Migration
Distant hands in foreign lands
Are turning hidden wheels
Causing things to come about
Which no one seems to feel
All invisible from where we stand
The connections come to pass
And though too strange to comprehend
They affect us nonetheless, yes
Once again a time of change
O the change makes music
And the children will dance
See the pieces of the picture rearrange themselves
It feels just like a symphony to me,
With nothing left to chance
Just look over your shoulder
Its out of you hands
Its over for now
Leave behind what you can
You can always return
The rhythm remains unbroken

Hard Times
Weve seen some hard times, hard times
Holding it together aint always easy
An angry man, hungry woman
Theyre driving each other crazy
Its so low down, show down
Theres nothing else safe to say
Babys on the town, babys looking round
Talking bout walking away
Dont let go
Got to give it one more chance
Weve got to hold on
Loving me may not make much sense
But Im gone on you, baby
Baby, Im gone
And I want you back again
I may be wrong for you, baby
Maybe Im wrong
But I love you just the same
Now, weve got to hold on, got to hold on
Weve got to hold on, got to hold on

If I Keep My Heart Out Of Sight
If I keep on talking now
Ill only start repeating myself
And all I can say is
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
If I slip and tip my hand
Im certain to scare you away
Then what would I say
Id be hurting Im certain
Id be uncool to let you know that youre the one
The fool who jumped the gun
cause Ive been advised by other guys
Youve left behind
Your goodbyes are somewhat unrefined
But if I play my role just right
Tonight could be my lucky night
And you could be mine
If I present it to you

Machine Gun Kelly
Ill tell you bout machine gun kelly
He rode along the outlaw trail
Machine gun kelly was a simple man
But the woman was as hard as hell
(chorus)
Watch out machine gun
Dont let her run you round
Dont let a woman put you six feet in the ground
Machine gun
Ill tell you bout katherine kelly
Tired of being such small time
Figured theyd kidnap a rich mans son
And make it in the world of crime
- chorus -
Youd better watch out machine gun kelly
Careful of what you do now
If you keep listening to your old lady
Aint no telling whatll happen to you now
Machine gun
The government boys they came for machine gun

Going Around One More Time
My heart had been broken
And I couldnt take no more
I shuttered up my windows
And I bolted tight my door
Then I took one look at you
And I nearly lost my mind
Chorus:
Now Im going round going round
Going round going around one more time
Yes Im going roung going round
Going round goung around one more time
Betty was a little heartbreaker
It didnt quite work out
She did a number on my confidence
I was riddled with self doubt
I said thats it Im through I quit
The juanita she looked so fine.
Chorus
round and round in a circle
Its always the same

B. S. U. R.
Shes been holding on too long
Hoping Im gonna change
Giving it up just a little bit more
Each time I come home
Looking and acting strange
Putting her down for putting up with me
(chorus)
Be as you are
As you see as I am I am
Be as you are
As you see as I am I am
Do you think you might improve me
Trying to take control
Watching every little thing I do
Just like a bleeding movie
Just like a leading role
Mama, this aint me and I dont
Believe thats you
- chorus -
First you make believe

The Blues Is Just A Bad Dream
A tree grows in my back yard
It only grows at night
Its branches theyre all twisted
Its leaves are afraid of light
They say the blues is just a bad dream
They say it lives upside your head
But when its lonely in the morning
Youre bound to wish that you was lying dead
Theres winds out on the ocean
Theyre blowing just as they choose
But then winds aint got no emotion, baby
And they dont know the blues
They say the blues is just a bad dream
They say it lives upside your head
But when its lonely, lonely in the morning
Youre bound to wish that you was lying dead
My mind is rambling and rambling
Just like some rolling stone, no
Since that nightmares come to stay with me, baby
My thoughts just dont belong

Everybody Loves To Cha, Cha, Cha
Took my baby to the hop last night
What to my surprise
When we got there she hit me with the news
Right between the eyes
She said she couldnt do the cha, cha, cha...
I told her not to worry now
Theyd play some other dance
But we sat there for an hour and a half
And we never got a chance
cause every song they played was the cha, cha, cha...
I told her not to worry
Theres still one thing we can do
Let me take you by your hand tonight
I want to teach this dance to you
I taught my baby how to cha, cha, cha...
We kept on dancing for an hour or two
What do you think Id see
We hadnt practiced for a time or two around
She was doing it better than me
You know my baby loves to cha, cha, cha...

Company Man
It seems youve been living on your own
Lonely and free
Looking to make yourself known
Same as me
Well I see you in the public eyes
I see youre looking fine
The boy would be a businessman
And he signs the bottom line
(chorus)
Singing company man, do what you can with my name
Rocknroll, man here I am
Im stacking my claim to fame
Hes got the smiling face of a friend
Still youre not quite certain you know him
The smile turns into a grin
What do you owe him
You know you owe him
So if theres something you do well
Something youre proud of
Better to save some for yourself

Is That The Way You Look?
(excuse me? excuse me, yes? )
Is that the way you look?
Is that the way you look?
Is that the way you look?
Is that really the way that you look now?
Oh darling, darling
Is that the way you look?
Is that really your eyes?
Is that really your hair?
Is that really the way you walk on by?
Are those the clothes you wear?
Oh darling, darling
Is that the way you look?
Woh baby, oh baby
Woh baby, baby, baby
I got the question for you
Woh baby, oh baby
Woh baby, baby, baby
Tell me now is it true?
Is that the way you look?
