Lose Them Blues 04:05
lyrics
buy track
Play it where it lay and send it back again there's nothing they can say that will change the end And all their words may try to bring you down One can only pray that they come round It's the price we pay to gain uncommon ground some things that were lost need not be found Ooh, lose them blues and all you can't use Now, don't refuse to lose them blues Like a castle in the skies you will rise, rise, rise Shine like a crazy diamond in disguise Shed all of those sorrows and dry your eyes May all of your tomorrows bring sweet surprise And all their words may try to bring you down, down, down One can only pray that they come round It's the price we pay to gain uncommon ground some things that were lost need not be found Ooh, lose them blues when you choose there's nothing they can say

Jackpot Baby With you I am a winner For the rest of our days we'll dine on chicken dinner Your elusive ways are tamed by no beginner but, the reward you pay Causes them to linger Everything about you is in spades Baby, you and I will have it made Flush with them royal serenades Our kind of love it never fades Jackpot Baby Oh, you're the one Let's get away from here and have some fun Jackpot Baby Stay by my side With you right there, I know, I'll be lucky tonight Jackpot Baby Meet me down the river I'm rags on my own please save this sinner I've been long alone but, know you will deliver we'll fill this happy home and be all the richer Jackpot Baby Oh, our time has come Let's go far away from here and have some fun Jackpot Lady Now, let's get wild Play them suicide kings with a smile Jackpot Baby stay by my side with you right there, I know, I'll be lucky tonight I'll get lucky tonight

Seems Like Yesterday (Mockingbird) 02:20
lyrics
buy track
I've been stuck in the middle in the middle, baby, with you And it seems like yesterday when we finally knew the truth And all those games we played where the revolver was our Clue I remember how you used to say you gotta give the devil his due When the Mockingbird sings to me it's song is always the same Mockingbird please let me be and don't come back again When the Mockingbird has come there's no rest for anyone Oh, the Mockingbird's song sings forever on I've been stuck in the middle in the middle, baby, with you And I remember you used to say Well, it seems like yesterday

Unplug My Mind 03:59
lyrics
buy track
Gonna unplug my mind and be all right Too much noise works it overtime Now, you can't believe everything you read Not every position is guaranteed Impassioned words plead for your soul but, them cries of conspiracy are getting old Well, you can't believe everything you hear or live your life in constant fear Round the world a whisper sounds louder than a gun but, what's true for many is wrong to some Gonna unplug my mind and be just fine take a break from it all and sleep through the night And maybe in my dreams I'll find a little peace 'cause these days feel extreme and it seems so out of reach Gonna unplug my mind and be all right Too much noise works it overtime No, you can't believe everything you see even when the pictures look like me careful manipulations made to sway So, you better think twice about what you say And maybe in my dreams I'll find a little peace 'cause these days it can seem... so out of reach

Roll On 02:47
lyrics
buy track
Where the ocean waves reach the shore they drift away and leave me wanting more they carry my cares far out to sea until they become distant memories They roll on far away from here for the ocean knows no fear whatever your troubles baby, you know, it rolls on In quiet moments at dawn's first light my hope for the world shines on despite whatever may come throughout the day and whatever may threaten disarray So, roll on onto the setting sun on when the day is done whatever your troubles baby, you know, it rolls on ...and some day some day you may find your trouble will subside to be replaced by piece of mind Roll on roll on without an end forever to transcend whatever your troubles baby, you know, it rolls on it rolls on

When She Drives 02:50
lyrics
buy track
One Day I will come to realize She took the keys and went for a ride My baby, knows no other way I'll try not to close my eyes when she rockets down the interstate doing a hundred and five she's got horses and v8 it may have been unwise best to clear out her lane my baby, when she drives My baby, knows no other way you better recognize she'll leave you while you hesitate and wave bye bye she's got horses and v8 it may have been unwise best to clear out her lane my baby, when she drives Too it should not be of much surprise When she comes round and begins to slide She's bound to be first across the line Just imagine if she actually was to try

Cherry Cheesecake 02:39
lyrics
buy track
My baby, when she goes you know she comes back to me She's my Cherry Cheesecake and she's as sweet as can be there's something in her way and that's just fine by me Now, when she kicks off her shoes you know she'll solve the mystery She's like Mrs White rockin' the convervatory She's my Cherry Cheesecake and she's got all that I need there's something in her way and that's all right with me Now, when she makes up her mind you know she's gonna have her say She'll talk in the dark and sleep in the light of day She's my Cherry Cheesecake and everything's ok Yes, she's my Cherry Cheesecake and everything's ok
