Fool For You (free) 03:11
I pick up your dainties and I shine your shoes Take your books to the library when they’re over due I cut you flowers down by the river I fry up some chicken child you know I deliver I’m a fool for you I’m a fool for you I do the things I do
I do them all for you Cause I am a fool for you Ask me to swim the deepest ocean You know I will Ask me to climb the highest mountain You know I will As long as when I am through I can come home to you Cause I am a fool for you I bid the moon to wait a little while I plant flowers that blossom at your smile I write you lyric poetry in the spring
I teach your name to the birds so they have something beautiful to sing I would paint your face high the moon You must know by now, I’m crazy as a loon (for you) I’m a fool for you I’m a fool for you I do the things I do
I do them all for you Cause I am a fool for you I’m a fool for you I’m a fool for you I do the things I do
I do them all for you Cause I am a fool for you I’m a fool for you I’m a fool for you I do the things I do
I do them all for you Cause I am a fool for you

Sensitive Man (free) 03:20
Every woman I knew, well I knew her name Each one different, not one the same Each gotta a different set of curves Each had a story that I heard I might not be too good with places and dates But I swear I never forget a face I ain’t cut out for no one night stand Turns out after all I’m a sensitive, sensitive man Ain’t cut out for no one night stand Turns out after all after all I’m a sensitive man This girl picked me up, she blew me away I don’t know what else to say I didn’t know it could be like that She turned me inside out she left me flat She mopped me up right off the floor And tossed me with the cat out the door I guess I wasn’t part of her plans I was just one half of a one night stand I guess I wasn’t part of her plans I was just one half of a one night stand I didn’t feel angry, I didn’t feel bad Maybe I felt a little bit sad All the twists and turns there are in the road And I went to a place I shouldn’t go Comes to me like an acid flash back We are twisting and tumbling in the sack It feels a bit like a belly ache Or maybe a fever that just won’t break Maybe it stuck cause it went so fast And maybe it won’t stop cause it didn’t last I ain’t cut out for no one night stand Turns out after all I’m a sensitive, sensitive man Ain’t cut out for no one night stand Turns out after all after all I’m a sensitive man I ain’t cut out for no one night stand Turns out after all I’m a sensitive, sensitive man Ain’t cut out for no one night stand Turns out after all after all I’m a sensitive man

Tonight (free) 02:41
Big old party going on They lit a fire gonna last till dawn There goes Mary, I’ve got eyes for you Look out boys I’m coming through Tonight She drinks me up with her deep blue eyes Tonight Ah Tonight The time is right…. Tonight Dance and drink, yea we drink and dance Everybody’s gone into a trance Just when the band hits overdrive Me and Mary we step outside Tonight She drinks me up with her deep blue eyes Tonight Ah Tonight The time is right…. Tonight Sometimes the pain is just too much to abide You gotta let it go, gotta let it ride Pretend that tomorrow’s a brand new day And all your pain and worry will be washed away By Tonight Me and Mary lie on the lawn Inside they play her favorite song She says you know I don’t live far I say can we walk or do we need a car Tonight She drinks me up with her deep blue eyes Tonight Ah Tonight The time is right….

Bye Bye (free) 03:01
Hopped in my car, drove over to her place Couldn’t been more’en a couple minutes late Ran across the porch, knocked on the door Voice inside said, she don’t live here no more Then I noticed this message on my cell Not much there, not much to tell Oh my no she didn’t even try Oh my no she didn’t say why. All she said was: Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye (That’s all!) She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye We didn’t have a scene, didn’t have a fight Last time I saw her we kissed good night Maybe she was giving just as good as she got All those times she’d been wordlessly dropped All those calls getting no reply Didn’t she know, I wasn’t that kinda guy Oh my no she didn’t even try Oh my no she didn’t say why. All she said was: Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye (That’s all!) She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye Oh that message it was cruel but concise
Oh that message it weren’t very nice All the things she’d left unsaid I wasn’t cut, but I bled Oh that gal threw me for a loop Used me like a hoola hoop Though the message woulda been the same Pissed me off, she didn’t say my name Like I was one of a hundred men The kind she’d seen before, the kind she’d see again. Oh my no she didn’t even try Oh my no she didn’t say why. All she said was: Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye (That’s all!) She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye She said Bye, Bye, Baby, Bye Bye She said Bye!

Here I Am (free) 02:34
She said are you gonna be there I said sure like I didn’t care Something had happened tween her and me What it was, we’d have to wait and see Here I am Here I am And I’ve been waiting for you Here I am Here I am And I am wondering now If love If love If love can ever be true Can it ever be There she stands with a drink in her hand Talking with that tall dark and handsome man I pretend like I don’t see As they walk on right by me Here I am Here I am And I’ve been waiting for you Here I am Here I am And I am wondering now If love If love If love can ever be true Can it ever be I walk over with a big old smile She says she’d been there for a while Wondered what had happened to me I say I’m glad she waited to see Here I am Here I am And I’ve been waiting for you Here I am Here I am And I am wondering now If love If love If love can ever be true Can it ever be I say are you ready to go She says sure how did you know I say it looked pretty easy to see She said like I know you want me Here I am Here I am And I’ve been waiting for you Here I am Here I am And I am wondering now If love If love If love can ever be true Can it ever be true Can it ever be

I Guess (free) 04:10
There I was waiting as I’d waited before Listening for something outside of your door I guess you had better things to do I guess you just had better things to do I’d hate to think I was forgotten But that was it down at rock bottom I bet you had other things on your mind
You musta had other things on your mind There I was at the keyhole I live’d my life too much like a mole I guess I might as well have just been dirt I guess I was just dirt You was all bottled up inside I don’t know what the hell you were trying to hide I guess I might as well have been a dead light bulb I guess I might as well have been a dead light bulb Whatever it was you made it worse From the center of your tiny universe I guess I was just a figment of your imagination I guess I was just a figment of your imagination And all the times I tried to help But you just wouldn’t help yourself
I guess I musta been nothing but an irritation I guess I was just an irritation You was all wrapped up in your misery There really wasn’t any place for me I guess I might as well have not been there I guess I just might as well have not been there And you went and you called it love I don’t know what the hell it was
I guess I might as well have been thin air I guess I just might as well have been thin air There I was waiting as I waited before Listening for anything outside your door I guess you just had better things to do I hope you had better things to do

Tunnel (free) 04:30
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel Oooooooooooooooh! The tunnel of Love
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel Oooooooooooooooh! Oh the tunnel of Love And once you’re in that light Nothing again will be as it was As it once was That light goes on forever That light goes on forever That light goes on forever At the end of
The tunnel of Love The tunnel of Love You got your memories They shine so bright They wake you up in the middle of the night You want to hold her again hold her so tight In the Tunnel of Love There’s a light at the end of the tunnel Oooooooooooooooh! The tunnel of Love
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel Oooooooooooooooh! Oh the tunnel of Love And once you’re in that light Nothing again will be as it was As it once was That light goes on forever That light goes on forever That light goes on forever At the end of The tunnel of Love The tunnel of Love You may get on your knees you may moan you may groan You may force your way back in you won’t be alone Just another gray spirit among the boys and all the girls Unable to get back to its own world From the tunnel of love There’s a light at the end of the tunnel Oooooooooooooooh! The tunnel of Love
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel Oooooooooooooooh! Oh the tunnel of Love And once you’re in that light Nothing again will be as it was As it once was That light goes on forever That light goes on forever That light goes on forever At the end of The tunnel of Love The tunnel of Love The tunnel of Love

Long Haul (free) 03:58
Useta feel like a declaration of war Now I don’t care who wins no more Once I did but that was youth Now I prefer the extended truce My oh my but you’re a prickly pear A picking up insults when they’re just none there Oh I know I should watch my mouth I open it up and stuff just pops out Oh I know what I said, I say I’m sorry that you took it that way I know I coulda said something else instead But you’d never get to know all the voices in my head You get all serious, say we got to talk I get all antsy and I want to walk Do we gotta talk about it some more Ain’t we talked about all that before Talking, talking never did a thing Like to the birdies when they sing I guess it’s just part of the ride Raking over everything everything inside Oh the differences are pretty clear Though the edges smooth out some over the years I am me you be you Each one of a kind, we’ll always be two 
I got anger, you got tears You get brave, while I got fears You see the light, I see black dawn Each of us right, neither of us wrong One cuts the path while the other one rests One remembers what the other forgets One picks up the other when the other one falls I guess we’re in it baby for the long haul One picks up the other when the other one falls I guess we’re in it baby for the long haul

Stuck On You (free) 02:49
I search my mind for reasons why We should be together now baby you and I I guess I just don’t need a whole lot a glue To be Stuck on You I don’t know what I feel But I hope it’s real I hope it’s real I don’t know if it’s true Boop-Boopy-Do But it will have to do But it will have to do Cause I’m stuck on you Like a pope to Rome Like honey to the comb Like a boy to home Like a dog to its bone I’m stuck on you People see us together They think there goes stormy weather They assume You and I don’t belong in the same room I search my mind for reasons why We should be together now darling you and I I guess I just don’t need a whole lot a glue To be stuck on you I don’t know what I feel But I hope it’s real I hope it’s real I don’t know if it’s true Boop-Boopy-Do But it will have to do But it will have to do Cause I’m stuck on you Like a pope to Rome Like honey to the comb Like a boy to home Like a dog to its bone Like spam to the can Peanut butter to jam Like a boat to the dock Like a tick to a tock Like a ping to a pong I’m stuck on you I’m stuck on you

One and Only (free) 04:14
It’s hard to watch as you fade away Smiling less and less now each and every day You mighta though things would come right If you waited faithfully all those long and lonely nights I am waiting to see If I will ever be Your one and only But until then
I wish I could say when 
I will be your one and lonely Your one and lonely You didn’t do a damn thing wrong He just up and split and now he’s gone I think maybe baby you should face the facts He split and he ain’t coming back I am waiting to see If I will ever be Your one and only But until then
I wish I could say when
 I will be your one and lonely Your one and lonely Some people say it’s all been a waste I’ve waited too long and now it’s too late But there’s far worse things a man might do Than to be sitting here waiting with you I am waiting to see If I will ever be Your one and only But until then
I wish I could say when 
I will be your one and lonely Your one and lonely Your one and lonely
