Dependin On You
Patrick simmons/michael mcdonald
When I was so low
You were there to lift me up
Well, theres one thing that I know for sure
Youre gonna win lifes lovin cup
Darlin, youre always there at my rescue
Dependin on you
Darlin, youre always there by my side
Youre always there by my side
Darlin, youre always there at my rescue
Dependin on you
And when I get too high
You are there to cool me down
So fine, someone to turn to
Keepin my feet on the ground
Dependin on you
Darlin, youre always there at my rescue
Dependin on you
Darlin, youre always there by my side
Youre always there by my side

Carry Me Away
Patrick simmons / jeffrey baxter / michael mcdonald
There was a place in east st. louis
It was in nineteen fifty nine
When they played they filled the streets with music
That lonely blue note music
That takes your cares away, far away
They packed the place when the band was playin
To get some joy from a smoke filled room
Through that door you could see the bodies swayin
The blue note band was playin
Some lonely blue note song, all night long
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
No place Id rather stay
If you should ever make it to st. louis
On some hot and lonely night
If you listen you can hear that blue note music
They fill the streets with music
It carries you away, far away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away

Slippery St. Paul
Patrick simmons / tom johnston
Down along the river
Where the big bulrushes grow
You find the old frog jumpin the water
He won't come up no more, babe
He won't come up no more, baby
He won't come up no more, woo
He won't come up no more, sugar mama
He won't come up no more
Smell that burnin' fire, baby
Burnin' in the sand
See that devil rise, mama
He sho' wanna take yo' hand, now
He sho' wanna take yo' hand, baby
He sho' wanna take yo' hand, woo
He sho' wanna take yo' hand, sugar mama
He sho' wanna take yo' hand,
Oh, harvest moon
Keep shinin' your light down on me
The lord reach out his hand

Wheels Of Fortune
Patrick simmons / jeffrey baxter / john hartman
Caught up in wheels of fortune while youve been asleep
Come on, give it up, you got whats comin to you
No use for you to struggle, now youre in too deep
Its gonna be a long, long time before its through
Changin wheels of fortune
Drivin us on and on
Winnin, sometimes losin
As soon as its here its gone
Im so tired of losin
But I still play the game
And I know theres no reason
Still I go on searchin just the same
Well, Ive kicked around your city
Seen your vanity
Mister society, can you hear me
You get your satisfaction and you cover all the action
But your loaded dice wont help you in the end
Changin wheels of fortune
Drivin us on and on

China Grove
Tom johnston
When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
Down around san antone
And the folks are risin for another day
round about their homes
The people of the town are strange
And theyre proud of where they came
Well, youre talkin bout china grove
Oh, china grove
Well, the preacher and the teacher
Lord, theyre a caution
They are the talk of the town
When the gossip gets to flyin
And they aint lyin
When the sun goes fallin down
They say that the fathers insane
And dear missus perkins a game
Were talkin bout the china grove
Oh, china grove
But every day theres a new thing comin

Rockin' Down The Highway (single Version)
Tom Johnston
Got those highway blues, can't you hear my motor runnin'
Flyin' down the road with my foot on the floor
All the way in town they can hear me comin'
Ford's about to drop, she won't do no more
And I smell my motor burnin'
Underneath the hood is smoke
Can't stop, and I can't stop
Got to keep on movin' or I'll lose my mind
Oh, rockin' down the highway
Oh, rockin' down the highway
Oh, rockin' down the highway
Oh, rockin' down the highway
The highway patrol got his eyes on me
I know what he's thinkin' and it ain't good
I'm movin' so fast he can barely see me
Gonna lose that man, I know I should
I gotta kick in my pedal
Make my Ford move a little bit faster
Can't stop, and I can't stop

Nobody
Tom johnston
Evil ways of practice may surround you
Callin on your inner core of life
But your father was just a complex man of busness
And your mother merely portioned out your fright
But run the risk of a sudden loss
You got no mama to bear your cross beside you
Uh huh, uh huh
As midnight angels shine their wings
And time begins just bo build a wall around you
Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me
Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me
Settin out on a voyage down to jenner
Ive given all Ive got to help the cause
Need a place just to settle out my pressures
A place where you and I can sit and pause
So I can see the sky at night
Without a fear of hidden light to blind me
Mm, mm
And so you see the path is clear

Can't Stand To Lose
John Cowan, Rusty Young
Warner Chappell (BMI) / Warner Chappell/Music Cabin Music (ASCAP)
If you can't stand to lose
Don't stand in the way.
Hey don't you think it's time to say?
Tell her the truth now, don't be afraid.
Tell her she's the only one
You can't stand to lose.
It's alright if you're feelin' like
There's something that you need to say.
'Cause the only words that she hasn't heard
Are the very ones that stand in your way.
So just let your heart tell her what's on your mind
Even though you're afraid of what she might find.
If you can't stand to lose
Don't stand in the way.
Hey don't you think it's time to say?
Tell her the truth now, don't be afraid.
Tell her she's the only one
You can't stand to lose.
