1. ALL NIGHT LONG

All night long,
Yeah we’re going all night long,
Here we go all night long,
Everybody all night long yeah!

Are you ready to go all night long,
Make you stop in your tracks when you’re singing our song,
A good time comin’ will keep your motor runnin’ all day yeah!
You know you like it ‘cause you’re having fun,
And the feet getcha moving to the good-time strum,
The walls come down and you let it all out let me hear you say:

Yeah we’re going all night long,
All night long,
Yeah we’re going all night long,
Do it anyway you want,
And do it all night long!

You know you got it when you’re having fun,
And the rock n rolls shaking you under the sun,
You scream and you shout this is what it’s all about,
It’s the only way,
You got it started now we’ll tear it up,
Got a speaker box pumpin’,
Bang your head to the drums,
You got a smile on your face,
‘Cause you found your place,
Let me hear you say:

Yeah we’re going all night long,
All night long,
Yeah we’re going all night long,
Do it anyway you want,
And do it all night long!

D-d-d-Do it right!

Do it all night!
Do it for the drum!
Yeah, whatcha waitin’for?!

I wanna dig it in the jailhouse rock,
Wanna feel it from my head rock down to my socks,
That’s what it means when you’re livin’ your dreams,
Let me hear you say:

Yeah we’re going all night long,
All night long,
Do it anyway you want,
And do it all night long!
(x4)

3. THESE THINGS

I want to know the truth
I want to hear it from you
Tell me what to do
Can we make it through?

It's always about
These things
Are killing me, they're tearing us apart
These things
You're telling me that this is what you want

Try and erase our mistakes
It's time for it all to change
I will try and prove
That I'm the one for you

It's always about
These things
Are killing me, they're tearing us apart
These things
You're telling me that this is what you want

Everything you said I erased from my mind
Now I'm crying all the year
If I could only find an escape I would try
Because I feel I'm being used
These things

How could I relate when we don't take the time
I just want to be with you
I will keep you safe but there's no way to hide
The truth

It's always about
These things
Are killing me, they're tearing us apart
These things
You're telling me that this is what you want

(These things)
Everything you said I erased from my mind
Now I'm crying all the year
If I could only find an escape I would try
Because I feel I'm being used
These things...


4. OH MY LORD

Oh My Lord lyrics
Hey now, baby, you're rolling
And your kitty in the middle is calling
You got me hot like a diamond at Christmas
Oh, my Lord

Meet me on a corner at midnight
We'll get down 'cause you know that it's alright
Get me my rocket like you need the sunlight
Oh, my Lord

Oh, my Lord
You are hotter than a firestorm
You will never have to be alone
You'll be treated like a precious stone

Girl, you've got some dedication
I wanna give you all of my affection
You got all the boys at your attention
Oh, my Lord

Oh, my Lord
You are hotter than a firestorm
You will never have to be alone
You'll be treated like a precious stone

Oh, my Lord
I have never seen this before
You must have been blessed when you were born
Wanna wrap you up and take you home

Baby, you're the main attraction
I wanna give you some satisfaction
I hear you knocking at my backdoor
Oh, my Lord

Oh, my Lord
You are hotter than a firestorm
You will never have to be alone
You'll be treated like a precious stone

Oh, my Lord
I have never seen this before
You must have been blessed when you were born
On my knees praying, oh, my Lord


5. RECOVERY

Recovery!
Recovery!
Recovery!
Recovery!

People say I need some recovery
They can't seem to handle my energy
If you hate me, stand up in front of me
You can meet my god

When the sun shines down
I will always be there
When you wear the crown
They will come to defeat you
Recovery!

Recovery!
Recovery!

Stick it to me, fear and ferocity
I have uncuffed your animosity
Ain't no doubt there's something inside of me
That can't be left alone

When the sun shines down
I will always be there
When you wear the crown
They will come to defeat you
If you turn back now
They will make you a believer
You'll be a face in the crowd
But you'll never be a leader
Oh, yeah...

People say I need some recovery
They can't seem to handle my energy
If you hate me, stand up in front of me
You can meet my god

When the sun shines down
I will always be there
When you wear the crown
They will come to defeat you
If you turn back now
They will make you a believer
You'll be a face in the crowd
But you'll never be a leader
Recovery!

Recovery!
Recovery!
Recovery!
Recovery!


6. NEVER SAY NEVER

Sarah started on the wrong track
And she was always seeking shelter
Johnny was an insomniac
And no one loved him more than Sarah

Gone, they were gone, and the bridges burnin'
Wrong, they were wrong, and the wheels are turnin'
Over and over, they keep on learning
They're gonna make it through

Never say never
Nothing lasts forever
Life could be much better
But you have to just let go
Never say never
There's nothing to be scared of
And you don't have to give up
On something you don't know
Oh, no, no

They sold a Chevy for a Cadillac
Because a Cadillac looks better
They never bothered ever looking back
Because they thought they'd live forever

Gone, they were gone, and the bridges burnin'
Wrong, they were wrong, and the wheels are turnin'
Over and over, they keep on learning
They're gonna make it through

Never say never
Nothing lasts forever
Life could be much better
But you have to just let go
Never say never
There's nothing to be scared of
And you don't have to give up
On something you don't know

Well you're right back where you started
Sitting all alone
And this ain't what you wanted
You just let go

Never, never
Oh, never say never

Oh, yeah, yeah
No, never
Never say never

Oh, never
Nothing lasts forever
Life could be much better
But you have to just let go
Never say never
There's nothing to be scared of
And you don't have to give up
On something you don't know

Never... never...
Oh, never say never


7. I WANT YOU

I don't want to lose this good thing that I’ve got
If I do, I would surely, surely lose a lot
Cos your love is better than any love I know

It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
Think I'd better knock on wood, baby

I’m not superstitious about you, I can't take no chance
You got me spinning, baby, baby I’m in a trance
Cos your love is better than any love I know

It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
Think I'd better knock on wood, baby

Ain't no secret, that woman fills my loving cup
She sees to it that I get enough
Just one touch from her, you know can do so much

It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
Think I'd better knock on wood, baby

Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood
Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood
Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood
Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood
Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood
Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood


8. LIBERTY

Hit me!

Going to California, gonna make it happen
Gonna be a big star and downtown gigolo
Fly out to Memphis, something good for my soul
Havis always knew just how and where to go (Come on!)

Little darling
I need some liberty in my soul
Let's make it happen
I'm gonna try everything that I know
Little darling
I need some liberty in my soul
Let's make it happen
I wanna give you everything that I know (Oh yeah!)

Another misty morning, rock 'n' roll Seattle
We always have a good time here so we give 'em more
Laid up in Bargo, sit and watch the sun go
Thinking how I'm going to satisfy my libido (Do it!)

Little darling
I need some liberty in my soul
Let's make it happen
I'm gonna try everything that I know
Little darling
I need some liberty in my soul
Let's make it happen
I wanna give you everything that I know

Doo doo doo doo...
I need some liberty...
(Come on)

I got bills to pay (Hungry)
Out the door to work out something
Now I'm on my way (And fear every day)
Is getting harder lately in the jungle

Little darling
I need some liberty in my soul
Let's make it happen
I'm gonna try everything that I know
Little darling
I need some liberty in my soul
Let's make it happen
I wanna give you everything that I know

I need some freedom in my soul
Come on and show me what you know
I need some liberty
I need some liberty


9. OUR WORLD

(Eric Clapton & Paul McCartney)

Look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at the floor and I see it need sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know why someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

Look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know why you were inverted
No-one alerted you

Look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

Still my guitar gently weeps
While my guitar gently weeps
Still my guitar gently weeps
While my guitar gently weeps
Still my guitar gently weeps
While my guitar gently weeps
Still my guitar gently weeps


10. BLISS

Saying I love you is not the words
I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel

More than words
Is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me, cos I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words

Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands
And touch me, hold me close don't ever let me go

More than words
Is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me, cos I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words
More than words
More than words
More than words


11. DEAD

When I was a young god
I could live without the laws
I made my mess
I could live without you all

If I starve from breathing
I won't listen to the call
I made my bed, I'm committed
I am strong

They keep saying
My generation's dead

Dead, we are helpless
We have nothing and nothing's wrong
We're committed, we are hungry
We are strong
Dead, we are restless
We are broken but standing tall
We're devoted, we are driven
We are cause

I don't think that I suffered
I don't think I've learned at all
I get right back up and then I take another fall
My teachers told me something
They said that I would hit a wall
And if I keep it up I won't live to tell us all

They keep saying
My generation's dead

Dead, we are helpless
We have nothing and nothing's wrong
We're committed, we are hungry
We are strong
Dead, we are restless
We are broken but standing tall
We're devoted, we are driven
We are cause

Talking down to me
And our generation
Is this what you want to be?
A contradiction?

I don't think that I suffered
I don't think I've learned at all
I get right back up and then I take another fall

Oh yeah
We are dead
I am dead
Oh yeah
Dead
My generation's dead

Dead, we are helpless
We have nothing and nothing's wrong
We're committed, we are hungry
We are strong
Dead, we are restless
We are broken but standing tall
We're devoted, we are driven
We are cause

I am dead
Oh yeah
We are dead
Oh, dead
My generation's...
Oh yeah
Dead

Suck it

1. THESE THINGS (ACOUSTIC)

I want to know the truth
I want to hear it from you
Tell me what to do
Can we make it through?

It's always about
These things
Are killing me, they're tearing us apart
These things
You're telling me that this is what you want

Try and erase our mistakes
It's time for it all to change
I will try and prove
That I'm the one for you

It's always about
These things
Are killing me, they're tearing us apart
These things
You're telling me that this is what you want

Everything you said I erased from my mind
Now I'm crying all the year
If I could only find an escape I would try
Because I feel I'm being used
These things

How could I relate when we don't take the time
I just want to be with you
I will keep you safe but there's no way to hide
The truth

It's always about
These things
Are killing me, they're tearing us apart
These things
You're telling me that this is what you want

(These things)
Everything you said I erased from my mind
Now I'm crying all the year
If I could only find an escape I would try
Because I feel I'm being used
These things...


2. FIRE OFF YOUR GUNS (ACOUSTIC)

Worked so hard to find my way
Face my fears and enemies
Lost some friends but nothing gets me down
Learned a lot from all my tears
Fought the good fight all these years
You should know that nothing stops me now

Fire off your guns
And take your chances
Make it happen
'Cause it won't take me but one shot
And then you're down
Fire off your guns
You made a choice
I know you're broken
I'll be nice and give you four counts
And turn around
(4, 3, 2, 1)

I hold my future in my hands
It's not a rule, it's what I demand
I won't give up and I won't be turned around
The time has come to make a stand
And sacrifice all that you have
Victorious or buried in the ground

Fire off your guns
And take your chances
Make it happen
'Cause it won't take me but one shot
And you're down
(4, 3, 2, 1)
Fire off your guns
You made a choice
I know you're broken
I'll be nice and give you four counts
And turn around
(4, 3, 2, 1)

4, 3, 2, 1
4, 3, 2, 1
4, 3, 2, 1
4, 3, 2, 1

Fire off your guns
Fire off your guns

Fire off your guns
And take your chances
Make it happen
'Cause it won't take me but one shot
And you're down
(4, 3, 2, 1)
Fire off your guns
You made a choice
I know you're broken
I'll be nice and give you four counts
And turn around
(4, 3, 2, 1)
Fire off your guns
And take your chances
Make it happen
'Cause it won't take me but one shot
And you're down
(4, 3, 2, 1)
Fire off your guns
You made a choice
I know you're broken
I'll be nice and give you four counts
And turn around

4, 3, 2, 1
4, 3, 2, 1
4, 3, 2, 1

(No lyrics available)


4. KING OF KINGS

Drink down the water, one cup is all you get
Night time is calling, the sun is finally set
We take for granted all the trouble that we're in
Hard times are coming and we don't know how to win
So where do I begin?

We can find it, we can find a way
If your mind is open then there's no time left to waste
On and on and standing strong, we made a choice today
To never judge another and relieve us from our pain
It's the king of kings

Too many problems and we're turning back again
Fight for the power and there's nothing left to give
All that is wanted is a future for our kids
And leaders to follow and change the way we live
So where do I begin?

We can find it, we can find a way
If your mind is open then there's no time left to waste
On and on and standing strong, we made a choice today
To never judge another and relieve us from our pain
It's the king of kings

Love is all we need
Everybody free
Give it up for the king of kings

Love is all we need
Everybody free
Give it up for the king of kings
King of kings

We can find it, we can find a way
If your mind is open then there's no time left to waste
On and on and standing strong, we made a choice today
To never judge another and relieve us from our pain
It's the king of kings


5. MY FRIEND

Since I was a young man I've doing what I can
To escape the mental torture of my past
I have changed all my beliefs
But nothing seems to last
I need compassion, I need some patience
I need a friend

Do you want to be my friend?
Are you holding back again?
Your confessions are my sins
The war inside me has to end

Summer's fading and I am too
I wish I was somewhere else
I feel out of place
Wasting time spent by myself
Hotel rooms and solitude
And the songs left in my head
It's all I know but right now
Baby, I need a friend

Do you want to be my friend?
Are you holding back again?
Your confessions are my sins
The war inside me has to end

Do you want to be my friend?
I've been found out, I can't pretend
It won't stop 'til I begin
So do you want to be my friend?

Somebody told me today
Somebody said I might find my way to you
That I might find my way to you
That I might find my way to you
Somebody told me today
Somebody said I might find my way to you
That I might find my way to you
That I might find my way to you

Do you want to be my friend?
Are you holding back again?
Your confessions are my sins
The war inside me has to end


6. GRACE

I took a walk out to the station
Caught a train and ride to our location
Wanted you to know
The times are changin'
The same street signs
But different faces

We were only seventeen
We didn't know what life would bring
Now you're doing what you wanted
You got everything but you're broken hearted

Grace
What you doing out in the night?
What you doing out in the rain?
Will you ever surrender?
Your mama says that you're caught up in the fame

Remember how we used to like the same things?
Van Doren shoes and faded blue jeans
Sneaking out of the house for a late night movie
Smoked cigarettes, sit around, and daydream

Turn it up
The stereo
Without a care in this whole world
Always laughing
Never crying
It must be bad
'Cause you're always hiding

Grace
What you doing out in the night?
What you doing out in the rain?
Will you ever surrender?
Your mama says that you're caught up in the fame
It's the loneliest place to be
And it's never gonna set you free
Hope you always remember
That when you're down you can still come talk to me

I know it hurts
I know you don't believe
That you'll ever be happy
Ooo happy
You'll find out
In the end
That fame is a lover
But it's not a friend
And it's lonely
So what's it gonna be?

Grace
What you doing out in the night?
What you doing out in the rain?
Oh
Grace
What you doing out in the night?
What you doing out in the rain?
Don't you know that your mama says
You're caught up in the fame
It's the loneliest place to be
And it's never gonna set you free
And when you're down
You know that you can still come talk to me
You can still come talk to me
You can still come talk to me

You can still come talk to me


7. SORRY

Oh I had a lot to say was thinking on my time away
I missed you and things weren't the same

[Pre-Chorus:]
Cause everything inside it never comes out right
And when I see you cry it makes me want to die

[Chorus:]
I'm sorry I'm bad, I'm sorry you're blue, I'm sorry about all things I said to you
And I know I can't take it back
I love how you kiss, I love all your sounds, and baby the way you make my world go round
And I just wanted to say I'm sorry:

This time I think I'm to blame it's harder to get through the days
You get older and blame turns to shame

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Every single day I think about how we came all this way
The sleepless nights and the tears you cried it's never too late to make it right
Oh yeah sorry!

[Chorus]
