SEND ME AN ANGEL
Everynight I hit the streets
All alone burnin’ with the need
Broken dreams and an empty heart have got me
I need a lover with a lot of heart
It’s so hard when you’re in the dark
And no one’s there to help you find your way
I keep running in the night, searchin’ for the light
Cryin’ for someone to rescue me
Won't you send me, send me an angel
Send me, send me an angel
Send me an angel tonight, tonight
Keep lookin’ but I can't see
Listen hard but I don’t believe
Is this the way it really has to be?
Say you’re in or count me out
I can’t live with all this doubt
Save my life with a single word
And I’m out here in the dark
I don’t know where to start
Begging for my feelings to be heard
Won't you send me, send me an angel
Send me, send me an angel
Send me an angel tonight, tonight
I keep running in the night, searchin’ for the light
Cryin’ for someone to rescue me
Won't you send me, send me an angel
Send me, send me an angel
Send me an angel tonight, tonight
Won't you send me an angel
CROSSFIRE
You can have her, I don’t want her
I don’t want you around
You have taken all the feelings
And run them in the ground
With all your lyin’, you’ve been tryin’
To leave me in the cold
First you want him, then you want me
The story’s gettin’ old
I’m caught up in a crossfire
Oh, don’t you know that you’re a live wire
You got me feeling baby like I’m on fire
What’s a lonely man to do?
Put another slug in the chamber
You play roulette with love
Take your chances with danger dances
You’ll pay for it with blood
With all your lyin’, you’ve been tryin’
To leave me in the cold
First you want him, then you want me
The story’s gettin’ old
I’m caught up in a crossfire
Oh, don’t you know that you’re a live wire
You got me feeling baby like I’m on fire
What’s a lonely man to do?
I’m caught up in a crossfire
Oh, don’t you know that you’re a live wire
You got me feeling baby like I’m on fire
What’s a lonely man to do?
You’ve got me in your sights
There’s nothing I can do
Maybe in the dead of night
I can slip away from you
With all your lyin’, you’ve been tryin’
To leave me in the cold
First you want him, then you want me
The story’s gettin’ old
I’m caught up in a crossfire
Oh, don’t you know that you’re a live wire
You got me feeling baby like I’m on fire
What’s a lonely man to do?
I’m caught up in a crossfire
Oh, don’t you know that you’re a live wire
You got me feeling baby like I’m on fire
What’s a lonely man to do?
I’m caught up in a crossfire
Oh, don’t you know that you’re a live wire
You got me feeling baby like I’m on fire
What’s a lonely man to do?
HEART’S GROWN COLD
Oh, go out and have your habit
You’re the one who’s takin’ it
You’re the one who’s fakin’ it
You’re the one who’s heart’s grown cold
You’re the one who’s heart’s grown cold
Come down and tell me that it’s better
You’re the one who’s using it
You’re the one who’s losing it
You’re the one who’s got no soul
You’re the one who’s heart’s grown cold
I touch your lips with my fingertips
I hand on every breath you take
You don’t need me like I need you
You have your heartaches tonight
Everyday, I just hope and pray
I just hope that you still care
That you still have your dreams, oh
Baby, honey, let me tell you that
Your heart’s grown cold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, honey, let me tell you that
Your heart’s grown cold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, honey, let me tell you that
Your heart’s grown cold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
WE'RE GOIN’ DOWN
Feelin’ low down and I’m drug out
I’m feelin’ hungry again
I need a taste of your sweet lovin’
I don’t think it’s a sin
I don’t need a lot of lovin’
I don’t need a lot of time
I don’t need much to speak of
Let me love you, won't you be mine
It’s getting harder by the minute
I’ve been away too long
It’s after hours, you’ve got the power
To keep me comin’ on strong
I don’t need a lot of lovin’
I don’t need a lot of time
I don’t need much to speak of
Let me love you, won’t you be mine
We’re going down
We’re going down, to dine at the Y
We’re going down, we’re going down
Yeah, did you like it?
You didn’t fight it
I know it wasn’t a sin
You got the power, it’s after hours
I think I’m hungry again
I don’t need a lot of lovin’
I don’t need a lot of time
I don’t need much to speak of
Let me love you, won’t you be mine
We’re going down
We’re going down, to dine at the Y
We’re going down, we’re going down
We’re going down
We’re going down, to dine at the Y
We’re going down, we’re going down
We’re going down
We’re going down, to dine at the Y
We’re going down, we’re going down
TEENAGE IDOL
A lonely boy in the city
Standing tall up to his blue jean
Jacket and eyes of pity
He’s got a dream, now he told his Papa
”Don’t you worry Daddy
I’ll be back to show you the life I’ve made”
With a tear falling from his eyes
He knew what he wanted to be
Oh, he wants to be, yes, he’s got to be
Oh, he’d love to be a teenage idol
Standing in his hometown
Waiting for the bus that will take him
Farther than he’s ever been
Packed his bags and kissed his sweetheart
”Don't you worry honey
I’ll be back to show you what a life I made”
With a tear falling from her eyes
She knew that he’d love to be
Oh, he wants to be, yes, he’s got to be
Oh, he’d love to be a teenage idol
Oh, if he could see his name on the marquee
He’d live so happily, as a teenage idol
He’s in another city
Standing tall up to his satin
Jacket and eyes of pity
He’s got it all except for his Papa
”Don’t you worry, Daddy
I’ve shown them what a pretty life I’ve made
Even though I’ll miss you badly
You know I always wanted to be"
Oh, I want to be, yes, I’ve got to be
Oh, I’d love to be a teenage idol
Oh, I want to be, yes, I’ve got to be
Oh, I’d love to be a teenage idol
Yes, I want to be, oh I’ve got to be
Oh, I wan to be a teenage idol
Yes, I love to see my name on the marquee
I’d live so happily, as a teenage idol
Oh, I’d want to be, yes, I got to be
Oh, I’d love to be, oh, a teenage idol
GOIN’ IN CIRCLES
I’ve laid in bed alone most every night
I’m havin’ dreams of you
Been hearin’ things about you I don’t wanna know
Tell me woman it ain’t true
You got me goin’ in circles
I’m runnin’ all around
You got me goin’ in circles
Round and round and up and down
You say forever, I think it’s now or never
My heart is in your hand
Drop it on the floor, step on it once more
You’re so hard to understand
You got me goin’ in circles
I’m runnin’ all around
You got me goin’ in circles
I’m runnin’ all around
You got me goin’ in circles
Round and round and up and dow
You got me goin’ in circles
I’m runnin’ all around
You got me goin’ in circles
I’m runnin’ all around
You got me goin’ in circles
I’m runnin’ all around
You got me goin’ in circles
Round and round and up and dow
RUN FOR COVER
Winter wind is blowin’ in
Makin’ me feel low, so low
Even though the fire’s in my heart
It doesn’t warm the soul
We had it all but it wasn’t enough
You played a dangerous game
You made your move, now you got to choose
Between me and the pain
You run for cover
You run with another
Run for cover, from me, yes you do
Can’t believe you got a heart of stone
It’s such a cold surprise
Don’t try and hide behind those empty words
It’s right there in your eyes
Said you wanted to name the dance
To face the word on your own
I ain’t givin’ you a second chance
You gotta dance alone
You run for cover
You run with another
Run for cover, from me
You run for cover
You're running with another
Run for cover, from me, yes you do
Now you’ve had your final dance
Go face the world on your own
I ain’t givin’ you a second chance
Now you’re all alone
You run for cover
You're running with another
You run for cover, from me, yes you do
Run for cover
Run with another
Run for cover, from me, yes you do
Run for cover
Run with another
Run for cover, from me, yes you do
WHITE MAN’S LAND
I am a savage, I’m always on the run
Four wheels my animal, this guitar is my gun
I never eat and I never sleep
Oh, I got to move
Seems that everywhere I stand
I’m always on white man’s land
The tax man is at your door
You’re caught up in the race
You’re so down you need a ticket
For a trip to outer space
You wanna run, you wanna hide
This ain’t what you planne
If you are a woman or a man
Your life is nothin’ in his hands
Seems that everywhere I stand
I’m always on white man’s land, oh yes
Can you remember when
You've had so much fun?
Do you feel you’re always
At the wrong end of a gun?
You know that it’s a bit too late
To start your life again
And if you are a woman or a man
Your life is nothin’ in his hands
Seems that everywhere I stand
I’m always on this white man’s land
Oh, you're standin’ on it
SAIL AWAY
So far, far away
I traveled cross this world today
I’m sailin’ on, sailin’ on, I’ll sail away
As the spotlight falls around me
You know I’m drowin’ in this life
And through it all, I hold onto you
Into the sunset, my heart is true
I’m movin’ on, for one last song
I’m sailin’ on, I’ll sail away
I'm sailin’ on, sailin’ on, I'll say away
A time to leave, a place to see
‘Cause in my soul, I’m a ramblin’ free
And through it all, I hold onto you
Into the sunset, my heart is true
I’m movin’ on, for one last song
I’m sailin’ on, I'll sail away
Sailin’ on, sailin’ on, I'll say away
Sailin’ on, sailin’ on, I'll say away
Sail away
DRIVIN’ FOOL
Yeah, come on, come on, come on
Well, I’m a drivin’ fool
Got my foot on the gas
Look out mister, I’m gonna pass
Ninety miles an hour and I’m all alone
The wind’s in my face
And I’m headed for home
Up from the streets
In the heat of the night
Lookin’ for a lover
Ain’t lookin’ for no fight
Don’t want no trouble, cause any harm
Just want a pretty girl hangin’ on my arm
Ain’t no road too fast
Ain’t no road too slow
Fill me up with the super
Show me which way to go
I’m a drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Kickin’ up the dirt and gravel
Faster than you ever seen
Harder than the road I travel
This is a bitchin’ machine
I won’t take no excuses
Don’t want to hear no phony lines
Can’t stand a useless muther
Wastin’ my precious time
'Cause ain’t no road too fast
Ain’t no road too slow
Fill me up with the super
Show me which way to go
I’m a drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
It’s early in the morning
And I left her bed
Gimme more, gimme more
Is ringin’ in my head
The highway’s callin’
And I got to move
I don’t feel bad ‘cause
It happens to you
I really don't know where I’m goin’
This kind of life is tippin’ the scale
The marker on my dipstick says I’m cool
Good-God almighty, I’m a drivin’ fool
Ain’t no road too fast
Ain’t no road too slow
Fill me up with the super
Show me which way to go
I’m a drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
Drivin’ fool, drivin’ fool
