She's weighin' on my mind and it won't let up
I couldn't get enough of her
She's out on the town and she's all dressed up
I couldn't get enough of her
She walked into the room and the place lit up
I couldn't get enough of her
Distance is lifting me up
I couldn't get enough of her love
I couldn't get enough of her

Here's a song for you I play
From all of my life, from all of my days
Life is short but the summer is long
And we could get together a lot before the fall
And when you get near, close enough to hear, my mind just settles
The thoughts just clear
And I could touch you right
And I could rush you right and
Them walls gonna fall like the full moon-light

Yeah Yeah

Been stuck in the middle of a
Vendetta between
Me and myself
I sure could use a witness
But I just ain't found one yet

I sent a message in a bottle
Took another swallow
I heard it didn't get there
I heard that it had missed ya
Well, this is what it said

Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the middle
and it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend

Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the middle
and it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend

Yeah, yeah

Cheap rum, and cheap wine,
Cheap money, cheap time
These things do not exist
But what makes that temptation
Just so hard to resist?

That stolen Picasso,
The mess above your head
I wish that you could hear me
This is what I said

Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the middle
and it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend

Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the middle
and it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend

Yeah, yeah

On the highway
On the freeway
In the airport
In the airplane
In the airtrain

In Brooklyn U.S.A.
To a Tinsel Town
Where now
What the Dodgers play

And where they fired it
Where they tried it
Where they doubled it
Where they tripled it
Where they flippin' it

And where the car's parked
Where the girls dance naked
Where they know when you're fakin' it

And where the rubber meets the road yea
Where the hot meets the cold
Poor meet the soul
Where the young meet the old
Truth be told
I got somethin' on my mind
Y'all gotta know

I got a brother named Lee
Look just like me
He gotta lotta enemies
Got a brother named Lee
Look just like me
Both sides of the Mississippi (x2)

On the highway


On the freeway
In the airport
On the airtrain
In the airplane

In Brooklyn U.S.A.
To the Tinsel Town
Where now
What the Dodgers play

And when they're searchin' for something
That you will never find
When they lookin' at her and say 'so fine'
When they keep saying it was suicide
When they never seen that look in her father's eye

Where the rubber meet the road
Where the hot meet the cold
The spirit meet the soul
The young meet the old
I say truth be told
I got somethin' on my mind
Y'all gotta know

I got a brother named Lee
Look just like me
He gotta lotta enemies
Got a brother named Lee
Looks just like me
Both sides of the Mississippi (x2)

Both sides of the Mississippi yea
Both sides of the Mississippi yea
Both sides
Both sides
Both sides of the Mississippi yea

I've watched a country move slow
I've watched a city for a dollar get sold
I've watched a bella take off her clothes
I watched the miles through the car window

And every waking moment I'm alive
I'm searching for you whether I know it,
Or whether I'd realized
Well every waking moment I'm alive
I'm searching for you whether I know it
Or whether I've realized
Every waking moment I'm alive

I've been to Paris
I've been to Rome
Never been too lost, but I lie and say I've gone
I've been touched by a woman that I lost
I've been real high
I've been real low

And every waking moment I'm alive
I'm searching for you whether I know it,
Or whether I'd realized
Well every waking moment I'm alive
I'm searching for you whether I know it
Or whether I'd realized
Every waking moment I'm alive

Every waking moment I'm alive

They say help is comin
They say help is on it's way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
They run for cover
They got no answer
Why they left him for dead

They say help is comin
They say help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today

Help is comin
They say is help is on its way
They shot him down
And he was innocent today
They run for cover
They got no answer
Why they left him for dead

Help is comin
They say help is on its way

(La la la) (La la la) (La la la) Without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.

I keep hearin'
That the end is nearin'.
Every other week there's another villian.

John Lennon tried to help stop the killin'
The sorry thing is that nobody listened.

The city and the country they divided.
They pointin' their fingers.
They're callin' each other liars.

And it's a shame..
Traded on Jesus' name.

And since the ages of Abel and Cain
Pleasure and pain.
Heroin and cocaine.

The father's insane
The son is kinda strange.
The self-inflected shotgun
Blast in the face.

(And now)
These crooked politicians.
They ordering the killin'
Of innocent civilians.
They build another prison
For the children to fill them.

(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la) Say without you I'd be all alone.
(La la la)

Been left for dead

Sold down river to the cousin of the king
Been left for dead

Every time I see its just enough
Cause you and me were meant to be together in love

And I said all my life
See I been spending all this time
Everytime I see, its just enough
Cause you and I were meant to be together in love

(Chorus)

You got your coat on
Got me focused on
Dont move and slow motion
Every time I see its just enough
Cause you and I were meant to be together in love

And I said all my life
See I been spending all this time
Everytime I see, its just enough
Cause you and I were meant to be together in love

(Chorus) x2

Mr. Dali Lamas
Another sister's shootin' heroin tomorrow
Amputees in Freetown
Sierra Leone's
The church wasn't honest
The state put the youth in a harness
Creatin' hostility among us
Teacher said no college
Still the kid's gotta get a check with a couple commas
People wanna bomb us
More people gotta scatter and run from us
You can blame it on Zeus and Apollo and Adonis

But what you've done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
You're pulling yourself away

But what you've done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
You're pulling yourself away

I've been knowing her for years
I've been seeing her for years
She got dark, dark wavy hair
With a voice like she just don't care
She got a skirt with a halter top
She's got a dad who never gave a fuck
She drinks a beer with her mom 'til dawn
She got knocked up in a pickup truck
But she got engaged when she was nineteen
To this dude who was acting insane
Had a .45 that he always cleaned
Said one day one day one too many days
Now she ducked and she ran away
Never to be heard from, never to be seen
I check the cover of a magazine
I'm just wondering how, just wondering how

But what you've done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
You're pulling yourself away

I've been sinning
I've been livin'
I've been beaten
By Saturdays
On a diamond
I lay on a diamond
On a diamond
I lay awake
D'Artagnan
Good ol' D'Artagnan
He ain't got a thing on me
I've been minding
To my field of timing
Too bad your time in
It just never came

Well I don't know how else to say it
In a diffrent way
But why don't you just fade away
'Cause there's a battle going on
Down south of Babylon
So why don;t you just fade away

I've been dealing
I've been healing
I've been dealing
A crooked game
Thieving pirates

Got the law man
The con man
The liquor store man
Got the man at the premiere to "Spider-Man"
Got the old man calling on the young man
Got the soul man
Trying to keep a hold man
I seen the stars lookin in her eyes
So many times I tried
Seen a man who caught the rainbow's end
He claimed
That the pot of gold resided within

For a name in the U.S.A.
For a little bit of fame today
For a name in the world today
You want to fly high
You want to fly high
You want to fly
You want to fly
You want to fly high

For a name in the world today
For a little bit of fame today
For a name in the U.S.A.
You want to fly high
You want to fly high
You want to fly
You want to fly
You want to fly high

Got the this is your land man
This is my land man
Got the blood on the tracks man
Got the guilty man
Got the innocent man
Got the buffalo soldier
The dreadlock Rastaman
Seen the stars looking in her eyes
So many times I've tried
Talked to a man who caught the
rainbow's end he found
That the pot of gold resided within

For a name in the world today
For a little bit of fame today
For a name in the U.S.A.
You want to fly high
You want to fly high
You want to fly
You want to fly

For a name in the U.S.A.
For a little bit of fame today
For a name in the U.S.A.
You want to fly high
You want to fly high
You want to fly
You want to fly
You want to fly high

I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies
I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies

Something happens when
You're caught searching for an answer
When you're stuck in the middle
Of a place that you don't belong
When you start to lose sight of what's right and wrong
When we started it was innocent
'Cause when we started it was innocent

I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies
I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies

Until we meet again
Until it's like it was
Until then
Until the answers start raining down
Until the skies open up until the trumpet starts
Until then
Until the city and the county ain't divided
Until then
Until the spirit and the mind ain't fighting
Until the scenes of tomarrow and today finally play

I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies
I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies

Sometimes I miss a step
I stumble here and there
I'm findin' my way home
If I'm lost then I'll admit
Sometimes i plain forget
I'm findin' my way home
You can try and stand in my way
You can say what you're gonna say
But I'm finding my way home

Things have been getting real heavy these days
The media the system
the people chasing pay
Somebody's got a rifle he won't turn the other cheek
Now its his turn

Things have been getting real hectic these days
An eye for an eye
A spade is a spade
They're shooting him down and he's running away
That was their turn

I believe in
The same thing that makes the night become day
Tide and the water
Sons and the daughters
Can't hide it can't fight it
Love
I'm a say it again

It's the same thing that makes the moonlight
Meet up with the sunlight
Can't fight it can't buy it
Love... I'm a say it again

When cut deep the same blood we bleed
We're not immune to addiction or disease
Got violent deaths in our family trees
Now it's our turn

Things have been seeming real ready these days
From the North to the South to the East to the West
Happiness will you put it to your chest
When it's your turn

The woman that I love
Is forty feet tall
She's a movie star
She's all in the papers
And everywhere i go
People hand me quarters
And they pat me on the back
They treat me like im famous
I'll never leave her side
'Cause today can be dangerous
And when the night arrives
The light hit her features
And the cars drive by
Just so they could see her
And she never bats an eye
When someone takes her picture

Mr.Officer if you've come to take her
Then that means one of us
Gonna end up in a stretcher
Gonna end up in the papers, going end up in the papers, yeah

If i had a pistol
I'd brandish it and wave it
She's the only one alive that knows that I'm not crazy
She's gonna testify on my behalf
Down at the Navy
So I can get some peace
And provide for my babies
I got a stick and a bottle
I'll pretend I got a razor
Helicopters and cameras all shottin' for the station
They say that a wild man defending his lady
But for some odd reason they keep calling you a painting

Well I'm waiting on the day
When the people walk free to see
When the penitentiary is on fire
When there's no need
To bleed
For your mother or your brother
Or the one that bones before you whoa
Well I'm waiting on a time when people walk free to see
From the penitentiary in our mind
When there's no need to bleed
For your father
Or your son
Or the one that you've become
When the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fire

You know it ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There's no words to describe it
In French or in English
Well, diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away

Rollin' down the highway
like a rocket got a minute to town now--
Can't stop it with the wheel in my hand
as I stand on the
floor of the board of this car on the road got this
woman in the back seat
she's my wifey in the middle of delivery man she saves me to this
day I don't know why
she picked me up when I was
down on the road with the wind when it blowed

Well the son's gonna rise in a mile--
In a mile you'll be feeling fine--
In a mile you will see after me you'll be
out of the dark, yeah you'll get your shot, yeah the
son's gonna rise in a mile--
In a mile you'll be feeling fine-
In a mile you will see after me you'll be
out of the dark, yeah you'll get your shot, yeah

God I'm headed to town now
Can't stop it
With the wheels in my hand
As I stand
On the floor
Of the board
Of this car
On the road
Got this woman in the back seat
she's my wifey
In the middle of the delivery
Man she saves me
To this day I don't know why
She picked me up
When i was down on the road
With the wind when it blowed

Well a son's gonna rise in a mile
In a mile
You'll be feeling fine
In a mile you will see
After me
You'll be out of the dark, yeah
You'll get your shot

One day he's a Greek
One day he's Italian
He's 42 years old
He's George from Baltimore
He's a hustler
Making money on the street every day
What he does with his dough
Is a mystery
It's a shame Petey Reds thinks he's gamblin'
Everybody knows George is gettin' high
But he'll swear on his mother's grave
That he spends all his dough
On the horses at the Pimlico
Hit 'em for 700 last night
Now he's got his hand out
Somethin' ain't right
You can call it profit
You can call it lost
If he gets that train back to Baltimore

<i>[chorus:]</i>
200,000 in counterfeit 50 dollar bills
<i>[repeat]</i>

George can turn a ten to a grand real quick
To spend on his medicine
He ain't gettin' sick
His doc's gotta Benz
A white girlfriend
Now the state's gotta Benz
The country's got a Benz 'cause
She could turn the lights out
Over at the White House
Still George has got to get his
Looking for a pocket for his 50 dollar bills
Looking for a thruway to his thrills
On the train ride back to Baltimore

<i>[chorus]</i>
<i>[repeat]</i>

Everybody knows when he's coming to town
They're locking the doors
And they don't make a sound
People want him dead but he won't die yet
First he's got to live
With the things that he did
People want him leaving
But he isn't leaving soon
He gets him some smokes
And some hoes
And a hotel room
Then you best duck when he's through
He's clinching his fists
And he's looking for you

'Cause Darren's got an appetite
For lightin' dynamite
And letting it
Blow up in his hands
<i>[repeat]</i>

Ava's got a Frank Sinatra tune
Ava's got the sun
And the wind
And the moon
Ava's got a lawyer
And a baller
And a full-foot taller
And a bullfighter from Spain too
But I guess you could never forget
The way she moves
She removes your stress
"You ain't got a clue 'bout nothing like this"
That's what she says
And she means what she says

See Ava's got an appetite
For lightin' dynamite
And letting it blow up in her hand
<i>[repeat]</i>

He was down on his luck
Put his bag in the back of his black Cadillac Coupe DeVille
He had a meeting at the crossroad
But he didn't know that his soul was about to get killed
You can leave me lonely,
You can take my riches,
You can take my life, but my soul been saved.
He felt the cut of a sword, but the pen's mightier
Then he spread his wings and he flew away.
If anything... is happening...I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
For your ass mother fuckin' fast
How you be running in the day?
Now you're gonna feel how,
How it feels to be running when you can't get away
You can leave me lonely,
You can take my riches,
You can take my life, but my soul been saved.
He felt the cut of a sword, but the pen's mightier
Then he spread his wings and he flew away.
If anything... is happening...I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
If anything... is happening...I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back (yeah)
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back (yeah)
Well he was down on his luck
Put his bag in the back of his black Cadillac Coupe DeVille
He had a meeting at the crossroad
But he didn't know that his soul was about to get killed
You can leave me lonely,
You can take my riches,
You can take my life, but my soul been saved.
He felt the cut of the sword, but the pen's mightier
Then he spread his wings and he flew away.
If anything... is happening...I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
If anything... is happening...I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back (yeah)
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back (yeah)
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back
I'm comin' back (yeah)
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay
I'm comin' back... I'm comin' back to stay

You're walking down the street
You've got this white Chevy Lumina undercover
Checking you to see
They're checking your I.D.
'Cause it's a fine time
It's a fine time
It's a fine time
Say just to run a name
'Cause you look the same

As the dude with the rebel in his veins
But while you're checking me
You've got them crooked politicians

Eating up the treasury
And taking our cash
To spend on the prisons
While the youth they fast
Now I'm waiting on the day
When we can all bring
Like Martin Luther King
This is why I sing

I want some contact contact
I want some contact contact
I want some contact contact
Contact contact
Only because my life depends on it

It all began with this lady
Who wanted a photograph
And a woman who wanted some change
So she could get some bread
She had a scarf on her head
She didn't want to rouse her pigeon friends
And it wasn't too long before her audience danced
The lady said "rise"
She said "rise"

[Chorus: x2]
When the lady came
Her audience sang
The hands of the saint are feeling us today
Oh yeah

Say brother if you wait
For the bath in the spring
We could shine
Yeah we could shine
Say sister if you wait for the bath in the spring
Yeah, we can shine
We can shine
Yeah we can shine

[Chorus]

Have been wantin' you for so long
I have been wantin' you for so long (so long)
I been down I been down a different road
I been out I have been out of control

But girl when you touch me that yea
I get my senses back yea
But when you touch me that yea (that yea)
I get me sense back yea

So now I'm feelin' right
'cause nothing feels like when you're holdin' on
Said I feel alright
'cause nothing feels like when you're hodin' on
I feelin' alright
'cause nothing feels like when you're holdin' on
When you're holdin' on

I wanna treat you like you wanna be treated yea
I wanna see you as you wanna be seen yea
I been down I been down a different road
I been out I have been out of control

But girl when you touch me that yea
I get my senses back yea (back yea)
But when you touch me that yea (that yea)
I get me sense back yea

So now I'm feelin' right
'cause nothing feels like when you're holdin' on
Said I feel alright
'cause nothing feels like when you're holdin' when you're holdin'
I feelin' alright
'cause nothing feels like when you're holdin on
When you're holdin' on

Let yourself go girl
Let yourself go
Let let yourself go
Let yourself go
Let yourself go
Let yourself go
Let yourself go

Where you been hidin'?
I'm believing
You give me life
Life my dear
You give me strength to beat the odds
And overcome my fears
You make me feel like I belong under the sun
You never grow old
Because you're forever young

[Chorus: x2]
If there's love
I just want to have somethin' to do with it
I just want to feel yours

When I'm alone you make me feel at home
If I give enough of you
To a higher place we'll go
You make me feel like I belong under the sun
You'll never grow old
Because you're forever young
And you know that you got my tomorrow baby
Today and yesterday
Believe that you've got my tomorrow baby
I'll hold you close as far as I can see

[Chorus]

Hey ya hey hey hey ya hey hey'..

How can I get you to forget for awhile
She's at my door won't leave me alone
And she says that she'll make my pain go bye bye
But I know about Mandy cause Mandy you never forget
If she was a blonde I'd tell her go home
But Mandy's a brunette
And she got noting left to wear
She'll get your heart forget your heart she'll get your heart again
And she got nothing left to wear
She'll get your heart forget your heart she'll get your heart again yeah my friend
Hey ya hey hey hey ya hey hey'..
She said everything you've earned yeah you've rolled
I'll double it up if you give me a try
She's at my door won't leave me alone
And she said that she'll make my pain fly by
Twine the slot machine of the century part Vietnamese and Hinduese
She'll set you free like an indica tree
In the back of a black Cadillac limousine
Well she's got nothing left to wear

There's this lady around my way
Who sees me like every other day
Who swears and screams a name
She says "Randy where you been?
I remember you were my best friend
Me and you was in it till the end
You was like a son to me back then
You were the son that I never had
I've been huntin' you down man
I'll let you know about my foolproof plan
We can get a crew like we once had
And run from town to town
We'll never ever be found
Say Randy how's that sound?
When I was down
You were always around, I'm so glad
That I finally found you"

<i>[chorus:]</i>
Mistaken me
It seems like you've mistaken me
See you've mistaken me
It seems like you've mistaken me, taken me

Say lady if I seem a way
If my enthusiasm ain't the same
It's just that Randy ain't my name
But I tell you this most every day
There's nothing I can say
To change the way
You're thinking about me
Try but you refuse to hear
Even when I'm walking with my lady
You say "How you doing baby
I like your new girlfriend
You've always attracted them princesses"
I wish I could pretend
I pray you find your friend
And all she said in the end
Is "Randy where you been?"

<i>[chorus]</i>
<i>[repeat verse 1]</i>
<i>[chorus]</i>

Say Judas came up to D.C.
He'd been down in Georgia for a while
He drove a 944
He bought with the soul
Of a blonde-headed kid
With a left-handed guitar
Now he's lookin' for me
Citizen see-O-P-E
Sign the dotted line please
For the fake 50's
Now Judas answer me
"Since I was the age to speak
Haven't you been listening?"
Salvation

[Chorus]
Salvation
Salvation
Salvation
I'm calling
Salvation

Well he came to town
Found the woman that I love
And he fucked her down
She told him where I live
Off of 9th in the alleyway
Where they say
They got the coke and the dope
Until you end up broken
"You should have let the smack get you" he said
"But now you've got to deal with me instead
I'm downstairs on the Motorola
You know I've got 3 golden bullets
And I'm shooting for your soul"
Salvation

[Chorus]

Well I came down with my Martin blazin'
My voice
It was cutting him up
Now he's aiming
His first shot grazed my eye
I lost half of my sight
And my firstborn's life
The second shot grazed off my guitar moon
And it made my guitar kinda play out of tune
But I just kept playing
Like I had nothing to lose
He turned the third on himself
'Cause the bastard knew
Salvation I'm calling
Salvation

[Chorus]

Put the gun down
Put the gun down
Put the gun down
Put the gun down

Put the gun down
Put the gun down
Put the gun down
Put the gun down

This feeling
Don't happen
By yourself
Alone
Is no
Way to live
Breathing
It don't happen
By yourself
Alone
Is no
Way to live
We could love
We can love
One another
We could love
We can love
One another
We could love

You know it isn't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There are no words to describe it
In french or english
Cause diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you


That these feelings won't go away
They've been knockin me sideways
They've been knockin me out litely
Whenever you come around me
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away
