Beggarman 2019 Release 05:31
lyrics
buy track
Realize, the look in his eyes how he must have wondered He worked hard all his life to buy him a wife, and grab the thunder Never thought he'd be so distraught only ten years later He'd lose his job and his home, his wife on the phone, his alma mater What will he be? A Beggarman Just come and see the Beggarman The city's cold, especially the old have to fight to stay warm You wanna save your life? You carry a knife: Another night in the jungle What will it be? Will you ever be free from the chains that bind ya? You know that finally one day you'll break away and find utopia But how will it end? A Beggarman A new beginning? Beggarman I can work and be strong! If I can, I'm a man! I can never go wrong! I'll never be a Beggarman! I can work to be strong! I know I can ... I'm a man! I will never go wrong! I will never be a Beggarman! Welcome to America! Land of the free You do what you want to do Including sleep in the streets Education and the motivation – Movin' up the ladder You got to drink the best wine and score ya a line, then the next day after Cold shiver, you look in the mirror and you see what you want to see But the mirror don't lie: Look in your eyes! G'bye reality! What will you be? A Beggarman Oh, can't you see the Beggarman? And now you see the Beggarman Why must you be the Beggarman? Will he ever be free? the Beggarman No, no, no, don't you be The Beggarman!

Comin' Round Again 02:26
lyrics

Here she comes again; she springs in the room Singing loudly now, but nothing’s in tune What can I tell her; that it’s all not meant to be? She’s the one that did it; fell in love with me, yeah... Comin’ ‘round again How can I tell her that she’s just not the one How can I break it to her; havin’ so much fun When will she stop, why must she please? Why must we go on, please, no social disease! Comin’ ‘round again! Comin’ ‘round again, she’s comin’ round again Now she spends her days just hangin’ ‘round the shop What can I do? I cannot seem to make her stop! Why can’t she see? I’ll call her bluff! Am I the only one in here that’s old enough? Ah, made another friend; she’s comin’ ‘round again Made another friend; she’s comin’ ‘round again Ah! Comin’ ‘round again....comin’ ‘round and ‘round yeah!

It's Only Love 04:13
lyrics
buy track
I thought of love, but love never thought of me ‘till you came along and your touch knocked me off my feet I felt the sweat when you called out my name ‘cause we’ve never met: Explain! It’s only love Trust what you feel if it makes you happy It’s only love Be my heart, be my soul Be my guest, lose control, it’s only love You and your big ideas – Don’t you know love can rob you blind? Love destroys it all – Nothing else can make you lose your mind But when she held out her hand to me That funny feeling began again It’s only love Trust what you feel; we can make it happen It’s only love Be my heart, be my soul Be yourself; lose control! It’s only love I hear, but don’t listen My love is meant to be given Am I scared of love or is love scared of me? If it takes forever, I’m gonna try; gonna learn to love before I die Been hurt before and it won’t happen again How can I be sure she’s not a “fair weather friend”? What can it be that’s got a hold of me? Would you explain it again and again! It’s only love Trust what you feel if it makes you happy It’s only love Nothing to fear if you let it happen It’s only love It’s for real, it’s for keeps – it’s for you, it’s for me It’s only love

Havin' a Baby! 03:45
lyrics
buy track
It’s drivin’ me crazy All the things I try to make it fly, you see Drawn out or too busy? All I wanted was to sell a rhyme or three Ridin’ down the longer road... I can’t spare the time Havin’ a Baby – It’s time to unwind Havin’ a Baby – It’s my turn to shine, yeah If you want it bad, you sacrifice You gotta stay with it; this is my advice I try to recover I look around and see the mailman is finally here I rush to discover a stack of bills and a catalog from sears Ridin’ down the winding road We need to ride a straight line We need then in the air before they get old We need them played all the time! (Chorus) Always doin’ what your daddy sold ya Be a doctor or a pantomime Do what your mama told ya: Sell a song; everything will turn out just fine If you want it bad, I’ll tell you twice You gotta stay with it; this is my advice Drivin’ me crazy! All the things I try to make it fly, you see I can’t be that lazy All I wanted was originality Riding down the longer road We need to ride a freight line We need to get ‘em sold before they get old and have them played all the time!

New Direction 03:15
lyrics
buy track
I can tell something’s wrong with us lately - Can’t you see what is going on? When you look in my eyes, should come as no surprise: The love we had once is gone Hold still - Darling stop you’re crying - Wasn’t written in stone I’m looking for a new direction I’m looking for someone who can show me I’m looking for some new affection I’m looking for someone who can hold me We’ll be fine, be fine on our own - Breaking up is not a sin We’ve stepped too far into the dangerous zone Who knows what; maybe we’ll grow up and need a friend? Can’t you see? - There’s no use in trying - Should’ve left him alone! Now, I’m looking for a new direction I’m looking for someone who can show me I’m looking for some new affection I’m looking for someone who can hold me – Hold me! How’s it feel to belong to him baby? - Furs and diamonds; your celebrity? Guess what? There’s one thing you might’ve forgot: How you once fell for me! But, Now I’m looking for a new direction I’m looking for someone who can show me I’m looking for some new affection I’m looking for someone who can hold me I’m looking for some new affection I’m looking for someone - someone who can hold me! I’m looking for a new direction I’m looking for someone who can show me: What the new direction is

Out in the Streets 03:24
lyrics
buy track
It's hard to see through eyes that water And it's hard to cling to broken dreams Yes, they’re all God’s children - Son's and Daughter’s Strives for work, begs for food; cries to sleep We push them out – Out in the streets Some spend their nights praying Some spend their lives getting high And to most it's a lost situation To work so hard just to get by We push them out – Out in the streets They cross our comfort zone and so we run away to hide Back to our status quo We close our eyes while many others die! You may think you're immune and this couldn’t happen – Happen to you But you see you and me are human too We push them out – Out in the streets (Repeat) Push ‘em out, push ‘em out – Out in the streets

I can see the fire in your eyes Desires burning deep You keep it under cover... ‘cause somebody says there’s danger outside I can see that fire.. And I’m burning too, but I’m gonna break through, cause Baby, I need a lover like you I know you need one too Baby, we’ve got nothing to lose So, don’t you hold back your love tonight Gonna steal that moment... And put the wings on a dream that’ll take us higher! There’s no rules to break here Just take what you want, ‘cause its love that you need! Gonna steal that moment.. I hope that you see. . It’s time to believe, that.. Baby, I need a lover like you I know you need one too Lady, we’ve got nothing to lose So don’t you hold back your love tonight! Baby, I need a lover like you I know you need one too Maybe we’ve got nothing to lose So don’t you hold back your love Don’t you hold back that love Baby, I need a lover like you I know you need one too Lady, we’ve got nothing to lose So don’t you hold back that love Baby, I need a lover like you I know you need one too Maybe we’ve got nothing to lose So don’t you hold back your love Don’t you hold back your love tonight

Watercat 04:05
lyrics
buy track
You've got a way to receive what you seek Don't give it away, hold on please; it won't become obsolete Don't hesitate, just believe in what you see The clouds dissipate on the eve of the first catastrophe This is the day of the Watercat Where there's a will there's a way; think of the Watercat Never so brave when you fought all the monsters A permanent wave with the sword of Excalibur (Chorus) All the others find they get no peace of mind hiding from fate and their fears If they'd turn around, face up to what they found; they would be laughing for years So don't be afraid of your dreams or the darkness Cast them away with the team of your smile and confidence Like the wolverine, you can take on anyone A pair of twos; you bluff the gambler… Tip your hat to everyone (Chorus) You're finally free to believe in yourself A special decree from the bold and courageous (Chorus) When you think of brave: Think of the Watercat She's never afraid; think of the Watercat Where there's a will there's a way!

Saturday Night 03:33
lyrics

Saturday; why does it take so long? Summer fun days; workin’ where you don’t belong Break away, stand up and make it happen Pull the lines in; get ready, ‘cause you are the captain This is your Saturday This is your Saturday This is your Saturday night Saturday feels like a nice vacation Then comes Monday; you put on the hats of reason Try and wear them; come on show off all those pearly whites You can’t hide them waiting for the crowds and the lights This is your Saturday This is your Saturday This is your Saturday night Look all around; look up at the blue skies They won’t let you down, not if you don’t say Just look for the sound The sound of a wave crashing in a new day Saturday yeah, why must I wait so long? I can feel it coming, the anticipation Any wonder if I’m ever gonna see the light Hear the thunder of midnight This is your Saturday This is your Saturday This is your Saturday night Your Saturday night
