Partners, Brothers And Friends

The promoter says he wants to cancel
Cause there ain't enough tickets sold
The air conditioner on the bus just broke
and I can't shake this cold
The single lost the bullet,
the singer's losin' his wife;
well I might be crazy but I wouldn't change
A single thing about this life.
Sometimes we feel like champions,
sometimes we just can't win,
sometimes our records hit the top of the charts
or the discount bargain bins.
Through 30 years of touring
We've remained partners, brothers, and friends
we keep it together cause we love it and we're sure
we'll be big time before it all ends.
Well you know you've got the Nitty Gritty
and Jimmy's got his drums along
then Jeffrey and me and Bobby will be
singing all our favorite songs
Catch the fire from the folks in the front row
fan the flames as the beat gets strong
it's great to be a part of something
so good that's lasted so long
Well I saw a story in the paper
suddenly the band's big news
the critics all like our records just fine
but they seem a bit confused
is it folk or rock or country
seems like everybody cares but us
so just leave us an early wakeup call
so we don't miss the bus
Chorus
The band says it can't stand my latest song, it's too personal
but my first wife's second marriage blew up
she had to get the dang thing annulled
well if that ain't something to sing about
well you tell me what is
and we'll give it a beat and put it on the street
and we just might have another hit
Chorus

Top Jimmy

Some friends of mine, just the other night,
Went to hear this cool cat blow.
The say he sang so good that the roof fell in,
And they didnt even stop the show.
They dont remember the place, but they remember the face,
And now everybody wanna go.
Chorus:
Top jimmy cooks, top jimmy swings.
Hes got the look. top jimmy, hes the king.
Jimmy on the television, famous people laughing with him,
Jimmy on the news at five.
Jimmy on the radio and even on the video,
That baddest cat alive.
Driving all the women crazy, only want jimmy-baby,
Love it when he rolls his eyes.
Chorus
(guitar solo)
Juke-joint jimmy is the latest thing,
Hes got the sound that everybody digs.
And the joint been jumpin when the band been pumpin
And you know theyre playing crazy gigs.
Well you aint been living till youve seen the living thing,
Top jimmy and his rhythm pigs

Player

So there U are
About time U showed up
Yea, I know what U heard
But let me talk
Baby, take a look outside your window
And see your future standing there
I've been here 4 a while now, baby
Or maybe U weren't aware
I knew that U heard every single story
About all the friends that I've got
But baby, if U give me 7 years of your time
All the friends I would have not
CHORUS:
Player - If I had U girl, I wouldn't be one
Player - If U'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player - If life was a movie, U'd have the main part
Girl, U're number one with a bullet on my charts
Don't make me say I need U like a begger man
Why don't U let me come inside?
I'm the type of male that a girl like U is in need of
Sho' U right
I could take U sailing in a glass bottom boat
U could drink wine while I read poems that I wrote
I'm sick of fishing in the big sea, baby
I wanna check out the settling down
I wanna dock my boat in your fairway
In your kisses I wanna drown {x3}
CHORUS
If I had U girl, I wouldn't be one
Friends, whatever they told U, they lied
My life's an open book, I ain't got nothing 2 hide
I need U like a begger, yeah, I got no pride
Open your heart, let me come inside
CHORUS
Baby, take a look outside your window
And see your future standing there
I've been here 4 a while now, baby
Or maybe U wouldn't care
I knew that U heard every single story
About all the friends that I've got
But baby, if U give me 7 years of your time
All the friends I will have not
Player - If I had U girl, I wouldn't be one
Player - If U'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player - If life was a movie, U'd have the main part
Cuz girl, U're number one with a bullet on my charts
Player {x3}
So that's my day in court

Marriage Is For Old Folks

Mort shuman, leon carr

Fellas advancing constantly
Marriage is for old folks

Good healthy clinging
Quietly bringing on a spree
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks!
One married he
One married she

To quit bein free
And Im not willing
To stop being me

To some guy who says

Cold folks,

With youth and with zest
Who needs corroding
In some vultures nest?

Too many blue years
Now I want new years every eve

Back When - Tim McGraw

Don't you remember
The fizz in a pepper,
Peanuts in a bottle
At ten, two, and four.
A fried bologna (boloney) sandwich,
With mayo and tomato,
Sittin' 'round the table
Don't happen much anymore.
We got too complicated,
It's all way overrated,
I like the old-and-out-dated,
Way of life
(chorus)
Back when a hoe was a hoe,
A coke was a coke,
And crack's what you were doin'
When you were crackin' jokes.
Back when a screw was a screw.,
The wind was all that blew,
And when you said, 'I'm down with that, '
Well, it meant you had the flu.
I miss back when,
I miss back when,
I miss back when.
I love my records,
Black, shiny vinyl,
Clicks, and pops, and white noise,
Man, they sounded fine.
I had my favorite stations,
The ones that played them all,
Country, soul, and rock-and-roll,
What happened to those times?
I'm readin' Street Slang for Dummies,
'Cause they put pop in my country,
I want more for my money,
The way it was back then.
(chorus)
Give me a flat top for strummin',
I want the whole world hummin',
Just keep it comin',
The way it was back then.
(chorus)
I miss back when,
I miss back when.

Stupid, Stoned & Dumb

My baby said she don't want to see my face
She kicked me right on out of her place
Now I'm back with the band and my girl is long gone
She broke my heart bad so I wrote down this song
I'm about as sad as they come
yeah, I'm stupid, stoned and dumb
I'm a pretty pitiful sight
Lately I can't get myself right
Boys, I can't get this girl out of my head
I just know she's got another man in her bed
They said, "Bret, let us give you some advice --
In Hollywood, love don't come easy, it comes at a price"
Chorus
So your girlfriend is a dancer and she makes love for money
Used to get it free we really think you're lucky
Loves a two way street you got hit by the bus
Don't break your heart or you'll end up like us
So you got dumped
Don't feel ashamed
We got a little something
something gonna ease your pain
So I toke and I snort and I smoke and I sniff
By the way, what day is this?
Chorus (x2)
You're a natural born loser don't you understand
That's why you're born to sing in a rock and roll band
Born to feel the pain and write sad songs
With losers like us this is where you belong
Chorus
Solo
The band was making it big, I was making the scene
Drive big cars and making some green
Wrote a big hit; a number one song
But by then my girl was long gone
Chorus x 3

Cheap Shot

Well the record company's goin' out of business
They price the records too damn high
And the boys in the band could use some assistance
Well the record company's goin' out of business
They price the records too damn high
And the boys in the band could use some assistance
Get a daytime job just to get by
Well the P.D.'s they won't play the record
They're too worried about that book
And the D.J's they all hate the song
But they're in love with the hook
Chorus
So na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
I bet you've heard this song before
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Take your cocaine and hit the door
Well folk rock, punk rock, power pop music
Turned out to be the latest trends
And ther ain't no more progressive music
The business has put it to an end
Ol' "Rolling Stone" has gathered some moss
No they ain't what they used to be
They try to look like "Look" with their political pages
And advertising all over T.V.

I Love Rock 'n' Roll

Hey is this thing on?
I saw him dancin' there by the record machine
I knew he must have been about 17
The beat was going strong
Playin' my favorite song
I could tell it wouldn't be long
'till he was with me (yeah me)
I could tell it wouldn't be long
'till he was with me (yeah me) singin'

Chorus
I love rock 'n' roll
So put another dime in the jukebox baby
I love rock 'n' roll
So come and take the time and dance with me OW!

He smiled so I got up and asked for his name
But that don't matter he said

Party Rock Band

My album sucks, the critics say
I cant sing and I cant play
All I care about is sex and money
I look out-dated, I think thats funny
Chorus
But Im too shallow to really give a damn
Cause I sing for a party rock band
In 86, fans ripped out my hair
Now its 96, there aint none there
The girls used to talk dirty to me
But now it just really hurts when I pee
Chorus
But Im too stoned to really give a damn
cause I sing for my party rock band
Bi-sexual girls, come get to know me
You can be my two and only
Ill be your brain-damaged party rock man
Solo
My agent says I need publicity
Told me act depressed, theyd take me seriously
So wrecked my car into a telephone pole
Tried to date the singer from hole
But courtney didnt love me
Dont they understand?
Cuz Im a shallow minded, sex cravin, dont
Care about nothing unless Im getting laid
Party rock band.

Rock 'N' Roll Band

If we were a rock 'n' roll band,
We'd travel all over the land.
We'd play and we'd sing and wear spangly things.
If we were a rock 'n' roll band.
If we were a rock 'n' roll band,
And we were up there on the stand,
The people would here us and love us and cheer us.
Hurray for that rock 'n' roll band.
If we were a rock 'n' roll band,
Then we'd have a million fans.
We'd giggle and laugh and sign autographs,
If we were a rock 'n' roll band.
If we were a rock 'n' roll band.
The people would all kiss our hands.
We'd be millionaires and have extra long hair,
If we were a rock 'n' roll band.
But we ain't no rock 'n' roll band,
We're just seven kids in the sand.
With homemade guitars and pails and jars
And drums of potato chip cans.
Just seven kids in the sand.
Talk'n and waven' our hands.
And dreamin' and thinkin' oh wouldn't it be grand,
If we were a rock 'n' roll band.

Were An American Band

On the road for forty days,
Last night in little rock put me in a haze.
Sweet, sweet connie -- doin her act,
She had the whole show and thats a natural fact.
Up all night with freddy king,
I got to tell you pokers his thing.
A-booze n ladies keep me right,
As long as we can make it to the show tonight.
Chorus
Were an american band.
Were an american band.
Were coming to your town, well help you party it down.
Were an american band.
Four young chaquitas in omaha,
Was waitin for the band to return from the show.
Feelin good, feelin right, its saturday night,
The hotel detective -- he was out-a-sight.
Now, these fine ladies, they had a plan,
They was out to meet the boys in the band.
They said, come on, dudes, lets get it on,
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down.
Chorus

Billy Was A Picker

Billy was a picker on Saturday nights.
He’d lose himself in the neon lights.
He’d travel places he’d never been.
Even leave his body now and again.
He’d leave behind
The weekday grind
And soar.

You’re oh so cool, the folks’d say
You’re gonna be a star some day
And we’ll all say we knew you when.
And act like we’re your long lost friend.
And when you’re on TV
We’ll all get to be
There too.

And Billy began to believe the praise
He began to plan his life for the days
When every one would know his name
A life of glamour, fortune, and fame
And so he changed
And then arranged
His debut.

He hocked every single possession
And invested in a recording session
He was sure he’d wow them all
And then just wait for the calls
To come rolling in
They’ll call and then
STARDOM!

He booked the local concert hall
Every dime he had, he spent it all
And sure enough, he sold it out
(As if anyone had a doubt)
They knew he would
He was that good.
A picker.

See, Billy was a picker on Saturday nights.
He’d lose himself in the neon lights.
He’d travel places he’d never been.
Even leave his body now and again.
He’d leave behind
The weekday grind
And soar.

So then it came, on that hot June night
Billy and his guitar, were ready for flight
Billy and his guitar, took center stage
Billy and his guitar, were “all the rage”
Said his friends
And so begins
His ride.

But the critics weren’t nearly so kind
“He always plays one beat behind”
“As if he’s not part of the band”
“And frankly don’t think I could stand”
“Another minute”
“Hearts not in it”
“So sad”

And Billy never played another Saturday Night
He would no longer let his soul take flight
The critics were so wrong about one thing
His heart was in it when he’d pick and sing
And his heart
They’d killed it
And his voice
They’d stilled it
Forever.

CRAZY GIRL...by talile ali

CRAZY GIRL

I'M IN LOVE WITH A CRAZY GIRL
SHE MAKES MY HEART FALL A PART
OF EVERY SINGLE THING SHE FEELS
SHE'S NEVER A FALSE START

OK, SOMETIMES SHE MISSES A BEAT
AND BOUNCES BACK AND FORTH
ALL OF THE TIME
I WOULDN'T WANT TO HAVE
HER ANY OTHER WAY
I LIKE HER MOVES
THEY'RE FINE

I WANNA SIT MY BABY ON MY LAP
AND LOVE HER ALL NIGHT LONG
KISSING AND REMISSING ALL GOOD THINGS
WHAT WE COULD HAVE IN SONG

SO MANY SUNSETS DRIFTING BY
SO MANY FULL ROOMS PASSED
SO MANY MORE DAYS LASTING
TOGETHER
WHILE WE LAST

Bron-y-aur Stomp

Ah caught you smiling at me,
Thats the way it should be,
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine.
Ah all the good times we had,
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine.
*as we walk down the country lanes,
Ill be singing a song,
Hear me calling your name.
Hear the wind within the trees,
Telling mother nature bout you and me.
Well if the sunshines so bright,
Or on our way its darkest night
The road we choose is always right, so fine.
Ah can your love be so strong
When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on?
* chorus
My, my la de la come on now it aint too far,
Tell your friends all around the world,
Aint no companion like a blue eyed merle.
Come on now well let me tell you,
What youre missing, missing, round them brick walls.
So of one thing I am sure,
Its a friendship so pure,
Angels singing all around
My dog is so fine.
Yeah, aint but one thing to do
Spend my natral life with you,
Youre the finest dog I knew, so fine.
When youre old and your eyes are dim,
There aint no old shep gonna happen again,
Well still go walking down country lanes,
Ill sing the same old songs,
Hear me call your name.

U.S Blues (encore)

U.S. Blues (Grateful Dead)
Red and White, Blue Suede Shoes
I'm Uncle Sam, How do you do?
Give me five, I'm still alive.
Ain't no luck, I've learned to duck.
Check my pulse, it don't change.
Stays 72, come shine or rain.
Wave the flag, pop the bag.
Rock the boat, Skin the goat.
Chorus:
Wave that flag, wave it wide and high.
Summer time done, come and gone my oh my.
I'm Uncle Sam, that's who I am.
Been hiding out in a rock 'n roll band.
Shake the hand, that shook the hand
of P.T. Barnum, and Charlie Chan.
Shine your shoes, Light the fuse.
Can you use, them old U.S. Blues?
I'll drink your health, share your wealth.
Run your life, steal your wife.
Chorus, then lead.
Back to back, Chicken Shack.
Sun of a gun, you better change your act.
Your all confused, what's to lose?
You can call this song the United States Blues.
Extended Chorus then end

My Girl

[Bridge]
Fuel to the flame
Fire burns proud
Stand up tall
Shout it out aloud

[Chorus]
Music is my life
(Come rock my world)
Music is my life
(Come rock my world)
It's the fuel to the flame
The fire burns proud
I stand up tall
And shout this out aloud
Music is my life
(Come rock my world)
Music is my life
(Come rock my world)
Music is my life...
Come rock my world!
You just never know
If tomorrow will come
You live for today
Feel the beat of the drum
Challenge all
Before you come undone
Don't sit and wait
Like a bullet in a gun
Say...

[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Pick your poison
Mix all your pills
Find a better way
To use all your skills
Don't take no sh*t
Count up your kills
When your list is full
Run to the hills
Say...

[Bridge]
[Chorus]
(rapped)
When the beat beats a sound on my stereo
And the drum drums that noise the only way to go
Is down, down, down into the spotlight
Rock this place, we're gonna rock it all night

[Bridge x2]
[Chorus]
Fuel to the flame
(Come rock my world)
Fire burns proud
(Come rock my world)
I stand up tall
(Come rock my world)
Shout it out aloud
Come rock my world!!
