Easy money, can't get it out of my mind, Easy money, ain't it hard to find! Cruisin' along on a downtown avenue, I'm lonely, but the night is young. I got money to burn, I had to work to earn, It'll soon be gone. I found the right club, struttin' in, paid the man a dollar, Eased myself into a place at the bar. I drank a double shot, put me in the slot, I'm feeling good so far. Easy money, can't get it out of my mind, Easy money, ain't it hard to find. {Rod - Solo - Dave - Solo - Rod - Dave - Rod - Dave} Lonely man needs a high rollin' woman, That's what I had for sure.

When I was stone blue, rock and roll sure helped me through. When I was stone blue, rock and roll sure helped me through. Laid off work and I can't be free, I need some rock 'n' roll therapy.

Don't Run Me Down(6:31) Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAP I had a woman, all's she did was run me down, She changed our love to jealousy, and my smile into a frown. Now I've been hurt so many times, but I guess I'll never learn. Now I'm standin' in confusion, I don't know which way to turn. 'Cause I still love that woman, please don't ask me why, We can make it if we try. She passed by in a limousine, and slowly waved her hand, A mink around her shoulders, and her arms around a man. Now I was so amazed I couldn't find a thing to say, Just stood awhile and tried to smile, but she looked the other way. Cruisin' through the city, she almost knocked me down, I jump back when I hear that sound. Don't run me down - Don't run me down - Don't run me down. My nerves are shakin' and my heart is breakin', don't run me down! Here stands a troubled man who's tired of bein' abused, I'm tired of walkin' by myself, bewildered and confused. I've got to leave you baby, but I just can't let you go, Now I'm inclined to change my mind when tears begin to flow. Run me down, turn me around, I say no but you do it anyway. You tell me lies, but I've got wise. What can I say? What can I say? Don't run me down - Don't run me down - Don't run me down, My body's shakin and my heart is achin', don't run me down! {Rod - Solo} Don't run me down - Don't run me down - Don't run me down My body's shakin and my heart is achin', don't run me down!

Thumbin' a ride to Geneva, standin' in the falling rain, Gettin' dirty looks I wish I coulda' took a train. Your friends said, "Why did you leave her?" - had to make it on my own, Now I'm standing on the highway, tryin' to find my way alone. Well I got my home in my hand, travelin' across the land, Tryin' to earn a living, givin' everything I can.

But someone else was close beside you, Now I wonder will I see you again? {Rod - Solo - verse, verse, bridge} Sarah Lee, can't you see, Why I'm cryin' like a child? You had your fun, but what you done, Made me mad and drove me wild. But Sarah Lee, can't you see, See those lines upon my face? I'm so confused and I've been abused, I can hardly stand the pace.
Highway (Killing Me)(3:47) Price / Peverett - Knee Trembler Music - ASCAP Ridin' on the freeway, where the lights are dim, My chances of relaxin' are gettin' mighty slim, I close my eyes and wonder how long it's gonna be, I know I've got to travel, but the highway's killing me, Looking out the window, not a thing to see, Only my reflection staring back at me, I close my eyes and wonder how long it's gonna be, I know I've got to travel, but the highway's killing me, {Rod - Solo - verse} I get so weary, how can I rest, The road is rocky and I feel so depressed, I close my eyes and wonder how long it's gonna be, I know I've got to travel, but the highway's killing me, Mmmm...mmmm....mmmm....mmmm {Rod - Solo to fade}
Maybelline(3:32) Berry / Fratto / Freed - Arc Music Corp. - BMI Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true? Oh, Maybelline, why can't you be true? You done started back doing the things you used to do, As I was motivatin' over the hill, I saw Maybelline in a Coup de Ville, Cadillac rollin' on the open road, nothin' outrun my V8 Ford, Cadillac doin' 'bout 95, bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side, Maybelline, why can't you be true? Whoa Maybelline, why can't you be true? You done started back doing the things you used to do, Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford, Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more, Done got cloudy and it started to rain, I tooted my horn til I passed the lane, Rain water blowin' all under my hood, I knew that I was doin' my motor good, Maybelline, why can't you be true? Whoa Maybelline, why can't you be true? You done started back doin' the things you used to do, {Dave - Solo - 3 verses} The motor cooled down, the heat went down, And that's when I heard the highway sound, Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead, 110 a half a mile ahead, Cadillac lookin like it's sittin' in steel, and I called Maybelline at the top of the hill, Maybelline, why can't you be true? Whoa Maybelline, why can't you be true? You done start back doing the things you used to do. {Dave - Solo to fade}
A Hole To Hide In(4:06) Earl / Price / Peverett - Knee Trembler Music - ASCAP Woke up this mornin' and I crawled out of bed, I made a cup of coffee just to clear my head. I felt all right 'til I looked on the floor, There was a pile of bills stacked against the door. I went in the kitchen and drank another cup, I sat down at the table and added it up. When I discovered how much I owe, I said, ooh, ooh, it's time to go. Mailman stay away from my door, Got too many bills I don't need no more, I don't know what I'm gonna do, but while I'm deciding, To save my soul, I'm going to find me a hole to hide in, {Instrumental} Everyday it's the same old thing, I know in advance what the man's gonna bring. Registered letters from all over town, Those final reminders are gettin' me down. I once had money, but it's all been spent, And now the landlord said he needs the rent. Telephone company cuttin' off my phone, Why don't they all just leave me alone? Mailman keep away from my door, Got too many bills I don't need no more. I don't know what I'm gonna do, but while I'm deciding, To save my soul, I'm going to find me a hole to hide in. Mailman, stay away from my door. Mailman stay away from my door. Mailman stay away from my door. Mailman yea, stay away from my door, whoo
Gotta Get To Know You(7:42) Malone / Williams - Dan Music Co. - BMI I've made up my mind, and here's my decision, I'd like to share with you, all of my secrets and my religion. I want you to see, oh how sweet I could be. Oh, I just got to get to know you, I just got to get to know you. You've got what it takes, whoa there's no denyin', I see in you a dream come true, Lord, you're life to the dying. I want you to see, oh how sweet I could be. Oh, I just got to get to know you, I just got to get to know you. In my life there's an empty slot, Oh now I believe you can fill that spot. But I just got to get to know you, I just got to get to know you, Blessed are the days I spent with you, Realizin' precious moments we never knew. Right now I'm just imagining this thing, But would you believe the joy it brings. I just got to get to know you, I just got to get to know you. I'm gonna get you and hold you tight, I want to hold you baby in the middle of the night, Because I need, I need you baby, I need, I need you by my side, I need, I need, I need you to keep me satisfied, Gonna hold you, I'm gonna to squeeze, I'm going to love you, I've made, I've made up my mind, I said I've made, I've made up my mind, You got it, you got what it takes, You got, you got what it takes, I see, I see in you a dream, I see, a dream come true. |
