This Ain't No Love Song
04:07

When someone says one thing and does another
It almost seems there's nothing you can do
Except try and try to make it better
And wonder why you do the things that you do
So I try and I try to make it better
By always being there and staying true
But a person's heart and soul is one that's tender
And you know it's always your mind that'll choose
Well I know it's a shame and I tried to play the game
When I didn't know what else to do
And when push comes to shove I always rise above
But this time I'm battered and bruised
What a shame, what a shame you can't remember
That it's your intentions and not your inventions that define you
Who's to blame, who's to blame when one surrenders
And figures out why, who becomes who
If it's a phone call that you want, I'm your operator
And I'll be your chef if food is your necessity
If it's a letter that you need, I'll be your sender
And you know I'll be the captain of your ship should you sail out to sea
Well I know it's a shame and I tried to play the game
When I didn't know what else to do
And when push comes to shove I always rise above
But this time I'm battered and bruised
Well I know it's a shame and I tried to play the game
When I didn't know what else to do
And when push comes to shove I always rise above
But this time I'm battered and bruised

Back On Track
03:09
|

Waiting outside your door on a cold snowy night
It's been two days since we had our last fight
Don't know if you're ever coming back
But I'll be here to get us back on track
Back on track, well, let's talk about me and you, babe
Back on track, I'll forget about the things you do, babe
Back on track, no, our love is not the best, but I'm too scared to try the rest
Too scared to try the rest, too scared to try the rest
Then I'm thinking, what if they're all just like you
And is it worth after what you put me through
You pull up in your old Pontiac
Say you wanna get things back on track
Back on track, well, let's talk about me and you, babe
Back on track, I'll forget about the things you do, babe
Back on track, no, our love is not the best, but I'm too scared to try the rest
Too scared to try the rest, too scared to try the rest
Then you tell me that I'm easily replaced
And you go and put your hands around my waist
I tell you I ain't nobody fall back
Just forget about getting back on track
Back on track, yeah, let's talk about me and you, babe
Back on track, no I won't forget the things you do, babe
Back on track, well I'm leaving you for good
Embracing my livelihood, embracing my livelihood, I'll embrace my livelihood

Winter Blues
04:07
|
|||
Finally the days are getting longer
Finally the days are getting longer
I was starting to think this winter had a hold on me
I really wish that all this shit would blow away in the breeze
Daytime sky is crying just for some sun
Daytime sky is crying just for some sun
Longer days, longer days please
Heard on that radio the clocks'll chase in a couple of weeks
There is no prediction for the situation
There is no prediction for the situation
Wonder how long 'til my boots will stay dry
Wonder how long 'til I see that summer night time sky

Don't Tell Me To Smile

Don't tell me to smile, yeah I'll be happy in a while
When you're 500 miles away from me
Well, I'd put you on a plane and fly you far away
So you go away and leave me be
Well, I was walking home the other day after a long shift at work
When this guy starts walking towards me with a smug little smirk
He says "hey, you ever think about putting a smile on that pretty face?"
And well, as you might imagine, I was not impressed
You don't think it could be worse, I got a gun right in my purse
I'll shoot you in the ass and then you'll scream
You know that still it could be worse, you could be hog tied in a hearse
And you know the devil ain't never gonna leave you be
And do you wanna know what he said to me?!
He told me to take it as a compliment
I told him to take his compliment and shove it
Then he called me a bitch, so I asked if he had some sort of death wish
Then he looked at me with that ugly mug and said "girl, you're crazy" and I said "HA HA, yeah, maybe!"
But at least I hold my own while you'll be crying all alone
With your low down, good for nothing personality
Yeah, maybe I'd suggest - quit showing Rosie on your chest
And learn how to be a real man someway
Don't tell me to smile, yeah I'll be happy in a while
When you're 500 miles away from me
Well, I'd put you on a plane and fly you far away
So you go away and leave me be
(Sarah Cutler, Jon Hanlon)

This Lonesome Town
04:22
|
|

Your telephone calls
They just make me sick
And I'm about ready
To give up on all of it
The least that you could do
Is spare me some of your time
'Cause I always end up feeling I'm
At the end of the line
Being with you is all I can do
To get out of this lonesome town
All I can say
Is maybe someday
I'll find out I don't love you, too
Love you, too
Yeah, you're got something
Something over me
It's some sort of feeling, lord
That I only I can see
It pushes and it pulls
And it leaves me in the dirt
Oh, I start to wonder
Is love supposed to hurt
Being with you
Is all I can do
To get out of this lonesome town
All I can say
Is maybe someday
I'll find out I don't love you, too
Love you, too
Oh, here it comes
Just another day
Of you yellin' at me
I'm always in your way
Tellin' me lies
And holdin' me so tight
Acting like it's not your fault
You'd never start a fight
Being with you
Is all I can do
To get out of this lonesome town
All I can say
Is maybe someday
I'll find a love who loves me, too
Loves me, too
