Weve Got Tonight
Weve got tonight
Words and music by bob seger
I know its late, I know youre weary
I know your plans dont include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
Why should we worry, no one will care girl
Look at the stars so far away
Weve got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Weve got tonight babe
Why don t we stay?
Deep in my soul, Ive been so lonely
All of my hopes, fading away
Ive longed for love, like everyone else does
I know Ill keep searching, after today
So there it is girl, Ive got it all now
And here we are babe, what do you say?
Weve got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Weve got tonight babe
Why dont we stay?

Highway Child
I wasn't born lookin' back, I can't tell white from black
Kesey next to me now darling, straighter than a railroad track
I've been so high, my mind was dry
I rent it out to farmers on the midnight ride
That ain't all
I ain't even got me a congressman I can call
All right
I seen 'em dumpin' garbage, in my rivers and lakes
I seen 'em send up John Sinclair, you know
Two joints is all it takes
Then suddenly I was in a tree
And dogs were barking up at me
can't you see
I'm so damn apethetic, I can't believe I'm free
As the senator he signs the bills you know
And he's telling us which way we have to go
Think it's time we got together and declared
When you see them coming and you get so scared
Rain is falling down, but you know I'm feeling fine
I think I'll watch the tv set, let America steal my mind

Its You
Words and music by bob seger
Just about the time I think Ive had it
Everything Ive planned has fallen through
Just about the time the whole things crumblin in
And I cant hold back no matter what I do
And just about the time I feel like screamin
And findin me a wall to punch right through
I look up and I just cant help smilin
Its you
Youre the only reason Im still here, girl
Youre the only one who keeps me sane
Somethin 'bout the way youve learned to calm me down
And see me through the anger and the pain
And just about the time Im standin on the edge
And searchin for a light to see me through
I look up and I can see it shinin
Its you
I dont really claim to understand it
I just know the way you make me feel
No one has to tell me Im a lucky man

Sightseeing
Words and music by bob seger
It was a curious sight to me
A castle older than a redwood tree
Once lived in by royalty
Who taxed and raped the land
Mostly now it was stone and dust
Long damp halls and smells of must
Faded walls and ancient rust
Built on shifting sand
And I wanted I wanted I wanted
To smash that sucker down
It was a marvelous sight to see
A redhead workin in a brasserie
Five foot nine built to a tee
Eyes so blue and bright
All the drunks were just circling round
I drank water and held my ground
Later on we did the town
And we caught every sight
Cause I wanted I wanted I wanted

Jody Girl
Words and music by bob seger
Jody girl, jody girl, spend your time today
Watching clocks spin the hours away.
Jody girl, you know the worlds
Goin around all day,
Thinking back to the things you used to say.
Didnt he put you on a pedestal,
When first you met?
Sure was some honeymoon,
Aint it hard to forget?
What ever happened to that crazy boy
With the love light in his eyes?
Used to bring you flowers every day.
Now you sit here on a cloudy afternoon
Watchin a soap opera on t.v.
Your old mans workin
And your kids are out playin
And youre not feelin too free.
Keep thinkin back, thinkin back to high school,
Them high school days.

Nutbush City Limts
Words and music by tina turner
Theres a church house, gin house,
School house, outhouse.
On u.s. 19,
Hey, the people keep the city clean.
They call it nutbush, nutbush,
Nutbush city, nutbush city limits.
25 is the speed limit,
Motorcycles not allowed in it.
Go to town on saturday,
Go to church on sunday.
Up in ... up in ... nutbush city, nutbush city limits.
Say it again...
Work the fields on weekdays,
Have a picnic every labor day.
Go to town on a friday,
Be in church on a sunday.
Up in ... up in ... nutbush city, nutbush city limits.
Little old town,
Down in tennessee.

Manhattan
Shakey Davey's got a twelve gauge in his hand
It's sawed off to the limit
He's got a vague plan
There's this liquor store on Madison
There's another one down on Washington square
He's pretty sure no one's ever seen him
Down around there
The first one's birdshot the next four are double aught buck
The last one's a slug just for good luck
He's got his works in his pocket
He wants to score as soon as he's done
He can't wait to get straight to get long gone
He puts on his long coat scribbles off a short note
Sits himself down and waits for the sun to go down
It's right around midnight and there's still too damn many people on this street
He's walked all the way from Battery Park he's got sweaty hands and burnin' feet
He's desperate for a fix
His body's screamin' "Get me high"
He bursts through the door and lets one fly
Sunrise in the park and Davey's cold as stone

Sometimes
Words and music by bob seger
Sometimes I move in chains
But I never feel the pain
I wish I could explain
Sometimes
Sometimes it goes so fast
I try to make some moment last
I watch it slippin past
Sometimes
I get this infernal need
Im losin ground
Gotta make up speed
Right now
Somethings there just out of reach
Something Im not sure I need
Something I just cant let be
Touchin something deep in me
Sometimes burnin bright
In the dark heart of the night
I think I see a light

Somewhere Tonight
Words and music by bob seger
Somewhere tonight
Someones reachin out to someone whos refusin
Someones tired of all the reasons someones using
Someone doesnt understand
Somewhere tonight
Someones thinkin back to someone who got closer
Someones realizin somethings really over
Someones thinkin its too late
Someones thinkin its too late
Theres a cold wind blowin from the north
And the summer birds are leavin
As the sun slips ever further south
The lakes will soon be freezin
And the ice will claim the empty shores
Where the ones in love went walkin
And the hard blue skies will shiver
As the winter clouds come stalkin
And unless you find someone to hold
Unless someone starts carin
