Альбом Bachman-Turner Overdrive

Every day is an endless train
You got to ride it to the end of the line
Be a troubleshooter, blow the bad luck away
And you will make it to your station on time

And you'll find out every trick in the book
And that's there's only one way to get things done
You'll find out the only way to the top
Is looking out for number one
I mean you keep looking out for number one

Every night is a different game
We gotta work for our fortune and fame
Success is a ladder, take a step at a time
And the people will remember your name

Yes, I found out all the tricks of the trade
And that's there's only one way you're gonna get things done
I found out the only way to the top
Is looking out for number one
And that's me, I'm looking out for number one

Every day is an endless train
But I ride it to the end of the line
I'm a real troubleshooter and I blow it away
No one's gonna get what's mine

I found out every trick in the book
And that's there's only one way to get things done
I found out the only way to the top
Is looking out for number one
I mean you, keep looking out for number one
That's us, keep looking out for number one
That's me, I'm looking out for number one

We rented a truck and a semi to go
Travel down the long and the winding road
Look on the map, I think we've been there before
Close up the doors, let's roll once more

Cop's on the corner, look he's starting to write
Well, I don't need no ticket so I screamed out of sight
Drove so fast that my eyes can't see
Look in the mirror, is he still following me?

Let it roll down the highway
Let it roll down the highway
Roll, roll

Look at the sign, we're in the wrong place
Move out boys and let's get ready to race
Four fifty-four's coming over the hill
The man on patrol is gonna give us a bill

The time's real short, you know the distance is long
I'd like to have a jet but it's not in the song
Climb back in the cab, cross your fingers for luck
We gotta keep moving if we're going to make a buck

Let it roll down the highway
Let it roll down the highway
Roll

Let it roll
Let it roll
Let it roll
Let it roll

Let it roll down the highway
Let it roll down the highway
Roll, roll, roll

Down the highway
Let it roll down the highway
Roll, roll, roll

Let it roll down the highway
Let it roll down the highway
Roll, roll, roll

Hey you, you say you wanna change the world
It's alright, with me there's no regret
It's my turn, the circle game has brought me here
And I won't let down 'til every song is set

You realize now
You should have tried now, ooh
The music's gone now
You lost it somehow
Hey you, sha la la la
Hey you, sha la la la
Woo! Sha la la
Woo! Sha la la

Hey you, you say the race is much too fast
It's okay, with me I'm keeping pace
It's my game, the music is inside my head
For every one on top there's one who can't retrace

You realize now
You should have tried now, ooh ooh
The music's gone now, you'll find out
You lost it somehow
Hey you, sha la la la
Hey you, sha la la la
Woo! Sha la la
Woo! Sha la la

You realize now, ooh
You could have tried now
The music's gone now
You lost it somehow
Hey you, hey you, sha la la la
Hey you, sha la la la
Woo! Sha la la
Woo! Sha la la

Sha la la la, hey you, hey you, hey you (Woo!)
Sha la la la, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, it's true (Woo!)
Sha la la la, no time, no time left, no time (Woo!)
Sha la la la, don't let me down, don't let me down (Woo!)
Sha la la la, you gotta learn to take it easy, baby (Woo!)
Sha la la la, music's over, it's over (Woo!)
Sha la la la, too late, too late, too late (Woo!)
Sha la la la, I should have realised it a lot sooner than this (Woo!)
Sha la la la, hey you

Drivin' in a beat up car
The highway is long but we've come so far
Two thousand miles from home
We got to find someplace that we can belong

But, we know, the freeways in life are all pointing us home
Don't you know, nothing in this life could mean anymore
Freeways, freeways

Headin' out into the sun
We've been to the stars, and we've only begun
Nothin's gonna change our mind
There's songs to be sung, but we've left them behind

They get up every morning
From the alarm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushing, people shoving
And the girls who try to look pretty

And if your train's on time
You can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day

And I've been takin' care of business, every day
Takin' care of business, every way
I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine
Takin' care of business and working overtime, work out

If it were easy as fishin'
You could be a musician
If you could make sounds loud or mellow
Get a second-hand guitar
Chances are you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows

People see you having fun
Just a-lying in the sun
Tell them that you like it this way
It's the work that we avoid
And we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day

And we've been takin' care of business, every day
Takin' care of business, every way
We've been takin' care of business, it's all mine
Takin' care of business and working overtime

Woo, all right, oww!

Take good care of my business
When I'm away, every day, woo

They get up every morning
From the alarm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushing, people shoving
And the girls who try to look pretty

And if your train's on time
You can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day

And I've been taking care of business, every day
Takin' care of business, every way
I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine
Takin' care of business and working overtime

Takin' care of business, woo
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business, yeah
Takin' care of business

Takin' care of business, every day
Takin' care of business, every way
Takin' care of business, it's all mine
Takin' care of business, and working overtime, woo

Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
We've been takin' care of business
We've been takin' care of business, woo

Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business

When the mornin' comes
You'll know by my shoes I've been out walking

If I don't return
You'll know I've found something to believe in, to believe in

Waiting for the sun
My heart will surely break if it starts raining

It's the oasis I seek
'Cause the sand of the desert makes me thirsty, makes me thirsty

Down, down we all go down
'Round, 'round we all go 'round
Down, down we all go down
We all go down-down-down-down

If I learn to fly
You know I'll go places never been before

If I reach a star
You know I will dwell on it forever, forever

There are mysteries
My children have rhymes with hidden meanings

If I learn the truth
I'm sure that the end will leave me crying, leave me crying

I met a devil woman
She took my heart away
She said I had it coming to me
But I wanted it that way

I think that any lovin's good lovin'
So I took what I could get, mmm ooh ooh
She looked at me with big brown eyes
And said

You ain't seen nothing yet
B-b-b-baby you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothin' yet
Here's somethin' that you're never gonna forget
B-b-b-baby you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothing yet
(And you're thinkin' you ain't been around, that's right)

And now I'm feeling better
'Cause I found out for sure
She took me to her doctor
And he told me of a cure

He said that any love is good love
So I took what I could get, yes I took what I could get
And then she looked at me with her big brown eyes
And said

You ain't seen nothing yet
B-b-b-baby you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothin' yet
Here's somethin', here's somethin' you're never gonna forget, baby
You know, you know, you know you just ain't seen nothin' yet
(You need an education, got to go to school)

Any lovin's good lovin'
So I took what I could get, yes I took what I could get
And then, and then, and then she looked at me with her big brown eyes and said

You ain't seen nothin' yet
Baby you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothin' yet
Here's somethin', here's somethin', here's a lover you'll never forget baby
Baby baby baby you ain't seen n-n-n-n-nothin' yet

You ain't been around
You ain't seen nothin' yet, that's what she told me
She said I need an education, go to school
I know I ain't seen nothin' yet
I know I ain't seen nothin' yet, ooh, ooh, ooh
I got something for you when I get home
Better be good
I been everywhere
But I ain't seen nothin' yet
I deserve it one of these days, oh yeah
Ooh, but I ain't seen nothin' yet
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I ain't seen nothin' yet
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
If you want to show me what I ain't seen
Where I ain't been
La la la la la la la la la la

Goodbye, I lied
Don't cry, would you let it ride
Goodbye, I lied
Don't cry, would you let it ride

You can't see the mornin', but I can see the light
(Try, try, try to let it ride)
While you've been out runnin', I've been waitin' half the night
(Try, try, try to let it ride)

And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride

Seems my life is not complete, I've never see you smile
(Try, try, try to let it ride)
Baby, you want the forgivin' kind and that's just not my style
(Try, try, try to let it ride)

And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride

I've been doin' things worthwhile, you've been bookin' time
(Try, try, try to let it ride)

And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye, would you let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye, would you let it ride

Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride (yeah, yeah)
Would you let it ride

Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride
Try, try, try to let it ride

Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride

Pardon my life, pardon my song
I hope you're not nervous, I'm not going to stay long
The one installment, I've made on your heart
Is not enough to cover what we're willin' to start
Cause I'm a flat broke love
Lord I'm a flat broke love

I'm up or I'm down, never constant or sound
Empty my pockets full of grain
The friends that I've loved, never feel I've been there
I've never left a grateful one
Cause I'm a flat broke love
Well I'm a flat broke love
Yeah I'm a flat broke love
Baby I'm a flat broke love

Cause I'm a flat broke love
Yeah I'm a flat broke love
Well I'm a flat broke love
Lord I'm a flat broke love

I'll state you this claim, you've all played the game
You've all upset somebody's cart
I think you forgot, love needs more than one heart
Without it, it can't hold a true flame

Cause it's a flat broke love
It's a flat broke love
Yeah it's a flat broke love
Hey it's a flat broke love
Well it's a flat broke love
Lord it's flat broke love
Flat broke love
Baby it's a flat broke love
It's a flat broke love
Flat broke love
Baby she's a flat broke love
Oh a flat broke love

You are what you are
I am what I am
Can we all come together
With some kind of plan
I want you to laugh
But you want me to cry
Can we all come together
Hey, why don't we try

Can we all come together
Can we reach across the sea
There are worlds in between us
The sky is all we see
So let's all come together
Let's all come together

Why do we like different things
And we live different ways
Can we come together
For happier days
I want you to smile
But you let me down
Can we come together
Let's do it right now

I see you live for the sun
I live for the rain
Can we come together
Can we be the same
I want to settle down
But you want to run
Can we come together
Can we be like one

I tried, you've got to realize
The way I'm torn apart inside
They're calling me now
I've changed, there's something rearranged
Sounds so sweet, I can't explain
Calling me now

Rockin' all day and rollin' all night
Smile for the ladies, make it nice
I may go crazy but I'll be alright
It's those rock and roll nights
Rock and roll nights, rock and roll nights

Life's so long and get's so tough
For you play the game but it ain't enough
Really don't give a damn if you survive
Lot of love or lot of luck
Don't you shine on me, I've had enough
Only rock and roll can keep this boy alive

Chorus

Chorus

Rock and roll nights
Feelin' alright
Rock and roll nights
Feelin' alright
Oh oh oh
Rock and roll nights
Feelin' alright
Rock and roll nights
Rock and roll nights
Rock and roll nights

When will these dark clouds disappear from view
When will the sun begin to shine
When will I once again be near to you
When will I know for sure you're mine

Dreaming of those Jamaican nights
Longing to hold you
Jamaica take me away
Take me away with you
Jamaica, I'm wasting away
Take me away with you
Jamaica take me away
Take me away with you
Jamaica, I'm wasting away
Take me away with you

When will these dark days disappear again
When will I finally see the light
How long must I wait
To have you here my friend
I want to be with you tonight

Dreaming of those Jamaican nights
Longing to hold you
(Repeat rest of the chorus til end)
