1. _ Badge
By eric clapton and george harrison
Thinkin' 'bout the times you drove in my car.
Thinkin' that i might have drove you too far.
And i'm thinkin' 'bout the love that you laid on my table.
I told you not to wander 'round in the dark.
I told you 'bout the swans, that they live in the park.
Then i told you 'bout our kid, now he's married to mabel.
Yes, i told you that the light goes up and down.
Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round?
And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down,
Yes, before they bring the curtain down.
Talkin' 'bout a girl that looks quite like you.
She didn't have the time to wait in the queue.
She cried away her life since she fell off the cradle.

2. _ Hoodoo Man

3. _ White Room
By jack bruce and pete brown
In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As i walked out, felt my own need just beginning.
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.

4. _ Old Love
(by eric clapton and robert cray)
I can feel your body
When i'm lying in bed
There's too much confusion
Going around through my head
And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame still burns
Why can't i get over?
When will i ever learn?
Old love, leave me alone
Old love, go on home
I can see your face
But i know that it's not real
It's just an illusion
Caused by how i used to feel
And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame will always burn
I'll never get over
I know now that i'll never learn

5. _ Hard Times
(by ray charles)
My mother told me
'fore she passed away
Said son when i'm gone
Don't forget to pray
'cause there'll be hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than i?
Well i soon found out
Just what she meant
When i had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay the rent
Talkin' 'bout hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than i?
I had a woman
Who was always around
But when i lost my money
She put me down
Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than i?
Lord, one of these days
There'll be no more sorrow
When i pass away
And no more hard times
No more hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than i?

6. _ Bad Love
(by eric clapton and mick jones)
Oh what a feeling i get when i'm with you
You take my heart into everything you do
And it makes me sad for the lonely people
I walked that road for so long
Now i know that i'm one of the lucky people
Your love is making me strong
I've had enough bad love
I need something i can be proud of
I've had enough bad love
No more bad love
And now i see that my life has been so blue
With all the heartaches i had till i met you
But i'm glad to say now that's all behind me
With you here by my side
And there's no more memories to remind me
Your love will keep me alive
Chorus

8. _ Watch Yourself
By buddy guy
You better watch yourself,
You better watch yourself,
You better watch yourself,
I got my eye on you.
You steal my love and go away.
Don't tell me you'll see me another day.
Chorus
You've gone and left me, left me here to cry.
You know i love you, know you're my desire.
Chorus
I give you all my love, everything too,
Fine cadillac, tell me what you gonna do.
Chorus
People are talking all over town.
You say you don't love me, you're gonna put me down.
Chorus
Tell me what's the matter, what you gonna do?
You say you're going to quit me then you say we're through.
Chorus
You better watch yourself,
You better watch yourself,
You better watch yourself,
You better watch yourself,
You better watch yourself,
I got my eye on you.

9. _ Pretending
(by jerry lynn williams)
How many times must we tell the tale?
How many times must we fall?
Living in lost memory
You just recalled
Working on the sound of the band
Trying to get the music right
Two go out working
Three stay home at night
That's when she said she was pretending
Like she knew the plan
That's when i knew she was pretending
Pretending to understand
Pretending, pretending
Pretending, pretending
Satisfied but lost in love
Situations change
You're never who you used to think you are
How strange
Chorus
I get lost in alibis
Sadness can't prevail
Everybody knows strong love
Can't fail
Don't be pretending about how you feel
Don't be pretending that your love is real
Don't be pretending about how you feel
Don't be pretending that your love is real
Pretending, pretending
Pretending, pretending

10. _ Running On Faith
(by jerry lynn williams)
Lately i've been running on faith
What else can a poor boy do?
But my world will be right
When love comes over you
Lately i've been talking in my sleep
I can't imagine what i'd have to say
Except my world will be right
When love comes back your way
I've always been
One to take each and every day
Seems like by now
I'd find a love who cares just for me
Then we'd go running on faith
All of our dreams would come true
And our world will be right
When love comes over me and you
Chorus
Then we'd go running on faith
All of our dreams would come true
And our world will be right
When love comes over me and you
When love comes over you

11. _ Bell Bottom Blues
(by eric clapton)
Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.
I don't want to lose this feeling.
And if i could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms.
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it because
I don't want to fade away.
Give me one more day, please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart i want to stay.
It's all wrong, but it's all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once i was strong but i lost the fight.
You won't find a better loser.
Chorus
Chorus
Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye.
I'm sure we're gonna meet again,
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover.
Chorus
I don't want to fade away.
Give me one more day please.
I don't want to fade away.
In your heart i long to stay.

12. _ Worried Life Blues
By maceo merryweather
Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord.
It hurts me so bad for us to part.
But someday baby,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.
You're on my mind every place i go.
How much i love you, nobody know.
Yeah, someday babe,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.
So many days since you went away.
I've had to worry both night and day.
Yeah, but someday babe,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.
So many nights since you've been gone.
I've been worried, grieving my life alone.
Yeah, but someday babe,
I ain't gonna worry my life any more.
So that's my story and this is all i've got to say to you:
Bye bye, baby, i don't care what you do.

Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord.

13. _ Sunshine Of Your Love
(by eric clapton, jack bruce, ginger baker)
It's getting near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you darling soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.
I've been waiting so long
To be where i'm going
In the sunshine of your love.
I'm with you my love,
The light's shining through on you.
Yes, i'm with you my love,
It's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you darling now,
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up.
Chorus
Second verse
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
To be where i'm going
In the sunshine of your love.

14. _ Have You Ever Loved A Woman
(by billy myles)
Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
And all the time you know she bears another man's name.
But you just love that woman so much it's a shame and a sin.
You just love that woman so much it's a shame and a sin.
But all the time you know she belongs to your very best friend.
Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Something deep inside of you won't let you wreck your best friend's home.

15. _ Wonderful Tonight
(by eric clapton)
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do i look alright
And i say yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And i say yes, i feel wonderful tonight
I feel wonderful
Because i see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much i love you
It's time to go home now
And i've got an aching head
So i give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then i tell her
As i turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
