              Face Without A Soul


                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold
                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold

                   Though her hands are cool they'll burn
                   You may kiss her but you'll have to take your turn
                   In her life you're just another bird in the sky
                   When she says you must be ready to fly
                   Ready to fly, up and fly away

                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold
                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold

                   This lady has no love
                   Herself, perhaps, is who she puts above
                   Everything, and of course, everyone
                   Knows this lady thinks she's number one
                   Number one, yes the only one

                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold
                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold

                   She's gonna fall on her face someday
                   Find other men for her games to play
                   I'm gonna make sure everyone knows
                   What she is trying to do
 
                   She's a face without a soul
                   This lady's heart is gold
                   She's a face without a soul...

              Antique Angelique


                   There's a grandfather clock in the corner
                   With a smile on it's face
                   Chairs and tables, expensive labels
                   Velvet curtains and lace
                   Every day when I go in there
                   I will buy a thing or two
                   But money can't buy everything
                   'Cos what I really want is you

                   Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
                   Than everything I have
                   Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
                   Than everything I have

                   Now my house is an empty garden
                   And the shop is so bare
                   All these things that I bought mean nothing
                   'Cos Angelique is still there
                   It's too late now to forget her
                   She means far too much to ignore
                   Now I'm haunted with memories
                   That I just can't stand anymore

                   Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
                   Than everything I have
                   Oh, Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
                   Than everything I have

                   Take back the table, the velvet and lace
                   The chairs, and the clock with the smile on it's face
                   Take them all and stand them where they were before

                   Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
                   Than everything I have
                   Oh, Antique Angelique, close the door, and now
                   You're everything I have
                   Antique Angelique, you mean more to me
                   Than everything I have
                   Antique Angelique...

              Poor Old Man


                   He is in his room, men will be there soon
                   They come to smash the heaven he has known
                   Now he's sure to know soon that he must go
                   This backstreet dream he has to leave behind
                   Oh, what a shame, oh what a shame

                   He's a poor old man, poor old man
                   Poor old man, can we help you?

                   Things are at their worst, what should he do first?
                   He must wonder, no one wants to know
                   He must spread his wings, pack away his things
                   A sack is all he needs for all he owns
                   Tears they blind his eyes, tears blind his eyes

                   He's a poor old man, poor old man
                   Poor old man, can we help you at all?

                   Poor old man, poor old man
                   Poor old man, can we help you at all?

                   Poor old man, poor old man
                   Poor old man, can we help you at all?

              Little Miss Nothing


                   People all around they look at you, and I have seen them sneer
                   But they don't realise how much I need you, 
                                                     so let me make it very clear
                   That you won't have to worry just 'cos your clothes are torn

                   Your windows they need cleaning and the weeds are growing high
                   But Little Miss Nothing I won't pass you by

                   You have no daddy to tell your troubles to, 
                                     but don't you worry I'll share them with you
                   We won't worry about the stormy weather, 
                                   if you have troubles we'll share them together
                   Your house is nearly falling, but I'll change all that for you

                   Your windows they need cleaning and the weeds are growing high
                   But Little Miss Nothing I won't pass you by
                   Now I will clean your windows, cut the weeds from high to low
                   I will mend your rooftops, and the taps again will flow
                   But Little Miss Nothing I won't let you go

              When I Awake


                   There's an emerald sky
                   Silver birds flying by
                   Purple trees all around
                   Velvet grass on the ground

                   Then I see a face, of the girl who's calling me
                   And love is in my eyes for this girl was just a dream

                   When I awake she is gone
                   And I return to reality
                   When I awake she is gone
                   Because it's just a dream, a fantasy

                   Then the morning light
                   Slowly flows into night
                   And I close my eyes
                   And reality dies

                   Again I see the face of the girl who's calling me
                   And now she's in my arms but this love can never be

                   When I awake she is gone
                   And I return to reality
                   When I awake she is gone
                   Because it's just a dream, a fantasy

                   Again I see the face of the girl who's calling me
                   And now she's in my arms but this love can never be

                   When I awake she is gone
                   And I return to reality
                   When I awake she is gone
                   Because it's just a dream, a fantasy
                   When I awake...

              Nothing At All


                   There's a man sitting in a concrete room
                   In a place full of emptiness and gloom
                   With his head in his hands he's far away
                   It's a long time ago since yesterday

                   And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all

                   As a boy he had made so many friends
                   Now they're gone loneliness just never ends
                   And in that cold concrete room he trials the day
                   Yes, the price of a life is hard to pay

                   And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all

                   Close your eyes, there's nothing more to see
                   Close your eyes and thank the world you're free

                   There's a man sitting in a concrete room
                   In a place full of emptiness and gloom
                   With his head in his hands he's far away
                   It's a long time ago since yesterday

                   And now his hands catch the tears that start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   And now his hands catch the tears that start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   And now his hands, like the tears start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   Yes, now his hands, like the tears start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   And now his hands, now his hands start to fall
                   In his world of nothing at all
                   Yes, now his hands...

              Backwater


                   Down at Backwater junction rolling down the line
                   In the dark early morning I heard the one-forty-nine
                   I was walking down the highway, needed somewhere to go
                   A lady laid beside me and she invited me home
                   She led me cold, tired and hungry down the backwater road

                   In a house on the corner looking over the track
                   I woke up with a fever and a pain in my back
                   She was lying there beside me, my fever started to grow
                   Had a funny feeling but the lady said no
                   My lover needs a doctor down the Backwater Road

                   Whatcha lookin' for, whatcha lookin' for
                   Lady do you know what cha' lookin' for
                   Was I wrong to play along?
                   Lady was I right or lady was I wrong?

                   Backwater doctor, you've got me breathing in time
                   It's ten-thirty in the morning and I'm feeling alright
                   I went back to my lady but I wasn't to know
                   Lady left this morning and she's not coming home
                   I was cold when she left me down the Backwater Road

              Just Take Me


                   I am just a poor man, got nowhere to go
                   All my leaves have fallen, left me all alone
                   If I was a rich man, if I was a king
                   I would give you all I have, give you everything
                   If you'd just take me, just take me now
                   If you'd just take me

                   Never seen my daddy, died when I was two
                   Mama did the best she could, taught me all she knew
                   Said that love was everything, tears came to her eyes
                   Never knew the meaning, now I realise
                   Love is all you need, all you need now
                   If you just take me

                   I'm trying hard to get you, I'm not the only one
                   Never had a big car, but I'm not on the run
                   If love has got a meaning see it in my eyes
                   If you see the beginning, then you'd realise
                   Love is all you need, all you need now
                   If you just take me
                   Just take me
                   Just take me now

              Break The Rules


                   Spent a long, long evening in a low down honky-tonk bar
                   Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car
                   I asked no questions, I got no lies
                   A one off winner, I didn't want any ties
                   And I knew it wasn't right
                   Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
                   
                   Took me down on the highway doing too many miles an hour
                   And by the way she motored thought we might have made 
                                                           the Eiffel Tower
                   She stopped the motor by her own front door
                   I knew she'd done it so many times before
                   But I was off of the floor
                   But everybody has to sometimes break the rules

                   I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down
                   'Cos I did not know if I was in or out of the town
                   Then I saw the face from the night before
                   My purse was empty lying there on the floor
                   But like I told you before
                   That, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

                   I spend a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool
                   And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool
                   But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
                   Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
                   Yes, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

              Drifting Away


                   You can't see what you mean to me
                   I just can't get you out of my head
                   You move me more than I've ever been
                   Like a wild supersonic jet
                   But I can't see your love drifting away
                   And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away 

                   I got told by a friend of mine
                   That you don't want me anymore
                   Now my friend's got a broken nose
                   Sure, and I got a broken jaw
                   So don't push me around, I'm coming your way
                   And I don't want your love d-d-d-drifting away 

                   Don't you know what I'm living for?
                   Don't you know what I'm trying to say?
                   Don't try to shove me outta that door
                   'Cos you're mine and it's staying that way
                   I'm giving you my love, don't throw it away
                   But I can see your love d-d-d-drifting away
                   Oh, drifting away, you got me drifting away
                   Oh, drifting away

              Slow Train


                   I can't afford a ticket on an old Dakota airplane
                   I gotta jump a ride on a cattle-trucking slow train
                   I guess it doesn't matter
                   As long as I can get my head down in the sun

                   I wrote a rockin' song, gonna sing it at the station
                   I'll finish all the words when I reach my destination
                   I guess it doesn't matter
                   As long as I can get my head down in the sun

                   Hey mama, please now don't you fret none
                   Don't worry, but please don't you forget
                   Hey mama, please don't get upset none
                   I gotta leave to find me something better

                   Hey mama, things gonna work out fine now
                   Believe me, no need for you to write
                   Hey mama, things gonna work out fine now
                   I gotta friend who said that she'd invite me

                   I came here in the morning and I crept out 
                                                        in the middle of night
                   I gave nobody warning I was leaving and I felt it was right
                   Now I'm off again, it sure is feeling all right

                   Got a feeling that I'm leaving with a ticket 
                                                       and I won't jump a ride
                   It's no good you believing that my leaving was a wrong, 
                                                                  it was right

              Broken Man


                   Sitting by a broken window
                   Up in a back room swallowing wine
                   Gazing down a backstreet garden
                   With my bed chair table and wine
                   Looks like I'm going no where but no where's where I am
                   Guess I'll always be a backstreet broken man

                   Calling out my name and number
                   As I was walking out of my cell
                   Louie gave me back my wallet
                   He nearly dropped my picture of Nell
                   Drinking gets you nowhere but nowhere's where I am
                   Guess I'll always be a backstreet broken man
                   Oh broken man, oh yeah, broken man

                   Early on a Sunday morning
                   As I was walking on down the lane
                   Someone said, I beg your pardon
                   And I was sure I knew her name
                   She was going somewhere but nowhere's where I ran
                   Guess I'll always be a backstreet broken man
                   Oh that's where I am, guess I'll always be 
                                                   a backstreet broken man

              Blue For You


                   When I get old and find the time
                   I'll paint a picture about my life
                   I'll paint it blue for you, I'll paint it blue for you
                   You gave me love, a love so strong
                   I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
                   Now I want to show, I feel so low, I'm blue for you

                   When I was younger I tried so hard
                   To find a good woman and give her my love
                   I found a woman sweet as can be, I found a woman for me
                   I didn't know I had the world
                   I was still looking for ways to your love
                   Now that I know, I feel so low, I'm blue for you

                   Cheatin' and lyin', I played around
                   Livin' and dyin', you stood your ground
                   Cheatin' and lyin', you knew so well
                   There's no good denying, you know me too well

                   When I'm alone I realise
                   Your eyes were smilin' but deep inside
                   I saw the blue in you, everything blue for you
                   You gave me love, a love so strong
                   I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
                   Now I want to show, I feel so low, I'm blue for you
                   Feel so low, I'm blue for you
                   I feel so low I'm blue for you

              That's A Fact


                   Sitting in a cornfield
                   Looking at the cob
                   Thinking of a long line
                   Waiting for a job
                   And I'm alone and that's a fact
                   I'm alone and that's a fact

                   Sitting in a full car
                   someone at the wheel
                   Going to a new stop
                   I wonder if it's real
                   And I'm alone and that's a fact
                   And I'm alone and that's a fact

                   I need to maybe talk to you
                   Said I need to and said I need you
                   I need to I need to be with you
                   I said I need to I gotta see you

                   Sitting at a new stop
                   Didn't get the job
                   Couldn't find a long line
                   Took another drop
                   And I'm alone and that's a fact
                   So I'm alone and that's a fact

                   Sitting at a new stop
                   Didn't get the job
                   Couldn't find a long line
                   Took another drop
                   And I'm alone and that's a fact
                   So I'm alone and that's a fact
                   So I'm alone and that's a fact

              Hard Time


                   Asked my girl what she wanted from me
                   She said ev'rything that I can see
                   I said baby what d'you thing of me
                   And she said nothing at all

                   So I sit here waiting patiently
                   To see if there will be a change or three
                   I think that baby she is using me
                   It doesn't matter at all
                   And now I'm wond'ring which way to go

                   So it's a hard time for us all 'til she gets it right
                   Yes it's a hard time for us all be som kind of fight
                   She makes the same excuse for making all the same mistakes again
                   
                   Now I think of all the times we had
                   Yeah, of all the good and all the bad
                   I sometimes think that maybe I've been had
                   It doesn't matter at all
                   And now I'm wond'ring which way to go

                   So it's a hard time for us all 'til she gets it right
                   Yes it's a hard time for us all be som kind of fight

                   And so I'm wond'ring which way to go

                   So it's a hard time for us all 'til she gets it straight
                   Yes it's a hard time for us all, hope she's not too late
                   She makes the same excuse for making all the same mistakes again
                   Oh it's a hard time for us all 'til she gets it right

              For You


                   Now I see the light that's shining from your eyes
                   Even brighter than before
                   Telling me something now that I believe is true
                   'Cos I found the truth with you

                   I will take you with me everywhere I go
                   Flying higher than before
                   With a feeling that is meant for you and me
                   Every day a little more

                   If we see a way together as we go
                   We will never be alone
                   Oh no, no, no, no, no, no-oh-oh
                   Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

                   If I think of all the things that I have seen
                   And I look at me
                   When I think of all the things that I could do
                   I could do them all with you
                   I would do them all with you
                   I will do them all for you

              Oh! What A Night


                   Walking the tightrope
                   And losing my pole
                   I hang on by my teeth
                   One of those nights
                   It didn't feel too right
                   Gonna cry myself to sleep
                   
                   Oh! What a night
                   Oh! What a flight it was
                   Oh! Oh! What a night

                   No telephone news
                   And I'm missing you
                   I can't afford to phone
                   There's a thousand people
                   Using my room
                   But I never felt so alone

                   Oh! What a night
                   Oh! What a flight it was
                   Oh! Oh! What a night

                   I picture your face
                   I keep on hearing your voice
                   I'm dying in the sheets
                   I daren't think too much
                   So I drink too much
                   I still can't get to sleep

                   Oh! What a night
                   Oh! What a flight it was
                   Oh! Oh! What a night

              Stones


                   I'm moving on, I don't know where
                   But, I've just gotta get me away, from here
                   So long gone, I'm lost in time
                   Looking for an answer, waiting for a sign

                   Stones in my head, stones in my head
                   I don't know how to break stones in my head

                   I'm reaching out, I don't feel a thing
                   The gloves, that I'm wearing are made of my skin
                   Nobody knows what I'm tryin' to hide
                   But when I start breaking you'll see through my eyes

                   Stones in my head, stones in my head
                   Trying hard to break stones in my head

                   It's cold out here, still I'm feeling fine
                   'Cos no one's gonna ask me to come on inside
                   I don't wanna know but I guess I do
                   'Cos maybe these stones are made out of you

                   Stones in my head, stones in my head
                   I really wanna break stones in my head
                   Stones in my head, stones in my head
                   I don't know how to break stones in my head...

                   I've got a feeling
                   You're gonna run away anyday
                   Why does it always seem to be me?

                   So let me fly

                   You're thinking you got everything right
                   But you're fooling no-one else but yourself

                   So let me fly

                   And everyone who called you a friend
                   Will never again

                   Is all in a day
                   They treat me well
                   They treat me nice
                   They think that I'm gonna pay the price
                   So now I'm gonna put you straight
                   You're playing my game

                   Is now an open door

                   The mountains start to call
                   But do I feel you walking in my heart?

                   And looking for a lover won't bee too much fun
                   Tonight tonight

                   I'm standing in line again
                   Waisting my time
                   I know I'd feel fine again
                   With you on the line
                   With you on the line

                   And I'm falling in falling out and
                   Still don't know what it's all about
                   I'm falling in falling out
                   I'm creeping in but I'm crawling out again
                   Falling in falling out
                   I'm giving up so I'm calling out to you

                   I bet you're thinking you where just a game
                   I bet you bet I can recall your name
                   Tonight tonight
                   How can I tell you if I can't get through
                   How can I make it if I'm not with you
                   Tonight tonight

                   I'm standing in line again
                   Waisting my time
                   I know I'd feel fine again

              Riverside


                   She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
                   She left me so downhearted there and I really cried
                   About mistakes I'd made and it's a crying shame
                   I can't believ the way they start all over again

                   She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
                   Without a word or a note, so I couldn't find
                   A reason for to stay where I wanted to stay
                   There didn't seem to me to be anyway

                   I got away from the city from the riverside
                   And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
                   It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
                   I turned around to be where I wanted to be

                   I got away from the city from the riverside
                   And it was all nitty gritty there, however I tried
                   I didn't wait to feel how I knew I would feel
                   I had to turn around, 'cos I wouldn't be found

                   Don't blame me or point your finger at me
                   I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger at me
                   Don't you do it, don't you do it to me
                   Don't point your finger my way
                   Don't put the blame all my way

                   She found me so light-hearted by the riverside
                   She didn't cry or try and I didn't mind
                   'Cos I just had to stay wher I wanted to stay
                   And the mistakes I made, I made them anyway
                   
                   She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
                   And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
                   It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
                   I turned around to be where I wanted to be

                   Don't blame me or point your finger at me
                   I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger at me
                   Don't you do it, don't you do it to me
                   Don't point your finger my way
                   Don't put the blame all my way

                   She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
                   And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried

              Young Pretender


                   You thought that I would be so warm and tender 
                   That love could be so very nice 
                   I made a call to find suspicion on the line
                   Why couldn't you be all
                   I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
                   Again too late I realise
                   The reasons now I find, conditions at the time
                   Did not allow for you to be

                   So don't you worry
                   I've got it all under control
                   Take time don't worry
                   I'm only halfway through a dream

                   Now love can really be so warm and tender
                   And can be oh so very nice
                   But not that way I said, too late too soon you said
                   Too soon, you said, too late to soon

                   So don't you worry
                   I've got it all under control
                   Take time don't worry
                   I'm only halfway through a dream

                   You thought that I would be so warm and tender
                   That love could be so very nice

                   Why couldn't you be all
                   I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
                   A young pretender, be a young pretender
                   I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
                   A young pretender, be a young pretender
                   I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
                   A young pretender, be a young pretender...

              Jealousy


                   Just jealousy, my jealousy
                   Is what you see doing me
                   Jealous of me, such jealousy
                   It shouldn't be - leave me alone

                   Time is running out, out runs the time
                   I waste it on my own
                   But don't think I'm alone
                   Oh no, not again, I won't reply
                   I can't stay on the phone
                   I'll see you back at home
                   I really did think that problem was solved
                   But it is not

                   It shouldn't be - leave me alone

                   I've got another one, listen to me
                   And don't get all hung on
                   To things I have done wrong
                   Oh no, not again, I won't reply
                   It's only how I feel
                   It sometimes seems unreal
                   But everybody gets there once in a while
                   Are you wishing?

                   Just jealousy, my jealousy
                   Is what you see doing me

              Resurrection


                   Sat by a river, wasting my time
                   I looked at the water and it gave me a sign
                   I made connection, my reflection
                   Was calling me back to rock and roll

                   It was moving, moving along
                   I looked a little closer and I thought of a song
                   And my raection was satisfaction
                   Calling me back to rock and roll

                   Calling, calling me back
                   I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track
                   Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord
                   I'm gonna play some rock and roll

                   I was looking, looking ahead
                   Staying up instead of falling back into bed
                   Fuel injected, I've been elected
                   He's calling me back to rock and roll

                   It must be something, something He said
                   That's changing my mind and adjusting my head
                   A new direction, a resurrection
                   Calling me back to rock and roll

                   Calling, calling me back
                   I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track
                   Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord
                   I'm gonna play some rock and roll

                   I know where I'm heading for
                   I know what I wanna be
                   When they asked me at school what I wanted to be

                   I wanna be a big man, nobody putting me down

                   They say love is all you need
                   But everyone needs to know
                   If you look a bit tough when you talk about love
                   I'm sure that love would grow

                   I wanna be a big man, nobody putting me down
                   I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah

                   Look around, see if I'm wrong
                   It's only a show for those who don't belong

                   I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
                   I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah

                   I know what I'm living for
                   But there ain't no guarantee
                   If I make a wrong move you could jump in my shoes
                   And that ain't no good to me

                   I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
                   I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah

              Too Close To The Ground


                   When the light hits your eyes in the morning
                   And the fight to survive is braking you down
                   You see a chance for an answer to fill the empty spaces
                   But you still don't know what to do
                   You're too close to the ground

                   When the night closes in like an old friend
                   And the last of your pills is taking you down
                   You know the doctor's prescription ain't working like it used to
                   But you still don't know what to do
                   You're too close to the ground
                   Still going down

                   All your life you were waiting
                   Just to pass up the dream and leave my town
                   You blew your chance for an answer  to fill the empty spaces
                   Oh, you just don't know what to do
                   You're too close to the ground
                   Too close to the ground

                   I didn't wanna know
                   Knowing I had to go
                   Left my place of residence
                   Down the drive and past the fence
                   I'm coming back again
                   Wish I could tell you when
                   I never been away so long before

                   So they made us stay the night
                   And it was harassing
                   Very embarrassing
                   That's another place that I have seen

                   Keeping out and never creeping in
                   No I ain't ever doing that again
                   I know I've done some silly things
                   But I ain't ever doing that again 
                   No I ain't ever doing that again
                   I ain't ever doing that again 
                   No I ain't ever doing that again

              Marguerita Time


                   Captured my heart
                   Captured my memory
                   Captured a time for me
                   I could see
                   A time for me
                   Is gonna be

                   Deep in my heart
                   Deep in my memory
                   Deep in a part of me
                   Heart of me
                   Meant to be history
                   Could it be that I'm still wondering

                   I never knew what had happened to me
                   I didn't think it was true
                   That I could be just like anyone else
                   I'll take my chance with you

                   Picture a dream
                   Picture a fantasy
                   Picture a mood of me
                   Mystery you and me a mystery

                   Lost in a dream
                   Lost in a fantasy
                   Lost in what seemed to be
                   Dreams to be
                   Seemed to be
                   Had to be
                   Couldn't find no other reason

                   I never knew what had happened to me
                   I didn't think it was true
                   That I could be just like anyone else
                   I'll take my chance with you

                   Lets have a drink
                   It's Marguerita time
                   It's Marguerita time 
                   After nine 
                   Summer time
                   Any time
                   You'll still always find me wondering

                   I never knew what had happened to me
                   I didn't think it was true
                   That I could be just like anyone else
                   I'll take my chance with you
