Lonely girl, rainy night
Lookin' for that number
She needs someone to treat her right
There's plenty of men she could call
But she wants him most of all
Oh God, I hope he's home tonight
She needs a love from a real exciter
She needs the allnighter,
The allnighter

He's the one, the one she calls
When she gets that feeling
Some nights she just can't stop herself
He's tough and tender, a soul bender
Ain't no service he can't render
He touches her like nobody else
He brings out the love, love, love deep inside her
He's the allnighter

Now when all the stimulation let's you down, down, down
And there ain't no medication layin' around, 'round, 'round
Ya feel your little heart begin to pound and pound
He's a satisfier of that one desire

Other guys come and go
They may try, but they don't know
Ev'ry girl needs special care
Oh, he's so bad, he's so good
He makes it feel just the way it should
Nobody else can take her there
He's the real thing, the pure delighter
He's the allnighter
The allnighter

. . .


She moved in next door to me
And she showed me her world
What a neighbor, thanks for the favor
She's a very sexy girl

She's a sexy girl, sexy girl, sexy girl
She's a very sexy girl
She's a sexy girl, sexy girl, sexy girl
She's a very sexy girl

I got a feeling I can't go wrong
'Cause every time I see her
It's like hearing my favorite song
She's already down the steps,
She's way down the block
But my heart keeps beating faster,
And it just won't stop

CHORUS

I love to take her walkin'
And when we started talkin'
I'd tell her she's the finest I've ever seen
She'd look into my eyes,
But then I realize
I'm holding on to a dream

CHORUS

Stop any man walking down the street
Ask him what kind of girl he'd like to meet
There's not one thing in the whole wide world
He'd rather see than a sexy girl

CHORUS

. . .


Woke up this morning with a smile on my face
Set up in bed, and looked around this old place
Opened the window, let the sun shine in
You see, me and my baby, we're back together again.

Jumped on the freeway with this song in my head
I started thinkin' 'bout the things we said
I said I'm sorry; She said I'm sorry too;
You know I can't be happy 'less I'm happy with you.

I got love, it's my lucky day
I got love, gonna keep it that way
It's the sweetest gift from the heavens above
I got you, babe, I got love.

No more staring at my blue telephone
No more pretending I like being alone
No more searching when the workday's done
I get back on the freeway, head on home to number one

I got love, she's waiting for me
I got love, she's sweet as can be
She's the greatest gift from the heavens above
OO, babe, I got love

When you've got love, you got to walk like a man
You've got to bend, you've got to understand
It won't be easy, no, no, that's not in the plan,
But if it ain't all honey, still it's right on the money

I got love, I'm happy to say
I got love, it's stronger each day
It's the sweetest gift from the powers above
I got you, babe, and I know I got love
I got love
I got love

. . .


Girl, I brought you a little present to celebrate tonight
And let you know ev'rything's gonna be allright
In spite of all the love I'm feeling
I know there's something you're concealing
I was hoping you would ease my worried mind

If there's somebody else, you should let me know
If there's somebody else, better let him go
If there's somebody else, you can set him free
Tell that somebody else, you belong to me
You belong to me
(spoken) Listen!

I know ev'ry secret you've been keeping
Who you're going with and where you're sleeping
And I'm telling you, you got to stop it now
Hope you're listening to what I'm saying
This is not a silly game we're playing;
It's the one and only thing I can't allow

If there's somebody else, you should set him free
If there's somebody else, then it's history
If he knew how it was, then he'd let you go
If there's somebody else, you should let him know

How could you think that I would not see?
It shows that you got no respect for me
If there's somebody else, you got one more chance
If there's somebody else, it's a dead romance

I don't really wanna say goodbye
Oh, it would break my heart, if I should see you cry
You know you can't go on denying who I am
And darlin' that is why there can be no other man

If there's somebody else, then let me know
If there's somebody else, you better let him go
If there's somebody else, you can set him free
Tell that somebody else, you belong to me
If there's somebody else
Somebody else
If there's somebody else
Somebody else
Somebody, somebody

. . .


There's a lover's moon tonight
As I look back over my shoulder
All the stars are shining bright
Just like the nights when I used to hold her
She's out there somewhere under the lover's moon

Lover's moon won't you shine on me
I'm dancing with a memory
Wish I may, I wish I might
Have one last chance to hold her tight

CHORUS:

And she's waiting, I know she's waiting
I know she waits for me
Under the lover's moon

There's a lover's moon tonight
Shining down on half of this world
So many souls are in its light
But for me there is just one girl

REPEAT CHORUS

. . .


There's trouble on the street tonight, I can feel it in my bones
I had a premonition that he should not go alone
I knew the gun was loaded, but I didn't think he'd kill
Everything exploded, and the blood began to spill
So baby, here's your ticket, and the suitcase in your hand
Here's a little money, now do it just the way we planned
You be cool for twenty hours, and I'll pay you twenty grand
I'm sorry it went down like this, but someone had to lose
It's the nature of the business, it's the smuggler's blues
Smuggler's blues

The sailors and the pilots, the soldiers and the law
The payoffs and the ripoffs and the things nobody saw
Don't matter if it's heroin, cocaine or hash,
You've got to carry weapons 'cause you always carry cash
There's lots of shady characters and lots of dirty deals
Every name's an alias in case somebody squeals
It's the lure of easy money, it's got a very strong appeal
Perhaps you'd understand it better standing in my shoes
It's the ultimate enticement, it's the smuggler's blues
Smuggler's blues

You see it in the headlines, you hear it every day
They say they're gonna stop it, but it doesn't go away
They move it through Miami and sell it in L.A.
They hide it up in Telluride, I mean it's here to stay
It's propping up the governments in Columbia and Peru
You ask any D.E.A. man, he'll say there's nothing we can do
From the office of the president right down to me and you
Me and you
It's a losing proposition, but one you can't refuse
It's the politics of contraband, it's the smugglers' blues
Smuggler's blues

. . .


I've been all over town
Lookin' all around
Now I fin'lly see you
At a table with friends
Where ev'ry one pretends
I'm not try'n' to free you
I know I let you down
But now I've found
I can't live alone
I just have one thing to say, baby
Let's go home

Hurry finish up your drink
We've had lots of time to think
Let's just steal away
Please just come with me
I need some privacy
For what I've got to say
You know the way I feel
And now I realize
I should have known
There's no living without you
So let's go home

Let's go home
For once in my life, I finally see
You mean ev'rything, in the world to me
I'm willing to take all the bad with the good
I'm ready to do ev'rything that I should

Since we've been apart
I've had a change of heart
Yes, I changed my mind
I'm tryin' to say it right
I need you here tonight
Baby, I ain't lyin'
So please look in my eyes
If you still love me,
You will know
It's just you with me, baby
So let's go home
Oh, let's go home
Let's go home
Oh, let's go home
Why don't you come with me girl

. . .


Well they look to the east
They look to the west
The Third World wonders
Which way's the best
We got freedom, we got soul
We got blue jeans and rock'n roll

Man, there ain't no choice
It's better in the U.S.A.
(It's better in the U.S.A.)
You can be what you want
Say what you wanna say
(It's better in the U.S.A.)
Why can't I make you understand
It's better in the U.S.A.
(It's better in the U.S.A.)

I hear the same propaganda
Day after day
It's gettin' so hip to knock the U.S.A.
If we're so awful and we're so bad
You oughta check the night life
In Leningrad

Man, it ain't even close
It's better in the U.S.A.
(It's better in the U.S.A.)
If you could see behind the curtain
Life is cold and grey
(It's better in the U.S.A.)
How can I make you understand
It's better in the U.S.A.
(It's better, it's better)
I think I'll play

Nobody's perfect and change comes slow
It's really up to you
Which way you wanna go
You can lean to the left
And lean to the right
You can stand in the dark
You can stand in the light

Drivin' on the beach
On a night in June
Me and my baby
In the lover's moon
They're playin' sweet soul music

Got it turned up loud
Make me feel so good
Make me feel so proud

Man, there ain't no choice
It's better in the U.S.A.
(It's better in the U.S.A.)
Well they'd be movin' here from Moscow
If they could only find a way
(It's better in the U.S.A.)
How can I make you understand
It's better in the U.S.A., baby baby
(It's better)

We got the burgers and fries
(In the U.S.A.)
We got the friendly skies
(In the U.S.A.)
We got the beautiful girls
(In the U.S.A.)
Got the beautiful curls
(In the U.S.A.)
We're drivin' beautiful cars
(In the U.S.A.)
We're diggin' movie stars
(In the U.S.A.)
We get to make romance
(In the U.S.A.)
Let the little girl dance
(In the U.S.A.)
It's better, baby
Nice sweater, baby
What do you say you and me go for a little drive.
Come on.

It's better (Repeat and fade)

. . .


I wonder why you want me back
I wonder what it's all about
Why the sudden heart attack
Ever since the lights went out
Now you're coming here with your master plan
That look in your eyes, holding out your hand
But I know you, I don't think you've changed
Ev'rything about you still seems the same

You're living in darkness
You're living in the past
Living in darkness, your dreams fading fast. Hey!

You had a chance to make it right
Long before the stormy night
You didn't make the best of me
You didn't really want to see
Now you tell me the reason and the rhyme
Can't we get together just one more time?
You can say where, you can say when
There's no fooling me, it's the same thing again

You're living in darkness
You're living in the past
Living in darkness, your dreams fading fast.

You didn't want this love of mine
You didn't want the sun to shine
There was a time when we stood side by side
Now there's nowhere to run and there's nowhere to hide
Nowhere to hide

You're living in darkness
Living, living, oo, oo, oo, oo

. . .


New love is calling me
Old love has set me free
Old love is just some tears I cried
New love is walking by my side
And it's so right, and it's so fine
It's new love and it's mine, all mine

I've been walking down the same old street
Going nowhere, shuffling my feet
The lonely nights never seemed to end
There was just no reason to start again

But now, new love is calling me
Old love has set me free
Old love is just some tears I cried
New love is walking by my side
And all I want, yes indeed
It's new love and it's all I need

She said "You need me, and I need you"
And she knows how it feels, 'cause she's been there too
She took my hand and the pain was gone
She gave me hope and a brand new song

New love is calling me
Old love has set me free
Old love is just some tears I cried
New love is walking by my side

New love is calling me
Old love has set me free
Old love is just a memory
New love is calling me
It's calling me
It's calling me
Calling me
