Baby, can’t keep a good woman down
Don’t you know, what goes around comes around
You can try all you might
But you can’t win this fight
Coz you know that it just ain’t right
Hey mister, can’t keep a good woman down’
Don’t you go, and run around all over town
Your lies of protection
Just feed your obsession
Hiding your true aggression
Now listen, can’t keep a good woman down
No, think you can push her around
Try to lock up her dreams
She will burst at the seams
And now you know what it means
No you cannot keep me down
No you cannot keep me down
Cannot keep me down
Cannot keep me down
No you cannot, cannot, cannot, cannot
No, no, no!
Try all you might
But you know that it just it right

Baby I can see you got sass
But don’t forget about class
You tell me that you’re in your prime
Before you go and waste my time
If you wanna make me shiver
Boy you better deliver
Baby I can tell you got drive
That ain’t enough to survive
You gotta feel me one inch at a time
Sip me like that sweet ol' wine
If you wanna make me shiver
Boy you better deliver
I ain’t got no time for silly boys
Who only fool around and make too much noise
I want my love like I want my dinner
Under sixty minutes and hot
Baby i can feel your fire
But don’t you trip on my wire
Just keep that flame burnin’ steady
Until I’m good and ready
If you wanna make me shiver
Boy you better deliver
If you say you’re such a giver
Boy you better deliver
Think I’ll cry you a river
Boy you better deliver
You know, sometimes I wish guys would just stop and take a breath
If you wanna make me shiver
Boy you better deliver

Freedom - 2022 Remaster

They say that I’m a wild one
I say that they’re not wrong
But sometimes even wild ones
Don’t want to be alone
Yeah I’m a free one
Free as I can be
Some days I choose freedom
Some days freedom chooses me
They say that I’m a strong one
I say that ain’t no lie
But just because I’m strong
It don’t mean I never cry
Yeah I’m a free one
Free as I can be
Some days I choose freedom
Some days freedom chooses me
They tell me that I’m crazy
Because I’m feeling sad
But when your heart is aching
It makes a woman mad
Yeah I’m a free one
Free as I can be
Some days I choose freedom
Some days freedom chooses me
Yeah I know that I’m a wild one
Wild and free and loose
But let me tell ya something
Even wild ones get the blues
Yeah I’m a free one
Free as I can be
Some days I choose freedom
Some days freedom chooses me

I got a little blues garden
Where my blue blossoms grow
And I tend my little garden
Every time I’m feeling low
I got seeds for my garden
From the troubles in my mind
And every little blue blossom
Was a pain I used to hide
I collected every drop
Of all the tears I cried
And I water my garden every day
All the smiles that I could find
Gave me little rays of sunshine
To chase the clouds away
Oh I love my blues garden
Where my blue blossoms grow
And if I tend it every day
I will never feel so low

We’re just a couple of gypsies, baby
Take our love on the go
We’re just a couple of gypsies, baby
Never ask you for more
We’re the universal lovers
And anyone who loves us
Keeps a little piece of us
And we a piece of them
Yeah, we keep a little piece of them
We’re just a couple of alley cats
Come and scratch at your door
We’re just a couple of alley cats
Never ask you for more
Oh, we will love you tonight
But don’t hold us too tight
Trap us and we will bite
You cannot keep us inside
Yeah we just wanna go outside
We’re just a couple of nomads, baby
Come and crash on your floor
We’re just a couple of nomads, baby
Never ask you for more
When other people want to pair up
We just want to get up
If they never tie your strings
They cannot tear ‘em apart
No they cannot tear your strings apart
We’re just a couple of gypsies, baby
Take our love on the go
We’re just a couple of gypsies, baby
Never ask you for more
We’re the universal lovers
And if you want to love us
We’re just passing through
And then we’ll fade away
No you know we simply cannot stay

Shadows - 2022 Remaster

Look at you now
You’re a shadow of yourself
Look at you
Your love is somewhere else
It rips you apart, it burns in your heart
It tugs on your strings till they snap
And you fall in the shadows
The shadows of yourself
Try to keep a distance
And you hide away your fears
Try to keep a distance
As you wash away your tears
Feeling so lost, the harder you try
You know that you don’t stand a chance
So you hide in the shadows
The shadows of yourself
Gotta pick up the pieces
Of your shattered former self
Gotta pick up the pieces
You belong to no one else
Go find what you lost, love what you find
You don’t have to live in the dark
So come out of the shadows
The shadows of yourself
You don't have to live in the shadows
You belong to no one else

You gotta stay with it
Stay with the blues
You gotta stay with it
No matter what you choose
When you wake up in the morning
Till you lay down at night
You gotta hold on to the blues real tight
You gotta stay with it
Stay with the blues
You gotta keep at it
No matter what you choose
When you’re jammin’ all night long
Even when the jive is gone
The music just keeps going on and on
You gotta stay with it
Stay with the blues
You gotta rock with it
No matter what you choose
When you’re feeling sad and low
You know just what to do
So raise your hands and pray to the gods in blue
You gotta stay
You gotta stay
You gotta stay with it
You gotta rock
You gotta roll
You gotta roll with it
When you’re jammin’ all night long
Even when the jive is gone
The music just keeps going on and on
