Any time ago when I was tollin' on the rocks, add a little touch of attitude
Who's that Madam X coming in at three o'clock
Why don't you send her over one too

Next thing I remember, I was crawlin' round the room
She was dancing on the table, blood sure, barkin' at the moon

Colorado bulldog, this night has gone to my head
Colorado bulldog, throw a leash around my neck
Turn around and run like hell

Gimme a grumpy grumbler

Swingin' from the rafters, I'm losing all control
Playin' a little game of cat and mouse
Above the question, I've been lonely much too long
Last call, "The drinks are on the house"

Next thing I remember, through the pandemonium
It was feeling like a nightmare, the bite right into my skin

Colorado bulldog, this night has gone to my head
Colorado bulldog, throw a leash around my neck
Turn around and run like hell

Come here boy!

My sweet Lolita, or prayin' Manita, left me in the number six motel
How was I to know, she'd strip me to the bone and steal away my heart as well

Next thing I remember, through the pandemonium
It was feeling like a nightmare, the bite right into my skin

Colorado bulldog, this night has gone to my head
Colorado bulldog, throw a leash around my neck
Turn around and run like hell

Colorado bulldog - this night has gone to my head
Colorado bulldog - throw a leash around my neck
Bottom's up down the heck, it's time to start all over again

"Close your little eyes, Yankee!"

. . .


I could take what I want, but I take what I need
How can I help myself if I need everything
I get possession, the half of the truth
I change my direction and the bill comes due, yeah
When I turn around, the men are standin' at the door

It's the price, the price you gotta pay, it's comin' down today
After a time it seems so easy, like any game you play
There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay

I got here with nothing, I'll leave with a lot
Come on and take a chance now baby, gimme what you've got, yeah
A piece of the action, a slice of the pie
I hope you won't remember when it's time to classify
I turn around to look at you, you're lookin' back my way

It's the price, the price you gotta pay, it's comin' down today
After a time it seems so easy, like any game you play
There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay
Hit me!

Ow! Yeah yeah, now this is how it all adds up

Ooh, rent is due and so are you, I'm here to repossess your soul
Hey baby! You're deep into the hole

It's the price, the price you gotta pay, it's comin' down today
It started off so easy, like a little game
There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay - ow!

Yeah, the price you gotta pay

After a time it seems so easy, like any game you play
There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay - ow!

. . .


Hey, yeah, yeah
You don't know what you've got
Till the love is almost gone
This time, yeah, she's given up
Still in a state of shock
I should've seen it coming on
It's too late for waking up
Her mind's made up
I know the dream is over
But my heart just can't let go

She's too good to be forgotten
Too good to be true
Before my world is torn apart
I'll promise her the moon
I'll promise her the moon

I was too blind to notice her
Wrapped up in myself
Workin' hard overtime, night and day
I thought we were so secure
Can' imagine someone else
Could come between us
And take her away
Her mind's made up
I know the dream is over
But my heart just can't let go

She's too good to be forgotten
Too good to be true
Before my world is torn apart
I'll promise her the moon
I'll promise her the moon

And all the time she stood by me
I never said "I love you"
Yeah, I kept it deep down in my soul
And all the while I've been a fool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

. . .


What's it gonna be, baby?
Shivers down my spine
Swim on to your island
Is your treasure mine?
Send me out an answer
Tell me something real

What's it gonna be, baby?
What's it gonna be?
Why 's it have to be so hard to win your sympathy?
What's it gonna be, baby?
What's it gonna be?
You're takin' your time makin' up your mind
You should be makin' time with me, yeah

How's it gonna feel, baby?
Your back's against the wall
Close your eyes and feel your body starts to fall..
Gimme little answer woh...

What's it gonna be, baby?
What's it gonna be?
What's it gonna take to see the posibilities?
What's it gonna be, baby?
What's it gonna be?
You're takin' your time makin' up your mind
You should be makin' time with me, yeah

Send me out an answer
Tell me how you feel
Move a little closer
Gimme something real
Put you in my pocket
Keep you for a day
Let the good doctor take you away

What's it gonna be, baby?
What's it gonna be?
Why 's it have to be so hard to win your sympathy?
What's it gonna be, baby?
What's it gonna be?
You're takin' your time makin' up your mind
You should be makin' time with me, yeah

. . .


Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you wanna start something new
And it's breaking my heart you're leavin'
Baby, I'm grieving

But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then, a lot of nice things turn bad out there

Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child, girl

You know, I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breakin' my heart in two
'Cause I never want to see you sad girl
Don't be a bad girl

But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
Just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child, girl

Baby I love you

But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
Just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child, girl

Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oooh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child, girl

. . .


You feel a tap upon your shoulder
Turn around, there's no one there
Is your mind just getting older?
Are you whispering a prayer?

When you feel you're someone else,
In the cloud all by yourself

Love, choice, and destiny
Knocked on your door
You were gone
Sold your world to keep it free
Are you lonely tonight, Mister Gone?

Twist your heart up over nothing
Your will is working double time
Intuition has misled you
She's polite but so unkind

When you feel you're someone else,
In the cloud all by yourself

Love, choice, and destiny
Knocked on your door
You were gone
Sold your world to keep it free
Are you lonely tonight, Mister Gone?

Where's your love
Where's your life?
Get your head out of the sand
Free your mind
Free your soul
An open heart will understand, yeah

Yeah
Come on,
Everything is cool
Hoo, hoo
Oh, yeah we need love
Ah, yeah we gotta make a change
Alright

Love, choice, and destiny
Knocked on your door
You were gone
Sold your world to keep it free
Are you lonely tonight, Mister Gone?
Lose your personality
When all of your rights turn to wrong
Blinded by the things you see
Are you lonely tonight Mister Gone?

. . .


Your secret is safe
I'll keep it on the inside
Cover you play
Makin' up a white lie
I can't complain
She's finally off of my back
I shoulda known better
She came in from the wrong side of the tracks

I'll keep my mouth shut
Nothin' else I can do
At the rate that you're going
Baby, Pretty soon the whole world is gonna know
What you've done to me
The whole world is gonna know
All about it baby

I used to be
As foolish as the last guy
I made up my mind
There'll never be a next time, No
Now that you're done
With all your take affection
So many like me
You know they're getting wise to your deception

I'll keep my mouth shut
Nothin' else I can do
At the rate that you're going
Baby, Pretty soon the whole world is gonna know
(The whole world is gonna know)
What you've done to me
(The whole world gonna know)
The whole world gonna know
All about it baby
Nothing I can do

I'll keep my mouth shut
Nothin' else I can do
At the rate that you're going

(The whole world is gonna know)
(The whole world is gonna know)
What you've done to me
The whole world is gonna know
All about it, baby
(The whole world is gonna know)
(The whole world is gonna know)
What you've done to me
The whole world is gonna know
All about it, baby

. . .


Guess what, baby, the things we said
Came true today cause we listened to our hearts
No one but you will ever do
Our search is through but our journey's just beginning

Nothing but love can last forever
Nothing but love will start
To mend the place inside your heart that needed healing
Nothing but love can live forever
Nothing but love will start
To make your head spin round and round
You know you're feeling love
Nothing but love
Nothing but love

Can't read you mind, Lord knows I've tried
But in your eyes, I see everything I need to know
Nothing to do, but follow through
My aim is true, I could never ask for any more

And if you walk away
You know that I will follow
To steal back your broken heart
At least until tomorrow
Because whatever comes in days
Beside you i can't hide that you're the one

Nothing but love can last forever
Nothing but love will start
To mend the place inside your heart that needed healing
Nothing but love can live forever
Nothing but love will start
To make your head spin round and round
You know you're feeling
Nothing but love can hold our world together
Nothing but love can start
To let us hear the sounds above that have been screaming love
Nothing but love, Nothing but love
Love, Nothing but love, Nothing but love
Oooh, hooo, oooh, oooh

. . .


She's sinkin' like a dashboard doll, cool, cruel and calculated
Beauty in the back seat, she runs hot, mean too cold
She's wicked with a mean streak, a timebomb tickin' away
Here comes trouble, right on the double, with a split personality

Heaven knows there's hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude, don't shoot, it's only me babe!

Watch what you might say and how you say it, she's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on a good little girl like that
She's oh so twisted (she's so) temperamental
Just a little bit temperamental

One minute she's an innocent child, sweet taste of her emotion
Anxious with a strange twist, man it's all worthwhile
Mad look, comin' on strong, ready to meet it halfway home
Heartbreaker, time to meet the maker, 'cause the mice have all gone

Heaven knows there's hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude, don't shoot, it's only me babe!

Watch what you might say and how you say it, she's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on a good little girl like that
She's oh so twisted (she's so) temperamental
Just a little bit whacked

Heaven knows there's hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude, don't shoot!
Don't shoot, it's only me baby!

Watch what you might say and how you say it, she's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on a good little girl like that
She's oh so twisted (she's so) temperamental

You better watch what you might say and how you say it, she's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on a good little girl like that
She's oh so twisted (she's so) temperamental
Just a little bit temperamental
Just a little bit whacked

(Half a wasted life willing to sleep a bite)
Girls like this you just gotta treat right
They just cut you back down to size - ain't that right, kid
Hey, hey, yeah yeah, she's so temperamental...

. . .


I've been miles from nowhere crossed and doubled back
Time is a healer and i've done my time
'Cause i ain't seen love like that

I've seen the light of freedom 'til they fade to black
So many faces but no one compares
No i ain't seen love like that

And I've got
People tellin' me to let her go
Don't let it turn you around
Tomorrow's comin' and you'll never know
The one that you lost may be found

I believe in justice
I wonder where she's at
It feels like a lifetime and it just ain't fair
No i ain't seen love like that

And I've got
People tellin' me to let her go
That girl is bringing you down
Tomorrow's comin' and you'll never know
The love that you lost may be found

Whooh

You know there's
People tellin' me to let her go
Don't let it turn you around
Tomorrow's comin' and you'll never know
The love that you lost may be found

I've been miles from nowhere
Crossed and doubled back
Time is a healer And I've done my time
No, I ain't seen love like that
No, I ain't seen love like that
So many faces, (ain't seen love like that)
No one compares
I ain't seen love like that (ain't seen love like that)
Ain't seen love (ain't seen love like that)
No I ain't

. . .


("People constantly ask us where we got the name Mr. Big. Here's our version
of the classic "Free" tune that started it all.")

I work hard every day, come rain or shine
Don't need nobody to tell me 'bout that girl of mine
She's got so much love, she saves it all for me
And I would not be lyin', that's the way it's got to be

So Mr. Big, uh, better watch out, don't you hang around me now
'Cos all for you I would dig a great big hole in the ground
Alright, yeah yeah

Now listen - I don't care who you are, so don't explain
Better get on outta here and don't you come back again, now now
I don't want a thing from you, don't wanna give me nothing too
So get on outta here before I lose my cool

So Mr. Big, better watch out, don't you hang around me now
All for you I would dig a great big hole in the ground

Yeah yeah, whoa-oh, oh yeah, but you know I really mean to, yeah

(Solo)

Ohh, Mr. Big!
