GOT TO GET BACK HOME
Eyes of blue
Yes it’s true you look good
Really tempting to me
And you know
What you show does appeal
To the bad boy in me
But I have to go
Don’t you know I must say no
Please listen to me
And go away please
There was a day
When I would say “well okay
Let’s give it a whirl”
Those days are gone
From now on I have someone
Who rocks my whole world
So I have to say
I’ll be moving on my way
Just listen to me
And go away please
On my way to the connections that bind me
Going back where I belong
To the place where the good loving will find me
Got To Get Back Home
So you see
What I need is not here
‘Cuz she’s waiting for me
And when I’m there
You can’t tear me away
From what makes me complete
So just go away
Save it for another day
I said from the start
You can’t have my heart
On my way to the connections that bind me
Going back where I belong
To the place where the good loving will find me
Got To Get Back Home
She’s my one and only from the start
She’s the only one who holds my heart
From the start
She’s my one and only from the start
She’s the only one who holds my heart
Holds my heart
I’ve got to go
‘Cuz you know you and me
Were not destined to be
I’ll say goodbye
As I fly from here
And go to where I wanna be
‘Cuz I’m on my way
You knew that I would never stay
I said from the start
She’s holding my heart
On my way to the connections that bind me
Going back where I belong
To the place where the good loving will find me
Got To Get Back Home
On my way to the connections that bind me
Going back where I belong
To the place where the good loving will find me
Got To Get Back Home
On my way to the connections that bind me
Going back where I belong
To the place where the good loving will find me
Got To Get Back Home

COMMON GROUND
What are we to do?
When we ponder what divides us
Can we ever find our way?
It’s just not me and you
The differences are all around us
Walk a mile in that man’s shoes
Common Ground
Is found
Bridge the divide
Common Ground
Must be found
If we are to survive
Maggie lives next door
Her barking dog is at my fence
It’s enough to drive me mad
She don’t really care
‘Cuz she lives within her own silence
Since her man’s no longer there
Common Ground
Is found
Bridge the divide
Common Ground
Must be found
If we are to survive
Can’t live alone
Must live with others
Feel their concerns
Make them your brother
Can’t live alone
Must live with others
Feel concerned
Make them your brother
Earth is getting small
We cannot hide from each other
If our weapons can reach us all
It’s just suicide
To be barking at each other
With the view of just one side
Common Ground
Is found
Bridge the divide
Common Ground
Must be found
If we are to survive
Common Ground
Is found
Bridge the divide
Common Ground
Must be found
If we are to survive
Common Ground
Is found
If we just try
Common Ground
Will be found
If we just give it a try

Future The Past

FUTURE THE PAST
Don’t mess with the future
Don’t make the Future The Past
Don’t ever stop trying
Because your dreams where once dashed
Get up and start moving
Don’t make the Future The Past
The time is a wasting
Because the future won’t last
Each of us does have a story to tell
And we want our story to end well
Defeat or glory
What’s your story?
How will it all end?
We control how our own story’s told
So don’t Future The Past
Go for glory
Don’t Future The Past
Write your story
Listen to me
Don’t Future The Past
Keep it moving
However the future unfolds
That’s what’s told
Get up and keep trying
Don’t make the Future The Past
Keep moving it forward
Because the time goes by fast
Keep writing your story
Don’t make the Future The Past
There’s plenty of options
Because the future’s so vast
The horizon’s filled with hope and promise
Clean and empty like the virgin snow
So leave the past there
In the past where
It wanders alone
Don’t be dragging
All that baggage
Please …
Don’t Future The Past
Move it forward
Leaving the old past behind
Moving on
Moving on

Brazilian Holiday

BRAZILIAN HOLIDAY
Gotta get away
Someplace where the air’s not old
And the sky’s not grey
I need a holiday
Get me off the street
Can’t take anymore I’m beat
And I’m on my way
Brazilian Holiday
Walk along the beach
The girls are so sweet
On Brazilian Holiday
Music all night
The samba’s so right
On Brazilian Holiday
Fill my lungs with sea air
Erase all my stress and cares
I’m on lay-a-way
Brazilian Holiday
Most people I meet
Don’t care if my thoughts aren’t deep
I just go my way
Brazilian Holiday
All along the beach
The girls there I meet
On Brazilian Holiday
We samba all night
The music’s so right
On Brazilian Holiday
I’m the man with the libation in hand
Contemplating surf and sand
Under the sun there’s so much – much to be done
Working hard on my tan
On vacation – no pay
Down South America way
In my hide-a-way
Brazilian Holiday
Do send me a card
To find me it won’t be hard
‘Cuz I’m here to stay
Brazilian Holiday
I’ll be on the beach
‘Cuz the girls are so sweet
On Brazilian Holiday
I’ll be samba all night
‘Cuz the music’s so bright
On Brazilian Holiday
Ho ho ho holiday
Ho ho ho holiday
Ho ho ho holiday

JODY SWEET JODY
Jody Sweet Jody
You are a daisy in the spring
The most precious little thing
And you are mine
Jody Sweet Jody
You’re dawn’s first gleaming ray
You are the sunshine in my day
And you are mine
You mean the world to me ‘cuz
Such happiness you bring
I want the world to see so
This song for you I sing
And don’t you know
I feel love for you baby
And I don’t mean maybe
All I do - all I say is for you
I feel love for you baby
And I don’t mean maybe
All I do - all I say is for you
But I sing for two loves - yeah
There is one other
The love I give to you - yeah
You must share the another
And that’s your mother
Yes - your mother
Oh how I love her
And you’re both mine

LAUGHING BLUE
When I think of the moments we shared together
It seemed the time would last forever
Where have we gone and what have we done?
Whatever happened to us?
Remember all the times that we’d laugh together?
Sharing a dream when the time would be better
What have we done and where have we gone?
Can we still laugh there too?
Laughing Blue
Laughing Blue
Where have we gone and what have we done?
Are really things the same?
Nothing ever mattered when we were together
When the burdens of life were as light as a feather
Now where can we go and what can we do?
Are we still laughing too?

Live Today

LIVE TODAY
With the sun in your eyes
You look to the West
With a wandering heart
Make your quest
With the knowledge of your mind
Venture to seek
Find your soul
It’s yours to keep
But when you run
Don’t be runnin’ away
Don’t be afraid
Live Today
So let the eagle fly
Through the highest of skies
Soar with the wind
You’re in control
And find what you can
The time is at hand
The choice is yours
Which way to go
But when you run
Don’t be runnin’ away
Don’t be afraid
Live Today
Hey little girl
What ya doin’ tonight?
Hey little girl
Are they all treatin’ ya right?
Don’t you know I miss ya?
Even though you’re gone
I’m singin’ your song
Now there’s one thing that’s for certain
That the words mean more than they did before
Can you hear me?
Hey little girl
What ya doin’ tonight?
Hey little girl
Are they all treatin’ ya right?
You’ve gone somewhere beyond me
Seein’ thing – hearin’ things
But when I need you – you find me
And I love you more than I did before
Can you hear me?
Hey little girl
What ya doin’ tonight?

THE BRIGHTNESS OF OUR DAY
The sun is high
I’m feeling low
There’s a place I’d like to go
It’s called home
I’m so alone
My feelings inside you just don’t know
The sky is blue
I’m feeling gray
There’s not much more that I can say
Except I miss you
I really do
And The Brightness Of Our Day
Darkness is near
You are not
But love like yours is not forgot
I feel so bad
So sad
‘Cuz I am here and you are not
I feel so bad
So sad
‘Cuz I am here and you are not

The Strong Will Survive

THE STRONG WILL SURVIVE
Life’s the big game we play
And we must each find a way
To raise our score
If we don’t play we cannot win our survival
Strengthen our game each day
And there’s no one else to blame
If we forfeiture
Everyone knows only The Strong Will Survive
If we play long enough
We increase the chance for luck
To come our way
Success doesn’t happen by ability alone - no
Get your ducks in a row
And when Lady Luck does finally show
Be ready to go
And never forget only The Strong Will Survive
We’ll never know when
The good luck will strike
Some things we – we just can’t control
Like a bolt of lightening
It may strike or it may not
When it does it can be frightening
Tough - toughen up the stuff you’ve got
All that we can do
Is strengthen our fortitude
And work the plan
And when the good lightning comes a knocking at our door
Always just do your best
Don’t worry about the rest
Some things aren’t controlled
And always remember that The Strong Will Survive
We’ll never know when
The good luck will strike
Some things we – we just can’t control
Like a bolt of lightening
It may strike or it may not
When it does it can be frightening
Tough - toughen up the stuff you’ve got
Bring it on home to you
I swear that these words are true
It’ll happen someday
Nothing can stop me from the game I love to play
Busting loose from my cage
Refusing to act my age
I cannot deny
Some may even find it frightening
I plan to get hit by the lightening
And may I remind you that The Strong Will Survive
