Lay Your Hands On Me
If you're ready, I'm willing and able
Help me lay my cards out on the table
You're mine and I'm yours for the taking
Right now the rules we made
Are meant for breaking
What you get ain't always
What you see
But satisfaction's guaranteed
They say what you give is always
What you need
So if you want me to
Lay my hands on you
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
I'm a fighter, I'm a poet
I'm a preacher
I've been to school and
Baby, I've been the teacher
If you show me how to get
Up off the ground
I can show you
How to fly and never
Ever come back down
Everything you want
Is what I need
Satisfaction guaranteed
But the ride don't never ever
Come for free
If you want me to lay
My hands on you
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Solo
Don't you know I only aim to please
If you want me to lay
My hands on you
Lay your hands on me
Bad Medicine
I ain't got a fever
Got a permanent disease
It'll take more than a doctor
To prescribe a remedy
I got lots of money
But it isn't what I need
Gonna take more than a shot
To get this poison out of me
I got all the symptoms
Count 'em 1, 2, 3
First you need
That's what you get for
Falling in love
Then you bleed
You get a little but it's
Never enough
On your knees
That's what you get for falling
In love
And now this boy's addicted
Cause your kiss is the drug
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor that can
Cure my disease
I don't need no needle
To be giving me a thrill
And I don't need no anesthesia
Or a nurse to bring a pill
I got a dirty down addiction
It doesn't leave a track
I got a jones for your affection
Like a monkey on my back
There ain't no paramedic
Gonna save this heart attack
When you need
That's what you get for falling
In love
Then you bleed
You get a little but it's
Never enough
On your knees
That's what you get for falling
In love
Now I'm addicted and your
Kiss is the drug
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up just like
Bad medicine
So let's play doctor, baby
Cure my disease
Bad, bad medicine
Bad, bad medicine
I need a respirator
Cause I'm running out of breath
You're an all night generator
Wrapped in stockings and a dress
When you find your medicine
You take what you can get
Cause if there's something better
Baby well
They haven't found it yet
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor that
Can cure my disease
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Shake it up, just like bad medicine
Your love's the potion that
Can cure my disease
Born To Be My Baby
Rainy night and we worked all day
We both got jobs cause there's
Bills to play
We got something they can't
Take away
Our love, our lives
Close the door, leave the cold outside
I don't need nothing when I'm by your side
We got something that'll never die
Our dreams, our pride
My heart beats like a drum (all night)
Flesh to flesh, one to one
And it's alright
And I'll never let go cause
There's something I know deep inside
You were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know
Where we stand
Only God would know the reasons
But I bet he must have had
A plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
Light a candle, blow the world away
Table for two on a TV tray
It ain't fancy, baby that's okay
Our time, our way
So hold me close
Better hang on tight
Buckle up, baby, it's a bumpy ride
We're two kids hitching down
The road of life
Our world, our fight
If we stand side by side (all night)
There's a chance we'll get by (and it's alright)
And I'll know that you'll be
In my heart till the day I die
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know
Where we stand
Only God would know the reason
But I bet he must have
Had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
My heart beats like a drum
All night
Flesh to flesh, one to one
And it's alright
And I'll never let go cause
There's something I know deep inside
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
We got something to believe in
Even if we don't know
Where we stand
Only God would know the reason
But I bet he must have
Had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
You were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be
Your man
Living In Sin
I don't no license
To sign on no line
And I don't need no preacher
To tell me you're mine
I don't need no diamonds
I don't need no new bride
I just need you, baby
To look me in the eye
I know they have a hand time
And your Daddy don't approve
But I don't need your Daddy
Telling us what we should do
Now there's a million questions
I could ask about our lives
But I only need one answer
To get me through the night
So I say
Baby, can you tell me
Just where we fit in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
Is it you and me
Or just this world we live in
I say we're living on love
They say we're living in sin
Is it right for both our parents
Who fight it out most nights
Then pray for God's forgiveness
When they both turn out the lights
Or wear that ring of diamonds
When your heart is made of stone
You can talk but still say nothing
You stay together but alone
Or is it right to hold you
And kiss your lips goodnight
They say the promise is forever
If you sign it on the dotted line
Baby, can you tell me just
Where we fit in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
Is it you and me or
Just this world we live in
I say we're living on love
They say we're living in sin
Solo
Baby, can you tell me
Just where we fit in
I call it love
They call it living in sin
Is it you and me or
Just this world we live in
I say we're living on love
They say we're living in sin
Living in sin
I don't know where to begin
I don't know where we fit in
Living in sin
Blood On Blood
I can still remember
When I was just a kid
When friends were friends forever
And what you said was what
You did
Well, it was me and Danny and Bobby
We cut each other's hands
And held tight to a promise
Only brothers understand
But we were so young (so young)
One for all and all for one
Just as sure as the river's
Gonna run
Blood on blood
One on one
We'd still be standing
When all was said and done
Blood on blood
One on one
And I'll be here for you
Till Kingdom come
Blood on blood
Well, Bobby was our hero
Cause he had a fake I.D.
I got busted stealing cigarettes
And he took the rap for me
Danny knew this white trash girl
We each threw in a ten
She took us to this cheap motel
And turned us into men
We were so young (so young)
One for all and all for one
Just as sure as the river's
Gonna run
Blood on blood
One on one
We'd still be standing
When all is said and done
Blood on blood
One on one
And I'll be here for you
Till Kingdom come
Blood on blood
Solo
Now Bobby, he's an uptown lawyer
Danny, he's a medicine man
And me, I'm just the singer
In a long haired rock'n'roll band
Through the years and miles between us
It's been a long and lonely ride
But if I got a call in the
Dead of the night
I'd be right by your side
Blood on blood
Blood on blood
Blood on blood
One on one
We'd still be standing
When all is said and done
Blood on blood
One on one
And I'll be here for you
Till Kingdom come
Blood on blood
Homebound Train
When I was just a boy
The devil took my hand
Took me from my home
He made me a man
So, don't talk to me about sympathy now
Cause you can't dance if you
Take a chance on your rosary
I'm going down, down, down
Down, down
On that homebound train
It's been a million years
That I been gone
I been everywhere, now I'm heading home
Been a lot of girls, but
There's a woman I know
Said don't take no plane
Better take a train
Cause I like it real slow
All the way back home
On the homebound train
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
On a homebound train
Solo
I'm on my way
I'm heading home
To be with my baby
Where I belong
Coming down the tracks
See, I done my time
I'm going back
To that home of mine
Well, here I come baby
Here I come baby
Here I come baby
All the way back home
On that homebound train
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
On that homebound train
Wild Is The Wind
I tried to make you happy
You know I tried so hard to be
What you hoped that I would be
I gave you what wanted
God couldn't give you what you need
You wanted more from me
Than I could ever be
You wanted heart and soul
But you didn't know, baby
Wild, wild is the wind
That takes me away from you
Cold is the night without your love
To see me through
Wild, wild is the wind
That blows through my heart
Wild is the wind, wild is the wind
You got to understand, baby
Wild is the wind
You need someone to hold you
Somebody to be there night and day
Someone to kiss your fears away
I just went on pretending
Too weak, too proud, too tough to say
I couldn't be the one
To make your dreams come true
That's why I had to run
Though I needed you, baby
Wild, wild is the wind
That takes me away from you
Cold is the night without your love
To see me through
Wild, wild is the wind
That blows through my heart tonight
That tears us apart
Wild is the wind, wild is the wind
You got to understand, baby
Wild is the wind
Solo
Maybe a better man
Would live and die for you
Baby, a better man would
Never say goodbye to you
Wild, wild is the wind
That takes me away from you
Cold is the night without your love
To see me through
Wild, wild is the wind
That blows through my heart tonight
That tears us apart
Wild is the wind, wild is the wind
You got to understand, baby
Wild is the wind
Ride Cowboy Ride
Ride cowboy ride
Through the back door to heaven
To the other side
I wanna know the danger of a kiss at midnight
Ride, cowboy, ride
Yeah, I learned my lesson
Here's the story to tell
So I'll make my confession
In this sleazy motel
I could be the romantic
I could try my best lines
But ain't got the money
And I ain't got the time
Ride, cowboy, ride
Through the back door to heaven to the other side
I wanna know the danger of a kiss at midnight
Ride cowboy ride
So you want to be a cowboy
Ride cowboy, ride
Baby, come on
Ride, ride, ride
Stick To Your Guns
So you want to be a cowboy
Well you know it's more than just a ride
Guess you got to know the real thing
If you want to know the other side
Ain't nobody riding shotgun
In this world tonight
And when you spit, you better mean it
You got to make 'em all believe it
If you're gonna be the one
Stick to your gun
Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby
You can go for the trigger
But only if you have to
Aim from the heart
Some will love and some will
Curse you, baby
And you can go to war
But only if you have to
It's only if you have to
So you want to be the big time
Some people have to drag you down
There's no living in the backseat
If you're gonna drive through town
And when you pray for independence
Boy, you better stand your ground
You got to give it all you got now
Or you might get shot down
Fight hard until the battle is won
Stick to your guns
Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby
You can go for the trigger
But only if you have to
Aim from the heart
Some will love and some will
Curse you, baby
And you can go to war
But only if you have to
But only if you have to
Solo
Well, you know that
I been through it
I got the scars to prove it
Fight hard and the
Battle is yours
Stick to your guns
Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby
You can go for the trigger
But only if you have to
Aim from the heart
Some will love and some
Will curse you, baby
And you can go to war
But only if you have to
It's only if you have to
But stick to your guns...
I'll Be There For You
I guess this time you're really leaving
I heard your suitcase say goodbye
And as my broken heart lies bleeding
You say true love is suicide
You say you're cried a thousand rivers
And now you're swimming for the shore
You left me drowning in my tears
And you won't save me anymore
Now I'm praying to God you'll
Give me one more chance, girl
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to
Be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you
I know you know we're
Had some good times
Now they have their own hiding place
I can promise you tomorrow
But I can't buy back yesterday
And Baby you know my hands are dirty
But I wanted to be your valentine
I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby
When you get drunk, I'll be the wine
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to
Be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you
Solo
And I wan't there when
You were happy
I wasn't there when you were down
I didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby
I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be
The air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you
99 In the Shade
I feel I'm burning up with fever
But the fire's feeling really good tonight
And it's alright
I'm gonna see Sahara Jack and Suntan Sally
Somebody tells me even Tommy's coming
Down tonight
If Gina says it's alright
I'm gonna see those Senoritas
Lying under the sun
They're greasing it up
With their stereos on
You know I want to be their blanket
Gonna tell every girl
Hey, baby... You're the one...
Oh, tell the boys I'm on my way
I got the radio blasting
In my old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket
Cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
When the sun goes down
That's when the street heats up
Senorita Margarita fills your empty cup
Tonight - she make you feel alright
A good time here don't cost
Much money just a little
Sweet talking and a pretty native
Honey and you're set for life
Or one hell of a night
I'm gonna see those sons of beaches
Out there living it up in the surf
And the sand, man
That life ain't so tough
So get me in the action so I can tell
Every girl she's the one
Oh, tell the boys I'm on my way
I got the radio blasting in my
Old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket
Cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
Love For Sale
Well I woke up this morning
I rolled out of bed
I felt like a dog who's been
Kicked in the head
Checked out my mail
There was letter that read
Love for sale, love for sale
I picked up the phone
I called everyone I could
I let my fingers do the walking
Through the telephone book
You can't catch a fish
If you ain't got the hook
Love for sale, love for sale
Send up a signal
Throw me a line
Somebody explain "this funny Valentine"
It might not be legal
But it sure ain't a crime
I'm one step from crazy
And two steps behind
I called Lt. Columbo from my TV set
I've tried the Dating Game
I haven't found her yet
I'm hoping that she's looking like a Penthouse Pet
Love for sale, love for sale
Solo
We've been living together
3 years, 2 hours, 20 minutes
Maybe four houndred beers
You can't shop for love
When you're shopping at Sears
Love for sale, love for sale
I guess I've learned my lesson
It was easy to see
My old lady she played this joke on me
I never looked where I forgot it would be
Love for sale, love for sale
Love for sale, love for sale
Love for sale, love for sale
