1. Caroline

If you want to turn me on to
Now anything you really want to
Turn me on to your love
Sweet love

If the night time is the right time
Oh anytime of yours is my time
We can find time for love
Sweet love

Come on sweet Caroline
You're my sweet Caroline
You know I wanna take ya
I really gotta make ya
Come on sweet Caroline
Take my hand, together we can rock'n'roll

When I'm thinking of you sleeping
I'm at home alone and weeping
Are you keeping your love
Sweet love

Do you still care when I'm not there
Now do you really wish I was there
Can I come there for love
Sweet love

Come on sweet Caroline
You're my sweet Caroline
You know I wanna take ya I really gotta make ya
Come on sweet Caroline
Take my hand, together we can rock'n'roll

If you want to turn me on to
Now anything you rally want to
Turn me on to your love
Sweet love

Come on sweet Caroline
You're my sweet Caroline
You know I wanna take ya
I really gotta make ya
Come on sweet Caroline
Take my hand, together we can rock'n'roll

2. I Fought The Law

Breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I needed money 'cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I miss my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

Robbin' people with a six-gun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and I miss fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I miss my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law

I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law

I miss my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

3. Born To Be Wild

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah darlin', go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

I like smoke and lightning
Heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind
And the feelin' that I'm under
Yeah Darlin' gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah darlin', gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

I like smoke and lightning
Heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind
And the feelin' that I'm under
Yeah Darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

4. Takin' Care Of Business

You get up every morning from your alarm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above and people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time you can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
And if you ever get annoyed look at me I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day

And I'll be
Taking care of business every day
Taking care of business every way
I've been taking care of business, it's all mine
Taking care of business and working overtime
Work out

If it were easy as fishin' you could be a musician
I if you could make sounds loud or mellow
Get a second-hand guitar, chances are you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows
People see you having fun just a-lying in the sun
Tell them that you like it this way
It's the work that we avoid and we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day

And we'll be
Taking care of business every day
Taking care of business every way
I've been taking care of business, it's all mine
Taking care of business and working overtime

You get up every morning from your alarm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above and people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time you can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
And if you ever get annoyed look at me I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day

And I'll be
Taking care of business every day
Taking care of business every way
I've been taking care of business, it's all mine
Taking care of business and working overtime
Work out

Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business, business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business

5. Wild One

Well I'm just outta school
Like I'm real real cool
Gotta dance like a fool
Get the message that
I wanna be a wild one
Ooh yeah I'm a wild one
I gotta break it loose
Gonna keep it movin' wild
Gonna keep on swingin', baby
I'm a real wild child

Gonna meet all my friends
gonna have myself a ball
Gonna tell my friends
Gonna tell them all
That I'm a wild one
Ooh yeah, I'm a wild one.
Gonna break it loose
Gonna keep a movin' wild
Gonna keep a swingin' baby
I'm a real wild child.

Yeah I'm a wild one

I'm a real wild one
and I like wild fun
In a world gone crazy
Everything seems hazy
I'm a wild one
Ooh yeah, I'm a wild one.
Gonna break it loose
Gonna keep a movin' wild
Gonna keep a swingin', baby
I'm a real wild child

Yeah, I'm a wild one

Yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, I'm a wild one
Gonna break it loose
Gonna keep a movin' wild
Gonna keep a-swingin', baby
I'm a real wild child

I'm a wild one
Yeah I'm a wild one
I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, I'm a wild one!
Gonna break loose
Gonna keep a movin' wild
Gonna keep a swingin', baby
I'm a real wild child.

6. On The Road Again

Well, I'm so tired of crying,
But I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again.
Well, I'm so tired of crying,
But I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again
I ain't got no woman
Just to call my special friend

You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
I didn't have no payroll,
Not even no place to go

And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
She said "Lord, have mercy
On my wicked son"

Take a hint from me, mama,
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more.
Take a hint from me, mama,
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more.
'Cause it's soon one morning
Down the road I'm going

But I aint going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
But I aint going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby,
Gonna carry somebody else

I can't carry you, baby,
Gonna carry somebody else
I can't carry you, baby,
Gonna carry somebody else
On the road again

On the road again
On the road again....

7. Tobacco Road

I was born in a bunk
Mama died and my daddy got drunk
Left me here to die or grow
In the middle of Tobacco Road

I grew up in a dusty shack
And all I had was a'hangin' on my back
Only you know how I loathe
This place called Tobacco Road

But it's home
The only life I've ever known
Only you know how I loathe
Tobacco Road

I'm gonna leave and get a job
With the help and the grace from above
Save some money, get rich I know
Bring it back to Tobacco Road

Bring dynamite and a crane
Blow itup, start all over again
Build a town, be proud to show
Give the name Tobacco Road

Cause it's home
The only life I've ever known
I despise you 'cos your filthy
But I love ya, 'cause it's home

8. Centerfold

Does she walk? Does she talk?
Does she come complete?
My homeroom homeroom angel always pulled me from my seat
She was pure like snowflakes, no one could ever stain
The memory of my angel could never cause me pain
The years go by and I'm looking through some girlie magazine
And there's my hometown angel on the pages in between

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
My angel is a centerfold, angel is a centerfold
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
Angel is a centerfold

Slipping notes, under the desk
While I was thinking about her dress
I was shy, I turned away, before she caught my eye
I was shakin' in my shoes whenever she flashed those baby
blues
Something had a hold on me when Angel passed close by
Those soft and fuzzy sweaters, so magical to touch
To see her in that negligee is really just too much.

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
My angel is a centerfold, angel is a centerfold
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
Angel is a centerfold

Come on
Nah nah nah nah nah nah....

It's okay, I understand
This ain't no never-never land
I hope that when this issue's gone
I'll see you when your clothes are on
Take your car, yes we will, we'll take your car and drive it
Take it to a hotel room, and get 'em off in private
A part of me has just been ripped
The pages from my mind are stripped
Oh no, I can't deny it
Oh yeah, I guess I got to buy it

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
My angel is a centerfold, angel is a centerfold
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
Angel is a centerfold

Come on
Nah nah nah nah nah nah.....

Nah nah nah nah nah nah.....
[repeat to fade]

9. All Day And All Of The Night

I'm not content to be with you in the daytime
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
The only time I feel alright is by your side

Girl I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night

10. Don't Bring Me Down

You got me running going out of my mind
You got me thinking me that I'm wasting my time

11. Juniors 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

Put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun
I said, put your arms around me like a sunbeam round the sun

12. Pump It Up

I've been on tenterhooks
Ending in dirty looks,
Listen to the muzak,
Thinking 'bout this 'n' that.
She said that's that.
I don't wanna chitter-chat.
Turn it down a little bit
Or turn it down flat.

Pump it up, when you don't really need it.
Pump it up, until you can feel it.

Down in the pleasure centre,
Hell bent or heaven sent,
Listen to the propaganda,
Listen to the latest slander.
There's nothing underhand
That she wouldn't understand.

Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really need it.

She's been a bad girl.
She's like a chemical.
Though you try to stop it,
She's like a narcotic.
You wanna torture her.
You wanna talk to her.
All the things you bought for her,
Putting up your temperature.

Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really need it.

Out in the fashion show,
Down in the bargain bin,
You put your passion out
Under the pressure pin.
Fall into submission,
Hit-and-run transmission.
No use wishing now for any other sin.

Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really need it.

Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really need it.

Pump it up, until you can feel it.
Pump it up, when you don't really need it.
You don't really need it

You don't really need it

You don't really need it

13. 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.....

14. Whatever You Want

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

You're showing off
You're showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout
I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

You're showing off
You're showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout
I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

Whatever you want

15. Rockin' All Over The World

Ah here we are and here we are and here we go
All aboard and we're hitting the road
Here we go, rockin' all over the world

Ah giddy-up and giddy-up and get away
We're going crazy and we're going today
Here we go, rockin' all over the world

Here we go, rockin' all over the world

And I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it

Here we go, rockin' all over the world

And I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it
I li-li-like it, li-li-like
Here we go, rockin' all over the world
