Going Back
J. spinks
Im just a fool - no disguise
I still get hurt - same old pride
But growing older - Ive realized
Theres not a place - in my life - tonight
(chorus)
I aint gonna leave this town no more
Im sorry for the times that I did before
Im going back to where my heart came from
I aint gonna leave this town again
Im sorry for the things I did but then
I didnt realize whre I belonged
Shakin the blues - every night
Been all alone - no surprise
Dont you forget me - Im so blind
Im coming back - one more time - tonight
(chorus)
If these streets were empty
With nothing to see
You could take me from this town
Oh but you wont take this town out of me
Too many years - cant forget
So many dreams - aint done yet
An all of these memories - still the same
Im going home - and Ill remain - unchanged
(chorus)

Ghost Town
Well the streets are all crowded
Lots of people around
And theres music playing
But I cant hear a sound
Just the sound of the rain
Falling silently down
Livin aint been livin
Since you put down
Yeah, life goes on around me every day
But it might as well be half a million miles away
Its like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town, baby, cant you see?
Its a ghost town until you come back to me
Oo, oo, till you come back to me
Well I wish I still had you
Had you here next to me
Baby, where did you go?
Baby, why did you leave?
Though the world, it keeps turnin
But it dont turn for me
Without you in my life
My life aint no place to be
Theres only lonely days and empty nights
Aint the same without you, baby, nothin feelin right
Darlin, I wanna leave this town
Dont wanna be around
Im gonna leave this town

Babys Gone Blues
(pat bunch, pam rose, mary ann kennedy)
I feel the blues coming on
Cause I feel you being gone
Its something I wish I could lose
Babys gone blues
There aint no sunshine in sight
Cause youre gonna leave me tonight
My heart is sure feeling bruised
Babys gone blues
Chorus:
Oh - love has gone wrong
Its so hard on my heart going from good into gone
There aint no easy way back into nights before you
Babys gone blues
Babys gone blues
Its like a razor on me
Knowing you want to be free
Im standing here feeling used
Babys gone blues
There aint no dreams coming true
I wont recover from you
There aint no heartache like you
Babys gone blues

Kiss Your Freedom Goodbye
(ed king, johnny van-zant)
I dont read the paper, I dont watch the news
Lifes good in this small town, population 62
Our bank aint been held-up since 1932
Our doors are always unlocked
But not for long Im tellin you
(chorus)
cause I know times are gonna change
I know life will never be the same
I see please tell me it aint so
Theyre all movin in surroundin me
No place left to go
My oh my you can kiss your freedom goodbye
Used to have a small town drugstore
Where old men liked to meet
That stores gone out of business
Theyre sellin drugs out in the streets
The new kids like to spray paint
Theyve got a lot to say
Sure do have a way with words
Taught me a few today
(chorus)
cause I know times are gonna change
I know life will never be the same
I see small town folks like me
Are gonna have to change the way we do things cause eventually
My oh my you can kiss your freedom goodbye
Kiss it goodbye

The Night Aint Over
J. spinks
Staying up all night - this could be a party
Ive got some friends outside - looking for a good time
You better head my way - this is where its starting
No rules - no laws - tonight youre gonna stay
(chorus)
Hey girl hold me tight - the night aint over
Hey girl hit that light- the night aint over
Im staying up all night - this could a showdown
Ive got this thing inside - telling me dont run and hide
And theres so many roads - only you can go down
Dont close - your eyes - there just might be another way
(chorus)
Ooh I might be losing my soul
But lifes only fun when its dangerous
And I dont wanna be told
I wont play safe and start growing old
Its five in the morning
And I can feel the beads of sweat
Running down the back of my neck
Its so good to be with you again
Oo-oo-oo
Someday - wait and see
This will be just a memory
And Ill look back with no regrets
Good times like this I cant forget

Jailbreak
Tonight theres gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in this town
See me and the boys we dont like it
So were getting up and going down
Hiding low looking right and left
If you see us coming I think its best
To move away do you hear what I say
From under my breath
Chorus
Tonight theres gonna be jailbreak
Somewhere in this town
Tonight theres gonna be jailbreak
So dont you be around
Dont you be around
Tonight theres gonna be trouble
Some of us wont survive
See the boys and me mean business
Busting out dead or alive
I can hear the hound dogs on my trail
All hell breaks loose, alarm and sirens wail
Like the game if you lose, go to jail
Chorus
Bridge
Tonight theres gonna be trouble
Im gonna find myself in
Tonight theres gonna be jailbreak
So woman stay with a friend
You know its safer
Breakout!
Tonight theres gonna be breakout
Into the city zones
Dont you dare to try and stop us
No one could for long
Searchlight on my trail
Tonights the night all systems fail
Hey you good looking female
Come here!

Shakedown Street
You tell me this town aint got no heart. well, well, well, you can never tell.
The sunny side of the street is dark. well, well, well, you can never tell.
Maybe thats cause its midnight, in the dark of the moon besides.
Maybe the dark is from your eyes, maybe the dark is from your eyes,
Maybe the dark is from your eyes, maybe the dark is from your eyes,
Maybe the dark is from your eyes, maybe the dark is from your eyes,
You know you got such dark eyes!
Nothin shakin on shakedown street. used to be the heart of town.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart. you just gotta poke around.
You think youve seen this town clear through.
Well, well, well, you can never tell.
Nothin here that could intrest you. well, well, well, you can never tell.
Its not because you missed out on the thing that we had to start.
Maybe you had too much too fast. maybe you had too much too fast.
Maybe you had too much too fast. maybe you had too much too fast.
Maybe you had too much too fast. maybe you had too much too fast.
Or just over played your part.
Nothin shakin on shakedown street. used to be the heart of town.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart. you just gotta poke around.
Since Im passing your way today. well, well, well, you can never tell.
I just stopped in cause I want to say, well, well, well, you can never tell.
I recall your darkness when it crackled like a thundercloud.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart.
When I can hear it beat out loud!
Nothin shakin on shakedown street. used to be the heart of town.
Dont tell me this town aint got no heart. you just gotta poke around.

Aint It A Shame
(graham russell)
Hit with the bug to run, you didnt go to college we can use you son
You look like the pride of your home town
But how can you hold out when your luck is down
(chorus)
Aint it a shame, aint it a shame, aint it a shame, aint it a shame.
Because Im too tired to run around
Meeting people from the wrong side of town
Looking for a place to live, Ive got no money nothing to give, listen
All you gotta do is look around for something thats new
Find a job thats stimulating, thats easy and Im still waiting
(chorus)
Ive stood in line and done my time
With nothin to do all day
Ive stood in line with all my friends
With nothin to say all day,
Ive stood in line and done my time
With nothin to do all day
Ive stood in line with all my friends
With nothin to say all day, nothin to say all day.
Got brains but got no drive
Moneys cheap, the roads are wide
All the good positions go too fast
I need a job I know will last
Ive got a job for you can you push that shovel can you swing that broom
Keep your head down and dont go slow
But dont forget to stop with the whistle.

Held my hand but now Ive got to show.

But you dont seem to be concerned at all.

Keep on keepin on,

Gonna get you to love me.
Sometimes it seems like theres just no way at all,
You just keep drifting and drifting away.
You aint never home, when I call you on the telephone,
But Im gonna fool around, get you back someday.

My little bit of love keeps getting stronger.

Stranger In My Own Town
J. spinks, t. lewis
I still remember what I saw last night
Three small kids stealing money from a poor man
Now that aint right - no that aint right
Im still thinking bout the things I heard
Poor old man - he was frightened and afraid of every word
- and its all so absurd
But times are changing now an d I still care
There must be something we can do out there
Im like a stranger in my own town baby
Im like a stranger in my own town baby
I keep on walkin through these run down streets
Graffiti walls - this aint nothing like it used to be
Not for you or for me
This towns never been so down before
Looks like a photograph - someone mighta taken in
The second world war
Oh but what was that for
So many people gave their lives for this
Theres nothing left for us to reminisce
Im like a stranger in my own town baby
Im like a stranger in my own town baby
When those sad days were over
Im sure they all thought that weld won
But now as I look around
Were still invaded by everyone
Things wont ever be the same again
Ive not lost a town - Ive lost my only friend
Oh but where does it end
Well never change these times with good intent
But right now I know I dont feel content
Im like a stranger in my own town baby
Im like a stranger in my own town baby

This might heaven tonight but Im too lost to know
If Im not in heaven tonight then i? m sure it? s the right place to go

Raintown Boys
J. spinks
The raintown boys are leaving today
Heading on out to the shoreline
The greytown boys are tired of this place
Theyre not coming back anymore
Theyre gonna find a new life in the city
Dont wanna live in black and white
cos nothings gonna change the talkins over
Too many wasted years gone by
The raintown boys aint coming back to town no more
Theyve had enough of living in the past for sure
The sadtown girls are crying inside
Thoughts are out there in the darkness
Theyd given their hearts to the boys in the past
Now its so lonely without them
Its late at night but downtown in the city
They walk the streets - the lights turn red
A broken voice in their imagination
They cant believe the things she said
I can give you more than anyone can
Perfect strangers living in a new land
The raintown boys are so far away
Been living it up on the shore
No doubt in their minds theyre gonna stay
Theres nothing left to go home for
Theyve found a better life inside this city
Their fears are gone - their fortunes changed
Just like they were made for one another
The boys wont ever be the same
The raintown boys aint coming back to town no more
Theyve had enough of living in the past for sure
No more - no more - no more
No more - no more - no more
