The World Spins
Verse 1
The world spins and it never ends
There are people in every place
The world turns but we never learn
To give each other grace
We maim and kill, there’s hatred still
For people of another race
We want what’s theirs and we don’t care
If we take away their space
CHORUS
Were headed for the end
Just as we begin
To try to find a way
To live another way
Verse 2
We march on, to the drums
Of fire, hate and war
Who knows where it ends
Or what the future holds in store
It could be we will never see
The sunlight anymore
Only winter and only dark
From a major war
CHORUS
Jesse Ed Davis
Verse 1
Jesse Ed Davis, was the best
Years and years ahead of the rest
At playing the guitar
He was the best by far
Yes, the best by far
CHORUS
We miss you Jesse Ed
We’re so sorry you’re dead
And the way that you died
Almost makes us cry
Verse 2
Jesse Ed Davis, you were great
It’s oh so hard to accept your fate
When you crafted a lead
You played it so sweet
Yes, you played it so sweet
CHORUS
Instrumental
Verse 3
All of the best
Were aware of your skill
When you played your guitar
It was always a thrill
Yes, it was always at thrill
CHORUS
CHORUS
She’s Magic
Verse 1
She can pick you up
When you’re feelin down
She’s a powerful force to be around
She can lift your mood
When you’re feelin low
She will squeeze you tight
And not let go
CHORUS
She’s magic – no doubt about that
She will take you there and bring you back
She’s magic – no doubt about that
She will take you there and bring you back
Verse 2
She can mess you mind
Any time
She’s a powerful force
One of a kind
She can lift your mood
When you’re feelin low
She will hold you tight
And not let go
CHORUS
Instrumental
CHORUS
Where Are You
Verse 1
It’s been three long years now
I haven’t seen your face
I’ve looked and looked
And looked for you
Since I fell from grace
I’ve searched for you everyday
And almost everywhere
I can’t think of where you’d be
But you know I still care
CHORUS
I remember the times we had
Waiting for the sun
We would laugh and talk all night
It was so much fun
Verse 2
The day you said goodbye to me
It hurt so much inside
I’ve searched and searched
And searched for you
I’ve really, really tried
I’ve searched for you everyday
And almost everywhere
I can’t think of where you’d be
But you know I still care
CHORUS
Frankie Lovato
Verse 1
Vincent Martinez beat his wife
Later he threatened her life
She called the police but when
They arrived, Vincent was nowhere in sight
So they shot Lovato by mistake
They shot him down like a dog
They shot him down like a dog
They gunned him down like a dog
CHORUS
If you’re poor and live in Denver
Please remember to lock your windows at night
The police may enter, shoot you and say it’s alright
Shoot you and say it’s alright
Verse 2
Martinez is sorry now
Sorry they shot the wrong man
I should have been him, so he says
He’s sorry his friend is dead
They shot Lovato while he slept
They shot him down like a dog
They shot him down like a dog
They gunned him down like a dog
CHORUS
Verse 3
The police are sorry now
Sorry they shot the wrong man
They mistook a can for a gun
“It could happen to anyone”
They shoot Lovato while he slept
They shot him down like a dog
They shot him down like a dog
They gunned him down like a dog
CHORUS
CHORUS
See The World
Verse 1
We discussed our plans
Travel in foreign lands
Paris and tropical sands
While playing in a band
CHORUS
We’d see the world
And have some fun
Make some money
And enjoy the sun
We’d see the world
And have some fun
Make some money
And enjoy the sun
Verse 2
The years passed on
I still haven’t gone
The years passed on
Today I mow the lawn
CHORUS
Verse 3
Now that I am old
My dreams have gone cold
Now that I am old
I know I’ve missed the show
CHORUS
I Wish I Could Help You
Verse 1
How you’ve changed my good friend
I hardly know you anymore
Each time I see, the wolf is at your door
I hardly know you anymore
CHORUS
I wish I could help you
But I don’t know what to do
I wish I could help you
But I don’t know what to do
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Verse 2
I know you try to keep your fears at bay
But you seem to lose ground each and every day
I know you try to find a better way
But you seem to lose ground each and every day
CHORUS
Repeat First Verse
CHORUS
Think It Over
Verse 1
The time has come to think it over now
Take some time to mull it over now
The time has come to think it over now
Take some time to mull it over now

Sex, Drugs, & Rock N' Roll
Verse 1
My life is so mundane
I want to go insane
Always the same old thing
Life’s become a lame routine
Chorus
Sex, drugs & rock n roll
I can’t seem to free my soul
Sex, drugs & rock n roll
Even that is getting old
Verse 2
My life is such a bore
Girls, girls, door to door
I can’t take it anymore
I’m ready to hit the floor
Chorus
Verse 3
My life is such a bore
Stacks of cash in my drawer
I can’t take it anymore
I can’t take it anymore
Chorus
My Old Friend Smack
Verse 1
I had a friend in High School
Behind his back, we called him smack
He lived to smoke pot
He used a lot, but never got caught
CHORUS
He smoked the weed
And mixed it with speed
He would concede
He’s a druggie, in deed
Verse 2
I saw him many years later
He didn’t look straighter
Because he lived to smoke pot
It was jail, more often than not
CHORUS
Verse 3
I read about him last week
He got a job on Wall Stree
tI guess he made the big time
Now everything is just fine
CHORUS
