There's a rose in the fisted glove / And the eagle flies with the dove / And if you can't be with the one you love / Love the one you're with / Love The One You’re With / When you're down and confused / And you don't remember who you're talking to / Concentration, slips away / Because your baby is so far away / Well there's a rose in the fisted glove / And the eagle flies with the dove / And if you can't be with the one you love, honey / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Now, don't be angry, don't be sad / And don't sit crying over good times you've had / Get it together, and make it nice / You ain't gonna need any more advice / There's a rose in the fisted glove / And the eagle flies with the dove / But if you can't be with the one you love, honey / Love the one you're with, / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Love the one you're with / Doo doot doot doot doot doot doot doot…

You ask me if I love you / And I choke on my reply / I’d rather hurt you honestly / Than mislead you with a lie / And who am I to judge you / On what you say or do / I’m only just beginning / To see the real you / And sometimes when we touch / The honesty’s too much / And I have to close my eyes and hide / I wanna hold you till I die / Till we both break down and cry / I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides / At times I’d like to break you / And drive you to your knees / At times I’d like to break through / And hold you endlessly / At times I understand you / And I know how hard you try / I watched while love commands you / And I’ve watched love pass you by / At times I think we’re drifters / Still searching for a friend / A brother or a sister / But then the passion flares again / And sometimes when we touch / The honesty’s too much / And I have to close my eyes and hide / I want to hold ya till I die / Till we both break down and cry / I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides / Subsides.

Hand me down my walkin' cane / Hand me down my hat / Hurry now and don't be late / 'Cause we ain't got time to chat / You and me were goin' out / To catch the latest sound / Guranteed to blow your mind / So high you won't come down / Hey y'all prepare yourself for the rubberband man / You've never heard a sound / Like the rubberband man / You're bound to lose control / When the rubberband starts to jam / Once I went to hear them play / At a club outside of town / I was so surprised / I was hypnotized / By the sound these cats put down / When I saw this short fat guy / Stretch a band between his toes / Hey I laughed so hard 'cause the man got down / When he finally reached his nose / Hey y'all prepare yourself for the rubberband man / You've never heard a sound / Like the rubberband man / You're bound to lose control / When the rubberband starts to jam / Doo-doo-doo-do / Doo-doo-doo-do / Rubberband man / Hand me down my walkin' cane / Hand me down my hat / Hurry now and don't be late / 'Cause we ain't got time to chat / You and me were goin' out / To catch the latest sound / Guranteed to blow your mind / So high you won't come down / Hey y'all prepare yourself for the rubberband man / You've never heard a sound / Like the rubberband man / You're bound to lose control / When the rubberband starts to jam / Doo-doo-doo-do / Rubberband man.

Ain't it good babe, you and me / We sailed the stormy waters, we calmed the angry sea / We knew we could babe, you and me / Just as long as we have you and me / What more can a man want, than a woman by his side / To understand, and hold his hand/ That every day can be the same, sometimes it's gonna rain / You are my sunshine (thank you), and I'm your man / Ain't it good babe, you and me / We sailed the stormy waters, we calmed the angry sea / We knew we could babe, you and me / Just as long as we have you and me / What more could a woman want than a man there beside her / Thru the good times, we had bad times (wait a minute!) / You've always been a pillow, a shoulder and a friend / And I thank God, that you are mine / Ain't it good babe, you and me / We sailed the stormy waters, we calmed the angry sea / We knew we could babe, you and me / Just as long as we have you and me.

Toto I get the feelin' we're not in Kansas anymore / Through the wind and storm / We find ourselves alone / Toto I get the feelin' we're not in Kansas anymore / We're on a golden road in a moving picture show / (Chorus:) Oh, don't it feel like paradise / (And) Oh, how could somethin' be so nice? / But at least I've got company / 'Cause Toto, it's you and me And here we go / Toto, I get the feelin' we're not in Kansas anymore / But all I want to know Is how do we get home / Toto, we've found our way inside a book of dreams / Our time is almost gone, yet it seems it's just begun / (Chorus) / 'Cause I wanna go home / I wanna go home...

When my Baby, When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio De Janeiro / My-oh me-oh / I go wild then I have to do the samba, Then la bamba / Now I'm not the kind of person with a passionate persuasion for dancin' or romancin' / But I give in to the rhythm and my feet follow the beat of my heart / Oh-oh-oh / When my baby, when my baby smiles at me / I go to Rio, De janeiro / I'm a salsa fellow / When my baby smiles at me / She shines the lanterns of my life / And I am free at last what a blast! / Yeah Whoa / When my baby, when my baby smiles at me / I feel like Tarzan of the jungle / There on the hot sand / And in the bungalow / While monkeys play above-a / We'll make love-a / Now I'm not the type to let vibrations / tickle my imagination easily / You know that's just not me / But I turn into a tiger every time I'm beside the one I love, love, love... / Oh-oh-oh / When my baby, when my baby smiles at me / I go to Rio, De janeiro / I'm a salsa fellow / When my baby smiles at me / She shines the lanterns of my life / And I am free at last what a blast!

Ooooh... He's the greatest dancer / Oooooh... That I've ever seen... / One night in a disco / On the outskirts of Frisco / I was cruising' with my favorite gang / The place was so boring / Filled with out-of-towners touring / I knew that it wasn't my thing / I really wasn't caring / But I felt my eyes staring / At a guy who stood out in the crowd / He had the kind of body / That would shame Adonis / And a face that would make any man cry / Oh... what... wow ! He's the greatest dancer / Oh... what... wow ! That I've ever seen... / He wears the finest clothes / The best designers, heaven knows / Ooh, from his head down to his toes / Halston, Gucci, Fiorucci / He looks like a still / That man is dressed to kill / Oh... what... wow ! He's the greatest dancer / Oh... what... wow ! That I've ever seen... / I love the way you move...

I'll be loving you always, with a love that's true always / When the things you've planned, need a helping hand, I will understand, always / Always / Days may not be fair, always / That's when I'll be there, always / Not for just an hour, not for just a day, not for just a year but always.

I can see you're feeling down, did your lover push you round / And would you like to sit and talk it over / I see the hunger in your eyes / I try my best to satisfy / Come here and lay your head upon my shoulders / Cause we know it's not the real thing baby / oh so what's the use in trying to pretend / We're just like sister and brother / And now we need each other / What's a little love between friends / We must have read each other's mind / cause you came just in the nick of time / Another lonely night two old friends can share / Oh but surely this can do no harm / It feels so good here in your arms / Even if this whole thing is wrong, I don't care / Cause we know it's not the real thing honey / oh so what's the use in trying to pretend / We're just like sister and brother / And now we need each other / What's a little love between friends / What's a little love between friends / What's a little love between friends...

Spirits move me, every time I'm near you / Whirling like a cyclone in my mind / Your my lifeline, angel of my lifetime / Answers to all answers I can find / Baby I want you / Come, come, come into my arms / Let me feel the wonder of all of you / Cause bay I want you, now, now, now and hold on fast / Could this be the magic at last / Baby take me high upon a hillside / High up where the stallion meets the sun / I could love you, build my world around you / Never leave you till my life is done / Baby I lovet you / Come, come, come into my arms / Let me know the wonder of all of you / Baby I want you, now, now, now and hold on fast / Could this be the magic at last.

I was blue and I was always wearing a frown / because my guy had turned me down / Then we met and you can bet I knew from the first / you were my love, and that's when the old gray cloudburst / I was blue and I was always wearing a frown / because my guy had turned me down / Then we met and you can bet I knew from the first / you were my love, and that's when the old gray cloudburst / My heart really flew, the day you caught my eye / I hope that we two will never say "Good-bye." / Clouds of gray have silver linings when they reverse / I found your love and that's when the old gray cloudburst / Hey, baby..... / I'm gonna tell you 'bout your lovin' / and your kissn' and your huggin' / and your sweet turtle-dovin' pretty baby / I won't be satisfied til I hear 'em play, "Here comes the bride." / 'Cause you're thrillin' me, you're really, really thrilling when you tell me that you probably got a kind of crush on me / That moves me, grooves me / How divine can one woman be? / Well little darlin' / you got me fallin' / You got me goofy and gay / I'm gonna get carried away / Just think, you're gonna be mine someday / When it's cloudy and gray and that's the worst / How do you cause the cloud to burst? / If it's silvery under clouds of gray / How do you chase the clouds away? / 'Cause I love you baby, love you baby, love you baby, love you baby / Sounds easy does it? / How pleasant was it? / It's so wonderful, what a love can do / Look at what love has done for you / I was blue and I was always wearing a frown / because my guy had turned me down / Then we met and you can bet I knew from the first / you were my love, and that's when the old gray cloudburst / That's when the old, gray, cloud burst!

Yeah / Ooh / Here comes the ... one, two, three / It's all part of my fantasy / I love the music and I love to see the crowd / Dancing in the aisles and singing out loud / It's all part of my rock'n'roll fantasy / It's all part of my rock'n'roll dream / It's all part of my rock'n'roll fantasy / Left a good job in the city / Workin' for the Man every night and day / But I never lost a minute of sleepin' / Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been / Big wheel keep on turnin' / Proud Mary keep on burnin' / Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river... / Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do... / I was made for lovin' you baby / You were made for lovin' me / And I can't get enough of you baby / Can you get enough of me / Tonight I wanna see it in your eyes / Feel the magic / There's something that drives me wild / And tonight we're gonna make it all come true / 'Cause you were made for me / And I was made for you / I was made for lovin' you baby / You were made for lovin' me / And I can't get enough of you baby / Can you get enough of me / I am all alone / There is no one here beside me / And my problems have all gone / There is no one to deride me /
But you got to have friends / The feeling's oh so strong / You got to have friends / To make that day last long / Standing at the end of the road, boys / Waiting for my new friends to come / I don't care if I'm hungry or poor / I'm gonna get me some of them / I had some firends, oh, but they're all gone, gone / Someone came and snatched them away / And from the dusk until the very dawn, you know / Here is where I gotta stay, here is where I gotta stay / 'cause you gotta have friends / That's right, friends, friends / Oh, friends, that's right, friends, friends / Friends, friends, friends, friends, oh / Friends, you gotta have friends . . . / It's all part of my rock'n'roll fantasy / you're all part of my rock'n'roll fantasy.© 1979 by Paul Rodgers / © 1969 by J.C.

Come bring me your softness / Comfort me through all this madness / Woman, don't you know, with you I'm born again / Come give me your sweetness / Now there's you, there is no weakness / Lying safe within your arms, I'm born again / I was half, not whole / In step with none / Reaching through this world / In need of one / Come show me your kindness / In your arms I know I'll find this / Woman, don't you know, with you I'm born again / Lying safe with you I'm born again / Come bring me your softness / Comfort me through all this madness / Woman, don't you know, with you I'm born again / Come give me your sweetness / Now there's you, there is no weakness / Lying safe within your arms, I'm born again / Woman, don't you know, with you I'm born again / I was half, not whole / In step with none / Reaching through this world
In need of one / Come show me your kindness / In your arms I know I'll find this / Woman, don't you know, with you I'm born again / Lying safe with you I'm born again.© 1979 by David Shire and Carol Connors.
You're neither here nor there, but somehow you're eveywhere / Or is that the wind reminding me of how you touched my hair / We used to laugh at time, but wasn't that yesterday / Didn't we touch / Didn't we feel / Didn't the music play / It's the last song I'm ever gonna hear / It's the last song that makes me feel you're near / It was the last dream that ever had a chance of coming true / The music of my life has gone with you / Why can't the past begin / Why did the future end / Would it betray a memory if I could love again / We never reached the sun, not cause we didn't try / We were so close, we were so warm, why did the music died / It's the last song I'm ever gonna hear/ It's the last song that makes me feel you're near / It was the last time that I ever shared the feelings that we knew / The music of my life has gone with you.
