Take It On The Run
Take It On The Run
Composer(s): Gary Richrath
First release by: REO Speedwagon - 1980
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around
They say you got a boy friend
You're up there every weekend
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down
But I know the nieghborhood
And talk is cheap when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But I'm telling you, babe
That I don't think it's true, babe
And even if it is keep this in mind
You take it on the run baby
If that's the way you want it baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun so you take it on the run
You're thinking up your white lies
You're putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you're coming home but you won't say when
But I can feel it coming
If you leave tonight keep running
And you need never look back again
You take it on the run baby
If that's the way you want it baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun so you take it on the run
You take it on the run baby
If that's the way you want it baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun so you take it on the run
You take it on the run baby
If that's the way you want it baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun so you take it on the run
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around

Mother Nature And Father Time
Mother Nature And Father Time
Composer(s): Kay Twomey; Fred Wise; Ben Wiseman
Performer(s): Nat King Cole; Dickie Valentine
I'm a son of mother nature
A son of father time
I've got a lot of neighbours the million stars that shine
And there all friends of mine
Every robin is my brother
They sing their songs to me
The tiny black-eyed daisies
The mighty red wood tree
There all my family
Then why do I feel so lonely
Like a king on an empty throne
There's one thing that's missing only
A true love to call my own
Won't you listen mother nature
And listen father time
Please help me to find someone
To fill these arms of mine
Mother nature and father time
Then why do I feel so lonely
Like a king on an empty throne
There's one thing that's missing only
A true love to call my own
Won't you listen mother nature
And listen father time
Please help me to find someone
To fill these arms of mine
Mother nature and father time
Mother nature and father time

Girls Were Made To Love And Kiss
Girls Were Made To Love And Kiss
Composer(s): Franz Lehár; Victor Herbert
Performer(s): Richard Tauber;
and various other artists
Girls were made to love and kiss
And who am I to interfere with this?
Is it well? Who can tell?
But I know the good Lord made it so
Am I ashamed to follow nature’s way?
Shall I be blamed if God has made me gay?
Does it pay? Who can say?
I’m a man and kiss her when I can
Yet I have suffered in love’s great deeps
I know the passion that never sleeps
I know the longing and wronging of hearts
The hope that flatters and shatters and smarts
I suffer still but I sleep at nights
Man cannot always be on the heights
And when our aching and breaking is done
Flirting is jolly, it’s folly, but fun
Girls were made to love and kiss
And who am I to interfere with this?
Does it pay? Who can say?
I’m a man and kiss her when I can

Take It Like A Man
Take It Like A Man
Composer(s): Blair Thornton - C.F. Turner
Performer(s): Bachman-Turner Overdrive; BTO Spider
Only three stops
To make in Alabama
Everyone
A one-night stand
Working for a man
Down South Louisiana
Cause ZZ ain't
His only band
Business has been
Good or bad
But sittin here
Will drive me mad
And I'm gonna get back
Where they want me
Get back
Where they want me
Get back
Where they want me
Make a stand
I'm gonna
Take it like a man
Met a stray woman
I think it was in Texas
She was made
For those who'd pay
Got a little drunk
And raised a mild ruckus
The city said
I could not stay
I guess I'm gonna
Have to change
Until this mess is
Rearranged
And I'm gonna get back
Where they want me
Get back
Where they want me
Get back
Where they want me
Make a stand
I'm gonna
Take it like a man
I guess I'm gonna
Have to change
Until my life is
Rearranged
And I'm gonna get back
Where they want me
Get back
Where they want me
Get back
Where they want me
Make a stand
I'm gonna
Take it like a man

Mother Dear, O Pray For Me
Mother Dear, O Pray For Me
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Perry Como
and various other artists
Mother dear, O pray for me!
Whilst far from heav'n and thee
I wander in a fragile bark
O'er life's tempestuous sea
O Virgin Mother, from thy throne
So bright in bliss above
Protect thy child and cheer my path
With thy sweet smile of love
Mother dear, O pray for me!
Should pleasure's siren lay
E'er tempt thy child to wander far
From Virtue's path away
When thorns beset life's devious way
And darkling waters flow
Then Mary aid thy weeping child
Thyself a mother show
Chorus
Mother dear, remember me!
And never cease thy care
'Till in heaven eternally
Thy love and bliss I share

Girls Talk
Girls Talk
Composer(s): Elvis Costello
Performer(s): Dave Edmunds;
and various other artists
There are some things you can't cover up
With lipstick and powder
Thought I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?
Don't come any closer
Don't come any nearer
My vision of you
Can't come any clearer
Oh I just wanna hear girls talk
Got a loaded imagination
Bein' fired by girls talk
It's a more or less situation
Inspired by girls talk
But I can't say
The words you wanna hear
I suppose you're gonna have to
Play it by ear, right here
And now, girls talk
And they wanna know how girls talk
And they say it's not allowed, girls talk
If they say that it's so
Don't they think that I'd know by now?
Got the word up on everyone's lipstick
That you're getting faded
You may not be an old-fashioned girl
But you're gonna get dated
"Was it really murder?"
"Were you just pretending?"
"Lately I've heard..."
"You are the living end"
Girls talk
And they wanna know how girls talk
And they say it's not allowed, girls talk
And they think they know how girls talk
If they say that it's so
Don't they think that I'd now by now?
But I can't say
The words you wanna hear
I suppose you're gonna have to
Play it by ear, I hear
There are some things you can't cover up
With lipstick and powder
But I heard you mention my name
Can't you talk any louder?
Don't come any closer
Don't come any nearer
My vision of you
Can't come any clearer

Covered by multiple other artists
Well, I'm a runnin' down the road, tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind
four that wanna own me, two that wanna 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
Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
and such a fine sight to see
it's a girl, my Lord, in a flat bed Ford
slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win though we will never be here again
So open up, I'm climbin' in, so take it easy
Well, I'm a runnin' down the road, tryin' to loosen my load
got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover
she's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
Oh, we got it easy
we oughta take it easy

Mother Dear (The Supremes)
Mother Dear
Composer(s): Brian Holland; Lamont Dozier; Edward Holland Jr.
Performer(s): The Supremes
Something's on my mind
Mother dear the boy keeps me crying
Don't know which way to turn
Keeps me so confused
Keeps me so confused
Mother dear
'Cause for him I yearn
But he treats your daughter bad
Keeps your daughter sad
I wish I didn't love him so
'Cause now I can't let him go
His kiss gets a little sweeter
Ooh, my heart gets a little weaker
I'm falling deeper
Deeper in love each day
I know he's no good for me
But I'm too weak to break away
Ooh, each day love gets a little stronger
Ooh, heartaches lasts a little longer
Help, help me mother dear
'Cause I can't help myself
Ooh, he treats your daughter bad
Keeps your daughter sad
So many times I've tried
Telling him we're through
But when he takes me in his arms
There's nothing I can do
Ooh, it's no use
I can't break loose
I keep love him more and more each passing day
All my love to him I give it
Without him around
I couldn't live
I need him so
And he knows it
Can't let him go
And I show it
Help, help me mother dear
I'm so in love with him
But he treats your daughter bad
Keeps your daughter sad
Help, help me mother dear
Help, help me mother dear
He keeps your daughter crying

Sleepy head, kid sister
Lying on the floor
18 years and younger, boy
Well she knows what she's waiting for
Yuki's a cool school mistress
She's an Oriental princess
She shows the films in the classroom, boy
They put the paper on the windows
Ahhh.....what can the sisters do
Ahhh.....girls' school
Head nurse is Sister Scala
Now she's a Spanish doll
She runs a full body outcall massage parlor
From the teacher's hall
Ahhh.....what can the sisters do
Ahhh.....girls' school
Well now, Roxanne's the woman trainer
She puts the kids to bed
She gives them pills in a paper cup
And she knocks them on the head
Ahhh.....what can the sisters do
Ahhh.....girls' school
She shows them films in the classroom, boy
When they put the paper on the windows
Ahhh.....what can the sisters do
Ahhh.....girls' school

Take It Back (Reba McEntire)
Take It Back
Composer(s): Kristy Jackson
Performer(s): Reba McEntire; Kristy Jackson; Mark Thornton
You talked me into moving in and giving you my key
You said you'd be a mess now if it hadn't been for me
You said I stole your heart away by looking in your eyes
I wonder now how many times you sold that pack of lies
If this is how you act when you give your heart away
Well, take it back
Take it back
You told me I was everything you wanted and more
Then tell me what you're doing now sneaking out the back door
You're bringing home flowers and a bottle of Chablis
You forgot I don't drink wine I know that bottle's not for me
If this is how you act when you give your heart away
Well, take it back
Take it back
Oh, you must think I'm blind
And I don't smell your new cologne
You don't think I notice
All the nights I spend alone
Well, I'm not one for sitting 'round in some ole pity pool
You think you got a ticket and I must be some kind of fool
I hate to steal your thunder but your playing days are through
At least they are with me cause babe, I got no use for you
Tonight laying on the street
Babe, your bag is packed
So, take it back

Mother Dear (Styx)
Mother Dear
Composer(s): John Curulewski; De Young
Performer(s): Styx
Lonely feelings in the city
One room flat with crumbling walls
Sirens play a distant melody
Neon shadows paint the halls
In the thirteen months I've spent here
With my manuscript and rhymes
I've paid in cash for foolish pleasures
Mother dear you'd call them crimes
Raise the roof
Light the lite
Mother dear I'm returning tonight
Now I see
Your concern
Mother dear how you taught me to learn
I been a Roman for survival
Showing two sides of my face
I need the comfort of your wisdom
I'm coming home to your embrace
If by chance I pass before you
Don't discount my gratitude
You're responsible for me here
And of course my attitude
Raise the roof
Light the lite
Mother dear I'm returning tonight
Now I see
Your concern
Mother dear how you taught me to learn
Stayin' up half the night
Wonderin' if what I'm doin' is right
Raise the roof
Light the lite
Mother dear I'm returning tonight

Girls On Film
Girls On Film
Composer(s): Christian Lebon; Nick Rhodes; John Taylor
Performer(s): Duran Duran;
and various other artists
See them walking hand in hand
across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out it's so bright
Then walk right out to the fourline track
There's a camera rolling on her back, on her back
And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine
Girls on film, girls on film, girls on film, girls on film
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling
dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again
Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film
Girls on film (got your picture), girls on film
Wider baby smiling you just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night I'm touching close I'm holding
bright, holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I'm shooting a star
Girls on film (she's more than a lady), girls on film
Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film
Girls on film (see you together), girls on film
Girls on film (see you later), girls on film
Girls on film (what ya doing), girls on film

Take it back, take it back, take that thing right out of here

Covered by various other artists
No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day

I've been around the world
I've seen a million girls

What my lady she's got
She's stealin' the spotlight
Knocks me off my feet
She's about to start a landslide
Just a-walkin' down the street
Wearin' dresses so tight
And lookin' dynamite
About to blow me out
No doubt about it
Can't live without it

She really satisfies me
Love me till I'm legless
Aching and sore
Enough to stop a freight train
Or start the Third World War
You know I'm losin' sleep
I'm in too deep
And my body needs love
No doubt about it
Can't live without it
(repeat chorus)
(solo)
You know she moves like sin
And when she lets me in
It's like liquid love
No doubt about it
Can't live without it
(repeat chorus, then this variation:)
You know she's really got the rhythm (Girl's got rhythm)
She's got the backseat rhythm (Backseat rhythm)
Rock n' roll rhythm (Rock n' roll rhythm)
