1.Three Time Loser
Stand here ev'ry night,
I'm wearin' my number,
but she said wear it,
touching up another fool.
In a jukebox job downin' blues
in her leopard-skin anklehigh boots
while I'm jackin' off
readin' Playboy on a hot afternoon.
I'm a three time loser.
Caught it up in Monterey,
shook it up in East Virginia,
now my friends say it's here to stay.
How dare you have a party
in a Chelsea basement
when the poor excited Jezebel said come outside.
She felt me up and kissed my face,
put her dirty hands down in my pants.
She took all of my money,
left me naked by the silvery moon.
I'm a three time loser.
Caught it up in Monterey,
shook it up in East Virginia,
now my friends say it's here to stay.
Roll away, roll away, all of you women;
I don't think I need you anymore.
There'll be no more doctor's bills,
there'll be no more swallowing pills.
And I've found a woman
that can witness that in blood out of me.
I'm a three time loser.
Caught it up in Monterey,
shook it up in East Virginia,
now my friends say it's here to stay.
I'm a three time loser.
Caught it up in Monterey,

2.Alright For An Hour
Oh, didn't I mess around like ev'rybody did？
I said, Woman, you're foolin' around with a man that just don't
fit.
I said, I'd better get along before I get right under your skin.
Remember the song, wasn't it fun, 'cause it was just one of
those things.
But it was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.
I said goodbye to money, I don't owe no alimony.
I paid my dues and payroll cues, gonna leave it all up to you.
I'll take my dog and my car, the best friends I've found so far,
and I'll keep goin' with the mornin' sun, singin' the same old
song.
But it was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.
Well I guess you needed somebody to open each and ev'ry door
With a large amount in the Swiss account to give you thrills and
nothing more.
But my Volkswagen is hardly a custom built Ferarri.
You want firstclass but I pump gas, so I'll get on out of your
way.
But it was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.
It was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,

3.All In The Name Of Rock 'N' Roll
Went downtown on the two forty-nine
Play'n for recognition fo the New York town
See, me and my boys, got a rock 'n' roll band
They were so damn good, gonna lift up the man
Well, we got ups, we got downs
We got just so high 'til the sun goes down
Got the ego, can be abused
I got my two-toned shoes and I can sing the blues
Look out kids, it's the FBI
We got a problem, you keep me high
Put on your clothes, take the smile off your face
And put your money where tyour mouth is or get our this place
New York town is a meanass town
We got a thousand bands, singin' underground
Way down in New Orleans, it's the same old thing
Emotion' I music a merry old thing
Old king soul, he finally gave us a jolt
He played the vibes till nine and read from ten to four
He played upside down, he played inside out
Then a uniform band, he was throen into jail
Look out kids, it's the FBI
We got a problem, you keep me high
Put on your clothes, take the smile off your face
Put your money where your mouth is or get out this place
Gettin' hungry, I know little woman
Can't get a smell 'cause my nose is blocked
I'm so high, I can't believe it
Hotel dogs are knockin' on my door
Two nights of singin' nearly out on the end
Lift the parts red, oh, what a square
As soon as the man, there's no sweeter song
Listen McCartney, we're the band on the run
Look out kids, it's the FBI
We got a problem, you keep me high
Put on your clothes, take the smile off your face
And put your money where your mouth is or get out this place
Oh yeah
4.Drift Away
Day after day I'm more confused;
I look for the light in the pouring rain.
You know that's a game that I hate to lose.
I'm feelin' the strain; ain't it a shame？
Oh, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time;
don't understand the things that I do.
' Cause the world outside looks so unkind.
Now I'm countin' on you to carry me through.
Oh, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Yeah, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
And when my mind is free no melody can move me.
When I'm feelin' blue guitars are comin' through to soothe me.
And thanks for the joy that you've given me;
I want you to know I believe in your song,
and rhythm and rhyme and harmony.
You help me along, makin' me strong.
Give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away, yeah
Give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Oh, give me the beat, boys, to soothe my soul;
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away,
Yeah,
won't ya help me,
won't ya help me,
won't ya help me drift away
5.Stone Cold Sober
Never get to bed before sunup,
alway get caught in the rain;
sometimes I might get in trouble,
never was one to complain.
Now gentleman, you must agree
ain't it worth it when you're out on cloud thirty-three
to be stone cold sober again,
down in the alley again,
stone cold sober again.
Never found a dime in a gutter,
always get my best friends drunk.
If the pres'dent tries to call me,
say ' Rodney, come on over for lunch';
I'd say, ' Gentlemen, exuse me please
but I'm busy with my buddies up on cloud thirty-three.'
Yeah, stone cold sober again,
down in the alley again,
stone cold sober again.
Sunday is a drag, so forget it,
Monday you can make up for that;
Tuesday, take a taste for dinner,
if you're all right spend it in bed.
But on Thursday prepare for your weekend
and let Friday disappear into Saturday mornin'
when you're stone cold sober again,
down in the alley again,
stone cold sober again.
stone cold sober again,
down in the alley again,
stone cold sober again.
I don't mind stone cold sober again,
down in the alley again,
stone cold sober again.
6.I Don't Want To Talk About It
I can tell by your eyes that youve probbly been cryin forever,
And the stars in the sky dont mean nothin to you, theyre a
mirror.
I dont want to talk about it, how you broke my heart.
If I stay here just a little bit longer,
If I stay here, wont you listen to my heart, whoa, heart？
If I stand all alone, will the shadow hide the color of my
heart;
Blue for the tears, black for the nights fears.
The star in the sky dont mean nothin to you, theyre a mirror.
I dont want to talk about it, how you broke my heart.
If I stay here just a little bit longer,
If I stay here, wont you listen to my heart, whoa, heart？
I dont want to talk about it, how you broke this ol heart.
If I stay here just a little bit longer,
If I stay here, wont you listen to my heart, whoa, heart？
My heart, whoa, heart.
7.It's Not The Spotlight
If I ever feel the light agin shinin' down on me
I don't have to tell you what a welcome it will be
I felt the light before, but I let it slip away
But I still keep on believin' that it'll come back some day
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam' ra light
It's not the street lights of some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean
Some times, I try to tell myself, the light was never real
Just a fantasy that used to be, the way I used to feel
But you and I know better, even though it's been so long
If your memory really serves you well, you'll never tell me, no
wrong
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam'ra light
It's not the streetlights of some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean
So if ever fel the light again shinin' down on me
I don't have to tell you, how welcome it would be
I felt the light before but I let it slip away
But I still keep on believin' that it'll come back some day
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam'ra light
It's not the streetlights, of some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean
It's not the spotlight, it's not the cam'ra light
It's not the streetlights, of some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
But I've seen it shinin' in your eyes, an' you know what I mean
8.This Old Heart Of Mine
Lyricist：BRIAN HOLLANDEddie Holland
Writer(s)：Holland-Dozier-Holland
This old heart of mine been broke a thousand times.
Each time you break away, feel youre gone to stay.
Lonely nights that come, memories that go,
Bringing you back again, hurting me more and more.
Maybe its my mistake to show this love I feel inside,
cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if Im coming or going
But I love you, yes I do.
I love you; this old heart weeps for you.
I try hard to hide my hurt inside.
This old heart of mine always keeps me crying.
The way you treat me leaves me incomplete.
Youre here for the day, gone for the week.
But if I want you a hundred times,
A hundred times I have you back.
Im yours whenever you want me;
I wanna shout about it, tell the world about it
cause I love you; this old heart weeps for you.
I love you, yes, I do.
Maybe its my mistake to show this love I feel inside,
cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if Im coming or going
But I love you, yes I do.
This old heart weeps for you.
I love you; this old heart weeps for you.
I love you; yes I do.
I love you; this old heart weeps for you.
9.Still Love You
I was told by a good friend
You were untouchable, out of my reach.
But the first time ever I saw you,
I spilled my cherry lime over your dress.
You said, dont you worry, its not my best one.
First encounter, hardly the best.
But I would not change a thing
If I could do it all over again.
All Im tryin to say in my awkward way is,
i still love you.
Didnt I try to impress you,
But my old chevy van kept breakin down.
And my one room over the drugstore,
We watched the neon lights go out over town.
And some nights wed go out dancin,
Come home singin by the erie canal.
Two hearts gently poundin
As that mornin train came janglin through.
But I would not change a thing
If I could do it all over again.
All Im tryin to say in my awkward way is,
i still love you.
Well darlin, didnt I promise
Id never go so far away again？
But here I am writin this letter;
Goodbye to you, my love, see you again.
But I would not change a thing
If I could do it all over again.
All Im tryin to say in my awkward way is,
i still love you.
10.Sailing
I am sailing, I am sailing,
Home again cross the sea.
I am sailing, stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.
I am flying, I am flying,
Like a bird cross the sky.
I am flying, passing high clouds,
To be with you, to be free.
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Thro the dark night, far away,
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.
Can you hear me, can you hear me,
Thro the dark night far away.
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.
We are sailing, we are sailing,
Home again cross the sea.
We are sailing stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.
Oh lord, to be near you, to be free.
Oh lord, to be near you, to be free,
Oh lord.
11.Skye Boat Song
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar,
Thunderclaps rend the air,
Baffled, our foes stand by the shore,
Follow they will not dare.
Speed bonnie boat like a
bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.
Though the waves leap,
soft shall ye sleep,
Ocean's a royal bed.
Rock'd in the deep Flora will keep
Watch o'er your weary head.
Speed bonnie boat like a
bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.
Burned are our homes, exile and death,
Scattered the loyal man.
Yet ere the sword, cool in the sheath,
Charlie will come again.
Speed bonnie boat like a
bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.
Many's the lad fought on that day,
Well the claymor could wield,
When the night came, silently lay
Dead in Collodens field.
12.To Love Somebody
There's a light,
a certain kind of light
that never shone on me.
I want my life to be, lived with you.
lived with you.
And there's a way, ev'rybody says,
to do each and ev'ry little thing.
But what good does it mean
if I ain't got you, if ain't got you？
'Cause you don't know what it's like
you don't know what it's like
to love somebody,
to love somebody
the way I love you.
In my brains
I see your face again;
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
I'm blind, so very very blind
I'm a man,
can't you see what I am？
I live and breath for you
But what good does this do
if he ain't got you, if he ain't got you？
'cause you don't know what it's like, baby,
you don't know what it's like
to love somebody,
to love somebody
the way I love you
'cause you don't know what it's like, baby,
you don't know what it's like
to love somebody,
to love somebody
the way I love you
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Oh baby
you don't know what it's like
you never never know what it's like
to love somebody,
to love somebody
the way I love you,

I gave a letter to the postman,
He put it his sack.
Bright in early next morning,
He brought my letter back.
She wrote upon it：

And sent it special d.

Home again cross the sea.
I am sailing, stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.
I am flying, I am flying,
Like a bird cross the sky.
I am flying, passing high clouds,
To be with you, to be free.
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Thro the dark night, far away,
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.
Can you hear me, can you hear me,
Thro the dark night far away.
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.
We are sailing, we are sailing,
Home again cross the sea.
We are sailing stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.
Oh lord, to be near you, to be free.
Oh lord, to be near you, to be free,
Oh lord.
25.Skye Boat Song(Alternate Version)
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar,
Thunderclaps rend the air,
Baffled, our foes stand by the shore,
Follow they will not dare.
Speed bonnie boat like a
bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.
Though the waves leap,
soft shall ye sleep,
Ocean's a royal bed.
Rock'd in the deep Flora will keep
Watch o'er your weary head.
Speed bonnie boat like a
bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.
Burned are our homes, exile and death,
Scattered the loyal man.
Yet ere the sword, cool in the sheath,
Charlie will come again.
Speed bonnie boat like a
bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.
Many's the lad fought on that day,
Well the claymor could wield,
When the night came, silently lay
Dead in Collodens field.
