Shaky Groove - Lyrics

Get On It (top)

Hey, don't you to go to the midnight show
And hit the park, before it starts
I go through the door at the record store
And start to slip, the kung-fu grip

You feel it, you want it
You get down, get on it
You see it, you move it
You get down, and groove it

I used to break the rules out behind the school
The parking lot, the mini-mart
And I got the trust at the back of the bus
The afternoon, the end of June

You feel it, you want it
You get down, get on it
You see it, you move it
You get down, and groove it

You feel it, you want it
You get down, get on it
The music, the motion
The swaying, the ocean
You see it, you move it
You get down, and groove it

You're the king of the road
Betcha nobody knows
You hit the car behind the bar
You didn't read the sign on the assembly line
It made a spark and broke apart

Hey, you got a new attitude
You don't feel the pain
That they're putting you through
You don't believe it do you

Hey, don't you wanna go to the midnight show
Meet me, at the door in the back
Yeah, bring the beer in the back pack

You feel it, you want it
You get down, get on it
The music, the motion
The swaying, the ocean
You see it, you move it
You get down, and groove it

Hey, yo, what you waiting for
1 2 3 go

To Be With You (top)

I've seen Nevada
I've seen Manhattan

The moves I make
The things I do to get away
I made mistakes
It changes everything
Now I've got a lifetime
To see what it means

I caught that plane
You might say I ran away
I can't explain
The thoughts that drive me down
I don't know nobody
In this town

That night when I got home
The only thing that I knew was I wanted
To be with you
And baby blue
And I won't roam
Cause something deep down inside kick-started
To be with you
And baby blue

We played the Roxy
And drove down Sunset
And drank in the green room
And flew like rockets

It's in my heart
The only faith I've ever known
I play that part
I move through space and time
Even when I'm lonely
I walk that fine line

And I don't need nobody
To feed my fire
Yeah even when I'm lonely
I just let it ride

That night when I got home
The only thing that I knew was I wanted
To be with you
And baby blue
And I won't roam
Cause something deep down inside kick-started
To be with you
And baby blue

Throw Down #8 (top)

It's my sure sign
Come along any time
You got something you gotta show me
Swing around slowly

We were running for most of a day
And we're already three states away

Sometimes you wanna find
Someone so kind
If you know me
Don't be a phony

And the bodies groove to the show
And they shake and play rock and roll
And it made it into my brain
And it never can be the same

Whoa - I think he wanted us just to know
You can push on your own with nowhere to go
Whoa - And it's better just not to know
When you're loose and you're free and fun starts to flow
Don't take me home

Weekend with your friends
Stay till the day ends
Party at the Riverside
Hang time at the bottom line

And I zigzagged on my bike
Through traffic three lanes wide
And it faded into my brain
Got a feeling it's not the same - shock

Whoa - And he wanted us just to know
Ain't nothin' for free you pay as you go

Whoa - And it's better just not to know
But wherever it goes the fun starts to flow
Don't take me home

Night Scene (top)

Amazing hey - I
I can feel It - I
I've been around
No faking, no fake
I'm just dealing - I
I can feel It - I, oh yeah

No plans, hold hands
Fine, when you see right through me
Midnight dream night scene
I knew before
And I will again

I'm racing the race - I
I'm - with you for the ride
And listen now

I'm facing the face - I
I'm just dealing - I
I can feel it - I, oh yeah

Neon line
Night blind
Live, when you're coming to me
Midnight dream
Night scene
I knew before
And I will again

She's Back With Me (top)

My Maggie called I'm already on my way
And everybody else can wait for another day

So many people selling the same old lines
I'll really have to let them know at another time
Coming home, oh yeah, back home now

'Cause she is back with me
She's got my heart on the beat
And she's the only one I need
She's back with me

I can't forget the day Maggie drove away
And left me standing there in a summertime rain
Losing everything is so confusing
And all my phone calls - unreturned

I headed out to wander another night
When morning came I thought I was losing the fight
It felt like treason, but everybody knew the reason
you don't know what you've got till it's gone
...and blown away

The sympathetic people were all around
She never found a guy like me in another town
Yeah, Hey Maggie

She is back with me
She's got my heart on the beat
And she's the one I need
She's back with me

She is back with me
She's got my heart on the beat
And she's the one, the only one I need
She's back with me

Tonight In The Light (top)

It used to be easy now it's all over
I'm waking up early, waking up colder
I hope it's alright
Don't wanna fight
I wanted to tell you
I wanna get real and baby get closer

I think I can say I let the day go
I'm out on the road away from you and so
I hope it's alright, you wanna fight
I wanted to see you

And listen here
Don't wanna stare
Don't interfere
I didn't this time

And you're old enough to burn
You feel you missed your turn
And nobody wants to die
No reason why

I live in the past, the memories instead
And feeling alive, remember when we said
It's easy tonight, we're in the light
We're going to send you now

You run around
You're going out
Is this the thing
You think about

The magazine
The nicotine
It wanted you
And haunted you

And listen here
Don't wanna stare
Don't interfere
I didn't this time

And you're old enough to burn
You feel you missed your turn
And nobody wants to die
No reason why

So Surreal (top)

First time, in a dream
Feeling so serene
So real, so right, surreal, so tight
I just wanted to go

Friday night to the club gotta get into the scene
Roll downtown stretch wide in a limousine
Uninterrupted, corrupted like a freaky motor queen
Can you please find your way into my - hey know what I mean
Second time, I'm so free
I can feel a wave coming over me.
So real, so right, surreal, so tight
I just wanted to go

Solitary notion and emotional sense in you
Separation only non-invasive too
Every time, cause it's true
I can feel the weight pulling me to you
So real, so right, surreal, so tight
I just wanted to go
If I needed to, I might
I just wanted to go

Around (top)

Looks the same from the plane
White capped waves crashing on the shore
Yesterday on the land
I was killing time in the sand

Obvious as a touch
Over night I could see the light
Thirty-five thousand feet
Seven thousand miles away from home

You make me proud when I'm not around
Above the clouds
I can't come down
Around, around
I will be again
Around - throughout your life

Saturday slipped away
It's cars and hotel bars till I come home
I sent a postcard
It's not the same I hear you say
Sunday morning I'll hang-over with you

You make me proud when I'm not around
Above the clouds
I can't come down
Around, around
I will be again
Around - throughout your life

Pictures From The Road (top)

Just a patched up bus on a frozen road
A thousand Midwest miles still ahead, I'm told
I watched the snow and I wrote to you
And as my mind was wandering
I thought I heard your voice
I gotta say it's like
You're with me when I'm far away

And time apart is always hard
You should know
Day and night
I'm sending my love
And pictures from the road

In a window seat on a bumpy flight
You kept candles burning back at home all night
You thought of me and you said a prayer
And on the plane to Mexico
I felt your gentle touch
You'll never know how I -
I feel you everywhere I go

And time apart is always hard
You should know
Day and night
I'm sending my love
And pictures from the road

Oooh, and babe, tomorrow is another day
So sleep tonight
I'd better go, I'd better go, I'd better go
So try to dream and I'll be there
Before too long
Day and night
I send my love
And pictures from the road

Yeah you should know
Day and night
I'm sending my love
And pictures from the road

So sleep tonight
I'd better go, I'd better go, I'd better go
