1.You Can Still ... Rock In America
Lyrics:Jack Blades/Brad Gillis
Music:Jack Blades/Brad Gillis
Little sister
By the record machine
A tiny dancer
Such a sweet sixteen
She's goin' out
She's gonna party tonite
She's gonna shake
And make it last all nite
Little brother's
Got a drivin' machine
A fast driver
Such a clean machine
They're goin' out
They're gonna put out the lights
They're gonna rock it rock it rock it
You can still rock in America
Ah yeah it's alright
You can still rock in America
Ah yeah all nite
You can still rock in America
Little sister
Makes a move for the door
The door squeaks
She's one the second floor
Her daddy wakes
'Is everything O.K.?'
Not a sound
As she makes her getaway
Little brother's
Got it ready to Roll
Tires burning
As they head for the show
Light it up
And turn the music on loud
They're rockin' rockin' rockin'
You can still rock in America
Ah yeah it's alright
You can still rock in America
Ah yeah all nite
You can still rock in America
(Rock in America)
You can still
(Rock in America)
Rock in America
(Rock in America)
Yeah you can still
(Rock in America)
You can still rock in America
Ah yeah it's alright
You can still rock in America
Ah yeah all night
You can still rock in America
You can still rock in America
Yeah you can still rock in America
2.Sing Me Away
Lyrics:Keagy/Blades
Music:Keagy/Blades
Sometimes I sit and I dream on for hours
Sometimes my hours they turn into days
I dream of a girl I once knew as a schoolboy
She is the one who could sing me away
But she is a long ways away
And I want to be with her today
I'll think of a way I can get back
Oh I'd run all the way back home
Sing me away
Sing me away
Sing me away
Sing me away
What do you see when you look in the mirror
I see a face from the past it's so clear
What do you hear when I sing you forever
A song that will last for a million years
But I am a long ways away
I want to be with you today
Think of a way I can get back
Oh I'll run all the way back home
Sing me away
Sing me away
Sing me away
Sing me away
3.Goodbye
Lyrics:Jeff Watson/Jack Blades
Music:Jeff Watson/Jack Blades
As the sun hides his head
For another nights rest
And the wind sings
It's same old song
And you on the edge
Never close, never far
Always there when I need a friend
But it's hard living life
On this memory-go-round
Always up, always down
Spinning 'round and 'round and 'round
And all this could be
Sucha dream so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye
There once was a time
Never far from my mind
On the beach, on the 4th of July
I remember the sand
How you held out your hand
And we touched for what seemed a lifetime
But it's hard
Leaving all this behind me now
Like a schoolboy so lost
Never found until now
And all this could be
Such a dream so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye
And it's hard
Living life on this memory-go-round
Always up, always down
Spinning 'round and 'round and 'round
And all this could be
Such a dream so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye
And all this could be
Such a dream so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye...
(Goodbye)
(Goodbye)
(Goodbye)
(Goodbye)
(Goodbye)
4.When You Close Your Eyes
Written:Jack Blades/Alan Fitzgerald/Brad Gillis
What do you do
When it's falling apart
And you knew it as going
From the very start
Do you close your eyes
And dream about me
A girl in love
With a gleam in her eye
I was a younger boy
All dressed in white
We're older now
I bet you still think about me
I remember
We learned about love
In the back of a Chevrolet
Well it felt so good to be young
Feels like yesterday
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
Do you still dream about me
I guess I don't know
What I'm thinking
Coming off
A hard night of drinking
Angie come closer to me
I need a soul to bleed on
It could'a been done
In a different kinda way
But that ain't you
You play tough when you play
It's over now
I bet you still think about me
I remember
I held you so tight
And we danced the night away
With the moves
Of two wide eyed kids
I need you so much today
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
I remember
We learned about love
In the back of a Chevrolet
No good for an old memory
To me and so much today
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your big brown eyes
Do you dream about me

6.Don't Tell Me You Love Me
Lyrics:Jack Blades
Music:Jack Blades
It ain't the way you move
It ain't the way that you move me,
oh no
It ain't the way you shake
It ain't the way that you shake me,
oh no
I've lived twenty-five years I'm a

It's taken miles and lines to learn the
right from the wrong
I keep you hanging on
Don't tell me you love me
Don't tell me you love me
Don't tell me, I don't wanna know
Don't tell me you love me

7.Sentimental Street
Lyrics:Jack Blades
Music:Jack Blades
Saw you walking out on Sentimental Street
What'cha doing out there
Who you trying to be
I know what you're thinking
'Cause I've been there myself
I've been kicked so many times
I don't know nothing else
Still I noticed your urgency
And recognized the flair
That you got from chasing
All those Easy coast dares
I've seen it before
It happens time and again
All cut up inside
Yet you're caught in a spin
Out on
Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Take a good hard look
There ain't nothing ever new
Out on Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Will you ever find out
Guess I'll leave it up to you
Saw you dancing
Out at Madame Wong's Two
You did them same two steps
That I thaught you back in June
Heard you dined last night
At Conte Razor's Cafe
Did you get your fill
Did you think ya had to pay
Still I noticed your urgency
And recognized the pain
And I'm sure it's the same
You feel again and again
And I wish I could get us
That second chance
But you're having too much fun
With your sudden romance
Out on
Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Take a good hard look
There ain't nothing ever new
Out on Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Will you ever find out
Guess I'll leave that up to you
Out on
Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Take a good hard look
There ain't nothing ever new
Out on Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Will you ever find out
Guess I'll leave that up to you
(Sentimental Street in the Avenues)
Oh take a good hard look
There ain't nothing ever new
Out on
Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
Will you ever find out
Guess I'll leave that up to you
Saw you walking out on
Sentimental Street
What you doing out there
Who ya trying to be
Out on
Sentimental Street
In the Avenues
will you ever find out
Guess I'll leave that up to you
8.The Secret Of My Success
Written:J.Blades/D.Foster/T.Keane/M.Landau
Think of it, I, hold the world in the palm of my hand
Run a comb through my hair, head on out for some new
foreign land
And all this could seem like a dream out the door
With everyday people, face down on the floor
I always said I could make it and be who I am
There's a new look in sight, what a change for the new
modern man
With all this it seems, like I'm dying for more
The streets are on fire, never seen it before
It's like the sound of electric guitars
Worlds collide and hearts will be broken
Over and over it's the same every day -
How can I say what has never concerned me
The secret of my success is I'm living 25 hours a day
It's amazing to me, what a fool will believe to get by
With a change of your mind, I can live, I can fly
The harder they come, the harder they fall
I never say maybe and I go for it all
Just like the sound of electric guitars
Worlds collide and hearts will be broken
Over and over it's the same every day -
How can I say what has never concerned me
The secret of my success is I'm living 25 hours a day
With nothing to show, just sweat from my soul
My heart's on the line and I'm dying to go
Look at us now, gonna make it somehow
Hold on to me baby, can't hold me down
Ooooooyeah
Worlds collide and hearts will be broken
Over and over it's the same every day -
How can I say what has never concerned me
The secret of my success is I'm living 25 hours a a day
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
The secret of my success is I'm living 25 hours a day
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
25 hours a day
9.Restless Kind
Lyrics:Blades/Keagy
Music:Blades/Keagy
Off on your own
It's a lonely ride
Seeing the things
Only seen thru your eyes
Pick yourself up
Gonna try it again
Knowing that this time
You're reaching the end
A voice inside
Made me feel that I can fly
And you'll be there by my side
Forever
We're the restless kind
Lay your broken dreams upon the road
And we will ride
With the restless kind
In the morning light
See the tears, the joy fall from your eyes
And we will ride
We're the restless kind
Rolling down the road
With the wind in your hair
And maybe we're searching
For something we can share
One heart, one soul
Hold a mountain of dreams
The circle's unbroken
And rough around the seams
So don't you fear, my friend
You know I'll love you till the end
And I'll be there by your side forever
We're the restless kind
Lay your broken dreams upon the road
And we will ride
With the restless kind
In the morning light
See the tears, the joy fall from your eyes
And we will ride
We're the restless kind
Yes, I know
How the world can fall upon you
And take you down, down, down
And make you feel like you're hollow inside
Do you understand
I will light the candle
And guide your soul
Down the highway
And give you faith in the world
We're the restless kind
Lay your broken dreams upon the road
And we will ride
With the restless kind
In the morning light
See the tears, the joy fall from your eyes
And we will ride
We're the restless kind
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Lay your dreams upon the line
Oh whoa, oh whoa
We're the restless kind
Oh whoa, oh whoa
See the tears, the joy
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa
Oh whoa, oh whoa......
10.Four In The Morning
Lyrics:Jack Blades
Music:Jack Blades
Four in the morning
Came without a warning
Everybody got a place to be
I got holes in my conscience
Shot with a vengeance
I must have been a fool not to see
I need you bad
It hard to live without your company
I need you bad, so bad
I can take it you see
Oh, I...
Can take anymore
I can fake anymore
It such a hard time loving you
I can take anymore
I can fake anymore
It such a hard time loving you
There was a time when I knew you
I held my body to you
Made you feel like you never felt before
And now it all in the distance
Still you keep resisting
I love you like never before
Oh, I need you bad
It hard to live without your tender touch
I need you bad, so bad
I guess you e playing me tough
Oh, I...
Can take anymore
I can fake anymore
It such a hard time loving you
I can take anymore
I can fake anymore
It such a hard time loving you
I guess I was going
In the wrong direction
I guess I was thrown for a while
I need to see you smile
I need you so, yeah
I must have been going
In the wrong direction
I guess I was thrown for a while
I need you bad
It hard to live without your company
I need you bad, so bad
I can take it you see
I need you bad
It hard to live without your tender touch
I need you bad, so bad
I only taking so much
Oh, I...
Can take anymore
I can fake anymore
It such a hard time loving you
I can take anymore

11.Eddie's Comin' Out Tonight
Lyrics:Jack Blades
Music:Jack Blades
He wears his trousers real tight and his
skin's so white
He lives beyond his means
He wear Italian shoes that are used
to good news
They walk behind the scenes
He intended going light, the streets' his type
And the alley's wheres he's king
He's got a grin on his face, he says he
loves to rat race
He always plays to win
Eddie's coming out tonight
He like to rock
He rock it all night long
He like to roll
Oh yeah
He like to rock
He rock it all night long
He like to roll
Oh yeah
He imitated, you see, he's got a girl
that looks pretty
She dresses for a parade
She doesn't care for a halo, she never
ever says no
She's so insane
And like a late night madness braking
the silence
You hear them on my strike
They said, you're nice tonight,
They're gonna catch you to your limit
Tonight you live or you die
