1 — I Won't Deny

How you walk that fire
Is what will matter most
Dust off that failure
And take a double dose

Oh, these things I won't deny
I've walked those glided splinters, many times

Busting out that pity
Wipe those sins away
Throw down some gris gris
And dance the night away

Oh, these things I won't deny
I've walked those glided splinters, many times

I want to testify I ain't done nothing wrong
Just asked the questions
What the hell is going on
Come on lean on me

You turn that blind eye when there ain't no black or white
Pony up your rage, man it's shinning so bright
Time and time and time again
Now let the truth be told
There's a brother lying out there
Dead in the road

Oh, these things I won't deny
I've walked those glided splinters, many times
So you know I'll try, try again
It's how you walk this fire in the end
Come on lean on me, yeah

2 — Ain't Easy

It won't be easy
It ain't easy now
It won't be easy
It ain't easy now

I was saying,I was saying
And you know it’s true, oh yeah
You were saying, you were saying Baby
What I might loose

Tired of all this dying
And tired of all this crying over you

I'm a lost man
Living in a wilderness of pain
When that bill comes due
I pay the cost
And take the blame

Tired of all this dying
And I’m tired of all this crying over you

You know it won't be easy
It ain't easy now
You know it won't be easy
It ain't easy now

Shakin' that bush won't be easy
Shakin' that bush ain't easy now
Shakin’ that bush won’t be easy
Shakin’ that bush ain’t easy now
Come on, come on
Ain’t easy now
Come on, come
Ain’t easy now

3 — Shake And Shudder

I know it's a bad week
When you show up on Monday
Just like that hanged man
That got no reprieve on Sunday

Oh, it’s wake up time now
Skin it back and see
Shake and shudder down the road for me
I think I would mention it

Thinking ‘bout that lying time
Don't you put the man on me
I can't break this losing streak
Please, have a little sympathy

Oh, it’s wake up time now
Skin it back and see
Shake and shudder down the road for me
Thought I would mention it

Oh I just gotta say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

He's a schemer a full time deceiver
Gonna put the twist on you
Half of what you're seeing
Ain’t none of what you're hearing baby
That's what you got to do
That’s what you got to do

Hard but fair that’s what they say
It’s a lesson you learn best
Those politics of sin my brother
Will put you to the test

Oh, it’s wake up time now
Skin it back and see
Shake and shudder down the road for me
I thought I would mention it
Baby will you listen now
You got to resist it
Please let me show you how

He's a schemer a fulltime deceiver
Gonna put that twist on you
Half of what you're seeing
None of what you're hearing baby
That's what you got to do
That's what you got to do
Baby, that’s what you got to do
You got to resist it
Don’t let them twist it
You got to resist it

4 — Found My Love

Found my love
Oh, just like in a mystery
She was working all night
She was living in misery
Well, I held that girl so tight
I never did want to let go
It was the best of times
The worst of times I've seen

Stand back baby you're finding out what you need
You don't need a reason now to believe

We've been talking all night
Talking about things we might done wrong
But they don't matter now
Those things have come and gone
And I'm not reaching out
Trying to find me anything
Because the things I love
Are living now in my dreams

Stand back baby you're finding out what you need
You don't need a reason now to believe

Time is changing
But it ain't put a claim on me
I’m breaking down
The way it's supposed to be

Is this the beginning
Beginning of the ending
The end of the beginning
Won't you help now, help me my friend
And don't let it pass you by
Cause it may never come again
And the choice you make
Might be your destiny
Oh, it might be your destiny

Stand back baby you're finding out what you need
You don't need a reason now to believe

Oh, I really need that girl
Oh, I really need that girl

5 — Talking About You

When I see you on the street
I'm gonna walk right up to you
And you might think I'm crazy
Oh baby that's what I got to do

I'm just rocking about
Baby I'm just talking about you
Just talking about you

I can see what's on your mind now
Baby talking all the time
Yes I see you're a sweet thing
Oh baby come on home with me

I'm just rocking about
Baby I'm just talking about you
Just talking about you
Well all right now

I'm just rockin' about
Baby I'm just talking about you
Just talking about you

Well this ain't no happy ending
Most things don't work out well
And I'd be lying or pretending
The difference gets so hard to tell

I'm just rocking about
Baby I'm just talking about you
Just talking about you
Just talking about you

She said yeah
Baby she said yeah
Well she said yeah
Baby she said yeah
Well all right now

6 — Reaction

Oh yeah gimme some kind of reaction
And let me know now baby that you're still alive
A little sign, maybe some satisfaction
Could go a long way
To figuring this thing out

You upset me baby
I don't know what's worrying you
Send me out a message darling
So I know now what we got to do
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Get down

Oh baby please come out of your darkness
I got the cure now
For baby what's ailing you
Oh yeah, oh yeah

Gimmie some kind of reaction, baby
You know I'm talking to you
Gimmie some kind of reaction, baby

7 — Cool Treatment

Here I sit and listen to this third degree
Hearing about those things that bother me

Cool kind of treatment is going down
Cool kind of treatment is going down
Sing it

Listen now baby to what I'm saying
Well I ain't dumb enough to baby be playing
You could pray to the Lord above if you want to
Oh if you want to

Cool kind of treatment is going round
Cool kind of treatment is coming down

I'm not telling you baby that you're wrong
All I know is that the weak kill the strong
Try all you want to reject them
While they’re burning down your house
You protect them

Cool kind of treatment is going round
Cool kind of treatment is coming down
And everybody's fine

8 — Pushing Me

Coming down on me
It's coming down on you
Here we go again
You mortgaged your own soul

Don't want to jump
I don't want to shoot no more
Losing everything now baby that I adore
That I adore

Say you just got off
Oh, that's Jeri's way
It keeps getting stranger
Here comes the judgment day

Don't want to jump
I don't want to shoot no more
Losing everything now baby that I adore
That I adore

Pushing it baby, way too hard
Pushing me baby this time you've gone to far

Why do you do me now
When you cross the divide
What will the faithful say
To swim in your desire
Oh, it’s the cruelest way

Don't want to jump
I don't want to shoot no more
Losing everything now baby that I adore
That I adore

Pushing me too hard
This time you've gone too far
You’re pushing me too hard
Oh, baby you’ve gone too far
Why do you do me like you do

9 — Wait And See

How will I know when it's over
Don't want to cross that white line
And these days will surely kill you
Too many memories left behind

Nothings easy I can tell you
You beat your brains out while they sell you
You lose each day until it matters
Still hanging round must mean something

And you're telling me
And you're telling me
I'm wrong

And I'm telling you
And I'm telling you
Oh Baby, just get along, just get along

Oh, just you wait and see

Don't waste your time on pretending
Worrying about those useless things
One thing I found this world over
Life will leave you high and dry again
Oh, this life will leave you high and dry again
Oh, this life will leave you high and dry again

Oh, ain't no doubt about
You just wait and see
Oh, ain't no doubt about
Just you wait and see
A little bit closer, just a little bit closer
A little bit closer, just a little bit closer

10 — Time Or Love

No more doggin' or fooling around with you
Got to let it go
That's what I got to do
Don't want no foolish man
Always whispering in my ear
He tells me what I want
And he tells me all of my fear

Time or love is gonna get you
Time or love is gonna get you

Trouble ain't kind
And trouble ain't new
And the sun won't shine
In my backdoor all too soon
I wasn't looking for protection
And I sure wasn't looking for you\I will lay it all down on track four twenty two

Time or love is gonna get you
Time or love is gonna get you
It’s gonna get you, all right

Don't try and be sweet
Cause man you're a sucker in this town
And when you try and play it straight
Man they keep bringing you down
If all you got is regret
Well I guess you never tried
And when you ain't got the struggle
Man you just ain't alive

Time or love is gonna get you
Time or love is gonna get you
Is gonna get you
Is gonna get you
Is gonna get you right now
