LYRICS
YAZOO QUEEN
It was a black night
No moon to howl to
Notta’ dime for my mind in sight
Can't get my head right
Famished and edgy
Looking for love
On the brick
Down hearted
Got tunnel vision
Hotter than mid day July
I feel my hands shake
I know what I'm missing
Someone to hold in the night
She fire me up
When she lay me down
Lil ‘Yazoo Queen
Gotta hold on me
Left me at the delta
To drown
Highway sixteen
Rear view showin’ scars
Moonlight drowns out
all of the stars
Something pulses
On my late-night phone
Clouds overhead
Has gone (get up!)
She hit me up
Feeling alright
She flyin’ solo
Call me up for a bite
Now I’m knockin’
She making her move
Time slows to a JUN-GLE GROOVE
She fire me up!
When she lay me down
Yazoo Queen got a hold
On me and left me
In the delta to drown
She fire me up
When she lay me down
Yazoo Queen gotta
Hold on me and
Left me in the delta
Left me in the delta to drown
Left me in the delta to drown
Left me in the delta to drown
Left me in the delta to drown
THE NOMAD
He carried his soul
In his 501 jeans
He smiled at the women
That he wished to tease
He moved like the ocean
To the beat of the band
Shut out the world ‘round him
With a snap o’ his hand
The jealous ones laugh
But they lust from inside
Cuz he glows of Everything
That they fight to hide
He bad!
Don’t be messin’ around
He bad!
Yeah he wear the crown
With a walk like The Devil
And eyes like the stars
The Nomad is fff
To the next waiting bar
Cause he’s BAD!
Best stay out of his way
He quit school
Cuz of recess
Honey he don’t play
Left untouched
And looking for cues
In a circus of people
And smoke filled rooms
His glance lit up
Her hungry heart
And set fire to the midnight
With a generous spark
He bad!
He don’t be, messin’ around
He bad!
When he, he come to town
With a walk like The Devil
And eyes like the stars
The Nomad is off
To the next waiting bar
Cause he’s BAD!
Best stay out of his way
He quit school
Cuz’ of recess
Honey he don’t play
He’s one part Howlin’
Two parts Vaughn
A little dose of Muddy
You better Leave him alone
One part Freddie
Albert too
Big shot of BB
He king of the blues
Cuz He’s baaaaaaad
You best get outta his way
He quit school cuz of recess
Honey He don’t playyyyy
Lost & Lonely
Lost and lonely
That’s what they call me
But I don’t even think
That’s true
I’m locked and loaded
Need you to fire me
Got nothing but time to lose
Gimme a long goodnight
Gimme a feeling so right
Gimme the one that I need
Find me a lover
Make me feel it tonight
Lost and lonely
That’s what they call me
But everybody knows my name
I’m fresh and faded
A man of the world now
Steady steppin up my game
Gimme a long goodnight
Gimme a feeling so right
Gimme the one that I need
Find me a lover
Make me feel it
Gotta get you going
On a Friday night
Fire it up baby
Make me feel it alright

Keep it burning all night
Lost and lonely
Changing that feeling tonight
Changing, changing
Changing that feeling tonight
Gimme a long goodnight
Gimme a feeling so right
Gimme the one that I need
Find me another
Make me feel it Tonight
Changing, changing
Changing that feeling tonight

Muscadine Wine
Praying for a deep love
Looking for a little
help from above
Bring me something that’s real
Something divine
When you’re feeling gone
In bed at night
Wid’ the covers thrown
Ya find yourself on the edge
Of destiny’s dawn
(All alone)
Bring me something that’s real
Something that’s strong
Something that’s mine
Make it sweet as a grape
On a muscadine vine
Let’s make wine
You’ll never find it
At home
Get out there
Where the chances Roam
Another’s searching For love
Searching for time
So divine
Bring me something that’s real
Something that’s strong
Something that’s mine
Make it sweet as a grape
On a muscadine vine
Let’s make wine
Can we make it sweeter baby?
Something special
Lasting all my days
Need a little honey baby
From another baby
No time For living alone
Bring me something that’s real
Something that’s strong
Something that’s mine
Make it sweet as a grape
On a muscadine vine
Let’s make wine
Bring me something that’s real
Something that’s strong
Something that’s mine
Make it sweet as a grape
On a muscadine vine
Let’s make wine
Bring me something that’s real
Something that’s strong
Something that’s mine
Make it sweet as a grape
On a muscadine vine
Let’s make wine
Everybody needs some lovin’
Everybody needs some huggin’
Everybody needs some touchin’
Keep searching
Keep searching

Everybody needs some loving
Life is Grand
Eyes open up before daylight
Jump in the spirit
Of do what’s right
Yesterday’s gone
Tomorrow’s looking bright
Futures untold there’s so much gold
Nothing left to do

Stay on the Grind

Pick it up
Ain’t no way to shortcut
Mama wants this

Prices go up
Lord knows we working
Man on the news
Tells me the deal
Shortage on gas
Lines at the market
Pandemic on us
People suffer
Wages are low
Boy ya know we feel it
Get back! Harder times are coming
Stand strong! They want to see us hurting
Look out! Harder times are coming around
Lies on the tube
They give me the blues
We’re further apart
Got us where they want us

Lend ‘em a hand
The time is now
Love on every corner

Stand strong! They want to see us hurting
Look out! Harder times are coming around
Get back! Harder times are coming
Stand strong! They want to see us hurting
Look out! Harder times are coming around
If you wanna survive
Gotta stay on the grind

Never gonna falter
Ride or die
Gonna put up a fight
People rise up
Love’s still the answer
Get back! Harder times are coming
Stand strong! They want to see us hurting
Look out! Harder times are coming around
Get back! Harder times are coming
Stand strong! They want to see us hurting
Look out! Harder times are coming around

Mean Old World
It’s a mean, mean Old World
It’s a mean, mean Old World
Some folks got it coming
From the bad stuff they
Were running
And every no-good scoundrel
Sees his day
When the city lights go dim
All the angels sing their hymns
As the demons
Fly like bats into the cave
It’s a mean, mean Old World
It’s a mean, mean Old World
Sometimes when you’re able
Ya lay it all on the table
And find yourself some luck
Along the way
Like a soldier home from hell
Sure got a story to tell
Until the beating heart rings
The final bell
It’s a mean, mean Old world
But there’s a flash of light in
Every thunderstorm
Lord our God
Why have we forgotten?
And why must we wander here?
In grief?
Misled by the evil
That surrounds us
Oh they scoff and
They taunt yeah
they flaunt
In misery
We come to thee flesh and bone eternal
Defend us from these thoughts
That penetrate
Rescue us from unjust fools and liars
And fill us with the light
and truth
All over again
It’s a mean, mean Old World
It’s a mean, mean Old World
It’s a mean, mean Old World
With a flash of light in every thunderstorm….
