Black Cow 04:27
In the corner Of my eye I saw you in Rudy's You were very high You were high It was a cryin' disgrace They saw your face On the counter By your keys Was a book of numbers And your remedies One of these Surely will screen out the sorrow But where are you tomorrow I can't cry anymore While you run around Break away Just when it Seems so clear That it's Over now Drink your big black cow And get out of here Down to Greene Street There you go Lookin' so outrageous And they tell you so You should know How all the pros play the game You change your name Like a gangster On the run You will stagger homeward To your precious one I'm the one Who must make everything right Talk it out till daylight I don't care anymore Why you run around Break away Just when it Seems so clear That it's Over now Drink your big black cow And get out of here

Dirty Work 04:49
Times are hard You're afraid to pay the fee So you find yourself somebody Who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' Cause your man is out of town That's the time you get me runnin' And you know I'll be around I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work No more I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah Light the candle Put the lock upon the door You have sent the maid home early Like a thousand times before Like the castle in its corner In a medieval game I foresee terrible trouble And I stay here just the same I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work No more I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah

Deacon Blues 06:14
This is the day Of the expanding man That shape is my shade There where I used to stand It seems like only yesterday I gazed through the glass At ramblers Wild gamblers That's all in the past You call me a fool You say it's a crazy scheme This one's for real I already bought the dream So useless to ask me why Throw a kiss and say goodbye I'll make it this time I'm ready to cross that fine line I'll learn to work the saxophone I'll play just what I feel Drink Scotch whisky all night long And die behind the wheel They got a name for the winners in the world I want a name when I lose They call Alabama the Crimson Tide Call me Deacon Blues My back to the wall A victim of laughing chance This is for me The essence of true romance Sharing the things we know and love With those of my kind Libations Sensations That stagger the mind I crawl like a viper Through these suburban streets Make love to these women Languid and bittersweet I'll rise when the sun goes down Cover every game in town A world of my own I'll make it my home sweet home I'll learn to work the saxophone I'll play just what I feel Drink Scotch whisky all night long And die behind the wheel They got a name for the winners in the world I want a name when I lose They call Alabama the Crimson Tide Call me Deacon Blues This is the night Of the expanding the man I take one last drag As I approach the stand I cried when I wrote this song Sue me if I play too long This brother is free I'll be what I want to be I'll learn to work the saxophone I'll play just what I feel Drink Scotch whisky all night long And die behind the wheel They got a name for the winners in the world I want a name when I lose They call Alabama the Crimson Tide Call me Deacon Blues

Do It Again 05:08
En el dia te vas con pistola Buscando el hombre que te robo el agua Y le das hasta su muerte Pero te agarran en el borde Y los dolientes estan cantando Mientras te arrastran por los pies Y te ponen en la calle You go back, jack Do it again wheel turning round and round You go back, jack Do it again reconoces ella no va mas alta Ai encuentras tu unica amiga en una cuarto con tu tramposa Y estas seguro que estas cerca lo final Y te trae solo dolor Todo el tiempo sabes que se sonrie Estaras en las rodillas manana You go back, jack Do it again wheel turning round and round You go back, jack Do it again Ahora nos juras, ruegas, y das patadas que no eres jugador Y te encuentras otra vez en Vegas Con un mango en la mano Tu tarjetas negras te pueden hacer dinero Enotonces las enscondes cuando puedes En la tierra de leche y miel Debes ponerlas pon la en la mesa ya You go back, jack Do it again wheel turning round and round You go back, jack Do it again

FM 04:19
Worry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wine Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time The girls don't seem to care what's on As long as it plays till dawn Nothin' but blues and Elvis And somebody else's favorite song Give her some funked up music, she treats you nice Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice The girls don't seem to care tonight As long as the mood is right FM - no static at all Give her some funked up music she treats you nice Feed her some hungry reggae she'll love you twice The girls don't seem to care tonight As long as the mood is right FM - no static at all

Hey 19 06:28
I'm sorry we can't dance together we can't dance at all but please take me along when you slide on down Hey Nineteen Way back when In Sixty-seven I was the dandy Of Gamma Chi Sweet things from Boston So young and willing Moved down to Scarsdale Where the hell am I Hey Nineteen No we can't dance together No we can't talk at all Please take me along When you slide on down Hey Nineteen I'm 'Retha Franklin you don't remember The Queen of Soul It's hard times befallen The sole survivors you thinks I'm crazy But I'm not growing old Hey Nineteen No we can't dance together No we can't talk at all Please take me along When you slide on down if I was nineteen I would dance with you I'm sorry nineteen but I must refuse Hey Nineteen No we can't dance together No we can't talk at all Please take me along When you slide on down The fine Colombian Make tonight a wonderful thing No we can't dance together No we can't talk at all

I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes When you put me on the Wolverine up to Annandale It was still September when your daddy was quite surprised To find you with the working girls in the county jail I was smoking with the boys upstairs When I heard about the whole affair I said, "Oh no William and Mary won't do now" Well I did not think the girl Could be so cruel And I'm never going back To my old school Oleanders growing outside her door Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale I can't stand her doing what she did before Living like a Gypsy queen in a fairy tale Well I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm gonna take her down to Mexico She said, "Oh no Guadalajara won't do" Well I did not think the girl Could be so cruel And I'm never going back To my old school California tumbles into the sea That'll be the day I go back to Annandale Tried to warn you about Chino and Daddy Gee But I can't seem to get to you through the U.S. Mail Well I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm gonna take her down to Mexico She said, "Oh no Guadalajara won't do now" Well I did not think the girl Could be so cruel And I'm never going back To my old school never going back to school!

Your everlasting summer You can see it fading fast So you grab a piece of something That you think is gonna last You wouldn't know a diamond If you held it in your hand The things you think are precious I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine You been tellin' me you're a genius Since you were seventeen In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean The weekend at the college Didn't turn out like you planned The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine I spend a lot of money And I spent a lot of time The trip we made in Hollywood Is etched upon my mind After all the things we've done and seen You find another man The things you think are useless I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine

We hear you're leaving, that's OK I thought our little wild time had just begun I guess you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run But if you have a change of heart Rikki don't lose that number You don't wanna call nobody else Send it off in a letter to yourself Rikki don't lose that number It's the only one you own You might use it if you feel better When you get home I have a friend in town, he's heard your name We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row We could stay inside and play games, I don't know And you could have a change of heart you could have a change of heart You don't want to lose that number Rikki you're gonna use it we could go out driving on Slow Hand Row Or we could stay inside and play games I don't know But I know you'll have a change of heart Rikki don't lose that number You don't wanna call nobody else Send it off in a letter to yourself Rikki don't lose that number It's the only one you own You might use it if you feel better When you get home You tell yourself you're not my kind But you don't even know your mind And you could have a change of heart Rikki don't lose that number You don't wanna call nobody else Send it off in a letter to yourself Rikki don't lose that number It's the only one you own You might use it if you feel better When you get home

Peg 04:30
I've seen your picture Your name in lights above it This is your big debut It's like a dream come true So won't you smile for the camera I know they're gonna love it I like your pin shot I keep it with your letter Done up in blueprint blue It sure looks good on you And when you smile for the camera I know I'll love you better Peg It will come back to you Peg It will come back to you Then the shutter falls You see it all in 3-D It's your favorite foreign movie
