1.   Baby I'm a dreamer, found my horse and carriage

2.   Seven come eleven or blackjack
     Gambling night and day

3.   Look at the sign, we're in the wrong place
     Let's move out boys and get ready to race

4.   Rebel souls, deserters we are called
     Chose a gun and threw away the song

5.   Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

6.   I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert
     But I can live and breathe and see the sun in wintertime

7.   The world is full of Kings and Queens
     Who blind your eyes, then steal your dreams

8.   Get down today
     We'll pick you up and take you away

9.   I'm glad you made it, I can't complain
     Oh Jackie, what took you so long?

10.  Searching for something to say
     Waiting for the break of day

11.  I scream my heart out just to make a dime
     And with that dime I bought you love
     But now I've changed my mind

12.  Wish I was back on the bayou
     Rollin' with some Cajun queen

13.  I love it, I need it, I bleed it
     Yeah it's a mad hurricane     

14.  Oh you're like a candle, the flame's slowly fading
     Burning out and burning me

15.  We'll know for the first time
     If we're evil or divine

16.  We gotta install microwave ovens, 
     Custom kitchen deliveries

17.  He took me by the hand, led me far from this land

18.  You see it's all clear
     You were meant to be here

19.  Well I can't wait till I move to the city
     Till I finally make up my mind to learn design

20.  Speed increasing 
     All control is in the hands of those who know

21.  Fifty foot long and a two ton anchor

22.  If we had a president that did just what he said
     The country would be just alright, and no one would be dead
     From fightin' in a war that causes big men to get rich
     There's money in them war machines, now ain't this a bitch?

23.  Don't come a knockin' around my door
     Don't wanna see your shadow no more

24.  Bring a good feelin' ain't had in such a long time
     Save my life I'm goin' down for the last time

25.  What set you free and brought you to me, babe?
     What set you free?  I need you here by me

26.  It ain't no use, we're headed for disaster
     Our minds say no but our hearts are talkin' faster

27.  Look to the summer of '75
     All the world is gonna come alive

28.  A couple of the sounds that I really like
     Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike

29.  Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to lose

30.  I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
     Don't think I'm ever gonna make it home again

31.  On a stormy sea of moving emotion
     Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean

32.  A way way down inside, I'm gonna give ya my love

33.  She's hot and cold
     She's got it all, hot loving every night

34.  Workin' so hard baby, workin' all night and day
     Times I feel like gettin' blind and jumpin' in the bay

35.  You should have seen me with the poker man
     I had a honey and I bet a grand

36.  I only like dreaming, all the day long
     And no-one is screaming

37.  Never cared for what they do 
     Never cared for what they know; but I know

38.  If you want the wind of change to blow about you
     And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me

39.  If this is heaven then I'm in hell
     If trust is misfortune then wish me well

40.  You're drivin' home in a down pour
     Can't wait for you to walk through the door

41.  You can shake me up
     Or I can bring you down
     We can make each other happy

42.  It's a madhouse; I can hardly get next to myself

43.  Took the heart of a lonely man
     I hoped you would stay, but now you've gone away

44.  It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
     I had the radio on, I was drivin'

45.  The one regret, you will never forget
     There'll be no sleep in here tonight

46.  Why am I up here?  What do they see in me?
     Must be one thousand other places to be

47.  Our so-called leaders speak, with words they try to jail you
     They subjugate the meek, but it's the rhetoric of failure

48.  Your mamma and your Daddy gonna Plague me till I die
     Why can't they understand I'm just a Peace lovin' guy?

49.  She's creepin' like a hungry cat
     I've seen it before, I know it can mean that

50.  Well I can't be bothered with sorrow
     And I can't be bothered with hate
     I'm using up my time for feelin' fine everyday

51.  Well it's comin' together, I finally feel like a man
     I never thought that I'd be where I am

52.  And though I wear a shirt and tie
     I'm still part redman deep inside

53.  I was raised by a toothless bitty hag

54.  She's a vision from coast to coast, sea to shining sea

55.  Those who wish to be must put aside the alienation
     Get on with the fascination

56.  I've just got to get it through to you 
     That my lovin' heart is ever true
     Just come back to where you belong
     Girl you got to know I'll never do you wrong

57.  Big, round, black and white
     I feel the pull, I see the light

58.  My heart's in pain, I need you so
     My love's insane, so please don't go

59.  I know I'm gonna miss the USA
     I guess I'll miss it every single day 
     But no one loves me here anyway

60.  Rock me, sock me, baby you got me ridin' to the end
     Rake me, shake me, baby you make me, turn me on again

61.  After all the things we've done and seen you find another man
     The things you think are useless I can't understand

62.  Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
     Let the sound take you away

63.  Well it's true, just take a look
     The cover sometimes makes the book

64.  When you look through the years
     And see what you could have been
     Oh what you might have been if you'd had more time

65.  Call me a saint, that's what I ain't
     Inside my head, maybe I'd feel better dead

66.  Every moment of your lifetime, every minute, every day

67.  Cold wind blows 
     The gods look down in anger on this poor child

68.  And I want to be with you, be with you night and day

69.  Somewhere along the lonely road I had tried to find you

70.  Does it feel the same when he calls your name?
     And does it feel the same when you play the game of love?

71.  Turns you from hunted into hunter
     Go and hunt somebody down

72.  You've got me flippin' like a flag on a pole
     Come on sugar let the good times roll

73.  And you know it's gettin' stronger
     Can't last very much longer

74.  You don't have to play
     You can follow or lead the way

75.  We'll be waiting for the night 
     We'll be waiting for the night to come

76.  I like to work it down low I like to work it through the top
     And when it starts to rockin' I never wanna stop
