1. Last night the winds blew cold again I was wanting to be sheltered and warm I thought about our lives together Hope that we can steer more clearly Away from harm ~chorus~ Good morning sunshine Makes us feel fine Good morning sunshine Everything's gonna be alright Everything's alright 2. Keep your eyes out on the coastline There's a boat full of roses on its way to you Keep your calendar open There's so many things That we just got to do ~chorus~ Good morning sunshine Makes us feel fine Good morning sunshine Everything's gonna be alright It's alright - instrumental break -

1. Walking down that dusty street Something's not quite right Gonna visit the gypsy in the middle of the night 2. Gypsy says you got no future Used it all up You're just broken pieces now of some kind of empty cup 3. So you stumble back onto the street Do what you think you must But you're just a junky in the corner Gathering dust Walking down that dusty street There's something not quite right

Good Times 04:49
1. When we're togehter Time is still like a statue Gold and rose, linen and silk Thinking and dreaming Bathing our feet in milk ~chorus~ We'll let the good times roll Yeah the good times roll 2. We were hitchhiking Took a ride in a chocolate brown Nova Went for coffee Clouds of cream Looked like video from weather satellites ~chorus~ We'll let the good times roll Yeah the good times roll 3. I would like to get to know you Imagine the incense smoke Is scrolling slowly in the morning sunlight ~chorus~ We'll let the good times roll Yeah the good times roll 4. In the office tower I hear the sound of papers shuffling Heels clicking on cement Mouths slurping hot coffee Whispers in confidence ~chorus~ Where'd all the good times go? We coulda let them roll 5. Alone again It was a sad and rainy day At the carnival by the beach See the bathroom graffitti quoting William Burroughs Storm the reality factory Take back the universe ~chorus~ We'll let the good times roll Yeah the good times roll 6. Life is a gift And the gift must move Circulate this air This blood and this sound ~chorus~ We'll let the good times roll Yeah the good times roll We'll let the good times roll We'll let the good times roll

Red Room 06:46
1. I drove 2,000 miles Just to be with you Then I found out Part of you didn't want me to That was the part Wanted to be alone So like a fool I turned around Drove all those miles home ~chorus~ From your Red Room After dark Way on up in your red room Next to the park 2. After a while You called me on the phone You said that you wanted To come on back home Said you were tired of being alone I said why don't you Come on back home ~chorus~ From your Red Room After dark Way on up in your red room Next to the park -bridge- ~chorus~ Up in your Red Room After dark Way on up in your red room Next to the park

Security 04:31
Security can be a cup of tea in a warm room Sleepin' in your own bed with your sweetheart next to you Or seeing people on the street who greet you as you pass by Cause you know each other even if you can't remember why To walk on a hot summer night Down the streets of your town See the tvs, hear the people Though the shades are down Relaxed in the warmth as you glide down familiar ways Gliding quietly as the night birds dive and play Building, collecting, and buying We get many things To look at, learn from, add on to Until there's no more Where are the roots and whose are the fruits to enjoy We've lost the happiness - children's delight That makes every object a toy Security can be a cup of tea in a warm room Sleepin' in your own bed with your sweetheart next to you Or seeing people on the street who greet you as you pass by Cause you know each other even if you can't remember why

1. The sky was full of stars Last night was warm The fog horn still sounded No reason for that alarm Woke up this morning The bay was full of fog Still grey now But there's the wagging tail of the neighbor's dog ~chorus~ Life take good care Of you and me Life Take good care of me 2. It's charming grand flourishes and cute little ornaments They might irritate the desperate Agitate dement They will reach no one for any good thing Cause there's no heart in it It's just a bell that now and then rings ~chorus~ Life takes good care Of you and me Life Death is not our enemy -harmonica break- ~chorus~ Life takes good care Of you and me Death is not our enemy Teach me humility The sky was full of stars Last night was warm
