Nickel in the Jar
I don’t play this song for money,
I don’t play for praise.
And I don’t care if they don’t like it,
Gonna play it anyway.
And if you want to go that far,
Put a nickel in the jar…
Put a nickel in the jar.
I don’t work for the corporation
And the pittance that they pay.
I gotta satisfy my soul
And let my fingers play.
And if you want to go that far,
Put a nickel in the jar…
Put a nickel in the jar.
And I will sit here all day long
Strumming on my favourite song.
I don’t care if they don’t like it,
I don’t care what they say.
I don’t care if they don’t buy it,
Gonna play it anyway…
Gonna play it anyway.
I don’t wanna be the next big deal,
A puppet on a string.
I just play it cos I like it,
It don’t mean a thing.
I don’t play this song for money,
I don’t play for praise.
And I don’t care if they don’t like it,
Gonna play it anyway.
And if you want to go that far,
Put a nickel in the jar…
Put a nickel in the jar.

Lucy’s Song
Come on little sleepy head
It’s time for you to go to bed
Catch hold of Mr Bear
Let’s take a walk upon the stair
You’ve had a long hard day
And now it’s time for us to say
‘Good night, sleep tight…’
Close your eyes and take a ride
Until you get to morning side
You’ll be the driver of an engine bright
On a magic journey through the night
Wherever your dreams take you
We’ll be there, we won’t forsake you
You know the night is not so dark
If you keep a dream alight in your heart
Wherever your dreams take you
We’ll be there, we won’t forsake you
‘Good night, sleep tight…’

Goodbye Mr Lenin

Goodbye Mr Lenin
Downtown Moscow on Old Arbat Street
You can hear the sound of so many marching feet.
Guess those old comrades wouldn’t recognise these parades -
Sweet little Moskvichka in her Gucci and her shades.
Goodbye Mr Lenin, I guess you’re in the shade,
Money’s the new religion, it’s all the rage
And comrade Josef would turn in his grave.
Downtown Moscow money oils the flow -
It runs like a thick black river through the Russian soul.
Downtown Moscow where the pretty people meet
You can smell it in the air - money is on heat!
Goodbye Mr Lenin, I guess you’re in the shade,
Money’s the new religion, it’s all the rage
And comrade Josef would turn in his grave.

Against The Rules
When she smiles her smile,
I fall so deep.
And when she calls out my name,
My knees tremble and I grow week.
Yes, I know that is crazy,
And I know I'm just a fool.
But I just can't stop loving you
Even it's against all the rules.
Will her lips say the word
That I long to hear?
And will her heart warm the heart
That longs to be near?
Yes I know, that it's crazy
And I know I'm just a fool.
But I just can't stop loving you
Even it's against all the rules.
No, I just can't stop loving you
Even though it's against all the rules.
No, I just can't stop loving
Even it's against all the rules.
Princess dancing in the snow,
My heart has far to go.

Last Train Home

LAST TRAIN HOME
I roamed the city streets
Got soaked to the bone
As the gentle summer rain
Turned into a storm
I called you on the telephone
But they said you had gone
Didn't leave a forwarding address
So I went to the station
With a heavy heart in my chest
And I caught the last train home
I returned the next day
So lonesome, lowdown and blue
I didn't know what to do
Without you
I called you on the telephone
But they confirmed you had gone
Didn't leave a forwarding address
So I went to the station
With a heavy heart in my chest
And I caught the last train home
