Look Who's Back From Town
Those city lights drew you like a magnet
You were attracted to his high-falootin crowd
I begged you not to go, but you still packed up
Ive been expectin you
Oh, look whos back from town
My old truck could not compare to his Mercedes
Did it humble you when you rode back on that Greyhound
You picked a plastic rose and left a field of daisies
Ive been expectin you
Oh, look whos back from town
Chorus:
What brings you back to this part of the country
Well let me guess, ol loverboy let you down
Did he throw you away like his money
Ive been expectin you
Oh, look whos back from town
Repeat Chorus
Ive been expectin you
Oh, look whos back from town

Boys Are Back In Town
Guess who just got back today
Them wildout boys, that'd been away
Haven't changed, had much to say
But man I still think them cats are great
They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy
The Boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
(I Said) The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
You know that chic who used to dance a lot?
Every night she'd be on the floor, shaken what she got
Man when I tell you she was cool she was red hot
I mean she was steamin'
And that time over at Johnny's place
When this chic got up and slapped Johnny's face
Man we just fell about the place
What that chic don't wanna know forget 'er
The boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
(I said) The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
Guess who's back in town
You spread the word around
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drinks will flow and blood would spill
If the boys wanna fight you better let 'em
That kid rocks down at the corner blasting out my favourite song
The nights are getting warmer and won't be long
Wont be long till the summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
(Spread the word around)
The boys are back in town (The boys are back in town)
(The boys are back, the boys are back)
The boys are back in town again
They're hanging out at Dino's
The boys are back in town again

Motor City
My old car keeps breaking down
My new car aint from japan
Theres already too many datsuns
In this town.
Another thing thats bugging me
Is this commercial on tv
Says that detroit cant make good cars any more.
Motor city.
Whos driving my car?
Whos driving my car now?
Who?
My army jeep is still alive
Got locking hubs and four wheel drive
Aint got no radio, aint got no mag wheels
Aint got no digital clock
Aint got no clock.
The paint job is lookin blue
The white walls are missing too
But I guess until I get my car back
This will do.
Whos driving my car now?
Whos driving my car now?
Who?
Whos driving my car now?

Whos To Bless & Whos To Blame
If a cheated mans a loser
And a cheater never wins
And if beggars cant be choosers
til theyre weak and wealthy men
And the old keep gettin older
And the young must do the same
And its never gettin better
Whos to bless, and whos to blame
Chorus:
All the cards are on the table
You done laid your money down
Dont complain about your chances, boy
Its the only game in town
And the meaning doesnt matter
Nor the way you play the game
To the winner or the loser
Whos to bless, and whos to blame
Chorus:
Keep your hands above the table
And your back against the wall
Toss your chips in with your chances, boy
Let em lay the way they fall
Cause the moral doesnt matter
Broken rules are all the same
To the broken or the breaker
Whos to bless, and whos to blame

Night Of The Long Knives
Whos your leader, whos your man?
Who will help you fill your hand?
Whos your friend and whos your foe?
Whos your judas, you dont know?

Wheres that saviour, wheres that light
When youre praying for your life?
Whos that fighting back to back?
Whos defending whose attack?

Back Before The War
(dan hill, keith stegall, robin wiley)
Stacks of paper, my name in bold print
Yours right besides it on this document
Too many lawyers, too many angry words
So much we didnt say, so much we never heard
Do you remember
When I was all that you were living for
Back before the war
Chorus:
Back before the broken vows
The shattered trust, this empty house
When nothing really mattered but us
Back before we climbed too high
My dreams were yours, your dreams were mine
Back before we fell so out of touch
Back before the war
Childrens laughter trailing down the hall
Tiny footsteps, God how I miss it all
Its not as simple as whos right and whos to blame
How could we fly so high to be shot down in flames
Do you remember
When you were all that I was living for
Back before the war
Repeat chorus
Stacks of paper, I guess this is where we sign
Strange how your signature so closely matches mine
I never dreamed our love would ever come to this
Avoiding each others eyes still craving your tenderness
Do you remember
When love was all that we were living for
Back before the war
Back before the war

Stranger In Town
I remember it was late one night
In the middle of a dream
Woke up in a pool of sweat
Thought I heard a scream
Ran over to the window sill
Stuck my head out for a peek
Dressed in black was a man I didnt recognise
Running down my back street
My heart skipped a beat
Chorus (2x):
You better watch out, theres a stranger in town
You better watch out when he comes around
Dont make a sound
The morning paper and the head-lines read:danger to the queen
Buckingham palace better tighten things up
The son of a bitch is mean.
Vendors on the corner just doin their job
Acting like nothings new
Scotland yards still looking for him
But he doesnt leave
A single clue
Chorus (2x)
You better watch out..
Whos this man who fell out of the sky?
Whats he done and wheres he live?
How can a man whos a criminal be a hero to the kids?
The old couple swear that the ripers back
They say its him all right.
The young girl says its jesus and he wont be back again
Tonight
I wonder whos right ?
Chorus
You better watch out...

Christmas For Every Boy & Girl
Verse one
The roar of his laughter is widely renown
A distinct ho-ho-ho as he goes town to town
The number of kids is sure to astound
Its many the chimney that hell shimmy down
He knows whos been bad and whos good
And hed empty that bag out if only he could
Chorus
When hes loading his sleigh and hes making the rounds
Therell be many a rooftop that wont hear the sound
Of the reindeers hooves stomp and st. nick touches down
When he wraps up a package of peace for the world
Therell be christmas for every boy and girl
Verse two
How many children are watching the sky
For a chance to see rudolphs red nose glowing by
And how many lay listening with sleep in their eyes
And visions of patriots crossing the sky
He knows whos asleep and awake
And that promise wont keep if its for goodness sake

My Little Town
Words & music by paul simon
In my little town
I grew up believ--ing
God keeps his eye on us all
And he used to lean upon me
As I pledged allegiance to the wall
Lord I recall
My little town
Coming home after school
Flying my bike past the gates
Of the factories
My mom doing the laundry
Hanging our shirts
In the dirty breeze
And after it rains
Theres a rainbow
And all of the colors are black
Its not that the colors arent there
Its just imagin-ation they lack
Everythings the same
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
In my little town
I never meant nothin
I was just my fathers son
Saving my money
Dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger
On the trigger of a gun
Leaving nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Repeat and fade:
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

Whos The Blonde Stranger
Whos the blonde stranger
By: jimmy buffett, michael utley, will jennings, josh leo
1984
Nothin like this way out in west texas
Galveston bay is a whole other world
My wifes in our room gettin over her sunburn
How would louis lamour get me next to that girl
She tells me her tan is the same all over
She asks me to dance and says keep your boots on
She never met a number one cowboy
We rolled in the sand and drank rum until dawn
Chorus:
Whos the blonde stranger, who entered my life
Makin me over, in the moonlight
This side of texas, is all new to me
Whos the blonde stranger, who lives by the sea
Stayed up all night and for me thats the first time
Sneak in the room just as cool as I can
Pull back the sheets and the bed is all empty
Except for a note left from some guy named dan
My head got all light and the room started spinning
I stepped outside just to get some fresh air
Out on a wave was my own darlin lola
And some pretty boy with bleach in his hair
Chorus:
Whos the blonde stranger, out there with my wife
What were they doin, in the moonlight
This side of texas, is all new to me
Who are these strangers, who live by the sea
Back on the ranch and everythings normal
Beach blanket bingo comes on the tv
We talk in our sleep and then the next morning
I ask her whos dan and she says whos marie?
Chorus:
Whos the blonde stranger, who entered my life
Makin me over, in the moonlight
This side of texas, is all new to me
Whos the blonde stranger, lives by the sea
Chorus:
Whos the blonde stranger, who entered my life
Makin me over, in the moonlight
This side of texas, is all new to me
Who are these strangers, who live by the sea

Take Me Back To The Country
Well this big city life is gettin me down
Theres just too many people around
Theres dirt in the air and crime in the street
High-rise buildings and cold concrete
This rat race sure enough takes a toll
I wanna run off to my fishin hole
Take me back take me back
Take me back to the country
Take me back take me back
Take me back to the country
Chorus:
Where the stars at night
Outshine those city lights
Take me back to the country
Where the eagles fly
And the treetops touch the sky
Take me back to the country
This traffic jam is makin me mad
I miss the simple life I had
Peace and quite runnin free
I wanna go home to my family
Im sick of the clock, sick of the phone
Out in the country my times my own
Take me back take me back
Take me back to the country
Take me back take me back
Take me back to the country

Where the stars at night
Outshine those city lights
Take me back to the country
Where the eagles fly
And the treetops touch the sky

Memories
Im looking out as the world goes by
All the sadness lover we tried
It used to be you held me near
I felt your touch now Im holding back my tears
Well I look back
And I close my eyes
To the blame and the heartache
That we left behind
Wont you take me
Im falling
I cant stop from loving you
Chorus
You were my world
And all that was real
Now the memories
Are all I have to live for
You made me feel
The joy and the pain
All the memories
I dont want to see fade away
Every day life is just the same
Looking in the mirror trying tp put on a face
Of someone whos happy someone whos strong
But deep down inside me I know I was wrong
Cause you gave me more
Than youll ever know
And I was such a fool to let you go
So wont you come back
Im sorry
Im standing here calling you
Chorus
If I could see you
Baby Id hold on forever
Cause times made me realize
We need to be together
So wont you come back
Im sorry
Im standing here calling
Take me Im falling
I cant stop from loving you

London Town
I do believe
I must believe
I think I can begin again
Become again the man I was back when
So Im walking on your streets again
Feeling now as I did then
Ive since become a different man
London town, turn be around
London town, carry me back
O london town, lost and found
And I feel like going back
I can remember lots of time and space
If I lose the name, still I know the faces
Time as come and left its traces
London town, turn be around
London town, carry me back
O london town, lost and found
And I feel like going back
When I grew too old and dull to rock n roll
Like to hold on tight to you darling
And when my fires have all burned out
Id like to think I can still think about
The things I used to sing about
When I was spending all my time alone
By myself and on my own
Seldom seen and quite unknown
London town, turn be around
London town, carry me back
O london town, lost and found
And I feel like going back

Dont Back Down
The girls dig the way the guys get all wiped out
With their feet in the air you can hear em shout
Theyre not afraid (dont back down, dont back down)
Not my boys (dont back down, dont back down)
They grit their teeth, (a-oo) they dont back down
Dont back down
You gotta be a little nuts
Dont back down
But show em now whos got guts
Dont back down
Dont back down from that wave
With their feet full of tar and their hair full of sand
The boys know the beach like the palm of their hand
Theyre not afraid (dont back down, dont back down)
Not my boys (dont back down, dont back down)
They grit their teeth (a-oo) they dont back down
Dont back down
You gotta be a little nuts
Dont back down
But show em now whos got guts
Dont back down
Dont back down from that wave
When a twenty-footer sneaks up like a ton of lead
And the crest comes along and slaps em upside the head
Theyre not afraid (dont back down, dont back down)
Not my boys (dont back down, dont back down)
They grit their teeth (a-oo) they dont back down
Dont back down
You gotta be a little nuts
Dont back down
But show em now whos got guts
Dont back down
Dont back down from that wave
Dont back down...

Whatsername
Unforgettable face, I cant think of her name
Its on the edge of my tongue, gathering dust in the back of my brain
Something bout the way she ignores me thats vaguely familiar
Makes you wonder what it was you ever did to thrill her
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again
I never felt the need to soothe her savage breast
She never felt obliged to tell me of her change of address
Caught me on a downward swing but I fell through her arms
How could I be so careless, I never meant to go so far
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again
Oh shes back in town
Oh shes back in town
Im not leaving
Im running away
She took it all away, now shes back for the rest
Took it all so easy, wouldnt settle for less
She doesnt know what she wants but she knows how to get it
I cant remember the time, she never let me forget it
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again
Oh whatsernames back in town
Shes back in town
Im not leaving
Im running away
Oh shes back in town
Oh shes back in town
Im not leaving

I Use To Have Money One Time
I use to have money one time
By: jimmy buffett, michael utley
1983
For harrison and hunter
I had cadillacs in my future
Debutantes in my past
I made a deal with the devil for a whole lotta money
Thinkin it would last and last
But a fool and his money are bound to part
And what goes up must come down
Take my advice dont trust the roll of the dice
Keep your feet on solid ground
Chorus:
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 whos gonna tell a fool? whos gonna tell a fool?
Whos gonna tell a fool? that he aint cool (he aint cool!)
Now thems were hard times back in the eighties boy
People barely had enough to get by
Oh not me foot loose and fancy free
There was nothin to myself Id deny
But fellas listen to my story now
Though you have heard this tale before
Take care of your needs and watch out for you greeds
Or that wolf will be at your door
Chorus:
I used to have money one time
Life of adventure and crime
I used to have money one time
Now I aint got a dime
But whos gonna be the fool? whos gonna be the fool?
Whos gonna be the fool? still aint cool (it aint cool)
Whos gonna tell a fool? whos gonna tell a fool?
Whos gonna tell a fool? still aint cool (it aint cool)

Small Town
Well I was born in a small town
And I live in a small town
Probly die in a small town
Oh, those small communities
All my friends are so small town
My parents live in the same small town
My job is so small town
Provides little opportunity
Educated in a small town
Taught the fear of jesus in a small town
Used to daydream in that small town
Another boring romantic thats me
But Ive seen it all in a small town
Had myself a ball in a small town
Married an l.a. doll and brought her to this small town
Now shes small town just like me
No I cannot forget where it is that I come from
I cannot forget the people who love me
Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town
And people let me be just what I want to be
Got nothing against a big town
Still hayseed enough to say
Look whos in the big town
But my bed is in a small town
Oh, and thats good enough for me
Well I was born in a small town
And I can breathe in a small town
Gonna die in this small town
And thats probly where theyll bury me

I Need You Back
(odette quesada)
If I had shown what you really meant to me
Maybe then youd still be a part of me
I was wrong not to let you know
This feeling thats hard for me to show
Since youve gone Ive always been alone
Feeling down and sorry for myself
I look at your picture and there I find
I wont make it through another rain
Without your sunshine
Refrain:
I need you back...
I need you here to guide me
Please come back
Youre the only one whos ever loved me
I need you back
Lets start all over again
Share the love you had for me then
Since Ive said what I came here to say
Guess Id better be going on my way
But before I go I just got to let you know
Youre the only one who can make me happy again
I need you back...
I need you here to guide me
Please come back
Youre the only one whos ever loved me
I need you back
Lets start all over again

Share the love you had for me then...

You cant be still
Youre such a nervous fellow
Like a yo-yo
Up and down
Take this little pill
And life will be so mellow
Youll feel the world
Start slowing down around
Whos that rushing out the door
Whos not taking any more
Whos been down this road before
Without you
You tell me whos number one
Whos not here
Whos having fun
Whos the one who cares this much
About you
You wont feel the pain
You wont mind the rain
You can be happy all the time
All the time
One dose twice a day
The world will go away
Youll be smiling through
The worst of times
Whos that rushing out the door
Whos not taking any more
Whos been down this road before
Without you
You tell me whos number one
Whos not here
Whos having fun
Whos the one
Who knows so much about you
I believe I belive
Theres something more
I believe its just beyond the door
I believe theres something more
I believe its just
Beyond the door
I believe theres something
Better out there
Wanna leave this world
So far behind
I can see your face there
In my mind
I believe theres something
Better our there
Whos that rushing
Whos not taking
Whos been down this
You tell me whos
Whos not here whos
Whos the one who
Something better

Take Me Down
Someday Im gonna pack up
And then Im goin back up
To that place where sentimental feelings arouse
Where the grass is so green
And the air is so clean
That when the wind is right you can even smell the cows
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Ive got to get back
To that city today
If youre new in town
Then youll wanna look around
But you dont know where to begin
Well, theres bubble gum alley
And the local car rally
Not to mention the toilets at madonna inn
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Ive got to get back
To that city today
Its not much of a hassle
To drive up to hearsts castle
And its not too far from pismo beach or morro rock
You can visit downtown at your leisure
Because for your shopping pleasure
The stores never close down until five oclock
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Ive got to get back
To that city today
Take me down (take me down)
To that good old slo town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away
Take me down (take me down)

And youre lookin right, lookin good, lookin like a woman should
