1. WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT

Don't it hurt so bad
Standing in the sun
The bottom of your heart
You don't love no one

You can be, oh, so mean
I just can't see no in-between
You know what the sun's all about
When the lights go out

What a way to live
Back of your class
The end of the line
You're always last

You can be, oh, so mean
I just can't see, no in-between
You know what the sun's all about
When the lights go out

See the moon, see the stars
From your lonely seat, in lonely cars

You can be, oh, so mean
I just can't see, no in-between
You know what the sun's all about
When the lights go out
Lights go out
Lights go out
Lights go out
Alright


2. 10 A.M. AUTOMATIC

What about the night
Makes you change
Oh, from sweet
To deranged
What about my voice
Tells you who
Who's been wrong to you

You've got pains
Like an addict
I'm leaving you
You've got pains
Like an addict
10 A.M. automatic
Alright

I see darkness cover us, alright
And your car
Kicks up dust
What about my way
Makes you doubt
All these words from my mouth

Here we go
You've got pains
Like an addict
I'm leaving you
You've got pains
Like an addict
10 A.M. automatic


3. JUST COULD ‘NT TIE ME DOWN

Will you let me know
How you've changed
I can't tell in any way

Little village, is not a town
Just couldn't tie me down

You sent a message to my mind
Without reason, without rhyme

Happiness, come around
Just couldn't tie me down

Feel the wind hit your skin
I see the shape you put me in

Saw your talking
Heard the sounds
Just couldn't tie me down


4. ALL AGAINST HIS OWN

He found all hands against his own
He found all eyes were looking down
And the sun had left and gone
All his friends could not be found

Don't talk about, don't think about love
She's not the one you're dreaming of
Don't talk about it, can't live without it
You say you're alone
He found all hands against his own

He found the sky had turned to gray
And the clouds start rolling in
Got no use for what they say
Got no use for where they've been

Don't talk about, don't think about love
She's not the one you're dreaming of
Don't talk about it, can't live without it
You say you're alone
He found all hands against his own
You say you're alone
He found all hands against his own
You say you're alone
He found all hands against his own, alright
You say you're alone
He found all hands against his own, alright

He found all hands against his own
And no light from up above
Just a dark and lonely road
He found all hands against his own


5. THE DESPERATE MAN

See her walking
With a fellow
Two of them
So nice and mella
My heart is broken
It's open wide
Feel so down
Deep inside
Alright
Hit it

Summer's here but I'm still in fall
Wondering what she done me for
I'm too far down the deepest ditch
Too far gone to ever switch
Hit it

Alright
Alright
Alright
Hit it
Alright
Alright

Drive all night now
Without a care
Hope to catch you
Standing there
Don't forsake a desperate man
Hope you know that's who I am

Alright
Hit it
Alright

One-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight


6. GIRL IS ON MY MIND

Girl is on my mind
Girl is on my mind
Try to ignore it
I try to unwind
But she is on my mind

Eyes are in my eyes
Eyes are in my eyes
Where I've been
How time flies
When she is in my eyes

See her standing there
See her standing there
She's gentle now and she
Takes great care
See her standing there

Hold me close to you
Hold me close to you
Not one thing that I
Would not do if you
Would hold me close to you

Girl is on my mind
She is on my mind
Try to ignore it
Try to unwind
But she is on my mind


7. THE LENGTHS

Tell me where you're going
What is going wrong
I felt you leaving
Before you'd even gone
Hold me now
Or never, ever
Hold me again
No more talk
Could take me from this
Pain I'm in
Pain I'm in

See the moonlight shining
On your window pane
See it leave you
As faithful as it came
Please yourself
So you don't have to
Be afraid,
Make amends,
Or carry on another way
Another way

Tell me what you were thinking
To treat somebody so
The care he took
The lengths to which he'd go
The coals are hot
To walk across
Without your shoes
But in the end
Know that you've got nothing to lose
Nothing to lose


8. GROWN SO UGLY

I got up this morning
Put on my shoes
Tied my shoes
Went to the mirror
For to comb my hair
I made a move
Know what to do
Try to break and run

Baby, this ain't me
Baby, this ain't me
Grown so ugly
Grown so ugly
Don't even know myself
Don't even know myself

Left Angola, 1964
Walking down the street
Knock upon my baby's door
My baby come out
And ask me who I am
I say: "honey, honey, don't you know your man?"
She said: "My man been gone since 1942
And I tell you, Mr. Ugly
He didn't look like you!"


9. STACK SHOT BILLY

Stack shot Billy in the back of the head
Stack made sure Billy Lyons was dead
.45 pistol down in Stack's right hand
Send him away to the promised land

Stack shot Billy
45
Stack shot Billy
Billy lay down and died

Stack Lee had himself an evil brain
Loved his gun and his sweet cocaine
Stack got quiet when the shadows fell
Knew soon enough that he'd burn in hell

Stack shot Billy
45
Stack shot Billy
Billy lay down and died

Stack shot Billy in the back of the head
Stack made sure Billy Lyons was dead
.45 pistol down in Stack's right hand
Send him away to the promised land

Stack shot Billy
45
Stack shot Billy
Billy lay down and died


10. ACT NICE AND GENTLE

Where'd you get those fancy clothes?
Where'd you get those, goodness knows
Just show some civility
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me

I don't need no luxuries
As long as you are understanding
I'm not difficult to please
Act nice and gentle to me

I am the kind of guy who
Likes to take you as I found you
Throw away your false eyelashes
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me

Holding my hand
Understand
Act nice
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me

Holding my hand
Now understand
Gentle to me
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me


11. AEROPLANE BLUES

I'm on an airplane
Across the sea
Going nowhere
I wanna be

Distant land
Don't know who I am

Eyes are heavy
Mind is shook
Can't feel
Drugs I took

Distant land
Don't know who I am

Take your sea
Don't be shy,
You've got to remember
That you were born to die

Distant land
Don't know who I am
Don't know who I am
Don't know who I am


12. KEEP ME

Keep me clean
Keep me warm
Keep my soul away from harm
Keep the night
Keep the day
Keep the in-between away

Hold that second
Hold the time
Hold that picture in your mind
Hold the smoke
Hold the fire
Hold all that now you desire

Show me trust
Show me love
Show me heaven up above
Show your soul
Show your mind
Show it to me all the time


13. TILL I GET MY WAY

Love me
Don't leave me
Make me feel you need me
You kill me
Thrill me
Don't you know that I will be
Calling on you everyday
Till I get my way

Darling, I wonder
How you pulled me under
You kill me
Thrill me
Don't you know that I will be
Calling on you everyday
Till I get my way
Till I get my way

Darling remember
The cold, cold nights in December
Kill me
Thrill me
Don't you know that I will be
Calling on you everyday
Till I get my way
Till I get my way
Till I get my way
Till I get my way
