1.Treasures
Lyricist:Steve Wold
Writer(s):Steve Wold
When I walk down your street
Through your barred windows you look at me
And you wonder, have I come to ask
For one of your precious things that do not last
All your treasures
All your treasures
You think you know me but you don't know
That there's more to this picture than that shows
And you fear that I come to steal
Your security that ain't real
All your treasures
All your treasures
I will leave now and you won't cry
With relief now you'll just sigh
You'll remember come one day
And you'll walk out your door
'Cause you can't stay
While all your treasures
All your treasures slip away
All your treasures
All your treasures
2.You Can't Teach An Old Dog New Tricks
Lyricist:Steve Wold
Writer(s):Steve Wold
Must be something wrong with me
What it is I can't quite see
I can't seem to do nothing right
Maybe I need to change my style
Been this way for a long long while
Maybe there's a few things I oughta fix
Can you teach an old dog new tricks
Put a little fire, in my life
Climb a little higher, that is right
Tired of this ordinary bull...
Maybe I need to change my style
Been this way for a long long while
Maybe there's a few things I oughta fix
Can you teach an old dog new tricks
guitar solo
Can you teach an old dog new tricks
Well, that right
Maybe I should leave well enough alone
I might not be perfect but I'm me to the bone
I need to change my style
Been this way for a long long while
There ain't nothing that I got to fix
You can't teach an old dog new tricks
You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
You can't teach an old dog
You can't teach an old dog
You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
You can't teach
You can't teach
You can't teach

I don't know why she love me like she do
She's full of lightning through and through
She's my gold mine, she's my diamond mine

5.Have Mercy On The Lonely
Lyricist:Steve Wold
Writer(s):Steve Wold
One Two Three
Me and my girl got place to be, place to see
Y'all hear me
Guess you can say we're just doing things
That happiness and that will love bring
Have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
I used to walk the selfish way
But you end up alone, so hear what I say
Open the door, let love walk in
Got nothing to lose, maybe something to win
Have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
A shack near the tracks, a mansion uptown
No one said you're gonna get down
Rather be poor and have my honey
Than own the banks with all the money
Have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
Y'all say you want someone to love
I said make yourself somebody
Somebody you wanna love
Have mercy on your loneliness, have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
Have mercy on the lonely
6.Whiskey Ballad
Lyricist:Paul Martin Wold
Writer(s):Paul Martin Wold
To all those people living in their flats
Not so pristine
Who look up from the alley ways
That skies that we've all seen
But somehow I know that
They see it from a different point of view
The red door's painted black
The sky is gray not baby blue
So lighten up, have a cup
Of my happy golden drink
It'll taste strong to begin with
You'll get used to it, I think
It'll wash away your sorrows
Soak up your concern on a trouble
When you wake up not a single tables turn
But it's all right, it's all right, it's all right
So if you're a bit unhappy
Or you're slightly depressed
Just hum along to this song I wrote
Release some of your stress
But when I sing the chorus
There's one thing I know for sure
A nice clean shot of whiskey
Is my recommended cure
So lighten up, have a cup
Of my happy golden drink
It'll taste strong to begin with
You'll get used to it, I think
It'll wash away your sorrows
And soak up your concern on a problem
When you wake up not a single tables turn
But it's all right, it's all right, it's all right
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
So lighten up, have a cup
Of my happy golden drink
It'll taste strong to begin with
You'll get used to it, I think
It'll wash away your sorrows
And soak up your concern on a problem
When you wake up not a single tables turn
So lighten up, have a cup
Of my happy golden drink
It'll taste strong to begin with
You'll get used to it, I think
It'll wash away your sorrows
And soak up your concern on a problem
When you wake up not a single tables turn
7.Back In The Doghouse
Lyricist:Steve Wold
Writer(s):Steve Wold
With things alright for a little while
But then the story of my life
Was gonna wipe that smile
You heard the born of a bad sign
And a baba black sheep
With me in trouble
I always think that was me
Back in the doghouse
What did I do wrong?
Back in the doghouse
And I'm singing this song, well
Song of the last minute
But is the doghouse a place?
Yeah, it's more like you said
That you gotta face
When you find the doghouse
Dog, you ain't know
'Cause there ain't no escape
And there's nowhere to go
Back in the doghouse
What did I do wrong?
Back in the doghouse
And I'm singing this song, well
Yeah, back in the doghouse
What did I do wrong?
Yeah, back in the doghouse
And I'm singing this song
Yeah, back in the doghouse
What did I do wrong?
Yes, I'm back in the doghouse
And I'm singing this song
Back in the doghouse
Lordy

9.What A Way To Go
Lyricist:Seasick Steve
Writer(s):Seasick Steve
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
Twenty five years working for the state
Saved all your money, got a good rate
Always thinking 'bout that pension plan
The day of retirement, the promised land, well
Got a finish off that swimming pool
Get some umbrellas, don't wanna be cool
Remember to take them fishing trips
You never had time for, this is it
The day of retirement have finally come
Get a gold watch and your work is done
One month later your heart give out
What was all that planning about?
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
Well, they finally lay you in the ground
Your wife and the children standing around
Now they got that pension plan
Rather have you, don't you know it, man
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go
What a way to go

12.It's A Long Long Way
Lyricist:Steve Wold
Writer(s):Steve Wold
It's a long, long way
'Cause I've been there before
It's a long, long way
And I've been there before
You prob'ly won't take no advice from me
I never took none myself, you see
It's just when you get older
You'd like to pass some on but nobody's listening
And it's a long, long way
'Cause I've been there before
It's a long, long way
And I've been there before
Why do we make the same mistakes
Year after year, tear after tear?
Just when we've learned a lesson or two
It's the time when our life's almost through
And it's a long, long way
'Cause I've been there before
It's a long, long way
And I've been there before
I ain't tryin' to be no saint
Shoot I ain't even often right
But I'm still here fightin' that good ol' fight
So the only thing I'll say
Don't give up on your dreams
Or they will give up on you
And it's a long, long way
'Cause I've been there before
It's a long, long way
And I've been there before
Thanks for takin' time to listen to an old man
Your time is a valuable thing
And I ain't tryin' to preach, I'm only passin' by
And I hope you like the song that I sing
And it's a long, long way
'Cause I've been there before
It's a long, long way
And I've been there before
And it's a long, long way
'Cause I've been there before
And I don't think I'm goin' there no more
