Beggars and Thieves

I can’t believe what I read today
There’s oil in the ground and there’s hell to pay
I ain’t gonna die for what a man believes
‘Cos they’re are all just living like beggars and thieves
Beggars and thieves ...
Working for a living is a nasty occupation
What’s mine is yours if you get an education
I don't really care if someone over-achieves
‘Cos we’re all just living like beggars and thieves ...
Beggars and thieves ...
Solo
I won’t vote for you, so don’t vote for me
It ain’t gonna work as far as I can see
Your high ideals ain’t gonna set me free
And we’ll carry on living like beggars and thieves
Beggars and thieves ...

Fine wine and whisky at the the hottest little club in town
Something come to nothing and I'm looking just to fool around
Getting some attention and it's plain to see
She want to get my number, I'm honest as can be
I could never love a woman who would ever love a man like me
I love to sing the blues and I love to walk a dangerous line
I know you hate the band, honey but they’re all real good friends of mine
I know that I’m a drifter, I know that I’m a tease
But I never have to think about responsibilities
I could never love a woman who would ever love a man like me
Well, don’t come looking
Ain’t nothing cooking in here
Yeah, so don’t come a crawling
I really ain’t falling for you ..
Dust off my broom, baby ...
Solo
Don’t come looking
Ain’t nothing cooking in here
Yeah, so don’t come a crawling
I ain’t falling for you ..
I met a crazy lady she was trying to make a fool out of me
She was calling up my number, she was staring through my window to see
Well, I think that she found out about my infidelity
She would have killed me with an icepick, and that's a guarantee
I could never love a woman who would ever love a man like me
I could never love a woman who would ever love a man like me
Well that's what I said ...
I could never love a woman who would ever love a man like me

A Night Like This

We take no prisoners
Prepare to die
In a ball of flame
There's no tomorrow
Ain't gonna lie
You wanna play my game?
With fire and thunder, we blew our minds
She had the final kiss
We climbed the mountain
In wind and rain
On a night like this
We blew our minds
On a night like this
We blew our minds
And I can the stars tonight baby
Shooting across the sky
They burning up across the atmosphere
Just like you and I
And I ain't gonna die
My eyes are burning, into your soul
Some people never learn
I get this feelin', I don't know why
That I just wanna burn …
Don't try to stop us, don't try to fight
I know you can't resist
We'll climb the mountain
In wind and rain
On a night like this
And I can the stars tonight baby
Shooting across the sky
They burning up across the atmosphere
Just like you and I
On a night like this
Just like you and I
On a night like this
Just like you and I
On a night like this
Just You and I baby ...

Love Me No More

Time is no healer
When you live in a dream
Drifting into madness all the time
When you lose all your senses
And you long for the light
And nothing you can do will make it right
Once in every lifetime
You find a soul to call your own
And you're living every day like it's your last
And you try not to worry
When the sky starts to fall
And you're flying in a dream that goes too fast
Yeah I know that it's not easy
And I know how hard you try to make it right
But all we ever do is fight
So when you hit that bottle,
As my tears hit the floor,
Please don't say you love me no more
How can I love you
When you don't love yourself?
There's a shadow where your star light used to shine
You don't know what you're saying
And you're travelling alone
I always thought your hand would be in mine
Yeah I know that it's not easy
And I know how hard we tried to make it right
All we ever did was fight
So when you hit that bottle,
As my tears hit the floor,
Please don't say that you love me no more
You know that it's over,
If you walk out that door,
So please don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
Please don't say you love me no more

You think you really got it so bad
Well you're the best friend that I ever had
I'm gonna tell ya how I paid my dues,
I got a friend in the blues
From early morning 'til the sun goes down,
Play my guitar, I don't wear no frown
Don't do nothing that'll dirty my shoes, yeah
I got a friend in the blues
Well, toil and trouble
Steam and bubble away
I'm just playing
I guess I'm saying
Don't want to live my life any other way ,,,,
So when you're lying all alone in the night
Don't you worry 'bout feelin' uptight, 'cos
Think about what you got to lose
You got a friend in the blues
Solo
Well, toil and trouble
Steam and bubble away
I'm just playing
I guess I'm saying
I wouldn't want to live my life any other way ,,,,
So when you're lying all alone in the night
Don't you worry 'bout feelin' uptight, 'cos
You ain't really got that much to lose
You got a friend in the blues
You got a friend in the blues
You got a friend in the blues
You got a friend in the blues
