Cocaine

(J. J. Cale)

If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out, cocaine.
If you wanna get down, down on the ground, cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie, cocaine.

If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues, cocaine.
When your day is done and you wanna run, cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie, cocaine.

If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on, cocaine.
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back, cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie, cocaine.

She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie, cocaine.

Wonderful Tonight

(Eric Clapton)

It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

Lay Down Sally

(Marcy Levy — Eric Clapton — George Terry)

There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me.
I know you've got somewhere to go
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

The sun ain't nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars above.
Underneath the velvet skies
Love is all that matters; won't you stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

I long to see the morning light
Coloring your face so dreamily.
So don't you go and say goodbye,
You can lay your worries down and stay with me.
And don't you ever leave.

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

Next Time You See Her

(Eric Clapton)

She's got everything a man could ever ask for.
She is lovely, brighter than a morning star.
She is so beautiful, portrait of a sunset.
She got everything, including my old car.

Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time you see her, tell her that I care.
Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time I see you, boy you'd better beware.

I'm just trying to warn you that you're bound to get hurt.
I couldn't be her last love, so how could you be her first?
I want to tell you, buddy, things are bound to get rough.
I know that she's only flirting, but I think that I've had enough.

Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time you see her, tell her that I care.
Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time I see you, boy you'd better beware.

And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.
And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.

Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time you see her, tell her that I care.
Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time I see you, boy you'd better beware.

And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.
And if you see her again, I will surely kill you.

Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time you see her, tell her that I care.
Next time you see her, tell her that I love her.
Next time I see you, boy you'd better beware.

We're All the Way

(Don Williams)

There's no cause to think that I won't stay;
Haven't I been with you all the way?
There's no time like now to make amends.
After all we are more than friends.

This could be the time for you and me.
We could go wherever we should be.
So don't put words between us we shouldn't say,
And don't be acting halfway
When you know we're all the way.

There are times when I don't see the light,
And I don't know if what I do is right.
But when I'm wrong it's never meant for you,
So don't confuse my love with what I do.

This could be the time for you and me.
We could go wherever we should be.
So don't put words between us we shouldn't say,
And don't be acting halfway
When you know we're all the way.

The Core

(Marcy Levy — Eric Clapton)

Every morning when I wake
A feeling soon begins to overtake me
Ringing in my ears resounds through my brain, it finally surrounds me
There is fire, there is life
There is passion, fever and fury
There is love and there is hate
There is longing, anger and worry

Oh, I am the flame, feel it touch my heart
And down at my core is the hottest part
I can burn without fuel


If it should become too cold
I know I can endure the frostbite
Ooh, a blanket then I'll wrap around me
I keep myself so close to my side
Well, no one then can cause me harm
Just as the river runs into the sea
Because every day, your fire alarm
Is deafening the silence all around me

Oh, I am the flame, feel it touch my heart
And down at my core is the hottest part
I can burn without fuel

Oh, it's burning
Yes, it's burning

Ah, you can trust me, we can laugh
Together, we can share our sorrow
And I will give you secrets too
An attitude that you may borrow
A gypsy woman said to me
One thing you must bear in your mind
You are young and you are free
But damned if you're deceased in your own lifetime

Oh, you have a flame, feel it in your heart
And down at my core is the hottest part
We can run without fuel

It's burning
Forever, it's burning

May You Never

(John Martyn)

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
May you never lose your temper, if you get hit in a barroom fight
May you never lose your woman overnight

Well, you're just like a great, strong sister to me
And I know that your love is true
And you hold no blade for to stab me in my back
I know that there's some that do

So please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind?
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please, won't you please bear it in mind for me?

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
May you never lose your temper, if you get hit in a barroom fight
May you never lose your woman overnight

Well, you're just like a great, strong brother to me
And I know that your love is true
And you never talk dirty behind my back
I know that there's some that do

So please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind?
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please, won't you please bear it in mind for me?

May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
May you never lose your temper, if you get hit in a barroom fight
May you never lose your woman overnight

May you never lose your woman overnight
May you never lose your woman overnight

Mean Old Frisco

(Arthur Crudup)

Well that mean old dirty Frisco
And that low down Santa Fe
Mean old Frisco
And that low down Santa Fe
You know they take my girl away
Lord, and blow back out on me

Well my mama, she done told me
And my papa told me too
Mama told me
And my papa told me too
A woman that gets in your face
Lord, she ain't no friend for you

Well, I'm going away now baby
And I won't be back until fall
Going away, baby
Lord, I won't be back till fall
If I don't come back by then
Lord, I won't be back at all

Well that mean old dirty Frisco
And that low down Santa Fe
Mean old Frisco
And that low down Santa Fe
You know they take my girl away
Lord, and blow back out on me
