Viva Los Angeles
Push it over the line
Push it one more time
Baby that's love
Got to get down or lay down
Put a notch in your belt
And then cinch it tight
Someone might say
That isn't healthy or sane
It's so easy to find you
On the avenue of damn straight
You betta get you some
While you here
Viva Los Angeles
Livin' where the fools gold
Looks like sunshine
I couldn't tell you
I know the difference
Even your children know
This is where the hustlers
Go to get it
I hope you find
Whatever you're lookin' for
As a matter of fact
Yes I like it like
Like it like that
Sound of the city
Drownin' me
Yes it's cold and it's dark
Drivin' down the boulevard
Of broken dreams
Somebody help me say
Anybody help me say

You Make Me So Right

You Make Me So Right
I remember seeing your face
Then I moved into a different space
You were comfortable and
I was glass half-full and
Now I'm oh so sure that you were made for me
Baby
You make me so right
I'm not interested in "out there"
Ever since you were my lady fair
Lets take all the time we
Need to let it wind out
I'm so glad I found out everything you are
Baby
You make me so right
Till we are covered in our past
Tell me why it couldn't help but last
You were cautionary
I was so contrary
I'm on top and I won't ever let this go
Darlin'
You make me so right

Stung By Degrees
Bags on my feet
Hedonist, awful hours in awe
I'm on the street
Hearing the marching orders come
Stung by degrees
The what, the all, the I, the of
Stung by degrees
Ever, ever, ever, ever
Evidently
She knows they all submit to her
Into the fire
Come on, come on, come on, come on
When I can feel
Beautifulness, I bow before you
I'm on the wheel
Bringing me back, the pendulum swings
When I can feel
This is the world I'm in

Woman

Woman
A September song
Was all we had
The last time you looked upon me with love
Now it's January cold
And I am all alone
With my memories, fading on, fading on
Take this war love from out my chest
I don't wanna feel no more
Take this soul love
You own it evermore
Woman
I can't know another
The days are so tired
The days of summer are gone
Lips torn against each other
Words twisted into heart-shaped boxes
We of movie kisses
She a living movement, an actress in three parts
One part wine, one part sugar, one part razor
Wit and sharply barbed tongue
Wired fence I could not get through nor escape
Help, he thought, as he lay in bed for the 16th year in a row
I cannot break free
I shall die here a prisoner
Committing crimes to return behind bars
A helpless recidivist
Please, please say those words one more time
Just once more before I have to leave you
He wakes up in an empty house and thinks, help
There is no turning back
The only thing he could have done was the wrong thing
Saving himself was the wrong thing
When she left him with nothing but the promise of her love
He climbed her saffron peaks again and again
Falling, climbing, falling she said
Don't leave, I need you
And so he moved out into the world
To make money among strangers
All the dark survival smelling like rejection
He knew in the end she would hate him
So she wrote him one more poem
And made love to him the day he returned
Little did he know, it would be the last time
But hadn't it always been this way
Hadn't every time felt like the last time

Slow Ride
Slow ride with you mama
Leaves on the ground blow due west
My whole wold is complete
Warm within the circumference of your mouth
I can't afford to lose myself again
It took me everything I had to find it
Fading into all I've known
Fate is everywhere we've gone
Waiting low and long
I'm telling you now
Knew that this day would become
Else I never sorted you out, never could
Symptom of my wish to make it plain
Slow ride with me

All Night Long
Temple to your heart next to my bed
We will devote
Hours in spice
Shy, you opened to my touch
Now I could spend all day drifting on clouds
You blew my way
Indeed, my butterfly
Keep your sweet name in my mouth
All night long
Precious enfolding
Bring me joy, infatuating
Yeah, you are the sun come unto me
All night long
Oh sugar, my sweetbread
Hold me close like you do
Just me and you
All night long
Baby come home to me
Why not, why not bless us both without reserve
Everything I can give is everything you deserve
I make sure I stay gently on your plane
Gently say your name
Come on lady, I won't play no games wit ya
Make exchange wit ya, change and bend
That's how life is in the end
We stay friends even when golden years amend our fire
Girl, I can't much, baby, we can't get much,
Honey, I can't get much, lover, we can't get much
Higher
Sugar, my sweetbread
Hold me close like you do
Just me and you
All night long
Absently I wander through hours
Your on my mind
Everything new
Won't you take me down with you
All night long
Tried to wave it off
Child, you know I can't help it when
You say that this is us
All night long
Oh sugar, my sweetbread
Hold me close like you do
Just me and you
All night long
Te quero, come on

Strange Conversation (Ted Hawkins)
I had a strange conversation
My baby called me on phone
She said your next lover's gonna be the blues
Cause baby I'm gonna be gone
They's gonna be dark as the night
Then things won't be going just right
Dearest the one, queen on your throne
Don't ever leave me alone
Cause without your touch
Darlin', I'd have no love
I'd have no love
That's why I wanna say baby, baby, baby
Longing to hold you near
Can't you hear, and all the sweet things
I wanna whisper in your ear
Because love is gone and the only thing you
Got to do girl, is come on home baby please
Where you belong
Why I gotta say, baby, baby, baby

Altogether Better
From the first day that I
Laid eyes on you
Can't lie to you
I knew that you were such a fine person
You were made for me
We chose we
Each other for each other
Now take me
Exposed to you
You know that I
Can't stop thinkin' bout ya
Lover we'll make it
Unbreak it
We'll slow dance
Inside of each other
Sugar I'm altogether better where u are
I may not be around but I'm not far
Honey don't you know I'm happy underneath your magic spell
I know I shall be yours until that bell
Now it evolves into
This blessing
No I'm not playing
Now you're everything that I expected
You're my precious
My message
You can tell me anything baby I'll follow
You always
Enthrall me
10 feet taller I'm standing you can
Call it what you want but now I want you more than
Anything

Strong Medicine
Your love is August under my skin
I can't resolve just where I fell in
With your refrain my motion begins
Woman don't you talk me down from your spell
I may need to take everything on your shelf
Lover you're strong medicine
Medicine
Medicine
Your love is Georgia red clay and song
I can't get right so let me be wrong
I moan and lead with anticipation
I may need to double up on my dosage
Mother me won't you I need you close
Lover you're strong medicine
Medicine
Medicine
One taste on my tongue woman I need a drop so
I can get better

Sugafied
Sweet as any other word
That you could say to me and I'm
Hungry for the sound, now I'm found
Made, I made it back to you
Now take me all the way sugar
Here I'm in your clear atmosphere
Where, my sin is lost
Only if it is half-faded
Oh Suga'f'I can make you come
Say you will, say you will
These hours marking only time
Between our love and what we're gonna do about it
Where my sin is lost
Only if it is half-faded
Oh Suga'f'I can make you stay
Say you will
