Song To See You Through


Sometimes I can't see past a day
+
I know I'm growin' tired and I feel it, yeah
+
And the song that I sing when the notes begin to ring
+
It's hard for my head to get into the melody, yeah
+
Day to day, I tell you
+
Day by day
+
I see faces all around me
+
When they start to smile
+
I just stop for a while
+
And I say baby let me love you
+

A small town store with an old wooden floor

+
The old man inside sellin' dry goods
+
Has a smile on his face
+
Don't you know that's hard to replace
+
I bet he's gonna live to be a hundred, yeah
+

Day to day, I tell you

+
Day by day
+
I see faces all around me
+
When they start to smile
+
I just stop for a while
+
And I say baby let me love you
+

Summer is hot and the winter is cold

+
People all doin' just what they're told
+
It's too bad, it's too sad
+
Thinkin' for yourself is a hard thing to do
+
Well, don't you know they're depending on you
+
To see them through, yeah
+
To see them through
+
It's the only thing you can do
+
You know you got to see them through
+

Shinin' my light like a candle so bright

+
Show me the way to my future, yeah
+
With your hand on my face
+
Take me far from this place
+
Honey, I'll be the key to your heavenly door
+
Hear me, baby, calling to you now
+
Don't you know now baby, well, they're countin' on you
+

See me, baby, reachin' for you

+
For you, reachin' out for you, baby
+
Don't you see me reachin' out for you
+
Hear me, baby, hear me callin' to you
+
Don't you know, baby, that I'm countin' on you
+
To see me through

Pursuit on 53rd St.


On a cross town bus in the city
+
I spied a lady all dressed in black
+
High heeled shoes and her dress cut loose
+
Her front was saggin' out on the rack
+
I believe, I believe
+
That the lady's gonna bring me luck
+
I believe, I believe
+
That the lady's gonna bring me luck
+
Driver, won't you stop this crazy machine
+
And let my feet out and touch the ground
+
Got to lay me a line on the lady
+
Before she walks down the street too far
+
I believe, I believe
+
That the lady's gonna bring me luck
+
I believe, I believe
+
That the lady's gonna bring me luck
+
That's right
+
Yes she has, yes she has
+
Watch me waking
+
I believe, I believe
+
That the lady's gonna bring me luck
+
I believe, I believe
+
That the lady's gonna bring me luck
+
I know she bring some luck

Eyes Of Silver


Eyes of silver hungry and aware
+
Eyes of silver, your mystic love I share
+
'Cause I'm hungry baby
+
For the love you give away
+
Kick out all that stupid pride
+
That's standin' in my way
+
Inside my loving eyes are open wide
+
Eyes of silver, on which I shall rely
+
Diamonds are forever, and gold can make you lie
+
But your eyes of silver shine on, shine on
+
Blades of steel have helped a man to conquer all
+
Rubies by the hundreds fill the Taj Mahal
+
Eyes of silver, you tell me what I need
+
To bring this cold and lonely man
+
Down to his bended knees
+
Inside my lovin' arms are open wide
+
For you eyes of silver
+
On which I shall rely
+
Diamonds and gold make you lie, lie, lie
+
But your eyes of silver, they shine on, shine on
+
Eyes of silver, baby, shine on, shine on
+
Baby, shining, yeah yeah, yeah, baby shining

Road Angel


I was ridin' down that highway
+
Silver Harley by my side
+
When I thought I saw my lady
+
She was headed for the Berkely hill
+
Pistol on her hip in case she needed a thrill
+
I don't believe it, don't believe a word
+
I don't believe it, don't believe a word
+
I said, come on with me, baby
+
Don't you want to ride with me
+
She put her hand into her bag, now
+
Pulled out a half pint of red eye sauce
+
Sneakin' 'round the corner, drinkin' whiskey from a jar
+
I don't believe it, don't believe a word
+
I don't believe it, don't believe a word

Tell Me What You Want (And I'll Give You What You Need)


Easy, time won't keep you waitin' any longer
+
Than you waited in the past
+
Cool and breezy, winds are blowin' sweetly
+
On the edges of the garden at last
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Look into my eyes and you'll see me standin' there
+
Feelin' happiness inside you now
+
You always knew it was a state of mind
+
You're just reelin', takin' in the thoughts around you
+
Every one's got secrets you must find
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+

Easy, time won't keep you waitin' any longer
+
Than you waited in the past
+
Cool and breezy, winds are blowin' sweetly
+
On the edges of the garden at last
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Look into my eyes and you'll see me standin' there
+
Feelin' happiness inside you now
+
You always knew it was a state of mind
+
You're just reelin', takin' in the thoughts around you
+
Every one's got secrets you must find
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need
+
Look into my eyes and you'll see me standin' there
+
Oo, it's so easy
+
Cool and breezy
+
What a feelin'
+
It's got me reelin'
+
Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need

Tell me what you want and i'll give you what you need

Down In The Track


I been workin' the whole day long
+
On these railroad ties singin' a sad, sad song
+
Down the track is a bad way to live
+
The boss man's whip is all he's got to give
+
And late at night in the twilight of the South
+
They put you in a cell and let the bulldogs out
+
The old cat down the way
+
Well he's singin' out the blues
+
'Cause he's got no one back home
+
Oh, somebody sighed
+
Next day comes they send you back out on the track
+
All that sweat be drippin' down off your back
+
Everybody's singin' a workin' man's song
+
Hopin' they don't have to feel the whip on their bone
+
The water boy slowly works his way around
+
A bucket full of swamp water weighin' him down
+
Old Squezer Walker just fell out on the ground
+
And they're draggin' his body away
+
Oh, my, my, my
+

Well, there's talk around camp

+
That there's gonna be a fight
+
Old Razor Face and Willie Black
+
The meanest dudes in sight
+
One's got a razor and the other's got a knife
+
But only one's gonna walk out alive
+

Oh, baby, mama, get me out of here

+
Can't stand no more
+
This place is gonna be the death of me
+
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
+
There's only one way that it's every gonna be
+
That's when the angels come and take me away
+
Well, now
+

Oh, baby, mama, get me out of here

+
Can't stand no more
+
This place is gonna be the death of me
+
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
+
There's only one way that it's every gonna be
+
That's when the angels come and take me away
+
Well, now
+

Another Park Another Sunday


I'm sittin' in my room,
+
I'm starin' out my window
+
And I wonder where you've gone
+
Thinking back on the happy hours just before the dawn
+
Outside the wind is blowin'
+
It seems to call your name again
+
Where have you gone
+
City streets and lonely highways
+
I travel down
+
My car is empty and the radio just seems to bring me down
+
I'm just tryin' to find me
+
A pretty smile that I can get into
+
It's true, I'm lost without you
+
Another lonely park, another Sunday
+
Why is it life turns out that way
+
Just when you think you got a good thing
+
It seems to slip away
+
It's warm outside, no clouds are in the sky
+
But I need a place to go and hide
+
I keep it to myself
+
I don't want nobody else
+
To see me cryin' all those tears in my eyes
+
Another park, another Sunday
+
Why is it life turns out that way
+
Just when you think you got a good thing
+
It seems to slip away
+
Another park, another Sunday
+
It's dark and empty thanks to you
+
I got to get myself together
+
But it's hard to do
+

Daughters Of The Sea


Autumn breeze blowin' to the east
+
Shift of breeze upon a sea of peace
+
Hear them call, can't you hear them sing
+
Hear them call, how their voices ring
+
Dizzy dancin', golden ladies
+
Misty eyes that cannot fool
+
Silver shoreline waves come crashin'
+
To the end of all of you
+
Like a spider weavin' silken nets
+
Fingers move, swaying silhouettes
+
Hear them call, can't you hear them sing
+
Hear them call, how their voices ring
+
Spinning, turning, moonlit madness
+
'Round the fire burnin' bright
+
I can see it risin' higher
+
Lightin' up the starry night
+

Hear them call, can't you hear them sing

+
Hear them call, how their voices ring
+
Hear them call, can't you hear them sing
+
Hear them call, how their voices ring
+
