Oooo baby, I want you to notice when I leave
Oooo baby, I want you to miss me when I'm driving East
I got some change in my pocket
I got some blood on my hands
I don't want to be with you
If I can't be your man, but I'll miss you
Every night of the week
CHORUS
I got 20 different shotguns in the back of my truck
And I wanna be with you but I'm running outta luck
And I'll miss you every night of the week
Ooo baby, I want you to love me like you do
Ooo baby, I want you to squeeze me like you would
Oooo baby, I need you to know right now
I need you to know right now
That you can call me, baby, anytime, anytime that you like
Yeah you can call me, baby, anytime, anytime that you like
CHORUS
Driving East
Driving East
I'm driving, I'm driving
Driving East

101 Songs of Lost Love
05:06
|

|
You say, you don't what it means for me to say
That it's meant to be
And I, I don't know just what else that I can say
To make you believe
If I could write you 101 songs of lost love
I would do it but you're right here
If I could write you 101 Japanese love songs
I would do it, for you, my dear
Yeah, you, you feel like you've come all this way for nothing
You tell me that you're feeling kind of blue
You say you don't know how you'll make it through
And I, I'm watching you go through all the motions
Watching you work through all the pain
Watching you from across the way
Knowing it's me you're looking for
If I could write you 101 songs of lost love
I would do it but you're right here
If I could write you 101 punk rock love songs
I would do it, it’s all too clear
Yeah, you, you don't know just what I am going through
You don't believe what I believe is true
Yet I'm seeing it in everything you do
And I, I'm watching the way your body moves
Knowing that it's me you're moving it to
This merge of you and I is bound to happen
This dance is about to begin
If I could write you 101 songs of lost love
I would do it but you're right here
And I will find you 101 ways or another
To be with me right now right here
101, 101, 101, 101
(gonna write you a love song)
You say, you don't what it means for me to say
That it's meant to be

Now everywhere across the world
There is a boy who needs a girl
And everywhere across the land
There is a girl who needs a man
Why don't we get together and talk about this?
For our mutual benefit?
Don't you wanna try to make love tonight?
Don't you think we ought to just talk about keeping alive?
You wanna keep it alive (x5)
CHORUS:
Don't
Stop me
You keep this feeling alive
You keep this feeling alive
Everywhere across the globe
There is a people searching for some hope
And everywhere across the land
There is someone who needs a helping hand
Why don't we get together and talk about this?
For our mutual benefit?
Don't you wanna try to make peace tonight?
Don't you think we ought to just talk about keeping alive?
You wanna keep it alive (x5)
CHORUS
And everywhere across the universe
There's spheres of light contributing a verse
And everywhere across the galaxy
There's hope and wonder as far as I can see
You gotta keep it alive (x4)
CHORUS
You keep this feeling alive (x4)
CHORUS
(Ooo driving me crazy)
(Hey lovely lady!)
(Ooo you're driving me crazy)

This love is so slow
I just can't quite get enough
And back at the party, where everyone wants you
You got what you can came for (woe woe woe)
If that's what it is, if that's what you wanted
If that's what you came for (woe woe woe)
CHORUS (repeated): Baby, oh my baby
Now I'm here all alone
Waiting for you to come home
And back at the party you got what you came for
You got what you wanted (woe woe woe)
If that's what it is, if that's what you wanted
If that's what you came for (woe woe woe)
CHORUS (repeated)
And back at the party, where everyone wants you
You got what you came for
You need some, you want some, everybody needs some

The Shop, The Pawn Shop

(The Shop) x3
I was working at the corner store
When walked in this paramour
He looked like he'd just done the deed
Tried to pay for his beer with weed
He laughed it off and said, “You're alright”
I rang him up, and said, “Have a good night”
He said, “Tell anyone gives you, a hard time:
You know The Shop, The Pawn Shop.”
I was stunned, lacked words to say
Thanked him much and he was on his way
As he left he said, “Say my name.”
It was The Shop, The Pawn Shop

Mr. Happy
03:40
|

|
I'm always happy when you're down
'Cause there's nowhere to go but up
I always smile when you frown
'Cause there's nothing to do but turn it upside down
CHORUS:
You can take your life into your hands and turn it all around
It's all too easy to get lazy and let it get you down
I'm always happy when you're down
'Cause there's nowhere to go but up
You come undone, I laugh out loud
Because I know that there's a better way you've found
CHORUS
I'm always happy when you're down
'Cause there's nowhere to go but up
And when you know you've hit the ground
Then know that I'll be there to cheer you on so proud (Go!)
CHORUS
(continued)
It's the beginning not the end
And you have me as your friend
And together, in the end, we'll work it out
(Don’t let it get ya down, no no)
(Don’t let it get ya down, don’t let it)
(Don’t let it get ya down!)

Ladything
04:26

She met me down on Jefferson, she was so fine
I asked her to join me for coffee, but she preferred wine
She made me feel like an animal, but she gave me the time
Didn't know what to say to her, but she said she was mine
CHORUS:
She was my ladything
She had her collar popped just like a pimp
Made me so satisfied that I cried
She was my ladything
She was so confident, she was an intellectual
I tried to keep my cool for her, she made me feel so sexual
We had a moment together I'll never forget
Everything felt so electric when our bodies met
CHORUS
Oh, I'm only half the man I try to be in her arms
She always does her best to comfort me with her charm
She soothes my savage soul, turns misery into bliss
She took my broken heart and healed it up with her kiss
She was my ladything
She had her collar popped just like a pimp
Left me so satisfied that I died
She was my ladything

Sitting right here, wasting the day away
Sitting right here, won't you come talk to me?
Would you like to have some tea with me?
I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting, for my girl
Come sit right here, right here beside of me
Come sit right here, isn't that much more comfortable?
Would you like to tell me about your day?
I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting, for my girl
Sitting right here, listening to every word
Sitting right here, enjoying your company
Would you like to play a little game?
I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting, for you girl
Time to go now, thank you for your company
Time to go now, put a kiss your daddy's cheek
Would you go into this world alone?
I'll always be there waiting for my girl
(For my girl)

Life is sweet
Funny indeed
You hold on to something your whole life and then you lose it
That loss defines your whole life, gives meaning to it
You’re delusional if you think you can laugh without crying
You’re delusional if you think you can live without dying
Life is sweet
Funny indeed
You spend all your wakened days chasing a dream
Only to find it’s not what it seems
You’re delusional if you think you can win without trying
You’re delusional if you think you can soar without flying
Life is sweet
Funny indeed
You’re born into this world, you get soiled
Take off all your clothes
'Cause you can’t get clean without getting naked
You’re delusional if you think you can walk without falling
And you can’t have spring without autumn

Cliché
02:46

|
When you get to the bottom line don't be wasting time
Cut through the red tape, that's a load off of my mind
Clear out all the clutter, invention is your mother
Yeah it is what it is, get your mind out the gutter
CHORUS: Cliché
Why must you be this way?
Everybody's talking 'bout think outside the box now
Will they, won't they? doesn't really matter anyway
Get yourself a new look post it up on Facebook
Ut oh, here we go, narcissism overload
CHORUS
How many people wanna be a true believer in a nutshell
YOLO, FOMO, a living hell?!
At the end of the day you express your dismay
Actually, actually, actually
CHORUS

Find Your Own Way
03:06
|
|||
|
When I was a child I had dreams made out of plastic
An open world for my mind to create
As I grew much older I found something more fantastic
How strange but true the real world behaved
CHORUS:
Listen to the sound
You can feel your heartbeat deep inside you
It longs to guide you true
Listen to the sound
You can feel your heartbeat getting stronger
To help get you through
When I was a small boy my teachers told me I was gifted
Then they took it back, it was never the same
When I walked the world
I could see the gifts in life that were sacred
All divine beauty in the simply mundane
CHORUS
When I was a young man my father called me to the tractor
I spent some long hours in that field all alone
Since then I've found my own way in my heart beat
And let it guide me home
CHORUS
Who will pay the cost when everything is lost?
That is the price you'll pay if you don't find your own way

Thank You
02:44

For the times you really cared
For the journeys that we shared
For the times that you were there
And the laughter in the air
CHORUS:
I want to thank you, I want to thank you
I want to thank you, for being my friend
(repeated)
For the times we got in trouble
And the times we drank a double
For the times you made me humble
And you caught me when I stumbled
CHORUS
For the struggles we went through
For the ways in which we grew
For the love that was true
And just for being you
CHORUS

Too Late For Tacos
05:15
|
|||
|
Well, it's much too late to start again
And it's much too late for fightin’
We've had the time of our lives, but now it's gone
When the fiesta is over I know that it's time to move on
Because it's too late for tacos
It's too late for tacos
And I try and I try and I try and I try and I try
Dunno why dunno why dunno why dunno why dunno why
Because it's too late for tacos
It's too late for tacos
Well, I've been thinking about the place that we're in
Kind of sad to think that it finally has to end
We've had the time of our lives but now it's gone
When the fiesta is over I know that it's time to move on
Because it's too late for tacos
(I know) it's too late for tacos
(I know) it's too late, for tacos
(But now) it's too late for tacos
And I say hey, hey, hey. . .
When the fiesta is over (x3)
I know that it's over
Because it's too late for tacos
(I know) it's too late for tacos
(I know) it's too late for tacos
(But now) it's too late for tacos
