Stop watching
I take you by the hand

Stop inside
Paul and me
We walk by

Walking silent
I saw
It was burning

Village
On fire
Was a village on fire


Jesus Christ

One, two, three, four
Oh Jesus was a man
Who traveled through the land
A hard working man and brave
Well he said to the rich give your money to the poor
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
For they layed Jesus Christ is his grave

Well he went to the preacher
He went to the law
Told them all the same
He said sell all your jewelery and give it to the poor
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave

When Jesus came to town all the working folks around
Believed what he did say
Well the bankers and the preachers
They nailed him on a cross
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave

And [hard] working people
They followed him around
They sung and shouted gay
Well the cops and the soldiers
They nailed him in the head

And they layed Jesus Christ in his grave

Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah

Well this song was written in New York City
A rich man, preacher and slave
Well if Jesus was to preach while he preached in Galilee
They would lay Jesus Christ in his grave
One, two, three, four !

Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
Hah-le, halelujah
For they layed Jesus Christ in his grave


Lady With The Spinning Head

Here she comes
Lady luck again
Figure of eight
Six and Nine again

The lady with the spinning head

Whatever the deal
She won't let me down
Wherever I go
She's always hangin' round

My lady with the spinning head
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lady with the spinning head
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lady with the spinning head

She's been gone
But I knew she'd be back
She's got the red
She put me in the black

Meet the lady with the spinning head

Took away my mind
Took away my car
Afraid to ask
Or talk about

I'm on top
When she's around
She's my ticket
Out of town

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lady with the spinning head
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lady with the spinning head


Night And Day

The tomtoms
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tick of the eye of the clock
You're standing up against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the rain drops
When the sun shines through
So a voice within me
Keeps revealing you
You

Night and day
You are the one
Only you beneath the moon
And under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It's no matter, baby, where you are
I think of you
Night and day

Day and night
Why is it so ?
That this longing for you follows
Wherever I go
In the roaring traffic gloom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Night and day

Night and day
Under the hide of me
Though such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
This torment won't be through
'Til you let me spend my life
Making love to you
Day and night
Night and day

Night and day
Under the hide of me
Oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning, burning inside of me
This torment won't be through
'Til you let me spend my life
Making love to you
Day and night
Night and day

Night and day
Night and day
Night and day
Night, night, night and day
Night, night, night and day
Night and day
Night,

Night and day

All I want to do
Is make love to you
I'll miss you baby sing it


North And South Of The River

I want to reach out over the lough
And feel your hand across the water

Walk with you along an unapproved road
Not looking over my shoulder

I want to see, and I want to hear
To understand your fears
But we're north & south of the river

I've been doing it wrong all of my life
This holy town has turned me over
A young man running from what he didn't understand
But the wind from the lough just got colder and colder

There was a badness that had it's way
Love was not lost, love will have it's day
North & south of the river
North & south of the river

Can we stop playing these old tattoos ?
Darling, I don't have the answer
I want to meet you
Where you are
I don't need you to surrender
There's no feeling
Thats so alone
As when the one you're hurting is your own

North & south of the river
North & south of the river
North & south of the river

Some high ground is not worth taking
Some connections are not worth making
There's an old church bell no longer ringing
Some old songs are not worth bringing
North (Some high ground is not worth taking)
North & south of the river


Paint It Black

I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars
And they're all painted black
With flowers and my love
Both never to come back
I see them turn their heads
Quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens every day

I look inside my self
See my heart is back
I see my red door
And I want it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away
And not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black

No more will my green sea
Go turn a deeper blue

I could not foresee
This thing happening to you.
If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me
Before the morning comes

I Wanna see it painted
Painted Black
Black as night

I Wanna see it painted
Painted Black
Black as night

Salome

Baby please
Baby please don't go
I got lies to feed
They want skin and seed
Now don't make me crawl

Please
Baby don't bite your lip
Give you half what I got
If you untie the knot
It's a promise
Salome

Salome
Shake it shake it shake it
Salome
Shake it shake it shake it
Salome

Salome
Shake it shake it shake it
Salome

Baby please
Baby what's that tune
Well I heard it before
When I crawled from your door
And my blood turned blue

Please
Baby please slow down
Baby I feel sick
Don't make me stick to my promise
Salome

Shake it shake it shake it

Baby please
Baby don't say no
Won't you dance for me
Under the cherry tree
Won't you swing down low

Please
Baby please say yes
Baby don't go away

You're spilling me
And your precious love
Salome

Satellite Of Love

Satellite's gone
Up to the sky
Things like that drive me
Out of my mind
I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite

Satellite's gone
Way up to Mars
Soon it will be filled
With parking cars
I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite

I've been told that you've been bold
With Harry, Mark and John
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday
Harry, Mark and John

Satellite's gone
Up to the sky
Things like that drive me
Out of my mind
I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

Slow Dancing

My love is cruel as the night
She steals the sun, and shuts out the light
All of my colors, they turn to blue
Win or lose

She does it slow dancing
Slow dancing
She does it slow
Dancing
All night long

Scarlet eyes and a see-through heart
She saw me coming right from the start
She picked me up, but had me down on my knees
Just a begging her, begging her please

Take me slow dancing
Slow dancing
She took me slow
Dancing
All night long

And I don't know why a man
Search for himself in his lovers eyes
No I don't know why a man
Seeks the truth but needs the lies

My love is restless as the wind
She moves like a shadow across my skin

She left with my conscience, I don't want it back
It just gets in the way

If you wanna go slow dancing
Slow dancing
She took me slow
Dancing
All night long

Slow
Dancing
Slow
Dancing
Slow


Touch

Thank you
Don't mention it
I'm pleased to meet you
Don't think I'm very good at this
Let me show

I don't wanna know
I just wanna go
down

F-f-falling
The world is by your side
Falling
Did you find a place to hide

I just wanna know
I just wanna go

T-t-touching you
T-t-touching you
T-t-touching you

She said, the twenty second floor
But I said, I can't think what it's for

I just wanna know
I don't wanna go

T-t-touching you
T-t-touching you
T-t-touching you

I'm t-t-touching you
T-t-touching you
T-t-touching you

T-t-touching you


Two Shots Of Happy, One Shot Of Sad

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
You think I'm no good
Well I know I've been bad
Took you to a place
Now you, can't get back
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Walk together
Down a dead end street
We were mixing the bitter
With the sweet
Don't try to figure out
What we might have had
Just two shots of happy, one shot of sad

I'm just a singer
Some say a sinner
Rollin' the dice
Not always a winner
You say I've been lucky
Well hell!, I made my own
Not part of the crowd
But not feeling alone

Under pressure
But not bent out of shape
Surrounded
We always found an escape
Drove me to drink
But hey, thats not all bad
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Guess I've been greedy

All of my life
Greedy with my children
My lovers, my wife
Greedy for the good things
As well as the bad
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Maybe it's just talk
Saloon singing
The chairs are all stacked
The swingers stopped swinging
You say I hurt you
You put the finger on yourself
Then after you did it
You came crying for my help

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
I'm not complaining
Baby, I'm glad
You call it compromise
Well whats that ?
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Two shots of happy
One shot
Of sad


The Ground Beneath Her Feet

All my life, I worshipped her.
Her golden voice, her beauty's beat.
How she made us feel,
how she made me real,
and the ground beneath her feet.

And now I can't be sure of anything,
black is white, and cold is heat;
for what I worshipped stole my love away,
it was the ground beneath her feet.

She was my ground, my favorite sound,
my country road, my city street,
my sky above, my only love,
and the ground beneath my feet.

Go lightly down your darkened way,
go lightly underground,
I'll be down there in another day,
I won't rest until you're found.

Let me love you true, let me rescue you,
let me lead you to where two roads meet.
O come back above, where there's only love,
and the ground's beneath your feet.
