Clock strikes ten it's a Saturday night Got money in my pocket and it feels alright Not stayin' home gonna stay out late Gotta hear some rockin' music and it feels just great Clock strikes twelve on a Saturday night All the creeps are sleepin' all the cools in sight All the kings and queens, they're out tonight Lookin' for some action 'til I feel alright

Some of these days, and it won't be long Gonna drive back down where you once belonged In the back of a dream car twenty foot long Don't cry, my sweet, don't break my heart Doing all right, but you gotta get smart Wish upon, wish upon, day upon day, I believe, oh Lord I believe all the way Come get up, my baby Run for the shadows, run for the shadows Run for the shadows in these golden years

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine Quiet thoughts come floating down And settle softly to the ground Like golden autumn leaves around my feet I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories Sweet memories

Well we made a promise we swore we'd always remember No retreat, baby, no surrender Like soldiers in the winter's night with a vow to defend No retreat, baby, no surrender

Well I'm a-running down the road trying to loosen my load I've got seven women on my mind Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me One says she's a friend of mine Take it easy, take it easy Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy Lighten up while you still can Don't even try to understand Just find a place to make your stand and take it easy

The sex police are out there on the streets Make sure the pass laws are not broken The race militia has got itchy fingers All the way from New York back to Africa Cuddle up baby Keep it all out of sight Cuddle up baby Sleep with all out of sight Cuddle up baby Keep it all out of sight Undercover Undercover Undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover of the night

What goes up must come down Spinning wheel got to go 'round Talkin' 'bout your troubles It's a cryin' sin Ride a painted pony Let the Spinning Wheel spin

I saw her sitting in the rain Raindrops falling on her She didn't seem to care She sat there and smiled at me Then I knew (I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew) She could make me happy (happy, happy) (She could make me very happy) Flowers in her hair (in her hair) Flowers everywhere (everywhere)

Like needles and pins People say, "You've been making out okay He's in love, don't stand in his way" Well let me tell you that it hurts so bad It makes me feel so sad It's gonna hurt so bad if you walk away

Out here in the fields I farm for my meals I get my back into my living I don't need to fight To prove I'm right I don't need to be forgiven Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Don't cry Don't raise your eye It's only teenage wasteland

Every night I hope and pray A dream lover will come my way A girl to hold in my arms And know the magic of her charms 'Cause I want (yeah-yeah, yeah) A girl (yeah-yeah, yeah) To call (yeah-yeah, yeah) My own (yeah-yeah) I want a dream lover So I don't have to dream alone

Slow down, you move too fast You got to make the morning last Just kicking down the cobblestones Looking for fun and feeling groovy Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy

In the early morning rain With a dollar in my hand With an achin' in my heart And my pockets full of sand I'm a long way from home And I miss my loved ones so In the early morning rain With no place to go

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen Warm my mind near your gentle stove Turn me out and I'll wander, baby Stumblin' in the neon groves

Every day, she takes a morning bath, she wets her hair Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair It's just another day Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat It's just another day

'Cause like a picture she was laying there Moonlight dancing off her hair She woke up and took me by the hand She's gonna love me in my Chevy van And that's all right with me

Don't cry, daddy Daddy, please don't cry Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy And together we'll find a brand new mommy Daddy, daddy, please laugh again Daddy, ride us on your back again Oh, daddy, please, don't cry

Listen to the wind blow, watch the sun rise Running in the shadows, damn your love, damn your lies And if you don't love me now You will never love me again I can still hear you saying You would never break the chain (never break the chain)

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head Butt hat doesn't mean My eyes will soon be turnin' red Crying's not for me 'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain By complainin' Because I'm free Nothing's worryin' me

I need you like the flower needs the rain You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again You know I need you like the winter needs the spring You know I need you, I need you

Strangers waiting Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights, people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlights, people

Don't care how long you go I don't care how long you stay It's good kind treatment Bring you home someday Someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble Poor me, anymore

And if you should survive to a hundred and five Look at all you'll derive out of being alive And here is the best part, you have a head start If you are among the very young at heart

Johnny Angel, how I love him He's got something that I can't resist But he doesn't even know that I-I-I exist Johnny Angel, how I want him How I tingle when he passes by Every time he says "Hello" my heart begins to fly

No milk today, it wasn't always so The company was gay, we'd turn night into day As music played the faster did we dance We felt it both at once, the start of our romance
