Getting Nowhere Fast
(2003 Space Songs)

You're getting nowhere fast
why can't you let it be
you got to make it last my friend
how can I make you see
you got to take your time
you got to play your part
you're getting nowhere fast my friend
it's over before you start

Taking care of business, ain't no kind of plan
sometimes you got to do it if you want to be a man
crawling home at midnight, ain't no way to be
first thing to himself a man must prove that he is free

You're getting nowhere fast
you got to take your time
not everythign's a blast my friend
you got to feed the line
you're getting nowhere fast
why can't you let it be
you got to make it last my friend
how can I make you see

Taking care of business
ain't no kind of plan
sometimes you got to do it
if you want to be a man
crawling home at midnight,
ain't no way to be
first thing to himself a man
must prove that he is free
prove that he is free'prove that he is free

Taking care of business
ain't no kind of plan
sometimes you got to do it
if you want to be a man
crawling home at midnight,
ain't no way to be
first thing to himself a man
must prove that he is free
man must prove it
man must prove it
a man's got to take his time

"Going Through The Door"
1974 Space Songs Ltd.

I don't care if you don't understand
Going through the door, yes I'm going through the door
I don't care if you don't hold my hand
Going through the door, yes I'm going through the door
I'm going through the door, cause I wanna go home
And it's sad to say she don't own me, But I'll keep on movin' on

I don't care if you don't give a damn
Going through the door, yes I'm going through the door
I don't care if you don't understand
Going through the door, yes I'm going through the door
I'm going through the door, cause I wanna go home
And it's sad to say she don't want me, But I'll keep on movin' on

I don't care just what you think of me
Gonna be free, yes I'm gonna be free
I don't care to be a fantasy
Gonna be free, just wait and see
Gonna be free, like the sky and the sea
And it's sad to say she don't love me, but I'll keep on movin' on
Yes, its sad to say it's now over, but I'll keep on movin' on

"Going To Chicago"
1989 Space Songs

Goin' to Chicago gonna play the blues,
Leavin' in the morning with my rock and roll shoes.
Ain't goin' to no airport ain't gonna get no plane,
Lookin' for my roots that's why I take the train.

Goin' down to Memphis, nothin' left to lose,
Take along my Gibson gonna play some blues.
String around my suitcase, pocket full of rye,
There's something 'bout the blues that aways makes me cry

Tired of getting nowhere workin' nine to five,
Got to get away so I can feel alive.
You've only got one life, that's what they say to me,
Time it is a wastin' when I should be free.

I've done a lot of talking, now it's time to make a stand.
Instead of playing safe, I should be playing with the band.
You've got to keep on moving, you've heard it all before.
This time I'm gonna make it, won't be back no more.

"Going To Try"
1969 Chrys-A-Lee Music Ltd.

I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try,
I'm gonna try and get my feet out of the sand.
I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try,
I'm gonna try and find out where's the Promised Land.

Where are you ? How do I know you're true, know you're true ?
Now I can find - what I want out of life, out of life.

I wanna try, I wanna try,
I wanna try and find out where's the Promised Land.
I wanna try, I wanna try, I wanna try and get my feet out of the sand.

"Gonna Run"
1971 Chrys-A-Lee Music Ltd.

Gonna run, runnin' from the city; gonna run, runnin' to the country.
Gonna run, runnin' from the city; gotta ease my achin' mind.

Gonna hide, hidin' from the smoke fumes;
gonna hide, sing myself some new tunes.
Gonna hide, hidin' from the smoke fumes;
gotta clean myself inside.

Gonna run, runnin' from the ego; gonna run, find out where the free go.
Gonna run, runnin' from the ego; I wanna free myself inside.

"Gonna Turn You On"
1978 Warner Brothers Music Corp.

When I'm runnin' free - got no strings on me,
Cause I'm adjusted for the night
Got my rock and roll, cause it frees my soul -
So I'm flyin' high tonight

Gonna turn you on, yeah baby - gonna turn you on
Gonna turn you on - yeah, yeah

You can feel the beat - you can stomp your feet,
You can feel it in your brain
You can scream and shot - oh, let it all hang out,
Truckin' like a diesel train

Gonna turn you on - yeah, yeah - gonna turn you on baby
Gonna turn you on, turn you on

My blood is pumping and my head is hot - you can feel it,
Just about to feel it

Gonna feel it Lord - whew, gonna feel it

Turn you on...on...on...on - gonna turn you on, yeah...yeah...yeah
Turn you on - gonna turn you on - turn you, turn you, yeah, yeah

Babe I'm flyin' high tonight

Come on baby, gonna turn you on
Yeah, yeah...gonna turn you on baby
Gonna turn you on - turn you on

My blood is pumping and my head is hot - yes I love to feel it,
Yes I love to feel it
