Slade's Song
Everyday
Everyday when I'm away
I'm thinking of you
Everyone can carry on
Except for we two
And you know that our love
And you know that I
And you know that our love won't die
CHORUS
And it won't even show
And no-one will know
One little wave
To say you'll behave
It won't even show
How far love can go
Everyday when I'm away
And ther's been a few
Every land I need a hand
To help me come through
And you know etc....
She Did it To Me
By Holder & Lea:
Anytime you feel like you're down
Anytime you want a friend around
Cos I knew that soon we'd fall
Everyday has said it all
And I've landed with my two feet on the ground
CHORUS:
She can read in your eyes
All the truths, all the lies
She did it to me, she did it to me
She can read how you're made
In the light, in the shade
She did it to me, she did it to me
Anytime you feel a little pain
Anytime you want to talk again
Cos I knew that soon we'd dry
Everyday will tell you why
And for old times sake we'll meet up in the rain
-Break-
Cos I knew you hadn't planned
Everyday so understand
When you're tired of sugar dad will I be here
REPEAT CHORUS

Far far Away
By Holder & Lea:
I've seen the yellow lights go down the mississipi
I've seen the prettys of the world never real
I had a red light of the wrist
Without me even getting kissed
It's still seem so unreal
I've seen the morning in the mountains of Alsaka
I've seen the sunset in the east and in the west
I sung the glory that was ol' and passed the hound of sing a song
CHORUS
It's still seem for the best
And I'm far far away
With my head up in the clouds
And I'm far far away
With my feet down in the clouds
That is loose around the world
But the call of home is loud
Still is loud
I've seen the fresh light from high up in Mount Mattma
And felt the silence hang in lone
Lone man's life
And though fresh light was fine
That wasn't from the winw
CHORUS REPEAT ONE TIME
I've seen yellow lights go down in Mississpi
It ran the harbor and island always carry on
And though I get the smiles staying in your memory for a while
CHORUS REPEAT TWICE
How Does It Feel?
By Holder & Lea:
How does it feel
Running around, round, round
How does it feel
Watching from up side down
Cuz many years from now
There will be new sensations
And new temtations
How does it feel
How does it feel
Right at the start
How does it feel
When you are thrown apart
Cuz many years from now
There will be new elations
And new frustrations
How does it feel! Oh
Do you know, know, know
What it's like to be searching
In your own time
Oh you're attemted, experimented
All on the cloud
Do you know, know, know
What it's like to be searching
And suddenly find
All your illusion
All your confusion
All left behind
How does it feel, turning away
How does it feel, facing another day
Cuz many years from now
There will be new
And new horizons
How does it feel Oh Oh Oh
Do you know, know, know
What it's like to be searching
In your own time
Oh you're attemted, experimented
All on the cloud
Do you know, know, know
What it's like to searching
And suddenly find
All your illusion
All your confusion
All left behind
Cuz many years from now
There will be new tomorrows
And still some sorrows
How does it feel Oh Oh Oh
Do you know, know, know
What it's like to searching in your own time
Oh you're attemted, experimented
All on a cloud
Oh
Do you know, know, know
What it's like to be searching, and suddenly find
All your illusion
All your confusion
All left behind
Let's call It Quits
By Holder & Lea:
You keep me straight
I'll keep you narrow
You got the magic that can chill me to the marrow
But I got something here that's big enough for two
You want me sweet
I want you pretty
You got some funny lines that make you sound so witty
But I got something here that's big enough for two
CHORUS:
Let's call it quits
Let's call it quits
Before we breaks one another into bits
Let's call a tie
Let's call a tie
Before we make one another starts to cry
You got the why
I got the wherefore
You got me trapped hook, line and sinker
And so therefore
I still got something here that's big enough for two
Bangin' Man
By Holder & Lea:
When you wake up in the morning
You can't remember much about the night before
Then a lady who's beside you gets up
She goes right out and locks the bathroom door
And your head won't stop singing, the phone won't
Stop ringing, your plane is going to leave at 12:15
It was close to 6 o'clock before you got to know
A little dream
CHORUS:
Look at the bangin' man, he says he can
Time after time
He'll get down, down, down
So bang him back home
REPEAT CHORUS ONCE
I've been in fifty different towns in fifty different
days, and they all got different ladies
I've been in fifty limousines and fifty hotel rooms
And they all look the same
And hear your head won't stop cracking, your face she's
Unpacking, the only sound is from the TV screen
Until a knock comes on the door and standing
There is another limousine
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
Oh when you wake up in the morning you can't
Remember much about the night before
A small reminder of the state you were in are all
The tattered clothes across the floor
And your head still keeps singing, the phone it
Still keeps ringing, remember just exactly where
you've been
'Cause there ain't no doubt about it, there's no
better things to see then what you've seen.
REPEAT CHORUS 5 TIMES

In you're in for a penny
You got to be in for a pound

Were you surprised when you tried me for size
You bit of more than you could chew

You wanted to paint me in oils
Owh you are tender do you remember

Universe
By Jimmy Lea
I was coming home, I was all alone
In a place so cold I don't feel
I was there for years, so afraid of fears
I was lost and that was the curse
Oh won't you be my universe
Oh yeah
I can hear the sound, I can hear it loud
Of the beat before time was dawned
Through the fire and rain I can feel your pain
Won't you be the last like the first
Oh won't you be my universe
How much have I traveled
How much have I seen
Is this reality or a broken dream
Oh, through raging storms won't you keep me warm
Im the hunger and the thirst
Oh won't you be my universe
Merry Xmas Everybody
By Holder & Lea
Are you happy love, beside you on the wall
Is the time that every Santa has a ball
Does he ride red-nosed reindeer
Does he turn upon his sleigh
Do the fairies keep his soul but for a day
Chorus:
So here it is Merry Xmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun
Are you waiting for the family to arrive
Are you sure you've got the room to spare inside
Does your granny always tell you that the old songs are the best
Then she's up and rockin' rollin' with the best
Repeat Chorus once
What will your daddy do when he sees you by the Xmas Santa Claus
Ah ha
Are you hanging up your stockings on your wall
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall
Do you ride on down the hillside in a buggy you have made
When you land and fall on your head then you will say
Repeat Chorus 3 times

7 Years Bitch
Noddy Holder & Jimmy Lea
You're going round the circle
Through another phase
Your temperature rising
You're wining and dining
A girl who's half your age
She gives you all the business
She gives to older men
And it's oh so understandable
This ladykiller move
There must be something bottled up
You think you you gotta prove
Cos now that you're a member
Of something on the side
It's number ...
CHORUS:
One, two and three, four and five, six, seven year
Can you controll the bitch
One, two and three, four and five, six, seven
Can you controll the itch
To tell the truth you're old' enough
To be her dad
She ain't gonna let up
She want's you toset up
A cosy little pad
Where she can entertain you
And everything is free
I can tell you always were a sucker
For a pretty face
The nights you're a member
Of something on the side
It's number ...
CHORUS:
One, two and three, four and five, six, seven year
Can you controll the bitch
One, two and three, four and five, six, seven
Can you controll the itch
You tell the wife another
Business trip abroad
It's getting to much
You better not touch
What you cannot affort
Iknow it's monkey business
And I've seen it all before
And I know that you were overcome
When she told you you're the best
You better believe she's saying the same
To me and all the rest
Cos now that you're a member
Of a little bit on the side
It's number ...
CHORUS:
One, two and three, four and five, six, seven year
Can you controll the bitch
One, two and three, four and five, six, seven
Can you controll the itch

I remember the time when I saw you
Standing there all alone in a crowd
I remember the time
Cos we drank too much wine
CHORUS:
We all join hands
And we all join hands
So let's all join hands
Here and now
All the girls getting kissed in the ballroom
All the boys Brahms and Liszt on the floor
I remember the time
When we sang Auld Lang Syne
CHORUS:
We all join hands
And we all join hands
So let's all join hands
Here and now
Have the time of your life when you're younger
Have the time of your life when you're old
Drink the wine, feeling fine
As we sang Auld Lang Syne
REPEAT CHORUS:
We all join hands
And we all join hands
So let's all join hands
Here and now
Wonderin' Y
Noddy Holder & Jimmy Lea
Here I am in the same old clothes,
Lookin' back on my life,
Cos I'm left alone,
Left out here without a home.
Take no chance read between the lines,
Don't accept her way,
when she always cries,
Just read between the lines.
Chorus
I tried to lover you now I'm here
Takin' things as I find them,
Now I'm here, wastin' time,
Thinkin of me,
Lookin' back on my life,
Wonderin' why.
It's hard to see and to understand,
Just-a what its like,
To be pushed around,
Kickin' stone along the ground.
I don't think it will ever change,
Can I find a way
To the front again,
And have another chance to spend,
My life with you and now I'm here

One Eyed Jacks With Moustaches
Noddy Holder & Jimmy Lea
One Eyed Jacks With Moustaches
Are wild on the side
Two eyed queens makin' passes
With childs on the side
Hard hearted Mamas who ain't
Cold as ice on the side.
Bald headed eagles like to
Feather their nests on the side,
Wide eyed Madonnas like to
Treasure their chests on the side,
Smooth talkin' Gigolo[s] are going along for the ride.
CHORUS:
Hit me, hit me, hit me Mac
Gimme a jack before I pack
Hit me, hit me, hit me Joe
Gimme a hit before I go.
I'm gonna tell ya pretty Mama,

I'm gonna tell ya pretty baby,
That you won't make me cry,
Umma gumma uma uma,
Make me feel good,
Ooh pretty baby baby,

Come a come a baby,
Don't you tell me no lie,
Come a come a honey honey
Don't make me cry

And One Eyed Jacks
With Moustaches are wild.
One Eyed Jacks With Moustaches,
Are wild on the side,
Two eyed queens with eyelashes
That flashes and cried
Hard hearted Mamas who talk
To you nice on the ride.

Summer Song (Wishing You Were Here)
Noddy Holder & Jimmy Lea
Ev'rybody needs a by the sea affair
Where you get the urge from something in the air
Helter skelter on a mat
"Kiss me Quick" is on my hat
And you do it on the ghosttrain for a dare
Chorus
Wishing you were here - same as ev'ry year
'Cos our summer madness is too short
Wishing you were here - where the sun shine's near
Is it true that wishes can be bought
Ev'rybody needs the moonlight on the beach
Where the water's cold and noone hears you screech
Getting buried in the sand
What you holding in your hand
Let it go or else I'll keep it out of reach
Chorus
R E P E A T
Ev'rybody needs to have a sea romace
When the world around just doesn't stand a chance
Candy Floss stuck on your nose
And your donkey's name Rose
What's this cheek to cheek in ev'ry single dance
Chorus
R E P E A T
Know Who You Are
(Holder/Lea/Hill/Powell)
Know who you are
Know where you're going to...
Just take a look at the things
That make up a good living.
Tired of your socks
Trying your father's on.
Run around the world
Taking all that you want
You're not bothered.
Chorus
Know where you are
And where you've been
And where you're going to.
And make you sing a song
Maybe you're wrong
Finding a new way out...
Trying to work out the way
To include each one another
Think what you are
Think where you're going to
A sing a song to make out
That you're playing it easy
Chorus
Know where you are
And where you've been
And where you're going to
Until makes you sing a song
Know where you are
Know where you're going to
Read a new book
Finish the other one
Right from the start
Try and work out
The finishing answer...
Candidate
(Lea, Powell)
See him all alone,
No one seems to like him, he's uncool,
No one seems to like the way he rules,
See them all alone,
Talking of the secrets of the moon,
Spending hard-earned money they'll just lose.
Chorus
What we really want is some way to adjust,
All the values that we have been left to trust,
I just can't believe they are real, very real,
Far from real
See them on their own,
See their cartoon faves in the news,
Storming from the house in ones and twos,
Can you hear them cry,
Making accustions to each other,
Campaigning for the mark of a young mother.
Chorus
R E P E A T
What we really want is some way to adjust,
All the values that we have been left to trust,
I just can't believe
They're real, very real,
Far from real,
See them all alone
See them all alone.
Pack Up Your Troubles
By Holder & Lea
Somewhere down in the city there's a mad dog madder
Somewhere out in the sticks there's a sad cat sadder
But you ain't gonna let it got on top of you
No you ain't gonna let it get a hold
You gotta get out of that rut before you get old
Chorus
So pack up your troubles and go head for the hills
Leave all your worries behind
Pack up your liquor and your cigarettes and your pills
Go catch a fish on the line
Somewhere over the sun there's a bebop hummin'
Somewhere down at the station there's a freedomtrain commin'
Can you hear that chugga luggin better get on board
Get out of the wind and the cold
You gotta get out of that rut before you get old
Chorus R E P E A T
Somewhere up in the sky there's a big big dadda,
Sometime you'll have to climb up a dangerous ladder;
But there ain't such a word as impossible,
And there's always the never ending dream,
And things ain't never as bad as they might seem
Chorus R E P E A T
Somewhere on the horizon there's a deep hole waitin'
No one, no one at all is ever gonna get away;
You gotta reach out and touch the impossible,
And never ever let it get a hold,
You better get out of that rut before you get old.
Chorus R E P E A T
All you're ever ever gonna do will workout fine
Go catch a fish on the line.
One Way Hotel
By Holder & Lea
They asked me to sleep on the floor
The people were running the law
They asked for their time to make a number of changes
I let them.
I sat on my case in the hall
The window and ceiling looked tall
How long does it take to make a number of changes
When you let them.
The case of another man was open
The contents were lying on the floor
I could tell by his face he's a man like myself
That's for sure.
I was stand for a foot that are mere
The place was full up to the door
My mind was changed and habits were changed
Since I left them.
I finished my job now 'til morning
I though that was the fastest to go
It make you feed sick when you think of the tricks
They getup to.
The locks on the windows yourself not to open (not to open)
Come to think of it now
If I were a child they'd be broken.
I've now spent a year behind this door
The doctors would see me more
They asked me to sign with a pen on the time
I was done for.
So Far So Good
By Holder & Lea
For twenty odd years
I've taken ev'ry thing that's bad
For twenty odd years
I've wanted things I've never had
Oh was it all in the mind?
Is it living the life of a king
Making the best out of everything
Chorus
So far, so good
Doing what we could
Taking chances, those cances, and I'm alive.
So far, so good
Doing what we should
Taking chance, those chances, and I'm alive.
For twenty odd years
I've been working hard to have my say
And now that its here
The fantasy has worn away
Oh was it all in the mind?
Is it living on paradise row
Making the best out of having a go
Chorus R E P E A T
And I'm alive, and I'm alive, and I'm alive.
All The World Is a Stage

Together we can act out the age.
Chorus
All the world is a stage all the people are players,
Turn on the spotlight it's yours.
All the world is a stage, all the people are players,
Ring up the curtain Applause one thing's for certain, it's yours!

Your pleasure is only at your command
You are to set the example

To measure the storm that follows the calm.

But what comes in between you have yourself to blame:
It makes no difference at all
Just pick yourself when you fall
So ring up the certain - applause.
The Shape of Things to Come
By Mann & Weil
There's a new song passing angry in the sky
There's a new voive crying without afraid to die
Let the whole world make believe
It's crying to death and die.
Chorus

There are changes, lying ahead on every road
There are new thoughts
Ready and waiting to explode
When tomorrow - when tomorrow is today
The bell ring till for some
But -
Chorus
Nothing can shape of things to come
The future is coming on now sweet and strong
And no one is going to hold it for long
There are countries fighting at own reality
Revolution sweeping like a fresh new breathe
Let the whole world make believe
It's crying to death and die
Chorus
Nothing can shape of things
Nothing can shape of things
Nothing can shape of things
Nothing can shape of things
Nothing can shape of things to come.

I must say you look very well.

One last drop then we'll stop,
I'm happy that you came along.

Lay Your Love On The Line
By Hill & Hunt
I hear the sound of rock'n'roll thunder,
I think you know the spell that I'm under,
I feel that something's playin' crazy with my heart,
Up in the sky the heavens are fallin,
And all around the angels are callin',
You're movin' mountains, slowly tearin' me apart.
Chorus
Lay your love on the line
Lay your love on the line
Lay your love on the line
Say you're gonna be mine.
If I could be a man for all seasons,
Give me your answer, gibe me your reasons,
I'd like to be a king, if only for a day,
I've seen the world and I know what I'm after,
One look from you and my heart's a disaster,
And every dream I've dreamed
Would take your breath away.
Chorus
Lay your love on the line...
(Dave's solo)
Lay your love on the line...

Pouk Hill
By Holder, Lea & Powell
Did you see us
We were there standing there
With our arms in the air
Did you see us - did you see us
We were there standing still
And the temperature was nil
Stood in a line
Dick took a shot and he got us - and he got us
Did you help us - sympathize with us
Chorus
Please help me
Pouk Hill is older than you and me
Than you and me
He passed us by - not a glance second
Blues than blue - we were froze to the bone
Couldn't wait to be home in the firelight
We warm there
As we sat by the fire getting higher and higher
Really cool there - stood in a line
Dick tool a shot and he got us and he got us
Did you help us - critisize us
Chorus
Please help me
Pouk Hill is tall always will be
Pouk Hill is older than you and me
Than you and me.
Lay It Down.
By Holder & Lea
A beat on the drum
A drum on the beat
A change of the key
By pinching my seat
A beat on the drum has got to be there
The rise in my voice a spring on my chair.
A beat on the chord - a chord on the ring
A turn on the key - the break of a string
A ring on the chord has got to be here
The rise in my voice could sound very queer.
Chorus
Let's lay it down on the line
Let's lay it down while it shines
Let's lay it down while it moves
Let's lay it all in the grooves
Let's play it back with attack
Let's make the window panes crack.
A beat on the note
A note on the bend
The frog in my throat.
Goes through to the end
A bend on the note ist all very fine
So let it hang on - a hell of a time.
Chorus R E P E A T
A chase on the bass is all very fine.
There's onlay one plave
So watch for the sign.

Boys get tight out for a fight,
Love kickin' up a din
Girls just might know how to bite
Hug 'em and they'll soon give in
Chorus R E P E A T
O.K. Yesterday was yesterday
I say O.K. today's a better day
Knuckle Sandwich Nancy.
By Holder & Lea
A bunch of fives hit me in the jaw
I was out, put me on the floor, oh no
Once you were tried with GBH
Now I'm not just a pretty face, oh no
Chorus
(C'mon) Nancy beat me up
(C'mon) Nancy bring me round
(C'mon) A knuckle sandwich knocked me down, down, down
(C'mon) Nancy picked me up
(C'mon) From a left to right
(C'mon) A knuckle sandwich put me out like a light
You don't hit a man with his glasses on
This is what you call having fun? Oh no
I ended up with a briken nose
They're not so big when they're on their own, oh no
Chorus R E P E A T
Let'em fight
Knocked me down, down, down, down, down
Knock me down
Knock us out (6 times)
Ooh you're knocking me out
Well you're knocking me out, yeah
Hurl your fists and get down to a knee
She said 'Hey there mate are you lokking at me?' Oh no
'Or are you looking at Nancy' she said
All I learnt was a kick in the head in bed
Chorus R E P E A T (2 times)
Cheap And Nasty Love.
By Holder & Lea
Wohouhouhou!
Cheap and nasty - cheap and nasty
Cheap and nasty - love
She was a stranger who came out of nowhere
She makes a living out there on the street
And with a faraway look in her faraway eyes
The face of an angel who's seen the hard times
A case of survival without any ties
Chorus
It's cheap and nasty love
And she'd leave it if she could
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic
She couldn't make any other profession
And as she says, 'well, a girl's gotta eat'
Trying anything once with a trick of the trade
Rents by the hour making sure she gets paid
No satisfaction - it drives her insane
Chorus
It's cheap and nasty love
And she'd leave it if she could
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic - no!
Woh, cheap and nasty love
And she'd leave it if she could
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic - no!
Cheap and nasty love
Cheap and nasty love
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic
Oh, you know it ain't magic - no!
Standin' On The Corner.
By Holder & Lea
Standin' on the corner
Handbag in her thigh
Standin' in the shadows
Givin' all the boys the eye
Does anybody wanna try?
Chorus
She's a sure shining shimmy shootin'
high falutin' rootin' tootin' baby yeh!
And she's found herself a shimmy shootin'
high falutin' rootin' tootin' man:
She's a hard casin' fast racin' male
chasin' boot lacin' baby yeh!
And to get her evil way she'll do most
Anything her devil says she can
Standin' on the corner hand
Bag on her hip - standin' in the doorway
Givin' all the boys some lip
Does anybody wanna dip?
So look out now 'cos, I might be over tonight
Chorus R E P E A T
Standin' on the corner - burnin' up inside
Bendin' over backwards - wants her fire engine tried
Does anybody need a ride?
Chorus R E P E A T
Leanin' out the window
Givin' out her points
Learned on teacher's right knee
Now it's other low down joints
Does anybody need the points?
So look out now, I might be over tonight
Chorus R E P E A T
She's a sure shinin' shimmy shootin'
high falutin' rootin' tootin' son of a gun from Arizona,
And one day I'm gonna own that baby yeh!
And she's found herself a shimmy shootin'
high falutin' rootin' tootin' man:
She's a male chasin' boot lacin'
Some of the time a sweet tastin'
Hair raisin' two facin' baby yeh!
And to get her evil way she'll do most
Anything her devil says she can.
Gypsy Roadhog.
By Holder & Lea
Powdered my nose in Alabama
Out on a limb
Powdered my nose in Indiana
Ain't that a sin
I had to get my butt out quick
It always works - the old, old trick
I got away just in the nick of time, that's why
I powdered my nose in Oklahoma
Over the top
I wasted away in New Orleans
I couldn't stop
Down in the alley - happy dust
Me and Romona we was gettin' bust
I got away just in the nick of time, that's why
Chorus
I got the nickname the gypsy roadhog
On the California trail
I gotta keep my wheels movin' on
I gotta keep me outa jail
Powdered my nose in San Francisco
Down on the bay
It went to my head down in New York City
I was blasted away
And two ugly scuts bust in the room
They took away my little silver spoon
I got away just in the nick of time, that's why
Chorus R E P E A T
I'm comin' through, through, through
I'm looking for you
Wild Winds Are Blowing.
By Winsley & Saker
Jennie, John and Sister Suzie say that I've been bad
Now I don't know what they're talkin' about
But our dady sure is mad
I can't understand it why they're getting so uptight
I don't think I'll sick around here
I ain't lookin' for a fight.
Chorus
Wild winds are blowin'
Rivers keep on flowin'
So I'd better get going to try to leave it all behind
Wild winds are blowin'
Rivers keep on flowin'
So I'd better get going to get a little peace of mind.
My brother keeps on callin' 'round
To see what I intend
But I ain't never in when he calls
It's sad to lose a friend
I bought myself a ticket
But I don't wanna leave this town
And there's a lot of people right here
Who don't want me around.
Chorus R E P E A T
I heared her uncle Sammy
He's polishin' his gun
I don't like the look on his face
So I think I'd better run
I better get on a greyhound bus
Before her folks arrive
'Cause I am just a young man
And I wanta stay alive.
Chorus R E P E A T
Wild winds are blowin' yeah
Wild winds are blowin' yeah
Wild winds are blowin' yeah
Wild winds are blowin' yeah.
Still The Same.
By Holder & Lea
Oh we ain't goin' nowhere
We're just looking for somewhere
Whatever pulled us apart is still the same
It's still the same
Oh we're all one day older
Your hands are gradually colder
What made me weak in the knees is still the same
It's still the same
Oh you ain't been so tender
Your smell and how I remember
Although your only cologne is still the same
It's still the same
Oh I ain't a great romancer
And I ain't got all of the answers
What made me weak in the knees is still the same
It's still the same
Chorus
Nothing's changed
I'm taking the blame
No, nothing has changed
It's still the same
Nothing's changed
Start all over again
It's all in the game
It's still the same
It's still the same
Oh I know nothing's changing
I know I need re-arranging
I know I'm taking the blame, it's still the same
It's still the same
Oh I know nothing is changing
I know there's nothing remaining
I know it's all in the game, it's still the same
Still The Same
Chorus R E P E A T
Them Kinda Monkeys Can't Swing.
By Holder & Lea
Everywhere has a wheeler an' dealer
Raised in the back streets of town
Everywhere has a spieler who's a clown
Chorus
Them kinda monkeys can't swing
And them birdies can't sing
If them pigs could fly
Maybe they'd fly away from me
Every haunt has a hustler an' bustler
Born with the tongue of a snake
Everyhaunt has a muscler on the make
Chorus R E P E A T
Everywhere has a ducker an' diver
Doin' his best to impress
Everywhere has a sciver in a mess
Chorus R E P E A T
Every place has a joker at poker
Born with a marked deck of cards
Every place has a smoker in the yard
Chorus R E P E A T
Me And The Boys.
By Holder & Lea
Me and the boys wanna dance and score
There is a monkey suit across the door
You ain't coming in now with your crazy crowd
Oh no there ain't no jeans allowed
Chorus
Yeh hey we're going on the town
Me and the boys are gonna wear you down
Yeh hey we're going on our way
Me and the boys we we're doing O.K.
Down at the Raj we can all perspire
The Vindaloo kid has got his jeans on fire
Curry and lager are the spice of life
Next day they're gonna give me strife
Chorus R E P E A T
Me and the boys well we got no doubt
You're never too old to be a gadabout
Can't take em anywhere they cause a ruck
Oh no they never will grow up
Chorus R E P E A T
There in your jeans you know have cost the earth
You ain't coming in its more than my jobs worth
Look at the kid now with his shirt tail out
Oh no you wanna hear them shout
Chorus R E P E A T
Cocky rock boys (rule o.k.).
By Holder & Lea
Rock me boys - rock me boys!
You and me are the greatest thing
You and me are the honky kings
Rockin' on is the next best thing
To good love - to good love
A little bit of what you like
Slaps your face, says, 'on yer bike!'
She told you once and told you twice
There's no way - no way
Chorus
You cocky rock boys
You wanna roll away
You cocky rock boys
You rule o.k.
You cocky rock boys
You wanna roll away
You cocky rock boys
You rule o.k. - you rule o.k.
Get your oats in while you can
You're full of wit and it hits the fan
A fifty - fifty gambling man
Has no chance - no chance
You live on speed and it breaks your neck
A clapped out, living, loving wreck
You gotta keep yourself in check
I tell ya - tell ya
Chorus R E P E A T
Yeah...
Oh won't you rock me - rock me boys, rock me boys
Oh won't you rock me - roll away, roll away
Oh won't you rock me - oh won't you rock me
Oh won't you rock me - oh won't you rock me
Yeah...
Chorus R E P E A T
You cocky rock boys - you cocky rock boys
You cocky rock boys
You Frank and Johnny - you Frank and Johnny
You Frank and Johnny - you're hurting my arm

Did Your Mama Ever Tell Ya.
By Holder & Lea
Are you sitting comfortably?
Good! Then we'll begin... (spoken)
There was a crooked man
And he walked a crooked mile
He had a crooked stick
And oh boy how it cramped his stily
Well did ya mamma ever tell ya
Them kookie little nurs 'ry rhymes
Jack and Jill went up the hill
Supposed to get some water
They stayed up there a long time
Doing what they shouldn't ought-a
Chorus
Did ya mama ever tell ya
Them funky little nurs' ry rhymes.
And when you got a little older
Did you learn to read between the lines
What did ya mamma ever tell ya
'bout the A's and B's and C's
Did she ever tell ya
'bout the birds and the bees.
S'ay mamma ever tell ya
You were brought by the stork
And how you could run before you could walk?
Mary had a little lamb, his feet we're black as coal
He even followed her to bed
The naughty little soul did ya
Mamma ever tell ya
Them kookie little nurs'ry rhymes
Little Jackie Horner sitting quite in his corner
How'd he get that name
Doing what he shouldn't ought-a
Chorus R E P E A T
Solo
How about that oldie lady who was living in a shoe
She had so many children
She knew how and what to do - oh
Chorus R E P E A T
How you could run, how you could run,
How you could run before you could walk yeah !
Do The Dirty.
By Holder & Lea
Hear a whistle blowin' out there somewhere
Beware a wolf a knockin' on the door.
Hear a whistle blowin' out there somewhere
Leave his sheep skin on the floor
Chorus
Do the dirty, do the dirty, do the dirty now
Do the dirty, do the dirty, do the dirty and now
The things that we said went over their heads
Hear a bellow roarin' out there somewhere
Hear a bellow roarin' out there somewhere
Take his horns before it's too late
Chorus R E P E A T
Hear no sound o'nothin' out there nowhere
Beware a snake comin' through the grass
Hear no sound o'nothin' out there nowhere
Cold as ice so let him pass
Chorus R E P E A T
