HOLD ON TIGHT Take my weight in your hands Tell me not to think at all Holdin’ on with no hands Wake me up against the day Won’t just sit and laugh away Take those days back that I owe And on your way down honey Cash in your chips for something to wear It gets real cold lying here And on your way down suga Sing your songs out to the clouds They all know you by name

MADE OF MISTAKES I AM I raise my hand I know I am the man I raise my voice it is my own choice I am my own home it lay where I go I am who I am made of mistakes I am Caught in a war again the same old sad song Watchin’ it play out as I stumble along It brightens my memory to hear the old tune Feel my own words as they’re coming from you Wanting more from you I whish could ask I feel as the fool no escape from the past

I Maintain 01:27
I MAINTAIN I’m down for the count It’s taken The full amount Choose to forgive And maintain I’ve mistaken all of my friends As I take aim I’ve mistaken all of my friends As I take aim

GIVE ME A WARNING Stay ‘til the morning has come Wait ‘til the morning to run Stay until morning has come Wait until morning to run Give me a warning Before you leave

AS I GET OLDER As I get older Being solidifies

ROCK & ROLL LIFE Smoke filled clothes they change my state I live my life by rock & roll Beer soaked fields they stain my feet Beat my way to center stage Rumors fly as they light the stage Held within is the key to life We’re not just prisoners here My heart’s on fire all opened up and free Come morning time with rock and roll I’m free Cigars smokes weed tokes they fill the air I live my life by rock and roll Crawl on top twenty outstretched hands I live my life by rock and roll Held within is the key to life We’re not just prisoners here My heart’s on fire all opened up and free Come morning time with rock and roll I’m free Keep groovin’ forever free

My Woman 03:42
MY WOMAN Welcome to her open arms, my woman Took me in from the crystal cold, my woman To simply look will freeze your mind, my woman Back for all but the same old lies, my woman Flowered hair purple heart My woman she is... near Back for all but the same old times, my woman Safe at home in rested sleep, my woman Woken by she fills my mind, my woman Leasin’ time we hope to share , my woman Hidin’ my body where no one can find me but you I took what was needed and never been cheated by you Shine of the moon light my fingers grip so tight on you Shinin’ bright star light kind of reminds me of you

I’VE GOT IT ALL Hazy shade of the summer Does it get any better High tide an the weather Winter couldn’t seem further You’ve got to know I’ve got it all He’s got it I’ve got it all today Lazy days bein’ tired Chillin’ cool by the fire Spark it up stoke it higher And would you call me a liar If I told this to you Have a look at my life And all that can be found All that’s needed to be Is what’s inside of me Have a look at our lives And all we can be now All that’s needed to be Is to believe we’re free
