I'M MOVING ON
I warned you baby from time to time
But you wouldn't listen
You don't pay me no mind
So I'm moving on
Now baby don't moan
I'm rolling on
You've broken your vow and it's all over now
So I'm moving on
That big eight wheeler rolling down the track
With your true lovin' daddy ain't coming back
Well I'm moving on I'm rolling on
You were flying too high for my little sky
So I'm moving on
Some day baby when you've had your play
You're gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
Keep moving on keep rolling on
I'm through with you too bad you're blue
But I'm moving on
Mr Engineer take your throttle in hand
And take me down to that southern land
Keep moving on keep rolling on
You can ease my mind if you get me there on time
I'm moving on
Mr fireman please won't you listen to me
Cause I've got a burning (pretty?) woman in Tennessee
Keep moving on keep rolling on
She's fine as could be and she's good for me
Keep moving on
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
I'm gonna move
ICARUS
I never wanted to fly high, I was too fond of walking
And when you said you’d touched the sky, thought it was your way of talking
Then you said you’d built some wings, found out how it could be done
But I was doubtful ‘bout everything, never thought you’d reach the sun
You were so clever with your hands, I’d watched you for hours
The glue and the rubber bands, feathers and lace and flowers
And the finished wings they glowed so bright, like some bird of glory
I began to envy you your flight, like some old hero story
You tried to get me to go with you, tried all ways to dare me
But I looked up at the skies so blue, and I thought the height would scare me
But I carried your wings for you, up the path to the cliff face
Kissed you goodbye and watched your eyes, already bright with sunlight
And it was grand at the start, to watch you soaring higher
But there was a pain deep in my heart, the wings seemed tipped with fire
Like a seagull or a lark, rising up forever
Like an ember or some spark, rising from earth to heaven
And I believe you touched the sun, I believed everything you told me
You’d done a thing no man has done, you touched the stars to please me
And then I saw the wide wings fail, and I saw the feathers falter
Watched you drop like a ball of gold, into the wide green water
For some are born to fly high, some are born to follow
And some are born to touch the sky, while some walk in the hollow
And as I watched your body fall, I knew that really you had won
For your grave was not the earth, but the reflection of the sun
IF I SAID YOU HAD A BEAUTIFUL BODY
If I said you had a beautiful body
Would you hold it against me
If I swore you were an angel
Would you treat me like a devil tonight
If I was dying of thirst
Would your flowing love come and quench me
If I said you had a beautiful body
Would you hold it against me
Now we could talk all night about the weather
Tell you about my friends out on the coast
I could ask a lot of crazy questions
Or ask you what I really wanted to know
If I said you had a beautiful body
Would you hold it against me
If I swore you were an angel
Would you treat me like a devil tonight
If I was dying of thirst
Would your flowing love come and quench me
If I said you had a beautiful body
Would you hold it against me
Now rain can fall so soft against the window
The sun can shine so bright up in the sky
But daddy always told me don’t make small talk
He said come on out and say what’s on your mind
If I said you had a beautiful body
Would you hold it against me
If I swore you were an angel
Would you treat me like a devil tonight
If I was dying of thirst
Would your flowing love come and quench me
If I said you had a beautiful body
Would you hold it against me
IF YOU LEAVE ME NOW
If you leave me now
You’ll take away the biggest part of me
Ooh no baby please don’t go
And if you leave me now
You’ll take away the very heart of me
Ooh no baby please don’t go
Ooh girl I just want you to stay
A love like ours is love that’s hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We’ve come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it this way
When tomorrow comes then we’ll both regret
The things we said today
A love like ours is love that’s hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We’ve come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it this way
When tomorrow comes then we’ll both regret
The things we said today
If you leave me now
You’ll take away the biggest part of me
Ooh no baby please don’t go
Ooh girl just got to have you by my side
Ooh no baby please don’t go
Ooh mama I just got to have your love inside me
IMAGINE
Imagine there’s no heaven it’s easy if you try
No hell below us above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today ah
Imagine there’s no countries it isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for and no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger a brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one
AN INNOCENT MAN
Some people stay far away from the door cause there's a chance of it opening up
They hear a voice in the hall outside and hope that it's just passers by
Some people live with the fear of the touch and the anger of how to play the fool
They won't listen to anyone so nobody tells them the lie
I know you're only protecting yourself I know you're thinking there's somebody else
Don't want to hurt you but I'm not above making up for the love
You've been denying you could ever feel
I'm not above doing anything to restore your faith if I can
Some people see through the eyes of the old only angry to look at the young
Only willing to hear you cry because I am an innocent man
I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am
Some people say they will never believe another promise they hear in the dark
Because they only remember too well they heard somebody tell them before
Some people sleep all alone every night instead of taking their lover to bed
Some people find that it's easier to hate than to wait any more
I know you don't wanna hear what I say I know you're gonna keep turning away
I've been there and if I can survive I can keep you alive
I'm not above going through it again not above being cool for a while
If you're true to me I'll be spared some people run from a possible fight
Some people figure they can never win although this is a fight I can lose
The accused is an innocent man
I am an innocent man oh yes I am an innocent man
You know you only hurt yourself by the spites but you should rather be a father tonight
That's your decision but I'm not below anybody I know if there's a chance of resurrecting the love
Not above going back to the start to find out where the heartache began
Some people hope for a miracle cure some people just accept the world as it is
Me I'm not willing to lay down and die because I am an innocent man
I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am an innocent man
IT’S A HEARTACHE
It’s a heartache, nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it’s too late
Hits you when you’re down
It’s a fool’s game, nothing but a fool’s game
Standing in the cold rain, feeling like a clown
It’s a heartache, nothing but a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down
It ain’t right with love to share
When you find he doesn’t care for you
It ain’t wise to need someone
As much as I depend on you
It’s a heartache, nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it’s too late
Hits you when you’re down
It’s a fool’s game, nothing but a fool’s game
It ain’t right with love to share
When you find he doesn’t care for you
It ain’t wise to need someone
As much as I depend on you
It’s a heartache, nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it’s too late
Hits you when you’re down
It’s a fool’s game, noting but a fool’s game
IT’S ALL OVER NOW
Baby used to stay yeah all night long
She made me weak you know she’s done me wrong
She held my eyes open and that’s no lie
Still the tables are turning now it’s her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
I used to wake in the morning get my breakfast in bed
But now I’ve got nothing to ease my aching head
And now she’s here and there with every single man in town
Still trying to take me for that same old crap
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
Still see her running round with every single man in town
Spend all of my money playing her fast game
It used to put me down it’s just pathetic how she cried
But the tables are turning now it’s her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
Because I used to love her, but it’s all over now
IT'S STILL ROCK AND ROLL TO ME
What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing
Can't you see that your tie's too wide
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars
Welcome back to the age of jive
Where have you been hiding out lately honey
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money
Everybody's talking 'bout the new sound funny
But it's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the car I'm driving
Can't you tell that it's out of style
Should I get a set of white wall tyres
Are you going to cruise the miracle mile
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue continental
Hot funk cool punk even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me
Oh it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
Cause it's always been the same old scene
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine
Aimed at your average teen
How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants
You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers
Next phase new wave dance craze anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing
Don't you know that they're out of touch
Well should I try to be a straight A's student
If you are then you think too much
Don't you know about the new fashion honey
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money
It's the next phase new wave dance craze anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Everybody's talking 'bout the new sound funny
But it's still rock and roll to me
IT’S TOO LATE
Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
There’s something wrong here there can be no denying
One of us is changing or maybe we just stopped trying
And it’s too late baby now it’s too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died
And I just can’t hide and I just can’t fake it
It used to be so easy living here with you
You were light and breezy and you knew just what to do
Now you look so unhappy and I feel like a fool
And it’s too late baby now it’s too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died
And I just can’t hide and I just can’t fake it
There’ll be good times ahead for me and you
But we just can’t stay together don’t you feel it too
Still I’m glad for what we had and how I once loved you
And it’s too late baby now it’s too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died
And I just can’t hide and I just can’t fake it
JACK AND ANNABEL AT THE SEASIDE
Annabell were waiting in the shadow of the pier
You could see the sea through her see through blouse
And smell the smell of beer
Flasher Jack came walking ‘till he reached where she were hid
Annie said “Eh Jack yer late” and straight away Jack did
But that’s all right in the silver night in the season of whoopee
I’m never uptight in Scarborough I’m as happy as can be
Annie said “What’s that your smoking? that’s a funny smell”
Flasher said “I’ll tell yer when I marry you Annabell”
“Just a little puff Jack, I just want to see
Ooh I’m not feeling myself” Jack said “No your feeling me”
But that’s all right in the silver night in the season of whoopee
I’m never uptight in Scarborough I’m as happy as can be
Annie said “Give over,” Flasher said “Give in
For I do like to see beside the B side bay the A side of your skin
Let me be a gay Don Juan behind the harbour wall
‘Cause it’s not true what people say, done one you’ve done them all”
That’s all right in the silver night in the season of whoopee
I’m never uptight in Scarborough I’m as happy as can be
Flasher said “I love yer” Annie said “Go on
But there’s something about you Jack I like, that I can’t put my finger on
I feel as if I’m falling, push me over the edge
‘Cause I can’t stop it once I feel the sin edge if the wedge”
But that’s all right in the silver night in the season of whoopee
I’m never uptight in Scarborough I’m as happy as can be
Constable McLagen came creeping up the sand
“I’m gonna do you for possession lad, I can see it in your hand
Anything you answer now will be taken down by me”
Annabel said “Underpants” and Flasher said “Feel free”
But that’s all right in the silver night in the season of whoopee
I’m never uptight in Scarborough I’m as happy as can be
But that’s all right in the silver night in the season of whoopee
I’m never uptight in Scarborough I’m as happy as can be

JACOB'S LADDER
I met a fan dancer in south side Birmingham
She was running from a fat man selling salvation in his hand
And now he's trying to save me when I'm doing all right the best that I can
Just another fallen angel trying to get through the night
Step by step one by one higher and higher
Step by step rung by rung I'm climbing Jacob's ladder
Coming over the airwaves a man say's I'm overdue
Sing along send some money join the chosen few
Hey mister I'm not in a hurry and I don't want to be like you
All I want from tomorrow is to get it better than today
Step by step one by one higher and higher
Step by step rung by rung I'm climbing Jacob's ladder
All I want from tomorrow is to get it better than today
Step by step one by one higher and higher
Step by step rung by rung I'm climbing Jacob's ladder
Climbing and climbing
Step by step one by one higher and higher
Step by step rung by rung I'm climbing Jacob's ladder
JAILHOUSE ROCK
Warden threw a party in the county jail
Prison man was there and they began to wail
The band was jumping and the joint began to swing
You should have heard them knocked out jailbirds sing
Let's rock everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block was dancing to the jailhouse rock
Spider Murphy playing the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowing on the slide trombone
Drummer Corchinelli going crash boom bang
The whole rhythm section was a purple gang
Let's rock everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block was dancing to the jailhouse rock
Number forty seven said to number three
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I'd sure be delighted with your company
Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me
Let's rock everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block was dancing to the jailhouse rock
Centre sack was sittin’ on a block of stone
Over in the corner weeping all alone
The warden said nobody don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair
Let's rock everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block was dancing to the jailhouse rock
Shifty Head was saying folks for heaven's sake
The warden's looking out a chance to make a break
His brother turned to Shifty and he said nix sticks
I want to stick around while I get my kicks
Let's rock everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block was dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Dancing to the jailhouse rock
Everybody in the whole cell block was dancing to the jailhouse rock
J.C.
Five foot nine, he’s divine
He turns water into wine
Has anybody seen J.C.
He’s the greatest he’s real cool
He’s just walked across my pool
Has anybody seen J.C.
If you should run into a five nine Jew
Head all covered in thorns
Turning water into wine
Well you bet your life that he’s divine
Mother Mary she’s the most
She got banged by the Holy Ghost
Has anybody seen J.C.
Five foot nine, he’s divine
He turns water into wine
Has anybody seen J.C.
He’s the greatest he’s real cool
He’s just walked across my pool
Has anybody seen J.C.

Head all covered in thorns
Turning water into wine
Well you bet your life that he’s divine
Mother Mary she’s the most

Has anybody seen J.C.
Not since Ascension
Has anybody seen J.C.
JEANS ON
When I wake up in the morning light
I put on my jeans and I feel all right
I pull my blue jeans on,
I pull my old blue jeans on
I pull my blue jeans on,
I pull my old blue jeans on
It's the weekend and I know that you're free
So pull on your jeans and come on out with me
I need to have you near me,
I need to feel you close to me
I need to have you near me,
I need to feel you close to me
You and me we'll go motorbike riding
In the sun and the wind and the rain
I got money in my pocket, the tiger in my tank
And I'm King of the Road again
I meet you in the usual place
I can’t wait to see such a pretty face
I need to have your near me,
I need to feel you close to me
I need to have your near me,
I need to feel you close to me
You and me we'll go motorbike riding
In the sun and the wind and the rain
I got money in my pocket, the tiger in my tank
And I'm King of the Road again
When I wake up in the morning light
I put on my jeans and I feel all right
I pull my blue jeans on,
I pull my old blue jeans on
I pull my blue jeans on,
I pull my old blue jeans on
JEZAMINE
What am I supposed to do with a girl like Jezamine
Though my eyes are open wide she’s made my life a dream
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
A butterfly so free and so wild and so full of living
When Jezamine stays though time goes fast this is my world at last
Beautiful days lost in her eyes but then the whole world dies
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
What can you say when a girl doesn’t want to know
She’s too far away And she makes my life a dream
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
A butterfly so free and so wild and so full of living
When Jezamine stays though time goes fast this is my world at last
Beautiful days lost in her eyes but then the whole world dies
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
What can you say when a girl doesn’t want to know
She’s too far away And she makes my life a dream
When Jezamine cries what am I supposed to do with a girl like Jezamine
Though my eyes are open wide she’s made my life a dream
La la la l a la la l a la la l a la la l a la la l a la
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
La la la l a
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
A butterfly so free and so wild and so full of living
When Jezamine stays though time goes fast this is my world at last
Beautiful days lost in her eyes but then the whole world dies
When Jezamine goes a part of me knows I’m not really living
JOCK STUART
Oh my name is Jock Stuart
I’m a canny goin’ man
But a rovin’ young fellow I’ve been
So be easy and free when you’re drinking with me
I’m a man you’ll not meet every day
Well I’ve ta’en out my gun
With my dogs I did go
Down by the banks of the Tay
So be easy and free when you’re drinking with me
I’m a man you’ll not meet every day
I’ve got acres of land
I’ve got men at command
But my money is easily spent
So be easy and free when you’re drinking with me
I’m a man you’ll not meet every day
So be easy and free when you’re drinking with me
I’m a man you’ll not meet every day
