"Train Kept A Rollin'"
(Bradshaw/Mann/Kay)

Well, on a train, I met a dame,
She rather handsome, we kind looked the same
She was pretty, from New York City
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
With a "heave!", and a "ho!"
But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

Well, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

Well, on a train, I met a dame,
She rather handsome, we kind looked the same
She was pretty, from New York City
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
With a "heave!", and a "ho!"
But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

Well, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her

Well, we made a stop in Albequerque
She must'a thought I was a real cool jerk
Got off the train, and put her hands up
Lookin' so good I couldn't let her go
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
Train kept a-rollin' all night long
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
But I just couldn't tell her


"Kings And Queens"
(Tyler/Hamilton/Kramer/Whitford/Douglas)

Long ago, in days I'm told
were ruled by Lords of greed
Maidens fared with gold. They dared
to bare their wombs that bleed
Kings and queens and guillotines,
taking lives denied
Starch and parchment laid the laws
when bishops took the ride
only to deceive.

Oh I know I lived this life afore
Somehow know now truths I must be sure
Tossin, turnin' nightmares burnin'
dreams of swords in hand
Sailin' ships the Viking spits
the bold of father's land
only to deceive

Living times of knights and mares
raising swords for maidens fair
sneer at death
fear only loss of pride

Living other centuries
deja vu or what you please
follows true to all who do or die

Screams of no reply
they died
Screams of no reply
and died
Lordy lordy they died
Lordy lordy they died

Live and do or die
they died
Live and no reply
they died


"Sweet Emotion"
(Tyler/Hamilton)

Talk about things and nobody cares
Wearing other things that nobody wears
Ya callin' my name, but I gotta make it clear
Can't say where I'm gonna be in a year.

Some sweat hog mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go musta got up & went.
You got good news but you're a real good liar
Cause backstage lover set your pants on fire.

Sweet Emotion
Sweet Emotion

Pulled into town in a police car
Your daddy said I took you just a little too far.
Tellin' other things, but your girlfriend lied
Can't catch me cause the rabbit done died.

Standin' in front just shakin' your ass.
Take you back stage you can drink from my glass.
Talk about something you can sure understand
Cause a month on the road and i'll be eatin' from your hand.


"Dream On"
(Tyler)

every time that I look in the mirror
all these lines on my face getting clearer
the past is gone
it went by like dusk to dawn
isn't that the way
everybody's got their dues in life to pay

yeah, I know nobody knows
where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
you got to lose to know how to win

half my life's in books' written pages
live and learn from fools and from sages
you know it's true
all the things come back to you

sing with me, sing for the years
sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
sing with me, if it's just for today
maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

dream on, dream on, dream on,
dream yourself a dream come true
dream on, dream on, dream on,
and dream until your dream comes true

dream on
dream on
dream on
dream on
dream on
dream on
dream on


"Mama Kin"
(Tyler)

It ain't easy
livin' like a gypsy.
Tell ya, honey, how I feel.

I've been dreaming,
Floatin' down stream and
Losin' touch with all that is real.

Whole earth lover,
keepin' undercover
Never knowin' where ya been.

You've been fadin',
always out paradin.
Keep in touch with Mama Kin.

Well you've always got your tail on the wag.
Shootin' fire from your mouth just like a dragon.
You act like a perpertual drag.
You better check it out,
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon.

It ain't easy,
livin' like ya wanna,
And it's so hard to find piece of mind. Yes it is.

The way I see it,
you've got to say shit.
But don't forget to drop me a line.

Bald as an egg at eighteen.
And workin' for you dad is just a drag.
He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams.
You better check it out,
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon.

Keep in touch with Mama Kin.
Tell her where you've gone and been.
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea.

Keep in touch with Mama Kin.
Tell her where you've gone and been.
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea.

It ain't easy,
livin' like ya wanna,
And it's so hard to find piece of mind. Yes it is.

The way I see it,
you've got to say shit.
But don't forget to drop me a line.

Bald as an egg at eighteen.
And workin' for you dad is just a drag.
He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams.
You better check it out,
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon.

Keepin' touch with Mama Kin.
Tell her where you've gone and been.
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea.

Keepin' touch with Mama Kin.
Tell her where you've gone and been.
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea.


"Three Mile Smile"
(Tyler/Perry)

take a walk in the warm New England sun
ain't no time to look for clues
you get the point from Uncle Sam's loaded gun
who be the hand that light the fuse

take a look, take a look at my old billy goat
he used to raise all kinds of hell
he took a dose of radiation dope
back in the barn is where he fell, like hell

Lucy, chromosome
Lucy, superdome

what makes you think you patronizin' my old friends
after you ride in my parked car
what you do when your oil's mexican?
OPEC boys you went too far, too far

Lucy, papadum
Lucy, sing the song
ah, dig it up
ah, live it up
ah, dig it up
ah, live it up
look out


"Reefer Head Woman"
(Melrose, Bennett, Gillum)

I got a reefer headed woman
she fell right down from the sky
I got a reefer headed woman
she fell right down from the sky

well, I gots to drink me two fifths of whiskey
just to get half as high

when the good Lord made that woman
he sure went to town
ooh, when the good Lord made that woman
he sure went to town

well, when he was feelin' high
ooh, he sure shoulda been feelin' low


"Lord Of The Thighs"
(Tyler)

Down to who knows who, just to socialize.
I'm waiting for my girls, when you call my eyes.
You got no way to make a man honey,
You got to understand.
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.

Well, well, Lordie my God,
What do we got here?
She's flashin' 'cross the floor,

Make it perfectly clear.
You're the bait, and you're the hook,
Someone 'bound to take a look.
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.

You must of come here to find it,
You've got the look in your eyes.
Although you really don't mind it -
I am the Lord of your Thighs!

You must of come here to find it baby,
You've got the look in your eyes.
Although you really don't mind it -
I am the Lord of your Thighs!


"Major Barbara"
(Tyler)

Major....
major barbara sits in the feilds
and waits for her crops to grow
she sits in a chair, that she made outta wood
so many many years ago

major why won't they grow
you give 'em water and hope
major why won't they grow

she waits all day,
and hopes through the night
for a new day that might show
a bright yellow sun
that'll make the crops come
and let the old days go

major why won't they grow
you give 'em water and hope
major why won't they grow

major
look out in your field
tell me, what do you see shinin' through?

major
look after your fields
and your field will look after you
yes they do
yes they do
yea yea yea

major why won't they grow
you give 'em water and hope
major why won't they grow
