Right Side Of Wrong

Sleeping very soundly on a sunny afternoon
All I wanna do is hang around with you
Call the neighbors up let's meet them out there in the street
Put the rhythm in your body and the shuffle in your feet
I got some songs, I got some beers
Call up everyone and tell them meet us here
Park on the street, sleep on the lawn
I don't give a damn if it lasts till dawn
Turn it on
Turn it up
We'll all sing along
Everybody's coming around to the right side of wrong
Every summer needs a soundtrack so let's write this one together
Nights are getting warmer it's only getting better
Your day job's a drag, you think it's a curse
You sit around and wonder if it gets any worse
Oh my my, oh hell yes
Come on out and try it you know it's the best
You got the rhythm, you got the beat
Mama's little baby likes it short and sweet
Turn it on
Turn it up
We'll all sing along
Everybody's coming around to the right side of wrong

My Father's Stereo
02:49
|

I remember that sound
33 times around
It was speaking straight to me
Every crackle, every pop
Every time the needle dropped
Exactly what I need
Just an American boy
I was raised on rock n' roll
Blasting through the speakers of my father's stereo
Flipping through stacks
Of delectable wax
On a Saint Paul summer
Places come and go
I guess you never know
It really is a bummer
The places may change
But the songs remain the same
The crash of guitars is still rattling in my brain
Just an American boy
With a million places to go
Still living on the rhythm of my father's stereo
Some times I want to go back
To the days so long ago
Getting down on the sound of my father's stereo

One And Only
02:53

Hey there Marie will you settle for me
If I offer you roses and candy?
Lips speak your name through the sweetest refrain
Of the songs that make you smile
Where are the heroes, the saviours, the saints
we swore we could be?
Time slips away every hour every day
We wonder if we ever will be
come on, come on
Let's have some fun
Gotta live it up because it's almost gone
Come on, come on
Be my one and only
A parking lot poet in my black t-shirts
I knew every line
The words that you said, tangled up in my head
disappear over time
We should be lying awake in your bed
Counting dreams as they pass by
Gathering all of our strength for the moment
We finally make it out alive
Come on, come on
Let's have some fun
Gotta live it up because it's almost gone
Come on, come on
Be my one and only
Don't talk about the future
I know it never works out right
Don't talk about the past now baby
This is our life, this is our time
Hey there Marie will you ask me to leave
When the words and the place have no meaning?
The creak of the floor and the slam of the door
As I hear you say goodbye
I want to remember the way that we were
Before we disappear
Come on and dance while we still got a chance
I'm begging you my dear
Come on, come on
let's have some fun
Gotta live it up because it's almost gone
Come on, come on
Be my one and only
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Be my one and only

Set You Free
03:21
|
|||
|
Brothers and sisters gathered here today
I got something on my mind I wanted to say
I'm here tonight with a new solution
I ain't talking bout no revolution
We gotta rise up out of this hole
Give you my heart
Sell you my soul
We want the radio, we want the airwaves
We want the promises all of the songs made
Coming in loud at the top of the dial
Coming on strong every mile after mile
Come on and rise up out of this hole
Give you my heart
Sell you my soul
For one chance, we gotta take it
On a live wire not gonna fake it
It's a good ride, we gotta make it
Hold on baby, I'm about to set you free
We are the light that cannot be extinguished
Time to repair, to rebuild, to redeem
We are the voice rising up in the distance
Start with a whisper, turn to a scream
Come on and rise up out of this hole
Give you my heart
Sell you my soul
For one chance, we gotta take it
On a live wire not gonna fake it
It's a good ride, we gotta make it
Hold on baby, I'm about to set you free

Where have all my blue skies gone?
I traded them for grey
She strolled by, caught my eye
and left me for a sunny day
It was a cheap trick when I said
I was gonna be a big star
She found my replacement
We didn't make it very far
Sitting in this lonely bar
Not sure what I'm gonna do yet
You slide up beside me
Snatch my cigarette
Talking about the good old days
Let's drink to there and then
I ain't the boy you thought I'd be
Let's not go back again
All I really want to say
Is have yourself a lovely day
Thank you for you time
It's good to talk to an old friend
You go your way, I'll go mine
Let's meet somewhere again
Another time, another place
Another stupid smiling face
Reminding me of yesterdays
That never seem to fade
All I really want to say
Is have yourself a lovely day
These days go by so fast
Try to make it last
Stop hanging on to moments as they pass
These days go by so fast

One Little Mistake
01:52
|
|||
|
Met a little girl and we stopped to talk
Took her for a drink and the I took her for a walk
She's the type of girl who likes to run and play
I'm the type of guy who likes to drink all day
She won't be knocking at my door
She's not my baby anymore
(nope)
Tried to make a move, tried to make her mine
Tried to make her love me til the end of time
She could see right through me like the other ones before
Tore my heart apart and left it on the floor
She won't be knocking at my door
She's not my baby anymore
I just want to know
Gotta find out if there's a chance to take
She's just gotta make one little mistake
I just want to know
Gotta find out if there's a chance to take
She's just gotta make one little mistake
The moral of the story? Well it's plain to see
You're never gonna see her with the likes of me
Have another drink and try to dry my eyes
Find myself another one to change my mind
She won't be knocking at my door
She's not my baby anymore
I just want to know
Gotta find out if there's a chance to take
She's just gotta make one little mistake
I just want to know
Gotta find out if there's a chance to take
She's just gotta make one little mistake

Tonight We Ride
02:08
|

|
Fairview girls got all that style
Stealing my soul by the quarter mile
Tonight we ride down this asphalt fast
Hoping I can make this nightmare last
Devil's all know what to do
Riding on the darkness coming through
Fire in my veins on top of the ridge
Isaac, co-pilot underneath the bridge
Sonny's secret, Bruce's cost
Money's down and the dice are tossed
Devil's all know what to do
Riding on the darkness coming through
Devil's all know what to do
Riding on the darkness coming through
My darling girl it's too late for you
Riding on the darkness coming through

Revelation Song
02:49
|
|||
|
It's easy to say goodbye when you never said good morning
You're free to slam the door when you leave without a warning
I never thanked you properly for all the laughs we shared
I said I want you, you said always
In the darkness, unaware
This is my revelation song
An answer to the question
"What could possibly go wrong?"
This is my revelation song
An answer to the question
"What could go wrong?"
Isn't it great? I told you you could have it all
I'll fix you a plate for you to throw against the wall
Here we sit, a cup of tea, a glass of water
Just like Jimmy said
Maybe next time we'll be smarter
This is my revelation song
An answer to the question
"What could possibly go wrong?"
This is my revelation song
An answer to the question
I figured it out
The last horse across the line
I figured it out
Just a tone on the telephone line
This is my revelation song
An answer to the question
"What could possibly go wrong?"
This is my revelation song
An answer to the question
"What could go wrong?"

Changing Of The Guards
03:16
|

Seems like we're doing better these days now the chips are cashed in
Struggle though the stretch, put your limits to the test
Always playing to win
Try as I might I could never get it right
Never make my amends
Call it bad luck, take the blame or pack it up
It all comes back again
I know it's hard to keep it together
Some things are better left unsaid
Don't be alarmed at the changing of the guards my friend
Sometimes it's best to call your own bluff as the years go by
The clubs across the river they ain't never gotten bigger
Not for you or I
Try as I may I could never get away, never leave it undone
Can't leave it all behind to turn around and find
That we had only just begun
I know it's hard to keep it together
Some things are better left unsaid
Don't be alarmed at the changing of the guards my friend
The bridges that we burn, all the lessons that we learn
Take their toll in the end
Swim against the tide, step into the light
And find you're on your feet again
I know it's hard to keep it together
Some things are better left unsaid
Don't be alarmed at the changing of the guards my friend

Shine
03:55

Your grandma loved the Chi-lites, she danced on soul train
Held you tight neath the kitchen light, said, "you're gonna be a star one day"
You learned to sing in Saint Norma's choir
With a heart full of hope and prayers
Late nights with the boys in the band in the basement down the stairs where you would
Shine a light over everybody
Shine a light for all the world to see
It gets tough paying your dues
You get tired of singing the blues
You shine a light for all the world to see
Shine your light for me
It gets hard working doubles each day just to try to make ends meet
It feels alright on Saturday night with the crowd swept off their feet
The booze, and the lights, and the dope, and the fights make it hard for you to want to stay
So much for dreams of fortune and fame, keep playing the game til you find a way to
Shine a light over everybody
Shine a light for all the world to see
It gets tough paying your dues
You get tired of singing the blues
You shine a light for all the world to see
Shine your light for me
It takes a lifetime to forget and to erase
Nothing good has ever come from the chances you don't take
Shine a light over everybody
Shine a light for all the world to see
It gets tough paying your dues
You get tired of singing the blues
You shine a light for all the world to see
Shine your light for me

Enemies!
01:22

All my enemies are coming over tonight
All my enemies are coming over tonight
I think my days are numbered
Counting down again
All my enemies are turning into my friends
All my enemies are hanging around my backdoor
All my enemies are hanging around my backdoor
I wish I could do something
To make them go away
All my enemies are coming over to stay
I think somebody better call an ambulance
ALL MY ENEMIES!!!

Some New Town
02:57

I see the symptoms of my condition
Step out the way I'm a man on a mission
Ice in my veins, a head full of nothing
Step on up, I'll show you something
Boots on the boards, a tank full of gas
Living for the moment that ain't gonna last
Close up the ranks and cover the miles
Feels so good to be reckless and wild
Turn it up don't let me down
Get my feet on solid ground
Turn the page, rattle cage
Tear the whole thing down
Move along to some new town
A creation of desperation
Dig in deep to find some inspiration
No doubt about it, stand up and shout it
Come on down if you want to know about it
Bring on the drums, bring on the lights
Bring on the never ending Saturday nights
Bring on the names on the top of the list
My mama never told me there's be days like this
Turn it up don't let me down
Get my feet on solid ground
Turn the page, rattle cage
Tear the whole thing down
Move along to some new town
