    Monkey On My Back

    (Oh it's me and i've been down yeah
    got to get that monkey off my back)

    The fortune teller looked into my eyballs
    The wrinkles on her face about to crack
    She said ' You best believe it,
    You ain't goin' nowhere, unless you get that
    Monkey Off your back'

    I made believe the devil made me do it
    I was the evil leader of the pack
    You best believe I had it all and then I blew it
    Feelin' that fuckin' Monkey On My Back

    If you put it a spoon man I would boot it
    Some king whose mental house was just a shack
    Where do you draw the line when all your friends are dyin'
    You got to get that monkey off your back
    Uh, uh, uh....

    Your crystal ball is where you chase the dragon
    She said, 'now' I bring me home his head inside a sack
    But now you find your crystal balls are dragin'
    Got to get that monkey off your back

    (Chorus)
    Lovin' you has got to be

    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    Forget about your foolish pride
    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    Oh take me to the other side
    (Take Me To The Other Side)

    My mama told me there'd be days like this
    And man she wasn't foolin'
    'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss
    You opened up your moth with bated breath
    You opened up your mouth with baited breath

    You said you'd never leave me
    You love me, you hate me, I tried to take the loss
    You're cryin' me a river but I got to get across

    (Chorus)

    I'm lookin' for another kind of love
    Oh Lordy, how I need it
    The kind that likes to leap without a shove
    Oh honey, best believe it
    To save a lot of time and foolish pride
    I'll say what's on my mind, girl
    You love me, you hate me, You cut me down to size
    You blinded me with love and, yeah, it opened up my eyes

    Lovin' you has got to be
    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    Like the devil and the deep blue sea
    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    My conscience got to be my guide
    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    Oh honey, take me, take me, take, take, take, take

    Take me to The Other Side
    I'm lookin' for another kind of love
    Oh, Lordy, how I need it
    The kind that likes to leap without a shove
    Honey, you best believe it
    Now I ain't one for saying long goodbyes
    I hope all is forgiven
    You loved me, you hate me, I used to be your lover
    You know you had it coming, girl
    So take me to The Other Side
    Take me to The Other Side, take me to The Other Side

    Lovin' you has got to be
    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    Like the devil and the deep blue sea
    (Take Me To The Other Side)
    My conscience got to be my guide

    My Girl

    My Girl, she breathes hellfire
    And My Girl, she feeds my desire
    My Girl Sadie, she's the wind in my sails
    A puss'n boots lady with a cat o' nine tails
    Comin' after you honey, feet don't fail me now

    My Girl, she's bare back rider
    And My Girl, she's Lady Godiva
    She's a full time love no mon ami
    Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
    And it all rubs off on little old me, oh

    Slippin' in and out of love
    Slippin' in and out of love
    Slippin' in and out of love
    Slippin' in and out of love

    My Girl, she smokes barbed wire
    And My Girl, can't get no higher
    I made it with the lady and a one track mind
    Diamonds in the rought, they're so hard find
    Day after day, the same old grind
    And grind and grind and grind....

    My Girl, My Girl, My Girl, My Girl....

    My Girl, she's bare back rider
    And My Girl, she's Lady Godiva
    She's a full time love no mon ami
    Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
    And it all rubs off on little old me, oh

    Slippin' in and out of love
    Slippin' in and out of love
    Slippin' in and out of love
    Slippin' in and out of love

    Oh, My Girl!

    Don't Get Mad, Get Even

    Mmm.....

    I'll tell ya little secret
    make you wanna jump and shout
    When you talk to me in circles
    Take your foot out of your mouth
    It's hard enoguh to make it
    When you're livin' on the street
    And you want to tell somebody
    But you got to be discreet
    Then you catch your girlfriend
    With her skirt hiked up to here
    Honey, Don't Get Mad, Get Even

    (Corus)
    Don't Get Mad Get Even
    Don't Get Mad Get Even, yeah
    Don't Get Mad Get Even

    Say the times they be a-changing
    Though the blind lead the blind
    And you know your head is empty
    Though there's something on your mind
    Shackin' up with Lucy and when the morning comes
    You're with Sally in the Ally
    And the junkies and the bums
    You wonder why your girlfriend
    Has her skirt hiked up to here
    Honey, Don't Get Mad, Get Even

    (Chorus)
    (Spoken: ....till I can see the white o'
    your eyes, baby...just wait till I...
    I'm gonna fuck up, mm hmm, I'm gonna kick ass
    You just wai to see what I've got in store...)

    Roll the dice get lucky
    'Cause they roll ya for a dime
    You got nothing else to lose
    If ya only loose your mind
    When pleasure that is shallow
    Causes trouble to be deep
    You've been dusted with the devil
    While he sweeps you off your feet
    Huh,

    Tell you little secret
    Make you want to jump and shout
    When you talk to me in circles
    Take your foot out of your mouth
    It's hard enough to make it
    When you're livin' on the street
    And you hate to be a wise guy
    When your feet are inconcrete
    Sleeping with the dogs
    And you wake up with the fleas
    Honey, Don't Get Mad, Get Even

    (Chorus)

    Uh, uh, uh.....

    Hoodoo / Voodoo Medicine Man

    I was left as a child
    dragged from the cradle, I was weaned in the wild
    ran with the wolfpack, flesh torn to shreds
    in the compensations, I was left there for dead

    read it in the paper it ain't fair
    you know who today don't seem to care
    livin', lovin', gettin' loose
    masturbatin' with a noose
    now someone's kickin' out the chair

    some kind of voodoo
    come across this land
    some kind of voodoo
    voodoo medicine man

    everybody's lookin' at the sky
    don't believe the coverups and lies
    they been tellin' us since birth
    pissin' off old Mother Earth
    my gones are bygones prophesied

    get ready

    wonder should I go or should I stay
    'cause what we got ain't workin' anyway
    I did my best, God knows I tried
    I feel like I been crucified
    why did you take it all away

    voodoo, voodoo, medicine man [repeat]

    What It Takes

    There goes my old girlfriend
    There's another diamond ring
    And a all those late night promises
    I guess they don't mean a thing
    So baby, what's the story
    Did you find another man
    Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made
    When you don't look back I guess
    The feelings start to fade away
    I used to feel your fire
    But now it's cold inside
    And you're back on the street
    Like you didn't miss a beat, yeah

    Tell me what it takes to let you go
    Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
    Tell me how it is that you can sleep

    In the night, without thinkin' you lost
    Everything that was good in your life
    To the toss of the dice
    Tell me what it takes to let you go

    Yeah,

    Girl, before I met you, I was F.I.N.E - fine
    But your love made me a prisoner
    Yeah, my heart's been doing time
    You spent me up like money
    Then you hung me out to dry
    It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise
    'Cause you had me in deep
    With the devil in your eyes

    (Chorus)

    Guitar!

    Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    Tell me that it's better when you're all alone
    Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch
    Tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much
    Tell me you ain't dying
    When you're cryin' for me

    (Repeat Chorus)

    Tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice
    'Cause i don't wanna burn in Paradise
    Oh, let it go, let it go...

    I don't wanna burn....
