If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out.
Cocaine.

If you wanna get down, down on the ground.
Cocaine.

She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie;
Cocaine!

There's a lady in a turban
In a cocaine tree
And she does a dance so rhythmically
She's a crying and a singing
Havin' a time
But don't that cocaine tree look fine

The sky is crying,
Can you see the tears roll down the street.
The sky is crying,
Can you see the tears roll down the street.
I've been looking for my baby
And I've been wondering where can she be

Think about the bad times.
Think about yours and mine.
You were lost in the silver spoon.
I pulled you out in time.

You'd better think,
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Yeah, think
Let your mind go let yourself be free

Hop on the bus, Gus
You don’t need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Ever since you walked right in,the circle's been complete,
I said goodbye to the haunted rooms and faces in the street.
To the courtyard of the jester which is hidden from the sun,
I love you more than ever and I haven't yet begun.

Well, if you ride you pay the fare... with Satan on your back,
and he don't care where you come from or where you goin'.
before I get myself all down, I jump up and kick the door down.
And walk down on the street, and leave my blues at home.

I've seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp, I met a southern belle
Oh she took me to the river, where she cast her spell
And in that southern moonlight, she sang this song so well

Everywhere I hear the sound of marching, charging feet, boy
Cause summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy
But what can a poor boy do
Except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for a street fighting man.

If you like country with a boogie beat, he's the man to meet
If you like the sound of shufflin' feet, he can't be beat
If you wanna feel real nice, just ask the rock 'n' roll doctor's advice.

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

How you gonna hide from the policeman
One eye blue and the other one brown
You're so beautiful I really am a fan
There's only one thing you got hands like a man

Arrested on charges of unemployment
He was sitting in the witness stand
The judge's wife called up the district attorney
Said you free that brown eyed man
You want your job you better free that brown eyed man

The next day was hanging day the sky was overcast and black
Big Jim lay covered up killed by a penknife in the back
And Rosemary on the gallows she didn't even blink
The hanging judge was sober he hadn't had a drink
The only person on the scene missing was the Jack of Hearts.

Order, order
What's the first case on the docket
Judge I got a boy here who can't dance
Can't dance? Ah
Ninety days, thirty days for boogaloo
Thirty days to learn how to shing-a-ling
And thirty more for the Afro twist
Can't dance, what is this
Court's in session everybody quiet now
Court's in session, here comes the judge
Here comes the judge

Judge Your Honor
Here my plea
Before you open up your court
Now I don't expect no sympathy
For what I have to report

He was playing on the sidewalk for passing change
When something strange happened .....
Glory train passed through him.
So he buried the coins he made in People's Park
And went looking for a woman
To Court and Spark

The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun.
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournament's begun.
The purple piper plays his tune,
The choir softly sing;
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue,
For the court of the crimson king

Friends are so alarming
And my lover's never charming
Life's just a cocktail party on the street
Big Apple people dressed in plastic bags
Directing traffic some kind of fashion shattered

You can really
learn a lot that way
It will change you
in the middle of the day.
Though your confidence
may be shattered,
It doesn't matter.

Clouds, clouds change the scene
Rain starts washing all these cautions
Right into your life, makes you realize
Just what is true, what else can you do

I've looked at clouds
from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life out of my dreams
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
Just as long as I can see, I'll never stop this vision flowing
I look twice and you're still flowing
Just as long as I can walk, I'll walk beside you, I'm alive in you
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
And I'm ready to shape the scheme of things

Twice as Hard
As it was the first time
I said goodbye

Hello Hello
I don't know why you say GOODBYE I say hello

"Shiver Me Timbers"

I'm leavin' my fam'ly
Leavin' all my friends
My body's at home
But my heart's in the wind
Where the clouds are like headlines
On a new front page sky
My tears are salt water
And the moon's full and high

And I know Martin Eden's
Gonna be proud of me
And many before me
Who've been called by the sea
To be up in the crow's nest
Singin' my say
Shiver me Timbers
'Cause I'm a-sailin' away

And the fog's liftin'
And the sand's shiftin'
I'm driftin' on out
Ol' Captain Ahab
He ain't got nothin' on me, now.
So swallow me, don't follow me
I'm trav'lin' alone
Blue water's my daughter
'n I'm gonna skip like a stone

So please call my missus
Gotta tell her not to cry
'Cause my goodbye is written
By the moon in the sky
Hey and nobody knows me
I can't fathom my stayin'
Shiver me timbers
'Cause I'm a-sailin' away

And the fog's liftin'
And the sand's shiftin'
I'm driftin' on out
Ol' Captain Ahab
He ain't got nothin' on me
So come and swallow me, follow me
I'm trav'lin' alone
Blue water's my daughter
'n I'm gonna skip like a stone

And I'm leavin' my family
Leavin' all my friends
My body's at home
But my heart's in the wind
Where the clouds are like headlines
Upon a new front page sky
And shiver me timbers
'Cause I'm a-sailin' away

Some cloudy day the sun won't shine
my blues away
And all I've lived for seems far away
Some cloudy day
Hear the wind howl
Hear the wind, howl

When the moon is shinin’
You know I need to howl
Ain’t come midnight
I’m gonna start my prowl
When that hunger builds
And I get that appetite
I just can’t help myself, baby
I’m off into the night

Like a wolf
Among the lambs
Like a wolf
Among the lambs
I’ll be howlin’ baby
I’ll be your man

Dark skies just turnin’
Midnight blue to gray
I’m gonna step in the shadow
Let ‘em carry me away
But when the day is over
And darkness starts to fall
Once you hear me howlin baby
I’m coming to call

Like a wolf
Among the lambs
Like a wolf
Among the lambs
You’re gonna hear me howlin’ baby
I’ll be your man
