01. Steal Your Heart Away

I'm going back to the place I was born
With an empty pocket and a suit well worn
All my life I've been short changed
I ain't never found a woman want to take my name

I want some love and I want it now
And I'm going to take it any old how

I want it all, I want it now
I'm going to beg, borrow, steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now
I'll thieve it all, baby, anyhow

I'm going to steal your heart away

God only knows I've paid my dues
Spend most my live living hard time blues
All my nights, baby, all my days
I've been trying to find a woman help me change my ways

I want some love and I want it now
And I'm going to take it any old how

I want it all, I want it now
I'm going to beg, borrow, steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now
I'll thieve it all, baby, anyhow

I'm going to steal your heart away

Now I've found me an angel with a heart of pure gold
A fine looking woman going to soothe my soul
So come on, baby, take me by the hand
We got a first class ticket to the promised land

I want some love and I want it now
And I'm going to take it any old how

I want it all, I want it now
I'm going to beg, borrow, steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now
I'll thieve it all, baby, anyhow

I want it all, I want it now
I'm going to beg, borrow, steal somehow
I want it all, I want it now
I'll thieve it all, baby, anyhow

I'm going to steal your heart away

I want it all, I want it now
I want it all, I want it now
I want it

02. All Out Of Luck

Here I sit a broken hearted man
Lady luck dealt me a losing hand
So what's a man like me to do
I'm still a fool in love with you

I gave you all the love I had to give
And you took away my reason left to live
I feel I'm running out of time
And I just want to make you mine, make you mine

Take me home tonight
Make me feel all right

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind, baby

I gambled with my heart and paid the price
I threw it all away on a roll of the dice
I tried to play the king of hearts
Now I'm the joker, torn apart, ooh, baby

Take me home tonight
Make me feel all right

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind

So here I sit a broken hearted man
Lady luck dealt me a losing hand
So what's a man like me to do
I'm still a fool in love with you, in love with you

Take me home tonight
Make me feel all right

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Drive me out of my mind

All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Clean out of time
All out of luck
Clean out of time

03. Love Will Set You Free

Something in your smile was so inviting
Something in your eyes told me to stay
Something in your touch electrified me
Completing me in every single way

Now I realise, as I look in your eyes
This must be love
Baby, try to understand, my heart is your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free
Set you free

Every time I think about you, baby
Every time I see your smiling face
Every time I feel your loving arms around me
Guilty pleasures take up all my time and space

Now I realise, as I look in your eyes
This must be love
Baby, try to understand, my heart is your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free
Set you free
Set you free, set you free

Now I realise, as I look in your eyes
This must be love
Baby, try to understand, my heart is your hand

Love will set you free
Love will set you free
You can trust in me
My love will set you free
Set you free, set you free

04. Easier Said Than Done

You've got my love to keep you warm
Give you shelter from the storm
Any time you need
Through the long and lonely night
You got me to hold you tight
My love is guaranteed
You're everything I'm waiting for
Now I don't have to look no more

Take me as I'm
I'll do the best I can for your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand when I say
It's easier said than done
Sometimes I swim against the tide
When I know you're by my side
There ain't anything I can't do
Baby my heart's an open book
Anytime you wanna look
Cause it's written just for you
You're everything I'm waiting for
Now I don't have to look no more

Take me as I'm
I'll do the best I can for your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand when I say
It's easier said than done

You're everything I'm waiting for
Now I don't have to look no more
You're everything I want you to be
Baby, baby won't you stay with me

Take me as I'm
I'll do the best I can for your love
It's easier said than done
Take me by the hand
Try to understand when I say
It's easier said than done [repeat]

05. Tell Me How

Every day I want to try
To kiss the tears from your eye
I broke your heart a thousand times
I'm guilty of a thousand crimes

I know you've heard it all before
But I won't hurt you any more
Please forgive me one more time
I'm just about to lose my mind

Don't leave me all alone
I can't make it on my own

Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love

Every night and every day
I get down on my knees and pray
I never meant to break your heart
Girl, it's tearing me apart

Baby, tell me how to make you stay
'Cause I can't let you walk away
Babe, I know I'll go insane
If you won't take me back again, take me back again

Don't leave me all alone
I can't make it on my own

Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Can I win your love

Baby, baby, don't leave me
Baby, baby, you hear me crying

Every day I want to try
To kiss the tears from your eye
I broke your heart a thousand times
I'm guilty of a thousand crimes, baby, a thousand crimes

No more fooling 'round
I'll never let you down
Don't leave me all alone
I can't make it on my own

Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Tell me how can I win your love
Can I win your love

06. I Need You (Shine A Light)

07. One Of These Days

I've been thinking about the good times
Gathering souvenirs
Of the days when we were one
Before the love was gone...
Those uncomfortable compromises
Always ending in bitter tears
Taking the love away
Leaving nothing more to say...

But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave it all behind me
One of these days...

A string of broken promises
An eternity of pain
Making enemies of desire
Suffocating all the fire...
But, still I miss your sweet breath
Your kisses on my face
& tho' the love is gone
The memory lingers on...

But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave it all behind me
One of these days

But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave the past behind me
One of these days

You know love has always been
The Queen of Mystery

Broken hearts & bitter tears
Will be the death of me...

One of these days...

But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave it all behind me
One of these days...
But, it's alright
I'll be there one of these days...
& leave the past behind me
One of these days...

08. Love And Treat Me Right

I get high when I'm feeling low
Just thinking about the things you do
I don't mind playing your nasty games
As long as I can be with you

I'm your loving man
Give you love every day
You're my lover

Come on, baby, take me home tonight
Come on, baby, make me feel all right
Come on, baby, take me home with you tonight
Love and treat me right

Lord above, I'm a slave to love
And, baby, you can do no wrong
I'll be your monkey man, I'll be your dog
Howling for you all night long

I'm your loving man
Give you love every day
You're my lover

Come on, baby, take me home tonight
Come on, baby, make me feel all right
Come on, baby, take me home with you tonight
Love and treat me right
Treat me right

Come on, baby, take me home tonight
Come on, baby, make me feel all right
Come on, baby, take me home with you tonight
Love and treat me right

Come on, baby, take me home tonight
Treat me right
Come on, baby, make me feel all right
Feel all right
Come on, baby, take me home with you tonight
Love and treat me right
Come on and treat me right

Come on, baby, take me home tonight
Come on, baby, make me feel all right
Come on, baby, take me home with you tonight
Love and treat me right

09. Dogs In The Street

I get up, I hang around
Biding my time till the sun goes down
The city sweats with neon heat
I feel the rush when I hit the streets

You and me
My night queen
We're like fire and gasoline

So come on, girl, this gun's for hire
Fully loaded just for you

And we howl, like dogs in the street
And we love, like dogs in the street
Dogs in the street

Sugar sweet, so fine
I get mean things on my mind
You're the best I've ever seen
You make love like a wrecking machine

So come on, girl, this gun's for hire
Fully loaded just for you

And we howl, like dogs in the street
And we love, like dogs in the street
Dogs in the street

And we howl, like dogs in the street
And we love, like dogs in the street

Dogs in the street
Howling in the moonlight
Dogs in the street
With my blue jean queen
Dogs in the street
Heating up the cold night
Dogs in the street
We're fire and gasoline

Dogs in the street
Dogs in the street
Dogs in the street
Dogs in the street

And we howl
And we howl
Like dogs in the street

10. Fare Thee Well

There's a cold wind blowing across my heart
Feels like forever since we've been apart
It's so hard, baby, I don't know where to begin

I've been so lucky in this life of mine
The best of both worlds most of the time
But now I know it's time for me to go

Fare thee well, I'll soon be gone
Fare thee well, back where I belong

We had out moments, our days in the sun
But now it's time I should be moving on
But you'll be in my heart, wherever I go

Fare thee well, I'll soon be gone
Fare thee well, back where I belong

I'm on my way, I'm going home
My bags are packed and I'm ready to roll
I'm going home, don't you cry
Let's have a drink before we say goodbye

I'm going home
Going home

All the love we've shared for years
Enough to make a heart break
All the joy and all the tears
Take me back where I belong

Fare thee well, I'll soon be gone
Fare thee well, back where I belong

I'm going home
Going home

I'm on my way, I'm going home
My bags are packed and I'm ready to roll
I'm going home, don't you cry
Let's have a drink before we say goodbye

I'm on my way, I'm going home
My bags are packed and I'm ready to roll
I'm going home, don't you cry
Let's have a drink before we say goodbye

I'm going home
Going home

11. Whipping Boy Blues

I'm crazy 'bout you, baby
it's you that I adore
You keep me riding all night long
Till I can't ride no more
You're insatiable
Anyone can see
I'm going to need a doctor
When you get through with me

I'm crazy 'bout you, baby
Though your heart's as black as coal
I feel the burning deep inside
Your fire down below
You're insatiable
Ain't that the truth
I gave you all my sugar
You got such a sweet tooth

I may be crazy 'bout you, baby
It's you that I adore
I'm crazy 'bout the things you do
But I won't be your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
I won't be your whipping boy

I'm crazy 'bout you, baby
You really know the score
Over, under, sideways, down
Till I'm crawling on the floor
You're insatiable
You won't let me be
You locked me deep inside your heart
And you threw away the key

I may be crazy 'bout you, baby
It's you that I adore
I'm crazy 'bout the things you do
But I won't be your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
I won't be your whipping boy

Said I'm crazy 'bout you, baby
it's you that I adore
You keep me riding all night long
Till I can't ride no more
You're insatiable
Ain't that the truth
I gave you all my sugar
You got such a sweet tooth

I may be crazy 'bout you, baby
It's you that I adore
I'm crazy 'bout the things you do
But I won't be your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
I won't be your whipping boy no more

Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
I won't be your
Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more
Your whipping boy no more

12. My Evil Ways

I was born my mother's son
When I hit the ground I was on the run
All my life I've played the fool
I've been breaking hearts and breaking rules...

[Chorus]
I can't change my evil ways
You can't change my evil ways
No matter what the Good Book says
I can't change my evil ways no more,
No more, evil ways... my evil ways

I've been accused of hit and run
But all the same I have my fun
Don't turn your back when I'm with you
Cuz I'll steal your chickens and your sister too

[Chorus]
I can't change my evil ways
You can't change my evil ways
No matter what the Good Book says
I can't change my evil ways no more,
No more, evil ways... my evil ways

I was born my mother's son
Since I could crawl I been having fun
Now I've been poor and I've been rich
But I've always been a son-of-a-bitch

[Chorus]
I can't change my evil ways
You can't change my evil ways
No matter what the Good Book says
I can't change my evil ways no more,
No more, evil ways... my evil ways
My evil ways
Evil ways
Evil ways

13. Forevermore

Looking back across the years
The good times and the bad
An echo in my mind

Whisper on a breeze
Sweet and bitter memories
Of all I left behind

If it wasn't for your love
Don't know where I'd be
Don't know what I'd do

Time and time again
Sing the same refrain
All because of you

For you will be my love
And I will feel your heartbeat
Forevermore

Rest here in my arms
Forevermore

Forevermore

Through the dark night of my soul
You gave me a hand to hold
And help me make it through

Now all my darks and my fears
Held inside for all those years
Dissapear when I'm with you

For you will be my love
And I will feel your heartbeat
Forevermore

Rest here in my arms

Give me all your love
Give me all your love
And I'll be in your loving arms
Forevermore

For you will be my love
And I will feel your heartbeat
Forevermore

Rest here in my arms

Give me all your love
Give me all your love
And I'll be in your loving arms
Give me all your love

Give me all your love
Give me all your love
And I'll be in your loving arms
Give me all your love

Forevermore
Forevermore
Forevermore

Forevermore
Forevermore
Forevermore
