Somebody To Roll: Goin' out, got some time to use Baby, baby, baby, I just can't lose Truckin' round from town to town Got to get my rocks off the ground Going up, I've been down so long All I need is just one good song Take me out of this dead end gig Get my shot at some of the big If you want to rock If you want to rock You got to find somebody to roll I just signed my life away The record company's got to pay Got to chase that billboard bullet Nothin' left but to go out and do it If you want to rock You got to find If you want to rock You got to find somebody to roll Somebody to roll Goin' out, got some time to use Baby, baby, baby, I just can't lose Truckin' round from town to town Got to get my rocks off the ground If you want to rock You got to find somebody If you want to rock You got to find somebody to roll Somebody to roll |

Down Home Girl: (Jerry Leiber, L. Butler) Lord I swear, the perfume you wear Is made out of turnip greens And every time that I kiss you girl It tastes like pork and beans Even though you're wearin' them Citified high heels I can tell by your giant steps That you've been walkin' through cotton fields Ohhhhhh, you're some down home girl Your shoes are green, your dress is red And your wiggy head is powder blue But underneath all of that mess, Well you're still the same old messy you You're sittin there in that fancy chair Just drinkin' champaigne like a movie star When ya oughta be sittin' on a sidewalk Drinkin white lightnin' Out of a jelly jar Oh, you're some down home girl Dimples in your pretty cheeks And dimples in your knees You walk by and baby I Can smell magnolia trees You tell me you're from new york baby But I know you're from way down south I can hear a mississippi mama Evey time you open up your mouth Oh, you're some down home girl Oh, you're some down home girl |

Flying: Here I am flying Looking down at mother earth below Above me only blue skies Below me is a cotton candy world Here I am dreaming Plane I'm on flies gently as a bird Captain said something But I never heard single word Here I am flying Look above you I'll be watching you Maybe you won't see me But soon I'll be flying Soon I'll be flying home to you Gazing at the sunrise Homeland sure looks green far down below Now we're almost landed I can see the hostess by the door Here I am flying Look above you I'll be watching you Maybe you won't see me But soon I'll be flying Soon I'll be flying home to you Won't be long 'till I see Bridges on our river Looking at the old familiar lights Won't be long 'till we'll be Making up for countless sleepless nights Here I am flying Looking down at mother earth below Above me only blue skies Below me is a cotton candy world Here I am flying Look above you I'll be watching you Maybe you won't see me But soon I'll be flying Soon I'll be flying home to you |
