1. _ Old Man
Words and music by billy gibbons, dusty hill, frank beard.
Old man sleepin' the hot day away,
While he dreams a thousand yesterdays.
'cause he's had so many come his way.
All he cares about is somewhere to lay his head tomorrow.
Old man sits and thinks about his home.
Doesn't matter 'cause he's all alone.
What he'd give to get back on his own.
Curses his body 'cause it's old and it gives no transportation.
He sits in his one room shack alone but it provides no consolation.
What a shame,
His time is nearin'.
His eyes won't let him see
The skies are clearin'.
Someone tells him
Without his hearin'.
It's no news to those who've been around
While things are changin'.

2. _ Certified Blues
Words and music by billy gibbons, bill ham, frank beard.
I woke up this mornin' with these certified blues,
They sure been stalkin' me 'round.
So down tonight i couldn't tie my shoes.
They about to drop me in the ground.
If i could shake loose i would feel so fine.
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind.
These certified blues are gonna take their time.
I've been livin' here, way down south,
A place that i wanna stay.
Been workin' hard just to feed my mouth.
Just can keep them blues away.
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind.
These certified blues are gonna take their time.
If i could shake loose i would feel so fine.
You say you're feelin' bad and you don't know why.
You're broke and your woman been ly'n'.
And just one thing before i'm fired,
The blues have just been certified.
If i could shake loose i would feel so fine.
There's one thing for sure and it's on my mind.
These certified blues are gonna take their time.

3. _ Bedroom Thang
Words and music by billy gibbons
I know you wanna be my bedroom thang,
But you're much too young.
You're the finest thing i've ever seen.
You just wanna have fun.
I need someone who can scratch my back.
I need someone who can carry my pack.
I need someone to be with me at night.
You're gonna make me feel alright.
Don't you bother me with petty lines,
I know you ran away from home.
This might come to you as some surprise,
I wish you'd leave me alone.
I need someone to scratch my back.
I need someone to carry my pack.
I need someone to be with me at night.
You're gonna make me feel alright.

4. _ Squank
Words and music by billy gibbons, bill ham, dusty hill.
Woman, grab your children, run and hide.
Don't let it catch up with you.
You gotta fight it to stay alive,
And if it gets you, man, you're through.
It smells so rotten and rank.
Well, everybody calls it the squank.
It's sick, depressin, gettin' bigger all the time.
Don't help it any way you can.
It's grey and brown and sometimes lime
And it's spreadin' all over the land.
And soon we'll be all breathin' out of tanks
If somethin' ain't done about the squank.
The meanest thing the world's ever bred
By me and you and my kinfold too.
A monster can't live unless it's fed,
And it's being fed by me and you.
And soon it's gonna leave the world blank,
And we'll all be erased by the squank.

5. _ Just Got Back From Baby's
Words and music by billy gibbons, bill ham.
(spoken: douse that light...)
Now i just got back from baby's,
We been rollin' all night long.
I said i just got back from baby's,
We been rollin' all night long.
She comeon likes and loves me,
But i feel like somethin' wrong.
Now, sometimes i go see baby,
And sometimes she come see me.
I said, sometimes i go see baby,
And sometimes baby come see me.
I got a funny, funny feelin'
I'm not the only man she sees.
Now, i just got back from baby's,
Big white house on the hill.
I said, i just got back from baby's,
Big white house on the hill.
If her lovin' don't get me,
I know her husband will.

7. _ Back Door Love Affair
Words and music by billy gibbons, bill ham.
Got to have you baby,
Don't you say that you don't care.
Got to have you baby,
Don't you say that you don't care.
Any way you want it baby,
I'll settle for a back door love affair.
I call you on the telephone,
The party says that you ain't there.
I call you on the telephone,
The party says that you ain't there.
When a man asked who's callin',
I said, just tell 'em it's a back door love affair.

8. _ Neighbor, Neighbor
Words and music by billy gibbons.
Neighbor, neighbor, why you messin' in my life?
Neighbor, neighbor, you've been talkin' to my wife,
Tellin' her you seen me
Runnin' wild the other night,
Runnin' wild the other night.
A neighbor, neighbor, theres's always one in every crowd.
A neighbor, neighbor, tellin' lies and talkin' loud.
You better watch your step now.
You might fall off your cloud.
You might fall off your cloud.
Now i was walking down a dusty road
When along came a neighbor of mine.
He saw me walkin' with my head hung down,
He just had to stop and pass the time.
Neighbor, neighbor, floatin' in the salty brine.
Floatin' in the salty brine.

9. _ Goin' Down To Mexico
Words and music by billy gibbons, bill ham, dusty hill.
I was on my way down to mexico,
There was trouble on the rise.
It was nothing more than i'd left behind,
Which was much to my surprise.
I turned around and lit a cigarette
Wiped the dust off of my boots.
When up ahead i saw the crowd,
I knew it was no use.
I'ts been the same way for oh so long,
It looks like i'm singing the same old song.
A fine and fancy man was he,
Doing good things for the poor.
Givin' rides in his rockin' eighty-eight for free.
They could not hope for more.
When it came my turn he said to me,
"have i seen your face before?"
I said, "oh no, you must be wrong,
I'm from a distant shore.
So if you don't mind, i'll just move along
But it looks like i'm singin' the same old song."
A nineteen forty movie star
With a long forgotten name.
She was a sexy mess in her pleated dress,
Still hangin' on to fame.
With forgotten lines she missed her cue
And left a glass of wine at home.
She was singin' the same song that i was.
Could we both be wrong?
So hand in hand we walked along,
Each of us singin' the same old song.

10. _ (somebody Else Been) Shakin' Your Tree
Words and music by billy gibbons.
Well, i'm tryin', yes i'm tryin just to get a line on you
Where you been?
But i'm havin' trouble puttin' a find on you
I'm wearin' thin
Somebody else been shaking your tree.
Supposed to saving all that stuff for me.
You been hidin', yes your're hidin', you been stayin' out on me.
Sneakin' 'round.
Me and you ain't workin' out just like we oughta be.
You've got me down.
Somebody else been shaking your tree.
Supposed to be saving all that stuff for me.
I'm tired of foolin' around with you, and sittin' here alone.
It's on my mind.
I think it's time for me to find a new tree of my own.
It's plantin' time.
Anything you wanna do is cool with me.
I don't care who shakes your tree.
