1. GOODBYE GIRLS
We're setting out to make it
Better look out, girls
The curtain's down, who's around
Looking for thrills
All we need is a place
To shack up and that's a fact
We've heard your style
And we ain't coming back
We're gonna break and take
All the little ladies we can find
From Saint-Tropez to the 'Frisco Bay
With our lies
Then we'll be getting on
A midnight train
Don't come crying or complaining
Turn us loose
And maybe we'll come again
*Well, it's goodbye girls
We gotta say goodbye again
We told a few white lies again
And we're sorry
Well, it's goodbye girls
We gotta say goodbye again
We told a few white lies again
And we're sorry for what we've done
Maybe we'll be back
So I wouldn't go to sleep
Maybe we'll keep on trucking
Then start counting sheep
But don't hide behind those shades
Come on and break right out of your cage
And have some fun
Tomorrow we'll be gone
(*Repeat 2 times)
2. SNEAK ME IN
Sneak me in, wake me up
Turn me down, sneaking me out
Sneak me in, shake me up
Turn me down, sneaking me out
If you say "yes" I won't say "no"
But when I wanna stop
You say "let's go"
Sometimes you're hot
Most times you're cold
Nobody told me but I gotta know
Oh babe, you -
(* Repeat)
You move all around
... got you down
No doubt it worried me
To .....
To show them how
Two lovers show
Nobody told me but I got to know
Ooh baby -
(*Repeat 2 times)
3. FOXY LADY
Been driving around
For a dime or a buck
I've been blowing my time
Really stretching my luck
Been dancing away
At those rock and roll licks
I've been saving no money
But I sure had some kicks
The day that the foxy
Lady came by
I was throwing the shade
And she gave me the eye
She was selling her charm
With a tip, with a smile
I could feel her vibration
Right on the aisle
*Come on and take me
Come on and break me
Come on and shake me
Right through the night
Come on and take me
I know you'll wake me
You really make me
Feel it all right
**I'm gonna take you
I'm gonna break you
I'm gonna shake you
Right through the night
I'm gonna take you
I'm gonna wake you
I'll really make you
Feet it at right
Yeah, through the shadow
She came creeping backstage
I could see her pass by
Through my Polaroid shades
Smell that cheap perfume
When she hit the deck
With the A & R man
With a piece on his neck
Ready, my dear
(*Repeat)
(** Repeat)
I wanna take you
I wanna break you
I wanna shake you
Right through the night
I wanna take you
I wanna wake you
I wanna make you
Feel it all, feel it all right
4. LOVE HYMN
I knew, I knew that you loved me
A long, long time ago
We were so good together
Mama, mama, but was it so
I found out
What her life was about
I checked it out
But when I turned around
You were gone
Drinking around now
Sister
Lately you've got it wrong
*Too late I started making amends
I've been wasting so much time (yeah)
This is a hymn grown so full of doubt
Bind me to you
It's a love hymn, love hymn
Love hymn, love hymn
Love hymn, love hymn
Love hymn, love hymn
I feel, feel you still want me
I hope, hope and I pray
I know, know you're no angel
Hey babe, you're heading that way
Now I know
What her life is about
I checked it out
But when I turned around
You were gone
Drinking around now
Sister
Lately you've got it wrong
(*Repeat 2 times)
Love hymn, love hymn (Repeat)
5. STARDANCER
I'll tell you again
Like I told you before
You gave me your love and some more
Something to think about
Out on the road
When I open the medicine jar
*You still show up every time
The band wagon hits the town
Move your head, spread your legs
Where the stardust lies around
**You're a stardancer
You've got the stars in your eyes
You're a stardancer
You make me hot for the ride
For the ride (For the ride)
That you've taken so many on
For the stars
That you've been stardancing on
You gave me heaven
And you gave me hell
I ain't got time to complain
Making love on the hotel bed
Will never be the same
(*Repeat)
(** Repeat)
You're a star dancer (Repeat)
You're a star, you're a star
You've got a dance, dance, dance
You're a star, you're a star
(** Repeat)
6. INDIAN SUMMER
It was an Indian Summer
And the sun was on high
I traveled cross mountains
And rivers run dry
I was a young man so hungry for love
Searching where no man has been
Until I rode into the valley below
Where I first had my Indian dream
A blanket of stars
And the moon was on high
She lay down beside me
Her eyes were on fire
I gave her my soul for a lifetime
She gave me her love for a night
I woke when the sunrise
Set the valley aglow
Sweeping my dreams of her out of sight
Leaving my dreams of her with the night
Yeah
When I first saw her face
I got a loving feeling
When I first saw her face
I had a loving time
**She came and through the night
I got the feeling
Through her before the light
And left me reeling
When I first saw her face
She made me feel all right
Helping me through the night
It was an Indian Summer
And the sun was on high
I'll never forget
The enchantment that night
I was a young man so hungry for love
I've been where no man has been
I'm still in search
Of that valley of love
Where I first had my Indian dream
How I long for my Indian dream, yeah
(* Repeat)
(**Repeat)
When I first saw her face
I got a loving feeling
It was a hot summer night
When I first saw her face
I had a loving time
(** Repeat)
When I first saw her face
I got a loving feeling
It was an Indian Summer night
When I first saw her face
I had a loving time
(**Repeat and fade)
7. DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT I LIKE
You were a good time girl
You knew just what I like
The silver spoon around your neck
Kept you satisfied
*You made me so happy
Took all my troubles away
You (We) were working out until
The joker came to play
**Then something changed inside
You started to cheat
You started to lie
It got me so bad this time
I treat you nice
***'Cause you know what I like
(Yes, you know)
Ooh I like a good vibration
(Don't you know)
And I need your inspiration
So good for me
'Cause you know what I like
(Yes, you know)
Ooh I like a good vibration
(Don't you know)
And I need your inspiration
It's good for me
But when I was gone some time
I heard you were moving around
But that was okay by me
Whenever I came home
(*Repeat)
(**Repeat)
(*** Repeat 2 times)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
8. COSMIC CRUSADER
The captain says
We must leave at dawn
To find another star
So life goes on
Our sun is dead
The time has come to leave
Take a new home
'Cause life must go on
We'll ride to glory
In a spaceship
To find another Earth
That still some keep
We'll bring the word of the law
With beaming sun
Black nights are here
And you've closed the door
And what have we come here for
**Fight, fight for the sun
(With) Every single breath we take
Fight, fight for the sun
Every single move we make
We've got to find a place
Got to find a place to pray
With a love like ours
We'll surely find a way
Ten thousand haloes
Searching for the sun
Ten thousand light years
We journey on
(*Repeat)
(**Repeat)
We've got to find a place
Got to find a place to pray
With a love, yeah
Got to find a way
Got to find a way
