1. CONTINENTAL OP

Well..there's a body in the bay,
The cops are taking it away.
They said this case was closed,
It only shows that you never know.
So who are they gonna get,
When the trouble's gotta stop?
Here's my card,
I'm the Continental Op.

Jane Doe in the bay,
Now that's Exhibit 'A'.
Bloodstains on the dress,
Of the million heiress.

But I saw you leaving town,
I'm gonna have to track you down.
You've slipped through the web,
And you might have dodged the Feds.

Who are they going to get,
When you've outfoxed the Cops?
Here's my number,
I'm the Continental Op.

I'm the Continental Op.....yea

Call the Agency,
We never close.
First consultation is free,
Check my reputation,
Check my pose,
First you ought to check my fee.

There's a menace on the streets,
Offering infants' sweets.
Don't give this man a ride,
Lock your car from the inside.

He's suspect No. 1,
But I guess his race is run.
He left a set of prints,
He's not smart as he thinks

Who are they gonna get,
When you've outfoxed the cops?
Here's my card ,
I'm the Continental Op.

Yea..who are they gonna get,
When you've outfoxed the cops?
Here's my badge,
I'm the Continental Op.

Yea



2. MOONCHILD

You are a moonchild and pretty soon child
I've got that feeling
That I'm gonna make you smile forever
If I can.
Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan
You are a blue child, forever true child
You know I'll try to paint the skies blue forever
If I can.
Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan.

Tell me why you look so sad,
Time slips by like grains of sand
Just put your future in my hands

You are a moonchild and pretty soon child
I've got the feelin I'm gonna make you smile forever.
If I can.

Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan,
Just give me a smile and I'll show you my plan,
Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan.



3. MEAN DISPOSITION

I'm getting wise to you You're going to see I'm going to work on you The way you worked on me I got a sharper aim And you're in my sights And if I'm going to go I'm going in a blaze of lights And in this crazy world of hit and run There are no laws here Just a loaded gun She's got a mean disposition She's got a big shooter too She's got a mean disposition Really make a mess Really make a mess out of you I never close my eyes I never sleep I'm staying on my guard Waiting for my flesh to creep And I never trusted you You never trusted me I'll do a deal with you If you'll do a deal with me For me the nightmare's only just begun There is no law here Just a loaded gun She's got a mean disposition Got a big shooter too She's got a mean disposition Got a bad attitude She's got a mean disposition Going to cut your half Going to cut your half in two I'm going have to stand my ground Like Crockett at the Alamo I'm going to draw the line One of us has got to go She's got a mean disposition Got a big shooter too She's got a mean disposition Got a bad attitude She's got a mean disposition Going to make a mess out of you She's got a mean disposition Going to cut your half Going to cut your half in two



4. THE LOOP (instrumental)



5. DON'T START ME TALKIN

Well I'm goin' down the road,
Stop in Fanny May's.
Gonna tell ol' Fanny,
What I heard her boyfriend say.
Don't start me to talkin',
I'll tell everything I know.
Gonna break up this signifyin' cause,
Somebody's got to go.

Jack gave his wife two dollars,
To go downtown and get some market.
Gets out on the street,
Ol' George stopped her.
He knocked her down,
And blackened her eye.
She gets back home,
And tells her husband a lie.

Don't start me to talkin',
I'll tell everything I know.
Gonna break up this signifyin' cause,
Somebody's got to go.
Yeah......

She borrowed some money,
To go to the beauty shop.
She honked his horn,
She began to start.
Said take me baby,
Around the block.
I`m going to the beauty shop,
To give my hair a shock.

Don't start me to talkin',
I'll tell everything I know.
Gonna break up this signifyin' cause,
Somebody's got to go.
Yeahhhh....


6. SHE MOVED THROUGH THE FAIRE(instrumental)


7. OUT ON THE WESTERN PLAIN

When I was a cowboy out on the Western Plain.
When I was a cowboy out on the Western Plain.
Well, I made a half a million,
Working hard on the bridle reins.
Come a cow-cow yicky. come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.

What was the greatest battle ever on the Western Plain?
What was the greatest battle ever on the Western Plain?
When me and a bunch of cowboys rode into Jesse James.

Come a cow-cow yicky, come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
Come a cow-cow yicky, come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.

Now me and a bunch of cowboys rode into Jesse James.
When me and a bunch of cowboys rodc into Jesse James.
Well, those bullets were a-flying just like a shower of rain.

Come a cow-cow ylcky come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
Come a cow-cow ylcky come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.

What was the greatest battle ever on Bunker Hill?
What was the greatest battle ever on Bunker Hill?
When me and a bunch of cowboys rode into Buffalo Bill.

Come a cow-cow yicky, come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.
Come a cow-cow ylcky, come a cow-cow yicky, yicky yea.

12. GHOST BLUES

Came home this morning,
Looking half-way like a ghost.
Walked in this morning,
Feeling half-way like a ghost.

Face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast.
Face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast.

Yeah...yeah

If I had some sense,
I`d tear that building down.
If I had some sense,
I`d tear that building down.

No more gin house,
Just smiles instead of frowns.
No more gin house,
Smiles instead of frowns.

Came home this morning,
Found her crying by the door.
Came home this morning,
Found her crying by the door.

Make my promise,
Won't barrel-house no more.
You've got my word,
Won't barrel-house no more.

I can see the ghost,
Feeling like a ghost.

Came home this morning,
Looking half-way like a ghost.
Came home this morning,
Feeling half-way like a ghost.

Face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast.
Face looked like marble,
Blood burned just like toast.

Yeah....


13. MESSIN' WHITH THE KID

What's this I hearthat's going all around town?
The people are sayin' you gonna put the kid down,
Lordy, what're you doing?
You can call it what you want,
I call it messin' with the kid.
You told me you loved me,
You told me a lie.
I love you woman till the day I die.
Lordy, what're you doing?
You can call it what you want,
I call it messin' with the kid.

You took the kid's car and drove all around town,
Tellin' everybody you're gonna put the kid down.
Lordy, what're you doing?
Call it what you want,
I call it messin' with the kid.

Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
You can call it what you want,
I call it messin' with the kid.

You told me you loved me,
You told me a lie.
I love you woman till the day I die.

Take my car and drive all around town,
Tellin' everybody you gonna put me down.
Lordy, what're you doing?
Call it what you want,
I call it messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
Messin' with the kid.
