I was born under a bad sign,
Left out in the cold
I'm a lonely man who knows
Just what it means to lose control

But, I took all the heartache
And turned it to shame,
Now I'm moving, moving on,
And I ain't taking the blame

Don't come running to me,
I know I've done all I can
A hard loving woman like you
Just makes a hard loving man

So I can say it to you, babe
I'll be a fool for your loving no more,
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying,
Fool for your loving no more
I'll be a fool for your loving no more

I'm tired of hiding my feelings,
You left me lonely too long
I gave my heart, and you tore it apart,
Oh, baby, you done me wrong

Don't come running to me,
I know I've done all I can
A hard loving woman like you
Just makes a hard loving man

So I can say it to you, babe
I'll be a fool for your loving no more,
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying,
Fool for your loving no more
I'll be a fool for your loving no more

I'll be a fool for your loving no more, no more, no more

So I can say it to you, babe
I'll be a fool for your loving no more,
A fool for your loving no more
I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying,
Fool for your loving no more
A fool for your loving no more

Fool for your loving no more...
				

I can tell by way you walk,
You give it all away
By the sweet way that you talk, yes you do

You got long legs, a black girl sway,
The way you shake your booty
Gives your schoolgirl game away, yes it does

You're just a sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run


I know you know
You got what it takes,
You got the fever,
But, you give me the shakes, yes you do

Straight out of Lolita
With nothing to lose,
When I got your number
My juke box blew a fuse, yes it did

You're just sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run, you better run,
So you better run, you better run
Or you better hide

Sweet talker, bad daughter,
You've just begun
The bitch is in heat
So you better run, you better run,
You better run, you better run,
Or you better hide

I can tell by way you walk,
You give it all away
By the sweet way that you talk, yes you do

You got long legs, a black girl sway,
The way you shake your booty
Gives your schoolgirl game away, yes it does

You're just a sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
Sweet talker, bad daughter,
An' you've just begun
The bitch is in heat,
So you better run
				

I wanna be loved,
Don't wanna be teased.
I don't want no woman
Getting down on her knees.

I'm ready an' willing
To reach for the sun,
So I can get me some loving
Before I'm gone.

I want more, more, more, more,
I want some more
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.

I want you to rock me
All night long.
Rope an' ride me, baby,
Do me wrong.

Roll me over, make be bleed,
I'd dance with the devil
To get what I need.
I need more, more, more, more,
I need some more of that
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.

I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I'm talking about sweet satisfaction,
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
Sweet satisfaction, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing.

I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I keep on looking for

Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking...
				

I take what I want,
And I got my eye on you
It's late in the evening
What are you gonna do

I got the place,
If you got the time,
I got the motion, baby,
If you got the mind

So wise man tell me
What it means to give and take,
It's double trouble,
But, it can ease a little heartache

So you can carry your load
Down the long, winding road
Carry your load, down the long, winding road

All I'm asking, all I wanna do is just
Put a little love in your heart,
Put a little love in your heart

I know what I want,
And it's close to the bone
Sooner or later, baby,
I'll be taking you home

You got the cool,
But, you give me the heat
You got the music, baby,
But, you give me the beat

So wise man tell me
What it means to give and take,
It's double trouble,
But, it can ease a little heartache

So you can carry your load
Down the long, winding road
Carry your love,
Down the long, winding road

All I'm asking, all I wanna do is just
Put a little love in your heart

Wise man tell me
What it means to give and take,
It's double trouble,
But, it can ease a little heartache

So you can carry your load
Down the long, winding road
Carry your love
Down the long, winding road
You got to carry your load
Down the long, winding road
				

I was dreaming of the past,
Why do good times never last
Help me Jesus, show the way
I can't hold on another day

I was hungry, felling low,
I just couldn't make out which way to go
Chasing rainbows that have no end,
The road is long without friend

Be my friend, be my brother,
Be the piper, play the call
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul

Just a young man looking homeward,
Watching the sun go down again
Across the water, the sun is shining,
But, will it ever, will it ever be the same

Be my friend, be my brother,
Be the piper, play the call
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul

I need somebody, I need someone,
I need somebody to call my own
Like a blindman, I can feel the heat of the sun,
But, like a blindman
I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where it's coming from

Be my friend, be my brother,
Be the piper, play the call
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul

I need somebody, I need someone,
I need somebody to call my own
Like a blindman, I can feel the heat of the sun,
But, like a blindman
I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where is coming from
				

Rising with the morning sun
I turn to greet the dawn,
Knowing I must face another day

Sleepless night behind me,
Just a memory of pain,
My heart has always been a cross to bear

Lord I know the sun shine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

All around me, shadows fall,
Tho' day has just begun,
I realise I'm on my own again

Memories of broken dreams,
As distant as the sun,
Are drifting like an echo in the wind

Lord, I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try, hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

Babe, I thought about it,
But, it just ain't done good,
You hold my heart and soul within your hand

All the time, you're in my mind,
I never thought you could be so blind,
Maybe someday I will understand

Lord, I know the sun shine,
But I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today, no more

Hey, mama you drive me crazy,
Knowing you're my hearts desire,
Why'd you go and hang me up this way

You've given me love, given me love,
Now tell me what you were thinking of,
Why'd you go and steal my soul away

Lord I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

I ain't gonna cry no more

Lord I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away

I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today
Ain't gonna cry no more1

Hey, I ain't gonna cry no more today
				

I've spent close on sixteen years
Watching your pretty flower grow
Little girl, little girl, now tell me
Everything you know
About the oceans and the skies,
The mountains and the trees,
And then I'm tell you about
The birds and the honey bees

'Cos I'm a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm a love man
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can
I just love to tease,
I would do anything to please you, baby

Sweet little angel, give me your hand,
Feel for my heartbeat, baby,
Then you'll understand
About the bees and the honey,
The bluebirds in the trees,
And you'd know, just to get close to you
I would get down on my knees

I am a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am a love man That's what I am
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can
I could love to squeeze,

Doing all I can

So come a little closer,
Let me whisper in your ear
How the good Lord in His Wisdom
Made you so, and put you here

He played a little game
Called The Apple and the Snake,
When the lady took her first sweet bite
The Snake made no mistake

He was a love man, yeah, yeah, yeah,
And I am a love man
I'm a hootchie cootchie man
And I'm doing all I can,
'Cos a love man needs his loving everyday
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I am a love man
				

You never call me, babe,
Until your man is gone,
I know it's you
When I pick up the telephone

You ask me how I am
And if I'm doing well,
When all you want from me
Is just to ring your bell

Take your time, we can do some lines,
'Cos it's alright
We can feel fine drinking midnight wine,
'Cos it's alright

Black and blue, black and blue,
I said come over here, baby,
And love me till I'm black and blue

You got the key to love
Dressed in your innocent smile,
You know you touched me baby,
So won't you stay for a while

And take your time, we can do some lines,
'Cos it's alright
We can feel fine drinking midnight wine,
'Cos it's alright

Black and blue, black and blue,
I said come over here, baby,
And love me till I'm black and blue
Black and blue, black and blue,
I said come over here, baby,
And love me till I'm black and blue

Take your time, we can do some lines,
'Cos it's alright
We can feel fine drinking midnight wine,
'Cos it's alright

Black and blue, black and blue,
I said come over here, baby,
And love me till I'm black and blue
Black and blue, black and blue,
I said come over here, baby,
And love me till I'm black and blue
I said come over here, baby,
And love me till I'm black and blue

Black and blue...
				

She got everything I need,
She makes me smile, she makes me bleed
'Cos she's a woman

She got the end, she got the means,
She's in my heart and in my dreams
An' it makes me cry I wanna make her mine

You're taking a walk on the wild sid
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer

I've got my love gun loaded,
I've got you in my sight,
I never take no for an answer,
So you'd better say yes tonight
I told you the score
Right from the start,
You'll never get to heaven
If you break my heart

So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me

You say you want my money,
I say you've got no sense,
If you just want to bleed me dry
Stay on your side of the fence
No mercy you can see
'Cos seven to eleven made a fool out of me

So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me

You're taking a walk on the wild side
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer

So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me...
				

Gypsy woman told me
I've got to walk the night
Like a fallen angel,
I'm blinded by the light
I need to find a love child,
Who never did no wrong
A superstitious woman
To love me all night long

Let me love you

My heart beats like a hammer,
I'm scared of being alone,
I never thought I'd see the day
I'd curse when I was born
Caught up in a fever, running hot 'n cold,
I need a sweet young woman
To satisfy my soul

Let me love you.

Nighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light,
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the night
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky,
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cry

Let me love you, let me love you

Let me love you, let me love you, let me love you

Gypsy woman told 'em
I've got to walk the night,
Like a fallen angel
I'm blinded by the light
Caught up in a fever running hot 'n' cold,
Need a sweet young woman to satisfy my soul

Let me love you.

Nighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light,
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the night
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky,
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cry

Let me love you...
				

Fly like an eagle,
An outlaw of the sun,
Stealing 'round your bedroom door
A case of hit 'n run
Sinner, sinner,
I'm no angel you can see

So I will tell you now
And I won't say it again,
Don't mess with me
Oh baby, don't mess with me

Ride like a demon,
The devil's only son
A whiskey drinking son of a bitch,
I've only just begun
Sinner, sinner,
I'm no angel you can see

I told you once before
And I won't say it again,
Don't mess with me,
Don't mess with me

Soothe me baby like I soothe you,
Treat me baby like I treat you
Soothe me baby like I soothe you,
Treat me baby like I...

Fly like an eagle
An outlaw of the sun,
Never take what sleeps around
But, always get your fun
Sinner, sinner,
You're no angel I can see

I told you once before
And I won't say it again,
Don't mess with me,
Don't mess with me

'Cos I'm a sinner
And sinners ain't the loving kind
				

I'm sad to say it's time to go
But, until we meet again along the road
Remember this on your journey home,
When you hear the thunder roar you're not alone

We wish you well, we wish you well,
In times of trouble may your hearts be strong
We wish you well, we wish you well,
Until we meet again,
We wish you well...
