at you and think about last night
Cause (repeat chorus)
I slip into my robe to go make coffee
You come in and pull me close to you
And as I feel your tender kiss
I whisper cant memphis wait a day or two
