Five Long Years

(by eddie boyd)
Have you ever been mistreated? you know just what Im talking about.
Have you ever been mistreated? you know just what Im talking about.
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out.
I got a job in a steel mill, shucking steel like a slave.
Five long years, every friday I come straight back home with all my pay.
Have you ever been mistreated? you know just what Im talking about.
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve to put me out.
I finally learned my lesson, should a long time ago.
The next woman that I marry, she gonna work and bring me the dough.
Have you ever been mistreated? you know just what Im talking about.
I worked five long years for one woman, she had the nerve,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve,
She had the nerve to put me out.

No Alibis

By jerry lynn williams
I beg your pardon, hello darlin
This is me youre talkin to
Sit down and tell me about it
You dont have to shout it at me
Tell me what you really want to do
Dont give me no alibis
No untrue stories youre trying to justify
Dont want no alibis
Just another reason for another lie
Mountain gets steeper
The hole you dig gets deeper
You better stop and climb out
cause Im trying to give it all to you
Baby I can see right through you
Sometimes you lose what its all about
Dont give me no alibis
Cant go through life trying to justify
Dont want no alibis
Just another reason for another lie

Hold On

By eric clapton and phil collins
Deep down in the dead of night I call out your name.
It seems now that nothing is right, theres nothing but pain.
If only Id told you I love you, now all I can do is...
Hold on, hold on to the feeling.
Youve got to hold on, hold on to the feeling.
I dont feel right on this sad night.
Lord, Ive got thistles growing in my pillow.
If you could believe in me, then I could be strong,
And then we could set our love free and right all these wrongs.
Youll know when I touch you how much you still mean to me, baby.
Chorus
Hold on, hold on.
Just give me one more chance.
Please give me one more chance.
Dont tell me our romance is through.
Chorus
Hold on, hold on to the feeling.
Hold on, hold on to the feeling.
Youve got to hold on, hold on to the feeling.

Superman Inside

By eric clapton, doyle bramhall ii & susannah melvoin
Living, loving, aint going to waste my life.
Singing music, someday the sun dont shine.
I dont want to be the one,
The one that can never say,
I need to let it out, wont you let me in.
Give it all up, surrender thankfully.
Fall down on my knees, my hands open wide.
I dont want to be the one,
The one that can never say,
I need to let it out, wont you let me in.
Look in the mirror, even with a broken heart Im fine.
Keep on pushing, getting closer to peace of mind.
Look in the mirror, even with a broken heart Im fine.
Living is so sweet now with superman inside.
No more running, aint going to hide away.
Im standing outside in the pouring rain.
cause I dont want to be the one,
The one that can never say,
I need to let it out, wont you let me in.

Breaking Point

By jerry lynn williams and marty grebb
Well I just dont get it
Cant make the pieces fit
I might just as well forget it
But my heart wont let me quit
You say its only a part of love
Thats right
But I get a little worried sometimes
When I start to lose
Tired of holding it together
When I know Im going to blow another fuse
Im at my breaking point
My breaking point
Im at my breaking point
My breaking point
Well youre never gonna get it
If you dont get up and try
Try and spread those wings around me
Honey let me see you fly
You say its only a part of love

Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

By h. g. demarais
Good morning, little schoolgirl.
Good morning, little schoolgirl.
Can I go home with you?
Wont you let me go home with you,
So I can hug, hug, squeeze, squeeze?
If you let me I can tease you baby.
Hey, hey hey hey. hey hey hey hey. hey, yeah.
Lets dance, little schoolgirl.
Lets dance, little schoolgirl.
Wont you let me take you to the hop, hop,
Have a party at the soda shop
So we can do the twist, do the stroll
To the music of the rock n roll.
Hey, hey hey hey. hey hey hey hey. hey, yeah.
First verse
Good morning, little schoolgirl.
Good morning, little schoolgirl.
Can I go home with you?
Wont you let me go home with you?

Presence Of The Lord

By eric clapton
I have finally found a way to live just like I never could before.
I know that I dont have much to give, but I can open any door.
Everybody knows the secret, everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live in the color of the lord.
I have finally found a place to live just like I never could before.
And I know I dont have much to give, but soon Ill open any door.
Everybody knows the secret, everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a place to live in the presence of the lord.
In the presence of the lord.
I have finally found a way to live just like I never could before.
And I know I dont have much to give, but I can open any door.
Everybody knows the secret, I said everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live in the color of the lord.
In the color of the lord.

By maceo merryweather
Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord.
It hurts me so bad for us to part.
But someday baby,
I aint gonna worry my life any more.
Youre on my mind every place I go.

Run So Far

By george harrison
You fly
Out as your smile wears thin
I sigh
Knowing the mess youre in
And you know that you cant get away
And you know you cant hide it from yourself
Lonely days, heavy heart
No escape, can only run so far
I know
Something I ought to say
Stuck here
Trying to find a way
And you know that you cant get away
And you know you cant hide it from yourself
Lonely nights, blue guitar
No way out, can only run so far
Lonesome tears, at the bar
One way street, can only run so far
I pray
