I got a rock in my shoe and it reminds me of you Always digging right in, and getting under my skin. With every step that I take you say I’ve made a mistake. I say I wanna go left, you tell me right would be best, so what? You wanna tell me what to do and how to do it, yeah, yeah, yeah You drive me crazy, with your head so strong, Always telling me where you think I belong. Hear what I’m saying, I’ll put it in this song, you know I must be right, Because I didn’t do anything wrong. If there were fire in the sea, I’d bet you’d blame it on me If I ain’t making a sound, you say I’m breathing too loud. You put my head for a spin, with you ya never can win. If I gave into your right, you’d tell me left would be nice, c'mon! Don’t try to tell me what to do or how to do it, no no no! You drive me crazy, with your head so strong, Always telling me where you think I belong. Here what I’m saying, I’ll put it in a song you know I must be right, Because I didn’t do anything wrong. I got a rock in my shoe and it reminds me of you Always digging right in, and getting under my skin. With every step that I take you say I’ve made a mistake. I say I wanna go left, you tell me right would be best, so what? You wanna tell me what to do and how to do it, no, no no! You drive me crazy, with your head so strong, Always telling me where you think I belong. Hear what I’m saying, I’ll put it in this song you know I must be right, I must be right, You drive me crazy, with your head so strong, Always telling me where you think I belong. Hear what I’m saying, I’ll put it in this song you know I must be right, 'Cause I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t do anything wrong. Didn’t do anything wrong. No, I didn’t do anything wrong.

Cars and trucks bustin’ off the freeway Gunnin’ outta the sun like an air raid Runnin' hard, get the business done Shake it, make it and take it and get gone Move on before the shadows are long Hit it and git, and that’s it Wake up in the morning hear the 5 o'clock train Get back up on my feet again Faces say it all down in the street Can’t get a real word from anyone I meet Goin’ through the motions, just ain’t no way For anybody to live these days Broadway East & Broadway West Pavements cold, it’s black and wet This town ain’t found what it’s looking’ for yet I been listening I been lookin all round Can't find no soul in this city no more When love or money ain't taking you through the night Gotta be some way to make it right Get what you need to ease your mind Get what you need it’s right inside Everybody got something Everybody got something Going out tonight lookin’ for a jumpin' spot Stay out late till I find what I want Gotta hear a kick drum and a guitar strum Backline of cranking tube amplifiers Some saxophone and a band on fire Ain't goin home yet cause I ain’t tired Broadway East and Broadway West Day breaks on one end, the other it sets Cold at midnight lonely as it gets I been listenin’, I been lookin’ all round I been listenin’, I been lookin’ all round I been listenin’, I been lookin’ all round Gotta find some soul in this city tonight. Gotta be a little soul Gotta find a little soul Find some soul in the city Find some soul in the city Find some soul in the city

I don't need no sports jacket, I don't drive no Audi Fox Cook me a damn good breakfast, woman Give me a clean pair of socks My disposition's been relocated Somebody just sat on my hat If you can find my disposition won't you please just bring it back Too many tools in my tool-shed, find the tools that I need My place looks like Red Foxx's place, I can't find the tools that I need I'm a hairy hoarder baby, a hairy hoarder indeed Oprah called me this morning, said the film crew's on their way Doctor Phil keeps filling my mailbox, he won't go away Too many tools in my tool-shed, to find the tools that I need My place looks like Red Foxx's place I'm a hairy hoarder baby, a hairy hoarder indeed My disposition's been relocated Somebody just sat on my hat My disposition's been relocated Somebody just sat on my hat If you find my disposition won't you please If you find my disposition won't you please If you find my disposition won't you please just bring it back

Feel 04:01
I’m feeling fine, but I think you lost your mind You don’t think you don't touch, you don't feel You don’t understand the footprints in the sand The only things in life that are real You’re feeling torn & frayed, want a better day You don’t touch, you don’t think, you don’t feel Everything you said, like a bullet to my head You don’t think, you don’t touch, you don’t feel Painted face, tainted heart I knew it from the start Just wanna know what’s goin’ on Tell me now, before I’m gone Feelin’ all alone the day you left your home Can’t beg, can’t borrow, can’t steal If you find your way, welcome to the fool’s play Can’t think, Can’t touch, you can’t feel Painted face, tainted heart I knew it from the start Tell me now there’s no fear Time to get some love in here I’m feeling fine, but I think you’ve lost your mind You don’t think, don't touch, you don't feel Just think, just touch, just feel Just think, just touch, just feel Just think, just touch, just feel Feel…feel…feel (just feel)

Casinos suit me fine at 8 a.m. I like the light in there and nobody seems to care who I am The morning passes me by so agreeably More often than not by the tens and twenties So set 'em up Flo, lets give em a roll I'm on a hot streak now, I can feel it in my bones Goin' down to the bottom and it don't stop there Dim lights, small towns, I'm makin' the rounds Goin' down to the bottom, all the way down to the bttom Goin' down to the bottom and it don't stop there I got this afternoon taco and burrito spot I like to go There's a place to berth my Buick out back don't ya know Juke box glowing over the arborite And a free pay phone in the hall if you hit it just right Margaritas, Coronas, little Tia Maria Good old gals always happy to see ya Take you down to the bottom so delightfully Dim lights, small towns, I'm makin' the rounds Goin' down to the bottom, all the way down to the bottom Goin' down to the bottom and it don't stop there Happy hour finds me cross town at Frank's First in the door and up on my favorite stool...

In the warm glow of a dream or the cold light of a day If your mind should turn to me as a memory replays Would the scene you reminisce from some long gone time and place Show the sweetness of a kiss that got lost along the way? People tell me talk is cheap and I found out that it's true For every promise that we keep, we break more than just a few Got to think before you speak, try not to be cruel 'Cause pretty words don't mean a thing if what you say ain't what you do Love and forgiveness, true ties that bind Are so very hard to find, seem to be in short supply So we see time after time how the heart deceives the mind They say you reap just what you sow but I wonder if that's true Do we ever really know the true cost of things we do? I see the wicked rise so high, hold the righteous down so low Under blind indifferent skies, should we wonder why it's so? Love and forgiveness, true ties that bind Are so very hard to find, seem to be in short supply So we see time after time how the heart deceives the mind Before you point your finger, take a moment to recall Who tried to lift you up, let you down, watched you fall Love and forgiveness, true ties that bind Are so very hard to find, seem to be in short supply So we see time after time how the heart deceives the mind Yes, we see time after time it's the heart that rules the mind credits
