New York Is Not My Home
Well things were spinnin' round me
And all my thoughts were cloudy
And I had begun to doubt all the things that were me
Been in so many places
You know I've run so many races
And looked into the empty faces of the people of the night
And something is just not right ... 'cause I know
CHORUS:
That I gotta get out of here
I'm so alone
Don't you know that I gotta get out of here
'Cause New York's not my home
Though all the streets are crowded
There's something strange about it
Lived there 'bout a year and I never once felt at home
I though I'd make the big time
I learned a lot of lessons awful quick
And now I'm tellin' you
That they were not the nice kind
And it's been so long since I have felt fine ... that's the reason
(Repeat Chorus)

New Yorks Not My Home
Well things were spinnin round me
And all my thoughts were cloudy
And I had begun to doubt all the things that were me

And something is just not right, cause I know

Sidewalk Talk
Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk
And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you
Step very lightly on the earth below
Or before you know it everyone will know
Streets were paved with a thousand eyes
And try as you may you can't disguise
There's only two things that you can't hide from
That's you and the ground you're walking on
Chorus:
Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk
You better watch what you do, what you do
'cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away
You better watch what you say, what you say
Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street
They can read what you say so you gotta stay away
From words that sting, words are not true
And the things you say make a fool of you
Little white lies make the sidewalk cry
And you can betray with the things you say
Words won't last when you say 'em too fast
And you've been mislead by the things you've said
(chorus)
Intermediate:
When you're living on the street
Life can be full of misery
Find a place to call your own
Make your heart into a home
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
After every word there's a place that heard
Every time your shoe hits the avenue
And when you've gone they'll sing a song
Of the stories you told when you felt so bold
You better think twice when you cross the ice
Everything you do comes back to you
When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear
When your laughter's true they'll run with you
(chorus)
(intermediate)
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
(repeat 3 times)

Sidewalk talk

Sown Home Town
The world outside don't like us much,
'Cos they ain't got our classy touch,
But they ain't good enough to breathe,
This towns good air we make 'em leave

But it's no, no, no,
you really can't do that,
No, no, no,

No monkey business in this town,
Well who do you think you're pushing 'round,
This towns respectable and clean,
Just look around you'll see what I mean

Look Away...)

Gotta get down

Gotta get down
Down home town
Down home town

Gods Stepchild
Gotta story for you
bout a little friend
Never felt good enough
Had a heart to mend
Never felt pretty
Learned to just pretend
Wished someone had listened
To her cries of pain
Chorus:
Maybe Im the lucky one
Maybe the forgotten one
Maybe, but I know
Im not gods stepchild
Didnt want to burden
Mother had enough stress
So often Id talk to you
Through my four legged friends
Always there to listen
Though I felt so all alone
And in my times of trouble
I know you saw my smile of pain
Repeat chorus
Now that I am older
Gone through so much pain
I learned that I should love me
No more feeling ashamed
Ive seen the great illusions
Ive seen the rough terrain
Ive walked through my own journey
And my love for you remains
Repeat chorus
I know Im the lucky one
I know Im a special one
I know, that God does
Not have a stepchild

Lovin' On The Side
(Keith UrbanG M Holden)
I can't believe it, guess I'll never understand
Seems to me, I'm lookin' at someone who's
an unchanged man
Tell me, what've I gotta do
To make you see that she's always loved you
Right there waitin' in the wings
Unaware of the foolish things you do, think about it
CHORUS:
She would never do a thing to hurt you
And there is nothing she'd ever need to hide
You're takin everything she gives for granted
You got it all and still I don't know why
You're lovin' on the side
If somebody told her 'bout your secret ways
Do you think you'd ever find another
who could take her place
I'd give everything I own
Just to have what you got at home
But still you are never satisfied
Why do you keep lovin' on the side when you know
REPEAT CHORUS
Tell me what I've gotta do
To make you see that she always loved you
Right there waitin' in the wings
Unaware of the foolish things you do,
well think about it
You're lovin' on the side
Lovin' on the side

Nayibs's Song
Lately my son i've been confused
Don't know what to tell you 'cause it's all such bad news
Lately my son i've been discouraged
I look around and it fills me with worry
What kind of world can i offer you
Where will it all lead, do we have the sense to make it through?
I've tried to figure it out, to have an answer i can tell you
But all i can see, all i can see
(chorus)
Is i am here for you, and you are here for me
It's an ongoing process
I will take care of you and you will take care of me
If were gona make some progress
(verse 2)
Lately my son i feel ashamed
For many things that have happened and are happening again
Really my son i thought we'd learned
From what i see around me it's a very tough world
But all i can hope is that you take it as a challenge
To create somthing new that will take you far,
I know that you can manage
To scatter some hope, 'cause it's not to late to repair the damage
The only way it can be, is so easy to see
Repeat chorus
(bridge)
You gotta believe, never be afraid to dream
But follow it through, 'cause it won't get done unless it comes from you
Gotta make it all work, for the ones that are coming after you
Though hard it may seem, gotta believe

To make my world my own

Chorus:
If I think about leavin

Dont matter what you do

And if I want to feel alright
Gotta shed a little light on me tonight

Baby I Love You
[Verse 1]
Boy I never knew I could feel
The way I felt, when I felt
They way you were feelin me baby
I'm so out of control
Everytime you look my way
I realize more and more
How much I adore those pretty eyes of yours
I'm helpless baby
What I want to know is
Are you willing to try
Can you love me for a lifetime
Or just one night ohh
[Chorus]
Baby I love you
Love You
Baby I need you
Need You
I gotta have you
I gotta have you baby
Can't be without you
Be without you
Baby I love you
Yea
Baby I need you
Need You
I gotta have you
I gotta have you baby
Can't be without you
[Verse 2]
Blessed and Cursed on the same day
The day that I first felt the power of you
Inside of me
Such a strong feeling
There comes a time in everyones life
When you know that everyone around you knows
That everything has changed, your not the same
Its a new day
Oh what I wanna know is
Are you willing to try
Try to be more meaning to this than what meets the eye
[Chorus]
Ohh I love the way you kiss me
Baby please
Im about to loose my mind
Ohh talk to me
cuz Im beggin for you and Im down on my knees
Baby I know your the one that I need
...Baby I love you...
...You know that I need you...
...Gotta have you...
...Can't be without you...
...Baby I love you...
...You know I need you...
...Gotta have you...
...Can't be without you..

Happy In The Meantime
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
I've gotta make up for losin' time
Cuz I've been spinnin' my wheels all night
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see you
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now
[CHORUS:]
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
I guess the rain's gonna follow me
Cuz it's been droppin' in ??
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see if
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now
[CHORUS]
Well save a little rain
And wash away the pain
I'll try and keep it clean
I'll show you what I mean
I don't wanna keep you holdin' on
Cuz in the morning I'll be gone
So long

Woke up this morning crawled out between the sheets
My woman was warm, kisses oh so sweet
Wanted to stay but I had to go
Headed for the factory, made myself some dough

I said greens is what I mean
Well it dont keep ya warm as lovin
But it sure pays for that fun in between
Got me some new wheels bright red fast and mean
Felt good drivin around in that machine
Cruisin round puttin on a show
Couldnt make the payment the car just had to go

Gotta make some changes, gotta get myself in gear
Things are gettin heavy, Im cuttin out of here
Take my woman, make some speed
Dont know where Im going but I sure know what I need

You Make Me Wanna (Extended Version)
this is what you do
this is what you do
this is what you do
(Chorus)
you make me wanna leave the one i'm with
start a new relationship with you
this is what you do
think about her and the things that come along with
you make me
you make me wanna leave the one i'm with
start a new realtionship with you
this is what you do
think about her and the things that come along with

(Verse1)
Before anything began between us
You were like my bestfriend
The one I used to run to when me and my
girl was having problems (thats right)
You used to say it would be okay
suggest little nice things I should do
And when I come home at night and lay my head down
all I seem to think about is you
And how you make me wanna
(Chorus)
you make me wanna leave the one i'm with
start a new relationship with you
this is what you do

you make me
you make me wanna leave the one i'm with
start a new realtionship with you
this is what you do
think about her and the things that come along with
you make me
you make me
(Verse2)
Now what's bad
Is your're the one that hooked us up
Knowing it should've been you
What's sad is I love her but I'm falling for you
What should I do
Should I
Tell my baby bye-bye
Should I
Do exactly what I feel inside
Cause I
I don't wanna go
Don't need to stay
But I really need to get it together
(Chorus)
you make me wanna leave the one i'm with (oh baby)
start a new relationship with you
this is what you do

you make me wanna leave the one i'm with (oh baby)
start a new relationship with you
this is what you do
think about her and the things that come along with
you make me
you make me
(Verse 3)
At this point
The situation's out of control
I never meant to hurt her but I
Gotta let her go
And if she may not understand it
Why all of this is going on
I tried
I tried to fight it but the feelings just to strong
You make me wanna wanna
You make me wanna
(Chorus)
you make me wanna leave the one i'm with
start a new relationship with you
this is what you do
think about her and the things that come along with

In love with her

I was always on the phone in the bathroom
You were always in the kitchen at the sink
Girl I was always tryna find a way to tell you
Im havin relations and its gettin kinda deep
Now even though weve been together for a long time
Girl you know and I know things are not the same
Before we go on any longer wasting all this time
I gotta let you know Im bout to make a change Im...
Chorus
You were always in the bedroom watchin tv
I was always downstairs on the couch
While you were always undecided on a movie
I was always tryna get up out this house
And then I noticed how you always went to sleep
When it was time for you to give that ass to me
And then you wonder why a brotha wants to creep
Well its time to let you know I got someone who feels me
Chorus
Somethings goin on
Somethings goin on where did we go wrong
What happened to the love I used to get at home
You be on my mind used to be my dime
Used to spend time talkin on the phone
But now that things have changed
Im jumpin in my range
And rollin out

Trying to make some sense out of
A strange condition that we see
Ive gotta find a way out cause

Breathe and just be me...
Gonna shake up the world
Into a new position
Now Im letting you know that
I am on my way...

Inside of me
Now I finally see the reason
Why...
In my heart I know its not

No sense pretending its over
Hard times just dont go away

You gotta have something to believe in
Im telling you to open mind

Gotta put your heart on the line
If you wanna make it right
Youve got to reach out and try
Gotta put your heart on the line
If you wanna make it right
Gotta put it all on the line
You see yourself in the mirror
And you dont like what you see
And things arent getting much clearer
Dont you think its time you go for a change
Dont waste your time on the past, no, no
Its time you look to the future
Its all right there if you ask
This time if you try much harder
Youll be the best that cou can be

If you wanna make it right
If you wanna do it now

Cry Tough
Remember the nights we sat
And talked about all our dreams
Well little did we know then
They were more distant than they seemed
Well I knew it
You knew it too
The things wed go through
We knew the things we had to do
To make it, baby.
Chorus:
You gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true.
Life aint no easy ride
At least thats what I am told
Sometimes the rainbow baby
Is better than the pot of gold
Youve got to stick it out
Whether youre wrong or right
And you cant give in without a fight
To make it baby

Whether you lose or win
And when you get to the top
You gotta get off or go right back down again
