Some people say I'm no good
laying in my bed all day
but when the night times comes I'm ready to rock
and roll my troubles away
I don't care if the sun don't shine
I know I'm gonna see it trough
I don't care what nobody says
I'm tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna live for the music
give it everything you got
live for the music you know you're gonna find a lot
to ease my mind
now you may say I'm a mean mistreater
say I never treat you right
but sooner or later I'm gonna get to ya , baby
I don't wanna fuss and fight
hey baby gimme good lovin
do it to me all night long
any old thing gonna make me happy
long as I can sing my song
I'm gonna live for the music
give it everything you got
live for the music you know you're gonna find a lot
to ease my mind

Well, the first time that I met you, You were only seventeen,
But I had to put you down, 'Cause I didn't know where you'd been.
You had a long black dress, Your hair in a mess,
You didn't seem to have no class, But the look on
your face was no disgrace, I knew I had to move real fast.
Honey Child, Don't you know you drive me wild! Oh, Honey Child,
Don't you know you drive me wild! Just about to lose my mind.
Well the second time that I met you, You were just turned
twenty-one, An' all your talk about love, Love was gone, long gone.
Oh, Honey Child, Don't you know you drive me wild! Honey child,
Don't you know you drive me wild! Just about to lose my mind.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, honey child, Don't you know you drive me wild, mm.
Honey child, Don't you know you drive me wild. Honey child,
Don't you know you drive me wild. Oh, yeah, honey child,

Love me somebody, somebody love me
Take me for what I'm worth
But only love me, but only love me
Well there was a crazy fool
Who followed you home from school
Hoping you would say "Hello"
But you didn't know
That you were breaking my heart
Love me somebody, somebody love me
Take me for what I'm worth
But only love me, but only love me
Well I was the crazy fool
Who followed you home from school
I was hoping that you would know
But you had to go
Breaking my heart, yeah
Love me somebody, somebody love me
Take me for what I'm worth
But only love me, but only love me
But only love me, but only love me
But only love me, but only love me

You never give me my money,
You only give me your sympathy.
'Cause I keep on running,
There's no way to catch up with me.
I'm leaving you, don't make no fuss;
You won't even see me, oh no, for dust.
I'm running with the pack,
Running with the pack,
I'm running with the pack,
Never looking back.
You try to keep me in cages,
But baby, you got to catch me first.
You think your law is contagious,
I'll do my best, you can do your worst.
I'm leaving you, now who can I trust;
You won't even see me, oh no, for dust.
I'm running with the pack,
Running with the pack,
I'm running with the pack,
Never looking back.
All right.
Look out there.
I'm running with the pack,
Running with the pack,
I'm running with the pack,
Never looking back.
Running with the pack,
I'm running with the pack,
Running with the pack,
Never looking back.
Oh, yeah.
You can't hold me down,
You can't hold me back,
On my own way,
Running with the pack, ooh.
Never, never, never looking back, Oh.
Keep on running, keep on running
Yeah, yeah.
Moving on, moving out.
Oh, oh......

In the beginning, I believed every word that you said,
Now that you're gone my world is in shreds.
Oh, you loved me and left me,
You took all the things that I needed so bad,
I'm standing here wondering where is the love that I had?
Oh, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.
In the beginning, yeah,
There was something of love that was mine,
Now that it's gone, whoa, I'm cryin'.
Oh, the time that it takes for a love
To grow cold is a wonder to me,
I'm walkin' around with my head
Hangin' down, tell me where is she?
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you.
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you.
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told.
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told.
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue.
Now, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told.
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue, yeah.
Oh, don't forsake me 'cause I love you.
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you, yeah.

I saw her standing on the corner
A yellow ribbon in her hair
I couldn't keep myself from callin'
Look a there, look a there, look a there, look a there
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind
I took one look and I fractured
I tried to walk and I was lame
I couldn't keep myself from shoutin'
What's your name, what's your name, what's your name,
What's your name
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind
What crazy stuff she looked so tough
I had to follow her all the way home
Then things went bad I met her dad he said
You better leave my daughter alone
I couldn't sleep that night for crying
I saw the rising of the sun
And all night long my heart was sighin'
Cause she's the one, she's the one, she's the one, she's the one
Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind

Changed my mind about wasting my time,
Spending money and drinking wine.

Flew into Chicago, made a good connection
Rode up on Rush Street (?), I was looking for some kicks
We was getting higher, looking for some action
Dayton Ohio, ain't got nothing on this
We was going crazy when I saw her coming
Dancing with the Devil in her eyes
I could feel a fire, my body started burning
Baby, don't you say goodbye
Back on the road, up in New York City
Low down blues hit me, sitting in my room
Long distance operator, get me Chicago
I got to get a message, got to see my baby soon
We was going crazy when I saw her coming
Dancing with the Devil in her eyes
I could feel a fire, my body started burning
Baby, don't you say goodbye
Sweet little sister,
You know you can't resist her
She got it made in the shade
Lord yeah, sweet little sister
Your Momma never missed her
'Till she got laid, laid, laid, alright
We was going crazy when I saw her coming
Dancing with the Devil in her eyes
She was too good looking, so I started running
'Til she took away her disguise
Sweet little sister,
You know you can't resist her
She got it made in the shade
Lord yeah, sweet little sister
Your Momma never missed her
'Till she got laid, laid, laid, alright
Sweet little sister,
You know you can't resist her
She got it made in the shade
Lord yeah, sweet little sister
Your Momma never missed her
'Till she got laid, laid, laid, alright
Sweet, sweet little sister, you got it made
Sweet, sweet little sister, you got it made
I tell you
Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma never missed her
Your Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma never missed her
In the shade
Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma never missed, missed, missed her
Sweet, sweet little sister, you got it made in the shade

Fading colours, changing sounds
Shades of night come tumbling down
Bring tomorrow like yesterday
Fade away
Here I am, a wayward man
Following the light to a distant land
Come tomorrow, without yesterday
Fade away
High adventure I just begun
Fame and fortune got me on the run
Break off the way
Fade away, yeah
Oh yes I am a wayward man
Following the light to a distant land
Come tomorrow, without yesterday
Fade away
Oh fade away, fade away
