Well I knew a girl, she was the child of the devil
It took me so damn long to see
That she could wrap me around her fingers
Til there was nothin' left of poor old me

I had a night job down in the city
Where the hours seem to turn into days
The frozen clock on the wall it wouldn't move at all

Hey brother Jacob
I trust you're well today
You've been dealin' with the devil
And cast your soul away

Ol' brother Jacob lived 93 years
Not a second of it on his knees
He lived in a little wood shanty

The time has come to rise up shouting
The world is dying and it needs our help
Let's stop the cars that keep on spouting
And turn to our bodies and make them well

Consumer crazied crowds keep on buying
Pieces of an earth that's going fast
What I'm saying is you better start trying

.When I was young, I was told
That there was a city
Made out of gold, solid gold
And now I'm askin' you
Do you think that those stories are true?
And if you say that you do
Would you like to go and
Look for the city with me?

Day and night, sittin' alone
Wonderin' where you've been goin'
In my mind I can see your face
And the love that I thought it was showin'

Didn't know it was all a mask
And my love wasted devotion
Now I'm here and you're somewhere else

Depend on what she brings you, she's keepin' you alive
You know the price you're payin' or you wouldn't waste your time
The need you have is growin' while the feelin' makes you sing
A woman's gone and left me and she's taken everything

There's a way in which she loves you and no one takes her place
She takes away your sorrow with a warm and easy taste
She leaves you feelin' satisfied that someone really cares

Gave you money, bought you things
Gave you lovin' without any strings
So when you left me, you could have left
A little bit of my heart

Took you places, saw bright city lights
Make good lovin', ooh so many nights
But when you left me, you left

You're tellin' me that you ain't no fly by night lady
But I've seen you goin' down
When you thought nobody else was around
Well all your runnin' round is goin' to drive you crazy
You better learn to keep your feet on the ground

Fly by night lady, hey woman of the night
Do you think that it's alright, hey lady

Gettin' lucky is the name of the game
What you call it, it all means the same
Put on your good looks and your dancing shoes
Go downtown and try to shake those blues
But you know, another night
Another number, gettin' lucky

Tryin' the hot spots with the bright funky lights

Philadelphia subway poundin'
Music in my ears keeps hummin'
The rhythm of the trains
Blendin' with the band

Then it was a nervous Sunday
Headin' into a New York Monday
Another show, another one night stand

Got a new lady, little bit crazy
Never a moment of doubt in my mind
Couldn't forget her, soon as I met her
Knowin' that she was one of a kind

(1)She's the kind of woman
That makes a man feel right
When she starts to lovin'

Do you think that I'm thinkin' about you, every minute of the day
Do you think I'm cruisin' around, runnin' my life away
Do you think I forgot you, wished that we never met
Do you think that I'm wishin' that I was one man, you'd never forget

Do you think I'm trouble and out for all I can get
Do you think I'm the sweetest most wonderful man that you ever met
Do you wanna be near me, do you wish I'd stay away

I remember the first time
Yeah, down at Jefftown Creek
You and me and a bottle of wine
And the night that smelled so sweet

Came up Sunday morning
First day of the week
And I found that I had changed

If wishes came true
I wish you knew
The way I'm thinkin' of you
I see you now and again
You call me your friend
But I love you
It seems unfair
That we can't share

Once upon a time
A young man got up to play
So many things
The young man wanted to say

It used to be so special
I used to be so proud
I used to be so lonely

Drive two hundred miles
To a place I've never seen
One more bar, back to the car
And I'm gone before I even know where I've been - yeah

Now I don't know where you come from
I'll probably never see your face again
It really don't matter what your name is

Time to find the right way
It seems to take so long
When I find the right way
I know I will be strong

Because you will be beside me
Righting what is wrong
I got to have you next to me

Some men can't be happy without makin' somebody cry
And some men gotta be famous and take all the stars from the sky
And some men find the answer in a big old house by the sea
But all I wanna be is your man, that's all that matters to me

Some men gotta have money or they can't sleep at night
And some men can't be happy without every pretty girl in sight
And some boys still need mama or they just can't get along

Most of my life has been hit and run
Look for me two times and the second time I'm gone
Throwing stones at your window
Hanging by my toes from your tree
Keep me out any longer, girl
You'll make a monkey out of me

People you meet

People, stop your pushin' and try to learn
That nothin' can be gained by tryin' to hurt
We never seem to think about brothers workin' together
We always find ourselves at odds, one against the other

We got to lend a helping hand
And learn to lead with the other
We got to change this to a better world

We started out a long time ago
We didn't know what to do
Knockin' our romances, we took the chances
That a lot of us do
Well, we've seen strange places
We fell on our faces
It was all on the line
Cause we believed in what we were

There I was standing in the middle
I can lean left or right
We didn't know it would take so little
To turn the darkness into light
Looking through pictures in my mind

We saw the sea, we saw the mountain
We watch the sun sink into night

Woke up early feelin' light, (shame, it's a shame.)
Somebody got to me last night, (shame, it's a shame.)
Sat down for a friendly duel, (shame, it's a shame.)
With one-eyed jacks 'n' jokers, too, (shame, it's a shame.)

[Chorus:]
Ooh, sailor man, (shame, it's a shame.)
Ooh, sailor man. (shame, it's a shame.)

I know somebody you know
Someone who knows how to please
Thinking' maybe you got her
You think you're all she needs

I don't want to disappoint you
But there's something that you don't know
Girl's gonna leave you screamin'

You hit me just like a cool breeze
Many have said what you say
But you said it to me with such ease

I'm not sayin' I don't believe you, no
I'm just sayin' I don't know you, Susan
Susan, we'll have time to learn about each other
Susan, take your time so you know that you don't want another, no

Did you see any action?
Did you make any friends?
Would you like some affection
Before I leave again?

I've been walking behind you
Since you've been able to see
There's never been any reason

How much is a ticket back to Georgia
Time for me to fetch a home
Headin' back down a railroad track of memory
Find that girl I left there all alone

I've been tryin' to find some rhyme or reason
And I've been cryin' for awhile
But it just seems like it's open season

You know it won't take much
To change the way I feel
Sitting here all alone
The tears I can't conceal
Time has a way
Of making everything okay

Ah ah, people come and go

When I get ready I'm gonna show you
How some real good loving can be
When I get ready I'm gonna show you
That the best things in life are free

Having fun and singing songs
Making love the whole night long
When I get ready I just can't go wrong
