Diesel Locomotive

For forty long years I've been sitting back
Now I'm headed for the railroad track and
when you see me com in' just get out of the way
Cause I'm a Diesel Locomotive
Deal with this runaway
I'm a Diesel Locomotive, I'm a Bullet Train
Impact hitting like a hurricane
And when you see me common, just get out of the way
Cause I'm a Diesel Locomotive
Deal with this runaway
Now did you think I'd just fly away
Keep a tight lip and play the game
No no baby, I ain't join away
Cause I'm a Diesel Locomotive
Deal with this runaway
I'm a Diesel Locomotive, I'm a Bullet Train
Impact hitting like a hurricane
And when you see me common, just get out of the way
Cause I'm a Diesel Locomotive
Deal with this runaway
I'm a Diesel Locomotive OH YES I AM!
I'm a Diesel Locomotive, no cabose for McKay

Bring on the night
(Adams, Macre)
Up at the sunrise
First crack of dawn
Sailing these waters
Singing this song
Sha La La La sunrise
Bring on the night
Sometimes when I look into my eyes
I think of life with a smile
Breathing, Loving,
The Miracle mile
Minute by minute
Makes life worthwhile
Sha La La La sunrise
Bring on the night
Solo (J. A.)
Sha La La La
Sha La La La
I don't see a battle
Dad won the war
Hey, cn you feel that,
there's no before.
Peace like a river
A call to restore
and in the end
Bring on the night
Sha La La La sunrise
Sha La La La La La…La la
Solo (R.W.)

Drag it down
(Macre)
It really seemed like the perfect plan, the battle had been won.
Aeroplanes, subsidized and lying in the sun.
Uncle Bill created the bill to see it be redone.
Did you think that three from five would bring the number one?
Drag it down, Drag it down
Drag it down, Drag it down
Drag it down thru the mud
I guess you thought my rocking chair was keeping me behind
Man, the scenery was nice when I just went back in time
Came back for another round with licks I left behind
That kind of chemistry is something you won't find
Drag it down, Drag it down
Drag it down, Drag it down
Drag it down thru the mud
Solo
A little birdie on your shoulder told lies that we should fight
Just keep on pushing buttons and you know it just ain't right
Now I'm seeing green green grass just a step outside my door
Excuse me mister, ain't no resistor that can hold me back no more
Drag it down, Drag it down
Drag it down, Drag it down
Drag it down thru the mud
Solo

Slo Ryder
(Macre)
Saw it in Cali.The San Francisco way'
47 Caddi. Window display.
You know he had to take it home that day.
That thirst for crawln' just won't go away.
Better stay back, better stay backWatch that
Slow Ryder, he'll be there shortly
Slow Ryder, the cat is on his way
Then came the rainbow, shinnin' on the bay.
So what's the hurry, relax with untie Jane
My shadow's calling, It just won't go away.
Mulberry moonshine, watch him crawl away.
Better stay back, better stay back Watch that
Slow Ryder, he'll be there shortly
Slow Ryder, the cat is on his way
Lost in his hometown, trying to find a way.
He's not the brightest diamond in the cse.
Ain't never rattled if it takes all day.
You know he's com in. Trust me when I say
Better stay back, better stay backWatch that
Slow Ryder, he'll be there shortly
Slow Ryder, the cat is on his way..

Safety in Numbers

Safety in numbers
There's so many people
Going to the races
They paint on their faces
And smile
They watch the days fly by
And don't even ask why
Meanwhile
The world that surrounds them
Looks whithered and half dead
And even your own head's been there
You feel the depression
And join the procession
Nowhere
As you march in the madness
You crawl with the sadness
That you might not leave the parade
While the drummers are pounding
You hear this astounding voice say:
"Don't fear
Come here
Don't cry
Stand by
There's safety in numbers
And numbers don't lie
Don't lie"
As the troops keep progressing
You notice you've fallen behind
And you're calling in fear
But they're just too caught up
In the way they've been brought up to here
You halt for a minute
And consider this strange voice
Could this be your choice to lead?
You hold the depression
And watch the procession procede
As the stranger gets nearer
His image gets clearer
He calls out and you hear him say
"You've issued a May Day
And May will be home for the day
So
Don't fear
Come here
Don't cry
Stand by
There's safety in numbers
And numbers don't lie
Don't lie"
To yourself when yourself is
Telling you that you're all
That you have so just listen to
You
So exit the madness
And enter the gladness
And you will become quite aware
You can end the depression
And join the procession somewhere
And
"Don't fear
Come here
Don't cry
Stand by
There's safety in numbers
And numbers don't lie
Don't lie"

You Can't take it with you
(Macre)S
aw something special pass my way
The Major Captain down by the bay
She saw it common down the hallway
Listen to me By the way
If you can't take it with youYou better leave it alone
You can't take it with you
You got to leave it alone
.It's not my business not for free
Find me a prison a lock and a key
You say it's simple I say you're mad
If you don't believe me, ask my dad.
Because you can't take it with you
You better leave it alone
You can't take it with you
You got to leave it alone.
Is there a reason that you're telling me this?
I guess I'm guilty of being remiss.
As the clock ticks down and it's on the line,
call my number anytime.
SoloT
his fine apparel has had a long day.
The crowd was pushin and heading my way
I fought for freedom I fought for trueI
I guess the truth is there ain't no re do's.
Because you can't take it with you
You better leave it alone
You can't take it with you
You got to leave it alone.
Take me home.

At the Roadhouse
(Palumbo)
At the Roadhouse everybody comes to play.
At the Roadhouse you better log your soul away.
Take a load off brother let me buy you a beer
but just don't try to tell me why you're sitting here.
Celebrate this fine cuisine,
I got a twenty dollar bill says you're as lonely as me.
It's a dead end of a place but you know I'll be here, yes I'll be here
At the Roadhouse my dear.
Solo
At the Roadhouse everybody comes to play.
You'd better throw all your dreams away.
Play number seven, It's a Hank Williams tune.
Man I love it when he does them old twangy blues.
Pour me a cold one, Chuck and one for that girl with
the nose bleed shoes and the K Mart pearls.
It's a bad dream of a place but you know I'll be here,
yes I'll be here
At the Roadhouse my dear.

If I Only had a brain
(Arlen, Harburg)
Produced by Jim Griffiths
I could while away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers,
Consulting with the rain;
And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts are busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
I'd unravel ev'ry riddle for my
Individdle
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts that you'll be thinkin'
You could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain.
Oh, I, could tell you why
The oceans near the shore
I could think of things I'd never
Thunk before,
And then I'd…

Goodbye
(Lennon/McCartney)
Please don't make me wait too late tomorrow comes and I will not be late
Late to day when it becomes tomorrow I willLeave to go a-way
Goodbye... Goodbye...Goodbye, Goodbye, my love, Goodbye
Songs that lingered on my lips excite me now and linger on my mind
Leave your &owers at my door I'll leave them forThe one who waits behind
Goodbye... Goodbye...Goodbye, Goodbye, my love, Goodbye
Far away my lover sings a lonely songAnd calls me to her side
When a song of lonely love invites me onI must go to her side
Goodbye... Goodbye...Goodbye, Goodbye, my love, Goodbye.
