I got a ticket coming from
I work all day, man, have no fun
Won’t it ever stop, feeling like I’m not

Good to touch and taste and hear
I want it all and have no fear
Swimming faster from
Going under fighting to be some…..

One I once knew, before I was used
This heart abused – beating blue

And he said son you are too young
To worry like the way you do
There’s plenty time to make amends
Slow down….before you’ve got regret in life

Cover up I clean up well
Smarter, faster, scared as hell
Speeding down this road
Looking back I’m missing all you’ve shown

Pull over soon – I’m losing control
This road I knew has lost its use

And he said son you are too young
To worry like the way you do
There’s plenty time to make amends
Slow down….before you’ve got regret in life

Pull over soon I’m losing control
This heart abused, beating blue

And he said son you are too young
To worry like the way you do
There’s plenty time to make amends
Slow down

He said son you are too young
To worry like the way you do
There’s plenty time to make amends
Slow down….before you’ve got regret in life


Young Regret

This is it, uncover up
Pull the sheet down from your head
You spoke this line too many times
But you swear this time no more cruel lies
You woke up, couldn’t bare
To see yourself looking in that mirror
Aching for a remedy
And a door with a lock that will fit your key

Never thought your hand would burn standing by the fire
Never thought you’d be the one to run out of desire
Bottle of gin and a whiskey run is getting old and tired
Never knew that the starting gate would mean the end of the race…And it goes

Promises, you gave a few
But you couldn’t stand that point of view
Your mouth runs dry and your fevers high
And you’re shaking for so you take one more
This is it, one last time
You tell yourself while you hear a lie
Reaching for another crime
While you dream of the laughs when you were nine

Never thought your hand would burn standing by the fire
Never thought you’d be the one to run out of desire
Bottle of gin and a whiskey run is getting old and tired
Never knew that the starting gate would mean the end of the race

One more cup of sin she’s burning thru your veins
While the night grows old and you hear the words –last call is made

Bottle of gin and a whiskey run is getting old and tired
But you can’t seem to find the strength to put out this fire

Never thought your hand would burn standing by the fire
Never thought you’d be the one to run out of desire
Bottle of gin and a whiskey run is getting old and tired
Never knew that the starting gate would mean the end of the race…And it goes


Whiskey Run

                                                 Mrs. Wallington

Mrs. Wallington, she lived here isn’t that good
Princeton, New Jersey one-one-three a place indeed
She came into our home served us warmly a complete unknown

	I wonder what she was like in life
	I wonder what made her cry all night
	I wonder what types of books she read
	I wonder what she was like in bed
	I wonder how she would tell a lie
	And how she came to meet her guy
	I wonder about the day she died
	And all the dreams she left behind

Mrs. Wallington a name to hold in your heart
Gone for good she was certainly one of a kind
Could it be that someday, yes one day, we’ll meet again

	I wonder what she was like in life
	I wonder what made her cry all night
	I wonder what types of books she read
	I wonder what she was like in bed
	I wonder how she would tell a lie
	And how she came to meet her guy
	I wonder about the day she died
	And all the dreams she left behind

What will they say of me, will I be missed company
Would I look back on the things I’ve done and sleep peacefully
But today is a day I will keep…….
	

        I wonder what you were like in life
	I wonder what made you cry all night
	I wonder what types of books you read
	I wonder what you were like in bed
	I wonder how you would tell a lie
	And how you came to meet your guy
	I wonder about the day you died
	And all the dreams you left behind...

                                                  Take Me Back

Hey lady with the blue dress on
I hate to say I’ve done you wrong
Been spending all my time by the track
Bet the five horse but he was last

I didn’t mean it – take me back
Believe it – take me back
I didn’t mean it – take me back
Now you’re leaving, how you're leaving and you won't come back

  Bah, Bah, bah-dahda, bahda, dahda
  Oh, oh, oh, oh oh-oh

Come on baby I swear I’m through
From now on girl I’ll be true
Go to church stop drinking the booze
Never lie or break any rule

I didn’t mean it – take me back
Believe it – take me back
I didn’t mean it – take me back
Now you’re leaving, how you're leaving and you won't come back (girl)

 Bah, Bah, bah-dahda, bahda, dahda
 Oh, oh, oh, oh oh-oh (x 2)

If I only bet the eight…

There’d be nothing left to say
We would be on Holiday
Somewhere South of Spain
Where they would throw me a parade
Perhaps give me my own day
Oh some day I’ll be great

Bah, Bah, bah-dahda, bahda, dahda
Oh, oh, oh, oh oh-oh

I didn’t mean it – take me back
Believe it – take me back
I didn’t mean it – take me back
Now you’re leaving, how you're leaving and you won't come back (girl)

 Bah, Bah, bah-dahda, bahda, dahda…Oh, oh, oh, oh oh-oh (x 2)


Take Me Back

This is how it goes
At Billy Robbins
Party of the week
While his parents were in Greece…check it out now

All the kids were talking ‘bout this coming weekend
School was letting out and the fun was beginning
Boys were looking to score and girls just want to do some drinking
Warm summer nights were on their way for the taking

Yes they were gathering outside
By the pool right behind the house

This is how it goes
At Billy Robbins
Party of the week
While his parents were in Greece
I said the music's getting loud
At Billy Robins
Kids were all around
Yea, they were jumping up and down

Susie was getting down and dancing real slowly
Jamie came right up beside her and told her he was a bit lonely
He’s been looking to talk with her since History
Never had the courage before he drink whiskey with that brownie

Yes, they were laughing at the scene 
When he tripped fell right to his knees

This is how it goes
At Billy Robbins
Party of the week
While his parents were in Greece
I said the music's getting loud

All the kids said / This is how it goes / You know the kids said / This is our time
They coming through the back door / Looking for a little more / Damn, if I don’t score /Gonna have a good time, good time, good time, good…
This is how it goes
