1. _ Tequila Sunrise
It's another tequila sunrise
Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said goobye
He was just a hired hand
Workin' on the dreams he planned to try
The days go by
Ev'ry night when the sun goes down
Just another lonely boy in town
And she's out runnin' 'round
She wasn't just another woman
And i couldn't keep from comin' on
It's been so long
Oh, and it's a hollow feelin' when
It comes down to dealin' friends
It never ends
Take another shot of courage
Wonder why the right words never come
You just get numb
It's another tequila sunrise,this old world
Still looks the same,
Another frame, mm...

2. _ Desperado
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow
Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of heats is always your best bet
Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get
Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're loosin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late

3. _ Doolin-dalton
They were duelin', doolin-dalton
High or low, it was the same
Easy money and faithless women
Red-eye whiskey for the pain
Go down, bill dalton, it must be god's will,
Two brothers luin' dead in coffeyville
Two voices call to you from where they stood
Lay down your lay books now
They're no damn good
Better keep on movin', doolin-dalton
'til your shadow sets you free
If you're fast, and if you're lucky
You will never see that hangin' tree
Well, the towns lay out across the dusty plains
Like graveyards filled with tombstones, waitin' for the names
And a man could use his back, or use his brains
But some just went stir crazy, lord, 'cause nothin' ever changed
'til bill doolin met bill dalton
He was workin' cheap, just bidin' time
Then he laughed and said,"i'm goin,"
And so he left that peaceful life behind
Mm...

4. _ Lyin' Eyes
City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man
And she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess ev'ry form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is
Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the nice anticipating
'cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
She rushes to his arms,
They fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
You can't hid your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't now way to hide you lyin' eyes
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be
You can't hide your lyin eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes

5. _ James Dean
James dean, james dean
I know just what you mean
James dean, you said it all so clean
And i know my life would look allright
If i could see it on the silver screen
You were the lowdown rebel if there ever was
Even if you had no cause
James dean, you said it all so clean
And i know my life would look all right
If i could see it on the silver screen
We'll talk about a low-down bad refrigerator,
You were just too cool for school
Sock hop, soda pop, basketball and auto shop,
The only thing that got you off was breakin' all the rules
James dean, james dean
So hungry and so lean
James dean, you said it all so clean
And i know my life would look all right
If i could see it on the silver screen
Little james dean, up on the screen
Wond'rin' who he might be
Along came a spyder and picked up a rider
And took him down the road to eternity
James dean, james dean, you bought it sight unseen
You were too fast to live, too young to die, bye-bye
You were to fast to live, too young to die, bye-bye
Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye, bye

6. _ Take It Easy
Well, i'm running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on
My mind,
Four that wanna own me,
Two that wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy
Well, i'm a standing on a corner
In winslow, arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
Gonna save me
We may lose and we may win though
We will never be here again
So open up, i'm climbin' in,
So take it easy
Well i'm running down the road trying to loosen
My load, got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my
Cover, she's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own
Wheels make you crazy
Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
Gonna save me, oh oh oh
Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy

7. _ Heartache Tonight
Somebody's gonna hurt someone
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone.
There's nothin' we can do.
Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night.
Everybody wants to take a little chance,
Make it come out right.
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
A heartache tonight, i know.
There's gonna be a heartache tonight, i know.
Lord, i know.
Some people like to stay out late
Some folks can't hold out that long
But nobody wants to go home now.
There's too much goin' on.
This night is gonna last forever.
Last all, last all summer long.
Some time before the sun comes up
The radio is gonna play that song.
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
A heartache tonight, i know.
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
A heartache tonight, i know.
Lord i know.
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
The moon's shinin' bright
So turn out the light, and we'll get it right.
There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a
Heartache tonight i know.
Heartache baby,
Somebody's gonna hurt someone, (somebody)
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone,
There's nothin' we can do
(everybody) everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
To make it come out right
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, i know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
A heartache tonight ,i know
Let's go.
We can beat around the bushes;
We can get down to the bone
We can leave it in the parkin' lot,
But either way, there's gonna be a
Heartache tonight, a heartache tonight i know.
There'll be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight i know.

8. _ Witchy Woman
Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her finger tips
Echoed voices in the night
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight
Wooo hooo witchy woman, see how
High she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman she got
The moon in her eye
She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another
Room and she drove herself to madness
With a silver spoon
Woo hoo witchy woman see how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman she got the moon in her eye
Well i know you want a lover,
Let me tell your brother, she's been sleeping
In the devil's bed.
And there's some rumors going round
Someone's underground
She can rock you in the nighttime
'til your skin turns red
Woo hoo witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye

9. _ Hotel California
hotel california
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, i saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And i was thinking to myself,
'this could be heaven or this could be hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought i heard them say...
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here
Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So i called up the captain,
'please bring me my wine'
He said,'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the hotel california
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing i remember, i was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place i was before
'relax,'said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!

10. _ The Best Of My Love
Every night i'm lyin' in bed
Holdin' you close in my dreams
Thinkin' about all the things that we said
And comin' apart at the seams
We try to talk it over
But the words come out too rough
I know you were tryin'
To give me the best of your love
Beautiful faces and loud, empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wastin' our time on cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give
That same old crowd
Was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above
But here in my heart i give you the best of my love
Oh sweet darlin' you get the best of my love, oh
Sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
I'm goin' back in time
And it's a sweet dream
It was a quiet night
And i would be all right
If i could go on sleepin'
But every mornin'
I wake up and worry
What's gonna happen today
You see it your way
And i see it mine
But we both see it slippin' away
You know we always had each other baby
I guess that wasn't enough
Oh, but here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin'
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin'
You get the best of my love
Every night and day,
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin' you get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin' you get the best of my love..

11. _ The Long Run
I used to hurry a lot, i used to worry a lot
I used to stay out till the break of day
Oh, that didn't get it,
It was high time i quit it
I just couldn't carry on that way
Oh, i did some damage, i know it's true
Didn't know i was so lonely , till i found you
You can go the distance
We'll find out in the long run
(in the long run)
We can handle some resistance
If our love is a strong one (is a strong one)
People talkin' about is
They got nothin' else to do
When it all comes down we will
Still come through
In the long run
Ooh, i want to tell you, it's a long run
You know i don't understand why you don't
Treat yourself better
Do the crazy things that you do
'cause all the debutantes in houston, baby,
Couldn't hold a candle to you
Did you do it for love?
Did you do it for money?
Did you do it for spite?
Did you think you had to, honey?
Who is gonna make it?
We'll find out in the long run
(in the long run)
I know we can take it
If our love is a strong one
(is a strong one)
Well, we're scared, but we ain't shakin'
Kinda bent, but we ain't breakin'
In the long run
Ooh, i want to tell you, it's a long run
In the long run
In the long run, etc...

12. _ New Kid In Town
There's talk on the street; it sounds so familiar
Great expectations, everybody's watching you
People you meet, they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treay you like you're something new
Johnny come lately, the new kid in town
Everybody loves you, so don't let them down
You look in her eyes; the music begins to play
Hopeless romantics, here we go again
But after awhile, you're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts that never mend
Johnny come lately, the new kid in town
Will she still love you when you're not around?
There's so many things you should have told her,
But night after night you're willing to hold her,
Just hold her, tears on your shoulder
There's talk on the street, it's there to
Remind you, that it doesn't really matter
Which side you're on.
You're walking away and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along
Where you been lately? there's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him, don't they?
Now he's holding her, and you're still around
Oh, my, my
There's a new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's walking' like the new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town

13. _ One Of These Nights
One of these nights
One of these crazy old nights
We're gonna find out
Pretty mama
What turns on your lights
The full moon is calling
The fever is high
And the wicked wind whispers
And moans
You got your demons
You got desires
Well, i got a few of my own
Oo, someone to be kind to in
Between the dark and the light
Oo, coming right behind you
Swear i'm gonna find you
One of these nights
One of these dreams
One of these lost and lonely dreams
We're gonna find one
One that really screams
I've been searching for the daughter
Of the devil himself
I've been searching for an angel in white
I've been waiting for a woman who's a little
Of both
And i can feel her but she's nowhere
In sight
Oo, loneliness will blind you
In between the wrong and the right
Oo, coming right behind you
Swear i'm gonna find you
One of these nights
One of these nights
In between the dark and the light
Coming right behind you
Swear i'm gonna find you
Get 'ya baby one of these nights
One of these nights
One of these nights
I can feel it
I can feel it
One of these nights
Coming right behind you
Swear i'm gonna find you now
One of these nights..etc....

14. _ I Can't Tell You Why
Look at us baby, up all night
Tearing our love apart
Aren't we the same two people who live
Through years in the dark?
Ahh...
Every time i try to walk away
Something makes me turn around and stay
And i can't tell you why
When we get crazy,
It just ain't to right,
(try to keep you head, little girl)
Girl, i get lonely, too
You don't have to worry
Just hold on tight
(don't get caught in your little world)
'cause i love you
Nothing's wrong as far as i can see
We make it harder than it has to be
And i can't tell you why
No, baby, i can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
No, no, baby, i can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why

15. _ Take It To The Limit
All alone at the end of the of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue
I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have
Loved me and i never knew
You know i've always been a dreamer
(spent my life running 'round)
And it's so hard to change
(can't seem to settle down)
But the dreams i've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same
So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time
You can spend all your time making money
You can spend all your love making time
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine?
And when you're looking for your freedom
(nobody seems to care)
And you can't find the door
(can't find it anywhere)
When there's nothing to believe in
Still you're coming back, you're running back
For more
So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time
Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit one more time

16. _ Life In The Fast Lane
He was a hard-headed man
He was brutally handsome, and she was teminally pretty
She held him up, and he held her for ransome in the heart
Of the cold, cold city
He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude
They said he was ruthless, they said he was crude
They had one thing in common, they were
Good in bed
She'd say, 'faster,faster. the lights are turnin' red."
Life in the fast lane
Surely make you lose your mind, mm
Are you with me so far?
Eager for action and bot for the game
The coming attraction, the drop of a name
They knew all the right people, they took
All the right pills
They threw outrageous parties, they paid heavily bills.
There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face
She pretended not to notice, she was caught up
In the race
Out every evening, until it was light
He was too tired to make it, she was too tired
To fight about it
Life in the fast lane
Surely make you lse your mind
Life in the fast lane, everything all the time
Life in the fast lane, uh huh
Blowin' and burnin', blinded by thirst
They didn't see the stop sign,
Took a turn for the worst.
She said, "listen, baby.you can hear the engine
Ring.we've been up and down this highway;
Haven't seen a goddam thing."
He said,"call the doctor. i think i'm gonna crash."
"the doctor say he's comin', but you gotta pay him cash."
They went rushin' down that freeway, messed around
And got lost
They didn't know they were just dyin' to get off
And it was life in the fast lane
Life in the fast lane

17. _ Peaceful Easy Feeling
I like the way your sparkling earrings lay,
Against your skin, it's so brown
And i wanna sleep with you
In the desert tonight
With a billion stars all around
'cause i gotta peaceful easy feeling
And i know you won't let me down
'cause i'm already standing on the
Ground
And i found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul
Ah, but she can't take you anyway
You don't already know how to go
And i gotta peaceful, easy feeling
And i know you won't let me down
'cause i'm already standing on the ground
I get this feeling i may know you
As a lover and a friend
But this voice keeps whispering
In my other ear, tells me
I may never see you again
'cause i get a peaceful, easy feeling
And i know you won't let me down
'cause i'm already standing on the ground
'cause i'm already standing...
On the ground
Oooo, oooo
