DIRTY POOL
(WRitten BY SRV & D. Bramhall)
True love is gone
I's been played for a fool
True love is gone
I's been played for a fool
I'm turnin' the tables on you
You've been playin' dirty pool
You said you'd call the shots darlin'
All your friends thought that
was cool
so cool baby
You said you'd call the shots darlin'
All your friends thought that
was so cool
Yeah when you shot at the eight-ball baby
I knew you were playin' dirty
pool
They say that life
Life is a game of give and take
They say that life
Life is a game of give and take
I'm tellin' you one thing right now little baby
I won't be the one to pay for your mistake
LOVE STRUCK BABY
(Written By SRV)
Well I'm love struck baby I must confess
Life without you darlin' is a solid mess
Thinkin' 'bout you baby give me such a thrill
I gotta have you baby....Can't get my fill
I love ya baby an' I know just what to do
I still remember....and let it be said
The way you make me feel it take a fool to forget
I swore a ton of bricks had hit me in the head
And what you do little baby....I ain't over yet
Every time I see ya make me feel so fine
My heart beatin' crazy....My blood runnin' wild
Your lovin' makes me feel like a mighty mighty man
Love me baby ain't I your man
I'm a love struck baby
Yeah I'm a love struck baby
You got me love struck baby
And I know just what to do
Sparks start flyin' every time we meet
Let me tell you baby you knock me off my feet
Your kisses trip me up and they're just doggone sweet
Don't you know baby you can't be beat
I'm a love struck baby
Yeah I'm a love struck baby
You got me love struck baby
And I know just what to do
LIFE BY THE DROP
(Written By D. Bramhall, B. Logan )
Hello there, my old friend
Not so long ago it was 'til the end
We played outside in the pouring rain
On our way up the road we started over again
You're livin' a dream....Wo you on top
My mind is achin'....Lord it won't stop
Thats how it happens....Livin' life by the drop
Up and down that road in our worn out shoes
Talkin' 'bout good things and signin' the blues
You went your way....I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter of time
You're livin a dream....Wo you on top
My mind is achin'....Lord it won't stop
That's how it happens....Livin' life by the drop
No wasted time....We're alive today
Churnin' up the past....There's no easier way
Time's been between us....A means to an end
God it's good to be here walkin' together my friend
You're livin a dream....Wo you on top
My mind is achin'....Lord it won't stop
That's how it happens....Livin' life by the drop
That's how it happens....Livin' life by the drop
That's how it happens....Livin' life by the drop
I'M CRYIN'
(Written By SRV)
Well now sittin' here so lonely....Feelin' oh so blue
My baby's tryin' to mistreat me and I don't know what to do
So I'm cryin'....Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby....I can't live another day
Yeah I've loved her for such a long time...To end it all this way
Sittin' here so lonely....Tears be fallin' just like rain
So I'm cryin'....Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby....I can't live another day
Yeah you know I love you baby...I'll do anything for you
But when we start to fightin'....I just get these same old blues
So I'm cryin'....Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love my baby....I can't live another day
Yeah now when I first met you baby....At a dance and we did fine
Now we're together and it's a total waste of time
So I'm cryin'....Why do I have to feel this way
If I can't love you baby....I can't live another day
Well I guess it's just my own fault....The truth I cannot hide
But if I ever get you back dear....I'll stay right by your side
I won't be cryin'....I'll stay happy that a way
I'll be lovin' my little baby....Every night and every day
THE HOUSE IS ROCKIN'
(Written By SRV & D. Bramhall )
Well ,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah ,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother come on in
Kick off your shoes start losin' the blues
This old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor come on baby shake sumpin' loose
Well,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother come on in
Well,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother come on in
Walkin' up the street you can hear the sound
Of some bad honky tonkers really layin' it down
They've seen it all for years and got nothin' to lose
So get down on the floor shimmy 'til you shake sumpin' loose
Well,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother knockin'
Yeah,The house is a rockin' don't bother come on in
I said the house is a rockin' don't bother come on in
TIGHTROPE
(Written By SRV & D. Bramhall )
Caught up in a whirlwind can't catch my breath
Knee deep in hot water broke out in a cold sweat
Can't catch a turtle in this rat race
Feels like I'm losin' time at a breakneck pace
Afraid of my own shadow in the face of grace
Heart full of darkness spotlight on my face
There was love all around me but I was lookin' for revenge
Thank God it never found me would have been the end
(I was) walkin' the tightrope steppin' on my friends
Walkin' the tightrope (it) was a shame and a sin
Walkin' the tightrope between wrong and right
Walkin' the tightrope both day and night
Lookin' back in front of me in the mirror's a grin
Through eyes of love I see I'm really lookin' at a friend
We've all had our problems that's the way life is
My heart goes out to others who are there to make amends
We've been walkin' the tightrope tryin' to make it right
Walkin' the tightrope every day and every night
Walkin' the tightrope bring it all around
Walkin' the tightrope from the lost to found
Walkin' the tightrope stretched around the world
Walkin' the tightrope save the boys and girls
Walkin' the tightrope let's make it right
Walkin' the tightrope do it do it tonight
Walkin' the tightrope
VOODOO CHILE (Slight Return)
(Written By Jimi Hendrix)
Well I'm standin' next to a mountain....Choppin' down with the edge of my hand
Well I'm standin' next to a mountain....Choppin' down with the edge of my hand
Pick up the pieces, make an island....Might even raise a little sand
Cause I'm a voodoo chile....Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it right back to you....One of these days
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it right back to you....The rest of my days
I won't see you again in this world....See ya in the next one
Don't be late....Don't be late
Cause I'm a voodoo chile yeah....Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile
