Seems like now days ain’t nothin’ meant
to last
one day you’ve got it all and then it
disappears so fast,
and you know our love is on and off again
Well I know you wanna quit me, baby,
but a quitter never wins
Well, you’ve walked out on our
lovin’,
but I’ve stayed through thick and thin,
and you know our love is on and off again
I know you want to quit me,
but a quitter never wins
Seems like now days love is a word that no one
means
Ya said you’d never leave me,
then ya upped and walked right out on me,
and now our love is on and off again
Well, I know you wanna quit me,
but a quitter never wins
Well, I know you wanna quit me baby
But a quitter never wins,
a quitter never wins

Here I come, I'm coming for a taste of your
love
Here I come, baby, because I like what you do for
me
Little by little, bit by bit,
I'm falling in love all over again
Here I come, I'm coming for a taste of your
love
Here I come now, baby, just like I did before
And I'm coming back, 'cause this time I'm sure
It takes two, to make it,
and I know you can take it, again
Here I come, I'm back for a taste of your Love
Here I come, I'm coming back for you now
What you've been, just come down on me
You've got the lock, pretty baby, but I've got the
key
Little by little, bit by bit,
I'm falling in Love all over again
Here I come, I'm coming for a taste of your
love
Here I come now baby, I'm back for a taste of your
love
You know, I'm coming back for a taste of your
love
You know, I've got to come back now baby

I seen every one of the faces you wear,
low, high and everything in between
Your eyes are fixed on the prize like a dead man's
stare
Tick. tock, the hands on the clock don't care
Buzz is good
Feelin' fine
One of these days,
you'll be out of time
God ain't gonna look for you,
down in the lost and found
You better look up or you're gonna be gone,
before you hit the ground
You'll keep dippin' in till the well run dry,
hope you don't get thirsty later
I know talking to you's just a waste of my
time,
I'm gonna stop tellin' you how to live your
life
One more, time to score so make it fast,
when you lose your mind you got no mind left to
lose
Three, four open the door to your last chance,
and when you get where you're goin' you won't be
comin' back
You better look up or you're gonna be gone,
before you hit the ground

Every day I see your face I wish I'd stayed
Don't even know what made me run away
It's just the way I play the game
Emotional is not a word I'd use to explain
myself,
but now I'm down upon my knees
Baby please take me back
I don't want to be in love but you're makin' me
Let me up I've had enough, girl you're breakin'
me
Here I am just half a man standing alone,
feeling like I lost my only chance,
at happiness when I let you go
I don't want to be alone thinkin' bout you
girl,
I got nothin' left to hold in this lonely world
The first time my heart was ever touched,
was the day I lost your love
I can feel it in my flesh and blood,
my soul can only take it so much
So there it is, why can't you give us one more
try
You and I could find a way to live,
if you let me in one more time
I know you lost your faith in me but I still
believe
Can I make you understand, can I make you see,
that I'm desperate for your love and it's breakin'
me
It's breakin' me

I got a friend at the bar,
his name is Ray
And I really don't know,
what he's trying to say
His skin is black,
mine is white
To me there's no difference,
wrong or right
Told me he leave,
the girl at the curb
Told me never to speak an unkind word
My brother's got rhythm,
I got the blues but
Babe we love to live the life that we choose
But now I know what they was trying to say
I gotta change my life,
change my ways
Now I know what they were trying to say
I gotta change my life,
change my ways
Now when the night comes babe,
you know I'll be found
I'll be playing the blues on every stage in
town
And there's a song to be played,
and there's a song to be sung
'Cause there's a little lovin' boy,
in everyone

Watching you baby, watching you all the time
Watching you, watching you all the time
Watching you destroy yourself, all you do is sit
around drinking wine
You worry me baby
I'm sitting here wondering, wondering what in the
world can I do
You're worrying me, you're worrying me baby
Sitting here wondering, what in the world can I
do
We've got so much to live for baby
But I can't do nothing but sit here, and watch that
wine destroy you
That's wrong baby
I'm taking you to the doctor darling
Maybe the doctor knows, what's going on in your
head
Maybe the doctor can help me baby
Maybe he knows, what's going on in your head
You see you're gonna keep on drinking that bad wine
baby
Even the glass that grows on your grave will be
cherry red

Look at the man with the smile on his face
Looks like he’s always feelin’ good
Sometimes you might want to take his place,
and sometimes I think that you would
When the sun is goin’ down,
and there is no place to hide
Even in the brightest light,
you might lean toward the darker side
Look at the people, they learn how to lie so
easy
They learn how to lie to get what they need,
and after they got what they needed
It turns into a simple case of greed
When they no longer feel ashamed,
and they’ve lost all sense of pride
Misery loves company,
and it’s lonely on the darker side
And when the party is over,
and the music has died
You’ll be dancin’ to the music, baby,
somewhere on the darker side
Somewhere on the darker side

"E" train
Take the "E" train
Take the "E" train
Baby take the "E" train,
take the easy train to Austin
Honey you been ridin' that train so long,
Lord knows when you'll come home

A good morning little schoolgirl,
can I go home with you?
Tell your mama and your daddy,
that I'm a little schoolboy too
Baby I love you,
I just can't help help myself
You're so good looking pretty babe,
I don't need nobody else.
Good morning little schoolgirl,
can I go home with you?
Uh, Uh, Uh
I'm gonna leave you baby,
about the break of day
On account of the way you treat me,
I've got to stay away
A good morning little schoolgirl,
can I go home with you?
Tell your mama and your daddy,
that I'm a little schoolboy too
Come on pretty baby,
oh you know I can't help myself
Uh, Uh, Uh
I'm gonna buy me an aeroplane,
to fly all over your town.
And tell everybody baby,
Lord knows you've been putting me down.
I can't stand it babe,
just cannot help myself
You're so young and pretty,
but you're lovin' somebody else
A good morning little schoolgirl,
can I go home with you?
Uh, uh, uh
Oh babe what you do to me,
I can't help myself

The biggest fool there ever was
I let you go,
and now I can't survive without your touch
I need you so
But baby all you've got to do,
is tell me that you need me too
I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running back to you
Oh well I'd rather die a thousand deaths,
than to lose your love
But now I'm drowning in my loneliness
I can rise above, yeah again
Well just forgive me this one last time,
and tell me baby you're still mine
I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running baby, yeah
I hit the ground running back to you
Oh I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running
I hit the ground running back to you
Ah, you know I'm coming,
I'm coming back for you by now baby
So if you don't want me baby,
lock your doors cause here I come
