1.I'd Love You To Want Me

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

When I saw you standing there
I bout fell out my chair
And when you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet.

Now it took time for me to know
what you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes.

Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be.

You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feeling show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave.


2.How Can I Tell Her

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo
Artist:Lobo

She knows when I'm lonesome, she cries when I'm sad
She's up in the good times, she's down in the bad
Whenever I'm discouraged, she knows just what to do
But girl she doesn't know about you.

I can tell her my troubles, she makes them all seem right
I can make up excuses not to hold her at night
We can talk of tomorrow, I'll tell her things that I want to do
But girl how can I tell her about you.

How can I tell her about you
Girl please tell me what to do
Everything seems right whenever I'm with you
So girl won't you tell me how to tell her about you.

How can I tell her I don't miss her whenever I'm away
How can I say it's you I think of every single night and day
But when is it easy telling someone we're through
Ah girl help me tell her about you.


3.Me And You And A Dog Named Boo

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I remember to this day
The bright red Georgia clay
And how it stuck to the tires
After the summer rain
Will power made that old car go
A woman's mind told me that so
Oh how I wish
We were back on the road again

Me and you and a dog named boo
Travellin' and livin' off the land
Me and you and a dog named boo
How I love being a free man

I can still recall
The wheat fields of St. Paul
And the morning we got caught
Robbing from an old hen
Old McDonald he made us work
But then he paid us for what it was worth
Another tank of gas
And back on the road again

I'll never forget the day
We motored stately into big L.A.
The lights of the city put settlin'
Down in my brain
Though it's only been a month or so
That old car's buggin' us to go
We've gotta get away and get back on
The road again


4.A Simple Man

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Where do butterflies go when it rains?
Who goes around & tucks in the trains?
What makes a teddy bear like to sleep?
Why do we all make promises that we can't keep?

Where do puppy dogs go when their sad?
And what do elephants say when their mad?
Who do you tell if you don't have a friend?
Why do we open our mouths and stick our foot in?

These are the things that bother me,
Not a lot of things across some sea,
I don't even have a master plan,
I guess that I am just a simple man.

Where do robins sleep on the road?
And how can a little ant carry that load?
Why write words that we have to erase?
Why does everyone have more than one face?


5.Standing At The End Of The Line

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

You've been around for a long, long time
I've seen you here before
You'll meet some guy who really turns you on
And sneak out of the side door.

You'll never look my way I know
I ain't much to look at
But one of these nights you're going
Home with me, I'm gonna see to that.

Well I'm just waiting out my time
Standing at the end of the line
I got a lot of loving I'm saving
inside for you
Yes I'm just waiting out my time
Standing at the end of the line
But you're gonna know that you've
been loved when I get through loving you.

You look right at me and smiled
One time just last week
And what one look from you did to me
It kept me in my seat

But you picked another guy to entertain
you that night
And I was left to entertain myself
so I got into a fight.


6.It Sure Took A Long Long Time

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I'm sure it might have grown old
Like most young things usually do
and dangling a line to try and find your mind
For that I can't blame you.

Now I'm not questioning your motives
For all the silly things you've done
Now you're coming round putting yourself down
Telling me I always was the one

It sure took a long time to miss me
A long time for you to come around
A long time to find what was wrong
It sure took a long, long time.

The magic that we had together
Seems so much stronger than before
What did I learn to make the love return
O girl I've got to learn some more.


7.A Little Different

Lyrics:Kent Lavoie
Music:Kent Lavoie

Once upon my boyhood time
The circus came to town
I remember church going people
Talking the carnies down
Misfits of society
That's what they said to me
So I sneaked up close
And watched them work
And found that actually

They laughed alot
They sang out loud
The way they walked
Made them look kinda proud
A little different from you
A little different from me
Alot like the man who walked
Through Galilee

Mr. and Mrs. Goldstein
Moved in next door to us
The neighbors were indignant
They put up quit a fuss
The neighborhood had gone to pot
And they had worked so hard
So I sneaked out back
Peeked through the fence
And watched them do the yard

They laughed a lot
They sang out loud
They looked just like the rest
Of the crowd
A little different from you
A little different from me
A lot like the man who walked
Through Galilee

Everyone is different
But everyone's the same
Riding around in circles
On life's mysterious train

What if other people
Thought that way of you
Too weak for the circus
Too dumb to be a Jew
A plain old Joe
In wash 'n' wear suit
Wasting his life away
Or do they look in envy
And do or don't they say


8.Armstrong

Lyrics:John Stewart
Music:John Stewart

Black boy in Chicago
Playin' in the street
Not enough to wear
Not near enough to eat
But don't you know he saw it
On that July afternoon
Saw a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

Young girl in Calcutta
Barely eight years old
The fly's that swarm the market place
Will see she don't grow old
But don't you know she heard it
On a July afternoon
Heard a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

River's getting dirty
The wind in getting bad
War and hate are killing off
The only earth we have
But the whole world stopped to watch it
On that July afternoon
Watched a man named Armstrong
Walk upon the moon

And I wonder if a long time ago
Somewhere in the universe
They watched a man named Adam
Walk upon the earth


9.I'm The Only One

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Trees are things that move
And tell you when the wind blows
Flowers are things that bloom
And tell you when the winter goes
Sand is a thing that tells you when
To empty your shoes
And I'm the only one
You tell all this to

Ralph is your cat who tells you that
He's got to go outside
Jane is your friends who tells you when
You ought not to cry
I know Boo she knows when you are
Feeling blue
But I'm the only one
You tell all this to
I'm the only one
You tell all this to

Fear is a word you hear
All alone in the dark
Fun is a day in the sun
With Ralph in the park
Happy's the time you find
A love that is true
And I'm the only one
Kathy tells all this to
I'm the only one
You tell all this to


10.Rock And Roll Days

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I've seen a lot of things change in many ways
Since I was a boy back in the rock and roll days
Back when a bust was a six-pack of cold beer.
Marciano, he was champ the band all played through one amp
And the biggest thing was getting rubber in second gear

I love the rock and roll days
And I love all the good old ways
We used to do things in our crowd
I love the rock and roll days
And I love all the good old ways
We used to do the same things that we do now.

The only bikes back there were Schwinns
The only pigs were the bad wolf's friend
And going to the outdoor movie was something neat
Messing around then was not big
That's the one thing I did not dig
I was lucky to get as far as the back seat.


11.Rings

Lyrics:Alex Harvey/Eddie Reeves
Music:Alex Harvey/Eddie Reeves

Ring ring telephone rings
Somebody says baby what you doin'
I've been wonderin' where you've been
Now and then I think about you and me

There's no use fighting about things
We can't recall
Cos it don't matter girl at all

Just come on home
And baby we'll laugh and sing
And we'll make love
And let the telephone ring

Ring ring door bell ring
Baby come on in
I got the Allman Brothers on the stereo

I'm glad you came around
I've been feeling down
Talking to Tony and Mario

You know they make good conversation
But girl that ain't no consolation
Cos I got love and baby I'll give you some
And if somebody comes we'll let the door bell ring

Ring ring golden ring
Around the sun around your pretty finger
Ring ring voices ring
With a happy tune anybody can be a singer

The sun comes up across the city
I swear you never looked so
Dog gone pretty

Hand in hand
We'll stand upon the sand
With the preacher man
And let the wedding bell ring


12.Don't Expect Me To Be Your Friend

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I stopped sending flowers to your apartment
You said you aren't home much anymore
I stopped dropping by without an appointment
Cause I'd hear laughter coming through your door

Sometimes late at night you'll still call me
Just before you close your eyes to sleep
You make me vow to try and stop by sometime
Baby that's a promise I can't keep

I love you too much to ever start liking you
So let's just let the story kinda end
I love you too much to ever start liking you
So don't expect me to be your friend

I don't walk down through the village or other places
That we used to go to all the time
I'm trying to erase you from my memory
'Cause thinking of you jumbles up my mind
You always act so happy when I see you
You smile that way you take my hand and then
Introduce me to your latest lover
That's when I feel the walls start crashing in


13.We Can Make It

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Well I have known you
A long long time you
You have been driving me
Out of my mind cause I
I look in your eyes
And I know what I see
I know that you feel
Just like me

But you will not let
Yourself go because
You are confused you just
You just do not know you say
To yourself this just
Could not be real
Believe me girl I know
Just how you feel

We can make it
Some kinda love
The world can't fake it
Our kind of love
If you let yourself do
What your heart keeps telling you
Oh we can make it
Some kind of love
We can make it

A year from now you will
Laugh at yourself just for
Fighting off what you
Just could not help
You will look back
And you'll love what you see
you say that our love
It just just had to be

Oh girl we can make it
Some kind of love
Yes girl we can make it
Some kind of love
You and me we can make it
Some kind of love


14.One More Time

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I saw her smiling at me
From somewhere across the bar
She looked good from where I sat
Of course it was quit dark
She sat down and told me
Who she was and where she'd been
It seemed she knew me long ago
I said here I go again

I learned more about her
Than she ever should have told
Before too long I knew
That this was someone I could hold
We both had had so much in life
That always turned out wrong
Something deep inside me said
The odds are much too long

Two sad and lonely people
Half way down the road
Two souls who need to share
Half the other's load
We both knew the riddle
We just couldn't find the rhyme
Two who will love
Just one more time

When you've been there so many times
It don't take long to know
All about each other
And which way the things would go
And even know we both had crashed
So many times before
We both felt that all those times
Were what is was all for


15.Come With Me

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Love I can see you now
Like I've never seen you before
Love I can hear you now
Like I've never heard you before
Ummmmmmm

So come with me
Come away with me
Ah come with me
Ummmmmmm

Love I can touch you now
Like I've never touched you before
And love I can feel you now
Like I've never felt you before
Ohhhhhh

So come with me
Come away with me
So come with me

Love I can love you now
Like I've never loved anything
So come with me
Come away with me
Ah come with me
Come away with me


16.My First Time

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I was a inexperienced boy who just turned fifteen
She was a worldly woman exactly my same age
And I had heard the stories going around about her
Ah what I heard put my young blood into a rage

So I asked to take her out one Friday evening
Scared to death I'd find what I was looking for
And when she got into my car She sat close to me
Then reached right out and firmly locked my door

My first time
Going through my mind
Was this is my first time
My first time
Please be kind this is my first time

Then she suggested we drive out somewhere into the country
Then she suggested we climb into the back seat
But when she asked how long I thought that I could last there
Ah I had to confess it was all over for me

You see this is my first time
I was so blind
This is my first time
My first time
You were so kind
My first time

My first time
It was so fine
My first time


17.Reaching Out For Someone

Lyrics:Dick Holler
Music:Dick Holler

Going to San Francisco
To live my life away
Had to search for 15 years
To crash for just a day

I needed my revival
But I guess it never came
You know the summer brought the winter
And they both forgot my name

Reaching out for someone
Tell me what more can I say
Are you going my way

Wasted in Sausalito
A revelation came
I guess I could make it
But I won't play the game

Great God Almighty's gone
And he never even cried
And if you don't believe me
Then I want you by my side

Traveling on this mountain
I'll tell you what I see
I thought I saw Methuselah
Coming on down to me

Well I looked right up the rail road line
And I hear the rumblin' roar
I reached down in my pocket
And feel nothing anymore


18.Stoney

Lyrics:Lobo/Billy Meshel
Music:Lobo/Billy Meshel

I've known her since we both were kids,
I recall the silly things we did
She would want to ride up on my back
To keep from stepping on a crack
I didn't think of it back then
But even when she did not win
She was happy just to play
Stoney likes to live out everyday

Stoney, happy all the time
Stoney, live is summertime
The joy you find in living everyday
Stoney, how I love your simple ways

The times when no one understood
Seems that Stoney always would
We walk for hours in the sand
She would always try and hold my hand

Now I don't recollect the time
I fell in love with this old friend of mine
Or when I first saw in her eyes
What she tried so not to hide.
