Just Want To Be Loved By You
Written by Gene MacLellan
Some folks scale a mountain high
Some folks sale the sea
Some go into politics or teach philanthropy.
Some head for the great unknown in search of something new.
I don’t need that kind of stuff, just wanna be loved by you
Just wanna be loved by you
Cause that’s the only thing I’ll ever do
Just want a love that is true
Honey when the son goes down, I wanna be found in a cosy place with you.
Some folks search the world for fame, while others dig for gold
Some folks play a waiting game until one day their old
Some folks never learn until they reach their Waterloo
Don’t need that kind of stuff , just wanna be loved by you.
Some folks live in palaces with servants all around
Looking for the kind of thing that you and I have found
You don’t have to tell me twice, I already knew
Don’t need that kind of stuff , just wanna be loved by you
Course
Don’t need that kinda stuff just wanna be loved by you. X 3

Stop Stop Stop
Written by The Hollies
See the girl with cymbals on her fingers
Entering through the door
Ruby glistening from her navel
Shimmering around the floor
Bells on feet go, ting a ling a linging
Going through my head
Sweat is falling just-a-like-a tear drops
Running from her head
Now she dancing, going through the movements
Swaying to and fro
Body moving, bringing back a memory
Thoughts of long ago
Blood is rushing, temperature is rising
Sweating from my brow
Like a snake, her body fascinates me
I can’t look away now
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I’ll have to leave
Now, she’s moving all around the tables
Luring all in sight
But I know that she cannot see me
Hidden by the light
Closer, closer, she is getting nearer
Soon she’ll be in reach
As I enter into a spotlight
She stands lost for speech
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I’ll have to leave
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I’ll have to leave
Now I hold her, people are staring
Don’t know what to think
And we struggle knocking over tables
Spilling all the drinks
Can’t they understand that I want her?
Happens every week
Heavy hand upon my collar
Throws me in the street
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I’ll have to leave, leave

Strength In Numbers
Written by Thomas Webb
The World’s seen many Battles
From Great Wars to Bar fights
And with a few right moves
a man becomes a hero overnight
but where does courage come from
Is it bought or is it found
They say theres strength in numbers
I guess I’ll have another round
It doesn’t only come from combat
prove yourself in other ways
David’s Rock and Sling or Ali’s Ring
They’ve had their yesterdays
Perhaps Today is my turn
I’ll sail my ship for higher ground
They say there’s strength in numbers
I guess I’ll have another round
When Push Comes to Shove, I hope a power above
Can show me how to help myself
Perhaps the answer I need
is a bit closer to me
For sale on the bottom shelf
But Ive Got all my friends here
Just take a look around
They say theres strength in Numbers
I guess I’ll have another round
Would the power above, through Guidance and love
Teach me how to help myself
Perhaps the answer I need
is a bit closer to me
For sale on the bottom shelf
But Ive got all my friends here
Just take a look around
They say theres strength in Numbers
I guess I’ll have another round

Like It That Way
Written by Peter Cann
You say you want a lover
There's no other and that you'll never stray
Hey I like, Hey I like it that way
You say you'll never leave me and
I wish I could believe what you say
Hey I like, Hey I like it that way
Every night you come to town
You let me down the very next day
Hey I like, Hey I like it that way
You tell me that you love me
Then you take my heart and throw it away
Hey I like, Hey I like it that way
You left me drowning in the drop of your ocean
I was swimming in
Then you pulled me out before I could sink in again
Hold my head under I wonder
If I'll ever see light of day
Then I remember I like it that way

Dreamland
Written by Gordie MacKeeman
In Dreamland there are family, that you never knew.
They’ve come down from heaven, just to be there with you.
Run into their arms , into their warm embrace.
With that familuar love , you’l Be in a happy place.
Close your eyes and go to sleep.
Not time to talk , not time to speak.
Lay down your head it’s time for bed.
My little one, my little one,my little one.
My little one, my little one,my little one.

Morning Train
Written by David Francey
I met Jesus in the morning
He was waiting for a train
He said He thought it might be time
To come down and explain
How wrong it was to do some things
And do them in His name
He said, "After all, everybody's
Riding on this train"
I met Buddha on the subway
On the subway underground
Saw his smile slowly fade
I saw him look around
He said He wished we'd understand
And do so in His name
He said, "After all, everybody's
Riding on this train"
Met Allah on the El train
Above the city streets
We rattled down the railway line
And we looked down on the meek
He said He wondered why it was
Some never feel the pain
He said, "After all, everybody's
Riding on this train"
I saw the Devil standing
At the station in the rain
He had a smile upon his face
Self-satisfied and vain
Said, "Heaven is its own reward
I don't have to explain"
He said, "After all, everybody's
Riding on this train"

Honey
Written by Peter Cann
Honey, hey hey
How can you be so cruel
You don't call me Honey
When I give you all my Money
But you know I always do
How can you do what you do
And have me so hung up on you
Honey, hey hey
How can you be this way
I find it very hard
When you take my credit card
And go shopping for the day
How can you do what you do
And have me so hung up on you
For some time
You would take what's mine
When I laid it on the table for you babe
What's mine is yours
But yours ain't always mine
You'll find out in time I'll soon be leaving
You don't believe me
Honey, hey hey
There will come a day
There will come a day
That you look my way
I won't be there any more
How can you do what you do
And have me so hung up on you

Run With Us
Written by Kevin Gillis
When darkness falls
Leaving shadows in the night
Don't be afraid
Wipe that fear from your eyes
If a desperate love
Keeps on driving you wrong
Don't be afraid
You're not alone
You can run with us
We've got everything you need
Run with us
We are free
Come with us
I see passion in your eyes
Run with us
When the cold wind blows
Turn your collar to the cold
Don't be ashamed
If you need someone to hold
If you're sinking in quicksand
And it's dragging you down
And you feel you're going under
We'll be around
You can run with us
We've got everything you need
Run with us
We are free
Come with us
I see passion in your eyes
Run with us
When you're behind closed doors
All alone by yourself
And you're longing inside
To be somebody else
You pick up the telephone
And there's no one on the line
Don't be afraid
'Cause there's still time
You can run with us
We've got everything you need
Run with us
We are free
Come with us
I see passion in your eyes
Run with us
Oh-oh-oh, run with us
We've got everything you need
Run with us
We are free
Come with us
I see passion in your eyes
Run with us

Sittin' In a Bar
Written by Gordie MacKeeman
Sittin' in a bar with nobody
Making my selection of one of these wannabes
But I think I'm gonna be alone tonight
I'm okay with the average life, all I'm looking for is a loving wife
But I think I'm gonna be alone tonight
There used to be a time I would flash a smile, and the girls would come a running, they'd be going wild.
But now I'm just a lonely guy in a bar.
I'm not over the hill, but got a good view.
Haven't been young stuff in a while it's true.
I see loneliness before the night is though
Bartender says it's time to go
I'll give you one more drink, then you gotta hit the road.
I get off my stool, to make one round.
To see if what I am looking for is in this crowd.
I knew before I left my seat, what I'm looking for can't be found.
Sittin' in a bar with nobody
Making my selection of one of these wannabes
But I think I'm gonna be alone tonight
I'm okay with the average life, all I'm looking for is a loving wife
But I think I'm gonna be alone tonight
Bartender says it's time to go.
As I told you before, it's time you outta hit the road.
As I make my way on towards the door I tell myself, I'll come here no more.
But as tomorrow night rolls around, if your looking for me I'll be hanging around
Just Sittin' in a bar with nobody
Making my selection of one of these wannabes
But I think I'm gonna be alone tonight
I'm okay with the average life, all I'm looking for is a loving wife
But I think I'm gonna be alone tonight

Said Too Much
Written by Jason Burbine
Chorus—
I said too much and now I feel like dying
‘Cause you teased a broken man and you left him dry
I wish that I could see that you were only playin me
Another lonesome dontsome fool just left to die
How dare you look so pretty every day
How dare you look and smile at me that way
Even before I knew your name
Well I felt about just the same
Apparently I still know not what to say
You walk past and I can barely hold myself up
I’m so jealous of your lucky little coffee cup
With every little sip my heart begins to tip
Until it falls and can’t seem to get back up
To chorus
I don’t know how you do what you do
But there ain’t nobody who does what you do better than you
I love when you’re around but if you could just tone it down
‘Cause there’s nothin I want to do more than you
To chorus
Another lonesome dontsome fool just left to die
Reprise—
Hey another lonesome dontsome fool
Another lonesome dontsome fool just left to die (4x)

Why I’m Right
Written by Gordie MacKeeman
Not trying to argue dear, just trying to explain why I'm right.
Don't know what it was that changed. Don't look at me, I'm not the one who started the fight.
I was a drinker when you met me, don't know why your trying to change me now.
I'm not gonna change. Too old to rearrange. Chew on that while I pour myself a crown.
It's a gutsy thing to say, we are through.
I live far from the path that you want me too.
Drinking put a gap between me and you.
I won't be treated like a worn out shoe, this marriage has put miles on my liver too.
It's a gutsy thing to say we are through.
It's a gutsy thing , because I still love you.
It's scary when you realize , something held dear might be coming to an end.
Plain and simple I love every ounce of you, just wanted to make sure you understand.
So no matter , what ever happens, you should know that you are in my soul.
From the day you stole my heart, until the day death do us part, til the day we grow old.
It's a gutsy thing to say, we are through.
I live far from the path that you want me too.
Drinking put a gap between me and you.
I won't be treated like a worn out shoe, this marriage has put miles on my liver too.
It's a gutsy thing to say we are through.
It's a gutsy thing , because I still love you.
Not trying to argue dear, just trying to explain why I'm right.
