Back on the Road Again

Please don't hate me mama for what I'm about to do
But the good times we've had together are just about now through
Please don't misunderstand me, I hate to see you cry
But I think that it might look better if I told you now goodbye
I'm back on the road again, it's time I leave you now
And maybe I'll see you next time, that I'm around
Until then I hope your happy baby and good times come your way

I'm back on the road again, I'm on my way
Well I've loved you since the day I met you and I'll love you till the day I die
But we both know the life I'm livin and we both know the reason why
That I've got to leave ya mama and I've got to leave today
But you know that I'll see you next time that I come through your town to play
ooh, bye-bye baby
ooh, bye-bye baby

I Need A Lover

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Some girl that knows the meaning of, ah-

Hey hit the highway!

Well I've been walking the streets in the evenin'
Racin' through the human jungle at night
I'm so confused, my mind is indifferent
Hey - I'm so weak, won't somebody shut off that light?

Electricity runs through the video
And I watch it from this hole I call home
And all them stonies are dancin' to the radio
And I got the world callin' me up free tonight on the phone

(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
Some girl who'll thrill me and then go away
(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
Some girl that knows the meaning of ah-

Hey hit the highway!

Well I'm not wiped out by this poolroom life I'm livin'
I'm gonna quit this job, and go to school, and head back home
(head back home)
Now I'm not asking to be loved or be forgiven
Hey - I just can't face shakin' in this bedroom
One more night alone

(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
Some girl that knows the meaning of ah-

Hey hit the highway!

(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
Some girl to thrill me and then go away
(I need a lover that won't drive me crazy)
Some girl that knows the meaning of ah-

Hey hit the highway!

You betcha'

I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do)

Easy, ready, willing, overtime
Where does it stop
Where do you dare me
To draw the line
You've got the body
Now you want my soul
Don't even think about it
Say no go

I, I 'll do anything
That you want me to do
And I'll do almost anything
That you want me to, ooh

But I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
No, I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
I can't go for that, no (no) no can do

I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that

I can go for being twice as nice
I can go for just repeating
The same old lines
Use the body
Now you want my soul
Ooh, forget about it
Now say no go

I, I'll do anything
That you want me to do
I'll do almost anything
That you want me to

But I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
I can't go for that, no (no) no can do

I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that

Yeah, I, I'll do anything
That you want me to do
And I'll do almost anything
That you want me to

But I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
I can't go for that, no (no) no can do

I can't go for that
Can't go for that
Can't go for that
I can't go for that

No I can't go for that, no (no) no can do
I can't go for that, no no, no can do
I can't go for that, (no no no no) no I can't go for that

I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do)
No can't do
I can't go for that (no no no no can't do)
I can't go for that
I can't go for that, yeah (no can do)
No, no, no, no, no, no

Immortal Rites

Gathered for a sacred rite

Subconscious minds allied

Call upon immortals

Call upon the oldest one to intercede

Rid us of our human waste

Cleanse our earthly lives

Make us one with darkness

Enlighten us to your ways

From churning worlds of mindlessness

Come screams unheard before

Haunting voices fill the room

Their source remaining undefined

Shadows cast from faceless beings

Lost for centuries

Lords of death, I summon you

Reside within our brains

Cast your spells upon our lives

So that we may receive

The gift of immortality

Bestowed on those who seek you

Immortal Rites

Same Old Madness

In the morning, reading the paper
Read the front page to the back page
Welcome to the nuclear age
No more time for vicious outrage

Same old madness same old madness
Same old madness same old madness

Riots in London, riots in Ireland
Riots in Tokyo, riots in Thailand
Riots right here in our homeland
Reagan sits behind while sneering
Soviets are domineering
Third world states need engineering
No more time for loving and caring

Same old madness same old madness
Same old madness same old madness

In the evening, reading the paper
Read the front page through the back page
Welcome to the modern age
It's the very latest craze

Same old madness same old madness
Same old madness same old madness
Same old madness same old madness
Same old madness same old madness

Wasteland

There's a crystal view from my window
And I can see years to come
I live for the burn and the sting of pleasure
I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun
I can tear down the walls, storm them barricades
Run to the place where the frightened crawl
Desire lurks beyond good and evil
So dance on the graves where the hammer falls

Over this land
All over this wasteland
Over this land
All over this wasteland

You can touch, but please keep your distance
You're innocent and pure and with no shame
The spirit is willing, and the flesh is great
Your teasing your torment with the pleasure of pain

Heaven and Hell, I know them well
But I haven't yet made my choice
I'm feeling dead 'cause I'm shouting loud
And NO ONE can hear my voice
Walking the tightwire, can't look down
Strung out high, above you all
Faithful wind blows through this land
Howls my name, Hell is my fall.

Slave To Love

Tell her I'll be waiting
In the usual place
With the tired and weary
And there's no escape
To need a woman
You've got to know
How the strong get weak
And the rich get poor
Slave to love

Oh
Slave to love
You're running with me
Don't touch the ground
We're the restless hearted
Not the chained and bound
The sky is burning
A sea of flame
Though your world is changing
I will be the same
Slave to love
Oh
Slave to love
Slave to love (Na, na, na, na)
Oh
(Na, na, na, na)
Slave to love
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love
Oh, oh
The storm is breaking
Or so it seems
We're too young to reason
Too grown up to dream
And the spring is turning
Your face to mine
I can hear your laughter
I can see your smile
Slave to love (Na, na, na, na)
Oh
(Na, na, na, na)
Slave to love
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love
Slave to love (Na, na, na, na)
Oh
(Na, na, na, na)
Slave to love
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love
Slave to love
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love
Slave to love
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love
Slave to love
And I can't escape
