Cracking Up
Cracking up getting ready to go
Had enough I cant take any more
No pills that I can take
This is too real and there aint no escape
It scares the daylight making nightmares
Im chancing Im nervous
And everybodys all around me
Shaking hands and saying howdy
I dont think its funny no more cracking up
Cracking up like a worn out shoe
I aint wet but the world leaking through
Id run but Id find no place
Id laugh but its wrecking me
Make you shiver make you shake
Make a monster just like an earthquake
Everybodys having fun
I dont know how they can carry on
I dont think its funny no more cracking up
I dont think its funny no more cracking up
The dead of nighttime the crack of dawn

What Are You Doin In My Life?
Well you followed me all around new york city
Tryin to make people think I wanted you with me
I can only hope that they didnt believe you
I can t figure out why I got to deal with you
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
I didnt ask for you
I dont know how you got my telephone number
Probably some jerk try in to put me under
Some friend of a friend of a friend of mine
Baby who you tryin to fool when you tell those lies?
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
What are you doin in my life?
I didnt ask fo r you
Well this is all a little too much to believe
Youre puttin my name all around in the street
Honey where did you think this was gonna lead?
Baby will you tell me what you want from me?

Letting You Go
I used to think that when this was all over
Yo might feel different bout me
Yeah I always knew, one of these days you d come around
Now I wonder if dreams are just dreams
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
Im having trouble
Letting you go
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
Im having trouble
Letting you go
Baby look out your window
Its raining on your s ummer home
You by the fire keeping warm and dry
Theres no one as honest as those in pain
Oh honey can you see me?
Will you let me inside?
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
Im having trouble
Letting you go
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh

Rebels
Honey dont walk out Im too drunk to follow
You know you wont feel this way tomorrow
Well, maybe Im a little rough around the edges
Inside a little hollow
I get faced with some things sometimes
That are so hard to swallow
Hey hey hey!
I was born a rebel
Down in dixie on a sunday morning
Yeah with one foot in the grave
And one foot on the pedal
I was born a rebel
Well she picked me up in the morning
And she paid all my tickets
Yeah she screamed in the car
And threw me out in th e thicket
Well I never wouldve dreamed
That her heart was so wicked
Oh but I keep coming back
Cause its so hard to kick it

Insider
Youve got a dangerous background
And everything youve dreamed of
Yeah youre the dark angel
It dont show when you break up
And Im the one who oughta know
Im the one left in the dust
Yeah Im the broken hear ted fool
Who was never quite enough
Im an insider, I been burned by the fire
And Ive had to live with some hard promises
Ive crawled through the briars
Im an insider
Its a circle of deception
Its a hall of stran gers
Its a cage without a key
You can feel the danger
And Im the one who oughta know
Im the one you couldnt trust
Yeah Im the lonely silent one
Im the one left in the dust

Even The Losers
Well, it was nearly all summer we sat on your roof
Yeah, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon
And Id show you stars you never could see
Baby, it couldnt have been that easy to forget about me
Baby, time meant n othing, anything seemed real
Yeah, you could kiss like fire and you made me feel
Like every word you said was meant to be
No, it couldnt have been that easy to forget about me
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the lo sers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometimes
Two cars parked on the overpass,
Rocks hit the water like broken glass
I should have known right then it was too good to last
God, its such a drag when youre livin in the past
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometimes
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride

Something Big
It didnt feel like sunday
It didnt feel like june
When he met his silent partner
In that lonely corner room
That overlooked the marquee
Of the plaza all-adult
And he was not lookin for romance
Just someone he could trust
And it wasnt no way to carry on
It wasnt no way to live
But he could up with it for a little while
He was worki n on something big
Speedball rang the night desk
Said send me up a drink
The night clerk said its sunday man...
Wait a minute, let me think
There a little place outside of town
Might still have some wine&q uot;
Speedball said forget it man
Can I have an outside line?

Stories We Could Tell
Talkin to myself again
Wondering if this travelin is good
Is there something better wed be doing if we could
And oh the stories we could tell
And if this all blows up and goes to hell
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel
Listenin to the stories we could tell
Remember that guitar in a museum in tennessee
And the nameplate on the glass brought back twenty melodies
And the scratches on the face
Told of all the times he fell
Singin every story he could tell
And oh the stories it could tell
And I bet you it still rings like a bell
And I wish we could sit back on the bed in some motel
And listen to the stories we could tell
So if youre on the road tracking down here every night
And youre singin for a livin neath the brightly colored lights
And if you ever wonder why you ride this carousel
You did it for the stories you could tell

A Higher Place
We gotta get to a higher place
And we gotta leave by night.
Before that river takes us down
We gotta find somewhe re thats dry
We gotta run like we never run,
Or were gonna lose the light.
If we dont get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody,
Might be nobody no more
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all arrive together.
We gotta get to a higher place
If we wanna survive the weather
Well, I fool myself and I dont know why
I thought we could ride this out
I was up all night making up my mind
But now I got my doubts
I got my eye on the waterline
Trying to keep my sense of humor
But if we dont get to a higher place and

Room At The Top
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I can see everything tonight
I got a room where everyone
Can have a drink and forget those things
That went wrong in their life
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I aint comin down, I aint comin down
I got someone who loves me tonight
I got over a thousand dollars in the bank
And Im all right
Look deep in the eyes of love
Look deep in the eyes of love
And find out what you were looking for
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I aint comin down, no I aint comin down
I wish I could feel you tonight, little one
