Blaze of Glory
I wake up in the morning

And I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind
When you're brought into this world

They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah, I'm a wanted man
I'm a colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can
I'm going out in a blaze of glory

Take me now but know the truth
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
You ask about my conscience

And I offer you my soul
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I've known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well, I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain
Shot down in a blaze of glory

'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun
(solo)
Each night I go to bed

I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor
And hope you'll understand
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Staring down a bullet
Let me make my final stand
Shot down in a blaze of glory

And I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
I'm a young gun
Always
This romeo is bleeding

But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
It's been raining since you left me

Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up
Now I can't sing a love song

Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me
And I will love you, baby - Always

And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always
Now your pictures that you left behind

Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near

When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time
Yeah, I will love you baby - Always

If you told me to cry for you

I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
Well, there ain't no luck

In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
And I will love you, baby - Always

I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always
Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen From Mars
Dressed up for a big date

Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now
A car crash with a suitcase and a painted face
She was one of a kind
She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella
And roller skates in bed
He rides the greyhound from his hometown

When he comes around 'cause they don't let him drive now
Mixed up as a milkshake
But make no mistake
They're shooting for the stars
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be oh, so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty Queen from Mars
Share a toothpick, trading lipstick

Watching traffic for days at the diner
Holding hands, making big plans
Playing Superman, he was wearing eyeliner
Another local legend and his longtime lucky charm
You and me
All dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
They're drunk on love as you can get

Getting high on lust and cigarettes
Living life with no regrets
At least they're gonna try to fly
(solo)
You and me
We're Sid and Nancy
Fred and Ginger
Clyde and Bonnie
Liz and Richard
Kurt and Courtney
Bacall and Bogie
Joltin' Joe and Ms. Monroe
Here's Captain Crash and the beauty Queen from Mars
If I Could Make A Living Out of Loving You
If there's something that needs fixing

I'm the man to see
Look me up, I'm listed
Just check under "B"
If you're ever on the spot
Well, I'm good with my hands
24-7 I'm your handyman
Odd jobs, hard jobs, anything under the sun

Big jobs, small jobs, baby
I'd be a rich man, it's true

If I could make a living out of lovin' you
These two hands know what to do
I could make a living out of lovin' you
Until the work is finished

Well, I don't get paid
I don't mind getting dirty
That's my middle name
I'm in the service business
So I understand
Call me 24-7, I'm your handyman
Odd jobs, hard jobs, anything under the sun

Big jobs, small jobs, baby

(solo)
Tough jobs, rough jobs, say where and when

I'll leave you my card, call when you need me again
Odd jobs, hard jobs, baby

I could make a living out of lovin' you
I'm a rich man
I Got the Girl
It feels like I'm walkin' on air

When we walk down our street
When the neighbors stop to watch us walk by
You can hear 'em talking (let them talk)
Sometimes I think that you're the one reason
The sun still shines (when it shines)
And when this wicked world starts bringing me down
I tell myself that I'm one lucky guy
I got the girl (with all the cards)

I got the girl (she's a work of art)
I got the girl (who's gonna break my heart)
She likes to wear her stripe with her plaids

And won't brush her hair (I swear)
She don't like wearing shoes in December
But I don't care what she wears

I got the girl (who's gonna break my heart)
If I was a holy man I'd get down on my knees

So the angels that watch over her would give a break to me
Holy Mother of Saint Bubble Gum and sister band-aid knees
Won't you please pray for the ones like me
(solo)
Now the truth is someday

Somebody is gonna take her from me
But the Queen of Hearts will always be
A five-year-old princess to me (to me)

I got the girl (who's gonna break your heart)
I got the girl (she's gonna leave her mark)

I got the girl (she's gonna break your heart)
I got the girl

I got the girl
I got the girl
she's gonna, she's gonna
I got the girl
I got the girl
I got the girl
It's My Life
This ain't a song for the broken hearted

No silent prayer for the faith departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground

For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
(It's my life)
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
'Cause it's my life
(solo)
Better stand tall when they're calling you out

Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
It's my life
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
(It's my life)
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
It's my life
(It's my life)
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
'Cause it's my life
Just Older
Hey, man, it's been a while

Do you remember me?
When I hit the streets I was 17
A little wild, a little green
I've been up and down and in between
After all these years, miles of memories
I'm still chasing dreams
But I ain't looking over my shoulder
I like the bed I'm sleeping in

It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's good to see your face

You ain't no worse for wear
Breathing that California air
When we took on the world
When we were young and brave
We got secrets that we'll take to the grave
And we're standing here shoulder to shoulder

I'm not old enough to sing the blues

But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose
(solo)
Well, I look in the mirror

I don't hate what I see
There's a few more lines staring back at me
The nights have grown a little colder
Hey man, I gotta run
Now you take care
If you see coach T. Tell him I cut my hair
I've kept my faith
I still believe i'm just...

It's not old -- just!
Mystery Train
There are days when she's a whisper

Nights when she's a scream
A reason to wake up in the morning
To close your eyes and dream
She'll curse you like a sailor
She'll wound you with her eyes
She always makes it better
But she won't apologize
You know everything about her but don't know her at all
She's a ride on a mystery train

To a place you've never been before
Better hold on tight to that mystery train
You're not in Kansas anymore
She's a ride
Mystery train
She cries because she's happy

She sings songs when she's mad
Like a stiff drink when you need it
She's good at being bad
And long before you knew her you knew she was the one

To a place you've never been before
Better hold on tight to that mystery train
You're not in Kansas anymore
She's a ride
Mystery train
(solo)
I know everything about her but don't know her at all

To a place I've never been before
I went all my life for mystery train
I'm not in Kansas anymore
She's a ride
On a mystery train
She's a ride
On a mystery train
Neurotica
Looking like a train wreck

Sipping on her long neck
This ain't no model-actress
She's attitude and accent (alright)
Angel flying solo

Must have gone and sold your halo
She's accidental innocence
And white trash elegance (alright)
She's all mixed up

Lays in bed 'til 3
All messed up
She's eccentricity
Neurotica
Lay your love all over me
Come on, baby, go a little crazy on me
Erotica
Every school boy's fantasy
Not your ordinary woman
But she's extraordinary to me
She got a daily new addiction

A walking contradiction
Chain smoking cigarettes
Talking to her silhouette (alright)
All mixed up
A little out of time
All messed up
But she don't really mind
Neurotica
Erotica
She's not your ordinary woman
Alright (no Jane or Gloria)

Alright (she's schizophoria)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And when I call her I got to call her
And when I call her I call her
(solo)
Neurotica
Erotica
She's not your ordinary woman
Neurotica
Neurotica
Neurotica
Neurotica
Next 100 Years

Time ain't nothing but time
It's a verse with no rhyme
Man, it all comes down to you
Change ain't nothing but change

Just the faces and the names
But you know we're gonna make it through
I'll believe
When you don't believe in anything
I'm gonna hold you 'til your hurt is gone

Be the shoulder that you're leaning on
I'll be standing here
For the next 100 years
If it all should end tonight
I'll know it was worth the fight
And we'll be standing here
I, when I think that I'm losing my mind

It all comes back to you
And you, you know that it's true

After all we've been through
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
Stand by me
And I would gladly give up everything

(solo)

(solo)
Time ain't nothing but time

It's a verse with no rhyme
Man, it all comes down to you
One Wild Night
It's a hot night, the natives are restless

We're sweating by the light of the moon
There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go
That could knock a witch off her broom
We slither on in and shed our skin

Make our way into the bump and the grind
So I'm passing by, she gives me the eye
So I stop to give her a light
Na, na, na-na, na, na-na-na na na na na, alright!
One wild night (blinded by the moonlight)

One wild night (24 hours of midnight)
One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone
And she left my heart with vertigo)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night
Havin' as much fun as you can in your clothes

Margarita had me feelin' alright
It just might be that I found religion
I've been on my knees for half of the night
I was rolling the bones with Jimmy 'no dice'
Gonna take him for a couple weeks' pay
Man, if you lose this roll I take your girlfriend home
So I stopped
But you're not gonna believe who comes walking out

One wild night (hey, c'est la vie)
One wild night (welcome to the party)
One wild night (life is for the living so
You gotta live it up, come on let's go)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night
(solo)
Na, na, na-na, na, na-na-na na

Na, na, na-na, na, na-na-na na
Na, na, ow!

One wild night (hey, c'est la vie)
One wild night (welcome to the party)
One wild night (life if for the living so
You gotta live it up, come on let's go)
One wild, one wild, one wild, one..
One wild night

One wild night
One wild night
One wild night blinded by the moonlight
One wild night 24 hours of midnight
One wild night stepped into the twilight zone for
One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night.
Save the World
I never went to college

I don't have a degree
Let's say I went to night school
I learned all I know on the streets
I wasn't born a rich man
I ain't got no pedigree
The sweat on this old collar
That's my Ph.D.
It comes down to this

I wouldn't exist
Without you it ain't worth the grind
I'd fight for one kiss
On a night like this
You make me feel I could fly, like
I could save the world

Since the night your love saved me
Maybe I can't save the world
But as long as you believe
Maybe I could save the world
I got to confess
Sometimes I'm a mess
And sometimes I step out of line
Like this old tattoo
I ain't shiny or new
With you by my side nothing matters
I can save the world

Maybe I can save the world
(solo)
They can say it's blind love

But it's a fool who don't believe
That I'd fly all the way to the moon
Just to walk you down your street

Our love is even stronger
Than god hoped it could be
Baby, all it takes is
Just a little faith in me
To feel like
I can save the world, yeah...
Say It Isn't So
I just can't believe

It was all a lie
No man in the moon
Just a big light in the sky
I hear Disneyland
Might lose Mickey Mouse
In some giant hostile corporate shake-up
Tell me it's a nightmare
Please wake me up
(Say it isn't so)
I found a book of matches

From someplace we've never been
How come you hang the phone up
The minute I walk in
Last night I had this dream
That I was losing you
I woke up in a cold sweat shaking
Rescue me my heart is breaking
Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)

Say it isn't so (I believe in you)
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)
Say everything's alright (couldn't be, not you)
Say it isn't so
Superman don't fly

He did it all with strings
Elvis Presley died
They deep fried the king
Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty
Dancing on the beach in a bad b-movie

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)
Get me through the night (we'll make it through)
Make everything alright (couldn't be, not you)
Say it isn't so..
(solo)

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)
Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)
Get me through the night (we'll make it through)
Make everything alright (couldn't be, not you)
Say it isn't so.
She's A Mystery
She won't let me buy her jewelry

She don't want things that she can keep
She wears wildflowers in her hair
Then throws them to the sea
She's the beginning and the end of me
But she's a mystery

My most beautiful regret
I will never understand her
She's a mystery
I still don't know what to call her

She says that words don't mean a thing
She changes her name every day
And lies all the time
I feel lucky to call her mine
But she's a mystery

She's a mystery
The only promise I can keep
Even in my dreams she ruins me
She's anything in the world

That you cannot explain
But when she throws me a smile
It's like fire in the rain
But she's a mystery

She's a mystery
The only promise I can keep
Even in my dreams she ruins me
But she's a mystery

There's no defense
It's innocence
But she won't let you see
'Cause she's a mystery
Thank You For Loving Me
It's hard for me to say the things

I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I
Thank you for loving me

For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
I never knew I had a dream

Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies

For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
You pick me up when I fall down

You ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea
And risk your own life to rescue me
(solo)
Lock the doors

We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
You parted my lips
When I couldn't fly

Oh, you gave me wings
You parted my lips
Two Story Town
I couldn't sleep
Took a walk down Second Avenue
Sick of dreaming dreams that never come true
One way street and I know where it's leading to
There's a "For Sale" sign on the front door of the city hall
The subway line got graffiti crawling off the wall
I could take a hit but I don't want to take the fall
That's just one side of the story

In this two story town
It's just the same old sights

And the same old sounds
I'm gonna take my car and drive out of this two story town
It's the same old ship, it's going around
I'm going down, down ,down, down, down
It's a two story town
There's a girl that I sleep with

She's got ecstasy eyes
He promised her roses and American pie
I called her and my demons
And I kissed them both goodbye
Seven days of Monday morning

In this two story town

I'm going down, down, down, down, down
In a two story town
One shot to make a move now

The ghosts are calling me out
(solo)
And me I'm just one story

In a two story town
But you're never going to find me in the lost and found

I'm going down, down, down, down, down

I want to take my horse
and ride him off this merry-go-round
I won't give in and I won't back down
I'm going down, down, down, down down
I ain't going down, down, down, down, down
I ain't going down, down, down, down, down
In a two-story town
In this two-story town
Bed of Roses
Sitting here wasted and wounded

at this old piano
Trying hard to capture
the moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares
I think she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
they won't make of me when I'm dead
With an ironclad fist I wake up and

French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
what you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need
I want to lay you on a bed of roses

For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
Well I'm so far away

That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper,
baby blind love is true
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses

The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry

The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died
When you close your eyes

Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonite I won't be alone
But you know that don't
Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses

Keep The Faith
Mother mother tell your children

That their time has just begun
I have suffered for my anger
There are wars that can't be won
Father father please believe me

I am laying down my guns
I am broken like an arrow
Forgive me
Forgive your wayward son
Everybody needs somebody to love

(mother, mother)
Everybody needs somebody to hate
(please believe me)
Everybody's bitching
'cause they can't get enough
And it's hard to hold on
When there's no one to lean on
Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain

Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith: don't let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we got to keep the faith
Tell me baby when I hurt you

Do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me al's forgiven
And just hide behind your pride
Everybody needs somebody to love

(mother, father)
Everybody needs somebody to hate
(please don't leave me)
Everybody's bleeding
'cause the times are tough
Well it's hard to be strong
When there's no one to dream on

Now you know is not too late
Oh you got to keep the faith
Right now we got to
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we got to keep the faith
Walking in the footsteps

Of society's lies
I don't like what I see no more
Sometimes I wish that I was blind
Sometimes I wait forever
To stand out in the rain

So no one sees me cryin'
Trying to wash away the pain
Mother father
There's things I've done I can't erase

Every night we fall from grace
It's hard with the world in yours face

Trying to hold on, trying to hold on

Right now we got to keep the faith
Faith: now it's not too late
Try to hold on, trying to hold on
Keep the faith
99 In The Shade
I feel I'm burning up with fever

But the fire's feeling really good tonight
And it's alright
I'm gonna see Sahara Jack and Suntan Sally
Somebody tells me even
Tommy's coming down tonight
If Gina says it's alright
I'm gonna see those Senoritas

Lying under the sun
They're greasing it up
With know I want to be their blanket
Gonna tell every girl
Hey, baby... You're the one...
Oh tell the boys I'm on my way

I got the radio blasting
in my old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket
cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
When the sun goes down
that's when the street heats up
Senorita Margarita fills your empty cup tonight
She make you feel alright
A good time here don't cost much money

Just a little sweet talking
and a pretty native honey
And you're set for life
Or one hell of a night
I'm gonna see those sons of beaches

Out there living it up the surf and the sand,
Man that life ain't so tough
So get me in the action so I can tell
Every girl she's the one

I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
(solo)
99 in the shade
99 in the shade

I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade...
Bad Medicine
I ain't got a fever got a permanent disease

It'll take more than a doctor to prescribe a remedy
I got lots of money but it isn't what I need
Gonna take more than a shot to get this poison out of me
I got all the symptoms count 'em 1,2,3
First I need
That's what you get for falling in love
Then you bleed
You get a little but it's never enough
On your knees
And now this boy's addicted cause your kiss is the drug
Your love is like bad madicine

Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad madicine
There ain't no doctor that can
Cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine

Bad, bad medicine
I don't need no needle

To be diving me a thrill
And I don't need no anesthesia
Or a nurse to bring a pill
I got a dirty down addition
It doesn't leave a track
I got a jone for your affection
Like a monkey on my back
There ain't no paramedic

Gonna save this heart attack
When you need

Then you bleed
You get a little but it's never enough
On your knees
Now I'm addicted and your kiss is the drug

So let's play doctor, baby
Cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine

Bad, bad medicine
Solo
I need a respirator cause I'm running out of breath

You're an all night generator wrapped is stockings and a dress
When you find your medicine you take what you can get
Cause if there's something better baby well thay haven't found it yet

There ain't no doctor that can
Cure my disease

Your love's the potion that
Can cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine

Bad, bad medicine
Born To Be My Baby
Rainy night and the worked all day

We both got jobs cause there's bills to pay
We got something they can't take away
Our love, our lives
Close the door, leave the cold outside

I don't need nothing when I'm by your side
We got something that'll never die
Our dreams, our pride
My heart beats like a drum (all night)

Flesh to flesh, one to one (and it's alright)
And I'll never let go cause
There's something I know deep inside
You were born to be my baby

And baby, I was made to be your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know where we stand
Only God would know the reasons
But I bet he must have had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
Light a candle, blow the world away

Table for two on a TV tray
It ain't fancy, baby that's OK
Our time, our way
So hold me close better hand on tight

Buckle up, baby, it's a bumpy ride
We're two kids hitching down the road of life
Our world, our flight
If we stand side by side (all night)

There's a chance we'll get by (and it's alright)
And I'll know that you'll be live
In my heart till the day I die

(solo)
My heart beats like a drum (all night)

Flesh to flesh, one to one (and it's alright)
And I'll never let go cause
There's something I know deep inside


I'll Be There For You
I guess this time you're really leaving

I heard your suitcase say goodbye
And as my broken heart lies bleeding
You say true love in suicide
You say you're cried a thousand rivers

And now you're swimming for the shore
You left me drowning in my tears
And you won't save me anymore
Now I'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance, girl
I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I know you know we're had some good times

How they have their own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday
And Baby you know my hands are dirty

But I wanted to be your valentine
I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby
When you get drink, I'll be the wine

(solo)
And I wan't there when you were happy

I wasn't there when you were down
I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out

Lay Your Hands On Me
Lay your hands on me,

Lay your hands on me

If you're ready, I'm willing and able

Help me lay my cards out on the table
You're mine and I'm yours for the taking
Right now the rules
we made are meant for breaking
What you get ain't always what you see

But satisfaction's guaranteed
They say what you give is always what you need
So if you want me to lay my hands on you


I'm a fighter, I'm a poet, I'm a preacher

I've been to school and baby,
I've been the teacher
If you show me how to get up off the ground
I can show you how to fly
and never ever come back down
Everything you want is what I need

Satisfaction's guaranteed
But the ride don't never ever come for free
If you want me to lay my hands on you

(solo)
Don't you know I only aim to please

If you want me to lay my hands on you





Living In Sin
I don't no license
To sign on no line
And I don't need no preacher
To tell me you're mine
I don't need no diamonds
I don't need new bride
I just need you, baby
To look me in the eye
I know they have a hand time

And your Daddy don't approve
But I don't need your Daddy
Telling us what we should do
Now there's a million questions

I could ask about our lives
But I only need one answer
To get me through the night
So I say baby,
can you tell me just where we fit in
I call it love they call it living in sin
Is it you and me or just his world we live in
We're living on love
they say we're living in sin
Is it right for both our parents
Who fight it out most nights
Then pray for God's forgivness
When they both turn out the lights
Or wear that ring of diamonds
When your heart is made of stone
You can talk but still say nothing
You stay together but alone
Or is it right to hold you

And kiss your lips goodnight
They say the promise is forever
If you sign it on the dotted line
Baby, can you tell me just wher we fit in

Is it you and me or just this world we live in
they say we're living in sin
(solo)
Baby, can you tell me just where we fit in

Is it you and me or just this world we live in
or are we living in sin
I don't know where we fit in

Sometimes it scares me...
I don't know where to begin

I don't know where we fit in
Living in sin
Wild Is The Wind
I tried to make you happy

You know I tried so hard to be
What you hoped that I would be
I gave you what you wanted
God couldn't give you what you need
You wanted more from me
Than I could ever be
You wanted heart and soul
But you didn't know, baby
Wild, wild is the wind

That takes me away from you
Cold is the night without your love
To see me through
That blows through my heart
Wild is the wind,

Wild is the wind
You got to understand, baby
Wild is the wind
You need someone to hold you

Somebody to be there night and day
Someone to kiss your fears away
I just went on pretending
Too weak, too proud, too tough to say
I couldn't be the one
To make your dreams come true
That's why I had to run
Though I needed you, baby

To see me through, baby
That blows through my heart tonight
That tears us apart
Wild is the wind,

Wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
(solo)
Maybe a better man

Would live and die for you
Baby, a better man would
Never say goodbye to you, baby

To see me through, baby
That blows through my heart tonight
That tears us apart
Wild is the wind,

Wild is the wind
Wild, wild, wild, wild is the wind
Wild is the wind, oh yeah...
Livin' On A Prayer
Once upon a time

Not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck...it's tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings hom her pay
For love - for love
She says: We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot
We're half way there

Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer
Tommy got his six string in hock

Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers: Baby it's okay, someday
We've got to hold on to what we've got

'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot

Livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
We've got to hold on ready or not

You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

Livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
Never Say Goodbye
As I sit in this smokey room

The night about to end
I pass my time with strangers
But this bottle's my only friend
Remember when we used to park

On Butler Street out in the dark
Remember when we lost the keys
And you lost more than that in my backseat
Remember when we used to talk

About busting out - we'd break their hearts
Together - forever
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye

You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
Holdin' on - we got to try
Holdin' on to never say goodbye
Remember days of skipping school

Racing cars and being cool
With a six pack and the radio
We didn't need no place to go
Remember at the prom that night

You and me we had a fight
But the band they played our favorite song
And I held you in my arms so strong
We danced so close
We danced so slow
And I swore I'd never let you go
Together - forever

(solo)
I guess you'd say we used to talk

About busting out
We'd break their hearts
Together - forever

Raise Your Hands
You - you got a nasty reputation

We're in a sticky situation
it's down to me and you
So tell me - is it true
they say there ain't nobody better
Well now that we're together
Show me what you can do
You're under the gun
Out on the run
Gonna set the night on fire
You're out on the run
Under the gun
And playin' to win
Raise your hands

When you want to let it go
Raise your hands
When you want to let a feeling show
Raise your hands
From New York to Chicago
Raise your hands
From New Jersey to Tokyo
Raise your hands
I - I've been out on the front line

Where you'll go down if you waste time
They'll walk all over you
But I - I ain't here looking for surrender
I'll raise the flag if you'll defend her
It's up to you
You're under the gun
Out on the run
Gonna set the night on fire
You're out on the run
Under the gun
And playin' to win
Raise your hands

Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
(solo)
Raise your hands...

Raise your hands...
Raise your hands

Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands

Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Raise your hands
Wanted Dead or Alive
It's all the same, only the names will change

Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night
Just to get back home
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive
Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days

And people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're all alone all you do is think


I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back

I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, still I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces
And I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
You Give Love A Bad Name
Shot through the heart

and you're to blame
You give love a bad name
An angel's smile is what you sell

You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passion's a prison, you can't break free
You're a loaded gun

There's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

And you're to blame
I play my part and you play your game
You paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boy's dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye
You're a loaded gun

There's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

and you're to blame
I play my part and you play your game
Santa Fe
They say that no man is an island

And good things come to those who wait
But the things I hear are there
Just to remind me
Every dog will have his day
The spirits they intoxicate me

I watched them infiltrate my soul
They try to say it's too late for me
Tell my guns I'm coming home
I swear I'm gonna live forever

Tell my maker he can wait
I'm riding somewhere south of heaven
Heading back to Santa Fe
It's judgement day in Santa Fe
Once I was promised absolution

There's only one solution for my sins
You gotta face your ghosts and know
With no illusions
That only one of you is going home again
And I blame this world for making

A good man evil
It's this world that can drive a
Good man mad
And it's this world that turns a killer
Into a hero
Well I blame this world for making
A good man bad
Now I ain't getting into heaven

If the devil has his way
Got debts to pay in Santa Fe
(solo)
So I save a prayer
For when I need it most
To the Father, Son
And the Holy Ghost
And sign it from a sinner
With no name
When I meet my maker

When I close the book
On the hearts I broke
And the lives I took
Will he walk away
'Cause my soul's
Too late to save
Now I ain't getting into heaven

If the devil has his way
I got debts to pay in Santa Fe
Please Come Home For Christmas
Bells will be ringing the glad, glad news

Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Choirs will be singing Silent Night

Those Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Year's night
Friends and relations send salutations

Just as sure as the stars shine above
This is Christmas, Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one that you love
Then won't you tell me, you'll never more roam

Christmas and New Year
Will find you at home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
I'll be happy that it's Christmas once again.

Slippery When Wet

I wake up in the morning

When you're brought into this world

I'm going out in a blaze of glory

You ask about my conscience

Shot down in a blaze of glory

Each night I go to bed

Shot down in a blaze of glory

This romeo is bleeding

It's been raining since you left me

Now I can't sing a love song

And I will love you, baby - Always

Now your pictures that you left behind

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near

Yeah, I will love you baby - Always

If you told me to cry for you

Well, there ain't no luck

And I will love you, baby - Always

Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen From Mars

Dressed up for a big date

He rides the greyhound from his hometown

Share a toothpick, trading lipstick

They're drunk on love as you can get

If I Could Make A Living Out of Loving You

If there's something that needs fixing

Odd jobs, hard jobs, anything under the sun

I'd be a rich man, it's true

Until the work is finished

Odd jobs, hard jobs, anything under the sun

I'd be a rich man, it's true

Tough jobs, rough jobs, say where and when

I'd be a rich man, it's true

It feels like I'm walkin' on air

I got the girl (with all the cards)

She likes to wear her stripe with her plaids

I got the girl (with all the cards)

If I was a holy man I'd get down on my knees

Now the truth is someday

I got the girl (with all the cards)

I got the girl (she's gonna leave her mark)

I got the girl

This ain't a song for the broken hearted

This is for the ones who stood their ground

Better stand tall when they're calling you out

Hey, man, it's been a while

I like the bed I'm sleeping in

It's good to see your face

I like the bed I'm sleeping in

I'm not old enough to sing the blues

Well, I look in the mirror

I like the bed I'm sleeping in

There are days when she's a whisper

She's a ride on a mystery train

She cries because she's happy

She's a ride on a mystery train

I know everything about her but don't know her at all

She's a ride on a mystery train

Looking like a train wreck

Angel flying solo

She's all mixed up

She got a daily new addiction
