Tell your women to listen up;
It's child's play, that gin and snuff
Co-caine - runnin' all 'round my brain
If I had a nickel, if I had a dime,
I'd sniff 'em both up and die before my time
Co-caine - runnin' all 'round my brain
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
Well, I been to the East, I been to the West, and
The thing that I remember best is
Co-caine - runnin' all 'round my brain
Been to Tijuana, soaked in the sun
Boys, they wanted ladies, but I couldn't have none
Co-caine - runnin' all 'round my brain
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
(Give 'em a sniff!)
Alright boys, now, give' 'em Hell
There ain't nothin' I wouldn't sell for
Co-caine - runnin' all 'round my brain
You can read your Bible, you can say it's a sin, but
Sooner or later, you're gonna give in to
Co-caine - runnin' all 'round my brain
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine
Co-caine, co-caine, co-caine

Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' down the King's Highway
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' 'till you find your way
I walked down by the clear blue stream
Hey-I-ay-I-ay
Met the woman of my dreams
On that fine day-I-ay
And I ask you, friend
What's a fella to do
When her hair is black
And her eyes are blue?
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' down the King's Highway
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' 'till you find your way
We walked down by the shimmering seas
Hey-I-ay-I-ay
She laid me down by the redwood trees
On that fine day-I-ay
And I ask you, friend
What's a fella to do
When her hair is black
And her eyes are blue?
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' down the King's Highway
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' 'till you find your way
We rode up to the mountain top
Hey-I-ay-I-ay
We said our vows and we set up shop
On that fine day-I-ay
And I ask you, friend
What's a fella to do
When her hair is black
And her eyes are blue?
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' down the King's Highway
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' 'till you find your way
When I woke up, I was all alone
...
With a broken heart and a ticket home
...
And I ask you, friend
What's a fella to do
When her hair is black
And her eyes are blue?
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' down the King's Highway
Keep on rollin', rollin'
Rollin' 'till you find your way
Well, I'm standing on the platform, getting beat by all this driving rain
Telling myself lies, like "nothing will ever be the same"
And "All the work I've ever done's in vain"
"All the work I've ever done's in vain"
This mem'ry of your brown eyes / is the only thing that keeps me sane
I came for a warning - old man, tell me how do I get through?
"On Sunday Morning?" "Tell 'em you got lovin'" - yes I do!
House burned down, the car run out of gas and everyone I knew is dead
Still, I see some sinking clouds with lightning in 'em destined for my head
She loved me all along, or so she said
Loved me all along, or so she said
The mem'ry of her brown eyes is / the only thing that gets me out of bed
I came for a warning - old man, tell me how do I get through?
"On Sunday Morning?" "Tell 'em you got lovin'" - yes I do!
Ivy clinging to the wall of the mansion - baby, don't you see?
Blackbird singing in the night, when all of the streets are fast asleep
Singin' "Dixie" - he never knew retreat
Singin' "Dixie" - he never knew retreat
This mem'ry of your brown eyes got me / livin' up on the edge of my seat
I came for a warning - old man, tell me how do I get through?
"On Sunday Morning?" "Tell 'em you got lovin'" - yes I do!

Hollywood & Vine (Live)

Livin' in the place where Satan dwells
The amount of trouble, no tongue can tell
People on the street are feelin' fine
Livin' on Holly wood & Vine
Hollywood & Vine, Hollywood & Vine
Lord, I wish I woulda stayed away from Hollywood & Vine
Started off livin' in a paradise
So far away from the cats & mice
You can search - there ain't nothin' to find
Livin' on Hollywood & Vine
Hollywood & Vine, Hollywood & Vine
Lord, I wish I woulda stayed away from Hollywood & Vine
Death's watchin' over us, keepin' score
He likes to be asked what the fightin's for
His reply is a laugh, and we're stuck on the line
Livin' on Hollywood & Vine
Hollywood & Vine, Hollywood & Vine
Lord, I wish I woulda stayed away from Hollywood & Vine
Everyone pretending that they're for real
Searchin' around for a soul to steal
Vampire's waitin' on your blood to dine
Livin' on Hollywood & Vine
Hollywood & Vine, Hollywood & Vine
Lord, I wish I woulda stayed away from Hollywood & Vine

The Flood (Live)

Tryin' to stay out the way
of a massacre
Them bandits are gatherin' up on the hill
Lookin' for you, lookin' for her
Still, it continues
As this Earth keeps turnin'
High water comin' all around
There's no guarantee that you'll win
The mob is runnin' so fast - I can't make the pace
Feels like my soul's evaporated - I can't find a trace
But somehow, I know in you I'll find my salvation
High water comin' all around
There's no guarantee that you'll win
The flood is comin' - you better make way
I made my preparations - now I've just gotta wait
Standing on top of a levee, I'm facin'
High water comin' all around
There's no guarantee that you'll win
Been on the outside of this town so long - I can't recall
Why anyone ever made me believe I couldn't see anything in you at all
You got fake people, fake believin' in a fake religion
High water comin' all around
There's no guarantee that you'll win
