(R. Stewart, K. Savigar) 

On a hot summer's night 
In the year of '75
Jimmy Doyle took his child bride 
Amanda, for a drive
She was only seventeen 
He just lived to see her smile
Their commitment to each other 
Burned like a forest fire

Otis on the radio singing "Stand By Me"
As a trooper pulled them over
And said Jimmy where you been
Someone matching your description
Has just robbed the liquor store
Amanda said "He's been with me"
But they weren't listening anymore

Down at Precinct Number Five 
They questioned Jimmy through the night
The sheriff said "He's gotta stand trial"
Armed robbery is the charge
Amanda said "This cannot be"
Gonna stay right here until you set him free

And I love him
Here to eternity
Forever 
Unto eternity
Oh God gave me something 
I must hold on to
Gonna hold on him
No matter what you do

The old courthouse was crowded
As the judge reviewed the case 
In a year of re-election
He was desperate to impress 
Innocent or guilty
He saw an opportunity
To send Jimmy down for life 
To the Penitentiary

Disbelief and anger
As they dragged him away
In a cell below the courthouse
They beat him like a slave
But his use of martial arts
Struck a blow for liberty
Felled a guard with a fist of iron
And killed him instantly

All the press surrounded Amanda
Coming down the courthouse steps
Pleading for her young man's life
And in a moment seen by millions
She bowed her head and cried
Show my man some mercy
He's the father of my child

I love him
Here to eternity
Forever 
Unto eternity
Oh God gave me something 
I must hold on to
Gonna hold on him
No matter what you do 
I love him
Here to eternity

Jimmy Doyle appeared again
In a second public trail
For the murder of a prison guard
They sentenced him to die
But Amanda with her long red hair
Made one last plea
As the court fell into silence
She cried out desperately

This man of mine is innocent
As one day I shall prove
It's an open case of self defense
All this circumstantial evidence
You place before your court
Has robbed me of my husband
Forget I will not

I love him
Here to eternity
Forever 
Unto eternity
Oh goodbye my Jimmy 
'Til we meet again
In a better world than this
I swear I'll clear your name
'Cos I love you
Here to eternity

. . .


(B. Adams, J. Vallance, R. Stewart, R. Wayne)

I told you once I'm a jealous man
But you never want to listen to who I am
We're divided, completely out of touch
I guess that's why we seem to fight so much

Believe me darling this ain't no game
If you think I'll be your fool 
You better think again
I know you love me 
It just ain't right
I'm sick and tired of fighting 
with you every night

You say you don't wanna hurt me
But you're doing things I can't explain
Oh baby, why don't you leave me
Because I know you'll never change

It's only another heartache
Ain't nothing to worry about
Something I'm getting used to
Dragging my heart around
But one day soon
And it won't be long
Gonna find me an angel to carry me home
It's only another heartache
Ain't nothing to worry about

I'll find a honey to take a chance
And roll that dice into my past
She'll cover me for a little while
And show me love ain't out of style

I don't care how long it takes
My heart's in the hands of fate
Oh God I ain't asking much
Just a woman that I can trust

It's only another heartache
Ain't nothing to worry about
Something I'm getting used to
Dragging my heart around
Oh but one day soon
And it won't be long
Gonna find me an angel to carry me home
It's only another heartache
Ain't nothing to worry about

I wanna love that's strong and real
I gotta know just how it feels
Somebody to share my life
To hold onto through the night

It's only another heartache
Nothing to worry about
Something I'm getting used to
Dragging my heart around
It's only another heartache
Nothing to worry about
Something I may get used to
Dragging my heart around

. . .


(R. Stewart)

Sixteen years old, looking for a hideaway
I'm a set designer, my Mum and Dad 
thinking I'm gay
I'm a lazy bugger, but I like my sport
Like girls and music, I'm happy, happy sort 
(of a guy)

But there's one thing I'm lacking 
it's sexual experience
So I ask you, my sweetheart 
save me from this wilderness

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this

Where I come from, love is 
just a hole in the wall
And the steel mills ring out and generations 
heed the call
And the rain never stops and the skies are grey
And the chance of romance 
slim as a bright sunny day

This is partly the reason 
I'm so overwhelmed and shy
Because your beauty, by contrast 
is gonna make a young man cry

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this
I've schemed, honey, of a night like this
You don't know what it means to a boy from 
a suburban home
To be left with a woman like you 
completely alone

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this

Nice place you've got here, babe
never seen a house like this
Pool like an ocean, bed like a football pitch
All the guys at the boozer, won't believe my luck
But it couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke 
(than me)

So here we are, the record's 
gotten stuck in the groove
My knees are trembling, c'mon baby, make a move

I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this
I've schemed, honey, of a night like this
I've dreamed, I've schemed, honey 
of a night like this
I've dreamed, honey, of a night like this

(The Rise And Fall Of A Budding Gigolo)
(R. Stewart, K. Savigar, J. Davis)

Well I arrived on time
My courduroy suit and me bottle of wine
There were women wall to wall 
It's Saturday night and I wanted them all 
everyone

Sidled up for a dance
I tried a new step and fell in the plants
I told a joke, about the Pope
It wasn't as funny as I would've hoped

Nobody told me she was the daughter 
of the mayor
I was so embarrassed, I just wished the 
ground would swallow me up
Accidentally my elbow hit the record player
The rock 'n' roll stopped 
and everybody just stared
(oh no)

Who's gonna take me home
I'm tired and I wanna go to bed
Who's gonna take me home
This party's gone right to my head

I didn't worry, not me
Panic ain't in my vocabulary
Smashed beyond reproach
Suddenly I wanted to take off my clothes

All hell broke loose
I started to take off my trousers and shoes
And so I tried to look cool
I stepped back and fell in the pool

The hostess helped me out 
and asked for my dismissal
I said I was sorry, but I've been under so much pressure just lately, baby 
I felt as popular as a Russian guided missile
The last thing I remember, I left with a girl on a motor bike
That weighed three hundred pounds and what's wrong with that

Who's gonna take me home
I'm tired and I wanna go to bed
Who's gonna take me home
This party's gone right to my head to my head

I woke up on the floor
Still in my suit and she told me I snored
I never felt so cheap
I had a good laugh at the size of her feet

Holy Moses, I don't like this single living
I think I'll find me a nice local girl and settle on down, now
With a home and a garden and a nature quite forgiving
Then again maybe I'll just hang around

Who's gonna take me home
I'm tired and I wanna go to bed, right now
Who's gonna take me home
This party's gone right to my head to my head
Now who's gonna take me home
Hey Brian could you give me a lift 'cos I don't live too far from you, boy
Mary c'mon I've known you so long please give me a lift home, oh c'mon
Jim oh c'mon boys would you just give me a lift home
I don't live too far from here and I'm so tired

. . .


(R. Stewart, J.Cregan, K.Savigar)

I met her in a little French cafe
Legs like a young giraffe
She was sitting reading Baudelaire
Not exactly working class

She had a studio in St. Michel
Crucifix around her waist
Che Guevara all over the wall
She can't stand the sun on her face

Hey boys, what a look
Stop a train at fifty feet
Matching hair, matching clothes and eyes
Kinda like a tiger in heat
Red hot in black
Red hot in black

Revolution running through her veins
A radical from head to toe
The only record that she ever played
Was "just like a rolling stone"

We started talking by the candlelight
Her lips get closer to mine
We started dancing all around the room
Helped by a bottle of wine

Hey boys, mystery
Didn't even know her name
One night in Paris, with a girl like that
Never going home again
Red hot in black
Red hot in black

Oh my, when I woke up
She'd already gone out to her work
My head was aching and my back was scratched
I've never, never, never known a night like that

Took a walk along the avenue
So in love and so confused
My plane was leaving in half an hour
What would you have done in my shoes?

Hey boys, so you see
Couldn't get her outa my head
My regards to the folks back home
Gonna spend some time with red
Red hot in black
Red hot in black

. . .


(Theme from LEGAL EAGLES)
(M. Chapman, H. Knight, G. Black)

Oh, baby, I don't know why
But somehow I always seem to
Get tangled up in my pride
But oh, baby, we're not that blind
Deep down inside you know
This love's worth one more try
Don't push it all aside

'Cos I wanna be good for you 
I didn't mean to be bad
But darlin' I'm still the best
That you ever had
Just give me a chance
To let me show you how much
I wanna give you my love touch 
love touch

Why can't I climb your walls
And find somewhere to hide
Can't I knock down your door
And drag myself inside
I'll light your candles baby
And maybe I'll light your life
I wanna feel the breathless end
You come to every night
This ever changing love
Is pushing me too far
I feel the need to reach you
Right now wherever you are
These empty arms are getting stronger

Every day
Believe me baby
They won't let you get away
No, they won't let you get away

'Cos I wanna be good for you
I didn't mean to be bad
But darlin' I'm still the best
That you ever had
Just give me a chance
To let me show you how much
I wanna give you my love touch 
love touch

You know it don't matter
Who's right who's wrong
Think we're gonna find out
If the love is strong
Just give me a chance
To win back your trust
I wanna give you my love touch 
love touch
(Oh you're gonna get a, oh you're gonna 
get a big love touch)

. . .


(F. Miller, T. Seals, E. Setser, R. Stewart)

The mystery of you and me
Is coloured blue on blue
We wanted more than we could give
We couldn't see it through

You won't believe these words from me
But still they're mine to say
I will always love you 
In my own crazy way

I tried to keep my sanity
By being someone else
Someone that you could hold on to
I only fooled myself

I knew the part, but in my heart
The role I couldn't play
But I will always love you
In my own crazy way

I know I didn't do the little things
That could make a woman's heart sing 
forgive me
And darling if I brought you any pain
I'm trying to explain
In my heart, I was always true

The memories of you and me
Are written on the wind
And sometimes, girl, I'd give the world
To do it all again

And if you need to call me 
I won't be far away
I will always love you 
In my own crazy way

. . .


(R. Stewart, K. Savigar)

Through these misty eyes 
I see lonely skies
Lonely road to Babylon

Where's my family
And my country
Heaven knows where I belong

Pack my bags tonight
Here's one Jacobite
Who must leave or surely die

Put me on a train
In the pouring rain 
Say farewell but don't say goodbye

Chorus:
Seagull carry me, over land and sea
To my own folk, that's where I want to be
Every beat of my heart
Tears me further apart
I'm lost and alone in the dark
I'm going home

One more glass of wine
Just for auld lang syne
And the girl I left behind

How I miss her now 
In my darkest hour
And the way our arms entwine

Chorus

And we'll drink a toast
To the blood red rose
Cheer a while the Emerald Isle

And to the northern lights
And the swirling pipes
How they make a grown man cry

Chorus

. . .


(R. Stewart, K. Savigar, T. Brock)

The wind cries on the boardwalk
Oh God, it's cold tonight
Somewhere in the city
Someone's holding her tight

He's telling her she's beautiful
Touching her long blond hair
He's found out all the secrets
We swore we'd never share

Oh, it drives me crazy
To think of her with him
Come back, baby
Come back home again

Chorus:
Ten days of rain
Ten days of rain
My heart is filled with pain
Will she ever come back again?
Ten days of rain

She said I'm tired of talking
Trying to get it through to you
You never tell me you love me
That's all I want you to do

I thought we had a future
Something to hold on to
We even talked of children
Something I never do

She loved me like no other
She held me like a child
Come back baby, come back home again

Chorus

The thought of her still haunts me
Her voice is everywhere
Ten days of rain
Ten days of rain

I can hear the freight train whistle
I can hear the church bells toll
But telephone line, when it's off the hook
That's the loneliest sound of 'em all

In the letter that she wrote me
Before she went away
She said darling, always remember
Love ain't a hard word to say

Ten days of rain
Ten days of rain, such pain
Will she ever come back again
I don't know, I don't know
Come back baby, I'm so lonely baby
Ten days of rain, ten days of rain
Is it raining all, raining all
Raining all over this world

. . .


(J. Lennon, P. McCartney)

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some are gone and some remain
Oh these places had their meanings
With lovers and friends, I still recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one, compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love, as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I've loved you more

. . .
