Get It Yourself

See that rock
Up on the shelf
You want that rock
You got to get it yourself
See that rock
Up on the shelf
Well there’s been a lot of talk
About the family of man
Well brother let me tall you
‘Bout the new family plan
See that rock
You got to get it
That’s right
You got to get it your self

See that roll
Up on the table
You want that role
You better get it while you’re able
See that roll
Up on the table
Well lots of folks are hungry
That ain’t nothing new
Lot’s of folks
Are hungrier than you
See that roll
You got to get it
That’s right
You got to get it yourself

Talking about rock and roll that is

‘Cause Jim Dandy to the rescue
He ain’t gonna come
Space Cowboy
He never was
The gangster of love ain’t gonna see about you
‘Cause it’s every man for himself
And every woman too

See that star
Up in the sky
You wanna be that star
You better learn how to fly
See that star
Up in the sky
Get your arms to flappin’
Get your beak into the wind
Learn to fly
With that million dollar grin
See that star
You got to get it
That’s right
You got to get it yourself

Be Nice

You got to be nice to the people on the way up
You’re gonna see them on the way back down
Be nice to the people on the way up
You’re gonna need them when no one’s around
Be nice to your sister and your momma too
They’re the only girls will love a fool like you
You got to be nice to the people on the way up
You’re gonna see them on the way back down

Be nice to the man on the corner, the man down the block
They might be the dudes got the key to your lock
You got to be nice to the people on the way up
You’re gonna see them on the way back down
I mean
Your ship is bound to run aground
You know
You’re lost when you just can’t be found
Be nice

Song For a Sucker Like You

They got a song for winners
They got a song for those who lose
They got a song for dealers
They got a song for those who use
They got a song for beggars
They got a song for those who chose
But baby
They don’t have a song for a sucker like you

What’s that you’re saying
That you have been misunderstood
You want to take the time to clear it up
Matter of fact, I wish you would
And if it’s a real long story, take your time
You can’t make it good make it true
Baby, they don’t have a song for a sucker like you

Well you got your doctor
He’s gonna tell you how you feel
You got yourself a lawyer
She’s gonna show you how to steal
Now you want a musician
To make your dreams come true
Baby, they don’t have a song for a sucker like you

Broad Daylight

I got to thinking about that girl last night
About how she kisses me and holds me tight
She does me good but why won’t she do me right
I’m not complaining and I don’t wanna fight
You are the only girl for me but girl
You only want to see me at night
What’s wrong with getting it in the broad daylight

For example I said “Baby how about some afternoon delight”
You said, “I’d like to but my schedule is a little tight
But how about later, ‘round about midnight or one”
I’m not complaining I’m just talking about fun
You are the only girl for me but girl
You only want to see me at night
What’s wrong with doing it in the broad daylight

When the curtain falls
And when the night owl calls
Then you and I can be the best of friends
But at the break of day
Girl you turn your face away
And that’s when all of the good times end
You are the only girl for me but girl
You only want to see me at night
What’s wrong with doing it in the broad daylight

Your good love gives me such a thrill
Gets me hot down in a spot till I can not sit still
But when you put the fire out why you wanna shout
“Oh look at the time”
And then you’re gone before the sun can shine
You are the only girl for me but girl
You only want to see me at night
What’s wrong with doing it in the broad daylight

Was it something I said
Or something I didn’t say

One Way Grave

Looking back over the last few years
I believe there’s something big that you missed
You been working real hard in the field and the yard
But you’re picking cotton trying to exist
I think you serve the wrong master
But you’re dressing so clean you don’t
Know what I mean by a slave
You better change your mind 
You’re gonna stumble blind
Into that one way grave
One way grave

Talking to your friends is like
Talking to the wall and
The whole house is ‘bout to fall down
But you’re having a party
Your life’s a catered affair
Ain’t no square in the social go round
Got to spin your wheels faster
Down in that hole ain’t nothing but cold cold clay
You better change your mind 
You’re gonna stumble blind
Into that one way grave
One way grave

Mind over matter baby hand over fist
We all gotta make our own way
The road is unwinding with many a twist
Ain’t no road map to that brighter day
You got slow down or go down
Down in that hole ain’t nothing but cold cold clay
You better change your mind 
You’re gonna stumble blind
Into that one way grave
One way grave

See You on the Other Side

Everybody wants to be a star
Don’t care where they’re going
But they want to go far
I can’t go with you
But you can drive my car
And I’ll see you on the other side

You want to run for office
You want to cut a hit
You really want to be in pictures
Ain’t that it
I can’t vote for you
But when you quit
I’ll see you on the other side

Sometime in the name of justice
Sometime in the name of soul
One time he wants to bust us
The next minute he’s got a goal in life
A golden dream
To help us across life’s stream

And all we gotta do is
Support his habit for fame and success
Let him grab it and he’ll straighten this mess
Well he can have it
I confess
I’ll see you on the other side

Set Yourself Free

I know you’re a little tired of my touch
I can’t help myself
If I love you a little too much
But when you feel like I feel
Boy you got to set yourself free

I know sometimes I might act a little strange
Forgive me girl you know
I tried and tried to change
But when you feel like I feel
Boy you got to set yourself free

Yes and I know I act a little wild
Can’t help myself, just like a child
But when you feel like I feel
Boy you got to set yourself free
Don’t worry about me
Feel like I feel
Got to set yourself free

Nobody’s Fool

Pick me up or put me down
But don’t go dragging my love around
Like some kind of toy
I ain’t your boy
And you ain’t nobody’s fool

Ain’t that right, I work all night
And you act like I’ve been fooling around
You’ve got your nerve
What you deserve
Is a ten pound bundle of joy

I am going through the motions
Of drowning in the oceans of love
Everyday
But just between us baby
I think it’s time that maybe
My push has come to your shove

How I feel, let’s make a deal
You take the pedals and I’ll take the wheel
Move down the road
You can’t keep this load
And you ain’t nobody’s fool
You’ll the right thing
You ain’t nobody’s fool

 

 

Charlie’s Blues

Sometimes I feel like a fool with him money
I don’t wanna hold on I got nothing to lose
Oh boy, talk about your good time
Charlie’s blues
Talk about your good times

My wife threw me out ‘cause I was running around
So I went to the race track and there I lost my shoes
Oh boy, talk about your good time
Charlie’s blues
Talk about your good times

Charlie he’s the man of the hour
Maybe he’s a man of the day
But if you want a man with a long term plan
He’s got to run ‘cause he’s got nothing to say
He’s got

Lightning racing up and down his spine
He’s nobody’s baby, he don’t have to chose
Oh boy, talk about your good times
Oh boy, talk about your bad times
Oh boy, talk about Charlie’s blues
