Lyrics


1. THICKFREAKNESS

Here I am, I'm not here now, no, no, no
And I'll care for you - hey that's all I want to do
Hold me, love me, in your heart
And I'll hold you near and I'll whisper in your ear
I'll take your hand and I'll make you understand
Hold me, love me in your heart


2. HARD ROW

If you wanna go and leave your man
Go on, I'll understand
But then the night gets dark, all is still
Pray for me, I know you will
Hard row to hoe all by yourself

You hit the city, it swallow you whole
You got no friends darling, to satisfy your soul
And then the sidewalk ends, lights all red,
You say to yourself, you're better off dead
Hard row to hoe all by yourself

Walk out on me, walk out on him
You need no man to do you in
But if the night gets dark, all is still
I'll pray for you, you know I will
Hard row to hoe all by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself


3. SET YOU FREE

You hold on to love that's gone
Run a mile to see him smile
But you don't know
He's door to door playing you for the fool

Let him go walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free

Now you know there you go back to him
He's gonna do you in tear you down
And run you around
Treat you wrong and then you're gone

Let him go walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free

You hold on to love that's gone
Run a mile to see him smile
But you don't know he's door to door
Playing you for the fool

Let him go walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free

I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free


4. MIDNIGHT IN HER EYES

Midnight In her eyes
Midnight is in her eyes
Tear drops like a child
You never thought about going wrong
Now you wonder where your man has gone

Midnight is in her eyes
Lately you're feeling low
Heartache on the floor
Your manic ways have got the best of you
But your heart is gonna see you through

Lately, you're feeling low
I see her everywhere
Long amber hair
Calling out my name
I'm calling just the same

Midnight is in her eyes
Tear drops like a child
You never thought about going wrong
Now you wonder where your man has gone
Midnight is in her eyes


5. HAVE LOVE WILL TRAVEL

If you need loving, oh baby I travel

I travel from Maine down to Mexico
To find that girl that loves me so
No matter where I ‘ll be, I find that girl and she satisfy me

Have love, will travel
Have love, will travel
If you need loving, oh baby I travel
If you need loving, oh baby I travel

I might take a boat, I might take a plane
I might hitch-hike or jump a railroad-train
Your kind of love drive a man insane
So look for me walking just any old way

Have love, will travel
Have love, will travel
If you need loving, oh baby I travel
If you need loving, oh baby I travel


6. HURT LIKE MINE

How you hurt me, oh how you cause me pain
Well hurt like mine you could never, never understand
Never understand
I remember the tears were in my eyes
River town is burning, the clouds they roll on by, roll on by
She said I'm alright if you're hanging on
Be your shoulder, lay your troubles on, your troubles on.


7. EVERYWHERE I GO

Well everywhere I go, ain't got a thing to do
I got a thing for you
Well everywhere I go, ain't got a thing to do
I got a thing for you

Now little baby, now let me tell you what I'm going to do
Now little baby, now let me tell you what I'm going to do
And everywhere I go, ain't got a thing to do
I got a thing for you

And everywhere I go, ain't got a thing to do
I got a thing for you


8. NO TRUST

She wanna get outta the car in the middle of the road
And her screaming and hollering is getting mighty old
She check every paper when you step out the room

Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you

She want a simple life
She need a simple man
That don't drink or smoke darling
Play in a rock & roll band
Oh, but she want you to hold her at night when she’s lonely and blue

Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you

Yeah she's a beautiful gal when she wanna be
But if you told her so darling, she'd just disagree
Oh, she hates your job and what you want him to do

Ain't go no trust in your mama
Ain't got no trust in your daddy
Ain't got no trust in your sister
And she ain't got trust in you


9. IF YOU SEE ME

If you see me coming open up your door
If you see me coming open up your door
I'll give you more loving than any man before
When I hit your door, better treat me right
When I hit your door, better treat me right
Oh, I need you baby
Got no time to
I'll do for you, I'm gonna do for you
If you do for me, I'm gonna do for you
I'll be your man
If you ask me-


10. HOLD ME IN YOUR ARMS

I need you, need you by my side
Lonely evenings, eyes are open wide
Nothing you say could make me turn my back
Well I see you, and you see me too
Moon is rising, night will be here soon
Follow me, and lay down in my room
Hold me, hold me in your arms
Well now heal me, heal me with your touch
Your touch keeps me hanging on


11. I CRY ALONE

My girl, my girl had a hold on me
So tight, so tight that I could not see
Girl, she had a hold on me, she held so tight that I could not see
My girl, my girl had a hold on me
One day, one day I let her go
It hurt, it hurt so, you'll never know
The day I had to let her go, it hurt so bad that you cannot know
One day, one day I let her go.
At night, at night I cry alone
I weep, I weep 'til the early morn'
At night, I cry alone, I weep all night, 'til the early morn'
At night, at night I cry alone
