1. JUNIOR'S WAILING

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
I said love me baby, love me when I'm down
Yeah you gotta love me baby
'cos there's no use hanging around

I said put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
I said put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
Yeah, you gotta love me woman
'cos my life has just begun

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh, love, love me baby, love me when I'm down
Yeah you gotta love me baby
'cos there's no use hanging around

Put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
I said, put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
You gotta love me woman
'cos my life has just begun

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh, love, love, love me baby, love me when I'm down
You gotta love me baby
'cos there's no use hanging around, around, around, yeah

Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Love me baby, love me when I'm down
Oh you gotta love me baby
'cos there's no use hanging around


2. 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


3. IN MY CHAIR

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


4. 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


5. DON'T WASTE MY TIME

You spend my money, you drink my best red wine
You think it's funny to see me all the time
Sitting with my head hanging down
You treat me just like a clown
You spend my money but honey you sure needn't waste my time

When you get older you'll see what you have done
You hung on my shoulder and loved me just for fun
Someday when I'm older too
I'm gonna come and make a fool out of you
You spend my money, but honey you sure needn't waste my time

You spend my money, you drink my best red wine
You think it's funny to see me all the time
Sitting with my head hanging down
You treat me just like a clown
You spend my money but honey you sure needn't waste my time


6. PAPER PLANE

Riding on a big white butterfly
I turned my back away towards the sky
I closed my eyes to look for something
Saw myself as really nothing
Then I realised my butterfly
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my butterfly

Riding on a long blue paperplane
Getting seasick, sorry once again
Landing strip is getting nearer
Hope the foglifts, make it clearer
Then I realised my paperplane
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my paperplane

Riding in a three grand Deutche car
A to B is often very far
Home is near, but such a long way
Legs and heads all feel the wrong way
Then I realised my Deutche car
Is only there to get me somewhere
Even so I really do care
Would you like to ride my Deutche car


7. ROADHOUSE BLUES

Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse
We're gonna have a real good time

Yeah, the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
Yeah, the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
That's sort of people like to go down slow

Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, all night long

Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse
We're gonna have a real good time

In the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
At the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
That's sort of people like to go down slow

Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, all night long

You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta ease my soul, all right
You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta jump up and get me baby
I know you want me baby

You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta ease my soul, all right
I shoulda made you, I shoulda made you
Give up your vows, give up your vows

Save my city, save my city
Right now, oh baby, baby I woke up this morning,
I got myself a beer
I woke up this morning, and I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain, and the end is always near

Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll

All night long


8. JOHNNY BE GOOD

Well she drew out all her money from the Southern trust
And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus
Leaving Louisiana for the golden west
Down came the tears from her happiness
Her own little son, named Johnny B. Goode
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood

I said bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye bye-bye,
I said bye-bye Johnny, bye-bye Johnny B. Goode

She remembered taking money out from gathering crops
And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
As long as he would play it by the railroad side
And wouldn't get in trouble she'd be satisfied
Never thought there'd ever come a day like this
When she had to give her son a goodbye kiss

I said bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye bye-bye,
I said bye-bye Johnny, bye-bye Johnny B. Goode

Well she finally got the letter she was dreaming of
Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
And build a mansion for them by the railroad track
Every time she heard a locomotive roar
She'd be standing and a-waiting by the kitchen door

I said bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye bye-bye,
I said bye-bye Johnny, bye-bye Johnny B. Goode

I said bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye bye-bye,
I said bye-bye Johnny, bye-bye Johnny B. Goode
I said bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye bye-bye,
I said bye-bye Johnny, bye-bye Johnny B. Goode
