Cold Creole
Good Girl

Don't Call It Love
If You Love Her Leave Her
I Like To Eat
One Party Too Many
Tell You One More Time
Your Driving Me Crazy
Woe Woe Is Me

 

Cold Creole
it gets cold at night
and that harvest moon is shining big and bright
let it shine down on me

and when that thing get below zero
when the wind begins to blow

yea you'll know just where I'll be

well I don't know why it haunts me
I just know what I feel

burning down below, cold creole

well winter's here to stay
and I'm taking this thing darling day by day
but I know its going to be alright

well I don't know what you've been told
but I never thought it would get this cold
oh or that dark at night

sometime it just scares ya
makes it hard to catch your breath
turning rain to snow, cold creole

solo

well its cruel and its mean
but its the prettiest thing this boy's ever seen
but i miss you baby, and I miss New Orleans

but don't turn your back for a minute
cause you'll find yourself knee deep in it
with nowhere to run, and nowhere to hide

ah you don't realize that your dying
you just start feeling warm inside
tearing up your soul, cold creole



Good Girl
rlewis

I got my good girl on my arm
she’s my sweet little lucky charm
everywhere I go, everybody knows
I got my good girl on my arm

got my sweet thing next to me
she’s as nice as she can be
what did I do, she’s too good to be true
got my sweet thing next to me

wasn't looking for nothing but some fun
didn’t think I’d ever find my number one

got my good girl on my mind
she’s so lovin sweet and kind
fellas can’t you see, she’s so good for me
got my good girl on my mind

solo

she’s always on my mind constantly
don’t know how it happened
guess it was just meant to be

I got my good girl on my arm
she’s my sweet little lucky charm
everywhere I go, everybody knows
I got my good girl on my arm

I got my good girl on my arm
I got my good girl on my arm


Don’t Call it Love
rlewis

tell me what you want me to do
tell me what you want me to feel
you say this time its gonna be special
this time its gonna be real

you can tell me I’m the only one your thinking of
call it what you will but don’t call it love

take a look in the mirror baby
now take a good look at me
we can’t even stand ourselves no
and that’s the way its gonna be

you can pray to the heavens and the stars up above
call it what you will but don’t call it love

you were the girl we all dated back in my high school
I was the boy your daddy hated you talking to
now we’ve come together in the middle of the night
calling it love baby don’t seem right

solo

my mama always loved me, my daddy did too
but that kind of love I ain’t getting from you
as we cast a shadow against this neon light
calling it love baby don’t seem right

don’t bother giving me your number
I don’t want to call you on the phone
please don’t ask me where I live
I’d just wanna be alone

don’t tell me I’m the only one your dreaming of
call it what you will but don’t call it love

you can prey to heaven and the stars up above
call it what
call it what
call it what you will but don’t call it love

 


If You Love Her, Leave Her
rlewis

I know I’ve cheated (what did you do), I know I’ve lied (shame on you)
I’ve always been the one, pushing true love away
but this girl’s not like the others one’s, she’s different as night and day
I’m afraid she’s falling in love with me, all my friends say

If you love her, leave her, don’t believe her, when she says she’s in love with you
If you love her, leave her, don’t deceive her, into thinking your love is true
she don’t need the heartache and misery,
from the kind of guy I’ve always been
same old story again and again

I’ll take it easy (and nice and slow), if I’m careful (she’ll never know)
the funny kind of feeling, building up inside
I look at her and wonder, is this the way love’s suppose to be
I wanna hold her all night long, but my heart keeps telling me

If you love her, leave her, don’t believe her, when she says she’s in love with you
If you love her, leave her, don’t deceive her, into thinking your love is true
she don’t need the heartache and misery,
from the kind of guy I’ve always been
same old story again and again

solo

now I’m leaving (what can you do), and I’m hoping (and praying too)
that it’s not too late, for a poor boy like me
maybe I’ll start to figure out, what it takes to be a man
until then I’ll walk away, hoping she’ll understand

If you love her, leave her, don’t believe her, when she says she’s in love with you
If you love her, leave her, don’t deceive her, into thinking your love is true
she don’t need the heartache and misery
from the kind of guy I’ve always been
same old story again and again
same old story again and again
same old story again and again

 


I like To Eat
rlewis

greasy grill, break of day, salt and pepper, squeeze Parkay
couple eggs just floating in oil
coffee pot coming to a boil

when I was just a kid I never cleaned my plate
I use to be particular about what I ate
then I had ribs, fillet of Sole
next thing I knew I was out of control

I like to eat, how about you
lets go out and eat a chicken or two
I like to eat and it ain't no sin
set the table I'm about to begin

french cafe table for three, even my belly grumbled oui oui oui
excuse em ouw bon appetite
skip the french babe I just wanna eat

now when it comes to women I don't care how the look
my main concern is can the girl cook
but there's one recipe that I cook right
that's when I make love baby late at night

I like to eat, how about you
lets go out and start the barbeque
I like to eat and it ain't no sin
I get nervous when I hear the word thin

solo

well the girls gather round just wanna rub my belly
but I'm too busy eating two eggs toast and jelly

I like to eat, sure tastes great
I love being overweight
I like to eat and it ain't no lie
eat an eat baby till I die

dogs on a bun pups on a stick
give me a foot long buddy, make it quick
mashed, fried, baked till they're brown
potatoes make the world go round
nachos, tacos, cheese and chips
Ho Ho's, Twinkies, Banana Flips
fish chicken any kind of meat
these are the things that I like to eat

I like to eat, how about you
I need to find a love that's true
I like to eat and it ain't no sin
send me a woman with a double chin



One Party Too Many
rlewis

well I work hard every day and I earn every dime
and I spend all my pay, at the bar till closing time
just because its midnight, we can still have some fun
come on over to my house, the party’s just begun

one party too many, honey can’t you see
one party too many, it’s got a hold on me
one party too many, give me one more beer
one party too many, the party time is here

my wife sits at home with her modern romance books
when I sneak in the backdoor she’s giving me dirty looks
she’s told me once, told me twice, she don’t want my friends around
we’re drinking down in the basement, my world’s upside down

one party too many, I hear it in my head
one party too many, that’s what she said
one party too many, around the house I creep
one party too many, I can’t get no sleep

solo

another Saturday night out on the town, as I leave the bar behind
my car is full of all my friends, with one thing on my mind
when I try to open up the door the lock don’t fit my key
as I’m standing in the dark tonight, it finally dawns on me

one party too many, I wrecked a real good thing
one party too many, she gave me back my ring
one party too many, now I’m living alone
one party too many, broke up my home
one party too many, I hear it in my head
one party too many, that’s what she said
one party too many, I never had a clue
one party too many, my party days are through


Tell You One More Time
rlewis

yea I know I can be stubborn
yea I know I can be cruel
but can you find a way to forgive someone
who’s acted like the fool

and I know I treated you badly
when I said those things that night
but I never saw this coming
now I’m heading towards that light

can you hold me
can you hear me
can you give me some kind of sign
would you know me
if you saw me
standing on the corner one more time
this time I won’t be coming back yes it’s true
so I’ll tell you one more time
I love you

Solo

I keep thinking about how I hurt you
over and over inside my head
I keep telling you that I’m sorry
but you haven’t heard a word I said

takes a lifetime to make us happy
took two words to make you so sad
now I just realize my darling
you were the best thing I ever had

when I told you I didn’t love you
and you looked at me that way
till your in my arms here with me
I’m regretting every day

can you hold me
can you hear me
can you give me some kind of sign
would you know me
if you saw me
standing on the corner one more time
this time I won’t be coming back yes it’s true
so I’ll tell you one more time
I love you

this time I won’t be coming back yes it’s true
so I’ll tell you one more time
I love you

this time I won’t be coming back yes it’s true
so I’ll tell you one more time
I love you

so I’ll tell you one more time
so I’ll tell you one more time
so I’ll tell you one more time
I love you


Your Driving Me Crazy
rlewis


as I drove her off the showroom floor
everyone just stood and cheered
she rode real smooth first couple of years
until the final payment cleared

then a gasket blew outside the Poodle Club
as the people all gathered round
cost me five hundred bucks to get her back in shape
soon I was back riding round this town

you don’t need to be born with a wrench in you hand
to understand what I’m talking about
ooh baby your driving me crazy

the steering gets a little sloppy
when your turning and changing gears
but you can’t give up on that old jalopy
you learn to love just how she steers

I had to patch her up a couple of times
the damage didn’t look that bad
I didn’t pay attention to the warning signs
good money thrown at something bad

well she finally broke down outside my bedroom door
do you know what I’m talking about
ooh baby your driving me crazy

solo

got the dents polished out and painted up
but all that driving had taken its toll
put too high an octane in her tank
damn thing got out of control

finally took her in to a professional
but he didn’t like what he heard
I thought she only needed tune-up
he sat me down and gave me the word

he said son you'
ve done everything you could
do you know what I’m talking about

ooh baby your driving me crazy
ooh baby your driving me crazy

ooh baby your driving me crazy


Woe Woe Is Me
rlewis

looking out my window, and what do I see
storm clouds moving in, heading straight for me
I jump in my wheels, head clear across town
end up with a busted lip, from some drunken clown

woe woe is me, I‘m down on my knees
ain’t no sunshine on my backdoor
woe woe is me, honey can’t you see
trouble follows me, everywhere I go

hanging out with some buddies, in a poker game
up against some rounder, i didn't catch his name
betting al i got, on cowboys and twos
there goes my rent, and my worn out shoes

woe woe is me, I‘m down on my knees
ain’t no sunshine on my backdoor
woe woe is me, honey can’t you see
trouble follows me, everywhere I go

solo

standing at the alter, bout to say I do
my girl’s looking pretty, her sister too
oh oh in the front row what do I see
a girl with a baby, that looks just like me

woe woe is me, I‘m down on my knees
ain’t no sunshine on my backdoor
woe woe is me, honey can’t you see
trouble follows me, everywhere I go

woe woe is me, I‘m down on my knees
ain’t no sunshine on my backdoor
woe woe is me, honey can’t you see
trouble follows me, everywhere I go

woe woe is me....
