02. Jump
Ow!
I get up, and nothin' gets me down You got it tough, I've seen the toughest around And I know, baby, just how you feel You got to roll with the punches and get to what's real Ah, can't ya see me standin' here I got my back against the record machine I ain't the worst that you've seen Ah, can't ya see what I mean? Ah, might as well jump. Jump! Might as well jump Go ahead an' jump. Jump! Go ahead and jump Ow-oh! Hey, you! Who said that? Baby, how you been? You say you don't know, you won't know until you begin So can't ya see me standing here I got my back against the record machine I ain't the worst that you've seen Ah, can't ya see what I mean? Ah, might as well jump. Jump! Go ahead and jump Might as well jump. Jump! Go ahead and jump Jump! Might as well jump. Jump! Go ahead and jump Get it in, jump. Jump! Go ahead and jump Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! 03. Panama
Uh!
Oh yeah! Ah-huh! Jump back, what's that sound? Here she comes, full blast and top down Hot shoe, burnin' down the avenue Model citizen, zero discipline Don't ya know she's coming home with me You'll lose her in that turn I'll get her! Panama, Panama Panama, Panama Ain't nothin' like it, her shiny machine Got the feel for the wheel, keep the movin' parts clean Hot shoe, burnin' down the avenue Got an on-ramp comin' through my bedroom Don't you know she's coming home with me You'll lose her in that turn I'll get her Uh-oh! Panama, Panama. Wow! Panama, Panama oh-oh-oh-oh Woo! Yeah, we're runnin' a little bit hot tonight I can barely see the road from the heat comin' off You know what I'm sayin' Ahh, you reach down put it between my legs n' ease the seat back She's runnin', I'm flyin' Right behind in the rearview mirror now Got the fearin', power steerin' Pistons poppin', ain't no stoppin' now Panama, Panama Panama, Panama oh-oh-oh-oh Panama, Panama oh-oh-oh-oh Panama 04. Top Jimmy

You've got me captured
I'm under your spell I guess I'll never learn I have your picture Yes I know it well Another page is turned Are you for real? It's so hard to tell From just a magazine Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells Look what that does to me I'll wait 'Til your love comes down I'm coming straight for your heart No way You can stop me now As fine as you are I wrote a letter And told her these words That meant a lot to me I never sent it She wouldn't have heard Her eyes don't follow me And while she watches I can never be free Such good photography I'll wait 'Til your love comes down I'm coming straight for your heart No way You can stop me now As fine as you are (Guitar Solo) You can't imagine What your image means The pages come alive Your magic free To everyone who reads Heartbreakin' motor drive Are you for real? It's so hard to tell From just a magazine Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells Look what that does to me I'll wait 'Til your love comes down I'm coming straight for your heart No way You can stop me now As fine as you are I'll wait 'Til your love comes down I'm coming straight for your heart No way You can stop me now As fine as you are I'll wait 08. Girl Gone Bad

'Cause I only tie you up I always loved you tender But you only like it rough Woman bound for glory Why you leavin' me again? Gonna pack her bags and leave This house of pain Heartache's all around me How many times we've tried Said she tried to leave me But her hands were always tied If I had it all to do I'd keep it just the same Gonna fix it so you never leave This house of pain Uh-uh. Uh-uh Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh Uh-uh. Uh-uh Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh-Wow! |
