1. Alive & Kickin'
(S. Hayman/M. Hough)

I've been mistreated
I've been a fool,
Now I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm razor-sharp, I'm cold as ice
I'm gonna take what I need
Marchin' in the street
Tell everybody:
I'm Alive (And Kickin')
You ain't nothin' but a memory !
I'll survive (Alive And Kickin')
Just you wait and see, oh baby...
(Alive And Kickin')
Bless me Father
For I have sinned
And I can't take it anymore
I've paid the price
Now I'm gonna fight to win
And I'm gonna kick down the door !
I'm gonna take what I need
Marchin' in the street
Tell everybody:
I'm Alive (Alive And Kickin')
You ain't nothin' but a memory !
I'll survive (Alive And Kickin')
Just you wait and see...
You can run but you can't hide
Got to keep on trying
If you feel you're satisfied
Say a prayer for the dying...
I'm Alive (Alive And Kickin')
You ain't nothin' but a memory !
I'll survive (Alive And Kickin')
Just you wait and see...

2. Rainin' In My Heart
(S. Hayman/S. McCrummen)

Shoulda known better with a woman like you
Shoulda known better to let you go
You played with my emotions
Got me tied up in love
If love is what I'm feelin'
Then it sure ain't enough...
Time after time I waited for you.
With only the night to see me through
Woman, you're always on my mind.
But it's still Rainin' In My Heart...
For the first time in my life I'm losin' control
My world is where you are
Wherever you go
Yor're all I ever wanted
Now it just tears me apart... baby...
I spend my time waiting for
A touch of your hand, a phone call
How can love be so blind ? yeah...
Here I am, here I stand, wait for another day
No more tears, no more lies, no more sad good-bys
Love is like the wind, so open up and let it in
It was written in the sand
(But we let it slip right through our hands)...
But it's still Rainin' In My Heart, baby
It's still Rainin' In My Heart, oh yeah
Rainin', Rainin', Rainin' In My Heart
I loved you, woman !
It's still Rainin' In My Heart, oh yeah
Oh, It's Rainin' In My Heart
I loved you, woman !
My heart, just take it 'fore you go !
It's bleedin' ! it's cryin' !
It's Rainin' In My Heart
Oh, it's still Rainin' In My Heart...

3. Take These Wings
(S. Hayman/D. Johnson)

Jackie was a young boy
Never meant to hurt no one
But he let it slip right through his hands
And Jenny was a young girl
So beautiful and so headstrong
But she listened too much to her friends...
In the night when she'd be cryin'
He's all alone, he feels like dyin'
Are they gonna make it through ?
Girl, it's all up to you
Nothin' that he wouldn't do
Just to get close to you...
Take These Wings and fly
Sail across the sky
Till the night is over
Take These Wings and fly
Sail across the sky
Till the night is gone...
Sometimes she wonders
Why do people love so much ?
Well, I've got news for you
'Cause even when times were tough
And even when it hurt too much
He always turned to to you...
In the night when she'd be cryin'
He's all alone, he feels like dying
Are they gonna make it through ?
Girl, it's all up to you
Nothin' that he wouldn't do
Just to get close to you...
Take These Wings and fly
Sail across the sky
Till the night is over, yeah
Take These Wings and fly
Sail across the sky
Till the night is gone

4. Sacred Ground
(S. Hayman/M. Hough)

I believe that what you say is what you do
And I believe that to be a man
Takes more than talk from you)
And I believe in The Lord above
And that He's gonna wash my sins away
And I believe that the young are dying
For the color of their skins...
It's what I feel, It's all I see
This ain't no Sacred Ground
Sacred Ground, oh yeah...
People all over live their life on solid ground
Some build it up, watch it grow
And then try to tear it down
Don't care who they hurt
Or how much it costs
They never know just what they've got
Until it's lost...
It's what I feel, It's all I see
This ain't no Sacred Ground
And the tears come fallin' down
And the walls come tumblin' down
This ain't no Sacred Ground...
Just like rivers flow to the sea
The winds of hope, it carries me
Just like the mountains touch the sky
We raise our voices and wonder why...
It's what I feel, It's all I see
This ain't no Sacred Ground
And the tears come fallin' down
And the walls come tumblin' down
This ain't no Sacred Ground
Sacred Ground
And the tears come crashing down
And the walls come tumblin' down
This ain't no Sacred Ground, yeah

5. Blame It On Love
(S. Hayman/M. Hough)

I'm feelin' cold and lonely
Guess there's nothin' left to say,
But thinkin' 'bout your lovin' baby
Ooh, takes my breath away
I never meant to hurt you
Or cause you any pain)
So why you keep on pushin' baby ?
It's drivin' me insane...
Blame It On Love
I guess I Blame It On Love... love...
Sometimes I feel it in my bones
Ooh, when the cold wind blows
That icy chill runs down my spine
Like a touch I've never known
You're everything I wanted
Woman, your everything I need
But your kind of lovin' baby
Makes my poor heart bleed...
Blame It On Love
I guess I Blame It On Love
If you still feel the pain
Tell me, honey, who you gonna blame ?
Love... love
If you still feel the pain
Oh, who you gonna blame ?
Love... love
Ain't gonna cry no more
When love kicks down my door
(Blame It On Love... love)
(Blame It On...)
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby please
I'm down on my knees...
(Love, Blame It On...)

6. Ride Like The Wind
(S. Hayman/D. Johnson)

Hey, mister preacher
Mister preacher man
Tell me how does it feel
To be a God-fearing man ?
It's been a long, cold winter
For this wanted man...
Raised hell in Texas
Rode across the Kansas plains
I even went to California
Ain't never goin' back again !
Oh, Lord, forgive me
Forgive me for what I done... I swear
Hey, mister preacher man
Forgive your wayward son
And he said:
Ride Like The Wind, cowboy
Ride it all night long
Ride Like The Wind, cowboy
Your fame might last
But it won't last long
Ride Like The Wind...
Oh yeah, come on boys...
Ain't got nobody
Nobody waits for me
I'm gonna take it to my grave
This lonely life I lead...
Ride Like The Wind, cowboy
Ride it all night long
Ride Like The Wind, cowboy
Your fame might last
But it won't last long
Ride Like The Wind...

7. What She Needed Most
(J.Ray/M. Hough)

She was just a young girl
Fresh out of high school
Couldn't wait to get away
Tired of livin' by the rules
She packed her bags and left home
Didn't tell her folks good-by
Hitched a ride on the highway
All she had she left behind...
What She Needed Most
She was on her way to find
What She Needed Most
Just a matter of time
Till she finds What She Needed Most...
Livin' in the city, just livin' in fear
Afraid she'll never find
What she's lookin' for here
Every day she wonders
Why every night she cries
The tears from the years are burning
In her eyes, hey, hey...
What She Needed Most
She found it hard to find
What She Needed Most
Wasn't what she had in mind
When she left home...
Now she's all alone, on her own
All her hopes and dreams are gone
Lookin' for a way just to get back home, yeah...
She gathers up her courage
Picks up the telephone
Says, "mom, I love you and want to come home
The love I've been missin'
Is the love I've been lookin' for
It's the love that you gave me
Now I'm comin' home for more...

8. Lay Your Guns Down
(S. Hayman/M. Hough)

In the heat of the night
Or in the morning light
They're gonna shoot you down
You can run but you can't hide
No one gets out alive
It's a killing ground,
You know you're runnin' out of time
Yeah, your life is on the line
Feel it slip away...
I ain't lookin' for a fight
(Lay Your Guns Down)
In the middle of the night
(Lay Your Guns Down)
I don't care who's wrong or right
(Lay Your Guns Down...)
A double dealer with snake eyes
His promises and lies
"Ain't gonna hurt no one..."
Say a prayer, you might find
Life is so unkind
When the killing's done
You know you're runnin' out of time
Yeah, your life is on the line
Feel it slip away...
I ain't lookin' for a fight
(Lay Your Guns Down)
In the middle of the night
(Lay Your Guns Down)
Well I don't care who's wrong or right
(Lay Your Guns Down)
Lay Your Guns Down... whoa, yeah...
In the middle of the night
I ain't lookin' for a fight
I don't care who's wrong or right...
Whoa, yeah...

9. Say A Prayer
(S. Hayman/M. Hough)

Whiskey and water take away my blues
Made my woman put on her walkin' shoes
It's gonna take a miracle to save my soul
I'm staring at Heaven
'Cause there's no place left to go
Say A Prayer for me...
(repeat first verse)
Soul sister, rescue me !
I need a angel now to set me free
(Say A Prayer for me)
I'm on the road to ruin
(Say A Prayer for me)
I'm on the road to ruin... yeah...
Been runnin' on empty
But there's light up ahead
Shame there ain't no lovin'
Left in this bed
Oh, I can hear thunder
Can't see no rain
The only thing coming
Is heartache and pain
Soul sister, rescue me !
I need a angel now to set me free...
(Say A Prayer for me)
I'm on the road to ruin...
(repeat)
Yeah, I'm on my knees ya'll
(Say A Prayer for me)
If you can help me
Raise your hands up high...
(Say A Prayer...)
Soul sister, rescue me !
I need an angel now to set me free...

10. Waitin' For You
(S. Hayman/M. Hough)

Well, I'm sittin' in the shade
Watchin' the sun go down
I've been up all night
And my head's still spinnin' around
Ooh, she's got lips like fire
Eyes as blue as the sea
I've got a fist full of dreams
And a heart full of misery...
She's got me reelin'
My heart's doin' time
Face like an angel
With a one-track mind
Came like a bolt of lightnin'
Right down and hit me...
I feel love
(I'm still Waitin' For You)
I need love
(I'm still Waitin' For You)
I feel you
I'm still Waitin' For You
All night long...
Baby, baby, baby
Why you treat me so mean ?
Just let your lovin' pour all over me
No matter what you say or do
I must confess
Gonna drive me to an early grave
In need of rest...
You've got me reelin'
My heart's doin' time
Face like an angel
With a one-track mind
Came like a bolt of lightnin'
Right down and hit me...
(chorus out)
