1. SPINNING WHEEL BLUES

Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night
Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night
Well, red twenty-seven didn't do me right

Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down
Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down
Well, now that I'm a poor man, I got no frends around

I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill
I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill
I need a whole lotta money so I can pay my bills

Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags and go
Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags and go
I had to leave my home town, 'cos they don't want me no more


2. DOWN THE DUSTPIPE

Heading down the back turnpike, signposts are pointing west
Fell into the lonely dustpipe, hope my pick-up can stand the test
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Guess I didn't make it in the city, but that's just the way that it goes
'Cos there's a lotta lunatics, crazy ghostmen, baby, don't like the shape of my nose
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like New Orleans
But I'm doing all right now..


3. UMLEITUNG

(Lancaster/Lynes)
I don't need you mama, I just need your love
I'm here for loving so take it while I'm good enough

4. SHY FLY

Come let me take you, said tiger to the fly

His eyes were a shining, but fly she was aware

Shy fly keep on smiling, yes, keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, gonna keep on smiling every day
Shy fly keep on smiling, you're gonna keep on smiling every day

Miss Fly and Tiger turn each other on
But teasing and back-biting makes loving much more fun

5. MEAN GIRL

Now I'm a sad one, and she was a bad one
A mean, mean girl
I never had one as greedy as that one
A mean, mean girl

Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more

She was a big one, a met-at-a-gig once
A mean, mean girl
I felt a sick one, she was a quick one
A mean, mean girl

Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
I guess she's not the kind that I was looking for
Mean, mean, mean, mean girl
She said I was the first but there were many more

6. GERDUNDULA

Love it seems I just can't find
Love it seems I just can't find
Seems that I'm the one love
The one love left behind

I've searched it just won't come my way
I've searched it just won't come my way
It's love that I want now
So what more can I say

Women seem to pass me by
Women seem to pass me by
If I could find the reason
I'd know the answer why

Love it seems I just can't find
Love it seems I just can't find
Seems that I'm the one love
The one love left behind


7. SPICKS AND SPECKS

Where is the sun that shone on my head
The sun in my life, it is dead, it is dead
Where is the light that would stay in my street
And where are the friends I could meet, I could meet

Where are the girls I left far behind
The spicks and the specks of the girls on my mind
Where is the sun that shone on my head
The sun in my life, it is dead, it is dead

Where are the girls I left far behind
The spicks and the specks of the girls on my mind
Where are the girls I left far behind
The spicks and the specks of the girls on my mind

Where is the girl I have loved all along
The girl that I love, she is gone, she is gone

All of my life I've tossed with the day
The spicks and the specks of my life gone away
All of my life I've tossed with the day
The spicks and the specks of my life gone away

Where is the sun that shone on my head
The sun in my life, it is dead, it is dead


8. IS IT REALLY ME? / GOTTA GO HOME

Baby, the feeling that you give to me
Maybe I'm thinking your so good to me
Is it really, really me?
Is it really, really me?

Baby, the feeling, I can't stand the joy
Spare me some feeling if I wake up a boy
Is it really, really me?
Is it really, really me?

Baby, I'm feeling like a fire, I am
Am I still teething or could I be a man?
Is it? Is it?
Is it really, really me?
Is it really, really me?

I gotta get along 'cos it's a long, long ride now
I've been away too long, I gotta get on home now
I'm getting far too old to know my dream of fortune
But the time is flowing now, I know what I must do

I gotta go home, I gotta go home
I gotta go home to ease my mind
I gotta go home, I gotta go home
I gotta go home to ease my mind

I gotta get along 'cos it's a long, long ride now
I've been away too long, I gotta get on home now
I'm getting far too old to know my dream of fortune

DISC 2

1. TUNE TO THE MUSIC

Excuse me crying
Can't you hear what I'm saying
I guess I'm going
Going on my way.
I know there's something
Something's going wrong now
There's no tune to the music

My eyes are burning
Can't anybody hear me
My head is turning
I need somebody near me
But since you wonder
Everything is so wrong
There's tune to the music

The sounds are ringing
The emptiness is all mine.
Nobody bringing
The thing to make me feel fine
I know there's something
Something's going wrong now
There's no tune to the music
No words to my song


2. EVERYTHING

My eyes can see, my hands can feel
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
They can see everything, everything

A bird that flies, a bird that dies
And who knows why? But with my eyes
I can see everything, everything

And now the dawn is breaking
I see the dawn is breaking
And life seems very good to me
I see your face is smiling
Your bed looks warm, inviting
I feel your hand walk over me

I climb in bed beside you
The past is not behind you
You feel a little pain inside
And now our heads are whirring
It's done, there's no returning
You feel the little pain - it dies

My eyes can see, my hands can feel
My ears can hear, my eyes can see
They can see everything, everything

A bird that flies, a bird that dies
And who knows why? But with my eyes
I can see everything, everything
And who knows what it all means?


3. SOMEONE’S LEARNING

All around an open fire, no-one’s got a name
The flame is getting higher and higher, nothing’s quite the same
But someone’s learning, the fire keeps burning
Someone’s learning, the fire keeps burning

In the night three children died, now, all were under five
That’s alright, God’s on our side, now, our religious right
And someone’s learning, someone’s learning
The world keeps turning, and someone’s learning

Someone made a big mistake, now, that will never do
Show him what we think about it, read it in the news
And someone’s learning, someone’s learning
The world keeps turning, and someone’s learning


4. IN MY CHAIR

I saw her talking, now
My ears were burning
Her feet startet walking, now
They started turning
My eyes were half open
But she didn't see me there
We ran along, walking 'cross the roof-tops
In my chair

Had a car in my pocket
And we started moving
A man in a helmet said
"What's that you're using"
My eyes were half open
But we didn't see him there
Put the car back in my pocket
And I'm still here in my chair

My teeth were laughing, now
We couldn't stop smiling
We danced to the Mystery Band
Without even trying
My eyes were half open
But we didn't see them there
We ran along, walking 'cross the roof-tops
In my chair


5. SOMETHING’S GOING ON IN MY HEAD

Something you’re saying now
Disturbing the way I feel
I don’t know what you’re about
I only know the way that I feel
I’m holding it here in my mind
So please don’t be unkind
Don’t talk just let me unwind
‘Cos something’s going on in my head Yeah, something’s going on in my head
And I’m not quite sure what you said

I can see the rain outside
It’s falling on everything
It’s making such a noise out there
But my ears they don’t hear a thing
I’m trying to get it over to you
Just what I want you to do
Don’t know what I’m going through
‘Cos something’s going on in my head
Yeah, something’s going on in my head
And I’m not quite sure what you said

Something you’re saying now
Disturbing the way I feel
I don’t know what you’re about
I only know the way I feel
I’m holding it here in my mind
So please don’t be unkind
Don’t talk just let me unwind
‘Cos something’s going on in my head Yeah, something’s going on in my head
And I’m not quite sure what you said


6. RAILROAD

Railroad she left me standing on a line
Railroad she's really leaving me this time
Leaving on the midnight train
Leaving never gonna come back again

I'm living alone
A place of my own
A bed a chair and one back door
Something went wrong
With the words to my song
And now she ain't around no more
It was something she said
As she laid on my bed
Six or seven hours ago
I guess I was wrong
I really didn't think she would go

Railroad she left me standing on a line
Railroad she's really leaving me this time
Leaving on the midnight train
Leaving never gonna come back again

Her face was always smiling
Guess she was always laughing at me
I said her face was always smiling
Guess she was always laughing at me
If I'd realised
I'd be less suprised
To find that she was laughing at me


7. LAZY POKER BLUES

9. LAKKY LADY

Ah well, I've got a woman and I love, love her so
She is big, fat and lazy but I want you all to know
That I love her and I need that woman so
She is my little lady and I'm glad that you all know

When she wakes in the morning and her figure tells no lies
My eyesight is broken when the light shines on her tights
But I love her and I need that woman so
Oh how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go

And I love her and I need that woman so
Oh well how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go

Ah well she is so lazy, how she moves I'll never know
She was so different eleven years ago
But I love her and I need that woman so
She's a big lakky lady but I love that woman so


10. DAUGHTER

You and I can see what's going wrong
We know we don't like it going wrong
Daughter can you have sons for yourself
Daughter can you have some for yourself

All your whiskered friends their wings and life
Who knows what 'o' ever reason why
Daughter can you have sons for yourself
Daughter can you have some for yourself

Listen to the sounds of lowry pride
Seen her in the truth within her life
Daughter can you have sons for yourself
Daughter can you have some for yourself


11. NANANA

Writing songs that I think sound so strange
Writing words that I feel I should change
It's all right if they sound just like other songs
My guitar strums along just the same
If this song's underlined with my name

Nanana na nana na na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na

Playing games that I think may be wrong
Making sounds that can go on and on
It's all right if you stay right on to the end
If my song could've been just a bore
Then I hope you may come back for more

Nanana na nana na na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na na
Nanana na nana na na na na na...
