Well she's the kind of girl that you dream about Got the big blue eyes that'll knock you out Got a hand on your wallet, and a smil on her face And a heavenly voice, that says let's go to my place Well she knows what she wants... she's a woman in love And she wants what she knows... she's a woman in love A whole lotta money, and a passel of clothes No one got to tell ya... she's a woman in love She's about as hot as a smokin' gun A Saturday night special, she packin' plenty of fun She got me sweatin' bullets on a cold Winter night I got one in the chamber with the safety off You know I feel all right Well she knows what she wants... she's a woman in love And she wants what she knows... she's a woman in love A diamond necklace and a string of pearls No one got to tell ya... she's a woman in love She's a hard workin' girl, spends her days on her feet She got the pulse of the office, never skips a beat But don't you know it's a shame, yeah it ain't fair She works twice as hard as the boys upstairs She put in more hours for half the wage Ain't no wonder this girl's in a rage Well she knows what she wants... she's a woman in love And she wants what she knows... she's a woman in love A whole lotta money, and a passel of clothes No one got to tell ya... she's a woman in love Well she knows what she wants... she's a woman in love And she wants what she knows... she's a woman in love A diamond necklace and a string of pearls No one got to tell ya... she's a woman in love |

Well she was plantin' her feet on the sidewalk Listenin' for signs of the small talk Waitin', hesitatin', got tired of all that waitin' Decided to walk around - that blonde bull She's been waitin' once again on the home town There ain't enough room this time 'round I gotta chasin' that woman all around town Seems that satisfaction just can't be found 'Cause she's a side street swinger She's a side street swinger Got a kiss on her lips for the askin' Just gotta keep movin' - She's bear walkin - She's gotta wiggle her way up them sidestreets Lookin' for a ride through town Well I've been savin' my money for a week Tryin' to be somethin' real sweet I can't find the one, you know my luck is so dumb She's probably walkin' all over the street She's a side street swinger She's a side street swinger Got a kiss on her lips for the askin' Just gotta keep movin' - She's bear walkin all night She's bare walkin' all time She's been waitin' once again on the home town There ain't enough room this time 'round But the woman's too scared to try and slow down Those bulls will just love to take her down town - downtown She's gotta wiggle her way up them sidestreets Lookin' for a ride through town She's a side street swinger She's a side street swinger Got a kiss on her lips for the askin' Just gotta keep movin' - She's bear walkin all night She's bear walkin all night She's bare walkin' all time |

Maybe there's another place Some other time or space I never have to leave something to believe Maybe love will find a way And this time come to stay Another way to be if love could just find me But I wake up dreamin' again And, oh, the things I see I wake up dreamin' again I only wish I knew how o make this dream come true Every new day brings sunshine and everything I've seen it somewhere before One more reason why I don't let it pass me by Another way to feel With a love that can be real But I wake up dreamin' again And, oh, the things I see I wake up dreamin' again I only wish I knew how o make this dream come true Close my eyes and your love, like a warm rain, Washes over me Maybe there's another place Some other time or space I never have to leave something to believe Maybe love will find a way And this time come to stay Another way to be if love could just find me But I wake up dreamin' again And, oh, the things I see I wake up dreamin' again I only wish I knew how o make this dream come true |

Standing by the ocean watch it tear away the shore Glide out upon the desert, the horizon is the door And though your voice is shouting above the wind it can't be heard Drop all sense of reason, it's there you'll find your worth And though you are srrounded, feeling quite alone There's a light to guide you home If you stand with your face to the wind off the water At the point of lands end where the ocean begins Look to the memory of the ones gone before The light and meaning of the voices on the wind Searching for safe passage as you knock on every door You still can hear the howling of the mongrel dogs of war You call our for some comfort seeking shelter from the night A raging rain's upon you feeling tired of the fight And though you are surrounded, feeling quite alone There's a light to guide you home If you stand with your face to the wind off the water At the point of lands end where the ocean begins Look to the memory of the ones gone before The light and meaning of the voices on the wind Thier words carry over water, and fall back down to earth What follows is the silence as you contemplate their worth A vision comes before you, but the meaning's still unclear Standing at the threshold as you watch it disappear And though you are surrounded, feeling quite alone There's a light to guide you home If you stand with your face to the wind off the water At the point of lands end where the ocean begins Look to the memory of the ones gone before The light and meaning of the voices on the wind |

The TV cold fire burning
Been up all night And the light has left your eyes I was always runnin' to you Not fast enough My little boy blue Ever get where you wanted to go? You knew the way The times, the good and the bad Was all that we had In the end it let us down I'm tired and I feel the blame All my prayers sound the same Stranded here with no relief Abandoned here beyond belief Vale of tears Empty room Once was filled Cold and still This ragged town so desperate in the rain Has no mercy, no shelter from the pain Never mind the promised tomorrow Given for a heartfelt sorrow Always tomorrow the promise In a vale of tears The raucous sounds and shining lights Weave their tales into the night And the knowing lingers bright All the love my sweet tender friend It's still around, it never ends The past is just an alibi It's all the same The weather's turning warmer every day And I think the rains are done At least that's what they say Thought I saw you just the other night I knew my eyes weren't seeing right Then again I see you all the time Everywhere Vale of tears Empty room Once was filled Cold and still This ragged town so desperate in the rain Has no mercy, no shelter from the pain Never mind the promised tomorrow Given for a heartfelt sorrow Always tomorrow the promise In a vale of tears Even now this anger's replacin' faith I somehow The heart remembers you Never mind the promised tomorrow Given for a heartful of sorrow Always tomorrow the promise In a vale of tears Tell me 'bout the promise tomorrow Given for a heartful of sorrow Always remember the promise In a vale of tears |

I close my eyes and try to remember
Lookin back on it now it seems so much like a dream All the places I ever wandered, all the kisses I ever stole Yours are the ones I still remember, they never grow cold They're just under the radar My heart is a mountain, I'd walk on fire to get back to you Reaching out for your touch, I'm clinging to your sould Thought I'm not far from sight No I'm not far from sight now I'm just under the radar Under the radar It's a place where all is forgiven Under the radar Where love never grows old It's lying just below the timber line Under the radar Where the spirit goes on and on The time has come and gone, all my options blown to dust When a gentle tap upon my shoulder left me reelin from my past I was standing on a stretch of highway, going back to see a friend Thought I'd reached the point of no return, but came back under the radar I've been there ever since Under the radar It's a place where all is forgiven Under the radar Where love never grows old It's lying just below the timber line Under the radar Where the spirit goes on and on You can trace your thoughts of darkness with the movements of the sun When you see what stands before you and allow yourself a dream Though it's not far from sight now No it's not far from sight It's just under the radar Under the radar Where all is forgiven Under the radar Where love never grows old Lying just below the timber line Under the radar Where the spirit carries on Under the radar Under the radar Where love never grows old It's lying just below the timber line Under the radar Where the spirit goes on and on and on and on and on |

His tail-lights flickered as he pulled up to the truck stop The same old crowd was hanging out again tonite He said fill up my tank while I go check my load It feels like it's shifting all around He was the kind of man Do all he could Above all he had integrity But he was so young And on a ten city run In love with a truck stop girl As he went inside hew was merrily greeted By the girl with who he was in love She held out a glass and said have another This is the last time we can meet With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye That would turn any good man's blood to wine All his eyes could see, all his eyes could see Was the stares from all those around him He ran out to the lot and climbed into his rig And drove off without tightening down It was a terrible thing To see what remained of the rig that poor danny was in But he was so young On a ten city run In love with a truck stop girl But he was so young On a ten city run In love with a truck stop girl |

Well they say time loves a hero but only time will tell If he's real, he's a legend from heaven If he ain't he was sent here from hell Hear me well Seein' ain't always believin' Just make sure it's the truth that you're seein' Eyes sometimes lie, eyes sometimes lie They can be real deceivin' I got an Uncle in Puerto Rico Spends his days in the sun his nights in the casinos He left the States many years ago Took a fishin' boat to Puerto Rico Now my aunt, she is sad and lonely She'll never know that she drove him away As a coward I admire his courageous ways Well they say time loves a hero but only time will tell If he's real, he's a legend from heaven If he ain't he was sent here from hell Some say my uncle, that he's a zero His life is as a shell, he left it back at Stateside I'd say he's doin' pretty well, without his shell Bumming 'round the beaches of Puerto Rico The beauty of the sunrise and sunset To his friends he wish he could tell They're at home still runnin' for bells Better San Juan than that blue collar hell Well they say time loves a hero but only time will tell If he's real, he's a legend from heaven If he ain't he was sent here from hell |

She ain't real friendly for no good reason Claims her life's been filled with treason Says she's cursed by a toothless gypsy Wonderin' why her life's so greasy With doulbe blades she dulls her senses Spiteful girl by all consensus All her life it's been the same Hell she don't even like her name She longs to be the ingenue To leading men tall dark and handsome But now the play has passed her by... oh my There's no exit Oh no there's no way out at all There's no exit Jumped a train in Italy On her way to gay Paris Down in the Loire Valley She got sho drunk she couldn't see Stumblin' through a metro station In a mood for conversation Fortune teller read her palm Told her that her time was gone She longs to be the ingenue To leading men tall dark and handsome But now the play has passed her by... oh my There's no exit Oh no there's no way out at all There's no exit She used to model as a child With Bardot's looks and Gigi's laughter Enfant terrible creation Of a sockless adman's mind Played her first recital at the tender age of nine Strains of Clare de Lune Mater sipping wine Pater in the garden gazing At those ponies grazing The spoils of a lonely child She longs to be the ingenue To leading men tall dark and handsome Once just a jet-trash kid Down at Les Halles Her frequent trips to Nice In Monaco she was always welcome She was embraced by all society Along the way she lost her charms Now the play has passed her by |

Heard you got an infection Just before your lewd rejection Wait'll the shit hits the fan You couldn't turn him down Hold your address book above your knees And kissed your soft legs there He was on top of the pop stars You couldn't turn him down You were a sweet girl When you were a cheerleader But I think you're much better now Bought a few reds from your neighboorhood dealer And you passed out in the back of a car You were too messed up to climb out What if your old man had found out |

Like a steamboat floatin' in a wild monsoon
Woulda' had a better chance to see me through Tails are high and the winds are bearin' down Cable touchin' cable, live wires on the ground The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all Diamonds rushing by in a pale gray light Balck thunder rolling with the crack of steel white Fever runnin' high, spirit ebbin' low Caught on the highway with too many mile to go Maladjusted malcontent Deliberate deception with a wounded heart Temptation... Temptation in an empty world The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all It's a rumored affair Something cheap in the air You been playin' for luck But you always get caught Double rider on a rain streaked road Thunder rippin', engine screamin' north Can't escape a fool in terror The kiss of death and now you're gone And once again I'm all alone The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all The blues don't tell it all |

Oh the siren song is strong sometimes... Texas radio They sure do play it hard and fast - sell it soft and low A silky voice she spoke to me from down in San Antone "It's ladies night in Italy, and gentlemen should know" When I saw that neon sign, knew just where to go Her shoulders soft and I pulled off, her headlights all aglow A bartender said to me, boy I want you to meet my sister She's high-strung and a little young, but she's a real Texas twister A real Texas twister I said "How young is too young? How fast is too fast? Whoa high is too high? Yah, how high is too high?" She said "How long is this ride?" Well how long can you last? You're gonna find out mister, when you meet that Texas twister Oh now in the light she looked all right when we stepped outside I knew that it was meant to be when she begged me for a ride That bartender said to me, boy take your money back Before you're done you're gonna need it son You might have a heart attack I seen the sights now, Paris, Rome, and I ain't sentimental I still remember how she said, yes I do, "Is this a Continental?" No babe it's just for flash and I paid cash, she hugged me up real tight Lay back honey I'll drive you home 'round the world tonight She knew where every roadhouse lies, clear down to the border Long neck Lone Stars just her size, clearly made to order Knew how to paint a cowboy town, long before I missed her She picked me up; she put me down, she's a real Texas twister I said "How young is too young? How fast is too fast? Oh how high is too high? Yeah how high is too high?" She said "How long is this ride?" Yeah how long can you last? You're gonna find out mister, when you meet that Texas twister (yeah) How high is too high? How high is too high? How high is too high |

Picked up on my phone in Houston Everybody answered, everybody answered but they won't say why Then this dancer grabbed me down by the bus stop And she said I'm takin' you with me to the Texas Rose cafe I got a fast car, it's a jaguar, and I'll get you to the plane on time Drinkin' Lone Star, play guitar, we'll have a real good time I said love to be found in Austin, Love to be found in Austin town, I replied that I would try, but you see my time is not my own 'Cause when I was just a big time low ball fool My friend Leroy came to me He said look out your window Does the first man you see look like me? I'm sooooore displeased Since that time I changed my mind About the things I'm up to Yet the things around me stay just the same 'Cause outside my hotel window is a sign that turns from red to green It says chop suey and join the U.S. Marines |

Gettin' it while you can Before the fascination goes Down to the very last man Where it stops nobody knows Nothin to hold you back when the feelin's right Hidin' from the day and waitin' for the night It's just a pretty hard thing To keep gettin' back up after being knocked down Ain't no backin' down Ain't no turnin' of the other cheek The rules of the rest of the town Ain't the same ones out here on the street Lookin' for anything that'll make your emotions stir Like walkin' the street with some tight-skirt sister It's just a pretty hard thing To keep gettin' back up after being knocked down I'm caught in a crossfire Of a hopeless disillusion Nothin' but chain link and barbed wire Defining the confusion Ain't really enough to hold back the winter wind Really don't know if it's keppin you out or it's keepin' me in It's just a pretty hard thing To keep gettin' back up after being knocked down It's just a pretty hard thing, A pretty tough town Ya keep gettin' back up after being knocked down It's just a pretty hard thing, a pretty tough town |

She don;t look like her mother
Nothing like her father How else can you explain it must be something in the water Pig tails, overalls, freckles on her face Skinny as a toothpick turned side ways, Something happened to her when she turned sixteen, From a little Dixie Chicken to a Mississippi Queen, She spent her days a fishin with a bamboo cane Every night skinny dippin in the Ponchatrain IF you were living breatin, had two feet You would be stalking that girl cause she looked so sweet You could always find her when the night time fell, Drinkin of a bucket from an old stone well, Drinking from her hand, Dancing to the moon, She don't look like her mother, nothing like her father, How else can you explain it must be something in the water. I never will forget that look in her eye The night she took me down to the riverside, She wrapped herself around me like a honey suckle vine An let me have a taste of wild cherry wine You could always find her when the nighttime fell Drinking of a bucket from an old stone well Drinking from her hand Singing to the moon She dont look like her mother Nothing like her father Folks round here say it's something in the water Two straight months without any rain I never ever saw that girl again But I still got her picture Burning in my head Dancing in a downpour Soaking wet. You could always find when the night time fell Drinking of a buck of an old stone well Drinking from her hand howling at the moon She dont look like her mother nothing like her father How else can you explain it must be something in the water She dont look like her mother nothing like her father Folks round here say it something in the water |

Well I'm waitin' for something to take place Something to take me away from this race 'Round city to city, town to town Runnin' around in the shoes of a clown And that desperate, no count, desperado A thief of love, my business is the street I be shakin' 'em down In old Colorado Texas she's nice, but Georgia's oh so sweet Steal away with me darlin' your lovin' just can't be beat So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move You're a dream, and that's all that I ask for So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you Skin it back (skin it back) Somethin' real, somethin' to feel I can't find a soul who'll take on this mess It's those rock and roll hours, early graves without flowers Please, please darlin' put my mind at rest I'm beggin' please darlin' put my mind at rest So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move You're a dream, and that's all that I ask for So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you Skin it back tell it to you Skin it back tell it to you Skin it back tell it to you Skin it back tell it to you |

Six feet of snow comin' through my radio It's rainin' in stilettos from here clear down to Mexico My hands they're numb from hangin' on that Steering wheel They're frozen tight, hope the wind Don't blow me off the road tonight Don't you know the ice and snow Is sneakin' in through my windows Don't you know how much I hate to Be so cold and so alone I'm comin' home If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side I'd be lying next to her, next to her tonight Sweet New Orleans, that's where my girl She waits for me Hair so long and eyes so green She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen Don't you know the ice and snow Is sneakin' through this boy's window Don't you know how much I hate to Be so cold and so alone I'm comin' home If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side I'd be lying next to her, next to her tonight |

Every night she sits there TV blasting in her face People runnin' runnin' to and fro, it's such a frantic pace But in her hand she's got control, remote as that may seem A certifiable obsession a broadcast malady When all is said and done she's in love with the silver screen With the silver screen Video tape movies where she cashes in her dreams Ghostly illuminations how they brighten up her scene Her perception of reception is her lone reality What to eat and what to wear she edits out without a care The rest falls through the cracks, an unconscious stream When all is said and done she's in love with the silver screen With the silver screen In a city full of wishes that she shut out long ago If wishes were a penny we all know which way she'd go Gvien choice 'tween perfect health and peace throughout the world Apocalypse utopia or space not explored When all is said and done she's in love with the silver screen |

Oh I am just a vagabond
A drifter on the run And eloquent profanity It rolls right off my tongue And I have dined in palaces Drunk wine with Kings and Queens But darlin', oh darlin' You're the best thing I've ever seen Won't you roll me easy Oh slow and easy Take my independence With no apprehension,no tension You walki' talkin' dream paradise Sweet pair a' dice Well I been across this country From Denver to the ocean And I never met girls who could sing so sweet Like the angels that live in Houston Singin' "Roll me easy, so slow and easy... Play that Concertina,I'll be your temptress..." And baby I'm defenseless Singin' harmony In unison Sweet harmony Gotta hoist your flag and I'll beat your drum |

Red streamliner rollin'
rollin' down the track the things you see With your wheels in motion through desert, mountain, ocean I hear you every night, is it a dream? Red streamliner rollin' down, comin' down on me Red streamliner rollin', rollin' long so free Your past keeps comin' back on me To far and near, away from here Where people move a mile a minute This hurricane livin' with you and me in it Long into the night, that whistle offers light Red streamliner rollin' I wish you'd tell me 'bout the things you see I'm lookin', lookin' down the tracks you ride Knowin' that they're your only guide I see them every night, is it a dream? And when the sidewalks roll up at night Just as stations pass by Once the leader of the wild, wild west Hurricane livin' been a lifelong song Now you're cast of steel and cast aside Broken dreams maybe, but you haven't died |

Right down near Ohio Where you can watch the planes at night People line up to watch each flight I said watchin' them planes I wish I was on one I'm sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my red head dream If I could only see her tonight Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta! I said yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, got to get back to you Well you can drop me off on Peachtree I got to feel that Georgia sun And the women there in Atlanta They make you awfully glad you come I said watchin' them planes I wish I was on one I'm sittin' here thinking 'bout my crazy dream If I could only be there tonight Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta! I said yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, got to get back to you We make a day and how just you and me But the music plays all night They got the boogie band blowin' that's bound for hell And when they get to movin' they never stop You just keep on playin' that down home beat You just keep on layin' it down hot I wish I was on one I'm sittin' here thinkin' bout my red haired dream If I could only see her tonight Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta! I said yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, got to get back to you |
