Cool groovy jazz cats
And country western buckaroos Classical conductors And rock 'n' rollers watch your cues Let the trends keep on passin', what I do's A thing called jazzin' the blues I hear some fusion Makes me wonder what to fuse Afro, Cuban, Asian Color comes in many hues But whatever style's in fashion, I'll never lose A passion for jazzin' the blues Disco to hip-hop There are many avenues Pop rock to bebop Why should I be forced to choose Ain't no fortune I'm amassin', all I'm askin' you's To let me keep on jazzin' the blues Retro to techno Is one example you can use Where a sample is ample To turn the oldies into news But through all the razzmatazzin', and ballyhoos I'm gon'a keep on jazzin' the blues No explanation I've got nothin' to excuse Without invitation Music writes it's own reviews I might be my own assassin, but win or lose I'm gon'a keep on jazzin' the blues I can take the harassin', cheers or boos I'm gon'a keep on jazzin' the blues There is nothin' surpassin', my music muse That keeps me jazzin' the blues Jazzin' the blues, Yeah |

The mountain is high, the valley is low,
And you're confused 'bout which to go, So I flew in to give you a hand, And lead you into, the promised land. Chorus: Come on and take a free ride, free ride, Come on and take it by my side, Come on and take a free ride! All over the country, I'm seeing the same, Nobody's winning, at this type of game, We gotta do better, it's time to begin, You know all the answers Must come from within. Chorus Solos Stop bridge Chorus Come on and take a free ride yea, yea, yea, yea.. |

They say God made the Earth in six days
He said, it looks good so it all stays The seventh day He took a rest I'm not so sure that was for the best (but) If God did it, I can't take credit If God did it, just forget it If God did it, it's not my fault It's up to him to call a halt Adam and Eve had the garden of Eden And everything they would ever be needin' He put the fruit on the tree of knowledge To get smart now, boy, you have to go to college (awh) If God did it, to teach us a lesson If God did it, it must be a blessin' Adam slipped, and man fell So now we all can - go to Hell God looked down and saw a world of sin He said, I'll wash it clean and start again He told old Noah, it's a big pain You better get ready for a little rain (well) If God did it, I guess it was needed If God did it, his warning was heeded He said, here's the plan; so Noah, hark You're the man; go build that Ark We've got God's word; It's in the Bible If it's not all true, we can sue for libel It's totally awesome and simply devine My favorite miracle is water to wine If God did it, it must be holy If God dit it, for amusement solely I believe every word He spoke I just hope He can take a joke (Ha-hah, come on, God) I hope I don't sound like a blasphemer May God forgive me, 'cause He's the redeemer He sent His only Son to be our Savior But just to be sure I'm gonna watch my behavior If God did it, it's His decision If God did it, well, it's His religion I love God, and I'm a true believer But sometimes He seems like an overachiever The prophesyin' in Revelation There's no denyin', will be a sensation The war of wars to close the show With God and the Devil goin' toe to toe If God did it, it's His intention If God did it, he goes on to mention Some helpful hints and a few tips On how to survive the Apocalypse If God did it, there's no intervention If God did it, it's beyond comprehension If God did it, the way things are headin' It's startin' to look like Armegeddon I'm on my knees, and I pray Lord have mercy on judgement day I'm not worthy, and I know it's a sin So I surrender, Go-o-o-o-o-d, You win YOU WIN! |

The pessimist says," Things are as bad as they can get.
That's just the nature of the universe." Then the optimist says," Oh no, now don't you fret; I'm sure that things can get much worse! " 'Cause there's more than enough Life is full of sufferin' stuff There're many philosophic views But there's one thing I have found There's more than enough blues to go around Every livin' creature has a right to sing the blues 'Cause it's a problem just to be alive So whatever shape you're in, or the color of your skin Just remember when those aliens arrive We've got more than enough Sufferin's universal stuff So on your planetary cruise To whatever world you're bound There'll be more than enough blues To go around (bridge) So my brothers in the sky Don't just hover over town We want to see you eye to eye Come discover what you've found Don't be sad and don't you cry 'Cause when your UFOs touch down There'll be more than enough blues To go around (break down) It was God who went and did it So we know it must be fair If it's this way here on Earth Then it must be everywhere So come on down and meet us We could use a little scare And there's more than enough blues For us to share Yeah, we've got more than enough of these blues More than this blue planet can excuse Now we're the badest ever found So come and dig our funky sound We've got more than enough blues to go around To go around So come on down Um-hum, Yea-ea-ea-ea-ea-eah We've got more than enough blues To go around |

Some look for fortune, fame and success
They long for contentment, and real happiness Some speak for peace, while others will fight And everybody ererybody's sure, so sure they're right But if you're searchin' for the Keys to the Kingdom Everything you're dreamin' of If you're askin' for the Keys to the Kingdom But nothin seems to be enough Let me tell you 'bout the Keys to the Kingdom Lifting us to heaven above Let me tell you 'bout the Keys to the Kingdom The power and the glory POWER AND THE GLORY OF LOVE Some seek for knowledge, who claim to be wise And may attain wisdom, in other men's eyes But the mind is a prison, with thought it's disguise And release is the freedom, once you realize The answers are the Keys to the Kingdom Everything you're dreamin' of If you're askin' for the Keys to the Kingdom But nothin seems to be enough Let me tell you 'bout the Keys to the Kingdom Lifting us to heaven above Let me tell you 'bout the Keys to the Kingdom The power and the glory POWER AND THE GLORY OF LOVE There are some who will learn what teachers can teach And thoes who believe what preachers may preach One may demand, while others beseech But just put out your hand, and dare to reach And you will find the Keys to the Kingdom Everything you're dreamin' of If you're hoping for the Keys to the Kingdom But nothin's ever quite enough Have you heard about the Keys to the Kingdom Lifting us to heaven above I'm talkin 'bout the Keys to the Kingdom The power and the glory POWER AND THE GLORY OF LOVE (break down) Keys to the kingdom The power and the glory POWER AND THE GLORY OF LOVE |
