Treat Me Right
02:40
|
|||
|
Treat me right, baby, I won't treat you wrong
Treat me right, baby, I won't treat you wrong
I can't love you, baby, 'til your man is gone.
Hold me close, or baby don't hold me at all
Hold me close, or baby don't hold me at all
Love slips through a loose grip, and I'm bound to fall.
Don't tell me lies, don't leave me feeling black and blue
Whispered words of how your love for me is true
If you can't treat me right, I can't keep on loving you.

I have never let you down
But you can't keep pulling my heart around.
There's nothing that I would not do
For just one night away with you
My mind aches, my heart breaks
Baby please come back to me
On a lonely midnight stroll
No companion but the bitter cold.
She stole my heart when she left me
The Prettiest Thief that I have ever seen.
My mind aches, my heart breaks
Baby please come back to me
Can't go back, we can't move on
Can't cut the track with all these scars
But if you could only see
The wicked shape in which you left me.
My mind aches, my heart breaks
Baby please come back to me

Wicked Woman
04:28
|
|||
|
You see her creeping in the night
With nothing but a thought
You can't make shadows without light
And her flame is hot
Wicked Woman
Wicked Woman
Darkness slipping through her fingers
Permeates the air
Reignite the spark that lingers
No evil can compare
Wicked Woman
Wicked Woman
Reminisce on days gone by
Wrong can't be undone
Take the darkness if you try
Wicked has won
Wicked Woman
Wicked Woman

Dreamily
05:39
|
|||
|
Just another moment alone in my head
Before I can break away for what lies ahead
Sometimes it seems to me, at no fault of my own
The cost of this moment is more than what's shown.
And I won't deny, this is not what I had in mind
And to my surprise, this world is not paradise.
I don't belong in this world that I'm in
It's just that I'm too far gone. How do I begin again?
And I won't deny, this is not what I had in mind
But won't it be nice to wake to my paradise.
Dreamily it comes to me, I'm not all I dreamt I could be
When I wake I hope you see a better man than I use to be
Dreamily it comes to me, I'm not all I dreamt I could be
When I wake I hope you see a better man than I used to be.
Stuck in a moment, though not my intention
Bound by a wistful heed, a conscious abstention.
And I won't deny, this is not what I had in mind
But what will suffice is being more than alive
Dreamily it comes to me, I'm not all I dreamt I could be
When I wake I hope you see a better man than I use to be
Dreamily it comes to me, I'm not all I dreamt I could be
When I wake I hope you see a better man than I used to be.

Quarantine Blues
04:16
|
|||
|
Take me back to better days
When the sun shined high
When the rain brought summer rays
As it washed on by
I'm tired of living life in quarantine
Won't you please come and rescue me
Isolation is killing me
Driving me insane
Had about all I can take
Of meals in cellophane
I'm tired of living life in quarantine
Won't you please come and rescue me
Prisoner inside my own my mind
Fugitive of life
Hurts me down so deep inside
Cuts me like a knife
I'm tire of living life in quarantine
Won't you please come and rescue me

Highwayman
03:28
|
|||
|
Down on the highway on the eastern shore
All through the valley to the western ward
The Highwayman, running down the fool, the Highwayman
Stand and deliver your goods, gold, and girl
He won't take her hostage, she'll follow of her own accord
A smooth operator, a devil with a silver tongue
It's no competition. It's all for his own fun
Don't try fight him, the brawl's already won
You can't help but like him, your girl's as good as gone
Down on the highway no man is free to roam
All through the valley, the highway's his home
The Highwayman, running down the fool, the Highwayman

The Refugee
04:40
|
|||
|
A cold damp night, feeling low
The winter wind's a stinging blow
The evening comes just to remind
The Refugee, he's out of time
The Refugee, a heavy soul
On the run with nowhere to go
The night ensues, relentless and cruel
Bound restraints of its only rule
No time for the Refugee, no love or sympathy
The night has come for the day
There can't be light and in the dead of night
No man can find his way
No time for the Refugee, no love or sympathy
The night has come for the day
There can't be light and in the dead of night
No man can find his way
The Refugee has lost his way
Runs no more, lets come what may
A hopeless soul in an unfair fight
The Refugee gives way to the night
No time for the Refugee, no love or sympathy
The night has come for the day
There can't be light and in the dead of night
No man can find his way
No time for the Refugee, no love or sympathy
The night has come for the day
There can't be light and in the dead of night
The Refugee lost his way

Waiting
04:06
|
|||
|
Waiting on a another song
Time keeps on moving along
Maybe just one more day
A melody is gonna find our way
In every moment you can find
Just a little peace of mind
I get this feeling down deep inside
That maybe, just maybe, we'll be alright
Waiting for a sign
To show me the way to the finish line
And I know it won't be long
I'll hum my tune and sing my song
In every moment you can find
Just a little peace of mind
ooh
I get this feeling down deep inside
That maybe, just maybe, we'll be
maybe just maybe we'll be alright.

No Evil Love
05:05
|
|||
|
No one knows what it is you've been through
And those scars are not what define you
It's not about what's been done
But where you go once you know you've won
Gone away are the pains of years past
What remains are the stains that may last
There's no last lap in this race
So don't let it go to waste
There's a price that's been paid by a man
Cast away by the hole of his hand
Now replaced by a mourning dove
There can be no evil love

She's My Everything
03:50
|
|||
|
Can't help but sing about the way you make me feel
Can't help but sing about the way you make me feel
Too good to be true, baby, I can't tell what's real
Treats me better than a queen would treat a king
Treats me better than a queen would treat a king
I'm her all, she's my everything
Kisses sweeter than a sugar coated dream
Kisses sweeter than a sugar coated dream
Love so good, darlin', there's no in between
Hold her in my arms late at night
It's oh so good, feels oh so right
Morning comes with the light it brings
That morning dew, the birds that sing
I'm her all, she's my everything.
She's my breeze in the summer heat
When autumn falls, she's my evergreen
I don't care what the winter brings
Cause she'll keep me warm all through 'til spring
I'm her all, she's my everything
The way I feel, baby, I can't help but sing
The way I feel, I can't help but sing
I'm her all, she's my everything

Trouble
05:55
|
|||
|
Trouble, trouble on my mind
There ain't no use, ain't no use in trying
To ease my mind of aches and pains
Trouble with me all of my days
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
I've been mistreated for far too long
My only peace is singing my song.
So pray for me, Lord hear my plea
This trouble of mine won't let me be.
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
This trouble of mine won't let me be.
It hurts so bad I could not see
That my own trouble is but a coal
In a world on fire of tortured souls
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind
Trouble, Trouble, Trouble on my mind

Excuses
08:09
|

|
You've got no more excuses, baby
So now tell me where have you been?
You've got no more excuses, baby
So tell me where have you been?
I've never seen two as close as you
And that man who's "just a friend."
You come home early in the morning
With a brand new reason why
You come home early in the morning
With a brand new reason why
But I've heard this same old story, babe
It's just packaged in a new disguise.
Every time I trust you, baby
You make me out to be the fool
Every time I trust you, baby
You make me out to be the fool
And just as soon as I learn my lesson
You send me right back to school.
Don't try to change my mind
'Cause you'll never change your ways
Don't try to change my mind
'Cause you'll never change your ways
You've got no more excuses, baby
So save your breath and walk away
