Trouble
04:00

I met a girl real late one night and she told me
that she heard me on the radio
So she pulled out a pen, wrote her number said
if I want trouble I should let her know
I tried to be nice
but that was no good
So I made sure my shoes were tied and I ran as fast as I could
Yeah she wants trouble (trouble), Oh she wants gold (gold, gold)
Yeah she wants love (love), Or so I'm told (that's what I'm told)
So she goes out, all alone
Oh and I don't mind a good time, but I'm
not tryin' to take you home
So I made my way out to the alley
and I found some guys makin'’ lines
And I could’n't see anything else
but an old dead end street sign
I had to decline
I got to say no
So I turned around on the spot but it seems there's no place to go
They wanna get high (high), they wanna get low (low, low)
Tryin' to feel alive (feel alive), or so I'm told (That's what I'm told)
So they go out, never go to bed
Oh and I don't mind a good time, but I'm
not tryin' to lose my head
(Drum Break)
(Saxophone Solo)
I went out real late one night ‘
'cause I heard there was a band in town
So I jumped into my car
and joined everybody heading down
They got dressed up
Came from all around
And you know I overheard ’'em all saying
that they really do dig the sound
Yeah they want swing (ooh that swing), oh they want soul (soul, soul)
Give me the blues (blues), give me that rock and roll (rock and roll)
That's why I go out, late at night
Oh and I don't mind a good time if the music's outta sight
Give it to me now
Yeah they want jazz, oh they want funk
give me that hip-hop, give me that rock, rock, rock, rock and roll
Give it to me now...

Long Time Comin'

Yeah I tried so hard, so many times
But you always thought, that I was out of line
But now that I've got you, it's alright
Chorus:
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'
now baby, I've got you
I've got you
Well I chased you around, I must've looked like a fool
And I always knew babe, that you were just too cool
But now that I've got you, it's alright

The Witching Hour
04:29
|
|||
|
As the clock ticks down to midnight
And the wind begins to blow
There's a place down on the corner
and tonight I'm gonna go
and I'm starting to feel strange, as that girl comes walkin' my way
Chorus:
In the witching hour
I feel I'm under some kind of power
I do confess, my mind is a mess
Because she moves so good in that black dress
As the time winds down to nowhere
and she locks those eyes on you
the lights are burning softly
there's nothing you can do
Somebody break her spell, what she's doin' oh I just can't tell
(Chorus)
(Guitar and Saxophone Solo)
(Chorus)
I feel you comin' from a mile away (x3)
I feel you comin'
(Chorus)

As I Pass By
03:46
|
|||
|
All so close but can't see each other's eyes
and none can seem to speak without telling lies
yeah, you wouldn't want to see through their disguise
So we all remain unknown as I pass by
Chorus:
And they all crawl in like the lights suggest
to become one of the silhouettes
I cover my ears, close my eyes
and we all remain unknown, as I pass by
I walk around the streets to where the lights are dim
The signs outside invite you to come on in
and take your seat before the show begins
yeah, and take your seat, the show's about to begin
(Chorus)
(Instrumental Break)

Lose My Mind
03:21
|
|||
|
I've got a hi-hat, and low shoes
I've got a good time, and bad news
I've got a right turn, on a wrong road
If you catch me out late, won't you please, take me home
Aren't you gonna knock me out, spin me round, hold me down,
come on baby
I was gonna waste my time, wait in line, watch the signs,
come on and make me
Chorus:
Lose My mind
oh lose my mind
yeah lose my mind
I've got a window, and no room
I've got an open door, waiting for you
I've got the lights off, but I’m turnin'’ on
If you find me at home, won't you please, take me out
Aren't you gonna knock me out, spin me round, hold me down,
come on baby
I was gonna waste my time, wait in line, watch the signs,
come on and make me
(Chorus)
(Guitar Solo)

Any Way You Do It
02:59

|
She's a crocodile with a big wide smile and I've got no place to run
She's a laser-guided atom bomb, but she looks like a lot of fun
and she's got a lot of comers, but I wanna be her only one
Chorus:
Any way you do it baby
Any way you do it now
Any way you do it baby
Come on, won't you show me how
If I get my way we're goin' out tonight
'Cause everything she does, she does it right
and if somebody gets in my way, I'll put up a fight
(Chorus)
(Guitar Solo)
Well I'm taken girl and I'll tell you the truth, I want you
'Cause I can't take it when you do the things you do
So come on let's take one and one and make two
yeah yeah yeah
(Chorus x2)
Come on, won't you show me how
Come on, won't you show me how

The Girl is Alright
03:24
|
|||
|
She never wears her shirts too low
No her jeans never fit too tight
But I'll be damned if I don't know
That the girl is alright
But other guys don’t seem to care
and I couldn't tell you why
'Cause I just stop and stare
Every time she walks by
Chorus:
I'm not saying that you can't, but you won't
break me down with just your sex appeal
And I'm sure, that it's true
Girl you really could if you wanted to
But you're too refined, for that game
and it's got me wanting you every night and day, hey hey hey
Well she's got just what I want
She's everything I need
And it's plain to see
that the girl's got a hold on me
And late at night when I'm wondering
If you're all alone
And I'm tryin' to find a way, babe
to make you all my own
(Chorus)
(Drum break)
(Guitar solo)
But other guys don't seem to care
and I couldn't tell you why
'Cause I just stop and stare
Every time she walks by
(Chorus)
