There's a world where
I can go and
Tell my secrets to
In my room.
In my room.

In this world I
Lock out all my
Worries and my fears
In my room.
In my room.

Do my dreaming and my scheming.
Lie awake and pray.
Do my crying and my sighing.
Laugh at yesterday.

Now, it's dark and
I'm alone, but
I won't be afraid
In my room.
In my room.


. . .


What good is the dawn
That grows into day
The sunset at night
Or living this way

For I have the warmth of the sun
(Warmth of the sun)
Within me at night
(Within me at night)

The love of my life
She left me one day
I cried when she said
"I don't feel the same way"

Still I have the warmth of the sun
(Warmth of the sun)
Within me tonight
(Within me tonight)

I'll dreams of her arms
And though they're not real
Just like she's still there
The way that I feel

My love's like the warmth of the sun
(Warmth of the sun)
It won't ever die
(It won't ever die)

. . .


Well, it's been building up inside of me
For oh, I don't know how long.
I don't know why, but I keep thinkin'
Something's bound to go wrong,

But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
When she says,
"Don't worry baby.
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry baby."

I guess I should have kept my mouth shut
When I start to brag about my car,
But I can't back down now
Because I pushed the other guys too far.

She makes me come alive
And makes me want to drive
When she says,
"Don't worry baby.
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry baby."

She told me, "Baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you
And if you knew how much I loved you, baby,
Nothing could go wrong with you.

Oh, what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says,
"Don't worry baby.
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry baby.
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry baby."

Sittin' in my car outside your house
(Sittin' in my car outside your house)
'Member when you spilled coke all over you blouse

T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs
(T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs)
We've been having fun all summer long

(All summer long you've been with me)
I can't see enough of you
(All summer long we've both been free)
Won't be long til summer time is through
(Summer time is through)
Not for us now

Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills
(Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills)
When we rode the horse we got some thrills
Every now and then we hear our song
(Every now and then we hear our song)
We've been having fun all summer long

Won't be long til summer time is through
(Summer time is through)
Not for us now
Every now and then we hear our song
(Every now and then we hear our song)
We've been having fun all summer long
We've been having fun all summer long
(We've been having fun all summer long)
We've been having fun all summer long
(We've been having fun all summer long)
We've been having fun all summer long

Wendy ... Wendy what went wrong ... oh, so wrong,
We went together for so long,
I never thought a guy could cry,
'Til you made it with another guy,
Oh, Wendy ..... Wendy left me alone.

Wendy ... Wendy don't lose your head ... lose your head,
Wendy ... don't believe a word he says,
I can't picture you with him,
His future looks awful dim,
Oh, Wendy ..... Wendy left me alone.

(SOLO)

Wendy ... I wouldn't hurt you like that ... no, no, no,
I thought we had our love down pat ... guess I was wrong,
The farthest thing from my mind,
Was the day that I'd wake up to find,
My Wendy ..... Wendy left me alone.

. . .


I'm gonna wake you up early cause I'm gonna take a ride with you
We're going down to the Honda shop, I'll tell you what we're gonna do
Put on a ragged sweatshirt it’ll take you anywhere you want me to

First gear, it's all right
Second gear, it’ll be right
Third gear, hang on tight
Faster, it's all right

It's not a big motorcycle, just a groovy little motorbike
It's more fun than a barrel of monkeys, that two-wheel ride
We’ll ride on out of the town to anyplace I know you like

It climbs a hill like a match of skills my Honda's built really light
When I go into the turn, lean with me, and hang on tight
I better turn on the lights, so we can ride my Honda the night

. . .


When I grow up to be a man

Will I dig the same things
That turned me on as a kid?
Will I look back and say that
I wish I hadn't done what I did?

Will I joke around
And still take both sides?
When I grow up to be a man?

Will I look for the same things
In a woman that I dig in a girl?
Will I settle down fast
Or will I first wanna travel the world?

Now I'm young and free
But how will it be?
When I grow up to be a man

Ooooo Ooooo Ooooo

Will my kids be proud
Or think their old man's really a square?
When they're out having fun, yeah
Will I still wanna have my share

Will I love my wife
For the rest of my life
When I grow up to be a man?

What will I be when I grow up to be a man?
Won't last forever
It's kinda sad
Won't last forever
It's kinda sad
Won't last forever

. . .


Now here we are together
This would've been worth waiting forever
I always knew it'd feel this way

And please forgive my shaking
Can't you tell my heart is breaking?
Can't make myself say what I planned to say

Baby
Please let me wonder
(If I've been the one you love)
Please let me wonder
(If I'm who you're dreaming of)
Please let me wonder, love

I built all my goals around you
That some day my love would surround you
You'll never know what we've been through

For so long I thought about it
And now I just can't live without it
This beautiful image I have of you

Baby
Please let me wonder
(If I've been the one you love)
Please let me wonder
(If I'm who you're dreaming of)
Please let me wonder, love

Please let me wonder
(If I've been the one you love)
Please let me wonder
(If I'm who you're dreaming of)
Please let me wonder, love

I love you


. . .


You're kinda small
And your such a doll
I'm glad you're mine
You're so good to me
How come you are

You take my hand
And you understand
When I get in a bad mood
You're so good to me
And I love it, love it

You're my baby, oh yeah
Don't mean maybe, oh yeah

I know your eyes
Are not on 'ther guys
When we're apart
You're so true to me
How come you are

And every night
You hold me so tight
When I kiss you goodbye
You're so good to me
And I love it, love it

You're my baby, oh yeah
Don't mean maybe, oh yeah

You're my baby, oh yeah
Don't mean maybe, oh yeah

You're my baby, oh yeah
Don't mean maybe, oh yeah

We met when she was younger
Then I had no eyes for her
A few years went by and I saw her
Now I'm gonna try for her

Look out babe

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

How could I ever have known that
She'd be what she is today
And look at how her boyfriend holds her
I'll be moving in one day

Split man

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

La doo day pow pow pow
La doo day pow pow pow
La doo day pow pow pow

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

. . .


Where did your long hair go
Where is the girl I used to know
How could you lose that happy glow
Oh, Caroline no

Who took that look away
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true
Oh, Caroline you

Break my heart
I want to go and cry
It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die
Oh, Caroline why

Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring 'em back once they have gone
Oh, Caroline no

. . .


I've been in this town so long that back in the city
I've been taken for lost and gone
And unknown for a long long time

Fell in love years ago
With an innocent girl
From the Spanish and Indian home
Home of the heroes and villains

Once at night Catillian squared the fight
And she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down
But she's still dancing in the night
Unafraid of what a dude'll do in a town full of heroes and villains

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Stand or fall I know there
Shall be peace in the valley
And it's all an affair
Of my life with the heroes and villains

My children were raised
You know they suddenly rise
They started slow long ago
Head to toe healthy weathy and wise

I've been in this town so long
So long to the city
I'm fit with the stuff
To ride in the rough
And sunny down snuff I'm alright
By the heroes and

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

. . .


Sweet sweet wild honey bee
Eat up eat up eat up honey

Mama I'm tellin' you as sure as I'm standing here
She's my girl and that's the way I'm keeping it now mama dear
No good will it do you to stand there and frown at me
The girl's got my heart and my love's coming down on me
My love's coming down since I got a taste of wild honey
You know she's got the sweetness of a honey bee
Wild honey
She got it on and stung me good yes sirree

With all the other stud bees buzzing all around her hive
She singled me out single handed took me alive
Well can you can you gonna take my life eating up her wild honey

(Sweet sweet wild honey bee)
(Eat up eat up eat up honey)

Oh mama she's sweeter
Gettin' sweeter
Sweeter sweeter
Sweet

Wild honey
Let me tell you how she really got to my soul
It ain't funny
The way she make wanna sing a little rock 'n' roll
There's nothing quite nice as a kiss of wild honey
I break my back workin' just to save me some money
So I can spend my life with her
Sock it to me wild honey
Wild honey she's mine
Wild honey she's mine

. . .


Ohh darlin'

Don't know if words can say

To let you know what you meant to me
Guess it was meant to be
I hold you in my heart
As life's most precious part

Oh darlin'

(Darlin' you're so fine)

More soul than I ever had
Gonna love you every single night

Your precious love uh huh oh

. . .


We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Turned each other on to the good things that life has to give

We drift apart for a little bit of a spell
One night I get a call and I know that you're well
And days I was down you would help me get out of my hole

Ohhhhhhhh

Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Let's be friends

You told me when my girl was untrue
I loaned you money when the funds weren't too cool
I talked your folks out of making you cut off your hair

We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Dim dipple ee dim dipple ay dim dipple oo dim dee aye oh

. . .


It's automatic when I talk with old friends
Conversations turn to girls we knew
When their hair was soft and long
And the beach was the place to go.

Suntanned bodies and waves of sunshine
The California girls and a beautiful coastline
With warmed up weather let's get together
And do it again.

With a girl the lonely sea looks good in moonlight
Makes your night times warm and out of sight...
It's all right...jonas pappa luktar

Well I've been thinking 'bout all the places
We've surfed and danced and
All the faces we've missed, so let's get
Back together and do it again.

. . .


Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

A boy and a girl they once found love
To each it seemed like heaven above
He looked into her eyes and said
Ooo wee baby you're so good for my head

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

Oh everyone in every land
Please give me a helping hand
If you see her all alone
Oh tell my baby "won't you please come home?"

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

Oh bring my baby back
I don't know why she's been so long
But all I know is that she's gone
Oh bring my baby back to me
Well I'm in pain can't you see

A boy and a girl they once found love
To each it seemed like heaven above
I guess that's why we fell in love
And now she's gone and all I have to say is

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea yeah
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

Bring my baby
Oooo Baby
Oooo oooo oooo oooo

. . .


Oo... Ah...

This is the way
I always dreamed it would be
The way that it is, oh
When you are holding me
I never had a love of my own
Maybe that's why when we're all a lone

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby
Seems to disappear, oh when
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near

Loving you
It keeps me satisfied
And I can't explain, oh no
The way I'm feeling inside
You look at me we kiss and the
I close my eyes and here it comes again

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby
Seems to disappear, oh when
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near

I hear the music all the time, yeah
I hear the music hold me tight now baby
I hear the music all the time
I hear the music
I hear the music (baby)

Ahh...

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby
Seems to disappear, oh when
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near

. . .


(Break, break, shake away)
(Break, break away)
(I did what, did what I wanna do)

Time will not wait for me
Time is my destiny
Why change the part of me
that has to be free

The love that passed me by
I found no reason why
but now each day is filled with the love
that very same love
that passed me by
and that is why

I can break away
from that lonely life
And I can do what I wanna do (I did what, did what I wanna do)
And break away from that empty life
And my world is new

When I laid down on my bed
I heard voices in my head
Tellin' me now hey, it's only a dream

The more I thought of it
I had been out of it
And here's the answer I found instead (baby, baby)
Found out it was in my head (baby, baby)
Found out it was my head (baby, baby)
Found out it was in my head (baby, baby, baby)

And I can break away to the better life
Where the shackles never hold me down
I'm gonna make a way for each happy day
as my life turns around

Oh boy, you'd jump for joy (Come on with me to break away)
when you (Won't you come on with me to break away)
Break away (Come on with me to break away)
Break away (Come on with me to ride away)
Break away (Won't you come on with me to break away)
Break away (Come on with me to ride away)
Feel the vibration
It's an arming sensation (Break away)
Feel the vibration
It's an arming sensation (Break away)

. . .


When I was a little bitty baby
My mama done rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
It was back in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home

Let me tell you now well got me in a fix
I caught a nail in my tire doing lickitey splits
I had to walk a long long way to town
Came upon a nice old man well he had a hat on
Wait a minute mister can you give me some directions
I gonna want to be right off for home

Don't care if them cotton balls get rotten
When I got you baby, who needs cotton
In them old cotton fields back home
Brother only one thing more that's gonna warm you
A summer's day out in California
It's gonna be those cotton fields back home

It was back in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
Give me them cotton fields
(It was back in Louisiana)
Let me hear it for the cotton fields
(Just about a mile from Texarkana)
You know that there's just no place like home

Well boy it sure feels good to breathe the air back home
You shoulda seen their faces when they seen how I grown
In them old cotton fields back home
