> Some beat me like a drum
Some stroke me like a guitar Some shake me like a tambourine Some beat me into the wall In the song of my life Baby, you're the violin Some blow me like a horn Some slide me like a trombone Some smoke me like a tuba dude Some cut me like a saxophone In the song of my life Baby, you're the violin When you touch me like you touch me Don't it feel like a summer breeze When you lay down in my lonely soul, ya It brings me to my knees Think I'm makin' love to you Sweet Baby, Ya When you touch me like you touch me Well, don't it feel like a summer breeze When you lay down in my lonely soul, ya It brings me to my knees Think I'm makin' love to you Sweet Baby, Ya Some beat me like a drum Some stroke me like a guitar Sh-sh-sh-shake me like a tambourine Some beat me into the wall In the song of my life Baby, you're the violin In the song of my life Baby, you're the violin |

from Nazareth - The Catch (1984)
I never asked you for money
I only needed some time You took more than you gave and you sat on the line I never asked you for nothing I only looked for a chance I only needed some help I never asked for this dance Now you’re holding the aces The world is under your feet There’ll come a day when you smile and you won’t look so sweet You never gave me no favors I never owed you a thing You’ll never know why you dream what tomorrow will bring You don’t believe in us...you don’t believe in us You only wanted our mind You don’t believe in us...you don’t believe in us You’re only payin’ our time You never gave me no answers You never showed me no clues The day will come when I’ll watch you take a walk in my shoes You never saw when I caught it You never opened your eyes You’ll never see where you stand when your head’s in the skies (chorus) |

from Nazareth - Razamanaz (1973)
Woke up this morning, my dog was dead,
Someone disliked him and shot him through the head. Woke up this morning, my cat had died, I know I'll miss her, sat down and cried. Came home this evening, my hog was gone, People here don't like me, I think I'll soon move on. Now somethings happened, that would make a saint frown, I turned my back and my house burned down. |

Send him to the fields, send him to the wars
Send him on down to slave on the farms Steal his land, rob his soul Send him on down to dig that hole Give him no hope, give him no trial Put him in chains, break that smile Pull that barge, tote that bale Listen to him singin', hear him wail You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy Give him no peace, give him no rest Teach him to believe your god is the best Sail him away, to the promised land Send him on down into his masters hand Take his woman, take his child Take him on down to the murder mile Pull that barge, tote that bale What's that song you hear him wail Now you wonder why he's an angry man Why there's fire in your father's land And wonder now what tomorrow will bring Will you hear him screamin', will you hear him sing.

Close up the bar you know the gates of the brewery
She's out there every night And she sure ain't drinkin' tea I love that woman, she's the best one that I had But she's got this habit now and it sure is getting bad That whiskey drinkin' woman Is making a poor man out of me She's got bottles in the kitchen Even got them in my bed Most times I see her now She's three part out of her head Don't know where I went wrong I sure try to treat her right But it sure upsets me Seein' her juiced up every night That whiskey drinkin' woman Is makin' a poor man out of me Got to solve this problem Won't you help me find the key The way that things are going I'll have to buy the distillery She just stands there smilin' With a whiskey in each hand Got to think of something Don't know how much I can stand That whiskey drinkin' woman Is makin' a poor man out of me Got to get myself together, start workin' something out Maybe if I tried some booze, I'd know what it's about I love that woman, she the best one that I had But she's got this problem now And it sure is gettin' bad That whiskey drinkin' woman Is making a poor man out of me |

Born a mistake Learned fast the golden rule Never give, just take Did no favors, gave no quarter You all know the story 'bout The lamb's broadway slaughter. Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Street wise, cat's eye's Showbusiness smile Lookin' for today's mark On the golden mile Book wise, movie eyed So cool dudes. Ain't gonna do no talking When they find out they been used. Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Got to make some time Go through the changes My whole life needs some rearrangin' Self styled reject Ambitious wisher Also ran life style Guaranteed user, like a, Campaign promise from a three time loser Got to make my move soon Because, beggars can't be choosers, So I'm, Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf Turning a new leaf (McCafferty, Cleminson, Charlton, Agnew, Sweet) (copyright 1980 Nazsongs ltd.) all rights reserved.

A ship comes in from Africa
Carrying forbidden cargo Gonna bring somebody lots a trouble There's a family out in Ohio Gonna step on it and make it grow Gonna fool some people at the double Let it all go round And it all comes down A captain down in Florida Knows a man back in Chicago Every deal you know he's makin money Rico comes from Texas way With a senorita from El Paso Glad he's found the land of milk and honey Let it all go round And it all comes down ‘G' Man down in Panama Cuts a trail to Barcelona Dip-lo-matic bag will be no hassle Sails into the big T.O. Thru' the pipeline to Alaska She's the one in town with something special Maybe you maybe me maybe them Look at you look at me look at them Cut it out You don't need it anyway Sees its face in Tennessee Knows a place in Casablanca Detroit City never was a stranger On the streets of Amsterdam London town and all around us Everywhere we look we see the danger Let it all go round And it all comes down (MCCAFFERTY,AGNEW,CHARLTON,SWEET) COPYRIGHT 1989 M.A.C.S.

I’m just a body lost but my soul can be found How many miles to go How many miles to babylon I don’t know where to turn when answers all fade clear But I must find a place there’s only questions here How many miles to go How many miles to babylon How many miles to go How many miles to babylon I feel...feel like I’m on trial Who made a judge of you Are you this month’s messiah I am a fightin’ man tired of living under the gun But am I looking for love or am I looking to run How many miles to go How many miles to babylon How many miles to go How many miles to babylon I heard...I heard it on the wire That it’s all up to you Are you this month’s messiah How many miles to go How many miles to babylon |

Hollis Brown he lived On the outside of town Hollis Brown he lived On the outside of town With his wife and five children In his cabin broken down. He looked for work and money And he walked a ragged mile He looked for work and money And he walked a ragged mile Your children are so hungry That they don't know how to smile. Your baby's eyes look crazy They're tuggin' at your sleeve Your baby's eyes look crazy now They're tuggin' at your sleeve You walk the floor and you wonder why With every breath that breathe. The rats have got your flour Bad blood it got your mare The rats have got your flour Bad blood it got your mare Is there anyone that knows? Is there anyone that cares? You prayed to the Lord above To please send you a friend You prayed to the Lord above To please send you a friend Your empty pockets tell you That you ain't got no friend. Your baby's a-cryin' louder Now it's poundin' on your brain Your baby's a-cryin' louder Now it's poundin' on your brain Your wife's screams are a-stabbin' you Like dirty, drivin' rain. Your grass is turnin' black And there's no water in your well Your grass is turnin' black There's no water in your well You spent your last lone dollar On them seven shotgun shells. Way out in the wilderness A cold coyote calls Way out in the wilderness A cold coyote calls Your eyes fix on the shotgun That's hangin' on the wall. Your brain it is a-bleedin' And your legs can't seem to stand Your brain it is a-bleedin' And your legs just can't seem to stand Your eyes fix on the shotgun That you're holdin' in your hand. There's seven breezes blowin' All around the cabin door Seven breezes blowin' All around the cabin door Seven shots ring out Like the oceans pounding roar. There's seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Somewhere in the distance Somewhere in the distance There's seven new people born. |

Your brain it is a-bleedin' And your legs can't seem to stand Your brain it is a-bleedin' And your legs just can't seem to stand Your eyes fix on the shotgun That you're holdin' in your hand. There's seven breezes blowin' All around the cabin door Seven breezes blowin' All around the cabin door Seven shots ring out Like the oceans pounding roar. There's seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Seven people dead On a South Dakota farm Somewhere in the distance Somewhere in the distance There's seven new people born. |

Well, some contend that this rock'n'roll Is bad for the body, bad for the soul Is bad for the heart, bad for the mind Bad for the deaf and bad for the blind It makes some men crazy, and then they talk like fools It makes some men crazy, and then they start to drool. Unscrupulous operators could confuse Could exploit and deceive The conditional reflex theories Change the probabilities, I said it's a Crass and raucous crackass place With a Pavlov on the human race It's a terrible illness, a terrible case And usually permanent when it takes place. It's a teenage nervous breakdown It's a teenage nervous breakdown It's a teenage nervous breakdown It's a teenage nervous breakdown. |

Goodbye romance can’t take a chance
On love’s painful games I’ve called too many times on a sweetheart tree Lady lost now I count the cost Nothing seems to change I’ve called too many times on the sweetheart tree Too many times Ooh love you made a fool out of me You won again So lovin’ set me free I need some time to change my mind Before I try again I’ve been too many times to the sweetheart tree Some go some then lay in tow But love just don’t come free I’ve called too many names on the sweetheart tree Too many times Ooh love you made a fool out of me You won again So lovin’ set me free (lead) Too many times Ooh love you made a fool out of me You won again So lovin’ set me free Goodbye romance can’t take a chance On love’s painful games I’ve called too many names on the sweetheart tree |

I prayed to God and Jesus
But I guess they didn't hear My sacrfice was useless My pleas fell on deaf ears So I cried in desperation Bowed to evil sorcery. I looked to the Lord in heaven But he must have looked away My crying eyes repentant Please send her love to light my day So I cried in desperation Bowed to evil sorcery. I sold my soul Sold my soul I sold my soul to the devil. So I cried in desperation Bowed to evil sorcery. I sold my soul Sold my soul I sold my soul to the devil. Sold my soul Sold my soul I sold my soul Sold my soul Sold my soul to the devil To the devil. I sold my soul I sold my soul to the devil To the devil.

His necktie is bright red
From lookin' in one direction No flowerchild in his bed He's got oil well protection Just had to be a blind dog Chewin' on everything Took a slice of the blackbird pie She began her singing I know that your oil is black But your dipstick is pearly white Ten gallons on your head That ain't what I need tonight Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Showdown at the border The rendezvous was neutral He don't want no gossip headlines Her polaroid blackmail He said,"No way I've had mine" Just too much for him to lose Because of some Cuervo passion Cold, cold forty-five, answered in Texas fashion I know that your oil is black But the dipstick is pearly white Ten gallons on your head That ain't what I need tonight Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Bright red went to his head Tequila tension rising This is no business for the weak at heart This is no business for those with a Nervous disposition Tanned man from the f.e.d.'s Cool mohair buying off the squeeze Showdown at the border (Cleminson) (copyright 1980 Nazsongs ltd.) all rights reserved.

Here we are
We sail on a ship made of dreams And I I only exist to believe The stars The stars that I see watching me Hold me close Your arms and your love comfort me The sea Is deep and it waits endlessly Oh why To give just to take it from me Here we are We sail on a ship made of dreams And I I watch for a sign constantly The sea Is deep and it waits ceaselessly.

I tried to hang on for as long as I could
But now I can see that it just ain’t no good Our love it has wasted Right down to the core Whatever we had We don’t have anymore You’ve got to get off a road to nowhere You’ve got to get off a road to nowhere Well I tried and I tried to make things work out right But I guess we’re two people who can’t help but fight Your eyes they are open And oh so are mine We both need our freedom Don’t you think it’s about time I’m trying to get off this road to nowhere I’m trying to get off this road to nowhere (lead) Thank you for the good times we’ve had in the past But we both know enough to know good times don’t last Baby you’re just no good for me And I’m no good for you Let’s not waste our time talkin’ We both know what to do We’ve got to get off this road to nowhere It’s time to get off this road to nowhere You’ve got to get off this road to nowhere We’ve got to get off this road to nowhere (Carol Goffin) Screen Gems - emi music |

By: Frank Zappa as performed by Nazareth
Said, don't it ever get lonesome? Don't it ever get sad when you go out on the road? No, don't it ever get lonesome? Don't it ever get sad when you come here to Seattle on a four day show of the tour And you got nothing but groupies and promotors to love you and a pile of laundry by the hotel door. Don't it ever get lonesome? Don't it ever make a young man blue? Don't it ever get lonesome? Don't it ever make a young man where he?l just wanna go back home? When the P.A. system eats it, And the band plays some of the most terriblest shit you've ever known. Don't you ever miss your house in the country and your hot little mamma there? Don't you ever miss your house in the country and your hot little mamma there? Don't you better get a shot when you find out what the Road Ladies do to you. I swear someday I ain? never, I'm never gonna go out on the road again. I swear someday I ain? never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never gonna roam the country side. No more. I'm gonna hang up them ol' holiday inns, dude and watchin someone do it on the floor Don't you ever miss your house in the country and your hot little mamma there? Don't you ever miss your house in the country and your hot little mamma there? Don't you better get a shot when you find out what the Road Ladies do to you. What the road ladies do to you! |

Hear the whistle blowin' so long
Tellin' me I gotta move along Coast-to-coast gonna steal highway Railroad boy up in the guiding daybreak. Get no sleep in a boxcar Get no piece of line They catch you jumpin' a freight train They give you such a hard time. Movin' fast as my time runs out Coal is something I can live without Railroad fever got me a route Like tumbleweed, I ain't got no roots. You know, no peace in a boxcar Just can't sleep on a line They catch you jumpin' a freight train They give you such a hard time. Lead East coast towns they are Dark and cold West coast ladies They get right to my soul. But you know Can't stand long Bet all railroader's Are singin' my song.

I've seen that girl before, I've seen the boys come and go
And still she's on her own I've seen those tears before, I've seen her heart break She knows what it means to be alone There must be another way to spend her life While she is waiting She knows the dangers there,these love affairs Run hot, run cold and always take their toll It's another lonely night inside those empty rooms She knows will never be a home There must be etc. For one from the heart She's on her knees One from the heart, that's all she needs One from the heart, she can believe I've seen that girl before, I've seen boys that come and go And still she's on her own I hope somewhere, somehow,Ssomeday she'll find that special one before her heart turns cold.

I could feel her body's warmin' glow My frozen blood begn to flow She's a night woman of my dreams And I saw her glidin' on a moon beam Comes, stays, then disappears In the morning sun my vision clears.

My white bicycle, my white bicycle See that man, he's all alone Looks so happy but he's far from home Ring my bell, smile at him Better kick over his garbage bin My white bicycle, my white bicycle The rain comes down but I don't care The wind is blowing in my hair Seagulls flying in the air My white bicycle, my white bicycle Policeman shouts but I don't see him They're one thing I don't believe in To find some charge but it's not leavin' Lift both hands, his head in disgrace Shines no light upon my face Through the darkness, we still speed My white bicycle and me My white bicycle, my white bicycle |

It's the same old situation Empty days and lonely nights Filled with bitterness and frustration. Walking lonely in the cold Tryin' to find the answer Spend my money on a crystal ball And the charms of a gypsy dancer. Tryin' to break the spell you hold on me [Chorus] You're miss misery That song you lay on me Set me free, set me free Please, please, please Everyday is filled with shame My nights are filled with anger Hollow lies, forced denial If you told the truth I can't remember. You know I've got to find my way Got to find a reason Got to find your weakness So I can end your witchin' season. Got to break the spell you hold on me [Chorus] Can't think how I got myself Caught up in this nightmare Evil schemes, midnight screams Come on somebody listen to my prayer I'd give all I've got to give Just to find my way out Got it going but I can't let go I'm trapped on this crazy 'round about Tryin' to break the spell you hold on me [Chorus] |

It seems to me I’ve heard that song before
Far off in some distant land Or it may have been upon some foreign shore Burning in my heart again I’ve seen the sounds and I have felt the air Drumming in my dreams again Deja vu I don’t know now or then Enemy or maybe friend Oh but for the love of freedom Oh but for the love of you I would never, ever have seen this day So please forgive me if I weep no more For friends and lovers far away There’s been too many times to hear the names Of friends who have stayed away Maybe now and then you still recall the pain As though it was yesterday Oh but for the love of freedom Oh but for the love of you I would never, ever have seen this day So please forgive me if I weep no more For friends and lovers far away For friends and lovers far away |

Do I feel alright? I'll go antwhere you say you wanna to take me Save me, run away-ay-ay, steal away-ay-ay 'Cause I feel alright I'll do anything you say you wanna make me Take me, far away-ay-ay, run away-ay-ay We've been up all night Tryin' to avoid a situation Hold me, let me feel your way 'Cause I wanna stay Let them all start talkin' We won't give ourselves away Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Do you feel alright? An' can you see me when you're lookin' in your mirror Crazy, try to find a way, so your heart don't pay Run away-ay-ay Don't you give yourself away Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Our love leads to madness Our lova leads to madness (written by Nazareth) copyright 1982 Fool Circle Music Limited lyrics used by permission all rights reserved. reproduction prohibited |

Here I am, sitting on my porch Thinkin' my life has got to be beyond reproach Have I forgot some friends close to me Real ones that don't use me And does my woman love me now Like she loved me then Here I am,my defenses are down Will she remember me when I'm not around Will she still dream by me Or will she find a new life Will I ever get used, to being alone at night I'll never know, but would it do me any good if I did Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid Lift the lid I'll never know, but would it do me any good if I did Life is a strange brew, maybe we should not lift the lid Lift the lid (WORDS AND MUSIC BY NAZARETH) COPYRIGHT 1975 JENEVIEVE MUSIC (BMI) |

When the sun crashes into your world
Look around and you try and find your girl And you’re daring, too sick of what you see Out of town is the only place to be When your life starts to run out of juice Feel like dyin’ and you just want to get loose Prayin’ moves don’t make much sense to you Seeing red before your feeling is blue Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn Going back, getting out of this town Stretch it lean and mean, it turns you around Take your dreams and stretch them out on the street Take your turn to get back on your feet Feel the wheels singin’ over the ridge Feel the song like "Oakland" take you All the time you knew you had the itch All the girls were glad to see you Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn Girl in ol’ “V” won’t pray Don’t give you a hard time All the girls from Brooklyn say Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn Do you remember the day you left the block Your mama said you would live to regret it Coming home, coming stoned, come in hope, coming ready Are you holding steady Last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn....last exit Brooklyn |

There's a woman in New Orleans
Said to love me she was born But that was Friday payday By Sunday she was gone So I drove on down to Texas Where I did not do to well I fell hard for this woman child Turn ou she came from...well Lady Luck help me hold on Lady Luck help me hold on To one that I love Well I had no luck with women Thought I'd try my hand at cards So I headed for Nevada Gonna really take them on But the way the hands were fallin' And the way the money goes You could say it's getting colder You could say I nearly froze Lady Luck help me hold on Lady Luck help me hold on To one that I love So I started playing guitar In a southern boogie band And the ladies I was meeting Make you want to buy the farm Gettin' tired of saving souvenirs Don't remind me where they're from And the nights come on like magic In the morning it's all gone Lady Luck help me hold on Lady Luck help me hold on To one that I love Lady Luck help me hold on To one that I love Lady Luck help me hold on Lady Luck help me hold on To one that I love Lady Luck help me hold on Lady Luck help me hold on (MCCAFFERTY,AGNEW,CHARLTON,SWEET) COPYRIGHT 1989 M.A.C.S.

Two bucks an hour You can hire a car You can go most anywhere That depends on who you are You can be your own boss Takin' your own time The sun shines all the time California girls look fine You can truck on down the strip any time of night Pull an L.A. Lady to treat you right Stay home call her on the phone Sayin' come on over baby I hate to be alone L.A. Girls in the sunshine L.A. Girls in the rain I wanna tell ya, gonna go back again I'm gonna go back again Every one's in movies And every one's a star But most of them are fillin' in time Workin' in some bar They sure don't live in Bellaire Like they planned to be Their names ain't in the sidewalk For everyone to see But you can truck on down the strip any night Pull an L.A. Lady to treat you right Stay home call her on the phone Sayin' come on over baby I hate to be alone L.A. Girls in the sunshine L.A. Girls in the rain I wanna tell ya, gonna go back again I'm gonna go back again Word gets ‘round the band's in town They're bustlin' ‘round the hall Readin' last months Rolling Stone Talkin' Rock and Roll They got all the answers For everything you say And even if you pass them by They gonna tell you anyway But you can truck on down the strip any time of night Pull an L.A. Lady's gonna treat you right Stay home call one on the phone Sayin' come on over baby I hate to be alone L.A. Girls in the sunshine L.A. Girls in the rain I wanna tell ya, gonna go back again I'm gonna go back there again |

I got no time to eat
I got no time to sleep I got a truck full of stuff Should've been there last week I've been livin' in truck stops My body feels used Got the hamburger that's right, yeah The kentucky fried blues Flyin' high in my cab Got my foot on the gas Got to get there tonight Showin' nothin' but a pass Tired of livin' in truck stops, have mercy My body feels used Got the hamburger, that's right, yeah Kentucky fried blues Even in the fast lane Seems to slow down my brain Got one hell of a deadline Riggers do not complain Tired of livin' in truck stops Lord my body feels used Got the hamburger that's right yeah, yeah, yeah Kentucky fried blues.

Who took the smile out of your face
Who put the tears and sadness in its place Who took the sun out of your sky Don't turn around or ask for reasons why No place to run, nowhere to hide It's just another love turned bad Some smoke that's gettin' in your eyes It's just another heartache,just another heartache Just another hurt to take Another bridge for you to cross It's nothing but a heartache, nothing but a heartache Just another big mistake Another game you have lost It ain't nothing but a heartache Always wore your heart out on your sleeve You said you'd always cared and needed to believe There comes a time to give, there comes a time to take But a sentimental heart will be the first to break Don't try to run Don't try to hide It's just another love turned bad Some smoke that's clouded up your eyes.

See the girl with the changing faces
See the boy with the aching smile Empty love's burned out traces See them walking down midnight mile Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you Watch them dancing on a frozen ocean See them skate where the ice is thin Empty love that's a cold emotion See the tears falling in the rain Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you See the mist on the magic mountain Watch the moon in a blood red sky Empty love that's a dried up fountain Never change and never ask him why Juliet look what love has done to you Juliet love has made a fool of you.

I'm goin' back to New York City
Times Square sure will be shinin' bright I know it sure looks pretty But I don't go down every night. I'm gonna take in Memphis You know the one down in Tennessee And if you wanna boogie Now that's the place to be. Sittin' in a bar in Macon Drinkin' something called Rebel Yells When I thought I heard someone ringing I guess she's a southern bell. We just cut out of El Paso It just fries there in that desert sun And if you've ever been down there, man Then you know why we run. I got jet lag And livin' out an overnight bag Time changes every day They do things a different way Back in the U.S.A. Tryin' hard to make a phone call "Long distance over seas" "Yes, ma'am, I did say Scotland" "Could you spell that again for me please?" Way down west to Colorado You know that it just blew my mind I'd love to go back there next trip I sure hope we get some time. Driving down a Detroit freeway Just lookin' at those concrete walls Hey but it's a good town to rock'n'roll in "What do you mean the police closed the goddamned hall?" Flyin' home tomorrow To be there's gonna be just great And after some time with my lady I'm gonna be back to rock'n'roll in the States. (copyright 1974 mountain/carlin music) |

Sad to be alone Your only comfort is the telephone Homesick again Thoughts of far away Silence is the only way to say Ain't it a shame What's goin' down, she don't understand Can't you be with her every night Why must it be, you're away so long But she plays along, and it's alright People all around You don't see or hear them make a sound It's not the same What's goin' down, she don't understand Can't you be with her every night Why must it be, you're away so long But she plays along, and it's alright Countin' out the days That don't help to ease the days away The price you pay Homesick again (WORDS AND MUSIC BY NAZARETH) COPYRIGHT 1975 JENEVIEVE MUSIC (BMI) |

Why don't you tell me that it's over
Why do you keep this hangin' on Pack up your bags and run for cover Say what you mean and see it done Why don't you cut me loose, you don't need me Lift up your dress and walk away There's nothin' left you can say to please me You're just a dog who's had it's day You beat around the bush and mumble About the good old days we had Your face grows longer as you crumble You had the good now taste the bad Let it all hit the fan Let it all hit the fan You promised me nothing would change you More empty words from an empty soul The same old stories you still cling to The truth be told you leave me cold You used to lead the dance and fumble Howl in the night you could not sleep You climbed to the top of the hill then tumbled Too many promises come cheap.
