Heart’s Done Time

Met a woman, she had a man

Couldn’t help it, I had a plan

Right around midnight he was gone

Saw her red light, she left it on

(Chorus)

And oh, my Heart’s Done Time

And oh, now she’s mine

If there’s a reason for these chains

It’s like we suffer to ease the pain

Now I got this feelin’ inside of me

My heart’s in jail and I can’t break free

(Chorus)

Now she’s mine

Now she’s mine

Now she’s mine

Now she’s mine

(Chorus)

Now she’s mine

Now she’s mine

Now she’s mine

Now she’s mine

2.  Magic Touch

Somebody better call a doctor, doctor

Or wake me up with a shove

I’m gonna knock you off your rocker, rocker

‘Cause I think I’m in love

I tried to get a message to ya

But you walked the other way

I need your Magic Touch, don’t you know

I’ve got a habit and I can’t let go

Feel the fire burnin’ slow

You better get it while it’s hot now babe

‘Cause I can’t let go

Don’t need no wedding with a shotgun, shotgun

So don’t you push me too far

Don’t try to take me for a fool child, who child

Do you think that you are

You really got it coming to ya

It’s gonna come as no surprise

I need your Magic Touch, don’t you know

I’m after you and now I can’t let go

Take it easy, take it slow

You better get it while it’s hot now babe

‘Cause I can’t let go

You never know what you got

Till they take it away

I’m comin’ ready or not

Gonna get you some day

I need your Magic Touch, don’t you know

I’m after you and now I can’t let go

Feel the fire, burnin’ slow

I got a habit and I’m back for more

Your Magic Touch, don’t you know

I’m after you and now I can’t let go

Feel the fire, burnin’ slow

You better get it while it’s hot now babe

‘Cause I can’t, can’t, can’t let you go

3.  Rag Doll

Rag doll, livin in a movie

Hot tramp, daddy’s little cutie

So fine, they’ll never see you

Leavin by the backdoor, man

Hot time, get it while it’s easy

Don’t mind, come one up and see me

Rag doll, baby won’t you do me like

You done before

I’m feelin like a bad boy

MMM just like a bad boy

I’m rippin up a rag doll

Like throwin away an old toy

Some babe’s talkin real loud

Talkin all about the new crowd

Try and sell me on a old dream

A new version of the old scene

Speak easy on the grapevine

Keep shufflin in the shoeshine

Old tin lizzy do it til you’re dizzy

Give it all you got until

You’re put out of your misery

Yes, I’m movin

Yes, I’m movin

Get ready for the big time

Tap dancin on a land mine

Yes, I’m movin

I’m really movin

Old tin lizzy

Yes, I’m movin

Yes, I’m movin

Get ready for the big time

Get crazy on the moonshine

Yes, I’m movin

I’m really movin

Sloe gin fizzy

Do it til you’re dizzy

Give it all you got until

You’re put out of your misery

4.  Simoriah

Walkin’ the line of a razors edge

Take it as far as it goes

Slice of the sky on a silver wedge

Higher and higher we go – let’s go

Ladies in black put a spell on me

Feels like my head’s goin’

Round and round and round and upside down

Ladies in white ain’t my cup of tea

So be it, I need it, long legs, big eyes

Oh, she drives me crazy

(Chorus)

Ooh, Simoriah

Ooh, Simoriah

Countin’ the eyes of the dragonfly

Callin’ on dreams from within

She knows the way and she makes me high

So be it, I need it, long hair, blue eyes

Oh, she drives me crazy

(Repeat Chorus)

5.  Dude (Looks Like a Lady)

Cruised into a bar on the shore

Her picture graced the grime on the door

She a long lost love at first bite

Baby maybe you’re wrong but you know that’s alright

That’s right

Backstage we’re havin the time

Of our lives until somebody say

Forgive me if I seem out of line

Then she whipped out her gun

Tried to blow me away

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

So never judge a book by its cover

Or who you gonna love by your lover

Love put me wise to her love in disguise

She had the body of a venus

Lord, imagine my surprise

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Dude looks like a lady

Baby let me follow you down

Let me take a peek dear

Baby let me follow you down

Do me, do me, do me, all night

Baby let me follow you down

Turn the other cheek dear

Baby let me follow you down

Do me, do me, do me, sue me

What a funky lady

She like it like it like it like that

He was a lady

6.  St. John

(Come on boy, the tape is rollin’)

(One, two, one two, two two two)

John was bad

He gave it everything he had

John he prayed

For all the people ever made

John was cool

He never did no after school

Late at night when he praised the Lord

He laid his hands down upon the bloody sword

John, St John be cool

Tell the people

They follow you

They follow you

But every night when he praised the Lord

he laid his hands down upon the bloody sword

Lay down upon the sword

Lay down upon the sword

Lay down upon the sword

Lay down your bloody sword

John, St John be cool

Tell the people

They follow you

John, St John be cool

Tell the people

They follow you

late at night when he praised the Lord

He lay his hands down upon the bloody sword

Laid down upon the sword

Down, down upon the sword

Laid down upon the sword

gettin’ down upon the sword

Laid down upon the sword

Laid it down upon the sword

Laid down upon the sword

Late night TV roared

7.  Hangman Jury

Me and my old lady sittin’ in the shade

Talkin’ ’bout the money that I ain’t made

Singin’ o boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

If I could I surely would

Stand on the rock that Moses stood

Singin’ O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

Drank so much hooch

It my eyes be gettin’ blurry

They say I nailed her to the door

A stich in time don’t mean a thing

No Hangman Jury could make me crawl

‘Cause I’m a poor boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

Wacha do with a gun that’s loaded

Shot her dead and her heart exploded

Tell me baby now d-dontcha worry

Like lyin’ to a Hangman Jury

I swear I didn’t know that ‘45 was loaded

In fact my memory ain’t too clear

That’s not to say she didn’t get what she deserved

Least that’s the way it looked from here

Boy when you line the track a lack a

Hey boy dontcha line the track a lack a

Hey boy dontcha line the track

Ooh, my love came tumblin’ down

Ooh, love come tumblin’ down

Ooh, Let’s get outta here

Love come tumblin’

And every night she take her things into the city

And in the morning make me beg

If I’d taken all her titty gritty

Smack her right upside the head

Boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

O boy dontcha line the track

Ooh, my love came tumblin’ down

Ooh, love comes tumblin’ down

Ooh, love comes tumblin’ down

Poor boy sweatin’ in the hot summer night

Hangman waitin’ for the early mornin’ light singin’

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

If I could I surely would

Stand on the rock that Moses done stood singin’

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

O boy dontcha line the track a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track

8.  Girl Keeps Coming Apart

She’s right peculiar

She’ll try and fool ya

But the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

She’s so appealing

Right off the ceiling

But the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

What did I tell ya

She’ll buy and sell ya

‘Cause the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

She’s so affected

I’m so rejected

And the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t let it get me down

Don’t let it get me down

She’s just a screamer

A nightmare dreamer

Yeah, the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

She’s like a call girl

Loose ends and all girl

But the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

White lace and leather

She’s so together

But still the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

I feel sedated

Boxed up an crated

‘Cause the Girl Keeps Coming Apart

Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t

Don’t let it get me down

Don’t let it get me down

“So there she was

Buns up and kneelin’

I was a wheelin’ and a dealin’

My ace in the hole so to speak”
——————————————————————-
9.  Angel

I’m alone, yeah, I don’t know if I can face the night

I’m in tears, and the cryin’ that I do is for you

I want your love, let’s break the walls between us

Don’t make it tough, I’ll put away my pride

Enough’s enough, I’ve suffered and I’ve seen the light

Baby,

(Chorus)

You’re my Angel, come and save me tonight

You’re my Angel, come and make it alright

You’re my Angel, come and save me tonight

Don’t know what I’m gonna do about this feelin’ inside

Yes, it’s true, loneliness took me for a ride

Without your love, I’m nothing but a beggar

Without your love, a dog without a bone

What can I do, I’m sleepin’ in this bed alone

Baby,

(Chorus)

You’re the reason I live

You’re the reason I die

You’re the reason I give

When I break down and cry

Don’t need no reason why

Baby, baby, baby

(Chorus)

10.  Permanent Vacation

I got a letter from a friend the other morning

He say it’s hot down by Montego Bay

I got the point and now I think it’s finally dawning

Yeah, yeah, I got to get away

I got to take myself a Permanent Vacation

The sky’s the limit, but my plane won’t fly

My nose is clean and lordie don’t need no sedation

Yeah, yeah, and that’s the reason why

(Chorus)

I really need it, really, really need St Tropez

I want a tan where the sun it never shines

I really need it, really, really need St Tropez

You best believe it that I got to get away

I got a sister, man she really got a pin head

She think she kinky but she can’t get straight

She say she livin’, but I kinda think she’s brain dead

Just excess baggage on a late night freight

(Chorus)

I gotta take me on a Permanent Vacation

The girl’s be cummin’ down in Cayman Brack

I gotta hand it to a firm situation

Yeah, yeah, got to cut me some slack

I really need it, really, really need St Tropez

I want a tan where the sun it never shines

I really need it, really, really need St Tropez

I really need it, really need it, really really….

11.  I’m Down

You tellin’ lies thinkin’ I can’t see

You can’t cry, ’cause you’re laughing at me

(Chorus)

I’m down (I’m really down)

I’m down (down on the ground)

I’m down (I’m really down)

How can you laugh when you know I’m down

(How can you laugh) when you know I’m down

Man buys ring, woman throws it away

Same damn thing happens every day

(Chorus)

We’re all alone and there’s nobody else

You still moan ‘keep your hands to yourself

(Repeat Chorus)
