1. FEARLESS BLUES

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)

I don't fear darkest night
I was born, born to fight
I am fearless fearless fearless, yeah yeah
inside out
I won't leave leave leave
a single doubt

I can stand shaky ground
I won't moan, moan and cry
I am fearless fearless fearless
for another round
I won't make make make a single sound

I don't fear bumpy ride
I won't run, run and hide, no
I am fearless fearless fearless
my oh my
I will reach reach reach
the higher ground

I don't fear cloudy skies
won't pretend, won't disguise, no
I am fearless fearless fearless
tell no lies
I'll keep my eyes eyes eyes
on the prize

I won't hush for what I know is right
I won't give up 'for I speak it out yeah
I am fearless fearless fearless
this time around
and I'll keep my own own own
peace of mind

I'll take you by surprise
while I walk same old ground
and stay fearless fearless fearless
without a bound
I'll keep you safe, I'll keep you safe
safe 'n sound

 

2. COUNT ME IN

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP) 

If you're looking for some action
Or just way to pass the time
Looking for adventure
Or a partner in crime
A part time lover
you know it ain't no sin
I never said that you should but baby
You can count me in

Put me on the scene of the crime
let's hit every joint in town
Roll the dice and roll the cash
Till the sun goes down
I'll put my cards on the table
Lord knows I'm bout to win
I never said that you should but baby
You can count me in

Just one last for the road
Make it 'one to go'
pop one for the supper you know
my pulse is running slow
light one up for the sinner
water it down with gin
never said that you should but baby
you can count me in

We'll borrow someone's crib for the night
down on Rampart street
while you make your way over the balcony
I'll call some folks you've got to meet
work out the switch for the stereo
serve some good ole gin
wanna do some living on the edge
than baby you can count me in

 

3. UNCONDITIONAL

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP) 

Do you remember the time
way back in the day
when you were just right for me
and I was enough for you
back when our love use to be
Unconditional

When no questions were asked
no reasons to doubt
but an absolute truth
that's what it was all was about
back when love use to be
Unconditional

With no intention to change
the initial thrill
spend hours to inhale
the irresistible you
back when love used to be
Unconditional

Yeah, back when our love used to be
Unconditional

 

4. RESET REWIND

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)

All over, time to time,
there's that moment again,
simple truth that I have
fills my chest with pain,
keeps pushing me back and
keeps pulling me down
just like I don't belong in here
like I never did

Lined up all those questions
that need the answer now
captain's lost, I know damn well
the time is gonna come
misty reality
always down to be
something I ran from as fast as I can
but it's running back at me

It's that time again
to call on my old friend
need him to remind me
who I was back then
all those dreams I had
that seemed so divine
I simply wanna reset cause I
know I can't rewind

Lord, let me reset cause I
I know I can't rewind
I wanna reset cause I
I know I can't rewind

6. BUSINESS AS USUAL

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP) MARK VAN MEURS (BUMA/STEMRA)

We talk about the weather
listen to the blues
make love in the dark
watch the evening news

business as usual
but the feeling ain't right

We go to work
get the kids to school
make plans for tonight
we're playing it cool

business as usual
but the feeling ain't right

If these walls could talk
they'd have nothing to say
we're leaving all the love on the table
each night and day

I honestly can't tell baby
where the feeling has gone
should we work it out,
should we work it out
or just leave it alone

 

7. YOUR LOVE AIN'T REAL

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP)

Your love ain't real
don't get any closer
Your love ain't real
don't get any closer

now that she's gone and all about you and her is set aside
now I'm here to save your soul from the everlasting desire
let me be the first to let you know- you're set back down and out
your love ain't real

your love ain't real
don't wanna let it happen
your love ain't real
don't wanna let it happen

now that I'm your only one, your true love and desire
You no longer wanna take it slow, lust burns out like fire
and why would I wanna go and make the same mistake again?
love ain't real

Oh oh yeah oh oh yeah your love ain't real

 

8. WORK SONG

OSCAR BROWN JR., NAT ADDERLY (BMI)

Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

Breaking rocks and serving my time

Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

Because they done convicted me of crime

Hold it steady right there while I hit it

Well I reckon that I'm ought to get it

Been working and working

But I still got so terribly far to go


I committed crime lord I needed

Crime of being hungry and poor

I left the grocery store man breathing

When they caught me robbing his store

Hold it steady right there while I hit it

Well I reckon that I'm gonna to get it

Been working and working

But I still got so terribly far to go


Gonna see my sweet honey baby

Gonna break this chain off to run

Gonna lay down somewhere shady

Lord sure it's hot in the sun

Hold it steady right there while I hit it

Well I reckon that I'm gonna get it

Been workin’ and workin’

But I still got so terribly far to go

 

9. SUMMER RAIN

ANA POPOVIC (ASCAP), MARK VAN MEURS (BUMA/STEMA)

Summer dresses in the rain
Cold drops warm skin
Revealing curves
Unexpected

Hasty cover make your move
it's time to stretch
the afternoon

Smiling faces
share the thrill
Set your mind on
another refill

A glance before it starts to pour
plates on the move
table sheets on the
dance floor

It's a free ride to nowhere on a nonstop train
baby tell me can you stand the strain
like there was no tomorrow
and nothing's in your way
I say let the time
let the time sustain

Sweet sweet summer rain

harmless flirt wish you could stay
total strangers
safely sheltered away

breeze turns into the wind
rain grows cold
on the naked skin

it's a free ride to nowhere on a nonstop train
baby tell me can you stand the strain
like there was no tomorrow
and nothing's in your way
I say let the time
let the time sustain

Sweet sweet summer rain

You forget about your sorrow
You forget about your pain
You forget about tomorrow
in that summer rain

 

10. VOODOO WOMAN

CORA TAYLOR (BMI)

They call me the voodoo woman
And I know the reason why
They call me the voodoo woman
And I know the reason why
Lord if I raise my name
You know the sky begin to cry

They call me the voodoo woman
I look through water and spied by land
They call me the voodoo woman
I look through water and spied by land
I tell all you people if your woman got another man

I got a rabbit foot in my pocket, a toad frog in my shoes
A craw fish on my shoulder, lookin' dead at you
I got dust from a rattlesnake and a black spider bone
If that don't do it baby, you'd better leave it all alone

Voodoo woman
And I know the reason why
Lord if I raise my name
You know the sky begin to cry

 

11. ONE ROOM COUNTRY SHACK

MERCY WALTON (BMI)

I'm sitting here thousand miles from nowhere
people I'm in one room little country shack
I'm sitting here thousand miles from nowhere
people I'm right here in my one room country little shack
all my worries and companion
is a old ten foot cotton sack

I'm gonna leave early in the morning
people because I'm 'bout to go out of my mind
I'm gonna leave early in the morning
can you tell
I'm about to go out of my dog gone mind
I'm gonna find me some kind of good man
even if he's dumb, deaf, crippled or blind

you don't know
you don't know how I feel
you don't know, babe,
you don't know how I feel
I know you're out there having a good time
why don't you make a nice suggestion
cut me some kind a good deal?

so many ways
so many way you can get the blues
so many ways, yeah
so many way, so many ways you can get the blues
yeah, when down here on one of these cotton fields
Lord, you ain't got nothing to lose.

 

12. SOULFULL DRESS

MAURICE McALISTER, TERRY VAIL (BMI) 

I'm gonna put on my dress
with that slip way up one side
with that tight thin waist
and that low neck line
Lord I'm going to the party
gonna have some fun
gonna shake and shout untill the
morning come
if you wanna keep your man
you better get as sharp as you can
I'll be at my best and i'll put on my
Soulful dress

I'm gonna put on my dress
that hits me way above my knees
with that V cut back
and these straps instead of sleeves
Lord, I'm going to the party
Mmm, looking' good
I'm gonna shake everybody
Like I knew I would
don't you girls go getting' jealous
if I round up all your fellas
I'll be at my best when I put on my
Soulful dress
