SONG LYRICS - SWING OUT CHICAGO CD

Swing Out Chicago:

I can tell, I can tell, when I'm back home
I can tell, I can tell, when I'm back home
When you see me swinging baby, you know I'm back in Chicago
The streets of Chicago come alive for the young & old
Everybody's happy; they've all got hearts of gold
When I'm back in Chicago all my blues are gone
Swing out ... Swing out
Swing out ... Swing out
When I'm back in Chicago, all my blues are gone!

I can tell - I can tell, when I'm back home
I can tell - I can tell, when I'm back home
When you see me swinging baby, you know I'm back in Chicago
The streets of Chicago come alive for the young & old
Everybody's friendly, they've all got hearts of gold
When I'm back in Chicago all my blues are gone!
Swing out ... Swing out
Swing out ... Swing out
When I'm back in Chicago, all my blues are gone!

Maxwell Street:

Ever since I first met you baby I could see it in your eyes
Ever since I first met you girl - I could see it in your eyes
Because we've been together for so long
I didn't realize how much you meant to me - how much you meant to me

Over and over baby - you captured my heart
Over and over - you captured my heart
Cause we've been lovin' each other for so long now
Nothing in this world will ever tear us apart

We ain't gonna change now baby - no we ain't gonna change our ways now
We ain't gonna change our ways - no we ain't gonna change our ways now
Because we've been together for so long
I can't even remember the reasons why?

So long - lord you know I hate to say good bye
So long now - lord I hate to say good bye
Cause we've been together for so long
Our love won't even end until were dead and gone
No no no no, til were dead and gone!

So Hard To Say Goodbye
So Hard To Say Goodbye
It's so hard ... so hard to say goodbye
Because we've been loving' each other for so long
Our love won't even end until were dead and gone!

Alley Cat Blues:

She's always sneaking and she's peeping - all together weeping - the kind a girl that you wonder about?
Is it the drugs or the wine or the really good times - yeah, she looks so fine!
You know I see her in the clubs - - hanging out with stars

Cause she's my baby and I love her
She's got the Alley Cat Blues!

She's got a heart of stone and a house full of glass
A certain way about her that really kicks ass
Is it the money or the honey, yeah, she looks so good.
You know I see her in the hotels - - hanging out with stars

Cause she's my baby and I love her
She's got the Alley Cat Blues!

You know shes gonna be mine it's gonna take some time
You know shes gonna be mine it's gonna take some time
You know shes gonna be mine it's gonna take some time
You know shes gonna be mine it's gonna take some time

You know I see her in the fancy cars - hanging out with stars
Cause she's my baby and I love her
She's got the Alley Cat Blues!

Cause she's my baby and I love her
She's got the Alley Cat Blues!

I Should Have Known:

I should have known, long time ago
I should have known, a long time ago, that you were waiting for me baby and you would not let me go

Well you dropped down on me - Set my spirit free
Sweet tender loving women don't you walk out on me

Can't you see - What you're doing to me
Every time I see you coming I should have known you'd walk out on me - Let me be!

I used to say, when we first met
I used to say, when we first met, that you were the one for me baby and I would not let you go

Well you dropped down on me - Set my spirit free
Sweet tender loving women don't you walk out on me

Can't you see - What you're doing to me
Every time I see you coming I should have known you'd walk out on me - Let me be!

Halfway Home:


Well I'm halfway home and I never thought I'd be coming back
The city sure is beautiful but I'm far away from home
People stop and wonder, what its like to be free, can't they see
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!

See the babies grow up, standing tall and strong
See their parents struggling, trying to succeed
People stop and wonder, what its like to be free, can't they see
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!

Well now I'm halfway home and I never thought I'd be coming back
You know I've been here before and I've lived on the wrong side of the tracks
People stop and wonder, what its like to be free, can't they see
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!
Half day! Whole day! All night long, never gone see my baby,
cause she's gone!

Rolling Thunder:

Well it's the sound of rollin' thunder, rollin' down the road; it's the sound of country music and the rhythm of the road
Hey now baby / rhythm of the road
Yeah it's the sound of rollin' thunder, let me hear that engine moan!

Well you're free to ride and you ride to live, everybody's got a spirit, you can feel it in the wind
Hey now baby / you can feel it in the wind
Yeah it's the sound of rollin thunder, let me hear that engine moan!

Well I can feel it in my chest, burnin' rubber on the road; I can feel your heart beatin' baby, your half way home
Come on baby / half way home
Yeah it's the sound of rollin thunder, let me hear that engine moan!

Well it's the sound of rollin' thunder, rollin' down the road; it's the sound of rock n' roll music and the rhythm of the road
Yeah now baby / rhythm of the road (rollin down the road)
Yeah it's the sound of rollin thunder, let me hear that engine moan!

Well you're free to ride and you ride to live, everybody's getting revved up and there ready to go
Come on baby .. your ready to go

Yeah it's the sound of rollin thunder, let me hear that engine moan!
Yeah it's the sound of rollin thunder, let me hear that engine moan!
Yeah it's the sound of rollin thunder, let me hear that engine moan!

Can't Stop Time:

Well I'm losing my mind
I can't tell the time
Everybody thinks that there a friend of mine
But what you really don't know
Is which way to go?
Because I can't stop time / I can't stop time

When you think about where you're going
Pack it up and go!
When you get there, who will you know?
And when you walk away
What will you say?
Because I can't stop time / I can't stop time

All journeys have a beginning
All stories have an end
Some places look familiar and others just like Zen
But what you really don't know
Is which way to go?
Because I can't stop time / I can't stop time

Well it's a brand new day
Show me the way
Some people understand it, just like children at play
And when you cross the line
Is it so divine?
Because I can't stop time / I can't stop time

Shine So Bright:

Let's take it slow now baby, until the sky turns blue
Everything looks good now, the stars shine on you
The moon beams so bright - on you
The sun always shines - on you

You realize ... that you look so good
I try to tell you - but you don't look surprised
The moon beams so bright - on you
The sun always shines - on you

Get into the groove now baby, let it light shine on you
It feels just right now, like everything we do
The moon beams so bright - on you
The sun always shines - on you

The world revolves around you, I try to explain
But you run away and hide ... so I can't complain
The moon beams so bright - on you
The sun always shines - on you

The moon beams so bright - on you
The sun always shines - on you
The moon beams so bright - on you
The sun always shines - on you
