Some like this and some like that
And some don't know where it's at
If you don't get loose, if you don't groove
Well, your motor won't make it and your motor won't move
If time don't tell you then don't ask me
I'm riding on a hurricane down to the sea
If you can't hear the music, turn it up loud
There's movement in the air and movement in the crowd
Bow-legged woman doing the...

Thirty days have September
In a jailhouse I remember
Well, I got caught with too much soul
Bringing it back from Mexico
Bringing it back from Mexico
Spanish lights and pretty faces
Trip you out to where the place is
Load you ub and let you go
Brining it back from Mexico
Bringing it back from Mexico
Across the border is where you'll get her
And when it's good there ain't no better
I ...

Call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
Well now, they call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I don't carry me no load
Ain't no change in the weather
Ain't no changes in me
Well, there ain't no change in the weather
Ain't no changes in me
And I ain't hidin' from nobody
Nobody's hidin' from me
Oh, that's the way its supposed to be
Well, I got tha...

Somebody call for the doctor, I think I'm sick
Ain't had my medicine in over a week
My mind's fine but my body feels weak
Call the doctor, I think I'm sick
A shady lady took all my bread
Ravished my body, Lord, and messed with my head
I don't know but I've had my fill
Call the doctor and tell him I'm ill
My money's gone and I've got no place to go
I don't believe I've ever felt so lo...

Clyde plays electric bass
Plays it with finesse and grace
Sit on the porch without no shoes
A-picking the bass and singing the blues
Misery loves company
And his old dog sings harmony
Tambourine tied to his tail
You can hear him moan, you can hear him wail
Jody May, she got a dollar
Down the road you can hear her holler
"Get up Clyde, we got something to do
That old dog c...

Crazy mama, where you been so long?
Crazy mama, where you been so long?
You've been hiding out, I know that's true
Crazy mama, I sure need you
Crazy mama, where you been so long?
Standing on the corner, looking for you, babe
Standing on the corner, looking for you, babe
Lord have mercy, can I see
That crazy mama coming back to me?
Crazy mama, where you been so long?

It ain't easy drying these crying eyes of mine
It ain't easy drying these crying eyes of mine
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely
It ain't easy drying these crying eyes of mine
What can you do when those tears make you blind?
What can you do when those tears make you blind?
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely
What can you do with these crying eyes of mine?
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely

Danger is out into the night
Danger she's such a pretty sight
She was treated so badly it seems, now she's looking for a dream
Danger is out into the night
Danger she walks the streets alone
Danger all the bars she has to know
All the men that look her way could be hers hers today
Danger is out into the night
Locked into a love affair didn't seem to go nowhere
With no choice...

Well I feel like I'm running down a dead end road
Yes I feel like I'm running down a dead end road
I need some someone to tell me which way I ought to go
Say good by to the morning hello weekend time
Say good bye to the morning down the road I am flying
If I look way beyond me I'll be getting way behind
I can't seem to catch up distance keeps falling away
I can't seem to cat...
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning
Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, i tell you no lie
Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it
When old man trouble knocks on your door
Don't give him no key, he just wants more
He'll turn your life to misery
Kick you down, just like me
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, it'll ...

If I'm standing in a crowd
Call my name, call it loud
Don't go to strangers
Woman, call on me
Wave your arms in the air
Let me know that you're there
When in doubt
Oh woman, call on me
Don't leave me here to rust
Don't let me turn to dust
Oh, woman
When in doubt, call on me
If I'm standing in a crowd
Call my name, call it loud
Don't go to strangers
Woman, call on me
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
There is nothing you can show me
That I haven't seen before
I've got time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Time to kill
Keeping to myself inside this room
Over forty years of fridays
You would give up trying too
Hard to thrill
Nothing really moves me anymore
I'm hardly thrilled
Nothing reall...

Well my heads in Georgia but my feet are California bound
Well my heads in Georgia but my feet is California bound

Cause that good looking woman is tired of these old Georgia hills

If you need a woman, in bed with you
Tell her in front, what you can do
It's easy
Easy as pie
You don't have to BS her, you don't have to lie
If you play the guitar, it won't be long, you'll be writin'
And singin' them songs
It's easy
Easy you bet
You'll be big, if you don't quit
If you feel kinda lonesome, no friends in sight
Get yourself a dog, it will be all right
Get yourse...

Well I met this old woman
She was hard as nails
I think she just come out of the
County jail
Would I loan her some money
Just to pay her rent
If I would she would put me
In her
Last Will and Testament
Well I've got lots of children
An ex-wife or two
I never hear from them
'til the bills are due
The money I gave them
They already spent
If I could just help 'em out
They would ...

Whippoorwill's singing
Soft summer breeze
Makes me think of my baby
I left down in New Orleans
I left down in New Orleans
Magnolia, you sweet thing
You're driving me mad
Got to get back to you, babe
You're the best I ever had
You're the best I ever had
You whisper "Good morning"
So gently in my ear
I'm coming home to you, babe
I'll soon be there
I'll soon be there
Magnolia, you sweet...

I've been asking some people
If they remember the girl, if they've forgotten, round as a cotton
A dress, have you seen her, if she's much leaner
Yes she is missing is true
She has gone out there somewhere
Disappeared into thin air
I would just like to find her
I would like to remind her - the good times we had there
More than just good friends
Yes she is missing is true
I've...

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
No way to relieve
This feeling inside
You done gave me them blues
And then you took a ride
Left me with nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Shame, oh shame
On what you do
Can't you see that
I, I, I, been feeling so blue?
Cast a spell on me
Then you took a ride
Left me with nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Pardon me
If I sound so sad
I can't get to you
When I w...
I sure do miss you babe
You know it's been a while
Way too long since you been gone
I'm almost out of style
You treat me kind and gentle
You're always on my mind
A love that's true I keep for you
Until the end of time
Someday you've got to come back
Stay with me a while
I'll take some time to make you mine
And keep you out of style

Floatin' down that old river boy, all my worries far behind,
Floatin' down that old river boy, leave old memories way behind,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',
All my life, I've been waitin', for this time.
Floatin' down that old river boy, leaves me feelin' good inside,
Floatin' down that old river boy, tryin' to get to the other side,
Yesterday is slowly fadin',

Well, the river runs deep
And the water is cold as ice
The river runs deep
And the water is cold as ice
I go down there every chance I get
It's where my baby she met her death
And the river runs deep
And the water's cold as ice
Ain't no woman
Gonna make a fool out of me
Ain't no woman
Gonna make a fool out of me
Running 'round, that's what they said

I'm getting tired of runnin' around,
Think I will marry and settle down
This ole night life,
This ole Sportin' Life, it's killin' me
I got a letter from my home,
All of my friends, they're dead an'gone
It'll make you worry,
It'll make you wonder, 'bout days to come
My mother used to talk to me,
I was young and foolish, and could not see
Now, I have no mother,
My sisters and ...
When this world got to feel low
I don't need nowhere else to go
as I get all the love I need
from three little girls
In the garden collecting snails,
on the bed reading fairy-tales,
I get all I'll ever need
from three little girls
As all my world was sad and weary
all my days were winding up,
then you showed me a better way,
my three little girls
Lord, you put me to the test
and let me through...
Well, I woke up this morning, it was drizzling rain.
Around the bend came a passenger train.
Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan.
Jimmy, he's dead, he's been a long time gone,
Been a long time gone, a long time gone.
If you want to get to heaven, gotta D-I-E

When this war is over it will be a better day
When this war is over it will be a better day
But it won't bring back those poor boys in the grave
Ain't no sense in the action, killing people all the time
Ain't no sense no the action, killing people all the time
When it happen on the street we call that a crime
These old boys are leading us somewhere - that is plain to see

It don't take no fool to love you
You stand out in any crowd
And I know men who want to own you
I can hear them talking loud
There ain't no point in just me talking
Who am I telling you?
But you don't got yourself together
And you can bet whithin in you
I just realised
I just realised
Who am I telling you?
You never lose, you are a winner
It's a simple thing for you

Woman I love
Ain't much more than skin and bone
Woman I love
Ain't much more than skin and bone
If she ain't round the house
Out of the door, daddy no more
Woman I love
Ain't much more than skin and bone
Treat me right, oh no no, can't complain
Treat me right, oh no, can't complain
She got to be nice, she got me hypnotized
Treat me right, oh no, can't complain
