Rock Me Up

She was a real go getter
Her hi heels clicking as she crossed the room
Never seen no better
Looked me up, looked me down, across the room
She’s high on rocking, so high on drinks
She can’t push me around if that’s what she thinks
Di di bi dam dam doobie, Dibi dam dam doo
She can’t push me around I’m telling you
./.Telling you, I’m telling you./.
Rock me up – all night long
Rock me down – on and on
Rock me up – all night long
Rock me down – on and on and on
I see bad things coming I see nasty weather
The midnight special’s gonna lead you right
Things are getting warmer, down on the corner
And Suzie Q’s coming up around the bend
She’s high on rocking, so high on drinks …

Quick and Dirty

I know it isn’t pretty, I know it doesn’t look good
I know it isn’t perfect, or strictly by the book
I know we’re cutting corners, I know we improvise
But we’re looking for solutions and we don’t analyze
It’s a Quick & Dirty solution –
Guaranteed to get the job done
A Quick & Dirty solution
It’s not like in the movies, it’s not like in a book
It’s not like mama told you, I’m not beating around the bush
It’s really kind of ugly, it’s really kind of crap
But beggars can’t be choosers, so you have to live with that
It’s a Quick & Dirty solution –
Guaranteed to get the job done
A Quick & Dirty solution
You can call it Tommy, you can call it Dick
You can call it Harry, or any ol’ name you pick
You can call it Johnny, you can call it Sam
You can give it any name, I really don’t give a damn
It’s a Quick & Dirty solution –
Guaranteed to get the job done
It’s a Quick & Dirty solution –
Guaranteed to get the job done
A Quick & Dirty solution -

Good Enough

Vers
So many thing I don’t remember, and a few I would like to forget
I have made so many mistakes and I’m sure I’ll make many more yet
Well, practice might make perfect, but that I’ll never be
Good enough is good enough is good enough for me
What you see is what you get
What you see is what you get
Worn out shoes and hair’s a mess
What you see is what you get
You can’t say I don’t make an effort, and that I never really tried
But no matter how hard I work, I’ll be the same ‘til the day I die
I swear I have the best of intentions, and I just want to do good
Things I say might come out the wrong way, and I get misunderstood
Sometimes I bring you flowers. But not as often as I should
Things I say might come out the wrong way
When I just want to be good

Jammin' Tonite

Do you wanna work at the post office
or are you gonna play rock
Sing Be-bop-A-Lula or be a slave
to the office clock
Do you wanna work as a bus driver
or are you gonna be a star
If you wanna come along for a real cool ride
we're down in the basement, jammin' tonight
Do you wanna work at a gas station
Or do you wanna play guitar
Blowing out steam with a killing machine
In every small town bar
Do you wanna be a tax man or
Do you wanna sing lead
If you wanna come along for a real cool ride
we're down in the basement, jammin' tonight
Jammin' tonight, jammin’ tonight - you can bring a friend
Jammin' tonight, jammin’ tonight - you can join the band
Jammin' tonight, jammin’ tonight
Jammin' tonight, jammin’ tonight
If you wanna come along for a real cool ride
we're down in the basement, jammin' tonight

Monday Sings The Blues
03:57
|

Every Friday’s like a prison break, with hound dogs on our trail
By Monday they’ve caught up with us, and we’re going back to jail
Every Friday is a grand escape, come Monday with that ball and chain
Lay my hammer down, I know it won’t be long
‘til Monday sings the blues
Endless highway stretch out ahead, but I can’t find the key
Muddy river, still too wide, no angels coming after me
Endless highway, river rolls, call my name, but I can’t go
Lay my hammer down, I know it won’t be long
‘til Monday sings the blues
One of these mornings I will spread my wings, and take to the sky
Take this hammer to the captain, say – you saw me flyin’
One of these mornings my time will come, one of these mornings my work is done
Lay my hammer down, you know I won’t be ‘round
when Monday sings the blues

Hypothetically Speaking
03:31
|

Hypothetically speaking, if I was that kind of guy
Who would pick a woman up in a singles bar
Just before closing time
And hypothetically speaking, if that woman was you
Would you ever consider, in this specific case
To come with me, back to my place
Hypothetically speaking, if I offered you wine
A glass of that shiraz or we could go for the merlot
Would that be fine
And hypothetically speaking, if it went to your head
It would be quite alright if you wanna spend the night
I’ll bring you breakfast in bed
You can say that I’m drunk, or that it is too late
But tomorrow I’ll be sober, and you will still be looking great
You can say that I should go, and that would be just fine
But there’s one thing you must know, I just can’t get you off my mind
Hypothetically speaking, if I’m wasting my time
I won't stand here and talk, I'll just take my drink and walk
But, if you change your mind
Hypothetically speaking, it would be a good start
if you come to the conclusion that the ultimate solution
is to follow your heart
