I don’t believe in politics I don’t believe in religion I don’t believe in good intentions I believe in your love for me I don’t believe in leaders I don’t believe in followers I don’t believe in dealers I believe in your love for me I don’t believe in facebook friends I don’t believe war’s gonna end I don’t believe in the promise land I believe in your love for me Baby when I’m with you the world sure is a better place to be I know I’d go crazy without your love for me I don’t believe in the rich man I don’t believe in the poor man I don’t believe in the righteous man I believe in your love for me I don’t believe in yesterdays I don’t believe in tomorrows I don’t believe in promises I believe in your love for me

Wake up 04:03
lyrics

See that old tramp walking down the street No one looks at him but everybody knows He’s got no place to stay he’s got no place to go He’s just an old man who is alone See that childwoman trying to make a deal She may-be fifteen but she already knows Her world is cold and hard hard like a stone She’s just a child who’s alone Wake up people look all around you Open up your eyes ther’s something you can do Give them a hand and try to understand You can help them out with nothing elsa but love See that old lady sitting in her chair She’s lived long enough long enough to know She’s got nothing to miss no one to care for She’s just a lady who’s alone

I wish I was blind 04:12
lyrics

Lord I wish I was blind I wouldn’t see such misery X2 Everywhere I go I can’t stand the things I see People walk around so ready to be unkind X2 No one seems to care nobody seems to mind Old woman in a doorway trying to stay warm Hasn’t eaten all day she looks lost and forlorn People passing by look the other way With guilt in their eyes and their heart locked away Oh Lord I don’t want to see such misery Everywhere I look misery is all I see Lord won’t help me out this old world’s too much for me X2 Everywhere I go I can’t stand the things I see

Breakdown 03:58
lyrics
buy track
They say love is where the heart is I don’t know where my heart has been They say love is a healer loving you just caused me pain I‘d rather be on a mountain top I’d rather be where there’s no one but me I’d rather have no one to talk to I’d rather have no one to see Well I’ll just go away in the middle of the night Nothing here for me to stay I’ll be gone by morning light They say love is the answer but they always choose the gun They say they care for the hungry but sharing sharing ain’t much fun Well I’m tired of hypocrits I’m tired of phony smiles All those self-righteous people with their cold heartless eyes Well I’ll just sail away in the ocean of my mind I’ll just take my songs with me and leave all the rest behind I’ll just take my songs …

It's the blues 04:03
lyrics
buy track
Sitting here pen in hand trying to write another song The right words don’t seem to land I’ve been at it all night long I wish I could find the lines to say what I want to say Got to ease my troubled mind got to kick my blues away I remember well that day we were making plans We just talked our harts away in love holding hands And though it seems like yesterday a whole year has passed It’s been raining everyday since I saw you last Now it’s the blues all day it’s the blues all night Lord won’t you please blow these clouds away It’s the blues all day it’s the blues all night That light ‘s gonna shine back in my life some day My friends say get out of town I should start anew Stop dragging the past around stop thinking of you And though advice is cheap and easy they mean well I know But it’s driving me crazy to have to let you go Now it’s the blues … I wish that day’d never come in that small cafe I was there reading alone when you looked my way So I introduced myself / you said your name was Sue I put that book back on the shelf and I fell for you Now it’s the blues …

We gotta move on 03:14
lyrics

Would it make you feel better if I got back together with you Would it make you feel better if I fell in love again with you Just like a train never turns around just like smoke never comes down I believe we gotta move on Would it make you feel better if I called you on the telephone Would it make you feel better if I told you that I was wrong What’s done is done and you played your part Why don’t you get a life find a new start I believe we gotta move on I know you feel you got nowhere to turn you’d like me to give you a hand Well sweet heart I don’t want to get burned it’s over can’t you understand We gotta move on I know you feel it was all my doing you need someone you can blame You can churn it all around till your head starts spinning But baby it’s all the same We gotta move on Would it make you feel better if I was sad and sorry all day Would it make you feel better If my world was only cold and grey It’s time you put your feelings on a shelf it’s time you start to look at yourself I believe we gotta move on

Doing alright 04:48
lyrics
buy track
Sometimes it’s hard just to have a good day Turn on the radio listen to the news More killings in the night bad weather’s here to stay Looks like this food’s gonna kill me to Life’s goes on I still got my bills to pay If even in this mess I can still laugh away I’m doing alright It’s hard to love your country these days Anything goes that’s the name of the game Corrupt leaders trying to run things their way Worn out flags trying to cover up the shame Life goes on … Love is hard to find these days Hungry people sleeping in doorways What do you care mister government man What do you care mister preacher man Life goes on …

Music don't break hearts 02:35
lyrics
buy track
Please tell me Lord what am I to do Another day gone by and no one to talk to I had lots of friends my pockets full of money Now that I lost it all my friends have gone away Baby she left me here alone to cry Took off like a light didn’t even say goodbye Now I’m sitting here got my eyes on the phone Hoping she will call but I know she ain’t coming home Now I’ve got this guitar I just sit and sing my songs Music don’t break hearts it’s never done me wrong I could’ve given her the life of a queen Taken her on a jet plane anywhere she’s never been I’m gonna leave town gonna leave town today Catch the first ride out and never come back this way

She left you 04:16
lyrics
buy track
Ain’t no use banging your head against the wall Buddy ain’t no use hitting the door with your fist The only two things worth worrying about are bugs and communists You think that may-be may-be she’ll see the light Realize you’re the only one and not that other guy The only two things on her mind get away from you and never come back She left you she left you seeking a diffrent life She left you she left you grass’ always greener on the other side Stop beating yourself up stop your whining Tomorrow’s a new day and the wheel’s still turning The only two things sure about life It’s a hard road and then you die

Poison good poison air acid rain Nobody cares everyone wants to be a millionaire Street kid so innocent he’s got a gun Nobody cares … Old woman in her room / seen no one for days Nobody cares … God is my money I love my money Lost his job lost his house one more homeless Nobody cares … More and more people trying to survive foodlines are growing Nobody cares … Go dis my money I love my money Hide the truth tell the lie take the bribe Nobody cares … Right is wrong wrong is right we’re going down Nobody cares … God is my money I love my money God is my money I love my money God is my money give me more

The world ain’t doing well today I don’t mind I don’t mind It’s not gonna go away I don’t mind I don’t mind I like the tall grass under my feet I like the sunshine making me warm I like your smile cause it’s so sweet The world can fall apart I don’t mind Everybody’s pressed for time I don’t mind I don’t mind I’ll stand at the end of the line I don’t mind I don’t mind Yes I’ll take my sweet time listening to the birds I’ll take my sweet time watching the stars I’ll walk hand in hand with the one I love The world can fall apart I don’t mind I like the summer breeze the sound of the rain I lke the thunder roaring in the night I like the way you love me it brings me joy The world can fall apart I don’t mind I don’t mind

A whole lotta love 02:57
lyrics

I don’t drive around in a Cadillac I don’t walk around in designer clothes I don’t have many things that sparkle and shine But I’ve got something baby that’ll blow your mind Gotta a whole lotta love you know it’s true Gotta a whole lotta love just for you I’m not a big star everybody knows I’m not a jet setter always on the go ‘Don’t climb high mountains / ‘don’t make the news Why don’t you hang around with me / you got nothing to lose Gotta whole lotta love ... I can’t give you diamonds / can’t give you gold Can’t take you to London / take you to Rome No house on the beach no yatch in the harbour If you hang around with me I’ll give you much better Gotta whole lotta love …
