Woke up lonely this morning Got no reason to be The city got me like a prisoner I gotta get me set free I'm going to Miami I gotta get away The sea and the sunshine Miami FLA I got no job to hold me I got no money i know Don't you try to talk me down My cool is about to blow I'm going to Miami I gotta get away The sea and the sunshine Miami FLA I got the blues most everyday They go around in my head This city livin' ain't got no soul One day you'll find me dead I'm going to Miami I gotta get away The sea and the sunshine Miami FLA © 2016 D.

Never been much for black leather Always been more about the suede I don't mind an old pair of corduroys Leave the tight pants for the stage I don't need to possess you or profit From your insecurities I got enough of my own I'll be shuffling on a city street Listening to Leon Shootout on the headphones Grooving on the uptown 6 The girls used to get shy when I pass by Guess I'm losing all my tricks Being older and layin back Ain't really my style So let's hit the club tonight You be my Pisces Apple Lady Listening to Leon I'll see u on the weekend Hanging with the kid Talk about the groove on Tightrope And the vintage flares u just bid We'll take a little step away From this moment of time And get swept away On a Dixie Lullaby Listening to Leon © 2016 D.

Had a wild night in Waco With a brown eyed girl from Abilene She was dancing to some Tony Joe Shaking like a tambourine So you think you might get lucky boy By the look way she looks you in the eye But if you think you got her under your control Man you don't know rock n roll Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She don’t play when the sun goes down Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She got your head spinning round and round She got sunshine in her eyes She got full moons every night Whiskey drinking start a fight Ain’t no preacher set her right Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She don’t play when the sun goes down Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She got your head spinning round and roun She got green grass growing high Cotton fields and lullabies Country strong and city wise Honky tonks and starry skies Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She don’t play when the sun goes down Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She got your head spinning round and roun She got oil men back at home Making dates down in San Antone Send you packing for the railroad She gonna ditch ya at the Alamo Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She don’t play when the sun goes down Don’t mess with the girl from Texas She got your head spinning round and round © 2012/2016 D.

I was born on the Rolling Stones Van Morrison's Domino I was raised on raised on rock n roll Jimmy Page and my air guitar Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from Mars I was raised on raised on rock n roll Left the city for the Mississippi blues Left the job for blue suede shoes I was raised on raised on rock n roll Fly like an eagle you can't hold me down I play my 12 bar blues from town to town I was raised on raised on rock n roll Revolution and Two of Us Lucy in the sky and the Walrus Sign of the Times and November Rain Southern Man and the Hurricane She like to turn her Jimi up to 10 Spin Electric Ladyland again She was raised on raised on rock n roll Judy Blue Eyes looking straight through you And Do u Feel Like We Do She raised on raised on rock n roll Revolution and Two of Us Lucy in the sky and the Walrus Sign of the Times and November Rain Southern Man and the Hurricane We gonna rage in the midnight hour Two lovers rise like a tower of power We were raised on raised on rock n roll Nobody ever gonna hold us down We got it going on we'll take this town We were raised on raised on rock n roll Revolution and Two of Us Lucy in the sky and the Walrus Sign of the Times and November Rain Southern Man and the Hurricane © 2016 D.

Something heavy going down You can feel it all around Started out just once or twice Now it's fire melting ice Keep confessions to yourself Try to protect mental health Like a rollercoaster ride This is love electrified He's the one you heard about Momma warns you daddy shoutszuu He's the boy across the tracks Late at night he's coming back Got the fire he's got the spice Got the bad he's got the nice Lightning bolt and rod collide This is love electrified Hear him on the midnight prowl When you whisper he will howl And the moon is full and white And the world is out of sight No resistance to the charm Disconnect the smoke alarm No one gets deeper inside This is love electrified © 2016 D.

The world is running out of precious time You pushed me over the thin red line I had enough of making minimum wage hey People in the neighborhood we fillin with rage Yeah you feeding me a GMO I'm wearing China made from head to toe You got your money and your diamond in the back hey We lifting cell phones at the radio shack You keep us stupid cause you're clever like a king We got the numbers yeah you feel the sting We getting higher getting organized Some of the 99 percent are bound to rise You might be worried in your gated mansion Feel the pressure cooker oppression Don't you rely on daddy's wall st. plan Better watch your back don't underestimate the working man The plan was put together long ago Don't let the masses know the knowledge you know You know we're talking bout the new world order Governments and corporations blurring the border All the princes all the diplomats Secret societies and many fat cats Gonna test you fill you up with meaningless sex Gonna give you super sonic megaplex Control the media control the chiefs Own the satellite and the cable tv Go on and get your channels get your free app They got you dialed and they know where you're at Tracking the data of the consumer Selling information to the highest bidder GIve it away get along get along give it up to the upper hand Better keep it straight don't underestimate the working man Who can you blame who can you trust who can you burn Everyday there is a lesson to be learned Too far along, cashed out and much too late Who's gonna be the one to give it to ya straight Tell the children tell the fathers and the moms We're building networks while you're building bombs I do believe there is no us and them But can you trust your fellow citizen Get it up get it out get it on and raise the flag Your baby's dreaming in a body bag A soldier's wasted life for world control No meditation gonna spare the soul You got your guns you got your lock and load You gonna hole up in a lead fox hole We gonna bullet proof the minivan Better watch your back don't underestimate the working man ©2014 D.

Cocaine kisses Whiskey nights Loose lipped lovers Drunken fights Morning headaches Walks of shame Already forgot Her last name Walking tall Feelin high Make it last Till morning light Keep the music Beating on Rock the DJ One more song She's going to Cali It ain't that far Making movies Bout rock stars She's a rock n roll queen On the NY city scene I'm feeling good The way I should Do it everyday If I could Won't u meet me in the john We'll make it last the whole night long Cocaine kisses Whiskey nights Loose lipped lovers Drunken fights Morning headaches Walks of shame Already forgot Her last name © 2016 D.

You better watch out Where you put your time these days When you share your lovin ways Where you put your heart Your baby was shrewd Left you with a cold blank stare Made you pay the whole cab fare And walked on She’s gone She’s gone When she let go she was gone Yeah i guess you never knew The kind of damage love could do The kind that makes you crack in two The kind that takes a life A grown man losing pride To keep his woman satisfied Doesn’t matter what you tried You were on your own She’s gone She’s gone When she let go she was gone And now theres people Asking how she’s doing alone Ask you whereabouts unknown And whos she seeing Living on the back streets She’s making love to deadbeats Dancing on her bare feet Wasting her soul She’s gone She’s gone When she let go she was gone ©2010 D.

I don't know if you'll ever get the message I don't know if you'll ever change I just see what's straight in front of me And a weapon about to unload at close range You say you can't live with him For everything he's destroyed and done But can you walk the line And watch the world decline When you pull the trigger of the gun If your enemy is hungry would u feed him If he's thirsty would u give him water to drink If he slaps you across your face Would you turn the other cheek. You say you can't live with him For everything he's destroyed and done But can you walk the line And watch the world decline When you pull the trigger of the gun Neither one of us can predict the future Neither one of us knows what's coming next We know this world has got some problems And the solutions are so complex You say you can't live with him For everything he's destroyed and done But can you walk the line And watch the world decline When you pull the trigger of the gun © 2016 D.
