1.The Heart Of Rock & Roll


2.Trouble In Paradise(Live)

Huey lewis

Billy's home, he just got back from la.
Plenty of lines but nothing to say.
Said i, seen this movie and it don't end nice.
Looks like trouble in paradise.

He used to be cool he used to laugh a lot.
Down at the brothers in the parking lot.
Now he's sick, and he's scared and he's paying the price.

Trouble in, paradise. (trouble in paradise.)
Momma said he always was so nice.
(trouble in paradise.)

American son he's not very old.
An american dream that's never been sold.
The smile on his face is just his last disguise.
We've got trouble in paradise.

There's a scream inside that shouts: here i am !
Some people say: we've got to do what we can.
Me i don't know you see i've been there myself once or twice.

Trouble in, paradise. (trouble in paradise.)
Momma said he always was so nice.
(trouble in paradise.) we've got trouble, hey

Five long years since i wrote this song.
Many people dying, so many gone.
Take one more, coming still as good advice.

Trouble in, paradise. (trouble in paradise.)
Momma said he always was so nice.
(trouble in paradise.) we've been troubled, yeah, yeah

(trouble in paradise.)
(trouble in paradise.)
Hey,
Trouble in


3.The Power Of Love

The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling that's the power of love

Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl's dream
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night

Chorus 1 :
You don't need money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That's the power of love
That's the power of love

First time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
But you'll be glad baby when you've found
That's the power makes the world go'round

Chorus 2 :
And it don't take money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and it's sudden it can be cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life

They say that all in love is fair
Yeah, but you don't care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Can you feel it ?
Hmmm

Chorus 3 :
It don't take money and it don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
You won't feel nothin' till you feel
You feel the power, just the power of love
That's the power, that's the power of love
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Feel the power of love

5.It's Alright

(curtis mayfield)

They say it's alright
Say it's alright
It's alright, have a good time
Cause it's alright, whoa it's alright

Now we gonna move it slow
When the lights are low
When you move it slow
It feels like more (?)
Cause it's alright
Whoa it's alright

Now listen to the beat
Kinda tap your feet
You got soul
Everybody knows that it's alright
Whoa it's alright

When you wake up early in the morning
Feeling sad like so many of us do
Hold a little soul
And make life your goal
And surely something's gotta come to you

And you gotta say it's alright
Say it's alright
It's alright, have a good time
Cause it's alright
Whoa it's alright

Someday i'll find me a woman
Who will love me and treat me real nice
Where my road has got to go (?)
My love she will know from morning, noon
Until the night

And she's gotta say that it's alright
Say it's alright
It's alright, have a good time
Cause it's alright
Whoa it's alright
Now listen to the beat
Kinda tap your feet
You got soul
Everybody knows that it's alright
Whoa it's alright
You got soul
Everybodu knows that it's alright
Whoa it's alright


6.100 Years From Now

If i don't treat you like a lady
You won't hold my hand
And you don't like it when i call you baby
Don't you understand
Even though we don't see eye to eye
That's no reason to say goodbye
You gotta learn to give and take
There's so much love we can make

Chorus
Even though we might be having a few doubts
Let's take the time and try to work things out
The little things we fuss and fight about
Ain't gonna matter 100 years from now

I admit i'm a little lazy--isn't everyone
And you let things drive you crazy
Sometimes you act so young
Even though we don't realize
We'd be foolish not to compromise
'cause what we have is all we've got
Believe it or not
We've really got a lot

Chorus

Chorus


7.So Little Kindness

I can't believe it after so long
How can the memories really be gone
Now i don't deny it's over
But why must you be so cold
I can't believe it

So little kindness
Yeah baby that's too bad
Saw you this evening out on the town
You went outta your way just to put me down
Now why got this chip on your sholder
When i don't even love you no more
I can't belive it

So little kindness
Baby it's sad
'cause we con't even talk about the little things
After this love we had
So little kindness
Baby that's too bad
So sad child child

Don't worry baby
I'm not gonna stand in your way
Now that it's gone
Our love is strong
No matter what you say

So little kindness
You're so blind
That you can't even recognize a real thing
When it was yours and mine
So little kindness
After all this time

So little kindness
Baby it's sad
Cause we can't even talk about anything
After what we once had
So little kindness
So little kindness
So little kindness
I'm looking for some kindness
I need some kindness
Can i just have some kindness
Give me some kindness


8.'til The Day After

Chorus
I believe you can love someone forever
I believe if it's right love will last a lifetime
If you say i will stay everyday right here by your side
Loving every night

Soft perfume and a smooth walk
A smile that dances when you talk
Sweet melody when you whisper to me
I love ya
I need ya
I'm never gonna leave you

Summer mornings in your hair
Paradise in my arms and i wanna take you there
So i'm down on one knee, and if you'll have me
I love you
I'll please you
I'm never gonna leave

I'm gonna stay till the day after
After the sun turns off it's lights
The stars don't shine at night
When god comes for my soul
I'll politely say no
I'm gonna stay till the day after
The world stops turning around

Chorus

I'm gonna stay till the day after
After the sun turns off it's lights
The stars don't shine at night
When god comes for my soul
I'll politely say no
I'm gonna stay till the day after
The world stops turning around

After the sun turns off it's lights
The stars don't shine at night
When god comes for my soul
I'll politely say no
I'm gonna stay till the day after
The world stops turning around

I'm gonna stay till the day after the world stops turning round
I'm gonna stay till the day after the world stops turning round


9.When The Time Has Come

Everything's gonna clear up
And the sun will shine
Everybody's gonna cheer up
'cause it's redemption time

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Cause you know things are gonna change
When the time has come

Walls are gonna crumble
And fall into the sea
Oh, all men will be humble
That's a guarantee

A little rain is gonna fall
But it will only wash away the tears of us all

Don't you worry bout a thing
'cause that train is gonna run
You will be on it
From here to kingdom come
When the time has come

Listen to the band
Feels like a change

Wind is gonna rise up
And blow us all away
People gonna wise up
Cause it's judgement day

So don't you worry about a thing
Cause you know that train is gonna run
You will be on it
Not just for some
We'll all be on it
From here to kingdom come
When the time has come

When the time has come
When the time has come
Oh when the time has come

Everything's gonna clear up
Everybody cheer up
Walls are gonna crumble
All men will be humble
Feeling it getting stronger
Won't be down much longer
We will be free
When the time has come

When the time has come
I beieve the time has come
Feels like a change
When the time....


10.Stuck With You

we've had some fun, and yes we've had our ups and downs
Been down that rocky road, but here we are, still around
We thought about someone else, but neither one took the bait
We thought about breaking up, but now we know it's much too late
We are bound by all the rest
Like the same phone number
All the same friends
And the same address

Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with
you
'cause i can see, (i can see) that you're happy to be stuck with
me

We've had our doubts, we never took them seriously
And we've had our ins and outs, but that's the way it's supposed
to be
We thought about giving up, but we could never stay away
Thought about breaking up, but now we know it's much too late
And it's no great mystery
If we change our minds
Eventually, it's back to you and me

Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with
you
'cause i can see, (i can see) that you're happy to be stuck with
me

We are bound by all the rest
Like the same phone number
All the same friends
And the same address

Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with
you
'cause i can see, (i can see) that you're happy to be stuck with
me
(yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with you
I'm happy to be stuck with you
Happy to be stuck with you.


11.Doing It All For My Baby

Early in the morning, i'm still in bed
She comes to me with sweet affection
Wakes me with kisses, 'hello sleepyhead.'
Gets me moving in the right direction
I do my best to give her love that lasts forever
It seems like everythiung i do i'm doing better

Doing it all for my baby
Because she's as fine as she can be
Doing it all for my baby
For everything she does for me

Later in the evening, it's been a busy day
She lays her head upon my weary shoulder
Listen to her laughing, snuggle up and say
Now i'm with you baby, the loneliness is over
I do my best to give her love that lasts forever
It seems like everything i do i'm doing better

Doing it all for my baby
Because she's as fine as she can be
Doing it all for my baby
For everything she does for me


12.The Heart Of Rock And Roll

New york, new york, is everything they say
And no place that i'd rather be
Where else can you do a half a million things
All at a quarter to three
When they palt their music, ooh that modern music
They like it with a lot of style
But t's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really drives 'em wild

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what i've seen i believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating

La, hollywood, and the sunset strip
Is something everyone should see
Neon lights and the pretty pretty girls
All dressed so scantily
When they play their music
That hard rock music
They like it with a lot of flash
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really kicks 'em in the

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what i've seen i believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating

Dc, san antone and the liberty town, boston and baton rouge
Tulsa, austin, oklahoma city, seattle, san francisco, too
Everywhere there's music, real live music, bands with a million
styles
But it's still that some old rock and roll music
That really drives 'em wild

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what i've seen i believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating


13.Bad Is Bad

Went uptown to see my cousin
Plays guitar, sounds like a chainsaw buzzin'
In the crowd, i see his mom and dad
I said 'hey, hey uncle, man your son is bad'

But sometimes, sometimes bad is bad
Cool is a rule, but, sometimes, bad is bad.

Across the street, a neon sign
All you can eat for a dollar ninety nine
Aww, that old stew is the baddest in the land
But one dollar's worth was all that i could stand

But sometimes, sometimes bad is bad
Cool is a rule, but, sometimes, bad is bad.

Back uptown to see marie
Nobody home, i opened the door with my key
'i love you, huey' was the note i read
But there's a strange pair of shoes underneath the bed

But sometimes, sometimes bad is bad
Cool is a rule, but, sometimes, bad is bad


14.I Want A New Drug

I want a new drug
One that won't make me sick
One that won't make me crash my car
Or make me feel three feet thick

I want a new drug
One that won't hurt my head
One that won't make my mouth too dry
Or make my eyes too red

One that won't make me nervous
Wondering what to do
One that makes me feel like i feel when i'm with you
When i'm alone with you

I want a new drug
One that won't spill
One that don't cost too much
Or come in a pill

I want a new drug
One that won't go away
One that won't keep me up all night
One that won't make me sleep all day

One that won't make me nervous
Wondering what to do
One that makes me feel like i feel when i'm with you
When i'm alone with you
I'm alone with you baby

I want a new drug
One that does what it should
One that won't make me feel too bad
One that won't make me feel too good

I want a new drug
One with no doubt
One that won't make me talk too much
Or make my face break out

One that won't make me nervous
Wondering what to do
One that makes me feel like i feel when i'm with you
When i'm alone with you


15.If This Is It

I've been phoning night and morning
I heard you say 'tell him i'm not home'
Now you're confessing, but i'm still guessing
I've been your fool for so so long
Girl don't lie, just to save my feelings
Girl don't cry, and tell me nothing's wrong
Girl don't try to make up phony reasons
I'd rather leave than never believe

If this is it
Please let me know
If this ain't love you'd better let me know
If this is it
I want to know
If this ain't love baby, just say so

You've been thinking
And i've been drinking
We both know that it's just not right
Now you're pretending
That it's not ending
You'll say anything to avoid a fight
Girl don't lie, and tell me that you need me
Girl don't cry, and tell me nothing's wrong
I'll be alrightone way or another
So let me go, or make we want to stay

If this is it
Please let me know
If this ain't love you'd better let me know
If this is it
I want to know
If this ain't love baby, just say so


16.Do You Believe In Love

I was walking down a one way street
Just a looking for someone to meet
One woman who was looking for a man
Now i'm hoping that the feeling is right
And i'm wondering if you'll stay for the night
So i'm coming (i don't wanna be lonely)
I wanna love you all over

Do you believe in love
Do you believe it' true
Do you believe in love
Oh you can bet i believe it too

Now the feeling is beginning to grow
And the meaning is something you only know
If you believe it take my hand and i'll take your heart
Now i'm wondering where does true love begin
I'm going under so i'm lettin' you in
My woman (i don't wanna be lonely)
I wanna love you all over

Do you believe in love
Do you believe it' true
Do you believe in love
Oh you can bet i believe it too

I use to have you in a photograph
(i'm so glad it's changed)
But now i've got you and it's gonna last
(do you believe in love)

Do you believe in love
Do you believe it' true
Do you believe in love
Oh you can bet i believe it too
