All That Keeps Me Goin' Composer(s): Bill Anderson Performer(s): Bill Anderson
All that keeps me goin' Is knowin' that you love me and you're mine All that keeps me goin' Is knowin' you're gonna see me through troubled times
This morning when I woke up that ole sun didn't wanna shine So I just laid back and let your mem'ry fell down across my mind And suddenly it was yesterday and I was lying in your arms And somehow just the thought of you turned my world on and made me warm
All that keeps me goin'... All that keeps me goin'...
I was talkin' to Chuck in his Genghis Khan suit and his wizard's hat He spoke of his movie and how he was makin' a new sound track
And then we spoke of kids on the coast and different types of organic soap And the way suicides don't leave notes Then we spoke of Lorraine always back to Lorraine
I was speakin' to Phil who was given to pills and small racing cars He had given them up since his last crack-up had carried him too far
Then we spoke of the movies and verse and the way an actress held her purse And the way life at times can get worse Then we spoke of Lorraine always back to Lorraine
Ah, she's a wild child and nobody can get at her She's a wild child oh, and nobody can get to her
Sleepin' out on the street Oh, livin' all alone without a house or a home and then she asked you, please hey, baby, can I have some spare change Oh, can I break your heart?
She's a wild child, she's a wild child
I was talkin' to Betty about her auditions how they made her ill But life is the theater, is certainly fraught with many spills and chills
But she'd come down after some wine which is what happens most of the time Then we sat and both spoke in rhymes Till we spoke of Lorraine ah, always back to Lorraine
I was talking to Ed who'd been reported dead by mutual friends He thought it was funny that I had no money to spend on him
So we both shared a piece of sweet cheese and sang of our lives and our dreams And how things can come apart at the seams And we talk of Lorraine always back to Lorraine
She's a wild child oh, and nobody can get at her She's a wild child oh, and nobody can get to her
Sleepin' out on the street Oh, livin' all alone without a house or a home and then she asked you, please, oh, baby, can I have some spare change Now can I break your heart?"
Wild Bill Jones (Traditional) Performer(s): The Stanley Brothers; and various other artists
As I went down for to take a little walk I came upon that Wild Bill Jones He was a walkin and a talkin by my true lovers side And I bid him to leave her alone
He said my age is twenty-one Too old to be controlled I pulled my revolver from my side And I destroyed that poor boys soul
He reeled and he staggered, and he fell to the ground And then he gave one dying moan He wrapped his arms around my little girls neck Saying honey wont you take me home
So put them handcuffs on me boys And lead me to that freight car gate I have no friends or relations there No-one for to go my bail
So pass around that old long necked bottle And well all go on a spree For today was the last of that Wild Bill Jones And tomorrow will be the last of me
They sent me to prison for twenty long years This poor boy longs to be free But Wild Bill Jones and that long-necked bottle Have been the ruin of me
All That I Need Composer(s): Blind Melon Performer(s): Blind Melon
All that I need is the air that I breathe And all that I need are things I don't need And all that really matters is what matters to me And who of you are like me
If I was to smile and I held out my hand If I opened it now would you not understand Because you know if I'm to benefit I'll do everything that I can And who of you are like me
It will make you feel good, over my shoulder It'll get me down and got me tied up 'Till I grow older, but feel me inside of you Like you want it to
But is it just the pains in your head That are thrilling me Another life's falling down onto it's knees But I'll never smile the way, that I did like that day
Everything will be Okay Everything will be Okay It'll be Okay

Wig-Wam Bam Composer(s): Mike Chapman; Nicky Chinn Performer(s): The Sweet
Hiawatha didn't bother too much 'Bout Minnie Ha-Ha and her tender touch Till she took him to the silver stream Then she whispered words like he had never heard That made him all shudder inside when she said Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand Try a little touch, try a little too much Just try a little wig-wam bam
Running Bear never cared enough About Little White Dove and her tender love Till she took him to the silver stream She told him all about what he couldn't live without And made him all weak inside when she said

All Stood Still Composer(s): Warren Cann - Chris Cross - Billy Currie - Midge Ure Performer(s): Ultravox
The lights went out (the last fuse blew) The clocks all stopped (it can't be true) The program's wrong (what can we do?) The printout's blocked (it relied on you)
The turbine cracked up The buildings froze up The system choked up What can we do?
Please remember to mention me In tapes you leave behind
We stood still We all stood still Still stood still We're standing still
The screen shut down (there's no reply) The lifts all fall (a siren cries) And the radar fades (a pilot sighs) As the countdowns stall (the readout lies)
The turbine cracked up The buildings froze up The system choked up What can we do?
Please remember to mention me In tapes you leave behind
We stood still We all stood still Still stood still We're standing still
The black box failed (the codes got crossed) And the jails decayed (the keys got lost) Everyone kissed (we breath exhaust) In the new arcade (of the holocaust)
The turbine cracked up The buildings froze up The system choked up What can we do?
Please remember to mention me In tapes you might leave behind
We stood still We all stood still Still stood still We're standing still
We stood still We all stood still Still stood still We're standing still

All Sold Out Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards Performer(s): The Rolling Stones
Why put this sadness inside of me Why be so matter-of-fact Why put this one bit of hope in me You sold me out and that's that
I hope that you're having fun with me There's not much left to attack I hope that you're nearly done with me You sold me out and that's that
All sold out i'd never seen A mind so tangled, a girl so strangled All sold out well i felt so green It was just like that I was put down flat I was sold out just like that Oh baby
All sold out i'd never seen A mind so tangled, a girl so strangled All sold out well i felt so green It was just like that I was put down flat I was sold out just like that
I missed the point of you doing it Your mind has just jumped the track I took a bit different view of it You sold me out and that's that
North soul boy flunked music college Northwest boy instrument was compulsory Wigan soul boy is up on rare disk knowledge Married soul man is a reformed character Shadow of the man It must have been the grammes Known as a mouse now And always asks the time Still a soul boy and hates the Midnight Runners To this boy Wigan Oration is kid's stuff He's not a rough boy, but buanned from every pub Was a piss-up freak till he lost his nerve You can't give all to soul and never get it back Catch the bus boy And run to your wife And run to your wife

A-well-a bless my soul What's wrong with me? I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug I'm in love...ugh I'm all shook up Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!
My hands are shaky and my knees are weak I can't seem to stand on my own two feet Who do you thank when you have such luck? I'm in love...ugh I'm all shook up Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!
Please don't ask me what's on my mind I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine When I'm near the girl that I love best My heart beats so it scares me to death!
When she touched my hand what a chill I got Her lips are like a volcano when it's hot I'm proud to say she's my buttercup I'm in love...ugh I'm all shook up Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!
My tongue gets tied when I try to speak My insides shake like a leaf on a tree There's only one cure for this body of mine That's to have the girl that I love so fine!
When she touched my hand what a chill I got Her lips are like a volcano when it's hot I'm proud to say she's my buttercup I'm in love...ugh I'm all shook up Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah! I'm all shook up
