Up
from the ashes, out of the flames · Kepps gettin' stronger, like
a slow rollin' train · Watch it run · Oh, why do the good
die young · Burnin' like a shootin' star · Born with a broken
heart · Off in the distance, it was callin' my name · So
I took me a ride, on that slow rollin' train · It still runs ·
But it seems that the good die young · Playin' on that sad guitar
· Born with a broken heart · Burnin' like a shootin' star
· Born with a broken heart · Seems it was over, before
it begun · Killed by a bullet, from a six-string gun · Bang
a drum · Oh, why do the good die young · Ridin' in a long
black car · Born with a broken heart · Playin' on that sad
guitar · Born with a broken heart · Burnin' like a shootin'
star · Born with a broken heart |

Needles
in my heart, spell on my mind · Your powerful potion gets me everytime
· I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night · Your kiss burns
through my dreams · Chorus: · Here it comes again ·
I don't stand a chance · Soul possession · Got me in
a trance · Pullin' me back to you - · Deja voodoo ·
Fire in the dark, pounding in my brain · Driven by the chant calling
out my name · I toss and turn, I can't sleep · Your kiss
burns, through my dreams |

I
was over in Aberdeen · On my way to New Orleans · I was over
in Aberdeen · On my way to New Orleans · Well the Aberdeen
women told me · They would give me my gasoline · Aberdeen
is my home · But they just don't want me around · Aberdeen
is my home · But they just don't want me around · I'm gonna
take these women · Take them out this town · Well just look
over yonder · Coming down the road · Well just look over
yonder · Coming down the road · That must be my baby coming
· Tell me she don't want me know more · Well there's too
many women · I ain't never seen · Well there's too many women
· I ain't never seen · I bring too many women · Back
from New Orleans · I was standin' 'roun cryin' · With
my heart right in my hand · I was standin' 'round cryin' ·
With my heart right in my hand · I was lookin' for that woman ·
One ain't got no man · Well just look over yonder · Where
we used to live · Well just look over yonder · Where we used
to live · Don't you know it's killing me, baby · How we can't
live here no more · Well it's goodbye, baby · If I'm never
gonna see you no more · Well it's goodbye, baby · If I'm
never gonna see you no more · I'm gonna tell everybody you've been
· Still knockin at my door |

Chorus:
· Shame, shame, shame · Shame on me for loving you ·
Shame, shame, shame · Shame on me for loving you · You came

I tried · Was your love to me just on love · Repeat Chorus |

You say, "Come over baby.
· Come talk to me" · Then you drive me so crazy ·
I can't hardly see · If this keeps goin' on · I might just
leave and not come back · I got on foot in your doorway ·
I got one foot on the path · Well you beg me to stay · Then
you order me to go · All this up and down · Is wear and tear
on my soul · I'm wonderin' if our future · Is gonna look
just like our past · I got one foot in your doorway · I got
one foot on the path · Now I love you, baby · Don't get me
wrong · But this heart of mine · May not be that strong ·
You got me on you line · Reel me in or throw me back · I
got one foot in your doorway · I got one foot on the path ·
You'd best think about it, baby · But don't take too long ·
If we can't get it right · I'll just be movin' on · I can't
wait forever · For us to get this thing on track · I got
one foot in your doorway, baby · I got one foot on the path |

rich · It don't make no differenve if you're poor · Simple

I'm leaving you, woman ·
Before I commit a crime · I'm leaving you, woman · Before
I commit a crime · You tried so hard to kill me · But baby,
it was not my time · You put poison in my coffee · Instead
of milk or cream · You put poison in my coffee · Instead
of milk or cream · You're the evilest woman · I think I've
ever seen · You mix my drink · With a can of Red Devil lye
· You mix my drink · With a can of Red Devil lye ·
Then you sit right down · Watch me, hoping I might die |

When I fell for you, baby
· I really met my match · You use me, abuse me · But
I keep comin' back · Let me up, baby, I've had enough · It
never seems to matter · What we fight about · I'm the one
who winds up · Down for the count · Let me up, baby, I've
had enough · Chorus: · I love ya, I want ya · Just
like I did before · I need ya, but if I leave ya · It's cause
I just can't take no more · Somehow you rememver · Every
little thing that I've done · So baby, I surrender · I've
lost and you have won · Let me up, baby, I've had enough ·

Seen her get up, seen her
go down · Down to the riverside · Seen her jump into the
river and drown · Down to the riverside · People do just
what they will · Don't matter to the river, it's running still ·
Sun come up, sun go down · Down to the riverside · Sun jump
into the river and drown · Down to the riverside · Everyday
just like the last · We sit and watch the water pass · Came
a day they built a bridge · Down to the riverside · Over
the way, on top of the ridge · Down to the riverside · Built
a bridge for the people to cross · But every other day, someone's
jumping off · You might think some boys they got it made ·
Down to the riverside · They got the money and the women and a ·
place in the shade · Down to the riverside · That ain't no
way to ease the pain · Can't listen to the river when it calls your
name |

Time's a wastin' now ·
And I ain't got no more time to play · Everything is changin' now
· Pretty soon it's all gone away · Can we make the changes
now · You know there's no other way · Now's the time, the
time is now · It's not the why, it's just the how · Chorus:
· Have you looked around my friend · And really seen what's
goin' down · Take a look into the sky · And lay your hand
upon the ground · It is of you good neighbor · I ask a life-long
favour · It is my faith I put in you · Repeat Second Verse
· Repeat Chorus |
