Finding My Way

Yeah, oh yeah!

Ooh, said I, I'm comin' out to get you

Ooh, sit down, I'm comin' out to find you

Ooh, yeah

Ooh yeah

Findin' my way!

 

I've been gone so long

I've lost count of the years

Well, I sang some sad songs

Oh yes, and cried some bad tears

 

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, whoa

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, yeah

 

I'm runnin', finding my way back home

Oh yeah!

 

Yeah, oh, yeah!

Ooh, said I, I'm comin' back to look for you

Ooh, sit down, I'm goin' by the back door

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

Findin' my way!

 

You've done me no right

But you've done me some wrong

Left me lonely each night

While I sing my sad song

 

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, whoa

Look out! I'm comin', whoa, yeah

 

I'm runnin', findin' my way back home

 

I'm comin'

Ooh, babe, I said I'm runnin'

Whoa, babe, I said I'm comin' to get you, mama

Said I'm runnin'

 

Ooh, babe, I said I'm comin' for you, babe. I said I'm runnin'

Ooh, yes, babe, I said I'm comin' to get you, babe

I said I'm comin'

Ooh, yeah

 

I'm findin', I'm findin' my way back home

Well, I've had it for now, livin' on the road

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

 

Findin' my way!

 

 

 

Need Some Love

 

I'm runnin' here, I'm runnin' there

I'm lookin' for a girl

'Cause there's nothin' I need, there's nothin' I want more

In the whole wide world

 

Well, I need it quick and I need it now

Before I start to fade away

That's why I'm searchin', that's why I'm lookin'

Each and ev'ry day

 

[Chorus:]

Ooh, I need some love

I said I need some love

Ooh yes, I need some love

This feelin' I can't rise above

Ooh, yeah, yeah

 

Well, I been hustlin' here, I been hustlin' there

I been searchin' for about a week

And I started feelin' this strange sensation

My knees are startin' gettin' weak

 

Well, I need what keeps a young man alive

I'm sayin' I need it now

I'm gonna get the message across to you

Some way, some how

 

[Chorus]

 

 

 

Take A Friend

 

Well, I'm lookin' at you

And I'm wond'rin' what you're gonna do

Looks like you got no friends

No one to stick with you till the end

 

[Chorus:]

Take yourself a friend

Keep 'em till the end

Whether woman or man

It makes you feel so good...

So good

 

Yes, you think you're all right

But now you're lonely ev'ry night

Well, you need a friend

Someone on whom you can always depend

 

[Chorus]

 

Yes, you need some advice

Well, let me put it to you nice

I said you need a friend

Someone who'll stick with you to the end

 

[Chorus]

 

 

 

Here Again

 

I said I played this song so many times before

That the melody keeps repeating

Growing new ideas, flowing chords and notes

Like a mountain river bleeding

 

Well, I say as I look back at all the thoughts I've had

They reflect just what I'm learning

Yes, you know that the hardest part, yes, I say it is to stay on top

On top of a world forever churning

 

Well, you say you can laugh, but I can see that your eyes are glass

Well, do you see, can't you see, what I'm feeling?

Yes, I've seen your face before

Why, I've seen it everywhere

Showing up to me without a scent revealing

 

Well, I said will it ever change?

Will it stay the same?

I'd surely like to know before it's over

Well, I said I played some

I said it won't be long

Won't be long before I stop and play it over

 

You know I've, I've seen your face before

Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?

Oh, oh, I've, I've been in one place too long

Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?

 

 

 

What You're Doing

 

Well, I see you standin' there

With your finger in the air

Everything we do, you wanna leave it up to you

 

Who do you think you are?

You think you are a star?

Tryin' to run the town

Always tryin' to put us down

 

Well, you think that you're right

You think you're out of sight

Tell me something, mister

Why'd you have to make us so uptight?

 

Well, you say you've been tryin'

You know that you're lyin'

I think you need some groovin'

Who do you think you're foolin', now?

 

Well, you better start changin'

Your life needs rearrangin'

You better do some talkin'

Or you better do some walkin' now

 

Yeah, you think that you're right

You think you're out of sight

Tell me something, mister

Why'd you have to make us so uptight?

 

I know what you're doing

All that you been doin' wrong

I don't know what you're feelin'

Oh, but you been feelin' long

 

Well, you think that you're right

Tell me something, mister

Why'd you have to make us so uptight?

 

 

 

In The Mood

 

Hey, now, baby

Well, I like your smile

Won't you come and talk to me

For a little while?

 

Well, you're makin' me crazy

The way you roll them eyes

Won't you come and sit with me?

I'll tell you all my lies

 

[Chorus:]

Hey, baby, it's a quarter to eight

I feel I'm in the mood

Hey baby, the hour is late

I feel I've got to move

 

Well, hey, now, baby

Don't you talk so fast

I'm just tryin' to make these good times

I'm tryin' to make it last

 

Everything's getting hazy

Now honey, where'd you go?

I just want to find out, baby...

Where'd you learn what you know?

 

[Chorus]

 

Well, hey, now, baby

I said I like your style

You really got me, baby

Way down deep inside

 

Ooh, you drive me crazy

Baby, you're the one

I just want to rock and roll you woman

Until the night is gone

 

[Chorus]

 

 

 

Before and After

 

Love won't see me comin'

On a Sunday noon today

Still don't believe we're fadin'

But now the world should wait

 

And now you're finally listenin'

To what I have to say

Well, the time is right

And it is today

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Maybe we could talk about it

And try to get it straight

After all these years, baby

Maybe it's too late

 

But I really need to

Have you by my side

And that's the only feelin'

Baby, I can't hide

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Well you aren't listenin'

I ain't talkin'

We ain't gettin' nowhere

 

I keep tryin' to get through to you baby

All you do is stare

 

I don't wanna see that

I need you by my side

Well, I don't want to be your lover

Babe, I wanna be your man

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Well, now my story's over, baby

And I ain't gonna tell it twice

Well, you better start listenin'

Or get out of my life

 

Or you're gonna be left out

I said left out in the cold

Yeah, before you get my lovin'

Babe, you'll be too old

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Well, I'm talkin' to you baby

Well, I said yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

 

 

Working Man

 

I get up at seven, yeah

And I go to work at nine

I got no time for livin'

Yes, I'm workin' all the time

 

[Chorus:]

It seems to me

I could live my life

A lot better than I think I am

I guess that's why they call me

They call me the working man

 

They call me the working man

I guess that's what I am

 

I get home at five o'clock

And I take myself out a nice, cold beer

Always seem to be wonderin'

Why there's nothin' goin' down here

 

[Chorus]

 

Well, they call me the working man

I guess that's what I am
