Dark Hollow
Id rather be in some dark hollow where the sun dont ever shine
Then to be at home alone and knowin that youre gone
Would cause me to lose my mind.
Well blow your whistle freight train carry me far on down the track
Well Im going away, Im leaving today
Im goin, but I aint comin back.
Id rather be in some dark hollow where the sun dont ever shine
Then to be in some big city, in a small room, with you upon my mind.
Well Im going away, Im leaving today
Im goin but I aint comin back.

Runnin Blind
First you say one thing then you say another.
I dont know the difference, were you lyin to me baby?
But it seems to me you got yourself in a bind.
Always on the road playin your guitar.
Leaving me at home for cryin out loud.
Wish you could see babe that youre runnin blind, yeah!
Change is comin no more runnin
Change is comin no more runnin
Well its time for you to play all that you can say
Is get out of my way. dont be in the way
Always hear you screamin
I know youre just dreamin of leavin it all behind.
Hands keep goin up and down
Eyes are turnin around and around
Your goin crazy and nobody minds
Change is comin no more runnin
Change is comin no more runnin
Change is comin no more runnin

Lover Please

Lover please, please come back
Dont take that train goin down the track.

You would never call me dear.

Now youre gone and thats what Ill do.

About a love that went all wrong.

Now she gone and she oh so sad.

Comin & Goin
(dennis lambert / brian potter)
Stay at home
Phone that should be ringin
Quiet as a picture on the wall
Now, tea for one, a song Im used to singin
Walking up and down an empty hall
Takin off a wrinkled dress
That you never got to see
Then you come a-knockin at my door
You know you couldve fooled me
Youve got me comin and goin baby
And I never know exactly what to do
So I ask myself why should I care?
What is it I see in there?
That makes the same old line sound like its new?
Oh Im comin and goin crazy over you, ah
Ahh, you and me
Once we get together
For a little while were jack and jill
Baby, baby, now face to face, its too good to believe it
Sure enough, you leave me standing still
Youre a complicated man
But I do the best I can
I go in and out of heaven so fast
I dont know where I am
Youve got me comin and goin baby
And I never know exactly what to do
So I ask myself why should I care?
What is it I see in there?
That makes the same old line sound like its new?
Oh, Im comin and goin crazy
Comin and goin crazy
Youve got me comin and goin baby
And I never know, now I never know, what to do, ahh
Youve got me comin and goin baby
You just dont know what you put me through
When the only face I see is you
Youve got me comin and goin baby
Say the magic isnt really gone
Its you Im still depending on

Gonna Get Back Home Somehow
(words & music by doc pomus - mort shuman)
Hear that old train whistle
Howling in the night
If that flyers southbound
Everything will be all right
Im leaving now, leaving now, leaving now,
Im gonna get back home somehow
Dont nobody tell me
Babys been untrue
If shes been unfaithful
I dont know what Ill do
Im leaving now, leaving now, leaving now
Im gonna get back home somehow
Never thought that I could miss her so
I never thought I could , now I know
The sound of the old train whistle
Makes me want to cry
Reminds me of that lonely feeling
When I said goodbye
Im leaving now, leaving now, leaving now
Im gonna get back home somehow

Goin To Acapulco
Im going down to rose maries
She never does me wrong.
She puts it to me plain as day
And gives it to me for a song.
Its a wicked life but what the hell
The stars aint falling down.
Im standing outside the taj mahal
I dont see no one around.
Goin to acapulco
Goin on the run.
Goin down to see fat gut
Goin to have some fun.
Yeah goin to have some fun.
Now, whenever I get up
And I aint got what I see
I just make it down to rose maries
bout a quarter after three.
There are worse ways of getting there
And I aint complainin none.
If the clouds dont drop and the train dont stop
Im bound to meet the sun.
Goin to acapulco
Goin on the run.
Goin down to see some girl
Goin to have some fun.
Yeah goin to have some fun.
Now, if someone offers me a joke
I just say no thanks.
I try to tell it like it is
And keep away from pranks.
Well, sometime you know when the well breaks down
I just go pump on it some.
Rose marie, she likes to go to big places
And just set there waitin for me to come.
Goin to acapulco
Goin on the run.
Goin down to see some girl
Goin to have some fun.
Yeah goin to have some fun.

Hey, look a'yonder comin'
Comin' down that railroad track

Bringin' my baby back
Well I'm goin down to Florida
And get some sand in my shoes
Or maybe Californy
And get some sand in my shoes
I'll ride that Orange Blossom Special
And lose these New York blues
Say man, when you going back to Florida?
When am I goin' back to Florida? I don't know, don't reckon I ever will
Aint you worried about getting your nourishment in New York?
Well, I don't care if I do-die-do-die-do-die-do-die

Back To The Trenches
Presidents and peace spreading poets
Getting gunned down in the streets
Shown to us on our prime time screens
For our tea time treat
Lunatics we voted for denying
Everything that they swore
We sit around and shout about it
But we dont do nothing more
Drafted for police action
But they decided on a war
Telling us we were saving mankind
Why dont you ask cambodia
We were solving it with marijuana
We were sure that we could
Always leavin it to someone else
Just knocking on wood
Were goin back to the trenches
Were goin back to the trenches
Well you say you got a say so
But youre knowin that it aint so
And you turn away
You think its safer to ignore it
But the score is your children have to pay
Everybody wants better
Everybody talkin bout it
Are we wastin time
Gotta stop only lookin, talkin
Were all guilty of the crime
Were goin back to the trenches
Were goin back to the trenches
We gotta move, we got everything to lose
We gotta move, we got everything to lose
Were all headed for the front
But everybodys fightin for a good address
Its time we made the changes
Or well be burnin with the rest
We just aint communicatin and I dont
Mean conversations on the telephone
When nero starts to fiddle this time
Theres a lot more gonna burn than rome
Were goin back to the trenches
Were goin back to the trenches
Were goin back to the trenches
Were goin back to the trenches

Nowhere
If ever you wondered
If ever you were nervous about it
You gotta know,
I aint never,
Lemme say that again,
I aint never, goin nowhere
Listen to me
Last night I allmost cried when you told me
That you think you love me more than I love you
Sometimes it hurts to carry that burden alone
Lets be clear and get a few things straight
No ones ever gunna take your place in my heart
Nothing can measure the love that i've got for you
Im telling you
When im out in the club at night
You dont have to worry about a thing
Cuz I aint goin nowhere, I aint goin nowhere,
So my heart is telling me that you are the one
that im gon be with for the rest of my life
And I aint goin nowhere
I know you've heard it all before
You dont have to worry no more
Cuz I aint goin nowhere
Baby just trust me
As long as you love me
I aint never goin nowhere
I was lost and abandoned
Searching for the truth
Looking for that missing one
That missing one was you
The road was so tough
But you gave it up
Untill I found you and you made it
Worth the wait and worth the years
Worth the strength and worth the tears
And you dont know the half of it
But baby heres the rest of it
Did you know that your a gift far brighter than the sun?
Did you know that your a blessing, and im the lucky one
Did you know that I could never ask for a better love
Did you know that I would die, before I broke your heart
Did you know that if you left me, my world would fall apart
And never come back together, baby thats for real
So the next time that you tell me, you'll remember this
When im out in the club at night
You dont have to worry about a thing
Cuz I aint goin nowhere, I aint goin nowhere,
So my heart is telling me that you are the one
that im gon be with for the rest of my life
And I aint goin nowhere
I know you've heard it all before
You dont have to worry no more
Cuz I aint goin nowhere
Baby just trust me
As long as you love me
I aint never goin nowhere
When im out in the club at night
You dont have to worry about a thing
Cuz I aint goin nowhere, I aint goin nowhere,
So my heart is telling me that you are the one
that im gon be with for the rest of my life
And I aint goin nowhere
I know you've heard it all before
You dont have to worry no more
Cuz I aint goin nowhere
Baby just trust me
As long as you love me
I aint never goin nowhere

I Aint Goin Nowhere
(tia sellers/mark sanders)
When the world is on your shoulders
Just too much to bear
Boy my love can make you stronger
I aint goin nowhere
When youre followin all the rules
But life will not play fair
Come to me and well roll with the punches
I aint goin no where
By your side, by your side day and night
I will be always
Theres a play in my heart, in my heart
Just for you always
I aint goin nowhere
I aint goin nowhere
I cant guarantee that your dreams
Wont fade into thin air
But as sure as Im livin breathin
I aint goin nowhere
By your side, by your side day and night
I will be always
Theres a play in my heart, in my heart
Just for you always
I aint goin nowhere
I aint goin nowhere
But straight to you
No one else would do
My love will shine right through your rain
I will left you up, I will lift you up
By your side, by your side day and night
I will be always
Theres a play in my heart, in my heart
Just for you always
I aint goin nowhere

Nothin on earth thatll get me hummin
Like a heat wave comin and Ill come runnin
With her makin that tan in the broad daylight
And every night is a saturday night
And everythings right with the summer comin
Im the first one standin in line
For my day in the sun Ive been workin til the sun dont shine
Takin off my hat leave it to the boys
Get that old work monkey down off my back
All I wants a little peace and noise
Hit the cruise control get me back on track
Let my old ford treat me like a cadillac
Repeat chorus
When the day gets cookin gonna grab my toys
And it really doesnt matter which wave were on
Get to turnin up them good old boys
Crankin into the night, by the break of dawn
All the towns are red and I still see blonde

For my day in the sun Ive been workin

It Could Be Sweet
I dont want to hurt you
For no reason have I but fear
And I aint guilty of the crimes you accuse me of
But Im guilty of fear
Im sorry to remind
You but Im scared of what were creating
This life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn now
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
It could be sweet
Like a long forgotten dream
And we dont need them to cast the fate we have
Love dont always shine thru
Cos I dont wanna lose
What we had last time your leaving this life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn now
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
It could be sweet.....
But the thoughts we try to deny
Take a toll upon our lives
We struggle on in depths of pride
Tangled up in single minds
Cos I dont wanna lose
What we had last time your leaving this life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn back
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
Cos I dont wanna lose
What we had last time your leaving this life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn back
Mmmm gotta try a little harder

Shame
(sung with hal ketchum) written by neil diamond and hal ketchum
(check it out
Im a little man
But youre my woman
And together well be strong)
The end of the road, is lonesome and cold
Aint no place for making a stand
I got too much of you on my mind
Too much time on my hands
Some people say there just aint no way
We can hold on and see this thing thru
I dont care what they say
They never loved one like you
Shame, it comes in every size
Touches many lives
Knocks on many doors
Shame, Ive seen it in your eyes
Hurt you with their lies
But words dont count at all
Because I dont care what they say
There aint no shame in loving you
I remember the day that I drove you away
Lord that whistle gave a lonesome moan
The train that took you away
Is gonna bring you back home
And Ill be standing right there in the cold mornng air
When that train comes a rolling in
Knowing, once youre back in my arms
You wont be leaving again
Shame, it comes in every size
Touches many lives
Knocks on many doors
Shame, Ive seen it in your eyes
Theyll hurt you with their lies
But their words dont count at all
Because I dont care what they say
There aint no shame in loving you
No, I dont care what they say
There aint no shame in loving you

There aint no shame in loving you

San Francisco Bay Blues
Got the blues from my baby
Left me by the san francisco bay.
This big ocean liner took her so far away.
Didnt mean to treat her so bad
She was the best girl I ever have had.
She said good-bye, and she made me cry
Im gonna lay right down and die.
Well, I aint got a nickel and I aint got a lousy dime.
If she dont come back I think Im gonna lose my mind.
If she ever comes back to stay,
Well, thatll be another brand new day,
Walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay.
Sittin in my back door
Wondering which way to go
That woman Im so crazy about
She dont love me no more.
Lord, I think Ill grab a freight train
Because Im feeling blue,
Ride all the way to the end of the line
Thinking only about you.
Well, meanwhile in another city
Just about to go insane
Thought I heard my baby
The way she used called my name.
If she ever comin back to stay
Well, thatll be another brand new day
Walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay
(I really mean it!)
Oh, walking with my baby down by the san francisco bay, whew!!

Leaving Home Aint Easy
I take a step outside
And I breathe the air
And I slam the door
And Im on my way
I wont lay no blame
I wont call you names
cause Ive made my break
And I wont look back
Ive turned my back
On those endless games
Im all through with ties
Im all tired of tears
Im a happy man
Dont it look that way?
Shaking dust from my shoes
Theres a road ahead
And theres no way back home
Ohh but I have
Leaving home aint easy
Oh I never thought it would be easy
Leaving on your own
Oh is the main thing calling me back?
Leaving home aint easy
On the one your leaving home
Stay my love my love please stay
Stray my love whats wrong my love?
Whats right my love?
Ohh leaving home aint easy
I thought how could I think of leaving
Leaving on your own
Still trying to persuade me that
Leaving home aint necessary
Leave the only way
Leaving home aint easy
But may be the only way
