What About Me
(Released December of 1970)
You poisoned my sweet water.
You cut down my green trees.
The food you fed my children
Was the cause of their disease.
My world is slowly fallin' down
And the airs not good to breathe.
And those of us who care enough,
We have to do something.......
(Chorus)
Oh.......oh What you gonna do about me?
Oh.......oh What you gonna do about me?
Your newspapers,
They just put you on.
They never tell you
The whole story.
They just put your
Young ideas down.
I was wonderin' could this be the end
Of your pride and glory?
(Chorus)
I work in your factory.
I study in your schools.
I fill your penitentiaries.
And your military too!
And I feel the future trembling,
As the word is passed around.
"If you stand up for what you do believe,
Be prepared to be shot down."
(Chorus)
And I feel like a stranger
In the land where I was born
And I live like an outlaw.
An' I'm always on the run..........................
An Im always getting busted
And I got to take a stand........
I believe the revolution
Must be mighty close at hand.......................
(Chorus)
I smoke marijuana
But I cant get behind your wars.
And most of what I do believe
Is against most of your laws
I'm a fugitive from injustice
But I'm goin' to be free.
Cause your rules and regulations
They dont do the thing for me
(Chorus)
And I feel like a stranger
In the land where I was born
And I live just like an outlaw.
An' I'm always on the run.

Save The Land
Look out for the land rush, its coming day by day.
Said, get ready for the land rush, its headed right your way.
Look what youre paying, to live on your land,
And most folks dont even have some, but I dont understand.
Chorus
Spread the news across the land, and just do the best you can,
All weve got is just the land; take a stand, save the land.
Sometimes I sit here thinking, but all the answers just dont appear.
Im calling to my brothers and sisters, lets get together and kill this fear.
There aint really gonna be much to it. we can control the thing if we try.
With just a little more understanding, the whole world will get by.

Changes
Dont you feel a change a-coming
From another side of time
Breaking down the walls of silence
Lifting shadows from your mind
Placing back the missing mirrors
That before you couldnt find
Filling mysteries of emptiness
That yesterday left behind.
Chorus:
And we all know its better
Yesterday has passed
Now lets all start the living
For the one thats going to last.
(repeat chorus)
Dont you feel the day is coming
That will stay and remain
When your children see
The answers
That you saw the same
When the clouds have all gone
There will be no more rain
And all the beauty of all things
Is uncovered again.
Chorus
(repeat chorus)
Dont you feel the day is coming
And it wont be too soon
When the people of the world
Can all live in one room
When we shake off the ancient
Chains of our tomb
We will all be born again
Of the eternal womb.

Cant Get You Off My Mind
Life is just a lonely highway
Im out here on the open road
Im old enough to see behind me
But young enough to feel my soul
I dont wanna lose you baby
And I dont wanna be alone
Dont wanna live my days without you
But for now Ill have to be without you
*chorus*
Ive got a pocket full of money
And a pocket full of keys that have no bounds
But then I think of loving
And I just cant get you off of my mind
Babe cant you see
That this is killing me
I dont want to push you baby
And I dont want you to be told
Its just that I cant breathe without
I feel like Im gonna lose control
(chorus)
What are the rules and reasons and the dos and donts
Tell me baby tell me baby
What do you feel inside

Cant Have Your Cake
When I was a young boy my mama would say
Son, you aint always gonna get your way
Times will be good, times will be bad
You aint always gonna get a winning hand
Son, she always said, you gotta stand tall
Even when it looks like youll take a fall
Life is short and sometimes sweet
Get out of the kitchen if you cant take the heat
(pre-chorus)
Everything she said was true
My mama never was a fool
Gotta live your life by the golden rule
(chorus)
I guess its true what they say
Really true what they say
I guess what mama said was true
Cant have your cake and eat it too, babe
I never doubted any word my
Mutha said
With all the sinnin runnin round my head

Chorus:
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
I dont wanna live
(live without you, live without you)
I dont wanna go
(go without you, go without you)
I dont wanna be alone
Verse1:
When we hooked up
We sat down
Made an agreement
We vowed that
That wed always be together
Through whatever
We said that no one ever would
Get between us
So love will never ever leave us
That was a while ago,oh
But now lately
It feels like
I mean I feel like
All we do is fight
Every single night
Cant make it tight
Cant get it right
I just wanna go back
Take it way back
All the way back
Can we start again?
Do it over?
Can we straighten it out?
Can we work it out?
Chorus 2x:

Do you realize
I cant sleep without you
Think without you
Eat without you
Speak without you
Be without you,i cant even breathe without you
I cant feel without you, deal without you
Spend without you

Dont wanna go out
Cause I cant ride without you
Feel like Im goin die without you
What is a girl supposed to do?
When I spend my last time to be in your life
I dont wanna be without you
Chorus:
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
Said I cant live
(live without you, live without you)

Said I cant live
(live without you, live without you)
I dont wanna go go
(go without you, go without you)
Said I dont wanna, be alone
Bridge:
How can this be?
That its not working out
(that its not working out)
We vowed
(to be--always together)
Its hurting me
(hurting me)
That we dont talk no more
(it wasnt supposed to be this way
Where did we go wrong?
We both made mistakes
We gotta carry on)
Chorus(4x):
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
I dont wanna live

I dont wanna go

My Way
Oh the heat is on, and my backs against the wall
You know its tough to be strong, in a world that makes you crawl
Im never gonna stop, Im never gonna give up in the fight
cause after the battle is done, all youve got left is your pride
Chorus:
Im gonna talk like I talk, walk like I walk my way
Im gonna go where I go, aint takin no my way
Here in the danger zone, its a jagged edge we climb
But if you take it like stone, and stand on your own
You can make the grade in time
Im never gonna run, Im never gonna tell myself a lie
cause after its all said and done, I wont be wonderin why
And Ill know that under the gun, I am the one whos got the right to decide
Chorus
And if you dont play my game I wont play, Im gonna do it my way
Im never gonna run, Im never gonna tell myself a lie
cause after its all said and done, Ive got the right to decide
Chorus repeats 3x
Yeah, Im gonna do it my way, yeah, Im gonna do it my way

Push
She said I dont know if Ive ever been good enough
Im a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in
And I dont know if Ive ever really been loved
By the hand thats touched me, well I feel like something gonna give
And Im a little bit angry, well
This aint over, no not here, not while I still need you
Around
You dont owe me, we might change
Yeah we just might feel good
(chorus)
I wanna push you around, I will, I will
I wanna push you down, I will, I will
I wanna take you for granted(2x)
I will
She said I dont know why you ever would lie to me
Like Im a little untrusting when I think that the truth is
Gonna hurt ya
And I dont why you couldnt just stay with me
You couldnt stand to be near me
When my face dont seem to want to shine cuz its a little bit dirty well
Dont just stand there, say nice things to me
Ive been cheated Ive been wronged, and you
You dont know me, I cant change
I wont do anything at all
(chorus)
Oh but dont bowl me over
Just wait a minute well it kinda fell apart, things get so
Crazy, crazy
Dont rush this baby(2x)

New Kind Of Medicine
Chorus
I need a new kind of medicine
I need a new kind of medicine
I need a new kind of medicine
One dont hurt so much
Aint so damn tough
And makes me feel good all over
Something baby about your love
Dont work for me
And I been thinking
How bad your loving makes me feel
Turning me around and around
Back and forth
And up and down
Always thought youd be good for me
But lately its killing me
Pre chorus
And I need someone
To fill me with sweet ecstasy
And I need someone who can take
Me high
And set me free
Leaving me alone at night
Never want to sacrifice
Now I know youre no good for me
Now Ive got to find a remedy
Tell me baby
How could things change so soon
I gave you everything
Nothing was too good for you
Love should feel like
A warm healing deep inside
But I feel Im slowly dying
From sitting home alone and crying

What Goes Around Comes Around
We go around and lie to one another
Without a second thought
Dont you think were fooling each other
Like this we cant go on.
No respect or consideration, where has your conscience gone
Take a step in the right direction or this wont last too long
(chorus)
What goes aroung comes around
You got to stand your ground
Be careful what you do or say
Whatever goes around comes around
(verse 2)
Once again you got away with it
Are you happy now
Watch your mouth, dont put your foot back in it
Gets back to you somehow
I must say you tell a good story
Of things I know aint true
You turn around and say youre sorry
With a straight face attitude
(chorus)
What goes around comes around
You got to stand your ground
Be careful what you say or do
Whatever goes around come around
You got to stand your ground
No matter what road you take
Whatever goes around comes around
(bridge)
Dont underestimate this girl
You will only fool yourself
Are we gonna live with this when theres so much at stake
Theres no way were gonna make it
A change is overdue
Live and learn to loveone another
Its all up to you

Together
Something just isn't right
I can feel it inside
The truth isn't far behind me
You can't deny
When I turn the lights out
When I close my eyes
Reality overcomes me
I'm living a lie
(Pre Chorus)
When I'm alone I
Feel so much better
And when Im around you
I don't feel at all
(Chorus)
Together
It doesn't feel right at all
Together
Together we built a wall
Together
Holding hands we'll fall
Hands we'll fall
This has gone on so long
I realize that I need
Something good to rely on
Something for me
(Pre Chorus)
(Chorus)
My heart is broken
I'm lying here
My thoughts are choking on you my dear
On you my dear
On you my dear

When I'm around you
When I'm around you

Need Someone To Hold
The sun came up and pushed away the clouds.
Stumbled back to my room, really dont know how.
I wont wake up til this afternoon,
Been out walkin all night again.
Stranger here tryn to have fun.
Far from home; its just begun.
Chorus:
Give out the warm, it comes back cold.
Oh, god, I need someone to hold.
The coffees cold, its gonna have to do.
My feet are shot, feelin hungry too.
People dont have a thing to say.
Feel your dignity slip away.
Wont wake up til this afternoon.
Waste of time cause theres nothing new.

A city nice as this one should be kind.

Everybodys talking, the world is goin round
Rumors are flying all over the town
How could a stranger know whats still a
Mystery to me

I dont know what it is
I only know for certain Ive never felt like this
And, baby, its the one thing I can believe
Theres nothing I fear in this life
Long as Ive got you by my side
Chorus
Were mighty as a hurricane, tougher than stone
Stronger than anything Ive ever known
One look at us together anybody could see
There aint nothin that can stand up to

Everything about you feels just like home
Before you I dont remember how I got along
You are the spark to my flame
The only one that burns in your name

What were holding right in our hands
Youre the woman that makes me a better man
