Hard Being Me Way/Moore/Mogg Can you hear me We ain't about to quit boy The bands back in town, alright And you can all juice off Show me a mountain, show me the top Show me a woman that just can't stop Hey baby set me free Well I'm stuck down here in the cellar I got shotgun in my hand Somewhere my baby's going blind And it's hard being me, Hard being me I'm dizzy like a monkey on a tree Hard being me It's hard being me I'm a crazy man I got wounds and cuts, Shining like dimes in my eyes Somewhere my baby's going blind Sometimes I wonder, Sometimes I confuse Oh baby we can loose, Oh my baby's going blind And it's hard being me, Hard being me I'm dizzy like a monkey on a tree Hard being me, hard being me I'm shaking like a leaf Shaking like a leaf on your monkey tree |
Heavenly Body Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg First changing mirrors Fly up on the wall Hi honking honey This is my call Oh I'm changing faces I guess I'm Mr. Hyde It was a hard heavenly body It was a hard heavenly body Burning like a bush fire Sinking in the mire I trapped her like a birdie Caught her in the wire And when it all comes down babe I am left sitting on your fire It was a hard heavenly body It was a hard heavenly body I am stuck down here in the street With a Chinese bone And Chinese feet It was a hard heavenly body It was a hard heavenly body It was a hard heavenly body Oh I'm changing faces I guess I'm Mr. Hyde |
Some Other Guy Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg Some other guy, has taken my love away Some other guy, better start learning how to pray The world it just keeps turning The midnight oil's still burning And you're not coming home The phone it just stopped ringing There's no late night singing What am I gonna do with this life And the moon it's still waning Up on the roof it's still raining Oh it's a mess of the blues And it ain't nothing but losing you Some other guy, has taken my very heart and soul Some other guy has dug a very big hole The cat it just keeps whining The dog it just keeps pining Wasting away The traffic lights still change But Oh this house still feels so strange And the moon it's still waning Up on the roof it's still raining But I'm a mess for you I'm just a mess of the blues Ain't nothing but losing you Come on home honey I should've seen it coming Should've started running When you changed your hair Baby's got it coming And there ain't no difference here But the house is just the same Oh darling you've gone away Ain't nothing but the blues That you've given me Ain't nothing but the blues You've given me And it ain't nothing but losing you |
Who's Fooling Who? Way/Moore/Mogg I see you every night we talk right through the doors You don't love me anymore who's keeping score And I don't want this situation getting out We're living proof we're living in this doubt Who, Who's the fool Who, Who's the fool Who, Who's cheating who I'm ain't no difference baby now since we went alone Come on home honey cos this ain't real I've got the same face this ain't no steal Who, Who's fooling who Who, Who's cheating who I ain't no angel but I am still here with you Who, Who's fooling who Who, Who's fooling who Who, Who's cheating who I ain't no angel but I am still here with you Who, Who's fooling who |
Black and Blue Raymond/Mogg He walked into the sunset He walked out of the dawn He rode that Palomino It was a one man storm Oh is this the party Ah I just got started He disappeared fell down the cracks He walked out never came back Oh black and blue What are we gonna do with you Oh black and blue I guess baby that we're through Falling down the stairs Falling out of cars Lying in the gutter Just looking at the stars Oh black and blue Who's been beating up on you? Oh is this the party Ahh I just got started It was the biggest circus in town They came from far and wide Consuela and her sisters now Couldn't hold the tide She was a girl with a diamond smile Lost herself on the golden mile Oh black and blue What are we gonna do with you Oh black and blue I guess baby that we're through Falling down the stairs Falling out of cars Lying in the gutter Just looking at the stars Oh black and blue What are we gonna do with you Oh black and blue I guess baby that we're through Oh black and blue Who's been beating up on you Oh black and blue We're stuck together With just a little glue now He was a man sad and over Caught a bus back to California Oh black and blue Look what loves done to you Who's been beating up on you Out of this cuckoos nest I guess you flew Where are you tonight Oh black and blue Who's been beating up on you Turn out the light My baby's in flight |
Drink Too Much Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg I guess that we've been here before I still have my feet on the floor This long evening's cold and bare Don't we look just a funny pair And you pull a spell on my heart honey And there's nothing I can do about it Cos I love you Did I drink too much Did we laugh too much Did I make you cry Does it hurt too much Did we hold too much I'm gonna love you till the day I die If I don't come through it honey Just let it go right Our shadows dancing across the floor I never wished for, never wanted more Your diamond smiles and long black hair You're much more baby than I ever dared And if this whole world goes crazy darlin' There's so much in my heart And I'll love you today babe Did I drink too much Did we laugh too much Did I make you cry Does it hurt too much Did we hold too much Did we do it darlin' till the day we die Holding on Holding on now Did I drink too much Did we laugh too much Did I make you cry Does it hurt too much Did we hold too much I'm gonna love you till the day I die I guess that we've been here before Oh baby now I think we know the score |
World Cruise Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg Oh come on baby one big please Give me some lovin' before you leave Lightning striking like a hammer blow I'm starting to lose my inner glow And Money don't come here anymore Honey don't sing at my door I got my leaving sticks and shoes I'm gonna take me on a world cruise Well I could be basking out in the sun Or on a bench soaking life away I might be painting a work of art Or in the church of a sacred heart And Money don't come here anymore Honey don't sing at my door I got my leaving sticks and shoes I'm gonna take me on a world cruise The jailers watch it keeps good time This is the only place I call mine And these boots are still on my feet In God I trust and I shall meet And Money don't come here anymore Honey don't sing at my door I got my leaving sticks and shoes I'm gonna be on the midnight news |
Down by the River Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg It was a blinding light A sheer tornado of pain I had a whisky fury Pounding like the devils rain Down by the river It's alright I've been turning stones Down by the river It's alright Someone's been catching a rabbit About midnight Up on a mountain side I was touching heaven I was a servant boy But I was just a killer Down by the river I've been turning stones Down by the river It's alright Someone's been catching a rabbit About midnight We don't take no prisoners here Down by the river Ain't no mystery here Mystery in this world of mine Hold on baby Hold on to this night |
Good Bye You Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg Strange is that how we look In my house now it's an open book Strange that's a place We don't go there and we don't leave a trace Well it's out of my pocket Out of control I am still in love with you baby So is it Goodbye you Goodbye me Goodbye you Goodbye me Goodbye you Is It Goodbye me Goodbye you Goodbye me Strange we still touch Do we hold on now far too much Strange is that a gift from above Oh how we live And it's out of my pocket It's out of control I still love you to my very soul Is it Goodbye you Goodbye me Goodbye you Goodbye me Goodbye you Is It Goodbye me Goodbye you Goodbye me |
Rolling Man Vinnie Moore & Phil Mogg I got the whole damn world wants to shake my hand I got a map of the promised land I got a woman with a magic touch She's half crazy, she's half dutch Come on Come on, What you got to lose Come on Come on, Take a walk in my shoes There's a neck of brandy under the bed Fifteen children that won't get fed Come on Come on, I'm a deadbeat hand I got lightning seeds in my pants I'm the kind of guy that needs to dance I'm a rollin' man |
Kingston Town Raymond/Mogg I hear they hung the jailer The messenger is dead The piano player's singing To the lovers in his bed This road is winding back And there's no end in sight No sign of our dead Lord To guide us through this starless night And through every open doorway You can choose And sometimes you win it And sometimes you lose This one's for Rosaleen With a bullet through a breast This one's for you, my uninvited guest Oh now my beauty lies So deep in her sleep Will some angel keep her spirit sweet And the simple things to say Don't always work out that way The touching of our souls They don't drift away I am going, I am going to Kingston town Fine Spanish lace and a wedding gown I am going, I am going to Kingston town Jamaican rum and a princess crown |
