My Way
04:46

Sittin' at the station waiting on a train to take me out of this town
Air is stale and I can't breathe, ain't no use in hangin' around
No use in hangin' around
If I don't leave soon there's gonna be hell to pay
I'm gonna do it my way or no way at all
I'm doin' it my way or no way at all
All around my hometown, nobody cares what happens to me
But as soon as they need help those very same people won't let me be
They won't let me be
No one listens to what I've got to say
I'm gonna do it my way or no way at all
I'm doin' it my way or no way at all
Sittin' at the station waiting on a train to take me out of this town
Air is stale and I can't breathe, ain't no use in hangin' around
No use in hangin' around
If I don't leave soon there's gonna be hell to pay
Cuz nobody listens to what I've got to say
I'm gonna do it my way or no way at all
I'm doin' it my way or no way at all
I'm doin' it my way or no way at all
Gotta do it my way or no way at all
I'm doin' it my way, my way, my way, my way

Indifference
03:44
|
|||
How many times must we walk down the same old street?
Corrupt get away with murder while the innocent take the heat
As the world crumbles around you, you sit on the fence
But I just can't stand your indifference, your indifference
How many lives must be lost before we set things right?
I don't even know how you can sleep at night
Livin' in your little bubble, you ain't got no defense
And I just can't stand your indifference, your indifference
The world crumbles around you, you sit on the fence
And I just can't stand your indifference
I ain't gonna stop now, I'm swingin' for the fence
But I just can't stand your indifference
Your indifference
Your indifference
Your indifference

Above & Below
04:17
|
|||
This world has got me so confused
Innocent people dying in the streets every time I see the news
Those who swore to protect and serve
Are the same ones on my television, say, "Boy got what he deserved."
We've come so far, got a long way to go
Until that day comes we're all above and below
Dig this
They say some things will never change
Even when the script gets flipped and the set gets rearranged
We'd rather argue, fuss and fight
Than stand up for our fellow man and fight for what is right
We've come so far, got a long long way to go
Until that day comes we're all above and...
Above and below
Above and below, above and below
Above and below, above and below
We've come so far, got a long way to go
Until that day comes, we're all above and...
Above and below, above and below
Above and below

Bright Side
05:21
|
|||
When the world seems cold and you've got nowhere to go
You wanna run and hide
When you can't find a way to make it through another day
And you fall to the dark side
Let the light shine in, get back up again
Turn a loss into a win
Take it all in stride when you look on the bright side
Look on the bright side
I know how you feel, you've got a wound that doesn't heal
It's hard to swallow your pride
But when you make amends you might just turn enemies into friends
And then you turn the tide
You wanna run away, nothing can make stay
You can live to fight another day
When you let hope provide and look on the bright side
Look on the bright side
You look back on where you've been
Find comfort in your skin
You remember how to win
Learn to live again
You let the light shine in, you get back up again
You turn a loss into a win
When you let hope provide and look on the bright side
Look on the bright side
Look on the bright side
Look on the bright side
Just look on the bright side

Ain't Your Daddy's Blues
04:30
|
|||
Listen up people, it's time to spread the news
Listen up people, it's time to spread the news
That there's a new sound goin' down
And it ain't your daddy's blues
Well you know I do love the classics
But it ain't 1955
We gotta keep on movin' if we're gonna keep these blues alive
Listen here people, it's time to spread the news
That there's a new sound goin' down
And it ain't your daddy's blues
The blues came from the country, then they moved on downtown
In this world we're livin' it's up to us to keep these blues around
Listen here people, it's time to spread the news
That there's a new sound goin' down
And it ain't your daddy's blues
Well the blues came from the country, then it moved on downtown
In this brave new world we're livin'
It's up to you and me to keep these blues around
Listen here people, it's time to spread the news
Oh listen here people, it's time to spread the news
That there's a new sound goin' down
And it ain't your daddy's blues
Said it ain't your daddy's blues
It's time to spread the news
It ain't your daddy's blues
It's time to spread the news
That there's a new sound goin' down
And it ain't your daddy's blues

I Can't Sleep
04:30
|
|||
Staring up at the ceiling, it's been so long since the sun when down
My mind's got me reeling, walls don't make no sound
I can't shake this feeling that I'll soon be in the ground
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should die I'd be in too deep
I can't sleep
Can't stop yet, still got so far to go
Time keeps on slipping' (slippin' slippin')
Can't afford to take it slow
Cuz nobody knows when their blood runs cold
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I'd be in too deep
I can't sleep
Staring up at the ceiling, it's been so long since the sun went down
My mind's got me reeling, these walls don't make no sound
I can't shake this feeling that I'll soon be in the ground
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should die I'd be in too deep
I can't sleep
I can't sleep
I can't sleep
I can't sleep
I can't sleep

Way Down South
04:50
|
|||
I'm goin' way down south, gon' take the winding road
I'm goin' way down south, gon' take the winding road
There ain't no telling just how far down I might go
I'm making my own way, you know I've got to be free
I'm making my own way, you know I've got to be free
I'm chasing my dreams while my demons chase me
Now I've been way down south, my time done came and went
Now I've been way down south, my time done came and went
From now on my road map will be heaven sent
From now on my road map will be heaven sent
From now on my road map will be heaven sent

Whole Lotta Soul
03:57
|
|||
I may not have a lot of money
I don't drive a fancy car
But there's one thing I've got a lot of
And it always takes me far
I gotta whole lotta soul
A whole lotta soul
Something that'll never grow old
It's a whole lotta soul
Life can be so complicated
You barely have time to breathe
This thing helps you stop and smell the roses
And it delivers sweet relief
I gotta whole lotta soul
A whole lotta soul
Something that'll never grow old
I gotta whole lotta soul
Jimi and James had the power
Marvin, Prince and Curtis too
They all had that thing in common
And they passed it down to me and you
They had a whole lotta soul
A whole lotta soul
It's something that'll never grow old
I gotta whole lotta soul
A whole lotta soul
A whole lotta soul
It's something that'll never grow old
It's a whole lotta soul
