All The Kings Horses
I know you
You always rode so tall in the saddle
You are the answer
But I know that you are only causin' trouble
Take all you want, leave me the rest behind
You're a user
A winnin' no new friends, just make one small step
You're a user
You never came to anyone's call
Spent all your life head on the wall
While you're up there, there's only one way to fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never put you together again
You still got your chances
The one thing the whole world loves is a winner
You can't walk on water
With your heat the ice you're on is gettin' thinner
You used to be so wise
But you are fooled by your own lies
And I see right through your disguise
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never put you together again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Will never put you together again.

Big Boy
A shoe shine boy gave me a nickel
With a smile on his face
The school kids would give me some gin
If I would let them in
They were shaking all over
Ran into a friend with a lonely lady on his arm
Woke up in my garage, I was holding my own
Can't remember where I'd been
I was aching all over
From rolling on the stone
I was aching all over from rolling on the hard stone.
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
Kissin' cousins just ain't my style
Not like some knight in shining armour
Touring with the sideshow
That was my blow
But we hung on for the fun
Lots of fun for everyone
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
Till the danger man with his danger plan
He took me aside
And then he took me apart
I was a young man with love in my heart
Oh, how he made me pay
It was the hard way
It was the hard way
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
Ooh, what a night!

Freewheeler
I'm a freewheeler, an underground dealer
The kind of guy you never get to know
So you can quit thinking about stoppin' my drinkin'
You know I'll go the road I choose to go
I'm a freewheeler, living undercover
When things get hot I have to move out fast
When they know I'm lyin', the women come cryin'
But still I go the road I choose to go
No-one's ever going to re-arrange me
No-one's ever going to try to change me
You know I'll go the road I choose to go
I'm doin' fine, takin' my time
I don't want to settle down
No,no,no

Heart's Grown Cold
Go out and have your habit,
Keep on takin' it
Keep on fakin' it
You're the one whose heart grows cold
You're the one whose heart's grown cold.
Go out and have your habit
You're the one that's takin' it
You're the one that's fakin' it
You're the one whose heart's grown cold
You're the one whose heart's grown cold.
I touch your lips with my fingertips
I hang on every breath you take
You don't need me like,
I need you
You have your heartaches to climb
Everyday, I just hope and pray
I just hope that you still have,
That you still have your dreams.
Come down and tell me that it's better
You're the one who's choosin' it
You're the one who's losin' it
You're the one who's got no soul,
You're the one whose heart's grown cold.

Holiday
Drinkin' my wine, makes me feel fine,
Gonna have me a holiday
Poorman's party, rich man's daughter,
Gettin' hotter and hotter.
She's pushin' way too hard
I don't want any part of her way
Drinkin' my wine, makes me feel fine,
Gonna have me a holiday.
It's a holiday, it's a holiday
Mama, mama, please no more jaguars
I don't want to be a pop star
Mama, mama, please no more deckhands
I don't want to be a sailor man
Mama, mama, please no more facelifts
I just don't know which one you is
Mama, mama, please no more husbands
Drinkin' my wine, wastin' my time
Hidin' out in my rented dream
Lookin' for attention
A cover story mention in
Life magazine
Ask the chauffeur who he knows
Numbers he's got, lots of those.
Drinkin' my wine, spendin' my time
Tryin' to run from this halloween.
It's a holiday, it's a holiday
Mama, mama, please no more jaguars
I don't want to be a pop star
Mama, mama, please no more deckhands
I don't wanna be a sailor man
Mama, mama, please no more facelifts
I just don't know which one you is
Mama, mama, please no more husbands
I don't know who my daddy is.
It's a holiday, it's a holiday

Madelaine
Standing watching a pale blue moon,
Rising slowly in the winter sky,
Waiting, hoping she'll be home soon,
And I won't ask her where or why.
As the evening shadows fall,
Madelaine, Madelaine
I can hear the night wind call,
Call her name, Madelaine.
Turning slowly I hear her call,
Echo softly through the silver pines,
Walking home the first snowflake falls,
Still, she's always on my mind.
As the evening shadows fall,
Madelaine, Madelaine
I can hear the night wind call,
Call her name, Madelaine.

Ship Of Dreams
Here we are
We sail on a ship made of dreams
And I
I only exist to believe
The stars
The stars that I see watching me
Hold me close
Your arms and your love comfort me
The sea
Is deep and it waits endlessly
Oh why
To give just to take it from me
Here we are
We sail on a ship made of dreams
And I
I watch for a sign constantly
The sea
Is deep and it waits ceaselessly.

Tomorrow you'll be on your way
Could be Memphis or L.A.
No questions just get out and play.
Wake up call to catch the plane
You know you're on the road again
Someone's bangin' in your head
Why did you get so late to bed.
Runnin' late and feelin' bad
That breakfast was the worst you've had
Make the gate no time to spare
Before you know you're in the air.
747 flies us high
Much higher than we're meant to be
You're six miles high but feelin' down
You wish you could be on the ground.
Find your bags and walk for miles
The customs man is waitin' there
Immigration cause delay
You wonder if you'll ever play.
Limousine is standin' by
We get inside and drive a while
F. M. Station soundin' good
And gettin' better every mile.
Hotel lobby looks the same
With all the same old girls in town
Press reception takes the day
With all the same old things to say
Need your picture smile this way
And will you tell me what you play
So you wanna be a rock'n'roll star
Just listen now to what I say
Get yourself an electric guitar
and take some time and learn to play.
Your roadies call to say OK
The soundcheck can get underway
Soundcheckover, had some fun
A waste of time for everyone
Time has come to start the show
It's boogie time for everyone
Check guitars before you go
They're close enough for rock n roll
The lights are low,
The crowd is high,much higher than
They're meant to be
We take the stage and start to play
The lights come up for all to see
Here we are again, singin' the same old songs
Lookin for someone who will sing along
Here we are again playin' the same old scenes
Lookin'for someone who will share our dreams
Here we are again facing the same old sights
Lookin' for someone who will share our nights

This Flight Tonight
Look out the left the captain said
The lights down there that's where we'll land
Saw a falling star burning
High above the Las Vegas sand
It wasn't the one that you gave to me
That night down south between the trailers
Not the early one that you wish upon
Not the northern one that guides in the sailors
You've got that touch so gentle and sweet
But you've got that look so critical
Can't talk to you babe you know I get so weak
Sometimes I think that love is just mythical
Up there's a heaven, down there's a town
Blackness everywhere any little lights shine
Blackness, blackness draggin' me down
Come on light a candle in this heart of mine
Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on this flight tonight
I'm drinkin' sweet champagne got the headphones up high
Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind
They're singin'-"Goodbye baby,
Baby bye-bye,
Ooh! love is blind"
Up go the flaps,down go the wheels
Hope you got your heat turned on baby
Hope they've finally fixed your automobile
Hope it's better when we meet again babe.

Victoria
Victoria, Victoria I could love you for a hundred years
And still want more of ya!
It's been a long time now since high school days
But when I'm with you, darling you still amaze me
No one could ever come before ya
God knows how much I still adore ya
My Victoria, Victoria, I could love you for a hundred years
And still want more of ya!
Hey little girl when we first met
I was shaking so hard you really made me sweat
You opened up my eyes and showed me
You took me by surprise and floored me
We walked to school together
Just a boy and a girl
We talked through all kinds of weather
About giving our love a whirl
Do you remember at the high school dance
When the beach boys sang about good vibrations
My Victoria, Victoria, I could love you for a hundred years
And still want more of ya!
We walked to school together
Just a boy and a girl
We talked through all kinds of weather
About giving our love a whirl
We were cruisin' the strip every Friday night
Headin' for the beach in a two tone torc flight
First time I turned and saw you
God only knows I love you
Never anyone before you
Don't you know I still adore you
My Victoria, Victoria ...
