I Want To Hear You Say That You Want Me
Drinking beer is lots of fun.
We love beer and getting drunk.
Cranking up the stereo.
Brings us joy and happiness.
Watching tv all night long.
Smoking grass and getting high.
Writing songs on my guitar.
Play them for the bedroom wall.
I want to hear you say that you want me.
I need to know if you're for real.
I want to hear you say that you want me.
I need to see it in your eyes.
Running to the corner store.
Buy more beer to drink more beer.
Calling friends up on the phone.
Meet them at the local bar.
Drinking beer is lots of fun.
We love beer and getting drunk.
Cranking up the stereo.
Brings us joy and happiness.
I want to hear you say that you want me.
I need to know if you're for real.
I want to hear you say that you want me.
I need to see it in your eyes.
I want to hear you say that you want me.
I need to know if you're for real.
I want to hear you say that you want me.
I need to see it in your eyes.

In The Garden
Spring will come.
And springtime will go.
The more you live.
The less there is you know.
The sun sits high.
And the sun, she sinks low.
A precious child.
Will one day grow old.
Friends will come.
(Thank ‘ya.)
And friends, they will go.
(Bye-bye.)
And you’re alone.
The next thing you know.
Lovers come.
And lovers will go.
You wear your heart.
Right down to the bone.
I’ve been alone.
In the garden.
By myself.
Been throwing stones.
In the mirror.
At myself.
I know I’ve been here.
A thousand times before.
I know I’ll die here.
A thousand times some more.
Money comes.
And money will go.
But in the end.
You’ll have no money to show.
Heroes will come.
And heroes will go.
A hero today.
But gone tomorrow.
I’ve been alone.
In the garden.
By myself.
Been throwing stones.
In the mirror.
At myself.
I know I’ve been here.
A thousand times before.
I know I’ll die here.
A thousand times some more.
(Now listen…)
The lesson is,
life comes and life goes.
And when it does,
all you gots is your soul!
And the horns sing…
Play your horn. Play your horn. Play your horn…

New York in Winter.
Embarrass the sinner.
Like red wine on carpet.
You can't hide your smile.
Music in time.
Poetry in rhyme.
Like phonograph needles.
You can't hide your lies.
Take me home, country roads.
To the place I belong.
Emerald Isle in Tipperary.
Take me home, country roads.
Echoes in a church.
Frankincense and myrrh.
Like sunlight through stain glass.
You can't hide your eyes.
Take me home, country roads.
To the place I belong.
Emerald Isle in Tipperary.
Take me home, country roads.
Squandered your talent.
With liquor by the gallon.
We knew you were special.
A pact with the devil?
Take me home, country roads.
To the place I belong.
Emerald Isle in Tipperary.
Take me home, country roads.
And, a rovin, a rovin, a rovin I'll go...
A pair of brown eyes that was looking at me...

Stay
Why you got to bring me down?
Why can't you just slow it down?
Why you got to bring me down?
Why can't you just slow it down?
You're always running for the door.
You always leave me wanting more.
Stay a little longer.
Stay a little stronger.
I got friends who treat me right.
Better than you on any given night.
Am I strong or am I weak?
Should I turn the other cheek?
Stay a little longer.
Stay a little stronger.
Why you got to bring me down?
Why can't you just slow it down?
And stay. Stay. Stay. Stay.
Why you got to bring me down?
Why can't you just slow it down?
You're always running for the door.
You always leave me wanting more.
Stay a little longer.
Stay a little stronger....

I’m On Fire
My wheels are turning and they won’t slow down.
My motor’s running and it turns to sound.
There ‘aint no one that can slow me down.
There ‘aint nothing that can stop me now.
I’m on fire.
Can’t bring me down.
Fire.
Don’t show me how.
Fire.
Can’t slow me down.
Fire.
Can’t stop me now.
I had a woman but she done me wrong.
She never ever let me come around.
If she don’t do me right, I’m movin’ on.
I’ll leave her ready but she’ll fine me gone.
I want to wake up this entire town.
I’m on fire.
Can’t bring me down.
Fire.
Don’t show me how.
Fire.
Can’t slow me down.
Fire.
Can’t stop me now.
I want to be everything little thing you need me to be.
I need to be everything little you want me to be.
My knees are shakin’ when you come around.
My heart is pumpin’ since you left me ‘round.
Ran into trouble but I knocked ‘em down.
I wanna wake up this entire town.
I’m on fire.
Can’t bring me down.
Fire.
Don’t show me how.
Fire.
Can’t slow me down.
Fire.
Can’t stop me now.
