Oh, Jim 03:33
All your two-bit friends They're shootin' you up with pills They said that it was good for you That it would cure your ills I don't care just where it's at I'm just like an alley cat And when you're filled up to here with hate Don't you know you gotta get it straight Filled up to here with hate Beat her black and blue and get it straight Do, do, do, do, do, do When you're lookin' through the eyes of hate All your two-bit friends They asked you for your autograph They put you on the stage They thought it'd be good for a laugh But I don't care just where it's at 'Cause honey, I'm just like an alley cat And when you're filled up to here with hate Don't you know you gotta get it straight Filled up to here with hate Beat her black and blue and get it straight Uh-huh Oh, Jim How could you treat me this way Hey, hey, hey How could you treat me this way Oh, Jim How could you treat me this way Hey, hey How could you treat me this way You know you broke my heart Ever since you went away Now you said that you love us But you only make love to one of us Oh, oh, oh, oh, Jim How could you treat me this way You know you broke my heart Ever since you went away When you're looking through the eyes of hate Oh, oh, oh, oh When you're looking through the eyes of hate Oh, oh, oh, oh When you're looking through the eyes of hate Oh, oh, oh, oh When you're looking through the eyes of hate Oh, oh, oh, oh When you're looking through the eyes of hate Oh, oh, oh, oh When you're looking through the eyes of hate Oh, oh, oh, oh

Sweet Jane 04:06
Standin' on a corner Suitcase in my hand Jack's in his corset, Jane is in her vest and me I'm in a rock 'n' roll band. Huh. Riding a Stutz Bear Cat, Jim ya know, those were different times all the poets studied rules of verse and those ladies they rolled their eyes Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Now Jack, he is a banker and Jane, she's a clerk and both of them save their monies when they get home from work sittin downby the fire Ooo, the radio does play the classical music there, Jim The March of the Wooden Soldiers All you protest kids you can hear Jack say Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Some people they like to go out dancin and other people they have to work. Just watch me now and there's even some evil mothers Well there gonna tell you that everthing is just dirt you know that women never really faint and that villians always blink their eyes that children are the only ones who blush and that life is just to die But anyone who ever had a heart they wouldn't turn around and break it and anyone who ever played a part They wouldn't turn around and hate it Sweet Jane, Sweet Sweet Jane

The Kids 05:49
They're taking her children away Because they said she was not a good mother They're taking her children away Because she was making it with sisters and brothers And everyone else, all of the others Like cheap officers who would stand there and flirt in front of me They're taking her children away Because they said she was not a good mother They're taking her children away Because of the things that they heard she had done The black Air Force sergeant was not the first one And all of the drugs she took, every one, every one And I am the Water Boy, the real game's not over here But my heart is overflowin' anyway I'm just a tired man, no words to say But since she lost her daughter It's her eyes that fill with water And I am much happier this way They're taking her children away Because they said she was not a good mother They're taking her children away Because number on was the girl friend from Paris The things that they did - ah - they didn't have to ask us And then the Welshman from India, who came here to stay They're taking her children away Because they said she was not a good mother They're taking her children away Because of the things she did in the streets In the alleys and bars, no she couldn't be beat That miserable rotten slut couldn't turn anyone away I am the Water Boy, the real game's not over here But my heart is overflowin' anyway I'm just a tired man, no words to say But since she lost her daughter It's her eyes that fill with water And I am much happier this way

She says, what do you call love Well I call it harry Oh, please I'm being serious What do you call love Well I don't call it family and I don't call it lust And as we all know marriage isn't a must And I suppose in the end, it's a matter of trust If I had to I'd call love time She says, what do you call love Can't you be more specific What do you call love Is it more than the heart's hieroglyphic Well for me time has no meaning, no future, no past And when you're in love, you don't have to ask There's never enough time to hold love in your grasp Turning time around Turning time around That is what love is Turning time around Yes, that is what love is My time is your time when you're in love And time is what you never have enough of You can't see or hold it, it's exactly like love Turning time around Turning time around Turning time around Turning time around Turning time around Well I gotta have it I gotta-gotta-gotta have it Turning, turning time around Gotta have it, turning time around Turning, turning time around Turning time around

Lady Day 03:11
When she walked on down the street She was like a child staring at her feet But when she passed the bar And she heard the music play She had to go in and sing It had to be that way She had to go in and sing It had to be that way And I said no, no, no Oh, Lady Day And I said no, no, no Oh, Lady Day After the applause had died down And the people drifted away She climbed down the bar And went out the door To the hotel That she called home It had greenish walls A bathroom in the hall And I said no, no, no Oh, Lady Day And I said no, no, no Oh, Lady Day
