On My Way 2:25 (Copyright Bob Mau)

One sweet summer day I packed my bags, went on my way to do what I always wanted to do
I played and sang til I'd turn blue and the crowds loved every tune I'd do
I'm on my way to do what I do
I pulled myself from poverty
Into the lap of luxury
What success would bring I could not foresee
I kept my head did not fall for the scene
I did not do what the others do they said it's nice meeting you
They took the faster lane and I'm still on my way

I pulled myself from poverty
Into the lap of luxury
What success would bring I could not foresee
I kept my head did not fall for the scene
One sweet summer day I packed my bags, went on my way to do what I always wanted to do
I played at and sang until I'd turn blue when the crowds looked at me do not do
I'm on my way to do what I do
I pulled myself from poverty
Into the lap of luxury
What success would bring I could not foresee
I kept my head did not fall for the scene
It's been some years now I am here and they are gone let's carry on
They took the faster lane and I'm still on my way
One sweet summer day I packed my bags, went on my way to do what I always wanted to do

The great and free feeling music brings to you.

I feel something inside me
That moves my heart and my mind
Electricity is moving my feet
My heart and soul are now
dancing to the beat
Music drives me high
Music drives me high
Music is a shot of love in my veins
Music drives me high
Music drives me high
When the music and dancing end
The music in me remains
In my own world when the music plays
I feel the music flow through me
Moving to the tempo in a cloud of haze
With no worries or cares trouble free
Music is putting me in a trance
All I want to do is dance dance dance

I don't love you any more
But I don't love you any less
One thing that I adore
Is your lovingness,tenderness
kindness
Oh it's everything I love about you
It's everything you say and do to me
Your not good you are the best for me
It's everything the way you love and tell me
You will be mine for eternity
Too many things enter my mind
And there is nothing I can do
To stop me thinking all the time
About your warming kiss,
fragrantness, womanness
Oh It's everything I love about you
Should there ever come a day
You feel that I don't show my love
I know exactly what you'll do
You will set me straight
Then show me how much I love you

151

When I saw the light
It made me feel much better
When I saw the light
I could handle stormy weather
I could finally sleep good at night
When I saw the light
The Church bells were ringing all night
When I saw the light oh Lord
There was a time
A very good time
When I could feel you love and
we would make it through the night
Last night you entered your house with a new friend
My heart was torn about
When the light by your front door was turned out
I could not see the light
The Church bells stoped ringing that night
I could not see the light
Turn on the light by your front door
Until it blinds me tonight
Please let me see the light
I have to see the light

The Likes Of Me
You'll never find the likes of me
You'll never find the likes of me
Long time ago in our younger days,
We would dance in the rain never feeling pain
In the flowered fields we would run and play games
Then make love in the summers sky above
You'll never find the likes of me
You'll never find the likes of me
Traveling in our van through out our broken land
We showed discontent for the government
Livin' off our wits we made our feelings known
And shared our love that had grown
You'll never find the likes of me
You'll never find the likes of me
I'd wipe your tears when you were blue
You could count on me taking care of you
You'll never find the likes of me
You'll never find the likes of me
As times were a changing your mind had settled down
To accept less than the truth a new life you had found
You said please don't ever change
I'll love you till the end then we parted friends
You'll never find the likes of me
You'll never find the likes of me
As I rally on the streets today
To fight for peace and truth
I feel someone tugging at my arm
In happiness I see it's you saying lets do it again
Let's do what we used to do
You'll never find the likes of me
But you did again
I guess you found the likes of me
Good things come out of what we stand for
In the world we live today it must be done once more
I guess you found the likes of me once again
I guess you found the likes of me my dear lovin, friend
I guess you found the likes of me

Cross Road 4:35 (Copyright Bob Mau)

Long road has taken me far away
To cross a road in my life, which road do I take
Can't turn back the way I came, It was filled with hate
It's a mystery how I got this far, It must be fate
A cross road to my right, a cross road to my left
One cross road brings life, the other brings me death
At the cross road I'm turning right and I can see
Down the road my habits broke
I'm freed from haunting dreams
To the left is darkness all I can see
Are the shadows and nightmares of what I used to be
My habit lures me left, my common sense says right
At the cross road hooked on left
It's time for me to fight for my life
Standing at the crossroad, dirt blowing in my face
Crossroad wind whispers, get back in the race

Every time

Cool nights candle light a glass of wine for two
Phone calls, long walks, starts me thinking of you
In my mind I see your smile
Oh how I love your tender style
Every time I hold you darling feels like the first time to me
Every time IÃ?Â?m with you darling IÃ?Â?m in ecstasy
Every time I touch you, you make my life complete
Every time IÃ?Â?m with you darling Its all brand new to me
Like a stallion running up a hill
You keep my pulse pumping
Every time youÃ?Â?re close to me
You make my heart start jumping
Every time I hold you
Every time I see you
Every time I touch you
Feels like the first time to me

Without A Sound 5:45 (Copyright Bob Mau)

The Autumn leaves tumble down from the trees
They float like feathers to the ground
Without a sound, without a sound
You look at me, I look at you
We both know what's going down
Without a sound, without a sound
No words need be spoken here
Our thoughts and sight get us around
Without a sound, without a sound
Silence as we move together gently
It's telepathy between you and me
It's done without a sound

Speeding down the highway just as fast as I can
The're after me I don't know why cause I did not shoot a man
At the county fair six rich boys approached my sister Nell
My little brother Bobby told them all to go to hell
I don't know why I don't know why they approached my little sister Nell
I don't know why I don't know why they had bad intentions toward my little sister Nell
Then a fight broke out it was six to one
They beat my brother Bobby in the name of fun
I don't know why I don't know why
The gang leader was the sheriffs son (2x)
Two friends saw the commotion so we ran down to the scene
Seeing Bobby getting beat that's when we intervened
Six to three we beat those boys right into the ground
The crowd started cheering us then we heard that sound
I don't know why I don't know why someone shot a gun (2X)
We all went running saw Nell and Bobby head for home
I jumped into my car and being all alone
Headed down the highway then I saw the flashing lights
No more use to run I knew it's not my night
I don't know why I don't know why it doesn't seem to be my day (2X)
I pulled off the highway two cops approached my car
After beating up the sheriffs son I may have gone to far
The officers questioned me all about the fight
I told them both my story then they said it was all right
We arrested the punk the sheriffs son and threw his ass in jail
His dad heard what he did slapped him up then posted bail
The shot you heard was a blank we were breaking up the crowd
The three of you and Bobby did your family proud
I don't know why I don't know why I got scared and ran away
I don't know why I don't know why some how everything is gonna be OK
Now about your speeding we both want you to know
You're not down south you'er Midwest grown we're gonna let you go
We understand why you ran when you heard that shot
You Bobby and your friends were the hero's thanks a lot
I don't know why I don't know why we were hero's of the day (2x)
I don't know why

With the true love of a woman a man can be turned around 360 degrees from a bum to a success.

You are the one who put the soul in my soul
Turned me to hot when I was on cold
Stopped thinking about me started thinking of you
Tell you right now babe
It was the right thing toy do
It was the right thing to do
Set my sights on success real low
Had a real hard time to achieve that goal
Never quite made it but that's nothing new
Then you inspired me babe
That was the right thing to do
Being a bum was OK by me
You saw something else and like disagreed
Brought out my best side I never knew
How deep my love runs but for only you
You are my treasure believe it or not
We spun the wheel of love and hit the jack pot
You ask nothing of me I ask nothing from you
It comes from our hearts babe
Now that's the right thing to
That's the right thing to do
Now that I've explained my love for you
Let us grow together and make our dreams come true
Our bond is so strong it's like crazy glue
We give it up for each other
We love and need each other
We're going to be one not two
Cause it's the right thing to do
It is the right thing to do

Moving Love Ballad

I may get turned on by other
Woman that I see
I come home and find the
Perfect woman meant for me
You're the perfect woman
Meant for me
You take care of everything
Put up with things I've done
Never said a harsh word or Been cruel to anyone
For me you are the
Perfect woman
When you were made they
Threw away the mold
You're the story book princess
In my life
A soft and caring heart is in
The love you behold
You're the perfect woman
And the perfect wife

Often my darling
And I want you to know that
You alone have changed my way Of life
But even more important
I have to tell you how much

Love you

The words I've been longing to hear
Say lady we will disapppear
Into our tomb of love
I'll be your soul mate
Say lady I'm yours

A vision of our world through one persons eyes.

Put your eyes inside mine
Tell me what you see
Is our world of beauty and tranquility
Your eyes don't lie to you
Mine don't lie to me
Look at it for what it is
There's no mystery
My eyes have seen the rise and fall of harmony
Starting with the hope of love
Then hate to jealous
It's not pretty sometimes what my eyes see
I've tried saying what people want to hear
I've tried playing the games they love so dear
When your not wanted no one knows your name
When you succeed false friends share in your fame
It's ugly some times what my eyes see
I'de like to fly in a space ship far away
And leave it all behind if only for one day
Then return to a world of peace and harmony
This is what my eyes see this is what my eyes see
I behold the sunrise in the blue majestic sky
I'm content to watch the sea softly rolling by
I see tenderness shown in lovers eyes
T noticed good times had on a natural high
It's pretty sometimes what my eyes see
It's pretty sometimes what my eyes see
It's so pretty sometimes what my eyes see

A beautiful love gone bad

True story

You said you were going said you were free
Of the way I treated you and you treated me
We are two good people who can't seem to agree
So it's time to say so long and let each other be
Something happened don't know what
We have never been the same
Two good people once in love
Now at odds we're both to blame
We simply tolerate each other
Every word leads to a fight
Two good people more like sister and brother
Two good people that don't deserve each other
Two good people with a bond so strong
Thought it would be endless as time went on
Two good people knowing love was gone
Now speak to each other like a sad song

Attitude that money can bring

Been out to LA where the spirits run free
Manhattan Island in New York
Then to Chicago full of hospitality
Many women had me in every port
To no avail they tried to settle me down
I'm still in circulation in every town
It's in my blood
That's what I'm made for
Don't foresee me letting it go
It's in my blood
That's what I'm made for
I'll keep my love show traveling the road
Traveling the road
Caught a flight went to Arizona
The hot weather felt so good
Hopped on my Harley and did the Bad Lands
And all the woman that I could
To no avail they tried to settle me down
I'm still in circulation in every town
If you want to take a chance understand
Your just another woman I'll make love too
If you are looking for a long term romance remember this
I'll discard you
How do I do this traveling around
Making love to all the willing girls in town
I made my money the old fashion way
using common sense and a huge inheritance

It's great to be back home after being on the road for some time.

This is how I felt after being on the road then getting back home.

Too many lonely days and nights
And I've been missing you
Too many lonely days and nights
And Ive been missing you
I'm on the last flight in
I see you waiting for me
In the airport at arrivals
And there you are waiting for me
No more lonely days and nights
I see you running toward me
Our arms are open wide
As we caress we may be making a scene
No more lonely days and nights
No more lonely days and nights
Sharing a tender smile
Knowing how much we love each other
I'de make love to you right her
But that may be going to far my dear
No more lonely days and nights
Lets get home
If distance makes the heart grow fonder
Then our love could never be much stronger
I want to get home to hug our kids
Then make love to their mother
No more lonely days and nights
I'm finally home
No more lonely days and nights

A story of a mans domination and arrogance over his weak womans love for him.

Mad lover
I'm a mad lover out of control
Got a heart of ice, ain't got no soul
I'll leave you lonely when my job is through
Your my floor I'll walk all over you
The mad lover wants you sleezy and low
Obey my commands or you will have to go
You crawl all over me no matter what I do
I'll lead you on cause I don't care about you
The mad lover will always, always haunt you
You know how much really, really want to
Give yourself to the mad lovers wishes
I am the mad lover, I am delicious
The mad lover is me
You dream of me, I'm your fantasy
I'm all you see, your in love with me
The mad lover's me
The mad lover is me
