Gentlemen, Start Your Engines [Mydland/Barlow]
It's three AM in the combat
zone.
Gentlemen start your engines!
They can close this bar,
but baby I ain't goin.
Gentlemen start your engines!
If you lock up the whiskey,
give me gasoline.
I got a seven grand redline
on the black machine.
The dead can do my sleepin',
if you know what I mean.
Gentlemen start your engines!
Ge-Ge-Ge-Gentlemen start
your engines!
Gentlemen start
Gentlemen start
Ge-Ge-Ge-Gentlemen start
your engines!
Got a little girl here in
a pinafore dress.
Gentlemen start your engines!
She's got more tricks than
you can guess.
Gentlemen start your engines!
It's dark outside, but it's
darker within.
Check the back of my jacket
just to see my grin.
They don't write pomes about
the state I'm in.
Gentlemen start your engines!
Ge-Ge-Ge-Gentlemen start
your engines!
Gentlemen start
Gentlemen start
Ge-Ge-Ge-Gentlemen start
your engines!
Bridge 1:
One of these days I'm gonna
pull myself togeather.
Soon as I finish tearin'
myself apart
Like the Devil's Mustangs,
I've been ridin' hell for
leather,
Put away wet and angry in
the dark.
When the police come you
better let 'em in,
Gentlemen start your engines!
Don't forget to tell 'em
what a sport I've been.
Gentlemen start your engines!
I got a head full of vintage
TNT,
They're gonna blow me up
'stead of burying me.
If you're lookin' for trouble
come and sit with me.
Gentlemen start your engines!
Ge-Ge-Ge-Gentlemen start
your engines!
Gentlemen start
Gentlemen start
Ge-Ge-Ge-Gentlemen start
your engines!
Bridge 2:
One of these days I'm gonna
pull myself togeather.
Soon as I finish tearin'
myself apart
Let me tell you, honey,
There's some mighty stormy
weather
Howlin' round the caverns
of my heart.
Get Back [Lennon/McCartney]
JoJo was a man who thought
he was a woman,
But he knew it couldn't
last
JoJo left his home in Tucson,
Arizona for some California grass.
Get back, get back, get
back to where you once belonged
Get back JoJO, go home,
get back, get back Joe
Sweet Loretta Molin thought
she was a woman,
but she was another man
All the other girls around
here said she's got it coming
But she gets it while she
can.
Oh, get back, get back,
get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back, get
back to where you once belonged
Get back Loretta, go home,
Get back to where you where
you once belonged
Get back, your mommy's waiting
for you
Wearing her high heeled
shoes and her low neck sweater,
Get back home Loretta
Get Out Of My Life [?]
Get out of my life woman,
I don't want you no more.
Get out of my life woman,
I don't love you no more.
Get out of my life woman,
nothin' but heartaches by the score.
Get out of my eyes teardrops,
I've got to see my way around.
Get out of my eyes teardrops,
I've got to see my way around.
Get out of my eyes teardrops,
nothin' but heartaches by the pound.
Gimme Some Lovin' [Winwood/Davis]
Well my temperature is rising

Crazy people rocking 'cause

Let me in baby I don't know

But you better take it easy
'cause this place is hot
And I'm so glad you made

You got to gimme some lovin',

Now we're gonna relax just

The Golden Road [McGannahan
Skjellyfetti] (GDA)
See that girl, barefootin'
along,
Whistlin' and singin', she's
a carryin' on.
There's laughing in her
eyes, dancing in her feet,
She's a neon-light diamond,
she can live on the street.
Hey hey, hey, come right
away
Come and join the party
every day.
Well everybody's dancin'
in a ring around the sun
Nobody's finished, we ain't
even begun.
So take off your shoes,
child, and take off your hat.
Try on your wings and find
our where it's at.
Hey hey, hey, come right
away
Come and join the party
every day.
Take a vacation, fall out
for a while,
Summer's comin' in, and
it's goin' outa style
Well, lie down smokin',
honey, have yourself a ball
Cause your mother's down
in Memphis, won't be back 'till the fall.
Hey hey, hey, come right
away
Come and join the party
every day.
Gomorrah [Garcia/Hunter]
Just a song of Gomorrah,
I wonder what they did there
Must've been a bad thing
to get shot down for
I wonder how they blew it
up or if they burned it down
Get out, get out Mr. Lot
and don't you look around.
Who gave you your orders,
someone from the sky
I heard a voice inside my
head in the desert wind so dry
[Bridge]
I heard a voice tellin'
me to flee the very same voice
I always believe
Said alot of trouble's comin',
but it don't have to come to you
I'm telling you so you can
tell the rest what you've been through.
Don't you turn around, no,
don't look after you
It's not your business how
it's done, you're lucky to get through
You're a good upstanding
man, a credit to the flock
But if you don't face straight
ahead you could not take the shock
Blew the city off the map,
left nothing there but fire
The wife of Lot got turned
to salt, because she looked behind her.
Good Lovin' [Resnick/Clark]
Well, I was feelin' so bad,

Good Times Blues (Never Trust A
Woman) [Mydland]
Gonna see some good times,
Gonna get to ring that bell.
Gonna see some good times,
Some times to make up for
when
I'm not feelin' that well.
I must be due some great
times,
'Cause right now I feel
like hell.
Never trust a woman,
Who wears her pants too
tight.
Never trust a woman,
Who wears her pants too
tight.
She may be back tomorrow,
She'll be gone tomorrow
night.
Come tomorrow, I'll get my
pay,
And I'm gonna leave this
town,
Come tomorrow, I'll get
my pay, I'll get my pay,
And I'm gonna leave this
God damn town.
If she don't really love
me,
There ain't no reason to
stick around.
Gonna see some good times,
Gonna get to ring that bell.
Gonna see some good times,
Oh, some times to make up
for when
I'm not feelin' that well.
Must be due some great times,
But if they never come around,
Oh, oh what the, if they
never, come around,
Never, never ever, ever,
ever, come around,
Oh, what the hell.
Got My Mojo Working [P.Foster]
I got my mojo working, just
don't work on you
Some time, child, I just
don't know what to do
Let it work, let it, when
it's
When it's, work all day,
all day, all day, work, work, work.
Greatest Story Ever Told
[Weir/Hart/Hunter]
Moses come ridin' up on a
quasar.
His spurs was a-jingling,
the door was ajar.
His buckle was silver, his
manner was bold.
And I asked him to come
on in out of the cold.
His brain was boiling, his
reason was spent.
Nothing is borrowed, nothing
is lent.
I asked him for mercy, he
gave me a gun.
Now and again these things
just got to be done.
[Bridge]
Abraham and Isaac sitting
on a fence
You'd get right to work
if you had any sense
You know the one thing we
need is a left-handed monkey wrench.
Gideon come in with his eyes
on the floor
Says, "You ain't got a hinge,
you can't close the door."
Moses stood up a full six
foot and ten
Says, "You can't close the
door when the walls caved in."
I ask him for water, he poured
me some wine
We finished the bottle then
broke into mine.
You get what you come for,
you're ready to go
And it's one in ten thousand
done come for the show.
[Bridge]
Abraham and Isaac digging
on a well
Mama come quick with the
water witch spell
Cool clear water well you
cain't ever tell.

Green, Green Grass of
Home [C.Putman]
The old home town looks the
same as I step off the train
Meeting every train in my
mind's eye till the man in mail came
Hair like gold, lips like
cherry
It's good to touch the green,
green grass of home
Green, green grass of home,
green green grass of home.
Only dream I know of is to
be found hair like gold,
Lips like a cherry
It's good to touch the green,
green grass of home
They'll all come to greet
me, on the steps of my sweet dream
It's good I dreamt the green,
green grass of home
I wait and look around me
at the broken walls that surround me
And out here I was on the
ground.
There's a garden in the path
of progress
Unharmed through winter's
day break
Then I'll touch the green,
green grass of home
They'll all come to greet
me from the chains of the old dark hollow
The green, green grass of
home
They'll all come to greet
me on the steps, my sweet dream
