Work with one another
Not against each other
Work with one another
Not against each other
I've come to the conclusion
There's only one solution
Work with one another
Not against each other
What’s the situation?
There's too much aggravation
So much disillusion
We want retribution
Work with one another
Not against each other
Work with one another
Not against each other
Work, work, work, work, work, work
Work with one another
Not against each other
Work with one another
Not against each other
People have the power
In their darkest hour
Work with one another
Not against each other
Children in the street
Are marching to the beat
They're gonna have to shout
And turn it inside out
The world is gonna know
What it's all about
What it's all about
What it's all about
Work with one another (Sister!)
Not against each other (Brother!)
Work with one another (Sister!)
Not against each other (Brother!)
Work with one another (Sister!)
Not against each other (Brother!)
Work with one another (Sister!)
Not against each other (Brother!)

There ain't no use to pretend
This world has come to an end
We're livin' a nightmare
And this world is condemned
I'll see you if this nightmare ever ends
Things are not what they seem
Wake me up from this bad dream
‘Cause we're livin' a nightmare
And this world is condemned
I'll see you if this nightmare ever ends
Nightmare, screamin’ and cryin’
Nightmare, there ain't no denyin’
Nightmare, like never before
Nightmare, I can't take anymore
It's getting darker everyday, no no
Please make this nightmare go away
‘Cause we're livin’ a nightmare
And this world is condemned
I'll see you if this nightmare ever ends
We're livin' a nightmare
We're livin' a nightmare
I'll see you if this nightmare ever ends
We're livin' a nightmare
We're livin' a nightmare
I'll see you if this nightmare ever ends

Rockin' My Boogie
03:51
|
|||
The time has come to sing a song about what's going on
I don't know what day it is but I know I’m alone
Livin' hand to mouth and shufflin' the beat
Keep your eyes open and an ear down to the street
‘Cause meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
I'm just rockin’ my boogie
Rockin’ my boogie everyday
The minutes seem like hours and the hours seem like days
But it don't make no difference ‘cause I’ll never change my ways
I don't care about the future and I ain’t hung up in the past
I’m livin' everyday like it’s gonna be my last
Meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
I'm just rockin’ my boogie
Rockin’ my boogie everyday
(Oh, rock your boogie, boy!)
(Go, go, go!)
Everybody’s screamin' and runnin' around
They say that the sky is falling and we've got to get down
Well listen to me people, don't you hang your head and cry
No matter what you do you ain't never satisfied
‘Cause meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
Meanwhile, I'm just rockin' my boogie
From New York to St. Louie
I'm rockin' my boogie everyday
Meanwhile
Meanwhile
I said meanwhile
Meanwhile

Been a Fool Once
03:17
|
|||
You know I've been through a war of roses
And I learned a thing or two
There ain't much to change some cold, cold hearts
‘Til your days are through
And I don't need to be forgiven
‘Cause I know love always comes with a price
When she broke my heart but she never broke my soul
Because I’ve been a fool once and it won't happen twice
You know I gave her pearls and diamonds
She just threw me rocks
When I lost my tired old shoes
She went and stole my socks
And she don't need to be forgiven
She better know love comes with a price
When she broke my heart but she never broke my soul
Because I’ve been a fool once and it won't happen twice
Gotta move on
Gotta get gone
Gotta move on
Because I’ve been a fool once and it won't happen twice
(Alright!)
And I don't need to be forgiven
‘Cause I know love always comes with a price
When she broke my heart but she never broke my soul
Because I’ve been a fool once
Been a fool once
I said I’ve been a fool once and it won't happen twice

Star
03:50
|

Miles away in the sky
You light the way every night
Someday I'll join you way up high
Then we'll be stars together, just you and I
‘Cause all you are is a star for me
All you are is a star for me
Saw your face on my TV screen
I read all about you in a magazine
And then I heard that song on my radio
And now it follows me everywhere I go
‘Cause all you are is a star for me
All you are is a star for me
I said all you are is a star for me
All you are is a star for me
Miles away in the sky
You light the way every night
Someday I'll join you in the bye and bye
Then we'll be stars together ‘til the end of time
‘Cause all you are is a star for me
All you are is a star for me
I said all you are is a star for me
All you are is a star for me
Shine on
Way up high in the sky
Like a diamond
‘Til the end of all time

You'll Die Too
03:02
|
|||
Feelin' mighty, coastin' on your name
One day you shall see the worth there is to fame
When, someday baby, you gonna die too
Someday baby, you gonna die too
The walls are crumbling, the truth is comin' down
How will it feel when you're a king without a crown
When, someday baby, you gonna die too
Someday baby, you gonna die
Someday baby, you gonna die
Someday baby, you gonna die too
Our land is burning, the coffers running low
Our homes are ravaged and there's nowhere we can go
They plot our murder, push our backs against the wall
We'll finally get together when nothing matters at all
When, someday baby, we gonna die too
Someday baby, we gonna die
Someday baby, we gonna die
Someday baby, we gonna die too

I'm gonna get me a bottle of Silver Satin
And ride that train from Brooklyn to Manhattan
Yeah, lord I said yeah
I ain't feelin’ no pain
Walking home in the rain
I'm gonna get me a bottle of Thunderbird
She sings the sweetest song that I've ever heard
I said yeah, lord I said yeah
No trouble on my mind
Lord you know I'm feelin' fine
Silver Satin
Thunderbird
Jack o’ Diamonds
What's the word?
Thunderbird
Silver Satin
Jack o’ Diamonds
What’s happening?
Silver Satin
Thunderbird
Jack o’ Diamonds
What's the word?
Thunderbird
Silver Satin
Jack o’ Diamonds
What is happening?
At the bottom of the bottle of Jack o’ Diamonds
I lost my head and woke up in Coney Island
Yeah, lord I said yeah
I ain't feelin’ no pain
Walking home in the rain
I ain't feelin’ no pain
Walking home in the rain
I ain't feelin’ no pain
Walking home in the rain
Goodnight

Two Dollar Holler
03:09
|

Gimme a dollar and I'll make you holler
Gimme two and I'll jump for you
Gimme three and I'll get down on my knees
And I'll say a prayer for you
What for? Let’s even the score
Five train northeast corridor
Six and seven
Seven rolls eleven
Eight, nine, ten, let's get up and do it again
Let’s do it again
Another day on Avenue A
There's someplace I'd rather B
I tried so hard but just can't C
To find the right melo-D
If I can get back on my feet
And get myself up off this street
No matter where I am
I’ll always do the best I can
I’ll do the best I can
But it’s in one hand and out the other, man
In one hand and out the other
In one hand and out the other
Can you spare a dime, my brother?
In one hand and out the other
What for? Let me tell you some more
Three, now don't you mess with me
What you gonna do when the clock strikes two?
And now, I'm looking' out for number one
Well it’s in one hand and out the other, man
It’s in one hand and out the other, man

Ding ding ding
Ding ding ding
Ding ding ding
Has anybody seen that ding-ding man
You know the ding-ding man
I think I heard that ding-ding man
There goes the ding-ding man
Well you better run as fast as you can
If you wanna catch up to the ding-ding man
There goes the ding-ding man
There goes the ding-ding man
Ring ring ring
Ring ring ring
Must be the ding-ding man
My heart begins to sing-sing man
When I hear that ding-ding man
Well he's the kinda man that the world ignores
But he's got the one thing they don't sell in stores
Call up the ding-ding man
Call up the ding-ding man
Ding ding ding
Ding ding ding
Ding ding ding
I need a little thing from the ding-ding man
Where is the ding-ding man
Liquor is quicker
Candy is dandy
When you're down and out he's always handy
Call up the ding-ding man
Call up the ding-ding man
Ding ding

Electro-Motive Blues

Won't somebody come and help me, please?
I've been possessed by electricity
Got nowhere to go but I got someplace to be
Electro-motive blues got a hold on me
(Alright! Hey!)
Keep on movin' and don't look back
Feel that fire burnin’ down the track
Keep on blown' smoke from that stack
Sparks a-flyin', ain’t no turnin' back, no turnin’ back
No, no, no, no, no, no
(Choo choo chugga chugga, choo choo chugga chugga, woo woo)
Bye bye, baby, bye bye, baby, bye bye
(Choo choo chugga chugga, choo choo chugga chugga, woo woo)
Well, I light up the town like a flash up in the sky
Then I roll and I ride and I'm off into the night
Got nowhere to go but I got someplace to be
Electro-motive blues got a hold on me
A hold on me
No, no, no, no, no, no
(Choo choo chugga chugga, choo choo chugga chugga, woo woo)
Bye bye, baby, bye bye, baby, bye bye
(Choo choo chugga chugga, choo choo chugga chugga, woo woo)
No, no, no, no, no, no

Bye bye, baby, bye bye, baby, bye bye
