Live and let die

When you were young
And your heart was an open book

You used to say, "live and let live"
(You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
But if this ever-changing world in which we're livin'
Makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die

What does it matter to ya, when you've got a job to do, you gotta do it well
You gotta give the other fellow hell

You used to say, "live and let livin'"
(You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
But if this ever-changing world in which we're livin'
Makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die 

Summer of '69

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
I should've known, we'd never get far

Oh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you've got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you, yeah

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Oh, yeah!
Back in the summer of '69, oh

Man, we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever
Forever, no!
Yeah!

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about you, wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd last forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Oh, yeah!
Back in the summer of '69
Oh!
It was the summer of '69
Oh, yeah!
Me and my baby in '69
Oh!

It was the summer
The summer
The summer of '69
Yeah!  

Good riddance (Time of your life)

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

Roadhouse blues

Yeah

Yeah, keep your eyes on the road, your hand upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're goin' to the Roadhouse
We're gonna have a real
Good time

Yeah, back at the Roadhouse they got some bungalows
Yeah, back at the Roadhouse they got some bungalows
And that's for the people
Who like to go down slow

Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, all night long

Do it, Robby, do it

You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta thrill my soul, all right
Roll, roll, roll, roll
Thrill my soul
You gotta beep a gunk a chucha
Honk konk konk
You gotta each you puna
Each ya bop a luba
Each yall bump a kechonk
Ease sum konk
Ya, ride

Ashen lady, Ashen lady
Give up your vows, give up your vows
Save our city, save our city
Right now

Well, I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
Well, I woke up this morning, and I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain, and the end is always near

Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, all night long 

The Buzz

It's a drug like any other
Opiated, sugar coated
You've either got the sack
Or about to be promoted
At the mercy of your man
And he's making you wait

For the buzz, I can't get no relief
You've reduced me to a liar, a liar and a thief
Love, oh, love, I can only prove you're real
By the scratching and the fever
Proof for a believer
Is how a shot of love makes you feel

And you think that you don't care
And you think that it's your choice
But you're hypnotized and follow
The puppet master's voice
And you know you can't forget
And you know you gotta get

The buzz, I can't get no relief
You've reduced me to a liar, a liar and a thief
Love, oh, love, I can only prove you're real
By the scratching and the fever
The proof for a believer
Is how a shot of love makes you feel

And you know you can't forget
You know you gotta get

The buzz, I can't get no relief
You've reduced me to a liar, a liar and a thief
Love, oh, love, I can only prove you're real
By the scratching and the fever
The proof for a believer
Is how a shot of love makes you feel

Makes you feel
Makes you feel
Makes you feel
Makes you feel 

Goodbye Jimmy Reed

I live on a street named after a Saint
Women in the churches wear powder and paint
Where the Jews, and Catholics, and the Muslims all pray
I can tell they're Proddie from a mile away
Goodbye Jimmy Reed, Jimmy Reed indeed
Give me that old time religion, it's just what I need

For thine is kingdom, the power, the glory
Go tell it on the mountain, go tell the real story
Tell it in that straightforward, puritanical tone
In the mystic hours when a person's alone
Goodbye Jimmy Reed, godspeed
Thump on the Bible, proclaim a creed

You won't amount to much, the people all said
'Cause I didn't play guitar behind my head
Never pandered, never acted proud
Never took off my shoes, throw 'em in the crowd
Goodbye Jimmy Reed, goodbye, goodnight
Put a jewel in your crown and I put out the lights

They threw everything at me, everything in the book
I had nothing to fight with but a butcher's hook
They had no pity, they never lend a hand
I can't sing a song that I don't understand
Goodbye Jimmy Reed, goodbye, good luck
I can't play the record 'cause my needle got stuck

Transparent woman in a transparent dress
Suits you well, I must confess
I'll break open your grapes, I'll suck out the juice
I need you like my head needs a noose
Goodbye Jimmy Reed, goodbye and so long
I thought I could resist her but I was so wrong

God be with you, brother dear
If you don't mind me asking what brings you here?
Oh, nothing much, I'm just looking for the man
Need to see where he's lying in this lost land
Goodbye Jimmy Reed, and everything within ya
Can't you hear me calling from down in Virginia? 

Leave Virginia alone

Well they chased her down the alley
And over the hill to steal her will
She was hot as Georgia asphalt
When the "A" crowd came to adore her brain

So leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me

You should've seen her back in the city
Poetry and jewels, broke all the rules
She was high as a Georgia pine tree
Makeup and pills, overdue bills

So leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me

Some sunny day when the hands of time
Have had their way
You'll understand why it was so hard to run away

She's a loser, she's a forgiver
And she still finds good, where no one could
You ought to want her more than money
Cadillacs and rust, diamonds and dust

So leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me
Yeah, leave Virginia alone
Leave Virginia alone
She's not like you and me
She's not like you and me 

Have you ever seen the rain

Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm
I know
It's been coming for some time
When it's over, so they say
It'll rain a sunny day
I know
Shining down like water

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard
I know
Been that way for all my time
'Til forever, on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow
I know
It can't stop, I wonder

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day?

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day?

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day?

Coming down on a sunny day
Coming down on a sunny day 

Still the same

You always won every time you placed a bet
You're still damn good, no one's gotten to you yet
Every time they were sure they had you caught
You were quicker than they thought
You'd just turn your back and walk

You always said the cards would never do you wrong
The trick you said was never play the game too long
A gambler's share, the only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn't fake

And you're still the same
I caught up with you yesterday
(Still the same)
(Still the same)
Moving game to game
No one standing in your way

Turning on the charm
Long enough to get you by
(Still the same)
(Still the same)
You're still the same
You still aim high

There you stood, everybody watched you play
I just turned and walked away
I had nothing left to say
'Cause you're still the same

You're still the same
(Still the same)
(Baby-baby still the same)
Moving game to game
(Still the same)
(Baby-baby still the same)
Some things never change
(Still the same)
(Baby-baby still the same)
Ah you're still the same
(Still the same)
(Baby-baby still the same)
Still the same
(Still the same) 

I want your love

Nile, Chic, Gaga
I want your love, I want your love
I want your love, I want your love
I want your love, I want your love

Do you feel, like you ever want to try my love and see how well it fits?
Baby, can't you see when you look at me?
I can't kick this feeling when it hits
Oh, all alone, in my bed at night
I grab my pillow and squeeze it tight
I think of you
And I dream of you, all of the time
What am I gonna do?

I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)

Sometimes, don't you feel like you never really had a love that's real?
Well, here I am and who's to say
A better love you won't find today
Gimme just one chance and I will show you love like no other (like no other)
Two steps above (like no other)
I'm your ladder, I'll be your path
I want your lovin', please don't make me beg
(Please don't make me beg)

I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)

I want your love, I need your love
I'll share my dreams
And make you see how really bad your love, I need
I want your love, I need your love
Just like the birds needs sky above
I'll share my dreams
And make you see how really bad your love, I need
I'll share my dreams
And make you see how really bad your love, I need

I want your love, I want your love
I want your love
(Chic)
(You know, I'm a good lover)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)
I want your love, I want your love
(You know I want your love, you know I need your love)

I want your love, I want your love
(Now play it)
You know I need your love, you know I need your love
You know I want your love, you know I need your love
You know I want your love, you know I need your love
You know I want your love, you know I need your love
You know I want your love, you know I need your love
You know I want your love, you know I need your love
Need your love, need your love
Need your love, need your love
Need your love, need your love
(Have you ever really been in love?)
I want your love, I want your love
