Help me Jesus, show the way I can't hold on another day.... I was hungry, felling low, I just couldn't make out which way to go Chasing rainbows that have no end, The road is long without friend... Be my friend, be my brother, Be the piper, play the call.... Across the seven seas of wonder Be the guardian of my soul.... Just a young man looking homeward, Watching the sun go down again.... Across the water the sun is shining, But, will it ever be the same.... Be my friend, be my brother, Be the piper, play the call.... Across the seven seas of wonder Be the guardian of my soul.... I need somebody, I need someone, I need somebody to call my own.... Like a blindman I can feel the heat of the sun, But, like a blindman I don't know where it's coming from.... Be my friend, be my brother, Be the piper, play the call.... Across the seven seas of wonder Be the guardian of my soul.... I need somebody, I need someone, I need somebody to call my own.... Like a blindman I can feel the heat of the sun, But, like a blindman I don't know where is coming from.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3) Goldies Place (Coverdale) 5:03 I've been looking for shelter for a man walking in circles coming back again looking out your window waiting for a ride may not be the sweetest woman but I love the way you smile looks like I've been this way before knocking on the same old door tell me stranger have you seen the door my baby tried well you can shake it, fake it make me felt, so fine you can always tell a road rat but you know you got to draw the line like satin or lace, with a painted face I get my loving I leave no trace you can drop a bomb but it don't come free if you want you can do it for me follow me down, follow me down down to Goldie's place see you there Give me perfume garter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4) Whitesnake (Coverdale, Moody) 4:20 In the shadows of a dark night you need a woman by your side she'll help you make it in the cold light and give you all sun is fine if you want someone lovin drive you out of your mind give you a little sweetness and sugar just make sure she understands white skin women keep me howlin' for more brown skin honey oh no got a whitesnake mama you want to shake it mama you're a whitesnake mama don't you let it crawl on you you want to find a little angel sweet surrender in her eyes broke a heart in the morning to the moon is on the rise night time is the right time for rolling on the silent gloves daytime, nighttime, anytime is the right time spin it around and make some more Chorus back door man ain't done nothing but creep around the door when you this man creeping you hear the scrap when he comes night time is the right time for rolling on the silent gloves night time is the right time so make sure you're the only one Chorus You're a whitesnake mama (till end) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5) Time On My Side (Coverdale, Moody) 4:26 All my life I've been searchin' walking on easy ground son of my father been pushed around I've got the lord in my shadow the devil in my blood reaching for me baby gonna get you like a good man should like a gypsy traveling on down the road vagabond without virtue blessed before I won got to keep rolling with my back against the sun you never see me baby because I'm on the run I've got time on my side I don't need nobody to hold me time on my side just to prove what they told me time on my side freedom on my shoulder I'm gonna settle sown before I get much older Going on the dark side where the sun never shone never had nobody to Cry when I was born I'm glowing in the mirror I've got a ripper in my blood Ton can fool me baby I'm gonna get you like a good man should Chorus time on my side I don't need nobody Time on my side I've got the lord on my shoulder Time on my side I've got freedom Time on my side I don't need it at all Time on my side Devil, devil, devil in my blood time on my side, time on my side I don't need it anymore ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6) Peace Lovin' Man (Coverdale) 4:53 You changed your reason with a wave of your hand fill me with wonder like a child cause you never understand it's a son of it stays the same when it's over it's a crime to deny when it's gone cause you're only fooling yourself and nobody else it's a sin to carry, ton If you want to meet her later you whisper my name I say I never want to use you for your love but you come in and make it the same Verse cause I'm a man a peace lovin' man I'm so blind to hold it inside while I feel border line peace lovin' man Oh peace lovin' man, peace lovin man Verse 2 Cause I'm man baby I'm a man peace lovin man oh I', a peace lovin man baby I'm a man I'm a peace lovin man I can't use you anymore I'm a peace lovin man babe I'm a man Peace lovin man ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7) Sunny Days (Coverdale) 3:30 I'm tired of bars in Boston been feeling sodall in New York scared to come to Houston and I'm tired of feeling sore Don't want to draw a line baby don't want to set in no fight I just wanna go in a rock and roll show I'm unwinding get me higher remember to see how it is so before be keens pick up another mind tomorrow is good again you're so crazy the road can make you crazy made you bold-good as gold don't let it tear you up take me back to sunny days again I won't believe it till summer ends meet the end come and be your friend the lord can have me any day I'm a frayed Here, there, and everywhere no doubt about it I have my share claim to truth I've got my rock and roll shoes but I never, never thought I'd see the day when I'll be dancing alone baby baby while the music plays Chorus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8) Hole In The Sky (Coverdale) 3:22 Everyday I'm more confused in my life you're all I know laid your love before me I thought it would knock me down had me screaming in the morning there's a hole in the sky don't tell me you're sorry who cares there's a tear in my eye don't tell me you're sorry who cares used to be cool but I wait anymore (?) when you told me it was gone always playing love songs alone without you near I'll never make it on my own Chorus Now everytime I want to hold you to give you love that was made for
