Well her name was Rosie and I knew right from the start
She took a hold on my drawstring boy, now forget about my heart
Now I´ve been around a while and I´ve seen my share of tail
But she sure launched my boat son an´ filled out them sails
Hey baby won´t you stay awhile oh yeah
The devil´s daughter
Got fire in her eyes
She strung me along
And to then to my surprise
She said now, hey sugar won´t you come inside
And I said, honey honey I´ll take you for a ride
The blues never stops
It goes to your head
The blues never stops
It gets you in your bed
It keeps comin´
Guitars keep strummin´
And the blues never stops
Until your dead
Hah!
She yanked my heart out
Ain´t no use in cryin´
She carved it up, and served it out
Hell no I ain´t lyin´
She sent me home
Now I´m all alone
Come on now darlin´
Why don´t you throw this dog a bone
I swung my bat once and you called me out, oh yeah
Throw those curve balls
To another guy
Just leave me be baby
Along with my pride
I tried my luck once on the losing side
Honey honey you took me for a ride
The blues never stops
It goes to your head
The blues never stops
It gets you in your bed
It keeps comin´
Guitars keep strummin´
And the blues never stops
Until your dead
Hah!

Ready For a Ride (Benes/Gore)
Roaring down the highway
Gotta let it loose
Creepin´ up your doorway
Yeah I´m tightenin´ up the noose
(Let me tell you baby)
I´m gonna take it to the limit one more time
Are you ready for a ride
Well I´m ready for a ride
When you see me comin´ round again
I´m ready for a ride
Huggin´ all the curves now
Hit the straightaway
Racin´ past the pit stops
´Cause I never need no break
(Now listen up darlin´)
Don´t come a knockin´
If you see this van a rockin´
Are you ready for a ride
Well I´m ready for a ride

Well I´m ready for a ride
When you see me comin´ round again

Out Of Time (Benes/Gore)
Well I remember the days
When we said the only way
To live was with each other
Lately it seems
Broken hearts, broken dreams
Not happy, ever after
Now I´m just
I´m ridin´ life´s little rodeo
(Goin´ back)
Try to hold on to the end of that rope
(Now I see)
But now I see it
It´s the end of the line
I have to find
My piece of mind
I´m out of time
The music we made
On the stage of love we said
That it would last forever
But somewhere along the way
When the chords began to change
Our notes would clash together
Now I am, I´m like a guitar playin´ just out of tune
(Goin´ back)
You hear the song but it don´t sound like it should
(Now I see)
And even words, well they´re stopping to rhyme
And my heart I find
Is startin´ to beat
Out of time
GUITAR SOLO
Now I am, I´m like a guitar playin´ just out of tune

Is startin´ to beat
Out of time
(Time is taking hold)
Beatin´ out of time
(Time is taking hold)
It´s beatin´ out of time oh yeah
(Time is taking hold)
Beatin´ out of time
(Time is taking hold)
Out of time
(Time is taking hold)
You pushed me farther
Just a little bit further this time
Pulled on the handle
That was keepin´ my ass in line
Got this boy comin´ closer
To the flames in your eyes
And it´s too late to run away
You got me burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
You got me burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
You got me burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
You got me burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
SOLO BREAK
The lights are flashin´ red
It´s an emergency
But I can´t slow down now
You´ve got a hold on me
The world is spinnin´ around
The flames are all that I see
And it´s too late to run away
You got me burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
You got me burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
Yeah Yeah burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
Burnin´ like a fire yeah

GUITAR SOLO
You cool me down
When you talk so sweet
And then you turn up the heat
You got me burnin´ like a fire

Yeah Yeah burnin´ like a fire
(You´ve got me burnin´)
Burnin´ like a fire yeah

Dreams Inside My Head (Benes/Gore)
Never be so sure
Could be a trick of light
Don´t believe everything that you see at night
Closer to the end
Of the tunnel that has led me here
Fear is the faith of the fallen
And it feeds upon your screams and your tears
Nothing that you will ever have is free
And everything that you´ve seen before
Just a faded memory
It´s dreams inside my head
(Dreams inside my head)
It´s dreams inside my head
(Dreams inside my head)
It carries on and lives there
It´s dreams inside my head
(Dreams inside my head)
KEYBOARD SOLO

It´s dreams inside my head

Make that guitar talk
I Heaven't Got a Lady (Benes/Gore)
We used to talk for hours
Yeah we had so much to say
And all those silly games we played
We used to laugh for days and days and days
But then I left you for Manhatten
And that was the last time
That I saw your face
Now I haven´t got a lady
No, I haven´t got a lady for sure
I haven´t got a lady
No, I haven´t got a lady
Oh yeah
Time passed so quickly
And then one day I heard your name
And like a bolt of lightning
I knew my life would never be the same
All those feeling´s
Comin´ back now
I knew that I had
To get back again
Now I haven´t got a lady
No, I haven´t got a lady for sure
I haven´t got a lady

And I don´t care if, I don´t find her

Till my dying day

When you, you came around and took control
Get on your hands
And get on your knees
Well it´s quite a situation
When you´re beggin´ for it please

On this street with no name
Going down, down, down
Oh yeah down to my part of town
Going down, down, down
Yeah I´d like to show you around
(Whoa)
Going down, down, down
Oh yeah down to my part of town
Going down, down, down
Hell on earth is this sacred ground

You thought that I was deaf
Deaf, dumb and blind yeah
Don´t wanna take
Any more of these lies

Slap you once and then goodbye

Third Bitch In a Row (Benes/Gore)
I woke up screamin´
Another time
Keep me from dreamin´
Still on my mind
I got it bad
´Cause baby you´re no good
I got my finger on the trigger
And it´s ready to blow
Can´t believe this shit
Third bitch in a row
You had me flyin´
So high above
You laid me down
Yeah, you called it love
Now you´re the one
That´s gonna see the light
You gonna see the light baby
I got my hanging rope
And it´s ready to go
Can´t believe this shit
Third bitch in a row
And when the judge looks down
On this poor boy´s soul
And when he asks me why
I´m gonna, I´m gonna tell him so he knows
Third bitch in a row
GUITAR SOLO
So now I´m sittin´ in
In county jail
They locked me up
And they set no bail
But that´s alright
´Cause she done me wrong
Thirty years to life
With no parole
Can´t believe this shit
Third bitch in a row
Oh no
Long Gone (Benes/Gore)
Oh yeah I´m rolling
On down the highway
And leavin´ all
That I love behind
I´ve gotta break these chains
That hold me down
To this dog gone place
Get on back to where I started from
Well those good ole´ days
She lost the fire
For me in her heart
She set me free
Lord, set me free
To make a brand new start
So now I´m long, long gone
Far far away
Oh yes I´m long, long gone
Far far away
They say that freedom
Is what we all deserve
It´s given to us
From the man above
Oh but this freedom´s took my heart and soul
It´s knocked me to the ground
Oh yeah I´d give it back for just one chance
To have her back around
But that bird has flown
From her golden cage
Flyin´ high, she´s flyin´ high
From her yesterday´s
And now she´s long, long gone
Far far away
(Far far away)
Oh yes she´s long, long gone
Far far away
GUITAR SOLO
Now many years
Have passed me by
And yeah my heart
Is ridin´ high
The cloudy days are gone and there´s clear blue skies
The sun is shining bright
I have that lovin´ touch on me once again
It´s got me feelin´ right
Oh yeah I´m free
Free once again
Oh but this freedom, lord this freedom
Is from her memory
Because it´s long, long gone
Far far away
Oh yes it´s long, long gone
Far far away
Oh yes it´s long, long gone
Far far away
(Far far away)
Oh yes it´s long, long gone
Far far away
Fall Into The Sky (Benes/Gore)
And so the cowboy rides for one last time
He wipes the teardrops from his eyes
He looks around and wonders why
Well is it worth the time to try
Day by day just trying to be free
But it will never ever be
The wheel of time, rolls along you see
And in the end we just can´t believe
We go on living our same old lives
Never lookin´ back or asking why
The tattle tales, oh they will tell those same old lies
As we all fall into the sky
HARMONICA AND GUITAR SOLO
We walk the road up to paradise
But seem to fall along the side
And we could live, or die
And never know the reasons why
We go on living our same old lives
Never lookin´ back or asking why
The tattle tales, oh they will tell those same old lies
As we all fall into the
Go on living our same old lives
Never lookin´ back or asking why
The tattle tales, oh they will tell those same old lies
As we all fall into the
