A Fine Day
Got a letter in the mail today, it said I drove too fast and now I’ve got to pay, and don’t delay!
Too many people said it wasn’t them, but they’ve got pictures including the time and day, nothing more to say!
They’ve got my picture, now I’ve got to go and pay
First I gotta sign to say that I did it, then I’ve got a choice either fight or suck it in, you just can’t win!
Twenty eight days to get my money there, or they’ll take me to court and put me in with the crimms, I got the money in!
They’ve got my picture, now I’ve got to go and pay
They’ve got my picture, now I’ve got to go and pay
I paid my hundred in and got a number out, now they want my licence so they can kick it about, ain’t no doubt
And when they’ve done with me they’ll be looking for you, hiding out and making more money it’s what they do, you know it’s true!
Storm Brewing
Instrumental
Storm Over The Horizon
There’s a storm over the horizon
I can’t see it but I know its there
There’s a storm over the horizon
Hiding low so you can’t see it there
And when it makes its move its coming right to my front door
Gonna keep on hiding way out there
Keep me thinking that it’s gone away
It’s gonna keep on hiding way out there
It’s just sitting there waiting for its day
And when it makes its move its coming right to my front door
Ain’t no use running down the road
It’ll chase me down wherever I go
Ain’t no use running down the road
You just gotta let that big wind blow
And when it makes its move its coming right to my front door
There’s a storm over the horizon
I can’t see it but I know its there
There’s a storm over the horizon
And every day it gets a little closer to my front door
Living In The Aftermath
You came into my life at the speed of the wind
Suddenly you are all I can see
My life had changed in the blink of an eye
You had me so completely
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
You took me into the eye of your storm
The focus of everything I do
I must have been week when you came along
And everything was so new
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
The storm is over and you’re no longer here
I can be glad about that
You left a trail of destruction behind
I’m living in the aftermath
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
I’m living in the wreckage you left behind
I’m living in the aftermath
Miss You
I’ve got your picture on my phone
And there’s another one I see when I get home
I’ve got your picture on my phone
And there’s another one I see when I get home
I’m always thinking of you and the things that you do, I miss you
I Know you’re never coming back
And nothing I do could ever change that
I Know you’re never coming back
And nothing I do would ever change that
I’m always thinking of you and the things that you do, I miss you
I’ve got to get up and move on
Can’t let the past stop me singing my song
I’ve got to get up and move on
Can’t let the past stop me singing my song
I’m always thinking of you and the things that you do, I miss you
I’ve got your picture on my phone
But now your number’s gone and you don’t have a tone
I’ve got your picture on my phone
But now your number’s gone and you don’t have a tone
I’m always thinking of you and the things that you do, I miss you
Waiting For The News
I’m standing in the shadow, of who I used to be
I’m waiting for the next fight, I’m waiting for the news
I have seen the lightening, I have heard the thunder, I have felt the hurricane
I don’t have a shelter, she keeps me from going under, keeps my head above the pain
Two weeks never felt so long before, this is the hardest part to take
And while I’m waiting for the news, life’s left me in its wake
I have seen the lightening, I have heard the thunder, I have felt the hurricane
I don’t have a shelter, she keeps me from going under, keeps my head above the pain
I have seen the lightening, I have heard the thunder, I have felt the hurricane
I don’t have a shelter, she keeps me from going under, keeps my head above the pain
I have seen the lightening, I have heard the thunder, I have felt the hurricane
I don’t have a shelter, she keeps me from going under, keeps my head above the pain
Here She Comes Again
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Creeping up on me when I look the other way
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
She’s so irresistible I can’t say no
Keep away from me I was doing alright
Keep away from me, don’t want you in my life
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Making her plans and messing with my life
Keep away from me I was doing alright
Keep away from me, don’t want you in my life
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Once she gets a hold on you she’ll bring you down
Keep away from me I was doing alright
Keep away from me, don’t want you in my life
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Flashing those eyes and inflicting her pain
Keep away from me I was doing alright
Keep away from me, don’t want you in my life
Keep away from me I was doing alright
Keep away from me, don’t want you in my life
Here she comes again
Here she comes again
Creeping up on me when I look the other way
Keep away from me I was doing alright
Keep away from me, don’t want you in my life
I Got You
The Sun is cold and I cannot feel his flame
He’s going south to play in another game
But I’ve got you to keep me warm at night
And you’ve got me to make you feel alright
The leaves are coming down ’cause autumn’s in their veins
Frosty’s on the way I can feel his coldness bite
But I’ve got you to keep me warm at night
And you’ve got me to make you feel alright
Winter’s coming his coat all white and cool
I don’t care if his days are short and cruel
’cause I’ve got you to keep me warm at night
And you’ve got me to make you feel alright
Spring will come and wash all the blues away
Every day is longer as the sun comes back to play
And I’ve got you to keep me warm at night
And you’ve got me to make you feel alright
The sun is high again and I feel his flame
Summer’s back and it will all begin again
And I’ve got you to keep me warm at night
And you’ve got me to make you feel alright
My Life Is Fine
I’ve got a house in the sticks
It’s where I get my kicks
I write a bit of paper and record some licks
Yeah my life is fine
Yeah my life is fine
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
There’s always beer in the fridge and there’s wine on the rack
Food on the table and a car out back
So my life is fine
Yeah my life is fine
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
Everybody gets it rough, doesn’t matter if you’re tough
I’ve had my share of problems and that kind of stuff
But my life is fine
Yeah my life is fine
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
You can’t sit and watch the news, you’re gonna get the blues
You gotta get out there go wear out your shoes
And my life is fine
Yeah my life is fine
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
Don’t let them take your dreams, nothing’s ever what it seems
I think I’m gonna win but its all in my dreams
But my life is fine
Yeah my life is fine
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
I gotta woman whose mine, she’s always looking fine
She’s got a way of doing things that blows my mind
Yeah my life is fine
Yeah my life is fine
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
I said my life is fine and I’m taking all the time I want
Steamroller
We all have to use the same old road
Some people are fast and some are slow
I’ve got a secret weapon that you can’t see
It’s making the road dead flat for me
A lot of people can’t see the bumps and holes
They don’t understand you’ve got to smooth the road
I’ve got a secret weapon that you can’t see
It’s making the road dead flat for me
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
You’ve got to move over for someone to pass
Got to make more effort to get top of the class
I’ve got a secret weapon that you can’t see
It’s making the road dead flat for me
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
Don’t get in my way I’ve got places to go
I can’t stay behind you if you go too slow
I’ve got a secret weapon that you can’t see
It’s making the road dead flat for me
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
I’ve got a steamroller
And you don’t want to get in my way
Oh My
We used to go and play on the building site
Police came along and gave us such a fright
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
I got a load of apples of a neighbours tree
My friend got caught and put them on to me
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
I went to work in a shop, still at school
The money they paid me made me look a fool
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
I had a college girlfriend when I got a car
Her father didn’t like it if we went too far
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
I got a job working for the man on site
But all they want to do all day is kick and fight
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
I went to the doctor said there’s something wrong
He said I could be right, he hadn’t been there long
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
I went to the hospital to get fixed up
They said I’ll be ok if I get some luck
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
Oh my, I need to get away from here
Oh my oh my I think I need to get away from here
Pippa’s Song
Instrumental
Close Your Eyes
It’s like an eighteen wheeler bearing down on you
You’re standing there rooted, don’t know what to do
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
You need to be afraid to know you’re still alive
It doesn’t mean you’re weak ’cause you want to survive
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
You have to keep on running, be as fast as you can
Keep it under wraps as long as you can
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
There’s nothing you can do, you can’t run away
The beast is inside getting stronger every day
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
When somebody says they think you’re looking good
It doesn’t really matter ’cause they haven’t read the book
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
Time is the enemy, it just marches on
Before you know you’ve had it and your allocation’s gone
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
You need to be afraid to know you’re still alive
It doesn’t mean you’re weak ’cause you want to survive
But if you close your eyes everything will be alright
Starting
There’s a piece of paper and a pen in my hand
I don’t know where to start and I don’t know if I can
I’m wondering if I should or even if I ought
It’s always so hard to sing about your thoughts
It’s so hard
My feet are heavy as lead so I kick off my shoes
Learn to play the guitar, maybe sing the blues
I wrote a lot of stuff way back in ’74
I don’t know why I kept it, I don’t know what it’s for
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
You never know what to say, it’s hard to make a start
But it really doesn’t matter if it’s coming from the heart
You want to make it rough? Maybe sing about a girl
She might not see it your way, better sing about the world
It’s so hard
All these years have passed, nothing’s quite the same
But I’m still using paper and I can write my name
But when it comes to writing I can’t add it to my cart
I need the words to follow but I don’t know where to start
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
