1.This Is Easy
(m. crenshaw)
Yes i see we're moving on
Over unfamiliar ground
Wait a minute look around
This is easy
Yes i see we're moving on
Maybe trouble's all we'll find
But compared to what's behind
This is easy
And there were nights when we knew
The sunshine would never ever reappear
It's not a good time all the time
Baby let's grab hold while it's here
Baby baby do i need
To explain or can you tell
That i'm feeling oh so well
This is easy
And i know there's not one thing
That could ever drag us down
Wait a minute look around
This is easy
Remember this when the dreams you treasure
Are scattered like bowling pins
It's not a good time all the time
Nobody always wins
This is easy oh so easy
If we're crazy. well, we don't care
Like falling falling
Falling throught empty air
2.A Hundred Dollars
(m. crenshaw)
A city of bright lights under a foreign sky
A full moon shining, a cool breeze blowing by
A fine one beside me; this is what i dream of
I've got a hundred dollars, let's fall in love
When i'm down with a worried mind
I walk around and wonder, why is life so unkind？？？
But in this place at this moment
I cannot feel blue
I've got a hundred dollars to spend on you
A hundred dollars and a doll like you
So many things to go and places to do
Roll down the window we'll make the radio scream
My heart's been set free
Look, we got mobility？？ and night's just begun
You're pretty as a dream
3.Calling Out For Love(At Crying Time)
(m. crenshaw, d. dixon)
She was kicking down the fence trying to hide the evidence
That would give her game away
But everything was as clear as day
I knew she had no more to give, she hated everything she did
And i could feel her restless mind
Calling out for love at crying time
All those days that seemed like years
The silence roaring in our ears
Then at night a ticking sound
The timebomb of the life we'd found
I watched her leave, my heart in flames
Fanned by all her other lovers' names
And i could feel my restless mind
Calling out for love at crying time
Whisky, wine and cheap perfume; all those crowded bars
And hotel rooms
Exotic rhythms to embrace
But everywhere is a lonely place
So down and down and down i go
But where i'm going, well i sure don't know
But i can feel my restless mind
Calling out for love at crying time
4.Wild Abandon
(m. crenshaw)
Wild abandon, yes wild abandon
Grab hold of this sound while the room spins 'round
In wild abandon
Wild abandon, yes wild abandon
Don't stare at the ceiling
Feel this feeling of wild abandon
Roll on in wild abandon
Well i was minding my own...
Walking alone at the end of a monday, a dreary old monday
No moon hanging high in the cold grey sky
I saw a light in a doorway
I walked on slowly and then i heard a
Screaming stomping sound
Next thing i knew i was jumping around in
Wild abandon, yes wild abandon
I wanna smash through my cares and
Dance over chairs in wild abandon
Wild abandon, yes wild abandon
Now it's long overdue for me to rock with you
In wild abandon
Roll on in wild abandon
I mean total abandon
Now i'm just minding my own...
Drinking alone in a dive on broadway, dirty old broadway
Now i don't know about you, but i'm moved through ＆ through
By a backbeat pumping and a jukebox jumping
And when somebody played 'whole lotta shaking goin' on'
I grabbed me a partner, we rocked 'til dawn in wild abandon!!!
5.This Street
(m. crenshaw)
Music and screams on this street of twisted dreams
People staring (into space) and talking (to themselves, get it？)
Baby let's keep walking
Pretend i'm a king and you're a queen
This is our paradee and it goes on endlessly
And then it's not so bad, you see, to live
On this street
I turn my eyes to the passing scene
Old and young and in between
Driven along by the pounding beat
All hurrying by
Down this street
Sorry ole man well i guess i didn't see you there
Baby take hold of my hand
It's like a surreal dream in three dimension(s)
Always pay attention out here on this street
When i'm restless for no reason or rhyme
I wander away from time to time
The roar of my wheels always sounds so sweet
But i hurry back to this street
This street
Won't you come on down with me
Can't find any place where i'd rather be
This street
Hope my luck is still secure
Never know what's waiting by the door
Come take my hand
It's like a surreal dream and it goes on endlessly
It's really not so bad, you see
To live on this street
6.Somebody Crying
(m. crenshaw)
Right, no warning. none at all
Just the word, 'goodbye,' written backwards
On the wall
Now my anger is in overdrive
So down the road i'm bound 'til i track you down
Dead or alive
I heard somebody crying and the sky turned black and grey
Say, miss lady, where are you today？
Call me daddy rolling stone
As i make my way down the back roads all alone
Why did you do it？ i don't care!
I won't end this ride 'till you're by my side,
This i swear
I heard somebody crying and the sun's dropping out of sight
Say, miss lady, where are you tonight？
7.Mary Jean
(m. crenshaw)
She came into my life like a bombshell
One look and i fell for little mary jean
She walked cool with her head always held high
The glow in her eyes made her look like a queen
A little queen, mary jean
She took a hold of my heart and held me under a spell
I guess she knew me real well
Just why we hung together through all those tears
I couldn't tell you now in a million years
I didn't think that the cause of my downfall
Would be pretty and small like little mary jean
And i couldn't know when i held her that first night
(feeling ever so right) that one day it would end
In a scene. mary jean
Now she's gone yes she's gone and i think i'll be alright
But then the phone rings at night
She's on the line again and it's just no fun
We've got a bad connection, mary i've gotta run
Hey now i just had to tell her to go away
It's so unexciting around here today
I'm standing here looking down at my shoes
With a case of the blues over little mary jean
She was so pretty and small
She was the cause of my downfall
We used to fuss and fight
And i dream about her every single night
8.Steel Strings
(peter case)
Well all those nights they hit rock bottom
The songs they sang, well, we forgot 'em
You could hear them play with shaky hands
Guitars strung up with rubber bands
Singing do you want a man of steel？
Or do you want a man that's real
They used to play in the courts of kings
Now they're only made of steel when they're
On steel strings
They used to be on every schoolgirl's wall
And they never dropped the beat at all
They could make it soar, they could make it hot
Once they got started they could never stop
Singing, do you want a man of steel or
Do you want a man that's real？
Some of them hide when the doorbell rings
They're only made of steel when they're on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings
Were you expecting maybe superman？
The best they do is the best they can
The manager's doing time in jail (applause)
And the pink cadillac is up for sale
Singing do you want a man of steel
Or do you want a man that's real
They try their hands at a thousand things
But they're only made of steel
When they're on steel strings
9.'til That Moment
(m. crenshaw)
You've gotta understand
I want to be your only one
'til the last star fades,
'til this wide world is through
'til that moment i'll belong to you
I'll need you body and soul
Until the blazing sun turns cold
'til the orlov diamond refuses to shine
'til that moment babybaby you're mine
Some people love money
Some people are in love with war
But i'm in love with your brown eyes
Yes you are what i'm living for
And i still remember it well：
I saw you standing by a big hotel
Just then the clock on the corner struck five
'til that moment i was half alive
Then you smiled at me across the crowded avenue
Right away my tempurature started to climb
'til that moment i was marking time
It's true
I'm drawn to you like a moth to a candle flame
But here is something that i've got to know：
How come you never call me by my name？？？？
Don't change your mind
I promise i won't change mine
'til the last star fades
'til this wide world is through
'til that moment i'll belong to you
'til the stars fall from the blue...
'til that moment i'll belong to you
10.They Never Will Know
(m. crenshaw)
Every room seems dark and cold
And you feel misplaced in a world that's old
Remember
They never will know
They don't know and they never will know
You shouldn't doubt yourself
What you've got you shouldn't hide
If you live that way you'll go dead inside
And remember, they never will know
They don't know and they never will know
Don't die inside
From your soul you've cried for every one
Who wants to run your life for you
But you know what they never will know
And the world is yours, it's true
On a day like this
Every room seems cold
And you feel misplaced and the world looks old
Remember, they never will know
They don't know and they never will know
You won't doubt yourself when you realize
All the strength i see there in your eyes...
Got to shake this gloom
It's in every room
Well, come on be smart. don't let 'em
Tear your heart in two
'cause you know what they never will know
And the world is yours, it's true
