Take me now, I think I'm a simple man
Just need some lovin' and an easy living plan
But everyday now someone pulls my line
Shakes me up and says "hey you gotta get in time"

Sunny days are over and gone for good
Shape up boy, you ain't working like you should
Well I know now I'm a man out of his place
Don't have a 1980's kind of face

'cos I'm a sixties man at last I know it's true
Woodstock nights, oh where are you?
Strawberry Fields and San Francisco too
'cos I'm a sixties man at heart and baby so are you
'cos I'm a sixties man at heart and baby so are you

Flower power, you never knew so much pain
Sitting 'round, loving in and loving out again
Oh the seventies I found I hardly knew
They left me high and dry and now I know why

'cos I'm a sixties man at last I know it's true
Woodstock nights, oh where are you?
Strawberry Fields and San Francisco too
'cos I'm a sixties man at heart and baby so are you
'cos I'm a sixties man at heart and baby so are you
'cos I'm a sixties man; Bob Dylan, oh where are you?

I'm a sixties man at last I know it's true
A sixties man at heart like you
I'm a sixties man at last I know it's true
A sixties man at heart like you

See the girl sitting over there with the long brown hair
Just one look and that's all it took,i gotta talk to her

In the eyes of the world
you're a rock & roll widow
But where is the girl
that I used to know
Your friends try to blame me
but you know that it's crazy
Tell the truth - I can't take anymore
Tell the truth - I just can't take no more
Tell - Tell the truth
Or turn - Or turn me lose
Tell - Tell the truth
Or turn - Or turn me lose
I gave you my world
and you gave me nothing
But it's never enough
there's always one more thing
Can't stop what I do
it's the only thing that gets me through
Tell the truth - I can't take anymore
Tell the truth - I just can't take no more
Tell - Tell the truth
Or turn - Or turn me lose
Tell - Tell the truth
Or turn - Or turn me lose
Tell - Tell the truth
Tell - Tell the truth
Or turn - Or turn me lose
Tell - Tell the truth
Or turn - Or turn me lose
Tell - Tell the truth

A mister operator
I'm looking after number one
Look what she's done
I've really gotta talk to her
She was the instigator
I'm gonna take more care next time
Loves on the line
I gotta get my message through

Chorus
Own up take a look at y' self
Own up take a look at y' self
Own up take a look at y' self
Cause the image in the mirror don't lie

Your telephone don't answer
Your gonna need an alibi
Theres no reply
You really gotta hold on me
I still want you heartbreaker
Come back before i change my mind
Loves on the line
You better listen what i say

Chorus

Chorus (Repeat Twice)

. . .


Chorus
Too much talking tells you nothing
Tells you nothing you don't know
Let you thinking do the walking
Too much talking
Too much talking
Too much talking tells you nothing
Tells you nothing you don't know

Don't sell your story like a preacher
Together glory in their eyes
Do what you can, to understand
You know you can you do
No matter how long or what your going thru

Chorus

Why do you try to be the teacher ?
Of all the reaches for the sky
Do what you can to understand
You know you can you do
No matter how long or what your going thru

Too much talking
Too much talking
Too much talking
Too much
Too much talking tells you nothing
Tells you nothing you don't know
Let you thinking thru your walking
Too much talking
Too much talking

. . .


Honey, you believe in me
All the love in your heart
You gave me has set me free
Night after night
Like a bird in endless flight
Lady of my dreams
Your everything to me
Oh yeah !
With every breath that i take
To help forget the heartache
I know that this love is real
By the way that i feel deep inside

Thank You For Loving Me
Thank You For Loving Me, baby
Thank You For Loving Me
Oh and i can't ask for any more

Lover, i wasted so much time
When you took my hand in yours
I knew you where mine
I saw the light
No more ships that pass in the night
Now i've change my way
I want you to help me to stay in love
Somethings you never forget
Just like the first time we meet
You where a woman so wild
With a face of a child
I wanted you

Chorus

Honey, do you believe in me ?
All the love in your heart
That you gave me has set me free
Your everthing to me
Somethings you never forget
Just like the first time we meet
I know that this love is real
By the way that i feel deep inside

Repeat Chorus till fade

Uh-Uh-Uh
Let me tell you 'bout my girl
Guaranteed to make your hair curl
Doing things that only she can do
Uh-Uh-Uh
She made the world a stage
Taking care of public image
She's looking good, but then she always does
heres what she want's to do
At midnight
Oh, i'm gonna love you
Oh, at midnight
Oh, I'm gonna make you mine at midnight
Uh-Uh-Uh
Monies everything to her
Gonna get her diamond and furs
But there's one thing money just can't buy
Uh-Uh-Uh
Love waits for the witchin' hour
Sell your soul for the taste of power
Still i love you but then i always will
heres what I wanna do
At midnight
Oh, i'm gonna love you
Oh, at midnight
Oh, I'm gonna make you mine at midnight
When daylight comes to you
You hide from the world outside
Lover of the darkest night
Midnights the time to get high
At midnight
Oh, i'm gonna love you
Oh, at midnight
Oh, I'm gonna make you mine at midnight
At midnight
Oh, i'm gonna love you
Oh, at midnight
Oh, I'm gonna make you mine at midnight
At midnight
Oh, i'm gonna love you
Oh, at midnight
Oh, I'm gonna make you mine at midnight

(Scott/Priest/Tucker)

I don't wanna live here any more
The price is too hard to pay
With a little less take and a little more give
I might find a reason for staying

Chorus
Down by the waters edge
'cos theres too much gone under the bridge
Down by the waters edge
'cos theres too much gone under the bridge

Give me a ticket to the promised land
I'll still gotta settel my score
The next boat is leaving and i be there
We're the last in line we shot the door

Chorus

Now I am here in my paradise
Living my life my way
Love is the only thing that i need
I found my reason for staying

Chorus

. . .


I've been much too long in this old casino
Run out of money and luck
I gotta find a way to that lucky number
Say buddy can you give me a buck
A fortune lost when the dice was tossed
Spin of the wheel was my friend
I though i knew when the bridge was crossed
Forget about tomorrow, live for today

Chorus
I'm a hot shot gambling man
Playing my game the only way i can
I'm a hot shot gambling man
Comming on home to you
Yeah i'm a hot shot lover
Comming on home to you, yeah, yeah

I hope you understand the way i change my plan
How i've falling for a lady like you
I got three off a kind and i won the prize
And they all turned out to be you
You brought me round when the chips was down
You made the ace of hearts my friend
Now i know i'll never be on my own
I live for tomorrow, cause yesterdays gone

Chorus

A fortume lost when the dice where tossed
A spin of the wheel was my friend
I though i knew when the bridge was crossed
Forget about tomorrow gotta live for today

Chorus

Just give the lady some respect boy
She don't need your neglect boy
Do you know that if she where mine
I would give her some more time
