THE
MORE THINGS CHANGE
Woke
up this morning on the wrong side of bed
I
got this feeling like a train's running through my head
Turned
on my radio to the same old song
Some
big mouth talking trying to tell
Us
where the world went wrong
But
all this talk of peace and love
It's
only for the news
Cause
everytime you trust someone
You
end up getting screwed
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
Everyone's
your brother till you
Turn
the other way
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
All
we need's a miracle
To
take us all away from the pain
Came
to this morning I was feeling
Mighty
used
Picked
up the telephone but all I got's
A
major attitude
Turned
on the TV to the same old news
Everybody
thinks they got the answer
To
the same old blues
Like
a hot smokin' pistol
On
a Saturday night
You
gotta go for the throat
You
gotta fight for your life
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
Everyone's
your brother till you
Turn
the other way
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
All
we need's a miracle
To
take us all away from the pain
Take
me away
Like
a hot smokin' pistol
On
a saturday night
You
gotta go for the throat
You
gotta fight for your life
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
Everyone's
your brother till you
Turn
the other way
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
All
we need's a miracle
To
take us all away
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
Everyone's
your brother till you
Turn
the other way
The
more things change
The
more they stay the same
All
we need's a miracle
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
The
more things change
LOVE'S
GOT ME DOIN TIME
Have
mercy on a poor boy's heart
Cause
I got the key that can
Make
your motor start
Can't
you love me
Without
messin' me around
You
took everything I got
Then
kick me when I'm down
Ooo,
got this funny feeling
That
you ain't on the level
I
look into those eyes
But
all I see's the devil
I
heard through the vine
That
you might not be mine
Don't
lock me up
I
can't pay the fine
Make
up your mind
Before
you make me lose mine
Your
love's got me doin' time
Have
mercy on a poor boy's soul
I've
been down so long
Never
thought I could feel so low
First
you love me
Then
you stab my back
Close
the door, turn the key
All
I can see is black
Ooo,
got this funny feeling
That
you ain't on the level
I
look into those eyes
But
all I see's the devil
I
heard through the vine
That
you might not be mine
Don't
lock me up
I
can't pay the fine
Make
up your mind
Before
you make me lose mine
Your
love's got me doin' time
Love's
got me doin'
Love's
got me doin' time
Love's
got me doin'
Love's
got me doin' time
So
what's a poor boy supposed to do
I've
done everything I can
I've
been so true
You
got a mean streak
Like
an alley cat
You
sucked all the love from me
Like
a vampire bat
Ooo,
got this funny feeling
That
you ain't on the level
I
look into those eyes
But
all I see's the devil
I
heard through the vine
That
you might not be mine
Don't
lock me up
I
can't pay the fine
Make
up your mind
Before
you make me lose mine
Your
love's got me doin' time
Love's
got me doin'
Love's
got me doin' time
Love's
got me doin'
Love's
got me doin' time
Love's
got me doin'
Love's
got me doin' time
SHELTER
ME
Everybody
needs a little place they can hide
Somewhere
to call their own
Don't
let nobody inside
Every
now and then we all need to let go
For
some it's the doctor
For
me it's rock and roll
For
some it's a bottle
For
some it's a pill
Some
people wave the bible
Cause
it's giving them a thrill
Others
point their finger
If
they don't like what they see
If
you live in a glass house
Don't
be throwing rocks at me
We
all need a little shelter
Just
a little helper to get us by
We
all need a little shelter
Just
a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
Check
out Mr. Politician in his suit and tie
But
when the doors are closed
There
ain't nothin' he won't try
Meanwhile
Mr. Medicine's
Treating
his best friend's wife
Tipper
led the war against the record industry
She
said she saw the devil on her MTV
To
look into the cabinet
It
takes more than a key
Just
like Jimmy's skeletons
And
his ministry
We
all need a little shelter
Just
a little helper to get us by
We
all need a little shelter
Just
a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
Hit
it now
For
some it's the needle
For
some it's the kill
Some
people wave the bible
Cause
it's giving them a thrill
You
can spend your money
Before
you get your pay
With
a toss of the dice
You
can piss it all away
We
all need a little shelter
Just
a little helper to get us by
We
all need a little shelter
Just
a little helper ooo, and it'll be alright
HEARTBREAK
STATION
Waiting
at the station
Tears
filling up my eyes
Sometimes
the pain you hide
Burns
like a fire inside
Look
out my window
Sometimes
it's hard to see
The
things you want in life
Come
and go so easily
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart ooo, ooo
She
took the last train
And
now I think I'll make
A
brand new start
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart
Watching
the days go by
Thinking
'bout the plans we made
Days
turn into years
Funny
how they fade away
Sometimes
I think of those days
Sometimes
I just hide away
Waiting
on that 9:20 train
Waiting
on a memory
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart ooo, ooo
She
took the last train
And
now I think I'll make
A
brand new start
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart
My
lady's on the fly
And
she's never coming back
My
love is like a steam train
Rolling
down the tracks yea, yea
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart ooo, ooo
She
took the last train
And
now I think I'll make
A
brand new start
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart ooo, ooo
She
took the last train
And
now I think I'll make
A
brand new start
She
took the last train
Out
of my heart
SICK
FOR THE CURE
There
used to be a time
When
I thought I had the answers
Answers
to the questions
That
nobody knew
Used
to be a time
When
I had some time
But
when I had the time
I
didn't know what to do
Wasted
all those years
Never
gettin' any younger
Times
kept a changin'
But
I still got the hunger
Only
trouble is
The
walls are closing in
Sometimes
I want to
Give
it all away
I
just want to be free
Free
like the wind
And
if the wind fills my sails
Then
I'm never coming back again
Maybe
I'll head down south
To
New Orleans
Wouldn't
have no taxes
Cause
I wouldn't have no means
Looking
for a Genie
That
could fill my dreams
But
dreams become reality
And
real ain't what it seems to be
I
just want to be free
Free
like the wind
And
if the wind fills my sails
Then
I'm never coming back again
I
just want to be free
Free
like the wind
And
if the wind fills my sails
Then
I'm never coming back again
Sick
for the cure
On
this roller coaster ride
It
can take you real low
And
it can get you real high
Just
passin' time
But
time ain't on our side
Ah,
guitar
I
just want to be free
Free
like the wind
And
if the wind fills my sails
Then
I'm never coming back again
I
just want to be free
Free
like the wind
And
if the wind fills my sails
Then
I'm never coming back again
I
just want to be free
Free
like the wind
And
if the wind fills my sails
Then
I'm never coming back again
ONE
FOR ROCK AND ROLL
I
was born on the dawn of a new society
And
I feel lucky that my eyes could see
People
standing up and being
Who
they want to be
People
made the music
And
the music made them free
Now
I was just a baby through
The
summer of love they say
But
it still feels like it was today
And
if the road gets rough
I
pick up my guitar and play
It's
always been right by my side
To
help me on my way
Now
I don't need to worry 'bout tomorrow
Ain't
anticipating what's to come
And
I don't need to worry 'bout
The
things I have not done
Long
as I got Rock and Roll
I'm
forever young
Now
we can't always understand this world
Farther
along we'll understand it all
The
70s looked like we all
Were
headed for a fall
But
those who listened hard enough
Could
hear the summer call
Now
I was growing up through all of this
My
first beer and love and my first kiss
You
never learn the things in school
You
learn by living and going through
You
taught me how to be myself
How
can I thank you
Now
I don't need to worry 'bout tomorrow
Ain't
anticipating what's to come
And
I don't need to worry 'bout
The
things I have not done
Long
as I got Rock and Roll
I'm
forever young
Play
a little now
Now
I don't need to worry 'bout tomorrow
Ain't
anticipating what's to come
And
I don't need to worry 'bout
The
things I have not done
Long
as I got Rock and Roll
I'm
forever young
Now
I don't need to worry 'bout tomorrow
Ain't
anticipating what's to come
And
I don't need to worry 'bout
The
things I have not done
Long
as I got Rock and Roll
I'm
forever young
Long
as I got Rock and Roll
I'm
forever young
Ain't
it the truth
DEAD
MAN'S ROAD
When
I was young
Old
man sat me on his knee
He
told me if I had a dream
I
could be what I wanna be
Now
life goes on
A
voice echoes in the wind
It's
telling me to carry on
Now
I know that it's him
He
said
Whoa,
watch out boy
Don't
go messin' with your life
Cause
it ain't no toy
Lord
help ya to carry life's load
It
could all pass you by
Down
on Dead Man's Road
Alright
Now
I got a good woman
You
know she's lookin' out for me
And
if I get a little blind
You
know she helps me to see
But
I gotta keep a runnin'
Cause
they're catchin' up to me
I
think I hear that voice again
This
time it says to me
He
said
Whoa,
watch out boy
Don't
go messin' with your life
Cause
it ain't no toy
Lord
help ya to carry life's load
Don't
you let it pass you by
Down
on Dead Man's Road
Look
out
When
I was young
Old
man sat me on his knee
He
told me if I had a dream
I
could be what I wanna be
Now
life goes on
A
voice echoes in the wind
It's
telling me to carry on
Now
I know that it's him
He
said
Whoa,
watch out boy
Don't
go messin' with your life
Cause
it ain't no toy
Lord
help ya to carry life's load
Don't
you let it pass you by
Down
on Dead Man's Road
Whoa,
watch out boy
Don't
go messin' with your life
Cause
it ain't no toy
Lord
help ya to carry life's load
Don't
you let it pass you by
Down
on Dead Man's Road
MAKE
YOUR OWN WAY
Born
and raised in a one dog town
That
never took a chance or a dare
The
times kept a changin'
But
it all passed 'em by
The
prejudices in the air
Drove
me to cocaine eyes
By
the age of 15
Kept
my mama walking the floor
But
I had to draw the line
For
the very last time
She
kicked my ass out the door
It
ain't always easy
When
you're living hand to mouth
The
more you put in
The
less you get out
It
ain't always easy
When
you're living day to day
It
ain't always easy
When
you're tryin' to make your own way
Make
your own way
When
life's a little hard on you
Make
yor own way
Nobody's
gonna die for you
I
remember rollin' dice on the run
Looking
for a winning hand
We
never stop to wonder
At
the wonders passing by
Just
searchin' for the promised land
We
met a mean old man
Who
dealt a dirty hand
Promised
we could touch the sky
But
the devil's his friend
He
put the pen in my hand
Said
you can pay me back
After
you die
It
ain't always easy
When
you're living hand to mouth
The
more you put in
The
less you get out
It
ain't always easy
When
you're living day to day
It
ain't always easy
When
you're tryin' to make your own way
Make
your own way
When
life's a little hard on you
Make
yor own way
Nobody's
gonna die for you
Ah,
ah, ah sometimes you gotta
Walk
a straight line
Ah,
ah, ah feel like I'm
Just
doing time
Ooo,
when life gets a little hard
You
gotta gotta ooo make your own way
Sometimes
you gotta make your
Own
way, here we go
Ooo,
sing it for 'em now
Make
your own way
When
life's a little hard on you
Make
your own way
Nobody's
gonna die for you
ELECTRIC
LOVE
When
I was down
An
angel came to me
And
she touched me inside
That
woman set me free
Turned
on the light
So
I could see
That
there was fire inside
And
I could feel the heat
She's
got the power, she gets me high
She
can take a storm and make it shine
She
keeps the spark burning over time
That
woman's got electric love
There
ain't no medicine
That
makes me fly
Like
when I'm with my sweet woman
She
keeps me so satisfied
And
if we had no money
We'd
still get by
And
if the world should stop turnin'
Our
love would be alive
LOVE
GONE BAD
If
I hear you stalkin'
Looking
for sympathy
You
just keep on walkin'
Actin'
like you don't know me
Ain't
nothin' new for you
Honey
what you put me through
Seven
years ago today
There
ain't no other way
Once
bitten now two cents shy
Almost
the apple of your daddy's eye
But
your love
Your
love's gone bad
Yea,
yea, yea
Your
love
Your
love's gone bad
If
I hear you talkin'
Gettin'
in my ear
Listen
to the words I say
Let
me make this very clear
Don't
ask for money
Don't
you think my name
Everything
was sunny
Dream
about it ain't the same
Once
bitten now two cents shy
Almost
the apple of your daddy's eye
But
your love
Your
love's gone bad
Yea,
yea, yea
Your
love
Your
love's gone bad
Once
bitten now two cents shy
Almost
the apple of your daddy's eye
But
your love
Your
love's gone bad
Yea,
yea, yea
Your
love
Your
love's gone bad
WINDS
OF CHANGE
I
look into the mirror
Can
almost count the years
The
memories are clearer
Of
all those things I feared
I
watch the time pass slowly
It
comes and goes like the waves
The
sea can touch the sky at night
It's
got the freedom I crave
I'm
going through changes
In
my life
I'm
going through changes
It'll
be alright
Look
into a picture
A
thousand years are told
Now
is it any wonder
What
our tomorrows hold
Our
yesterdays are over
You
know they go so fast
If
I could rule the winds of change
You
know I'd make it all last
I'm
going through changes
In
my life
I'm
going through changes
It'll
be alright
Alright
I
walked alone
Through
the blackest night
I
felt the cold
I
felt the bite
I
took the high road
But
it ain't right
It's
just the low road
In
disguise
I'm
going through changes
Ah
yea
Everything's
gonna be alright
Got
to the top of an
Uphill
climb
Only
to look
Down
the other side
Just
when you think
It's
on your side
This
world will show you
Ain't
no reason to the rhyme
I'm
going through changes
Ah
yea
Everything's
gonna be alright
Times
keep a changing every day
Watch
out now cause it's heading
Your
way
Ah
yea
Seems
like the world turned upside down
Seems
like everything's falling down
But
it's all getting better every day
Watch
out now cause a good
Times
heading our way
Ah,
every day
Every
day
Every
day
Every
day
Every
day
Every
day
