I'm finding out what love is all about
Every day at three when school lets out
I'll se my baby I get weak in the knees
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
Why must she be such a dog gone tease
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
We meet the gang and go to rockin' joe's
The cats are stomping on their heels and toes
I grab my baby try and give her a squeeze
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
My daddy told me there be times like these
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
She's got a way that makes me act like a fool
Spends my money then she treats me cruel
I'm beggin for her kisses on bended knees
Give me some lovin' baby please please please
- harmonica solo -
I keep trying hard to make her mine
Some day the wind will blow the sun will shine
Until the time she puts my heart at ease
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
She lock my heart and throw away the key
There's nothin' shakin' but the leaves on the trees
She's got a way that makes me act like a fool
Spends my money then she treats me cruel
I'm beggin for her kisses on bended knees
Give me some lovin' please please please

I jumped up this morning
Right out of a dream
The front door was wide open
And the rain was blowing in from the street
The whole house felt empty
And I was alone
I could hear somebody ringing
But I couldn't find my way to the phone
I pondered and puzzled
Why all this should be
I got a sneakin suspicion
Someone's putting something over on me
Sneakin' suspicion
Creeping up inside of me
Sneakin' suspicion
Just won't let me be
- guitar break -
I looked for my baby
All over in town
I've never seen so many women
Since the day they closed the factory down
Midnight on the river
In the light of the flames
I'm staring at the water
And I'm trying to fit a number to a name
Sneakin' suspicion
Creeping up inside of me
Sneakin' suspicion
Just won't let me be

Went out walking I recall
Me and my best girl along the wall
In the long grass side by side
Where the big ships go gliding by, go gliding by
Skylark singing in the sun
Something told me she's the one
When I looked down into her eyes
I saw pictures of paradise... of paradise... of paradise
Everynight you look so mean
Staring at your tv screen
Back when we where seventeen
You turned me around irene irene
When the days got colder time went by
Dark cloud rising into the sky
I just sat there gazing on
Like a tower of babylon... of babylon
I went wandering far from home
Left my good girl all on her own
I went back there she got the power
See me through my darkest hour... my darkest hour... my darkest hour
Everynight you look so mean
Staring at your tv screen
I got lost inside a dream
You brought me back irene irene
People talking but they don't know
Where I've been to or where I'll go
World keep turning all things change
I love two girls I ain't ashamed... I ain't ashamed
All your loving it thrills me so
I can't go with you I just can't go
A thousand highways you don't live twice
Only one road to paradise... to paradise... to paradise
Everynight you look so mean
Staring at your tv screen
Thinkin about what might have been
I'll love you still irene irene
. . .

Hard time going down
I just hangin' 'round
Sweet thing good love
Thats all I'm thinking of
Time and the devil is gonna bring me everything I need
Well I don't have to worry, oh no
About the love or the money, oh no
Time and the devil is gonna bring it all home to me
No woman no cash
No place to crash
Clock strike midnight
I feel quite alright
Time and the devil is gonna bring me everything I need
Well I don't have to worry, oh no
About the love or the money, oh no
Time and the devil is gonna bring it all home to me
What's this I see
Looking over at me
Just like I said
Got my breakfast brought to the bed
Time and the devil is gonna bring me everything I need
Well I don't have to worry, oh no
About the love or the money, oh no
Time and the devil is gonna bring it all home to me

Standin' on my front porch
Grabbed her and I kissed her
Boy I was surprised when I saw her little sister
Lights out, lights out
I'm glad now the lights were out
Sister knows more about
What to do when the lights go out
Mother looked at me
She was a-peepin' through the window
The way she looked at me
Boy, I thought I was a sinner
Lights out, lights out
I'm glad now the lights were out
Sister knows more about
What to do when the lights go out
Lovin' on the front porch sittin' on the swing
I can almost hear those weddin' bells ring
Lights out, lights out
I'm glad now the lights were out
Sister knows more about
What to do when the lights go out
Lovin' on the front porch sittin' on the swing
I can almost hear those weddin' bells ring
Lights out, lights out
I'm glad now the lights were out
Sister knows more about
What to do when the lights go out
Now we're married and we bought a little house
Would have married little sister, but the lights went out
Lights out, lights out
I'm glad now the lights were out
Sister knows more about
What to do when the lights go out

Waiting on the station for the train to stand in line
Your head is full of summin' and your feet is keeping time
You can't stop moving while you're waiting for that train
Your body's pumpin' boogie and it's reaching to your brain
It's times like that you played your lucky seven
And the seven bought the time right back
Weaving through the alleyways and walking down the streets
Your bones starts shakin there's a rhythm in your feet
Heading for a place where some friends are hanging round
Riding on the yard back to the south side of town
Well it's times like that you played your lucky seven
And the seven bought the time right back
- Break - Harmonica Solo -
Down into the basement the things were getting hot
The band was getting wound up people boogin' on the spot
High headed honey said 'the lights are getting low'
Take her by the hand she want's to go go go
It's times like that you played your lucky seven
And the seven bought the time right back
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven time right back
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven time right back
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven
Lucky Seven time right back

Well well well
I thought I heard it raining
All my love trouble in my mind
Lay awake all night
Till the morning light came shining through the blind
Well well well
How long did money hold you
If all my love can't keep you by my side
Everything you need lying at your feet
And you won't be satisfied
- harmonica break -
Big bell ring
Somebody gotta go now
Rolling slow drivers dressed in black
As they passin' through start to think of you
And all my love comes back
All my love
Gone but not forgotten
Hate you now when I think of what you've done
I can't fool myself using someone else
You're the only one
. . .

You're so sweet you're so fine
How I wish you was mine
Honey I need your love
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You're so nice
You're so cruel
I'm so bad
I love you
Honey I need your love
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
Tell me pretty baby
All you're gonna try
If you say it baby
Hang on baby till the day that I'll die
That is true
I love you
I don't care what you do
Honey I need your love
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
- Break -
Tell me pretty baby
All you're gonna try
If you say it baby
Hang on baby till
the day I'll die, that is true
I love you
I don't care what you do
Honey I need your love
You'll be mine
You'll be mine
You'll be mine

Started out feeling good
Some other moment in another neighbourhood
Can't remember what went wrong
But I know I been some places and I know I stayed too long
Now i'm
Walking on the edge
Walking on the edge
Walking on the edge
Again...
Every turning that I take
There's a face in every window,watching every move I make
Keep your cool it can't be far
Take a look around you and you find out where you are
Walking on the edge
Walking on the edge
Walking on the edge
Again...
All along the wires overloaded with the static
Hear the engines gunning in the middle of the traffic
Caught up in the jam again
It really starts to get insane
Just waitin for the light to change
- guitar break -
All along the wires overloaded with the static
Hear the engines gunning in the middle of the traffic
Caught up in the jam again
It really starts to get insane
Just waitin for the light to change
Havin trouble getting through
Sometimes I wonder why I do the things I do
No need to worry it's ok
That ain't panic in the city it's another working day
Walking on the edge
Walking on the edge
Walking on the edge
Again...

Hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
Hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
Your daughter she's old enough to make up her own mind
She's got sense enough to know whether she wanna be mine
Keep your big mouth shut
Hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
I said hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
I'm in love with your little girl
And your little girl is in love with me
You know we're together now and happy we could be
Keep your big mouth shut
I said hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
Mmm hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
You say I'm not good enough
To be your daughters man
But when trouble comes her way
I'll be right there to hold her hand
Keep your big mouth shut
I said hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
Why don't you ... hey mama
Keep your big mouth shut
Now your daughter she knows what she wants
She's got what she knows about
The way that she loves me mmmmm...
Sure just knocks me out
Keep your big mouth shut
Keep your big mouth shut
Keep your big mouth shut
Why don't you
Keep your mouth shut
Why don't you
Keep your big mouth shut
Why don't you
Keep your big mouth shut
Hey mama keep your big mouth shut
Keep your big mouth shut
One more
Hey mama keep your big mouth shut
Let's go
