PAYOLA BLUES
------------
This one's for you Al Freed,
Wherever you go, whatever you do
'Cause the things they're doing today
Will make a saint out of you
Payola blues.
I've got the payola blues
Even though I already paid my dues.
Listen to me Mr. D.J., hear what I've got to say
If a man is making music, they ought to let his record play.
Payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.
Well, here's three thousand, that ought to get it on.
Well, thanks a lot man! I love your new song.
Payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.
And it goes like this.
I got a brand new record company, new manager too.
Got a great new record, I can't get through to you.
Payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.
How about this new Mercedes Benz, that ought to get it on.
Well, thanks a lot man! I'll play it all day long.
Payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.
I've got the payola blues, payola blues
I'm paying those payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.
WONDERIN'
---------
I've been walking all night long
My footsteps made me crazy
Baby, you've been gone so long
I'm wonderin' if you'll come home
I'm hopin' that you'll be my baby
I'm wonderin' if I'll be alone
Knowin' that I need you to save me.
I've been talking all day long
To keep my heart from sadness
Baby, you've been gone so long
I'm wonderin' if you'll come home

Knowin' that I need you to save me.
I'm wonderin', I'm wonderin',

EVERYBODY'S ROCKIN'
-------------------
When grandma and grandpa get out on the floor
They rock until they drop and then they rock some more
Yeah, everybody's rockin', well, everybody's rockin'
Everybody's rockin', rockin' to the dancin' beat.
From the shaky city down to New Orleans
The Golden Gate to the Bronx and Queens
Everybody's rockin', yeah, everybody's rockin',
Well, everybody's rockin', rockin' to the dancin' beat.
When Ronnie and Nancy do the bop on the lawn
They're rockin' in the White House all night long.
Everybody's rockin', everybody's rockin',
Everybody's rockin', rockin' their blues away.
Everybody's rockin', rockin' their blues away
Everybody's rockin', rockin' all night and day.

Yeah, everybody's rockin', everybody's rockin'
Everybody's rockin', rockin' to the dancin' beat.

JOHNNY
------
Someone wants to blow up the planet
Johnny wants to find out why
Johnny did a show in St. Louis
Love came through the sky.
Oh yeah, they were camped out,
Waiting for the sun to rise
Oh yeah, Johnny sang out
Love into the sky.
Johnny found a place out in Texas
Waiting for him to come
Made himself a reservation
And hope came, in the gun.
Oh yeah, he was flying,
Waiting for the sun to rise
Oh yeah, color by numbers
Waiting for the sun to rise.
Johnny did some time in the army
Johnny did a stint in Vietnam.
Now he can't forget it,
His mind is confused, slipping from his twisted hand.
Oh yeah, he's still back there
With one hand on the gun
Oh yeah, he's still back there
Waiting for the rising sun.
Now Johnny likes to go down the highway
The wind singing in his ears
Right up as most things go whirring by
By day everything looks clear.
Oh yeah, Johnny ride on
Gonna find a special home
Oh yeah, down the highway
Looking for the rising sun.
WE'RE GONNA ROCK FOREVER
------------------------
Down the highway, all across the nation
Trucks are moving rough, we pass the break of day
Sure looks like we're all gonna rock forever.
Rock, rock, rock.
After midnight you see the big trucks rolling
Pushing metal on down the super slab
Sure hard to tell from here where we are going
Rock, rock, rock.
Do it inside, do it outside, baby
Do it over again in the same old way
From now on we're all gonna rock together.
Rock, rock, rock.
Sure looks like we're all gonna rock forever.
The way we just keep rolling on and on
Yeah, sure looks like we're all gonna rock forever.
Rock, rock, rock.
YOUR LOVE
---------
Your love is good to me
I should be standing tall
And walking proud
Your eyes keep looking out
And your heart keeps beatin' on
Oh yeah, without your love I would surely die.
Some night when I'm alone
I get to wonder what's been shown
And your love is like a light
Showing me the way through the night
Oh yeah, without your love I would surely die.
Your love is good to me
Good to you I try to be
Don't leave me, babe
Yeah, if I get the blues
My love you'll never loose
Don't ever take away your love.
Your love, your love.
Your love, your love.
SO TIRED
--------
Time for me to show my hand
Let them know just who I am
'Cause I've been down and back again.
I'm so tired of talking to strangers,
Close my eyes and I see the danger
I feel like making some changes.
So tired of talking to strangers,
Close my eyes and I see the danger
I feel like making some changes.
