Lyrics

1. DON'T WASTE MY TIME

You spend my money
You drink my best red wine
You think it's funny
To see me all the time
Sitting with my head hanging down
Treating me just like a clown
You spend my money
But come on honey don't waste my time

When you get older
You'll see what you have done
You hung on my shoulder
And loved me just for fun
But some day when I'm older too
I'm gonna come and make fool out of you
You spend my money
And honey
You sure did waste my time

You spend my money
You drink my best red wine
You think it's funny
To see me all the time
Sitting with my head hanging down
Treating me like a clown
You spend my money
Come on honey don't waste my time

2. Oh baby

Oh baby, why don't you come home?
Oh baby, don't you leave me alone
Oh baby, been away for far too long

When you get home, gonna sing you this song
They're gonna know 'cos you've treating me wrong
Oh baby, been away for far too long

Oh baby, why don't you come home?
Oh baby, don't you leave me alone
Oh baby, been away for far too long

When you get home, gonna sing you this song
They're gonna know 'cos you've treating me wrong
Oh baby, been away for far too long


3. A YEAR

Standing by the wayside, begging for a ride
I been waiting so long, a year has gone
Look at all the people, strangers every one
I've been looking so long, a year has gone

You were all I lived for, I guess my life is through
I've been living so long, I can't go on
Lonely Sunday morning, rest in peace, my love
You been sleeping so long, a year has gone

How could I ever start to tell you
The end is almost here?
The song of love is ringing in my ears
Playing loud, playing clear
The song will never change
The memory will always be so near

Standing by the wayside, begging for a ride
I been waiting so long, a year has gone


4.UNSPOKEN WORLD

If I could only share with you
Once more the fruits of yesterday
Could I forget unspoken words?
The change in colours of your way

I can still see you standing there
Clutching my hand and begging not to go
Don't hide the tears, I'm crying too
It doesn't matter too much, no

I'll always be with you by your side
Watching over you, feeling every pain
Hold your head high, think of me there
I'll still be with you once again

I'll always be with you by your side
Watching over you, feeling every pain
Hold your head high, think of me there
I'll still be with you once again


5. BIG FAT MAMA

Say you need me, say you need me
Tell me that you want my love
Say you will be mine and I am yours
You think that you're way above me
I'm telling you that I can see
All those things that you might wanna be
I am yours tonight
You be mine tonight

You keep telling me you're not having me
I'm telling you that I can see
All the things that you might wanna be
Say you need me, say you need me
Tell me that you want my love
Say will be mine and I am yours
I am yours tonight
You be mine tonight

I got a big fat Mama
With a big fat boy
Really thinks she's something else
But I love that woman
Like fish loves the water
And there is nobody else
I'm gonna tell you woman better do as you're told
If you don't, I'm gonna bringing you down
I've got a big fat Mama
And there's no one else around

I said say you need me
Come on and say you need me
I said say you need me

Say you need me
Come on and say you need me
I said say you need me


6. PAPER PLANE

Riding on a big white butterfly
I turned my back away towards the sky
I closed my eyes to look for something
Saw myself as really nothing
Then I realised my butterfly
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my butterfly

Riding on a long blue paperplane
Getting seasick, sorry once again
Landing strip is getting nearer
Hope the foglifts, make it clearer
Then I realised my paperplane
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my paperplane

Riding in a three grand Deutche car
A to B is often very far
Home is near, but such a long way
Legs and heads all feel the wrong way
Then I realised my Deutche car
Is only there to get me somewhere
Even so I really do care
Would you like to ride my Deutche car


7. ALL THE REASONS

When I find myself in trouble and I need someone to lean on
I only have to call and you're right there by my side
When I can't see all the reasons why you have to be so far
Away
I wonder if your love is really here to stay
And I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for You
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me To

When you're telling me not to worry 'cos you're being there
Won't be long
I only live in hope that you just can't be wrong
Because I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you

And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me To

And I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for You
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me To


8. ROADHOUSE BLUES

Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse
We're gonna have a real good time

Yeah, the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
Yeah, the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
That's sort of people like to go down slow

Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, all night long

Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse
We're gonna have a real good time

In the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
At the back of the Roadhouse they got someone to love
That's sort of people like to go down slow

Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, all night long

You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta ease my soul, all right
You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta jump up and get me baby
I know you want me baby

You gotta roll, roll, roll
You gotta ease my soul, all right
I shoulda made you, I shoulda made you
Give up your vows, give up your vows

Save my city, save my city
Right now, oh baby, baby I woke up this morning,
I got myself a beer
I woke up this morning, and I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain, and the end is always near

Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll, let it roll

All night long
