All The Good Ones Are Gone
(dean dillon/bob mcdill)
(track 2 - time 3:16)
Shell turn thirty-four this weekend
Shell go out with her girlfriends
Theyll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on
Therell be guys and therell be come ons
Shell probably get hit on
But she thinks all the good ones are gone
Shes got friends down at the office
And she cant help but notice
That when the day is over
How they all hurry home
Every day theres guys she works with
And even some she flirts with
But it seems like all the good ones are gone
And her mama called this mornin
Said Im worried about my baby
I wish you had a family of your own
She said mom its not that easy
You make it sound so simple
But you cant take the first man that comes along
Once she had someone who loved her
Back when she was younger
Now she wonders if she held out
A little bit too long
Back then there were so many
Now there just arent any
It seems like all the good ones are gone
And her mama called this mornin
Said Im worried about my baby
I wish you had a family of your own
She said mom its not that easy
You make it sound so simple
But you cant take the first man that comes along
Shell turn thirty-four this weekend
Shell go out with her girlfriends
Theyll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on

Waterfall
Chimes sing sunday morn
Todays the day shes sworn
To steal what she never could own
And race from this hole she calls home
Now youre at the wheel
Tell me how, how does it feel?
So good to have equalised
To lift up the lids of your eyes
As the mile they disappear
See land begin to clear
Free from the filth and the scum
This american satelites won
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall
See the steeple pine
The hills as old as time
Soon to be put to the test
To be whipped by the winds of the west
Stands on shifting sands
The scales held in her hands
The wind it just whips her away
And fills up her brigantine sails
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall
Shell carry on through it all
Shes a waterfall

Secret Garden
Shell let you in her house
If you come knockin late at night
Shell let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
Shell let you deep inside
But theres a secret garden she hides
Shell let you in her car
To go drivin round
Shell let you into the parts of herself
Thatll bring you down
Shell let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, dont think twice
Youve gone a million miles
How fard you get
To that place where you cant remember
And you cant forget
Shell lead you down a path
Therell be tenderness in the air
Shell let you come just far enough
So you know shes really there
Shell look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
Shes got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away

Strutter 78
I know a thing or two about her
I know shell only make you cry
Shell let you walk the street beside her
But when she wants shell pass you by
Evrybody said shes lookin good
And the lady knows its understood
Strutter!
Strutter!
Strutter!
She wears her satin like a lady
She gets her way just like a child
You take her home and she says maybe, baby
She takes you down and drives you wild
Evrybody said shes lookin good
And the lady knows its understood
Strutter!
I know a thing or two about her
I know shell only make you cry
Shell let you walk the street beside her
But when she wants, shell pass you by
Everybody said shes lookin good, and the lady knows its understood

Strutter - look out, that girl will just pass you by
Strutter - whoa oh, she gets her way like a child

Daddys Girl
When the sun goes down and its getting late
You say its time for bed
She just takes her time
Acting like she never heard a word you said
Little baby wanna hold you tight
She dont ever wanna say good night
Shes a lover, she wanna be daddys girl
When the morning comes
And its time to go start another day
She wont let you leave, and she does her best
To try to make you stay
Pretty baby gonna start to cry
She dont ever wanna say good bye
Shes a lover, she wanna be daddys girl
She dont ever wanna be without you
Never have to worry she wont doubt you
Then she puts her head upon your shoulder
Says she marry you when she get older
When the time has come, and shes old enough
To be on her own
She wont understand why youre feelin sad
Cause shes leaving you all alone
Little woman gonna make you cry
You dont ever wanna say good bye
Shes a lady, shell always be daddys girl
Little woman gonna break your heart
Gonna miss her when youre both apart
Shes a lady, but shell always be daddys girl
Shell always be daddys girl
Shell always be daddys girl
Shell always be daddys girl
Shell always be daddys girl
Shell always be daddys girl
Shell always be daddys girl

Good Time
My girlfriend betty shes always ready
To help me in any way
Shell do my cookin shes always lookin
For ways she can make my day
And when Im lookin at her the sound of pitter patter
On rainy days like today
Could get you feelin warmer
And you know what-a that can lead to
Maybe it wont last but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
Might go up in smoke now but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
My girlfriend penny, shes kinda skinny
And so she needs her falsies on
She dont like cookin but shes so good lookin
I miss her when shes gone
And when she gets to dancin I feel just like romancin
Especially when were dancing close
Shell do the dirty boogie
And thats when I go up in smoke
Maybe it wont last but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
Might end up in tears now but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
Wo wo wo wo wo wo wo uh
Wo wo wo
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Wo wo wo
Maybe it wont last but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
For just a few hours with nuoh what do we care
Lets have a good time
Good time
Oh good time
Oh good time
Goooooood tiiiiiiiiime

Asshole
Your brains went black
When she took back her love
And put it out into the sun
The birds did fly
When the heavens all went dry
And the cigarettes were smoking by themselves
Shell do anything
Shell do anything
Shell do anything
To make you feel like an asshole
Call her name
She looks the same as you
With question-marks stretched across her skin
She dangles carrots
Makes you feel embarrassed
To be the fool you know you are
Shell do anything
Shell do anything
Shell do anything
To make you feel like an asshole

Early Mornin Rain
In the early mornin rain
With a dollar in my hand
With an achin in my heart
And my pockets full of sand
Im a long way from home
And I missed my loved on so
In the early mornin rain
And no place to go
Out on runway number nine
Big seven-o-seven set to go
Well, Im stuck here on the ground
Where the cold winds blow
The liquor tasted good
And the women all were fast
There she goes, my friend
Shes a rollin down at last
Here the mighty engines roar
See the silver bird on high
Shes away in westward bound
Far above the clouds shell fly
Where the mornin rain dont fall
And the sun always shines
Shell be flyin over my home
In about three hours time
This old airports got me down
Its no earthly good to me
cause Im stuck here on the ground
Cold and drunk as I might be
You cant hop a jet plane
Like you can a freight train
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin rain

Carry On
(track 11 - time 3:22)
(even stevens/hillary kanter/mark collie)
Mama went to sleep one night and never woke up
Daddy cried a tear into her old coffee cup
Now all he wants to do is drink the hurt all away
But if mama was here I know what mama would say
Carry on
Carry on
What dont kill us makes us strong
Carry on
Little sisters husband ran off with her best friend
Left her and the babies all alone again
It hurts to know the hurt that shes going through
But I know that shell do what shes gotta do
Carry on
Carry on
What dont kill us makes us strong
Carry on
Nobody ever said that life was gonna be fair
Youre never gonna get nowhere by running scared
If you look down deep inside youll find the faith to make you strong
Oh carry on
I try to walk the sunny side of the street
Dont let no shadows tangle up my feet
There aint no troubles that we cant rise above
With a handful of faith and a heartful of love
Carry on
Carry on
What dont kill us makes us strong
Carry on
Carry on
What dont kill us makes us strong
Carry on

Someday

Someday
When Im cool
Shes gonna think about how
She used to treat me so cruel
On that someday
Man, shell crawl back to me
Someday
When Im gone
Shes gonna see how it feels to be
All alone
On that someday
Man, shell crawl back to me
So she said goodbye again
Im just waitin for the time to come
When shell get down on her knees
Beggin, now darlin, please
Ive been tryin every trick I know
But she still walks in
Makes me feel so grim
Seein her is gettin harder every day
Someday
When Im cool
Shes gonna think about how
She used to treat me so cruel
On that someday
Man, shell crawl back to me
Man, shell crawl back to me
Man, shell crawl back to me

The Old Songs
Candles burning
Glasses are chilled and soon
Shell be by
Hope and pray
Shell say that shes willing to give us
Another try
And if all those plans Ive made
Dont melt the ladys heart
Ill put on the old 45s
And maybe the old songs
Will bring back the old times
Maybe the old lines will sound new
Maybe shell lay her head on my shoulder
Maybe old feelings will come through
Maybe well start to cry
And wonder why
We ever walked away
Maybe the old songs
Will bring back the old times
And make her want to stay
Its been too long since ive
Seen her face light up
When I come home
Its been too many
Hours Ive wasted staring
At the phone
Sweet old songs Im counting on you
To bring her back to me
Im tired of listening alone

Ive Got A Thing About You Baby
(words & music by tony joe white)
Ive got something to tell you
That I think you ought to know
That my eyes are on you baby
Since a long time ago
And now I finly got the nerve
And Im gonna make my move
Now dont you try to turn me off
Cause its gonna be hard to do
Ive got a thing about you baby
Aint nothing I can do
Ive got a thing about you baby
A thing about lovin you
Aint it just like a woman
When she knows shes got a man
Shell wring you out and turn you bout
In the palm of her hand
And then she starts to thinkin
Then maybe shes put you in a blind
Shell give you just a little lovin
Itll drive you out of your mind
Ive got a thing about you baby
Aint nothing you can do
Ive got a thing about you baby
A thing about lovin you

Its A Matter Of Time
(words & music by clive westlake)
Its a matter of time before I go back there
A matter of time before I go home
I have been way from her now for a long time
And Ive lived a life I thought that it should be
Its a long, long way from now to maybe sometime
And the waiting round is really killing me
Its a matter of time before I go back there
A matter of time oh lord, before I go home
Its a long way I know and the goin aint easy
Shell see me again its a matter of time
I think Ill take a train right early in the morning
Just to see how far I get along the way
But the trains dont run too often only sometimes
So I guess Id better wait another day
Its a matter of time before I go back there
A matter of time before I go home
Its a long way I know and the goin aint easy
Shell see me again, its just a matter of time
Shell see me I know its a matter of time

She Used To Say That To Me
Lets take a rest
Your kisses take my breath
You are the best
Its never been like this
Chorus:
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
Shell tell you shell never leave
She used to say that to me
It thrills you so
When she whispers soft and low
Please hold me tight
I need your love tonight
Repeat Chorus
Im yours, she sighs
And she means it at the time
But someday shell go
If youre wonderin how I know
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
Shell tell you shell never leave
She used to say that
She used to say that to me
Over and over so sweet
Shell tell you shell never leave
She used to say that to me
She used to say that to me

Snail Shell
Sir hand
Or is it maam
I fell out of my right place again
And you
Considered me
And now Im where a snail has to be
I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what youd only do for me?
I need to know because you see
I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
Friend
Look what you gave
And how can you ever be repaid?
How may I give you a hand
From the position at your feet where I stand?
So let me thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
Id like to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what youd only do for me?
I need to know because you see
I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
Snail shell
Thank you
Snail shell
Thank you
Ah
Ah
Ah
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what youd only do for me?
Or was it something where you acted when you saw the need
And knew that there would be a way the act could be repaid
And so it may, but for today
I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell

In the early mornin rain
With a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart
And my -pockets full of sand
Im a long ways from home
And I missed my loved one so
In the early mornin rain
With no place to go
Out on runway number nine
Big 707 set to go
Well Im out here on the grass
Where the pavement never grows
Where the liquor tasted good
And the women all were fast
There she goes my friend
Shes rolling out at last
Hear the mighty engines roar
See the silver wing on high
Shes away and westward bound
For above the clouds she flies
Where the mornin rain dont fall
And the sun always shines
Shell be flying over my home
In about three hours time
This ol airports got me down
Its no earthly good to me

Cold and drunk as I might be
Cant jump a jet plane

Victim Of Love
Victim
She can take you
Anywhere she wants to
She can show you things,
That make you weak
She can make you think,
That youre the only one,
She can steal your heart,
With just one wink,
Why shell hold ya tight,
And she wont let go,
Shell make it last and shell make it slow,
She tell you things that you should not know,
Cause your the victim, the victim of lo-o-ove,
Framed by the night, touched by the glove,
Your the victim, the victim of love,
She can freeze you, when she doesnt want to talk,
She can work it on in, yea she can go take a walk,
She can have or leave it, she can do the skidoo-o ,
Well you better believe it, shes having fun on you,
She can hold you tight,
And she wont let go,
Shell make it last and shell make it slow,
Shell tell you things you should not know,
Cause your the victim, victim of lo-o-ove,
Framed by the night, touched by the glove,
Your the vic-tim, victim of lo-o-ove,
Thats right,
Oh when shes calling you out,
You better run to her-er,
When shes just falling out,
Youd better care,
Oh when she needs somebody,
Oh you better run to her-er,
Oh when she gives in too soon,
Its just not fair.
Oh well shell hold you tight,
And she wont let go,
Shell make it last and shell make it last ,
And shell make it slow-o,
Shell whisper things,
Youd never know,
Cause you the victim, yea,
Victim of lo-o-ove,
Youre framed by the night,
And touched by love,
Youre the vic-tim,
Victim of lo-o-ove,

Right Here In My Arms
She is smiling like heavens down on earth
Sun is shining so bright on her
All her wishes have finally come true
Her heart is weeping. this happiness is killing her.
Its right, shes in love
Shell be right here in my arms
So in love
Shell be right here in these arms
She cant let go
Repeat
So hard shes trying
But her heart wont turn to stone...oh no
She keeps on crying
But I wont leave her alone
Shell never be alone
Shell be right here in my arms
So in love
Shell be right here in these arms
