1. Breaking All the House Rules
I’ve been running from a dark horse, I can’t lose it
I’ve been calling to an old force, don’t excuse it
Now I’m in the back and I’m all right
Got a mean kinda woman she’s outta sight
Well I don’t mind now sit me with the old fool
Out the back door, break the house rules
I go looking for my ego, don’t explain it
Don’t want never never leave girl, just sustain it
Well I’ve got a home and it’s all right
With a mean kinda woman she’s outta sight
Well I don’t know about ripping up the old school
No no more breaking all the house rules
I got things I wanna do girl,don`t refuse me
I don’t wanna be a bad boy, you don’t rule me
Well you knowing me well that’s all right
When a guy’s gotta live and he’s outta sight
I just wanna leave everything paid for
Feeling good that it's our thing girl
It’s obscene
Well here we go,
I got things I wanna do girl,don`t refuse me
I don’t wanna be a bad boy, you don’t just rule me
Well I’m neat neat well that’s alright
With a kind kinda woman she’s outta sight
I just wanna beat everything you throw me
You don’t think that that’s obscene?
Yes it is.
2. Slip Away
In the morning light of day
Leaves are falling
Slip away
Slip away with you
And the reason, men are told
Is the feeling
Of never growing old
Growing old with you
In the daytime feel like it’s almost gone
And the evening gently lingers on
And the feeling warms my glow
Faking time
Taking time, we know
In the morning light of day
Leaves are falling
Slip away
Slip away with you
Gently slip away
Gently slip away
Gently slip away
3. Who Do You Want For Your Love?
Oh well, I ain`t got nothing,
I got nothing to say to the right one
I don’t need nothing,
I got nothing to feel for the bright one
I ain`t loving you dear, running away with no one
Who do you want for your love?
I got nothing taking my time, I’m a wild one, one
And if I’d ever tried another to stay, I’ll lie like a son
Yeah I don’t know when who can play
At the same way
Who do you want for...?
I ain`t messin`, burn your hand
Don’t you ever turn your back on a friend
Slowly come girl, to my bed
Underrated, underfed, dead!
I’ve been getting bad vibes living in the smoke
Try and tell you good friend but it sounds a joke
Giving up the good things changing all my ways
Meat is going bad girl, now I will be saved
Yeah, I wish I could be strong
Living with the good wins, that I wear them long
Ooh now hear me calling out your name
Has a lesson there's a game
Don’t you fool it, do it friend
Keep your cool girl or you're dead
4. I Can't See My Feelings
I can’t see my feelings open my eyes
I can’t see my feelings open my pair of eyes
I can’t see my feelings keeping me high
I just keep on reeling bought me back tell me why
I just stand there screaming,don`t even try
Music bans all feeling
If it’ll tell me why
I can’t stop that feeling showing me why
Man I love that feeling yeah
Floats me right through the sky
5. I Ain't No Mountain
Now it wasn't easy when you didn't mean much
And buried your feet and you lost your luck
You cheated someone then you strayed too far
Now you're on your own and you drive your car
I ain't no mountain for you to climb up
Ain't nobody that you can be
So don't make my bed for me to lie on
While I’m playing my outlaw rag
Oh, you've seen some action, you know it's bad
All it seemed to tell you was
What you all never had
Don’t think so loudly as you drive your car
Or you'll blow your mind and I’ll know who you are
I ain't no mountain for you to climb up
Ain’t nobody that you can be
So don't make my bed for me to lie on
While I’m playing my outlaw rag
6. Napoleon Bona - Part One
7. Napoleon Bona - Part Two
There’s a light, covers up my doorway
Flickering light, never run away
And I might, I might be going your way
Say who might, might help me on my way
Mmm, what a sight, sight to burn the ego
Keep you warm and never let go
And the light coming my way,
Compared to what others have seen
Napoleon the strong he once had it
As a sound that was loud in his dream
And I stand, locked before the four ways
Wind and snow, heaven and I
I belong wherever men like that stay
I can feel it burning in my eyes
And the light coming my way
Compared to what others have seen
Napoleon the strong he once had it
As a sound that was loud in his dream
Heavens child, it’s driving me wild,
Honey I know that it’s right
Well, I got this message that makes me feel good
Carries me out through the night
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me!
Well, I move through life like a hurricane lamp
Lighting the road as I go
Spreading this music, injecting the light
Please let it stay, never go
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me!
And I think of napoleon and others before
Parallels seem to exist
I follow it, follow it, keep it in sight
Napoleon would never have missed
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me!
