1. HANG TOUGH

Took a shot to the chin.
Looks like you just can't win
In this do or die situation.
And it's harder than it seems
To survive, keep alive and make your dreams,
Make your dreams all come true.

You gotta, you gotta give it your best shot.
Give it ev'rything you got.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hang tough, hang tough.

Sometimes love can make you blue.
A heartache made just for you.
But you can't let it bring ya down.
If you should stumble, if you should fall,
Pick yourself up off the floor.
Fight for what's right and stand your ground.

You gotta give it your best shot.
Give it ev'rything you got.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hang tough, hang tough.
When the goin' gets rough.
Hang tough, you got to give it all you've got.
Hang tough, keep your head above the ground.
Don't you let it get you down.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hey! oh! hey! oh!

You stay locked away inside your room
'Cause you don't know what this world is comin' to.
Hummingbird hums 'cause he don't know the words
And the piper will play 'cause he don't know what to say.
He's a lot like you, yeah, oh, he's a lot like you, yeah.
He tries hard ev'ry day to be free and fly away, yeah!

Hang tough, oh, when the goin' gets rough.
Hang tough, you've got to give it all you got.
Hang tough, keep your head above the ground.
Don't you let it get you down.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.

Hang tough, oh, you got to give it all you got, you gotta
Hang tough, don't you let it get you down.
Hang tough, no! oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hang tough
Hang tough!


2. LADY LUCK

With a snap in her style and a click in her heels.
In seconds flat my heart she could steal.
Lookin' ev'ry bit of a where it's at.
More like breakfast, lunch and dinner, as a matter of fact.
There she stood in living color, standin' all alone.
So i walked up to her, i say, "how do you do?"
And she said, "i don't".

Lady luck took a walk.
When all i wanted was some company.
Lady luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.
Hard as it seems, but not as hard to believe.
What can it be?
I guess i'm on a losin' streak.

And i know it's true, i got a bad attitude.
But i'm down on my luck, bitch, tell me, what's your excuse?
Tell me now.

Lady luck took a walk.
When all i wanted was some company.
Lady luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.

Lady luck took a walk.
When all i wanted was some company.
Lady luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.

Lady luck (lady luck) took a walk...


3. HEAVEN'S TRAIL (NO WAY OUT)

You know i'm on a slick trip, i'm always ready to kick ass
Up on the stage i'm in a rage, i'm havin' the time of my life
Yes, indeed, what a sweet, sweet life it is

Until some loco two-bit floosie with a Louie Le-Strange
Ain't good for nothin' but trouble
They're just two fools livin' up to their names
And now it's startin' to rain on my parade

You know there's nothin' like the real world to get me down
There's nothin' like the world outside that turns me upside down
It makes me feel like i'm headin' down a one-way, dead-end street

There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell, livin' hell

You know i had it made in the shade, thinkin' that it's not so bad after all
That's when i woke up, smelled the coffee, i'm back where i started again, yes
And now it's pourin' rain on my parade

No there's nothin' like the real world to get me down, no
One is there to lift you up, one to drag you down
Now, don't you see that we're heading down a one-way, dead-end street

There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell, livin' hell

There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell - i guess i'll live in hell

There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell, livin' hell

Yes, it's a beautiful thing

You know, i'm on a slick trip, i'm always ready to kick ass


4. BE A MAN

Bustin' ass all day
Just to put food on the table.
And i always will for as long as i am able.
Done all i could,
Ev'rything that a man should do.
Still they refuse to call me,
Call me what i am, hey!

Do you know what it takes to be a man?
Don't take a whole lots of money,
Diamond rings upon your hand, no.
That ain't what it takes to be a man.
Do right by the ones you love,
Always give a helpin' hand, yes, i do.

Now i've been through it all
Seen the good, the bad, the ugly.
Always take care of my share of responsibilities.
Now, just because i grow my hair
And play in a rockin' band,
Old folks are always telling me,
"Boy, why don't you grow up
And be a man", hey!

I know what it takes to be a man.
It ain't the way you look
Or the clothes that you wear.
That ain't what it takes to be a man.
Do right by the ones you love,
Always lend a helpin' hand.

I know i got what it takes,
I know i got what it takes to be a man.
So go ahead and say what you will.
Because i know what i am,
Just what i am, ow!

Alright, ow! hey!

I know what it takes to be a man.
I've got what it takes
And you know i know what i am.
I know what it takes to be a man.
So go ahead, say what you will
'Cause i know what i am.
I'm a man.
Hoo hoo hoo hoo. i'm a man.
I know i got what it takes,
I know i got what it takes, ow!


5. LAZY DAYS, CRAZY NIGHTS

I'm feelin' so much better.
But not quite feelin' fine.
Now, i've got to get my shit together,
Still, little bit closer to the line.

But i love those lazy days and crazy nights.
It's my way, it's my life.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
I'm doin' fine right here on borrowed time.

Needless for you to worry,
No use in losin' sleep.
Now, i really do appreciate it.
For all your concern for me.

But i love those lazy days and crazy nights.
It's my way, it's my life.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
I'm doin' fine right here on borrowed time.

Ridin' through stormy weather.
So high i can't look down.
Still i've got to get it together
'Cause i'm lost in the lost in found.

But i love those lazy days and crazy nights.
It's my way, it's my life.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
Lazy days and crazy nights.
Give it to me. lazy days and crazy nights.
Can't do without those lazy days and crazy nights.
Now, i'm doin' fine right here on borrowed t-t-t-time.


6. DID IT FOR THE MONEY

Down on the corner, walkin' the streets.
She smiles for ev'ryone she meets.
He's not a man, no, he's just another trick.
She'd do it all just to get that fix.
Did you do it for love?
Did you do it in the name of love?
No, it ain't love she's gonna find.
She's got just one thing on her mind:

Money, she did, she did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.

Cold in the city with the traffic slow.
He's got nobody, no place to call home.
Takin' hard earned money from a poor, helpless soul.
Didn't do it for love.
Didn't do it in the name of love.
No, it ain't love he's out to find.
He's got just one thing on his mind:

Money, he did, he did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.

And the young girl, she gets down on her knees, she's there to please.
She wants her money.
And then the young man says, "now, put your hands in the air.
Give me what i want, give me what i need, now don't you see?
All i want, all i want, all i want is your money, yeah. Give it to me!"

He's got the money, left the scene of the crime.
Not a clue would he leave behind.
One's bad misfortune make for another's eats.
And now the young girl's trick's his treat.

Money. He did, he did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.
For the money, he did it, did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.


7. YESTERDAZE GONE

Yesterdaze gone.
Why did she go, where'd i go wrong?
Is it somethin' that i said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?

It's gonna be alright.
It's gonna be o.k.
All i need is somebody to squeeze
To forget about yesterday, and i

Try (try, try) to forget her.
And i'm told
The sooner the better

Yesterdaze gone
Why did she go, where'd i go wrong?
Is it somethin' that i said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?

Day after day,
Night after night,
I'll keep on lookin' till i find a way
To get her off my mind, and you know i

Try (try, try) to forget her.
And i'm told
The sooner the better

Yesterdaze gone
Why did she go, where'd i go wrong?
Is it somethin' that i said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?

It's gonna be alright.
It's gonna be o.k.
All i need is somebody to squeeze
To forget about yesterday, and i

Try (try, try) to forget her.
And i'm told
The sooner the better

Yesterdaze gone
Why did she go, where'd i go wrong?
Is it somethin' that i said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?
Why did she go and leave me lost,
Why did she go and leave me lost, lost in yesterday?

Somehow, someway, you know i'll make it through another day.


8. MAKIN' MAGIC

Now, i don't wanna waste your time,
I only want to satisfy.
So wind me up and watch me go,
I'm gettin' crazy as the night unfolds.

Gimme, gimme what i want,
Keep it up now, don't stop,
And i will do the same for you.
I'm gonna take it over the top.

What you see ain't what you get,
There's more than meets the eye.
'Cause you ain't seen nothin' yet.
It's up to us, me and you,
Together we can fly high, high.

I got you, now you got me.
Feels so good to be
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery. Come on!

Get down, way down low.
C'mon let's get on with the show.
And let the music set you free.
Like a leaf in the wind, let it be.
Gimme what i need to satisfy
This dirty one-track mind.
You know i ain't got nothin' but time
To burn with you tonight.

Now anything you see is everything you get
At your desire.
I know it's makin' you hot and know it's soakin' me wet.
Higher and higher, feedin' the fire,
Let it burn.

He's got her and she's hot and you got me.
Don't it taste so sweet!
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery.
Now, when i get into you, get into me.
The rest is history.
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
Let's get it together, c'mon.
Ready, get set, just like one two and three!

Now it's taking me away to that magical land.
Many will search and never find what's yours and mine.

You got me burnin' hot, now you're soakin' me wet.
Even better thana lick and a kiss.
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery.
Now, you think you've seen it all.
You ain't seen nothin' yet.
It sure beats the rest.
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery.


9. THE WAY IT IS

Doesn't matter who gets the best of who, or who can hurt who the most, no
It never was meant for it to be that way, never should be that way at all

The way it is, that's the way that it goes, happenin' day after day, yes
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the strangest ways

Even though we could never seem to work things out
I still love you just the same, i do
I miss your smile and that sparkle in your eyes
You're so beautiful, never change!

The way it is, that's the way that it goes, happenin' day after day, yes
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the strangest ways

What it is, and what it was, what shall be shall be, yeah
Sometimes it happens in the strangest ways
Sometimes it's hard to believe (do you believe?)
Do you believe, can you believe?

The way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the, workin' in the strangest ways

Now it really don't matter who, who gets the best of who
It never did and it never will, no
It never was meant for it to be that way, why must it be that way at all?

The way it is, that's the way that it goes, happenin' day after day, yeah yeah
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes

That's the way it is, that's the way it is, yeah yeah yeah
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes, yes it do


10. FLIGHT TO NOWHERE

Look at me, i'm young and bold.
Even though i may be growin' old,
I'm never slowin' down.
No, i won't slow down.
I feel like dynamite, i'm ready to explode.
Amplifier pushin' overload.
Outta touch with reality
To the point of insanity, yeah.

Goin' down on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.
Goin' down, i'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.

Opinion is a piece of mind.
Some are good, some are just like
Where the sun don't shine.
You know sometimes they can [stink] out loud, yeah.
Now, the more you look, the more you're gonna find.
More than enough to blow your mind.
It's such a mess, it's a cryin' shame.
And we've only got ourselves to blame.

Goin' down on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.
Goin' down, i'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.

So just stop, let me off.
Seems that i can't get my point across to you.
I know you're listening,
But i'm just not getting through, yeah, yeah.

Now there's one more thing i would like to say:
This is everybody's world and everybody's
Gonna live it their own way,
No matter what we say, yeah!
Now the headlines read all across the land
'Bout the motherfuckers gettin' way outta hand.
Troubled minds are full of hate,
Willin' to destroy the human race.

Goin' down, i'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.
I'm goin' down, i'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.

Goin' down, on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.
Goin' down, i'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.

That your love has fin'lly reached the end.
Any time you call, night or day,

It's gonna take a little time.
Time is sure to mend your broken heart.
Don't you even worry, pretty darlin'.

Hold me close now, hold me tight, and don't let go of me tonight
Sweet paradise, yeah

You're the one for me
Darlin', dry your eyes, i can't stand to see you cry
Now just turn and walk away, don't look back when I say goodbye paradise

Days go by and life goes on, i feel i've been away too long
What i would give to be with you, days go by and life drags on
Feel i've been away too long, for much too long, yeah

And all the while that i'm away, don't let our love fade away
Don't you fade away
Now as sure as the sun is gonna shine, the day will come

13. PARTY'S OVER

It's the same old song and dance,
You're askin' me for a second chance.
I don't care, baby, what you say,
All i wanna do is gotta get away.

Been too many times callin' out your name,
You promised me, but you never came.
Was it, baby, all a game to you? yeah.
After all the things that i've done for you,
Say your love, your love, could not be true.
I don't need nobody like you.

So turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights, the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Tonight i wanna dance to a brand new tune.

You know, it took so long for me to realize
You got a cheatin' heart full of dirty lies.
Now listen baby, i got news for you.
Now don'tcha come knockin' on my door.
'Cause i don't want your love no more.
I don't need nobody like you.

So turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Tonight i wanna dance to rock and roll.

I guess it must-a been you were so caught up
That you didn't even notice we were fallin apart.
Now you played the game, now you play the fool.
I don't need nobody like you.
I don't want it. i don't need it.
No, no, nobody like you, all i got to say.

So turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over for you.
