1.ROSALYN

Hey Rosalyn, tell me where you've been
Hey Rosalyn, tell me where you've been
All the night and all the day
Hide and seek is the game you play
Treat me as sure as sin
Oh Rosalyn, yeah Rosalyn
Hey Rosalyn, you're the girl for me
Hey Rosalyn, you're the girl for me
When I'm holding you so tight
It's so hard to say goodnight
It's you that I love now can't you see?
Do you really love me, do you love me true
Do you really love me Rosalyn
Yeah gotta know, yeah gotta know
Yeah gotta know Rosalyn

2.HERE COMES THE NIGHT

Oh here it comes
Here comes the night
Yeah, here comes the night
Oh yeah, here comes the night
I can see right out my window walking down the street my girl
With another guy
His arms around her like it used to be with me
Oh it makes me want to die
Yeah, here it comes
Here comes the night
Yeah, here comes the night
Yeah, here comes the night
There they go, funny how they look so good together
Wonder what is wrong with me
Why can't I accept the fact she's chosen him
And simply let them be
Oh she is with him, they're turning down the lights
Now he's holding her the way I used to do
I can see her closing her eyes and telling him lies
Exactly like she told me too

3.I WISH YOU WOULD

Early in the morning by the break of day
That's when my baby went away
Come back baby I wish you would
This crying and grieving won't do me no good
Hugging and a-kissing, late at night
You know pretty baby it feels just right
Come back baby what you're trying to do
Turning on me and some other men too
Come back baby give me one more chance
You know I still love you, gonna give you romance
Yeah, romance all night long
In my arms, oh yeah
Hey pretty baby I love you so
You know pretty baby it hurts me to see you go

4.SEE EMILY PLAY

Emily tries but misunderstands
She's often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams 'til tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play
Soon after dark Emily cries
Gazing at trees in sorrow hardly a sound 'til tomorrow
Put on a gown that touches the ground
Float on a river forever and ever Emily

5.EVERYTHING ‘S ALRIGHT

Oh little baby
You know I've been away
Oh little baby
You know I'll come today
Don't you know that
Everything's alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright, babe
Let me hold your hand and be your loving man, all night
Let me hold your hand and be your loving man, all night
Let me hold your hand and be your loving man, all night
Oh little baby
You know I feel so good
Oh little baby
I never knew I could
And don't you know that
Everything's alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright babe
Let me give you loving like nobody can
Let me give you loving like nobody can
All night, alright
Let me hold your hand and be your loving man
No, no, no that's a-loving you
Must have been you
I'm gonna all night loving you
No, no, no, no, no
I'll be good for you
Everything's alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright babe
Let me give you loving like nobody can
All night, all night
Let me give you loving like nobody can
All night, alright
Everything's alright
Everything's alright

6.I CAN’T EXPLAIN

New feeling inside
It's a hot certain kind
I feel hot and cold
Down in my soul, baby
I can't explain
Going out of my mind
Dizzy in the head, and I'm feeling blue
Things you say well maybe they're true
I get funny dreams again and again
Knows what it means, but
Can't explain
I think it's love
Say it to you
When I feel blue
I can't explain, no, I can't explain
You know I can't explain
I'm going out of my mind
Well I'm a worried guy
But I can't explain

7.FRIDAY ON MY MIND

Monday morning feels so bad
Everybody seems to nag me
Coming Tuesday I feel better
Even my old man looks good
Wednesday just don't go
Thursday goes too slow
I've got Friday on my mind
See my baby
Gonna have fun in the city
Do my baby screw
Be with my girl
she's so pretty
All I want to do
She looks fine tonight
She is out of sight to me, so divine
Tonight, I spend my bread
Tonight, I lose my head
Tonight, I've got to get tonight
Monday I have Friday on my mind
Do the five day drag once more
There is nothing else that bugs me
More than working for the rich men
Poor man, beggar man, thief
Hey I'll change that scene one day
Today I might be mad
Tomorrow I'll be glad
Because I'll have Friday on my mind
See my baby
Gonna have fun
Be with my girl

8.SORROW

With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
You acted funny trying to spend my money
You're out there playing your high class games of sorrow
Sorrow
You never do what you know you oughta
Something tells me
you're a Devil's daughter
Sorrow, sorrow
I tried to find her
Because I can't resist her
I tried to find her
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow
Sorrow
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
With your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
With your long blonde hair

9.DONT BRING ME DOWN

I'm on my own, nowhere to roam
I tell you baby, don't want no home
I wander round, feet off the ground
I even go from town to town
I said I think this rock is grand
Say I'll be your man
Don't bring me down, don't bring me down
I met this chick, the other day
And then to me, she said she'll stay
I get this pad, just like a cave
And then we'll have, our living made
And then I'll lead her on the ground
My head is spinning round
Don't bring me down, don't bring me down
I need a lover
Because someone new
And then to her I will be true
I'll buy her furs and pretty things
I'll even buy a wedding ring
But until then I'll settle down
Say I'll be your man
Don't bring me down, don't bring me down
Until then I'll settle down
Say I'll be your man
Don't bring me down, don't bring me down
Don't bring me down

10.SHAPES OF THINGS

Shapes of things before my eyes
Just teach me to despise
Will time make man more wise
Here within my lonely frame
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will it seem the same
Come tomorrow, will I be older
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today
Now the trees are almost green
But will they still be seen
When time and tide have been
Boy into your passing hands
Please don't destroy these lands
Don't make them desert sands
Soon I hope that I will find
A seed within my mind
That won't disgrace my kind

11.ANYWAY, ANYHOW, ANYWHERE

I can go anyway
way I choose
I can live anyhow
win or lose
I can go anywhere for something new
Anyway, anyhow, anywhere I choose
I can do anything right or wrong
I can talk anyhow and get along
I don't care anyway
I never lose
Anyway, anyhow, anywhere I choose
Nothing gets in my way
Not even locked doors
Don't follow the lines that been laid before
I get along anyway I care
Anyway, anyhow, anywhere
Anyway, anyway I choose
I wanna go
Do it myself, do it myself,
Anyway, anyway I choose

12.WHERE HAVE ALL THE GOOD TIMES GONE

In my life I've never stopped to worry about a thing
Opened up and shouted out and never tried to see
Wondering if I'd done wrong
Will this depression last for long
Won't you tell me
Where have all the good times gone
Where have all the good times gone
Where have all the good times gone
Once we had an easy ride and always felt the same
Time was on our side and I had everything to gain
Let it be like yesterday
Please let me have happy days
Ma and Pa looked back on all the things they used to do
Didn't have no money and they always told the truth
Daddy didn't have no toys
And Mummy didn't need no boys
Yesterday was such an easy game for you to play
But let's face it things are so much easier today
Guess you need some bringing down
Get your feet back on the ground

13.GROWIN' UP

Well I stood stone like at midnight
Suspended in my masquerade
I combed my hair till it was just right
And commanded the night brigade
I was open to pain and cro ssed by the rain
And I walked on a crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone
Came out with my soul untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd
But when they said 'sit down' I stood up
Ooh-ohh ooh hoo growin' up
The flag of piracy flew from my mast
My sails were set wing to wing
I had a jukebox graduate for first mate
She couldn't sail but she sure could sing
I pushed the b-52 and bombed em with the blues
With my gear set stubborn on standing
I broke all the rules, strafed my old high school
Never once gave thought to landing, no

14.AMSTERDAM

In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who sings
Of the dream that he brings
From the wide open sea
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who sleeps
While the river bank weeps
To the old willow tree
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who dies
Full of beer, full of cries
In a drunken town fight
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who's born
On a hot muggy morn
By the dawn's early light
In the port of Amsterdam
Where the sailors all meet
There's a sailor who eats
Only fish heads and tails
And he'll show you his teeth
That have rotten too soon
That can haul up the sails
That can swallow the moon
And he yells to the cook
With his arms open wide
"Hey, bring me more fish
Throw it down by my side"
And he wants so to belch
But he's too full to try
So he stands up and laughs
And he zip up his fly
In the port of Amsterdam
You can see sailors dance
Paunches bursting their pants
Grinding women to porch
They've forgotten the tune
That their whiskey voice croaked
Splitting the night
With the roar of their jokes
And they turn and they dance
And they laugh and they lust
Till the rancid sound
of the accordion bursts
And then out of the night
With their pride in their pants
And the sluts that they tow
Underneath the street lamps
In the port of Amsterdam
There's a sailor who drinks
And he drinks and he drinks
And he drinks once again
He'll drink to the health
Of the whores of Amsterdam
Who've given their bodies
To a thousand other men
Yeah, they've bargained their virtue
Their goodness all gone
For a few dirty coins
Well he just can't go on
Throws his nose to the sky
And he aims it up above
And he pisses like I cry
On the unfaithful love
In the port of Amsterdam
In the port of Amsterdam
