Here's a tale of Tom 

Who worked the railroads long

His wife would cook his meal

As he would change the wheel



Poor Tom, Seventh Son, Always knew what's goin on 

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom 

There ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom 



Worked for thirty years 

Sharing hopes and fears 

Dreamin' of the day 

He could turn and say 



Poor Tom, work's done, been lazin' out in the noonday sun 



Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom 



His wife wasAnnie Mae 

With any man a game she'd play

When Tom was out of town 

She couldn't keep her dress down 



Poor Tom, Seventh Son, always knew what's goin on 



Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom 



And so it was one day 

People got to Annie Mae (?) 

Tom stood, a gun in his hand 

And stopped her runnin' around 



Poor Tom, Seventh Son, gotta die for what you've done 



All those years of work are thrown away 

To ease your mind is that all you can say? 



But what about that grandson on your knee? 

Them railroad songs, Tom would sing to me



Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom 



Keep-a Truckin'

I can't quit you babe 

Woman I think I'm gonna put you down for a little while 

I can't quit you babe 

I... think I'm gonna put you down for a while 

I said you messed up my happy home 

Made me mistreat my only child 



You built my hopes so high 

Baby then you let me down so low 

You built my hopes so high then ya let me down... so low 

Don'tcha realize sweet baby? 

Woman I don't know... which way to go 



Woman I can't quit you babe 

I think I'm gonna put you down for a while

Ooh...know I  feel so strange looking out the door 

oooh...tryin hard to change but can't let go 

oooh...cryin' tears of pain and more and more 

oooh...everyday is the same as the one before 



I'm walkin the floor over you 

I'm walkin the floor 



Every heart that breaks is a heart that's cold 

To the hand that takes your dreamless soul



Ooh...Is it long to wait, is it much to pay? 

oooh...Sometimes it's hard waiting for the day.



you know it's hard. I said it's hard 

You know it's true. I said it's hard 

you know it's hard. You know it's true 



Every tear that falls is a smile that's lost

When you hear the call can you count the cost?

As you stand alone do you wonder how?

Can you step aside, does it matter now?



Every love that's changed ?-?-?-?-?-?

In the eye of the night  ?-?-?- 

In the day everything ?-?-?-? 

She was smilin' a tear at her waters fall ?? 



you know it's true. You know it's true now 



I'm walkin the floor over you 

I'm walkin' the floor 

Every tear that falls is a smile that's lost

When you hear the call can you count the cost?

As you stand alone do you wonder how?

Can you step aside, does it matter now?



Does it matter now? (repeat)

I hear ya knock on my door 

I ain't been saving this scene for ya honey 

Don't wantcha ringin my bell 

It's too late for you to be my honey 



ooh, it's my love

Don't want you wasting my time 

Tired of ya doing the things that you do 

It's no use standing in line 

Follow the line, you better follow queue 



I say, ooooh, it's my love 

oooh, it's my own true love (X2) 



I could sail a river run dead, but I know it's dead

I could I wish for a million, yeah. But I know it's dead

I could cry within the darkness, I sail away 

I save a lifetime forever

But you know, you know, you know what I say 



And I say Ooh, it's my love 

Oooh, it's my own true love (repeat)

Darlene, oooh Darlene, oooh Darlene,

When I see you on the street, it makes my heart go flitter 

I see you walkin with all those guys 

It makes me feel so sick 



And I don't care what people say 

And I don't care what they do 

Sweet child I gotta make you mine 

You're the only thing that I want: You! 

Baby Baby when you walk down the block,

Cause I love Darlene, I gotta love 'er, Yes I do 

I've been savin all my money 

I've been workin all day long 

I gotta give it all back to you!

It starts out like a murmur 

Then it grows like thunder 

Until it bursts inside of you 

Try to hold it steady 

Wait until you're ready 

Any second now will do 

Throw the door wide open 

Not a word is spoken 

Anything that you want to do 



Ya know, ya know, ya know... 



Don't you feel the same way? 

Don't you feel the same way? 

But you don't know what to do 

No time for hesitatin' 

Ain't no time for hesitatin' 

All you got to do is move 

They say you're feeling blue, well 

I just found a cure 

It's a thing you gotta do, yeah 



Ya know, ya know, ya know... 



Now listen: You say your body's aching? 

I know that it's aching 

Chill bumps come up on you 

Yeah, the funny fool 

I love the funny fool 

?Just like foolin' after school? 

And then you ask for mediciation 

Who cares for medication 

When you've worn away the cure 



Ya know, ya know, ya know... 

Go back to the country 

Yeah, go back to the country 

Feel a change is good for you 

When you keep convincin' 

Ah, don't keep convincin' 

What's that creeping up behind a you? 

It's just an old friend 

It's just an old friend 

And what's that he's got for you? 



Ya know, ya know, ya know... 



Do your dance do your dance do your dance 

Oooooh, medication. Medication! Medication!
