3 ContributorsEight Days On The Road LyricsJerry Ragavay / Micheal Gayle - Ragmar Music - BMI

 

Sugar lady, be my saviour

'Cause I'm tired, I've been eight days on the road

That's right, eight days on the road

Travelin' through the night

There ain't no town, ain't no town, ain't no rest tonight

 

Broke and busted, standin' on the county line

I've been traveling eight days on the road

That's right, well, eight days on the road

Travelin' through the night

There ain't no town, ain't no town, ain't no rest tonight, oh

 

I'm out here thinkin', thinkin' 'bout what I've done

That's why, oh that's why, I'm eight days on the road

That's right, well eight days on the road

Travelin' through the night

I'm comin' home, I won't be long, I'll make Birmingham tonight

 

{Rod - Solo}

 

Oh sugar lady, be my saviour

'Cause I'm broke, busted, I've been eight days on the road

Hitchhike, I've been eight days on the road

Travelin' through the night...

There ain't no town, there ain't no town, there ain't no rest tonight

 

 

Comin' home, and I won't be long (Eight days on the road)

Sugar lady don't you do me no wrong (Eight days on the road)

Ridin' on the highway and I'm outta luck (Eight days on the road)

Mmmmm - ooh ooh

 

I'm makin' it back to you

Makin' it back to you

Makin' it back to you

Makin' it back to you

Eight days on the road

Eight days on the road

 

Eight days, well, whoo!

2 ContributorsHate To See You Go LyricsPrice / Peverett - Knee Trembler Music - ASCAP

 

It's hard to love somebody, and leave her all the time

It's hard to be a friend, easy to be unkind

You treat me like a stranger, and I can understand

'Cause you're a lonely woman, and I'm a travelin' man, well

 

Lookin' through the window, I saw you wave goodbye

I tried to raise a smile, all I could do was cry

A man needs a woman, to stand by his side

And I need you, to keep me satisfied

 

Well, I hate to see you cry

Wipe the water from your eye

I'd love to hear you say, you need me anyway

There's one thing you should know

I hate to see, hate to see you go

 

Well if you ever leave me, I'll be the one to blame

But I never gambled to play a losin' game

My cards are on the table, I ain't a cheatin' man

I'm livin' for your lovin', I hope you understand

 

Well, I hate to see you cry

Wipe the water from your eye

I'd love to hear you say, you need me anyway

There's one thing you should know

I hate to see, hate to see you go

 

 

All the miles between us, you and I

All the lonely nights we sat and cried

Too many to replace, and it's too hard to erase

I don't know what to do

Well I don't know what to do, no

Woo

 

{Rod - Solo}

 

Lookin' through the window, I saw you wave goodbye

I tried to raise a smile, all I could do was cry

A man needs a woman, I want you to know

Well I need you, I hate to see you go

3 ContributorsRock and Roll Outlaw LyricsStick 'em up!

 

Undercover of the silver moon, run for cover

There's a lover with a magic gun

Gonna work you over, roll you in the clover

 

'Cause he's a rock and roll outlaw with a six string gun, stealin' love for fun

Sayin' c'mon baby, let's ride tonight, until the risin' sun

 

We gotta ride, ride, ride, ride, ride

 

When I spot you, put your love in my hands, 'cause I got you

When I catch you, won't know how to behave

My heart is drummin', and trouble is comin'

 

'Cause I'm a rock and roll outlaw with a six string gun, stealin' love for fun

When I go down baby, goin' down for love, so let the beat go on

Shoot 'em up now baby!

 

{Instrumental}

 

After midnight, when the beat is strong by the moonlight

After midnight, though I know it's wrong

I have me a lover, and then I start on another

 

'Cause I'm a rock and roll outlaw with a six string gun, stealin' love for fun

Sit back baby, 'cause I need all night, until the job is done

 

 

And I'm a rock and roll outlaw with a six string gun, take your love and run

Sayin' c'mon baby let's rock tonight, Well let the beat go on

 

I'm a rock and roll outlaw, woo

Gonna roll you over, yeah

C'mon baby, yeah

C'mon baby, well, well

Well I'm a rock, rock, rock ,rock

Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock

A rock and roll outlaw

C'mon baby, woo hoo!

Stick 'em up, woo hoo

Put your hands up high...

2 ContributorsBlue Spruce Woman LyricsDavid Anderson - Fourth Floor Music - ASCAP

 

Well my blue spruce woman came outta' the woods up to my city flat

Look like she been playin' with the animals, I couldn't tell her that

She made me an offer, I took my time

Before I knew it she was blowin' my mind

She's my blue spruce woman she ain't no friend of mine

 

Well my woodsy woman got tight with the city

Didn't even mind the smoke and confusion

Tried to get a gig slinging hash in a greasy spoon

Crashin' for nickles and coke

She didn't ignore me, I wish she would

She makin' me feel, anything but good

She's my blue spruce woman she sure ain't no friend of mine

 

I love that woman and she loves me

I want that woman, I gotta make her be

It's amazing, the way she make me feel

It's amazing, the way she make me feel

The way she make me feel

 

{Dave - Solo}

 

I love that woman and she loves me

I want that woman, I gotta make her be

It's amazing, the way she make me feel

It's amazing, the way she make me feel

The way she make me feel

 

 

{Rod - Slide Solo}

 

Blue spruce woman, she ain't no friend of mine

Blue spruce woman, she ain't no friend of mine

Blue spruce woman, she ain't no friend of mine

Woo-hoo-hoo
