My Life/your World
They came this mornin with a dog on a chain
They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name
My momma was a rocker way back in 53
Buys them old records that they sell on t.v.
I know chuck berry wasnt singin that to me
Mama,
Thats all right, its your world
Hey, this is my life
Shes my girl
My li fe / your world
I watch that fortune wheel
But never get to spin it
You made me promises, I dont think you meant it
If theres some sunshine baby
Im gonna get out in it, oh yeah
Mama,
Thats all right, its your wor ld
Hey, this is my life
Shes my girl

Runaway Trains
Shes up there all alone
Im down here changing lanes
Her room was dark and cold
Im listening to the waves
And Im depending on time , babe
To get you out of my mind
I guess its one of those things
You can never explain
Like when an angel cries
Like runaway trains
Like one of those times
Thats never the same
Like when something dies
Like runaway trains
She says I understand
Im used to being alone
And holding my own hand
Im stronger than you know
I guess its one of those things
You can never explain

Got My Mind Made Up
If you don't wanna love me then don't say i'm your man
Honey if you don't wanna love me, don't you say i'm your man
Oh what's the matter baby, can't you see
This is not the first time it's happened to me?
I got my mind made up
I got my mind made up
If you don't wanna kiss me, honey, then don't touch my hand
If you don't wanna kiss me, honey, you better not touch my hand
I don't quite get it, why can't you see
This ain't the first time it's happened to me?
I got my mind made up
I got my mind made up
I got my mind made up
I got my mind made up
And if you don't really need me, honey, don't say you do
If you don't really need me, honey, then don't say you do
??? something i said
Still won't convince you not to play with my head, oh yeah
I got my mind made up
I got my mind made up

Built To Last
Somewhere out my doorway
Somewhere down my block
I can hear her heartbeat
In rhythm with my clock
I want her more than diamonds
I want her more than gold
I want her more than anything
Anyone could hold
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is changing fast
Oh, but our love is built to last
She has followed me down
Along some empty str eets
She has followed me where
The rain would fall in sheets
And I know Ive been changing
Changing like the wind
I was feeling burned out
I got tired of it

Finding Out
Theres something wrong, I cant get my finger on it
I must be looking over something
Sometimes at night Ive had to fight with this emptiness
Its been so hard to see, theres something more than this
Im finding out, Im finding out
Yeah it took a little ti me to get what love was about
But honey Im coming round
Im finding out
Ive had enough of all this hard core loneliness
I dont think pain is so romantic
Im just a working man
I feel each day go by
I couldnt understan d I was too weak to fight
But Im finding out, Im finding out
It took a little time for me to stand up and shout
But honey Im coming round, Im finding out
I have to thank you baby, honey I must confess
You have pulled me from this river of loneliness
Im finding out, baby Im finding out
Yeah it took a little time to get what love was about

You Dont Know How It Feels
Let me run with you tonight
Ill take you on a moonlight ride
Theres someone I used to see
But she dont give a damn for me
But let me get to the point, lets roll another joint
And tu rn the radio loud, Im too alone to be proud
You dont know how it feels
You dont know how it feels to be me
People come, people go
Some grow young, some grow cold
I woke up in between
A memory and a dream
So lets get to the point, lets roll another joint
Lets head on down the road
Theres somewhere I gotta go
And you dont know how it feels
You dont know how it feels to be me
My old man was born to rock
Hes still tryin to beat the clock
Think of me what you will

Two Gunslingers
Two gunslingers, walked out in the street
And one said I dont wanna fight no more
And the other gunslinger thought about it
And he said, yeah what are we fighting for?
Im t akin control of my life,
Im takin control of my life
Im takin control of my life now,
Right now, oh yeah
Well the crowd that assembled
For the gun fight were let down
Everyone hissed and booed
And a stranger told h is mrs.
Thats the last one of these gunfights
Youre ever gonna drag me to
Im takin control of my life,
Im takin control of my life
Im takin control of my life now,
Right now, oh yeah

Went ridin out of town and

A Mind With A Heart Of Its Own
I remember her standing in the tall grass and cattails
Away from the windows at the end of the day
Watching the men from the landing in the tall hats & coat-tails
Shed never look different, but something would change
A mind with a heart of its own
Yeah a mind with a heart of its own
Well the man out to end us had a hurricane business
Hes raise them from babies all by his self
But his teen-age accountant had become surrounded
He drank up the party and everyone left
A mind with a heart of its own
Yes a mind with a heart of its own
Well I been to brooker and I been to micanopy
I been to st. louis too, I been all around the world
Ive been over to your house
And youve been over sometimes to my house
Ive slept in your tree house
My middle name is earl
A mind with a heart of its own
A mind with a heart of its own

Walls
Some days are diamonds
Some days are rocks
Some doors are open
Some roads are blocked
Sundowns are golden
Then fade away
But if i never do nothing
I'll get you back some day
Cause you got a heart so big
It could crush this town
And i can't hold out forever
Even walls fall down
And all around your island
There's a barricade
It keeps out the danger
It holds in the pain
Sometimes you're happy
Sometimes you cry
Half of me is ocean
Half of me is sky

The Wild One, Forever
Well the moon sank as the wind blew
The street lights slowly died
They call you the wild one, said stay way from her
Said she could love no one if she tried
But then somethin I saw
In your eyes told me right away
That you were gonna have to be mine
When the strangest feeling came over me
Down inside no matter what it takes
Ill never get over how good it felt
When you finally held m e
Ill never regret
Baby those few hours
Will grow in my head
Forever
Well its too bad, but I want you
To know I understand
Yeah, its been a long time but I dont mind
Yeah, its all right I understand
Beca use somethin I saw
