Up every mornin' before the sun
Takin' my lovin' on the run
Breakin' my back till the day is done
I'm gonna punch that time clock and have some fun
There's no easy way to get myself out

So I keep on workin'
Like a workin' man do
I need to buy my baby shoes
I keep on workin'
Oh, it's the only thing to do
I make my livin' by the sweat of my brow
Oh, workin' just like you, uhh

I was raised on the poor side of town
I made my livin' movin' around
I never let no one dog me down
I was taught to stand my ground
Life was always changin'
That's just the way it is

So I keep on workin'
Like a workin' man do
I need to buy my baby shoes
I keep on workin'
Oh, it's the only thing to do
I make my livin' by the sweat of my brow
Oh, workin' just like you, uhh
Oh, I keep on workin'

Ooh, I keep on workin'
Like a workin' man do
I need to buy my baby shoes
I keep on workin'
Oh, it's the only thing to do
I make my livin' by the sweat of my brow

Oh, I keep on workin'
Like a workin' man do
I need to buy my baby shoes
I keep on workin'
Well, it's the only thing to do
I make my livin' by the sweat of my brow
Oh, workin' just like you

Ahh ah, ahh ah
I keep on workin', I keep on workin'
I keep on workin', I keep on workin'
I keep on workin', oh, I keep on workin'
Workin' just like you, oh, just like you

. . .


On a foggy road just before sunrise
Don't you lose control, you could lose your life
You keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes straight ahead
Don't forget what the good book says
You think it can never happen to you
But it happens all the time

On a full moon night, something ain't right
Didn't see it 'til about midnight
When it happened it seemed kind of weird
Things like this seem to appear
From the shadows of a full moon night

Never had a clock that goes at night
That was the way of the simple life
Right down the road come a big surprise
Man shot his wife than took his own life
You think, it can never happen to you
But it happens all the time

On a full moon, something ain't right
Started out as an innocent fight
Never should have happened, not around here
Things like this seem to appear
From the shadows of a full moon night

On a full moon, something ain't right
Didn't see it 'til about midnight
But when it happened it seemed kind of weird
Things like this seem to appear
From the shadows

On a full moon, something ain't right
Started out as an innocent fight
Never should have happened, not around here
Things like this seem to appear
From the shadows of a full moon night

. . .


You know I'm dirty because it's in me
Life's not easy
And it's the heart that I won't change
I wouldn't be the same

You see me one day and then the next day
I don't wanna play
I'm not the same dog you have known
It's not written in stone

Oh, am I right or wrong?
Lookin' out for number one
I never stay too long
I'm there and then I'm gone

I'm not the preacher man oh, can you understand?
It's a game of win or lose
I've got an evil eye you know sometimes I might lie
Oh, I'm not the preacher man, yeah, yeah

Saint was a sinner, ain't he a winner?
And did you hear him say
"I didn't lie, I just misled"?
It's all in the head

Oh, ain't it funny, how little money
Cheap talkin' honey
Can turn a sunny day to gray
And we all got to pay

Oh, am I right or wrong?
Lookin' out for number one
I never stay too long
I'm there and then I'm gone

I'm not the preacher man, oh can you understand?
It's a game of win or lose
I've got an evil eye, you know sometimes I might lie
Oh, I'm not the preacher man

Yeah

I'm not the preacher man, oh can you understand?
It's a game of win or lose
I've got an evil eye, you know sometimes I might lie
Oh, I'm not the preacher man

I'm not the preacher man
I'm not the preacher man
I've got an evil eye, you know sometimes I might lie
Oh, I'm not the preacher man

I'm not the preacher man
I'm not the preacher man
I'm not the preacher man

. . .


Raised up with two kinds of people
The good ones and the bad
I was taught from early on
The only choice I had

Now I see, it's clear to me
What was in the plan
Had to walk the walk and talk the talk
And try to be a man

I swear the wind took me away
But now I'm here again today, yeah

I'm back on the mean streets
Oh, it's the only thing I know
Never change me, it was born in my soul
And it don't take much to make me mad
Push me a little and I bring back
I've a mean streak, oh
Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets

Somebody stole my money
I heard a brother say
Used to we'd fight it out
That was yesterday

Just because you're packin' son
Don't make you a man
If you shoot to kill, what's the thrill
Why don't you understand

Each time I walk outside my door
We need a change and that's for sure

I'm back on the mean streets
Oh, it's the only thing I know
Never change me, it was born in my soul
And it don't take much to make me mad
Push me a little and I bring back
I've a mean streak, oh
Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets

Do you ever think about where you're goin'?
Have you ever thought about where you've been?
Will you ever pass this way again?
There's a fear and you know it
But inside, you can't show it
No where for you to run and hide

I'm back on the mean streets
Yes, it's the only thing I know
Never change me, it was born in my soul
And it don't take much to make me mad
Push me a little and I bring back
I've a mean streak
Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets

Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets, baby
I'm back on the mean streets
I'm back on the mean streets
On the mean streets
Don't take much to take me back

. . .


I'm just a city boy
But there's a small town side to me
And I feel it closin' in

Are we too blind to see
That she's die-in' more each day
And she's cryin' out to you and me

Chance is comin' when thier gone
They curse a fool who waits too long
So lets take care of what we have
Before the good we know goes bad
And the beauty fades and just slips away

The dirty air and the die-in' seas
Will this be the world we leave
To the wild and young
And say just look at what we've done

And right before our eyes
Today's yesterday, could be tomorrow's goodbye

Here comes the rain. it might wash her tears away
But it doesn't change a thing
Like my brother before me
All I can do is write this song and for her I sing

Chance is comin' when we're gone
They carve in stone what we've done wrong
So lets take care of what we have
Before the good we know goes bad
And the beauty fades and just slips away

The dirty air and the die-in' seas
Will this be the world we leave
To the wild and young
And say just look at what we've done

And right before our eyes
Today's yesterday could be tomorrow's goodbye

Do you ever think about the future or the past
Do you ever wonder how long this world will last.....

So let's take care of what we have
Before the good we know goes bad
And the beauty fades and just slips away

The dirty air and the die-in' seas
Will this be the world we leave
To the wild and young
And say just look at what we've done

And right before our eyes
Now it's right before our eyes
Today's yesterdaaay.......... will be tomorrow's goooodbye

. . .


I hear rumors flyin' about a head on crash
At the stroke of midnight when centuries clash
Some gonna party, some gonna kneel and pray
Well, you can quote the Bible, bribe the devil
But there's gonna be some hell to pay

We were young and innocent
Thought this day would never come
And tomorrow seemed a million miles away
Now let's look each other in the eyes
And realize it could be time
To set aside our anger and know we're all the same

Take my hand, we're gonna cross the line
To a brand new day on the end of time
We're gonna rise as one or fall together
Out here on the ledge
We're standing on the edge of forever, ooh

From the silence I hear the thunder roll
Words of the prophets echo in my soul
What's salvation in this world to me
I know in my heart if we love each other
We can face what's meant to be

We-we-we were young and innocent
Thought this day would never come
And tomorrow seemed a million miles away
Now there's power in the wrong hands
A madman in a foreign land
If we don't get our senses it's all gonna slip away

Take my hand, we're gonna cross the line
To a brand new day on the end of time
We're gonna rise as one and fall together
Out here on the ledge
Standing on the edge of forever

Take my hand, we're gonna cross the line
To a brand new day on the end of time
We're gonna rise as one and fall together
Out here on the ledge
Standing on the edge
Out here on the ledge
Dancin' on the edge of forever

Ooh, of forever
Ohh, of forever
You and I of forever, ohh
Yeah, forever baby

. . .


Yeah, ooh, ooh, the only time I get up early
Is to met my mules at the fishin' hole
I wanna catch the one that got away
I wanna feel my pole bending in that way

Since I was a kid, I felt this way
I fell hook, line and sinker gone fishin', yeah

St. John's River runs north not south
Smart enough to have a large mouth
If you can hook 'em, you can mount 'em
You can keep 'em around
But if they break your line, they're gonna go back down

Since I was a kid, I felt this way
I fell hook, line and sinker gone fishin'

Oh, ain't nothing like sunrise on the lake
Or when the moon comes up at night
Oh, there's things out there that can take your life
You might just die of fright

But I'll be there come rain or shine
See it's what I like to do
Only thing better than settin' the hook
Is settin' my hook in you

Oh, I fell hook, line and sinker gone fishin'
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, whoa, yeah

I've been everywhere, tried everything
But there ain't nothin' that feels the same
When you find the right one, it's a magical thing
Next thing you know, it's a diamond ring

Well, she hooked me and took my name
I fell hook line and sinker gone fishin', yeah
Gone, gone fishin', she hooked me
Gone, gone fishin', yeah, yeah
Gone, gone, gone fishin', yeah

She's my baby, gone, gone, gone fishin'
Yeah, yeah, oh, oh, gone fishin'

. . .


Dig down and tell me what you find
Back in the pages left behind
Everybody's got a story

Ours ain't no different from the rest
Each step we take, it's just a test
On this broken road to glory

When we were young and brave
We fought to save the one thing that we loved
We took a sacred vow
And signed our names in blood

And through it all, we kept on shining
We fought the doubt and faced the pain
We built it up from dust and ashes
To cheat the odds and rise again

There's been a million miles of road
Another million miles to go
Still giving me a reason

Most times your first could be your last
God give me one more second chance
Oh, something to believe in

And though it's easier to give it up
Than to give it all you got
Don't let it make you something
That you're not

And through it all, we kept on shining
We fought the doubt and faced the pain
We built it up from dust and ashes
To cheat the odds and rise again

And through it all the wheels keep turning
Above the tears the truth stands tall
Now here we are one in spirit
We stand together through it all
Oh, through it all

When we were young and brave
We fought to save the one thing that we loved
We took a sacred vow
And signed our names in blood

And through it all, we kept on shining
We fought the doubt and faced the pain
We built it up from dust and ashes
To cheat the odds and rise again

And through it all the wheels keep turning
Above the tears the truth stands tall
Now here we are one in spirit
We stand together through it all
Oh, through it all, through it all
Oh, through it all

. . .


Ooh
One, two

She's on the left, I'm on the right
Oh, here comes trouble
And I ain't even seen her yet
Oh, she's something I'll regret

She's got it good, I got it bad
Can't seem to get her walk
And her talk outta my head
Oh, you know I'm just a mess

Give it up, give it up
Give it to me
Can't you see, honey
I'm down on my knees?

Wanna feel your touch
I need you so much
Don't you know I come with
A money back guarantee?
Oh, you ain't gonna get my money

I'll buy the house, you drive my car
I'll take you anywhere
But baby, if that's not enough
Oh, you can call my bluff

I will shower you with
Diamonds and rings
I'll feel a little angel baby
Can't you see?

Wanna feel your touch
I need you so much
Don't you know I come with
A money back guarantee?
Oh, you can have it all baby
Oh, here it comes

Here it comes
[Incomprehensible]

Oh, give it up, give it up
Give it to me
Can't you see, honey
I'm down on my knees?

Wanna feel your touch
I need you so much
Don't you know I come with
A money back guarantee?
Yeah, oh

Money back, money back guarantee
Money back, money back guarantee
Money back, money back guarantee
Money back, money back guarantee

Yeah, yeah, oh, the girl I see
Oh, you can have it all, baby
Say baby, money back guarantee
Oh oh, you can keep your money back guarantee
Oh yeah

. . .


That's right, come on

Long tall Sally's looking good to me
Shaking that thing for everybody to see
Oh, everybody's thinking just like me
Wonder who the lucky fool's gonna be

Get it while the gettin's good, baby
Take it 'cause the others would
Ain't no hesitating, they just might be waiting
Get it while the gettin's good

Look at that dude in the parking lot
Taken it for granted, everything he's got
So if he hands you a dollar say, "Thank you, sir"
'Cause I've been up and down and I know what it's worth

Get it while the gettin's good, baby
Take it, 'cause the others would
Ain't no hesitating, they just might be waiting
Get it while the gettin's good

You know I gotta have it, ain't no doubt about it
Get it while the gettin's good

You can say you don't want it
But deep inside you know, you really do
You know what I'm talking about

Well, everybody's thinking just like me
Wonder who the lucky fool's gonna

Get it while the gettin's good, baby
Take it, 'cause the others would
Ain't no hesitating, they just might be waiting
Get it while the gettin's good

Get it while the gettin's good
Take it, 'cause the others would
Ain't no hesitating, they just might be waiting
Get it while the gettin's good

You gotta get it while the gettin's good
You gotta get it while the gettin's good, baby
You gotta get it while the gettin's good
Oh, you better get it while the gettin's good, baby

. . .


I knew a man a long, long time
But I never knew him at all
Small in stature, big at heart
Oh, he always stood tall

From the time that he was born
He had a style all his own
In my mind he could do no wrong
Misunderstood all along

He worked hard all his life
To get what he has today
We would all be better off
If we could hear those words
That he had to say

He was a little rough around the edges
And through it all we all knew
He was a little rough around the edges
Simple in mind but always had a kind eye for you
Oh, for you, for you

He took me by the hand
And said, "Son, what's your plan?
I won't stop you or stand in your way
Someday you'll be a man"

I look at him with hungry eyes
That only youth can know
With all his wisdom and all his years
He said, "I'll teach you all that you need to know"

He was a little rough around the edges
And through it all we all knew
He was a little rough around the edges
Simple in mind but he always had a kind eye for you

Don't stop, now, keep moving
Don't worry about where you are going
I'll hear you, you'll feel me
I'm there no matter where you go

He was a little rough around the edges
And through it all we all knew
He was a little rough around the edges
Simple in mind

He was a little rough around the edges
He was a little rough around the edges
Simple in mind, oh, oh, simple in mind, oh oh

. . .


That's right

Well, the dogs are barkin' and I'm out rockin'
Nobody home to throw them a bone
I was thinkin' just the other day
Yeah, on my way back to U.S.A.

Oh, junk mail and bills in a letter box
Out on the line are my dirty socks
Had to jump the fence and break my lock
Yeah

Oh my God, I'm back in FLA
I got so much to do but I'm only here for a day
Wish I could pay for it while I'm in it
Seems like I'm there only for a minute
Me and the bank own a house down in FLA
Yeah

What in the world am I gonna do
Clock on the wall says a quarter to two
Well, the boys are on the bus and they're waitin' on me
I got soap in my eyes and I can't see

Telephone's ringin', baby's on the line
Tired of being here doin' my time
Gotta hit the road runnin', gotta get goodnight
Yeah

Oh my God, I'm back in FLA
I got so much to do but I'm only here for a day
Wish I could pay for it while I'm in it
Seems like I'm there only for a minute
Me and the bank own a house down in FLA

That's right
Well, let's do

Oh, wish I could pay for it while I'm in it
Seems like I'm there only for a minute
Me and the bank own a house
Yeah, me and the bank own a house
Oh, a run down shack in FLA

Yeah, that's right

FLA, FLA, FLA
Yeah
