Undercover agent for the blues

✕
He was my lover, he was working undercover
Fella knew all of the moves
He really had me romping, we were bare foot stomping
He just kept igniting my fuse
 
He was blinded by the blackness of my long silk stockings
He was rocking with an optical illusion
And this ain't how I thought it'd be
He just kept on keeping me in a state of total confusion
 
He took me for a ride rattled me down to my shoes
But I found out he was an undercover agent for the blues, yeah
 
He never really needed love from any direction, no
I was just an innocent bystander
He just kept getting kinkier, hook, line and sinker
Ju-ju-just too hot to handle
 
He took me by storm, must have been a season for the fools
So bad, he was an undercover agent for the blues

Take me to the river

Wash me!
 
I don't know why I love you like I do
With all the changes I keep going through
Lost all my money and my happiness
And I haven't had the worst of it yet
I wanna know, tell me, tell me why
I love it still
 
Take me to the river
Wash me down
Yeah, drop me in the water
Back to my fishing ground

I wanna know, won't you tell me, tell me why
I love it still
 
C'mon, river
Wet me down

If you wanna leave I won't beg you to stay

Way of the world

✕
Baby I need a hand to hold tonight
And one bright star to remind me
How dear is this life
Baby I've never known anyone like you
There's something very special about you
I can't imagine living without you
 
It's the way of the world and its motion
And no ocean can keep us apart
When the moment is right
And you're holding me tight
You capture the beat of my heart
In my heart there's a fire that's burning
And there isn't a thing I can do
I'm resigned to the fact
That there's no turning back
And I'll never regret loving you
 
Baby I will go anywhere you lead
As long as you're there beside me
Baby that's all I need
Hold me hold me and never let me go
I'm always gonna care about you
I never want to be without you
 
It's the way of the world and its motion
And no ocean can keep us apart
When the moment is right
And you're holding me tight
You capture the beat of my heart
In my heart there's a fire that's burning
And there isn't a thing I can do
I'm resigned to the fact
That there's no turning back
And I'll never regret loving you
 
You're everything I believe in
Don't ever lose the feeling
Don't ever lose the feeling no
 
It's the way of the world and its motion
And no ocean can keep us apart
When the moment is right
And you're holding me tight

Love thing

✕
Saw you there so confused
I know that i could make my move now
Treading softly i walked over to you
We talked about this thing called love
Saw your eyes open wide
And i knew your heart was in it
Let me take you there
Let me take you there tonight
 
Chorus: get on board get on my love thing
Let me drive you wild
Let me show you i wanna hear you sing
So get on my love thing right now
 
Close your eyes follow me
I'll show you a world you've never been to
Take a ride in my love machine
And i won't do anything you can't get into
What i got is what you need
And you won't do a thing about it
Let me take you there
Let me take you there tonight
 
Chorus 1x
 
I never want you to go
I always want you to stay
So come on baby come on now come on now come on
Saw your eyes open wide
And i knew your heart was in it

Chorus 1x
 

Overnight sensation

✕
Well, I guess I've been a long time
Working in the back line
Trying to make a song fit
When you know it never was mine
 
Two dollar high-heel shoes
And a honky tonk dress
In the rhythm and the soul reviews
I had a dream I guess, yeah yes
And I had to beat the stage fright
I had to cry all night
Trying to make a song fit
When you know it never was right
I said, 'Girl, get up and
Get out of this mess
 
You're going to be an overnight sensation
Going to be an overnight success'
 
And all through the badlands
Rocking on the bandstands
It's so hard in the bar bands
When there's no one there who understands
Lady luck will pass you by
And she will never say yes
 
You're going to be an overnight sensation
Going to be an overnight
Going to be an overnight success
 
I used to be a sweet little
Rock 'N' Roll singer
Chasing after fortune and fame
What's your story?
What's your payola?
Me, I'm in the music game
 
Well I guess I've been a long time
Working in a back line
I'm trying to make a song fit
I know it never was mine
 
Eh, what can I tell you?
I made a break I guess
And now I'm an overnight sensation
Over, overnight
Say I'm an overnight sensation
 
Over, overnight [8x]
Over, overnight sensation
Over, overnight
Over, overnight sensation
Yeah, yeah, yeah
 

Back where you started

✕
Baby, tell me what you're trying to prove
Playing games with my heart
Hey, now listen
I ain't got to take one more night
You're the one who broke the rules
An' I'm the one who played the fool
Now you're trying to tell me, it's alright
You should have known better than to hurt a friend
You'll never get another chance again
 
You'll be back where you started
I know you won't admit it
But you're brokenhearted
You'll be back where you started
You think it's going to be easy
But it just gets harder, harder, harder, yeah
 
You had a way with words
One look an' I was under your spell
I didn't know, should I stay, should I run
You can't deny that you told me lies
Love 'em an' leave 'em baby, that's your style
I'm not afraid to take life as it comes
You play with fire, guess you'll never learn
You messed with me baby, going to get burned
 
You'll be back where you started
An' you know how it feels
When you've been discarded
You'll be back where you started
But you think you got it made
But it won't get you far
No it won't get you far
You'll be back where you started
 
Who's going to help ya, throw you a lifeline?
I'll tell you one thing, you've really done it this time
You took your one chance an' let it slip away
You never going to let it settle down
The river's gone now all over the town
 
You'll be back where you started
I know you won't admit it
But you're brokenhearted
You'll be back where you started
You think it's going to be easy
But it just gets harder
 
You'll be back where you started
An' you know how it feels
When you've been discarded
You'll be back where you started [4x]
 

Show some respect

✕
I made a resolution and I plan to keep
My word
But I need you to make it work
You've got to read the message
Understand what's on my mind
'Cause not to see would be a crime
And we could lose it anytime
 
Chorus: we've got to show some respect
We've got to learn to protect
Don't take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We've got to show some respect
 
But I believe in working, then I believe
In a little help
Cause I'm not a light unto myself
Without a thing of value, why settle for second best
We don't know what's up ahead
And we can't let ourselves forget
 
Chorus: we've got to show some respect
We've got to learn to protect
Don't take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We've got to show some respect
 
For the things that I love about you
From the woman that you see inside
Don't let it walk out the door
Love follows every time
 
Chorus: we've got to show some respect
We've got to learn to protect
Don't take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We've got to show some respect
 

Nutbush City Limits

A church house gin house
A school house outhouse
On Highway Number Nineteen
The people keep the city clean
They call it Nutbush
Oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
 
Twentyfive was the speed limit
Motorcycle not allowed in it
You go t'the store on Friday
You go to church on Sunday
They call it Nutbush
Oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
 
You go t'the fields on week days
And have a picnic on Labor Day
You go to town on Saturday
But go to church ev'ry Sunday
They call it Nutbush
Oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
 
No whiskey for sale
You can't cop no bail
Saltpork and molasses
Is all you get in jail
They call it Nutbush
Oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
 
Little old town in Tennessee
That's called a quiet little old community
A one-horse town
You have to watch
What you're puttin' down in old Nutbush
They call it Nutbush
Oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
 

A Fool in Love

There's something on my mind
Won't somebody please, please tell me what's wrong
 
You're just a fool, you know you're in love
You've got to face it to live in this world
You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him, you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do
When he's such a good man
 
He's got me smiling when I should be ashamed
Got me laughing when my heart is in pain
Oh no, I must be a fool
Cause I do anything you ask me to
 
Without my man I don't wanna live
You think I'm lying but I'm telling you like it is
He's got my nose open and that's no lie
And I, I'm gonna keep him satisfied
 
A wave of action speaks louder than words
The truest thing that I ever heard
I trust my man and all that he do
And I, and I do anything you ask me to
 

River Deep - Mountain High

When I was a little girl
I had a rag doll
Only doll I've ever owned
Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll
But only now my love has grown
 
And it gets stronger, in every way
And it gets deeper, let me say
And it gets higher, day by day
 
And do I love you my oh my
Yeh river deep mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
 
When you were a young boy
Did you have a puppy
That always followed you around
Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No I'll never let you down
 
Cause it grows stronger, like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knows
And it gets sweeter baby, as it grows
 
And do I love you my oh my
Yeh river deep, mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
 
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
 
I love you baby like a flower loves the spring
And I love you baby just like a Robin loves to sing
And I love you baby like a school boy loves his pet
And I love you baby, river deep mountain high
Oh yeah you've gotta believe me
River Deep, Mountain High
Do I love you my oh my, oh baby
River deep, mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
 

Proud Mary

[Intro:]
You know, every now and then
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy but there's just one thing
You see, we never ever do nothing nice and easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we're going to take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
Then we're going to do the finish rough
This is the way we do 'Proud Mary'
And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Listen to the story
 
[Verse 1]
Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way that things might have been
 
[Chorus]
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
 
[Verse 2]
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
I pumped a lot of 'tane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
 
[Chorus]
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river
 
[Verse 1]
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
[Chorus]
 
[Verse 3:]
If you come down to the river
I bet you going to find some people who live
And you don't have to worry if you got no money
People on the river are happy to give
 
[Chorus]
 
[Outro]
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
 

A Fool in Love

There's something on my mind
Won't somebody please please tell me what's wrong
 
You're just a fool you know you're in love
You've got to face it to let it explode
You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man
 
He's got me smiling when I should be ashamed
Got me laughing when my heart is in pain
Oh no I must be a fool
'Cause I do anything he wants me to
 
You're just a fool you know you're in love
You've got to face it to let it explode
You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man
 
Without the man I don't wanna live
You think I'm lying but I'm telling you like it is
He's got my nose open and that's no lie
And I'm gonna keep him satisfied
 
You're just a fool you know you're in love
You've got to face it to let it explode
You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man
 
Ways of action speaks louder than words
The truest sound that I ever heard
I trust the man and all that he do
And I'll do anything he wants me to
 
You're just a fool you know you're in love
You've got to face it to let it explode
You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man
 

I Might Have Been Queen

I'm a new pair of eyes
Every time I am born
An original mind
Because I just died
 
And I'm scanning the horizon for someone recognizing
That I might have been queen
For every sun that sets there is a new one dawning
For every empire crushed there is a brand new nation
 
Let the waters rise
I've ridden each tide
From the gates of the city
Where the firstborn died
 
And I might have been queen
I remember the girl in the fields with no name
She had a love
Oh, but the river won't stop for me
No, the river won't stop for me
 
I'm a new pair of eyes
An original mind
With my senses of old
And the heart of a giant
 
And I'm searching through the wreckage
For some great recollection
That I might have been queen
For every sage that falls
There's an ancient child
 
And I might have been queen
I remember the girl in the fields with no name
She had a love
Oh, but the river won't stop for me
No, the river won't stop for me
 
I look up to the stars with my perfect memory
I lived through it all, and my future's no shock to me
I look down, but I see no tragedy
I look up to my past, my spirit running free
I look down, I look down, and I'm there in history
Oh, I'm a soul survivor
 
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
I might have been queen!
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
I know the secret combination
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
I might have been queen!
 
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
I know the secret combination
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
I might have been queen, I know the secret combination
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
I might have been queen, I know the secret combination
(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)
 

I Don't Wanna Fight

There's a pale moon in the sky
The kind you make your wishes on
Like the light in your eyes
The one I built my dreams upon
It's not there any longer
Something happened somewhere
And we both know why
But me, I'm getting stronger
We must stop pretending
I can't live this life
 
I don't care who's wrong or right
I don't really want to fight no more (Too much talking babe)
Let's sleep on it tonight
I don't really want to fight no more (This is time for letting go)
 
I hear a whisper in the air
It simply doesn't bother me
Can't you see that I don't care
Or are you you looking right through me
Seems to me that lately
You look at me the wrong way and I start to cry
Could it be that maybe
This crazy situation is the reason why
 
I don't care who's wrong or right
I don't reaaly want to fight no more (Too much talking babe)
Let's sleep on it tonight
I don't really want to fight no more (Tired of all these games)
But baby don't you know
That I don't want to hurt no more (It's time, I'm walking babe)
Don't care now who's to blame
I don't really want to fight no more (This is time for letting go)
 
Hanging on to the past
It only stands in our way
We had to grow for our love to last
But we just grew apart
No, I don't want to hurt no more
 
But baby don't you know
No I don't want to hurt no more (Too much talking babe)
Don't care now who's to blame
I don't really want to fight no more (Tired of all these games)
I don't care who's wrong or right
I don't really want to fight no more (It's time, I'm walking babe)
So let's sleep on it tonight
I don't really want to fight no more (This is time for letting go)
