Wanted You Too Much 04:45
lyrics
buy track
I said I couldn’t help the way I feel But everybody knows that it can’t be real When you just meet a woman— How can you fall in love… I tried to follow you around everywhere you go Try to catch your smile and never let you know I’m burnin’ for you I gotta have your touch But now I’m gonna have to see These things ain’t ever gonna be I didn’t know it would be so tough I just wanted you too much No woman ever looked this way to me I can’t seem to tell real life from dreams I’m starting to break—I think I just might fall I’ve tried to give it up but my feet won’t move If I don’t get some relief I don’t know what I will do I want to talk to you, but I just can’t call But now I’m gonna have to see These things ain’t ever gonna be I didn’t know it could be so tough I guess I wanted you too much I know I’m only hurting myself I’m out here building my own hell But if I can’t get my head to clear soon I’m afraid that I’ll start hurtin’ you Last night I guess it got the best of me Outside your house at a quarter to three I saw you with him, it really tore me up I bit my jaw and tried to hold my rage But the bad in me had done left its cage Oh the pain we cause, in the name of love But now I’m gonna have to see Some things ain’t ever sposed to be I didn’t know I could be so rough I just wanted you too much

Poor Little Rich Girl 03:44
lyrics

Poor little rich girl, what makes you cry. If it’s a man you want, something daddy can’t buy. All your money won’t buy you love. Poor little rich girl. It just ain’t enough. Repeat Hush little baby don’t say a thing, daddy gonna buy you a diamond ring. Don’t you worry cuz late at night, that diamond ring can hold you tight. Poor little rich girl. Repeat Hush little baby, don’t say a word. I think somebody might have overheard. Have you been seen with a common man? Your daddy won’t ever let you have your hand. Daddy says it’s for the better. But that’s a lie. That boy can give you something money can’t buy. Poor little rich girl. Hush, hush Hush, hush Repeat Hush my little baby. A love affair kept in the dark, Rich girl breaks poor man’s heart. He’s barely good enough to work on the farm Guess you got your money to keep you warm. Poor little rich girl.

You Make Me 02:46
lyrics
buy track
You make me want your body You make you want your soul You make me want to follow Wherever you might go And I don’t care about fortune And I don’t care about the truth And I don’t care what the people gonna say You make me do what I do Some people long for power Some people want for gold Some people count their hours Their lives are bought and sold And I don’t care about the wealthy What they say may be true In some eyes I may have nothing at all You make me do what I do. You make me give my body You make me give my soul You make me have to follow Wherever you might go And I don’t care about the future All our days are still too few I don’t care what tomorrow may bring You make me do what I do.

Work 03:26

Things ain’t as good as they ought to be I thought I loved you and you loved me. What’s up…what’s going on Then you think I’m coming back for more I put in my notice and I’m out the door I ain’t gonna work for you no more You got a glass in your hand all the time I had to pay for every bottle of wine This ain’t the way things supposed to be Loving you, woman, made a slave outta me What’s up…what’s going on (what’s going on) Just when you think I’m coming back for more Put in my notice, I’m out the door I ain’t gonna work for you no more You treat me like a paid for slave Try to send me to and early grave So I pack up my bags and I’m hitting the road Ain’t none of your business where I’m gonna go And don’t try to tell me what I’m gonna miss Anywhere on the map will be better than this I know you’re thinking I’ll be back for more See my tail going out the door I ain’t gonna work for you no more (I’m gone…work no more, work no more)

Dreams 04:28

Yesterday’s gone And tomorrow is not promised With everything wrong How will you get along…without your baby… I don’t understand How everything happens You do all that you can With a stroke of God’s hand…you’ve lost your baby… What ya gonna do when the lights go down Seems like your whole damn life you’re losing ground… Who’s gonna be there when you call Who’s gonna catch you when you fall I call out to you But you will not answer Your dreams are so strong You’ve chased them so long…You’ve lost your baby… What ya gonna do when the lights go down Seems like your _____ life you’re losing ground… Who’s gonna be there when you call Who’s gonna catch you when you fall Yesterday’s gone And tomorrow is not promised With everything wrong How will you get along without your baby You’re out on the sea Adrift in your anger You try and you try And you cry and you cry…without your baby

Dangerous 04:02
lyrics
buy track
I guess your life ain’t all it should be I know it can only be my fault If I ever stole the smallest bit of happiness I surely would be caught And this feeling ain’t healthy I know this feeling just ain’t right I’m feeling a little dangerous tonight I’m growing a little bitter A little spiteful in my old age But I’d trade everything I own For one night outside this cage And this feeling ain’t healthy I know this feeling just ain’t right I’m feeling a little dangerous tonight I’m feeling a little dangerous tonight Every time I see a sad movie Bad thoughts won’t let me be In my heart I know every tear-jerking song Surely was written about me And this feeling ain’t healthy I know this feeling just ain’t right I’m feeling a little dangerous tonight I’m feeling a little dangerous tonight

Don’t know where you’re going What you’re gonna do The men and the party Made a mess of you Child in the back room Cries in the night Ain’t nobody helping Everything’s a fight Sweet, sweet Cindy All night long Sweet, sweet Cindy Wrong, wrong, wrong Love’s lost angel Can’t find home Sweet, sweet Cindy Gone, gone, gone Looking for the answers Burning in your heart Bright light shining But everything is dark The Lord’s gonna give it And take it all away Run from the pain, girl To live another day Sweet, sweet Cindy All night long Sweet, sweet Cindy Wrong, wrong, wrong Love’s lost angel Can’t find home Sweet, sweet Cindy Gone, gone, gone It’s only what they owe you Take it while you can But with your heart turned into stone Can you love another man? Well you made it what you want it You got it while you could But your heart is in a bottle Your soul misunderstood But no one’s gonna take your Mind away again Keep your feet planted Where they always shoulda been Sweet, sweet Cindy All night long Sweet, sweet Cindy Wrong, wrong, wrong Love’s lost angel Can’t find home Sweet, sweet Cindy Gone, gone, gone

Listen up, I got something to say This ain’t how I roll, this ain’t how I play You said we be together You said we got a plan I get home from work And you at the house with another man Get it up, Get it out And get it gone…so long You was looking so damn good I had to let you in Now all that bad stuff Is coming ‘round again It’s making me sick To have to see your face But I’m promising you Somebody else is gonna take your place Get it up, Get it out And get it gone…so long I couldn’t wait to get at you Had to make you mine Now you hangin round this damn house Just doggin’ me all the time Time for something different Time for moving on Well get you stuff together girl It’s time for you to done be gone Get it up, Get it out And get it gone…so long

Everybody knows where all my money goes. I‘ve needed you for so long. Where did I go wrong for you to hurt me so? Everybody knows. All my friends can see that you’re still hurting me. What am I gonna do, are the things that they are saying true? Are you gonna go? Everybody knows. Everybody knows…Everybody knows… Everybody knows you’re what I need the most. I can’t let you go. Well, everybody knows… Everybody sees what loneliness is doing to me. I feel like no one cares. I’m lost alone and scared. I think I’m letting go. Everybody knows… Everybody knows… Everybody knows… Everybody knows you’re what I need the most. I can’t let you go. Everybody knows… Always remember, baby, no matter where you go. I can hear the words you told me, girl. You’re gonna be alright I know. Everybody knows. Everybody knows you’re what I need the most. I can’t let you go. Everybody knows. Everybody knows. Everybody knows. All my friends can see, baby. Everybody knows. I said, I said whatcha doing to me girl. Everybody knows. Sometimes I feel so lonely inside Everybody knows You’re what I need the most. I can’t let you go. Everybody knows.
