Golden Boy 02:50
Golden boy you've got a hold on me What a sight, if only I could see But golden boy you're blinding me Something's coming over me Golden boy it's hard to believe That you light up a room and take it back when you leave Golden boy, you are my joy and my grief Something's coming over me I'm floating in a dream I'm punch-drunk and I'm needing Good company Golden boy take me under your wing Giving me one and every reason to sing No one boy has got the light that you bring Shine it down and through me Shed a little light, shed a little light I'm floating in a dream I'm punch-drunk and I'm needing Good company Golden boy glow through the trees You're one with the sunshine and one with the breeze One with the shiver that's running through me Golden boy you're all I need

Have a Heart 03:45
As far as the eye can see Nothing more no less I’m blind to all above and below To east or west You say it best Unless I’m blessed with ears As biased as these eyes of mine These eyes of mine These eyes of mine Oh darling have a heart For these poor eyes of mine As far as thee I can reach Nothing more no less My arms won’t move but you Across the sea they’d stretch And I’m a wreck Here aching for your arms in mine These arms of mine These arms of mine Oh darling lend a hand To these poor arms of mine And I won’t be smiling til I see you again And I can’t stop dreaming I might Be the one you’d long to have by side The one you’d kiss good night And I won’t be smiling till I see you again And I can’t stop dreaming I might Ae the one you’d long to have by side The one you’d kiss good night And I won’t be smiling till I see you again And I can’t stop dreaming I might Be the one you’d long to have by side The one you’d kiss tonight The one you’d kiss tonight The one you’d kiss tonight As far the eye can see Nothing more no less I’m blind to all above and below To east or west I’ll do my best And never less To give you all that’s in this heart of mine This heart of mine This heart of mine Oh darling be the one for this poor heart of mine

Thirteen 03:20
Won't you let me walk you home from school Won't you let me meet you at the pool Maybe Friday I can Get tickets for the dance And I'll take you Won't you tell your dad, "Get off my back" Tell him what we said 'bout 'Paint It Black' Rock 'n Roll is here to stay Come inside where it's okay And I'll shake you Won't you tell me what you're thinking of Would you be an outlaw for my love If it's so, well, let me know If it's "no", well, I can go I won't make you

Liquor 04:00
You can hold your liquor Only getting sweeter by the sip My little fingers Wrestle yours and find a perfect grip Your thumb’s too big To wrap around, so I guess I’ll tuck My little one down It’s so obvious Don’t say anything Cuz I know, I know Maybe we should bicker But we’ve never been the types To get all bothered Over little things, for little fights You’ll never be the one to blame You're off scot free Oh what a cryin’ shame It’s so obvious Don’t say anything Cuz I know, I know

Dinah 02:38
Dinah what you doing in this kitchen all alone? Sky is mighty fine tonight the stars are shining low Oh and what a crying shame it’d be to let it go So Dinah come a walking with me slow Dinah why you hiding out on this summer’s night? Tucked up in the kitchen when the moon’s so bright Dinah I've been dreaming of making you my wife So take a little stroll with me tonight Dinah oh Dinah See what you’ve been missing Dinah oh Dinah I don’t care who’s listening Every neighbour knows that you’ve got someone in your kitchen They’re singing Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah Someone I know A stand up gentleman who’s going to steal her heart away And it’s about good time she let it go Dinah you’re the fairest of them all across the land Dinah for you I’ll always be a better man Never was a better time to offer you my hand So Dinah let me know where you stand Dinah you’ve been waiting in this kitchen all alone Waiting for your own true love but scared to let it go You don’t need to worry Won’t ever let you go So Dinah come a walking with me slow They’re singing Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah Someone I know A stand up gentleman who’s going to steal her heart away And it’s about good time she let it go
